The Role of 5G Technologies in a Smart City: The Case for Intelligent Transportation System
Authors: Gohar Ali , Nencioni Gianfranco
Published: May 2021

A smart city is an urban area that collects data using various electronic methods and sensors. Smart cities rely on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and aim to improve the quality of services by managing public resources and focusing on comfort, maintenance, and sustainability. The fifth generation (5G) of wireless mobile communication enables a new kind of communication network to connect everyone and everything. 5G will profoundly impact economies and societies as it will provide the necessary communication infrastructure required by various smart city applications. Intelligent Transporting System (ITS) is one of the many smart city applications that can be realized via 5G technology. The paper aims to discuss the impact and implications of 5G on ITS from various dimensions. Before this, the paper presents an overview of the technological context and the economic benefits of the 5G and how key vertical industries will be affected in a smart city, i.e., energy, healthcare, manufacturing, entertainment, and automotive and public transport. Afterward, 5G for ITS is introduced in more detail.

Published: May 2021

Biochar, an alkaline carbonaceous substance resulting from the thermal pyrolysis of biomass, reportedly enhances the micronutrient availability in acidic soils with little or no effect on alkaline soils. In this study, biochars were produced from poultry manure (PM) at 350 °C and 550 °C (BC350 and BC550 respectively). The acidified biochars (ABC350 and ABC550, respectively) were incorporated into an alkaline sandy soil, and their effects on the soil micronutrients (Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn) availability, and CO2–C efflux were investigated in a 30-day incubation study. The treatments (PM, BC350, BC550, ABC350, and ABC550) were administered in triplicate to 100 g soil at 0%, 1%, and 3% (w/w). Relative to the poultry manure treatment, acidification drastically reduced the pH of BC350 and BC550 by 3.13 and 4.28 units, respectively, and increased the micronutrient availability of the studied soil. Furthermore, the biochars (both non-acidified and acidified) reduced the CO2 emission compared to that of the poultry manure treatment. After 1% treatment with BC550 and ABC550, the CO2 emissions from the soil were 89.6% and 91.4% lower, respectively, than in the 1% poultry manure treatment. In summary, acidified biochar improved the micronutrient availability in alkaline soil, and when produced at higher temperature, can mitigate the CO2 emissions of soil carbon sequestration.
Counting the Ideals with a Given Genus of a Numerical Semigroup with Multiplicity Two
Authors: Moreno-Frías M. A. , Rosales José Carlos
Published: May 2021

Let S and T be two numerical semigroups. We say that T is an I(S)-semigroup if T∖{0} is an ideal of S. Given k a positive integer, we denote by Δ(k) the symmetric numerical semigroup generated by {2,2k+1}. In this paper we present a formula which calculates the number of I(S)-semigroups with genus g(Δ(k))+h for some nonnegative integer h and which we will denote by i(Δ(k),h). As a consequence, we obtain that the sequence {i(Δ(k),h)}h∈N is never decreasing. Besides, it becomes stationary from a certain term.
On the Carathéodory Form in Higher-Order Variational Field Theory
Authors: Urban Zbyněk , Volná Jana
Published: May 2021

The Carathéodory form of the calculus of variations belongs to the class of Lepage equivalents of first-order Lagrangians in field theory. Here, this equivalent is generalized for second- and higher-order Lagrangians by means of intrinsic geometric operations applied to the well-known Poincaré–Cartan form and principal component of Lepage forms, respectively. For second-order theory, our definition coincides with the previous result obtained by Crampin and Saunders in a different way. The Carathéodory equivalent of the Hilbert Lagrangian in general relativity is discussed.
Structural Insights into the Respiratory Syncytial Virus RNA Synthesis Complexes
Authors: Cao Dongdong , Gao Yunrong , Liang Bo
Published: May 2021

RNA synthesis in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a negative-sense (−) nonsegmented RNA virus, consists of viral gene transcription and genome replication. Gene transcription includes the positive-sense (+) viral mRNA synthesis, 5′-RNA capping and methylation, and 3′ end polyadenylation. Genome replication includes (+) RNA antigenome and (−) RNA genome synthesis. RSV executes the viral RNA synthesis using an RNA synthesis ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, comprising four proteins, the nucleoprotein (N), the large protein (L), the phosphoprotein (P), and the M2-1 protein. We provide an overview of the RSV RNA synthesis and the structural insights into the RSV gene transcription and genome replication process. We propose a model of how the essential four proteins coordinate their activities in different RNA synthesis processes.

Published: May 2021

Since the influenza season 2018/19, the Italian Ministry of Health recommended a dose of cell-based quadrivalent vaccine (Flucelvax Tetra) for HCWs (healthcare workers), because this vaccine seemed more efficacious in the prevention of AH3N2 virus. Due to the lack of pre-registration data, the safety profile of this new vaccine must be investigated in post-marketing surveillance. The aim of our study is to evaluate, through a post-marketing active surveillance program developed during the 2019/20 influenza season, any Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFIs) that happened in the 7 days after immunization with Flucelvax Tetra. The study was carried out in a sample of HCWs of Policlinico General University-Hospital (Apulia, South Italy). AEFIs were classified as ‘serious’ or ‘not serious’ according to the WHO (World Health Organization) guidelines; the WHO causality assessment algorithm was applied to classify serious AEFIs. A total of 741 HCWs were enrolled, and 430 AEFIs (reporting rate: 58.0 (95%CI: 54.4–61.6) × 100 enrolled) were recorded. Of these, 429 of 430 (99.8%; reporting rate: 57.8 (95%CI: 54.2–61.5) × 100 enrolled) were classified as not serious and one (0.2%; reporting rate: 0.13 (0.03–0.75) × 100 enrolled) was classified as serious. Local reactions were the adverse reaction reported most frequently (88%); regarding the serious AEFI, causality assessment excluded the causal link with the administration of the vaccine. All the AEFIs resolved without sequelae. Flucelvax Tetra showed a profile of high safety. Due to their characteristics of greater sensitivity than passive surveillance, active surveillance programs can be useful in defining the safety profiles of a given vaccine/drug in certain population subgroups.

Adequate global vaccine coverage during an influenza pandemic is essential to mitigate morbidity, mortality, and economic impact. Vaccine development and production needs to be sufficient to meet a vast global demand, requiring international cooperation and local vaccine production capacity, especially in resource-constrained countries. The use of adjuvants is one approach to augment the number of available vaccine doses and to overcome potential vaccine shortages. Appropriately selected adjuvant technologies can decrease the amount of vaccine antigen required per dose, may broaden or lengthen the conferred protection against disease, and may even allow protective single-dose vaccination. Here we describe a technology transfer collaboration between Switzerland and Indonesia that led to the establishment of a vaccine formulation platform in Surabaya which involved the transfer of equipment and expertise to enable research and development of adjuvanted vaccine formulations and delivery systems. This new Indonesian capability aims to facilitate local and regional access to know-how relating to adjuvanted vaccine formulations, thus promoting their application to local vaccine developers. In this review, we aim to share the “lessons learned” from this project to both support and inspire future scientific collaborations of a similar nature.
Migrations of Young Fish in Anthropogenically Transformed Rivers: Responses of Cyprinids and Percids to Ecological Filters and Barriers
Authors: Pavlov Dmitrii S. , Kostin Vasilii V. , Mikheev Victor N.
Published: May 2021

Downstream migration (DSM) of larvae and fry is an important phase of the life cycle of fish as it allows them to disperse, and it increases the size and diversity of the populations via them extending rearing grounds, exchanging genes, and avoiding competition and cannibalism. Two numerous and diverse fish families of the Eurasian rivers, Cyprinidae and Percidae, are well adapted to the conditions of the riverine continuum. Having said that, the regulation of rivers (construction of dams and water reservoirs) drastically changes their hydrology and topography. In this work, we argued that novel conditions of transformed river habitats influence the DSM of young cyprinids and percids in different ways. The published results on fish DSM and spatial distribution in nine European reservoirs (Russia, Kazakhstan, Czech Republic, Bulgaria) in comparison with untransformed rivers were reanalyzed from the viewpoint of this argument. Changes in the major characteristics of DSM of young cyprinids and percids, i.e., intensity, diel (24-h period), and seasonal patterns of migrations, as caused by anthropogenic transformation of the rivers, were revealed. We found that the novel ecological barriers and filters associated with different parts of water reservoirs differently influence the lateral and longitudinal movements, and the diel and seasonal dynamics of DSM of cyprinids and percids. These effects result in significantly more intensive emigration of young percids compared to cyprinids from reservoirs with deep-water intakes. At the scale of the whole regulated river, the morphological complexity (topography) of the reservoir plays a pivotal role in controlling the intensity of the DSM of young fish. Measures for the conservation and restoration of percid and cyprinid populations should be different.
Poder e território: uma avaliação dos padrões de competição política no Estado do Pará
Authors: Victorino Acrisio Pereira , da Silva Souza Carlos Augusto
Published: May 2021

O objetivo deste artigo consiste em avaliar, a partir da distribuição geográfica da votação dos deputados eleitos para a Câmara dos Deputados no Estado do Pará, se é possível identificar a existência (ou não) de um padrão territorial de competição eleitoral na relação dos parlamentares com os municípios. Para isso, a estudo procurará, a partir da análise da votação geográfica de todos os candidatos que disputaram a eleição de 2014, estabelecer os mecanismos de relacionamento dos deputados com os municípios, para perceber se o padrão de votação se estabelece numa lógica de concentração territorial do voto, o que indicaria estratégias de competição mais restritas do ponto de vista da dimensão territorial do estado, ou se, ao contrário, o relacionamento dos deputados com os municípios se estabelece numa condição de dispersão do voto, o que indicaria padrões de relacionamento mais amplos territorialmente
Gênero e criminalidade: o protagonismo feminino às avessas?
Authors: França Marlene
Published: May 2021

Este artigo versa sobre a questão de gênero e a criminalidade feminina. De um modo geral, o conceito de gênero vincula-se à construção social do ser homem e ser mulher, atribuindo aos mesmos, características e papéis específicos, numa tentativa de escapar dos determinismos biológicos associados aos termos sexo e diferença sexual. As pesquisas mostram que os aspectos que envolvem o fenômeno da criminalidade feminina são mais complexos do que os relacionados aos homens, não somente porque elas cometem menos crimes, mas pelo fato de que o número reduzido implica em maiores dificuldades para pesquisar. Quanto à questão da punição, observa-se que esta possui estreita relação com a questão de gênero, ou seja, algumas penas são direcionadas exclusivamente às mulheres. Este estudo pautou-se nas obras de autores como: Scott (1995); Camacho (1997); Saffioti; Almeida (2003). Utilizou-se da revisão bibliográfica como caminho metodológico, bem como o método hipotético-dedutivo, o qual toma por base a percepção e o aprofundamento teórico de um determinado problema. A conclusão preliminar do estudo revela a necessidade de abordar as questões de gênero, sem deixar de fora aspectos como a criminalidade em que muitas mulheres estão diretamente envolvidas, deixando-as numa situação ainda mais vulnerável, uma vez que são invisibilizadas pelo Estado no tocante ao tratamento que é dispensado para a legitimação das políticas de segurança autoritárias e para o controle das massas empobrecidas.
que tem o rock a ver com Bourdieu? Contributos acerca da aplicação da teoria dos campos ao rock alternativo português (1980-2010)
Authors: Guerra Paula
Published: May 2021

O principal objetivo deste artigo é analisar as representações sociais do rock alternativo em Portugal entre 1980 e 2010; parte de uma pesquisa mais ampla sobre os 30 anos de modernização do país (a partir do período pós-revolucionário iniciado em 1974), em que o rock alternativo é considerado uma prática social significativa no âmbito da estrutura social, artística e musical do país. Consideramos que o rock alternativo é um assunto que pode ser iluminado pela teoria dos campos de Bourdieu, que utilizamos para explorar a complexidade das relações que substanciam as estruturas subjacentes (de bandas, músicos, agentes, locais de eventos, editoras e promotores) do rock alternativo português. Os dados utilizados são resultado de uma pesquisa de longo prazo realizada entre 2005 e 2010, em que foram realizadas entrevistas em profundidade com mais de 200 indivíduos envolvidos nas esferas de produção e publicação do segmento de rock alternativo português.
A arte entre estilistas e chefs: os repertórios da arte e a delimitação das fronteiras na gastronomia e na moda
Authors: Venturini Ábile Bárbara , Ferreira Talitha , Miraldi Juliana , Netto Michel Nicolau
Published: May 2021

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as fronteiras simbólicas que são produzidas a partir de encontros do campo da arte com os campos da moda e da gastronomia. Elegemos como objetos de análise: no caso da moda, a parceria entre a marca de fast fashion Riachuelo e o Museu de Arte de São Paulo em 2017 chamada projeto Moda Masp; no caso da gastronomia, a obra “Restauro” na 32ª Bienal de São Paulo e a exposição “Alimentário” no Museu da Cidade, também em São Paulo. Esses encontros demonstram a articulação nesses campos de um repertório cultural legitimado e valorizado, produzido no campo da arte. É a partir desse repertório, que os agentes do campo da moda e da gastronomia traçam fronteiras simbólicas internas a seus campos, assegurando vantagens em suas disputas. Essas análises nos permitem concluir que: (i) esses encontros não ameaçam a autonomia do campo da arte, uma vez que dependem de seu reforço para que a arte continue sendo fonte de repertório cultural legítimo; (ii) a arte continua sendo importante fonte de capital cultural e distinção, se olharmos como seu repertório é utilizado para produção de fronteiras sociais a partir dos outros campos aqui analisados; (iii) esses encontros não produzem processos de artificação, na medida em que eles dependem da manutenção das fronteiras entre os campos para que haja eficácia simbólica na transferência da carga positiva atribuída ao ‘artista’ a estilistas e chefs.
BORÇLARIN NİSBİLİĞİ İLKESİ VE TÜRK MİRAS HUKUKU ANLAMINDA MİRASBIRAKANIN BORÇLARINDAN DOLAYI MİRASÇILARIN SORUMLULUĞU
Authors: ŞAHİN Mustafa
Published: May 2021

Türk Borçlar Hukukunun temel ilkelerinden birisi borç ilişkisi sonrası ortaya çıkan alacak ve borçların nisbiliği ilkesidir. Buna göre kural olarak alacak borç ilişkisinin kurulmasının ardından ortaya çıkan borç ve alacak, sadece hukuki işlemin taraflarını ilgilendirmektedir. Bir hukuki işlemle, işlemin tarafı olmayan bir üçüncü kişinin borçtan sorumlu olması söz konusu değildir. Türk Medeni Kanunu’nun 5. Maddesi, “Bu Kanun ve Borçlar Kanunu’nun genel nitelikte hükümleri, uygun düştüğü ölçüde tüm özel borç ilişkilerine” uygulanır şeklinde hüküm koymuştur. Miras hukuku, özel hukukun ve medeni hukukun bir alt dalı olarak Türk Medeni Kanunu içerisinde yer almaktadır. Klasik anlayış çerçevesinde bugüne kadar “Külli Halefiyet İlkesi” uyarınca, mirasbırakanın ölümüyle birlikte açılan miras sonrası tereke, mirasçılara bir bütün halinde geçer. Mirasçılar, ölümle birlikte, mirasbırakanın aktifine sahip olduğu kadar aynı anda pasifine de sahip olmaktadır. Kanun’da malvarlığı dışında özel haller de ayrıca düzenlenerek “tereke borcu” sorumluluğu esası getirilmiştir. Buna göre mirasçılar, mirasbırakanın tüm borçlarından kanunda sayılan haller saklı kalmak kaydıyla, m. 641/I ve 681/I hükümleri çerçevesinde “müteselsilen ve şahsen” sorumludurlar. Bu düzenlemeler bir bütün halinde düşünüldüğünde mirasçıların, mirasbırakanın borçlarından şahsen ve müteselsilen sorumlu tutulmaları hakkaniyete aykırıdır. Bu çalışma ile, mirasçıların bu anlamda en fazla sorumluluğunun devletin sorumluluğunda olduğu gibi kendilerine kalan terekedeki aktiflerle sınırlı olması gerektiği kanaati sunulmuştur. Bu fikrin temelleri izah edilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Bononun şekli şartlarından düzenleme yeri alternatif zorunlu bir unsur olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu yüzden düzenlendiği yer gösterilmeyen bir bono, düzenleyenin adının yanında yazılı olan yerde düzenlenmiş sayılır. TTK’da konuyla ilgili hükümlerinde bonodaki düzenleme yerinin nasıl ve ne şekilde tespit edileceğine dair herhangi bir bilgi verilmemiştir. Bu çalışmada bonoda düzenleme yerine dair hem Yargıtay kararları hem de doktrindeki görüşler ışığında yapılan tartışmalara değinilerek düzenleme yeri ile ilgili hukuki sorunların ortaya konulması ve bunlara bir çözüm getirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda bonoda düzenleme yerinin anlamı, önemi, bu yer açısından özellik arz eden durumlar (mülki idari birim ve kısaltılarak yazılabilme), hükmün ele alındığı düzenlemenin hukuki yerindeliği ve düzenleme yerinin geçersizliğine bağlanan hüküm ve sonuçlar (soyut borç ikrarı) Alman, İsviçre ve Türk hukuku çerçevesinde ayrıntılarıyla incelenmiştir.

Authors: Sianipar Godlif
Published: May 2021

This research discusses about moral problems that are occuring daily in the society and the Church as pointed out by Piet Go Twan An. Those moral problems are the problems created by firstly the Indonesian Marriage Law; secondly the problem of pastoral care among the priests should be reformed to suit inter-personal relations with God’s people so that the Church’s missions are recived affectively and efficiently; thirdly the problem of corruption in the government and the needs for the Church to be pro-active in eradicating corruptions; and the last point is the problem of homosexuality or LGBT issues. Solution is offered by moral transforming among its people (the faithful and the people) namely personal ethic transformation based on the Papal Encyclic Rerum Novarum and Quadragesimo Anno. This research is to address the question of how much personal moral transformation is needed to overcome moral problems in the society. The samples of this research are 895 people of Christians and Cahtolics in Medan. By using the Analysis Factor and SEM methods, it is predicted that there will be an increase of 0.08 on the transformation of personal morals if there is an effort of 0.28 points to improve the morals of the faithful and the people of Medan.
Pandemi Covid 19 dalam Perspektif Visi Kebangkitan Paus Fransiskus
Authors: Febrianto Martinus Dam
Published: May 2021

Abstract:

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a major impact on human life. People get sick, lose loved ones, get laid off, lose their incomes, worry about the future, or even suffer the threat of starvation. This tribulation can lead people to existential questions, which for the believer may lead to questions about the goodness and the care of God. However, instead of dwelling on why all of this has to be experienced, it seems more urgent to answer the question of what we should do as well as why we should do it. In the case of global pandemic, solidarity is an important word that has been called out by many figures from various backgrounds. Solidarity in the perspective of Pope Francis departs from a Christological vision which becomes a solid basis for human solidarity and conversion. This paper seeks to explore this theological vision, which is likely to be a valuable contribution to theological discourse as well as ethical and pastoral choices in the midst of difficult times.

 

Abstrak:

Pandemi Covid-19 telah membawa dampak yang besar bagi kehidupan umat manusia. Orang jatuh sakit, kehilangan orang yang dikasihi, terkena pemutusan kerja, kehilangan penghasilan, cemas akan hari depan, bahkan mengalami ancaman kelaparan. Berbagai kesukaran yang besar ini dapat membawa orang pada pertanyaan-pertanyaan eksistensial, yang bagi orang beriman bisa jadi mengarah para pertanyaan mengenai kebaikan dan kepeduliaan Allah. Akan tetapi, alih-alih berkutat pada pertanyaan mengapa semua ini harus dialami, tampaknya lebih urgen untuk menjawab pertanyaan mengenai apa yang seharusnya dilakukan, juga mengapa kita harus melakukannya. Dalam hal ini, solidaritas menjadi kata penting yang telah diserukan oleh berbagai pihak dari beragam latar belakang. Solidaritas dalam perspektif Paus Fransiskus beranjak dari visi Kristologis yang menjadi dasar yang kuat bagi pertobatan dan solidaritas antarmanusia. Tulisan ini berupaya mengeksplorasi visi teologis tersebut, yang kiranya menjadi sumbangan berharga bagi pemaknaan teologis sekaligus pilihan etis dan pastoral di tengah masa yang sulit.

Published: May 2021

Buku ini adalah usaha penulis untuk membangun sebuah kesadaran mengenai usaha berteologi di Indonesia yang sadar konteks. Masalah yang digeluti dalam buku ini adalah Politik dan Budaya. Tema politik mendapat tempat yang lebih banyak (6 dari 9 sub judul yang ditampilkan). Tema politik dan budaya dipilih dengan alasan “iman akan Allah yang terlibat dalam sejarah umat manusia”. Dasar ini yang dipakai penulis untuk mengulas masalah-masalah sosial-politik dan sosial-kultural. Menurut penulis, teologi terlibat bukan salah satu teologi baru, tapi lebih sebagai sebuah usaha sadar untuk menegaskan inti dari kegiatan berteologi. Jika kegiatan teologis adalah refleksi atas iman yang merupakan tanggapan dari wahyu Allah maka gerakan menyentuh tema-tema politik dan budaya merupakan gerakan sah dan wajar mengingat wahyu Allah menunjukkan dengan jelas keterlibatan-Nya dalam sejarah umat manusia.

Since 2009, Mexico faces a crisis due to scarcity and the consequent increase in prices of basic products. This situation is expected to continue, because the area available for cultivation, livestock and fishing is reaching its limit, while the population and its food needs are increasing. Today, strategies must be used to accelerate the production of plant and animal food that reduce costs and counter shortages. This article presents the development of a self-supporting vertical modular prototype for the production of vegetables and meat (poultry and fish) for the Sierra Norte region of Puebla, through the design and integration of an automated control system responding to the need to provide an alternative in food production. The prototype is made up of three modules: the first module is for raising fish, the second module is for vegetable production, the third module is for raising poultry. In this way, the project intends that, based on the methodology put in place, it can be implemented for food production in our region.

Warm drinking water is one of the non-pharmacological therapies that can have an oxygenation effect on the body, especially in the respiratory organs so that it can help clear the airway in bronchial asthma patients who experience respiratory problems due to obstruction or other trigger factors such as allergic reactions, viral infections, and air pollution. Warm drinking water is the right therapy for bronchial asthma patients because by drinking warm water the particles trigger tightness and the liquid or mucus in the bronchioles will be broken down.

Pobres entre los pobres, por los caminos del infausto territorio mexicano, los migrantes centroamericanos parecieran no importar a nadie. Para el crimen organizado y la fuerza pública coludida representan una mercancía humana que sirve de carnada para cobrar un rescate a los familiares, se pueden vender a la industria de explotación sexual o pueden reclutarse como sicarios del hampa. En el peor de los casos, se consideran cuerpos despreciables, torturados, mutilados y asesinados. A expensas de la indolencia oficial, activistas y religiosos tejen redes de solidaridad para ofrecer alimento, cobijo y reposo a los transterrados que huyen de la miseria y la violencia en busca de la nueva tierra prometida, Estados Unidos, donde sin embargo el apartheid social de xenofobia, sobreexplotación y exclusión recuerda, una vez más, que los condenados de la tierra configuran una clase de subhumanos irrelevantes para los invitados a la fiesta del capital.

Consequences of Parental Absence due to Migration: A Qualitative Inquiry into Adolescent Students’ Well-being
Authors: Peñalba Ericson H.
Published: May 2021

Overseas work has become a viable solution in addressing the problems encountered by one out of every 12 Filipino families. Although it has brought opportunities for a better and financially stable life, it has resulted in inevitable consequences that could affect children who are left behind. This study explored perceptions of six adolescent students regarding such consequences of being geographically separated from their parents on their well-being. The thematic analysis of the responses obtained from in-depth interviews generated a total of four dominant themes, namely seeking opportunities for sustaining family needs, having indebtedness toward parents, longing for parental love and care, and facing the negative consequences of parental absence. These themes provided further evidence on how the changing dynamics in family relationships, as brought about by migration and parental absence, could have negative consequences, particularly on their emotional well-being. This study has shown that the interviewees experienced varied negative emotions arising from the acknowledgment of the sad reality that they were left behind, having to endure an increasing relationship gap with their parents. The themes, however, indicated positive perceptions as regards how the interviewees valued the sacrifices of their parents. The results were used to develop a framework for a social work-based program for enrichment and enhancement of the well-being of children of migrant workers.

Published: May 2021

Actual aspects of solving the scientific problem of improving the assessment and accounting of financial investments according to national and international standards are considered. The concept of defining financial investments is clarified, and the need to divide them by the term of maintenance (current, long-term), from the point of view of ownership (corporate, debt), and for tax purposes is justified. The versatility and lack of an accurate definition of the concept of financial investments are associated with a fairly wide range of their application in economic activities. The purpose of the research is to theoretically substantiate a set of issues of accounting for financial investments according to national and international standards and develop proposals for improving accounting for financial investments. It is indicated that theoretical, methodological and organizational support for accounting for financial investments should be attributed to urgent tasks in the accounting and reporting system. It is emphasized that financial investments characterize the operations performed that provide the opportunity to obtain rights, Securities and a number of other financial instruments in order to obtain profit and other benefits. It is noted that the allocation of financial investments is an important process, since from the moment they are recognized as an asset, they become an object of accounting. It was found out that investment objects differ in the direction and participation of the state, the nature and content of the investment cycle, the scale and direction of the project, and the efficiency of using the invested funds. Conceptual approaches to determining methods for evaluating financial investments in accounting are substantiated. Proposals and practical recommendations have been developed that can be further used in the practical activities of business entities.

The specifics of substantiation of the choice between outsourcing and vertical integration to increase efficiency in the energy sector are revealed.
In the study of setting boundaries for the choice of outsourcing or vertical integration, the theory of transaction costs was used, according to which the amount of transaction costs depends on: 1) the frequency of operations (frequency of maintenance of the electricity industry); 2) uncertainty; 3) the specifics of the assets involved in the agreement (electrical personnel with the appropriate level of education, qualifications sufficient for technical calculations; the required stock of electrical parts). Taking these factors into account allows you to find the optimal relationship between cost-effectiveness and security of energy use, and thus justify decisions on the feasibility / inexpediency of outsourcing energy responsibilities.
