В оглядовій статті автор розкриває проблему професійного саморозвитку як складової формування андрагогічної компетентності викладача післядипломної педагогічної освіти. Наголошується на важливості особистості викладача, яка є ключовою фігурою реформ української освіти. Проаналізовано та конкретизовано понятійно-термінологічний апарат дослідження. Розкрито поняття «професійний розвиток» та вказано, що цей термін трактується науковцями як багатокомпонентний, цілеспрямований, пролонгований і поетапний процес професійного становлення, розвитку та саморозвитку особистості, зорієнтований на набуття нових компетентностей; характеризується неперервністю, системністю, динамізмом, циклічністю і синергізмом та передбачає перетворення ціннісно-світоглядних орієнтирів, мотиваційної сфери, психологічної структури професійно-педагогічної діяльності, засвоєння та реалізацію інноваційних професійних ролей і функцій. Автор виходить з того, що професійний саморозвиток викладача післядипломної педагогічної освіти тісно пов'язаний з формуванням у нього андрагогічної компетентності й впливає на процес підготовки та перепідготовки педагогічних працівників, а також є невід'ємною складовою андрагогічної компетентності. Акцентовано увагу на тому, що професійний саморозвиток викладача закладу післядипломної педагогічної освіти має бути усвідомленою потребою в неперервному самовдосконаленні, ставленні до навчання як пріоритету професійної діяльності, а сукупність набутих знань, умінь, навичок, якостей і ціннісних орієнтацій, які необхідні для виконання ролі андрагога – андрагогічна компетентність буде реалізуватись через освітню діяльність, розвиваючи соціально-значимі якості дорослої людини.

Published: August 2021

Introduction. The article is devoted to the examination of the new approaches in management of finances at classical universities, namely - the introduction of results-oriented budgeting. The relevance of this study is enhanced by the fact that budgeting technologies can be effectively used in terms of financial autonomy of universities, which necessitates the reorientation of the entire management system to achieve strategic development goals and align the development of classical universities with available funding.Purpose of the research. The purpose of the paper is to determine the methodological features of the introduction of result-oriented budgeting technologies in classical universities of Ukraine.Results. The methodological approaches to the introduction of budgeting technologies in classical universities of Ukraine in terms of financial autonomy are enhanced. The essence of the concept of budgeting is analyzed. The role of the organizational component in the introduction of result-oriented budgeting is highlighted. The process of distribution of financial powers and responsibilities by financial decision-making centers is described. The range of persons responsible for making financial decisions is determined. Approaches to the analysis of budget execution in general at the university are offered, in particular it is reasonable to perform the analysis in four directions: on items of the social block; on items of innovative and technical development; on items of communication and mobility of employees; on other current expenses. The received analytical reports on execution of budgets of structural divisions (institutes, faculties, etc.) are transferred for further work to service of internal financial audit. The result of control procedures should be envisioned in a set of measures aimed at eliminating negative trends in the development of each structural unit, a list of liable individuals (with proposals to eliminate identified violations), and factors that have the most significant impact on the financial condition of the institution. Thus, the introduction of results-based budgeting will not only allow for effective planning, but also for a more prudent approach to the implementation of estimates

Authors: Chyrak Iryna
Published: August 2021

Introduction. Robert Owen is a very prominent figure in the history of economic thought in England in the early XIX century. His talent was evident as an economist-theorist and in his organizational skills, which allowed Owen to make significant improvements in the textile industry.Purpose is to generalize the economic views of a prominent economist in conjunction with his experimental and reformist activities in production in order to create an «ideal labor community» that will improve the world of capitalism, provide high profits for entrepreneurs and prosperous lives of employees. Analyze the views of the scientist on the ways and means of creating a future society.Methods. The methodological basis of the study are such general scientific methods as analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction, which were used to assess the views and recommendations of the scientist to improve existing social relations; historical method – to understand the causes and essence of the evolution of views on existing society and the importance of moral and educational education; positive and normative methods – to study the common and distinctive features in the views of the future social order of the representatives of utopian socialism.Results. A large number of works by R. Owen have been studied and it has been found that his social utopia and reformist activities were contradictory, his «projects» were mostly unrealistic, but same time had a significant impact on the labor and trade union movement in England and the development of economic thought. The scientist found that private property was the cause of many crimes and misfortunes. It was found that R. Owen had been focused on trying to make practical changes, develop specific proposals for the restructuring of society, improving working conditions and living conditions of workers. He saw the possibility of improving the living conditions of employees in the organization of community work, the effectiveness of which he tested during the famous experiment in New Lenark. According to R. Owen, a good society should be based on science and governed by simple and healthy principles of equality and justice.Discussion. The prospect of further research lies in a deeper and more detailed analysis of individual works of the famous economist, that will help to understand the logic of his way of thinking and give a more objective assessment of the contribution of R. Owen in the development of world economic thought.

Published: August 2021

Vital Sign Monitor is a tool used to diagnose a patient who needs intensive care to know the condition of the patient. Parameters used in monitoring the patient's condition include body temperature and respiration. The contribution of this research designed a vital sign monitoring tool with IoT-based notifications so that remote monitoring can be done by utilizing web Thinger.io, LCD, RGB LEDs as a display of the results of the study and notify telegrams if it becomes abnormal to the patient's condition. Therefore, in order to produce accurate data in the process of data retrieval, a relaxed position of the patient is required and the stability of the wi-fi network so that monitoring is not hampered. The study used the DS18B20 digital temperature sensor placed on the axilla and the piezoelectric sensor placed on the abdomen of the patient. The results of the study were obtained by taking data on patients. The resulting temperature value will be compared to the thermometer, which produces the highest error value of 0.56%, which is still possible because the tolerance limit is 1oC. and for the collection of respiration values that have been compared to the patient monitor obtained the highest error value of 6.2%, which is still feasible because the tolerance limit is 10%. In this study, there is often a crash library between the temperature sensor and other sensors, so for further research, recommend to replacing the temperature sensor

Published: August 2021

Acute myocardial infarction, commonly referred to as a heart attack, is the most common cause of sudden death where a monitoring tool is needed that is equipped with a system that can notify doctors to take immediate action. The purpose of this study was to design a heart attack detection device through indicators of vital human signs. The contribution of this research is that the system works in real-time, has more parameters, uses wireless, and is equipped with a system to detect indications of a heart attack. In order for wireless monitoring to be carried out in real-time and supported by a detection system, this design uses a radio frequency module as data transmission and uses a warning system that is used for detection. Respiration rate was measured using the piezoelectric sensor, and body temperature was measured using the DS18B20 temperature sensor. Processing of sensor data is done with ESP32, which is displayed wirelessly by the HC-12 module on the PC. If an indication of a heart attack is detected in the parameter value, the tool will activate a notification on the PC. In every indication of a heart attack, it was found that this design can provide notification properly. The results showed that the largest respiratory error value was 4%, and the largest body temperature error value was 0.55%. The results of this study can be implemented in patients who have been diagnosed with heart attack disease so that it can facilitate monitoring the patient's condition.
Materials on the fauna of bivalve mollusks (Mollusca, Bivalvia) of the Taz river basin (Western Siberia)
Authors: Babushkin E. S.
Published: August 2021

Based on a study of samples made by the author, 70 species of freshwater bivalves belonging to 6 genera and 2 families are recorded for the Taz River basin (north of Western Siberia). An annotated list of bivalves of the Taz basin is provided, with data on species’ range, their findings in Western Siberia and within the studied area. Some information about bionomics and abundance of bivalves are given. 45 species are for the first time registered in this basin. Most studied molluscan communities are characterized by low species richness; the distribution of species by their occurrence was extremely uneven. 22 species are characterized as rare. The highest species richness of bivalves was found in river channels, rivers and brooks; the lowest - in temporary habitats. The core of the fauna is constituted by species with broadest range (cosmopolitan, trans Holarctic, trans Palearctic) as well as by taxa with European Siberian type of distribution. From the taxonomic point of view, the bivalve fauna of the Taz basin is relatively separated from the faunas of other river basins of Western Siberia and is more similar to the fauna of the Lower Yenisean zoogeographic province (sensu Starobogatov [1986]).

Authors: Kamardin N. N.
Published: August 2021

TEM and SEM electron microscopy have been used to study osphradia in 6 species of marine Caenogastropoda. The ultrastructural features of mechanoreceptor cells that perform the Littorina osmoreception function in osphradium organs are presented. Mechanoreception is based on a possible change in the volume of cisterns of microvilli of supporting cells, which can be transmitted by the cilia of nearby mechanoreceptor cells. These cells obviously, have mechanosensory channels on the apical surface. It has been first discovered in predatory molluscs actively searching for food, that single receptor cells with a mobile sensilla consisting of several cilium were joined together. They are located along the groove zone and follow the direction and force of the movement of water along the osphradium petals.

Status of the genus Dallicordia and composition of deep-sea carnivorous bivalves of the genus Policordia (Bivalvia, Verticordioidea, Lyonsiellidae)
Authors: Safonova Lyudmila A. , Krylova Elena M.
Published: August 2021

The family Lyonsiellidae comprises carnivorous bivalve molluscs, distributed worldwide from sublittoral to ultraabyssal depths. One of the key anatomical characters of lyonsiellids is the reduction of the gill filaments in size and number and an increase of amount of muscles and connective tissue in gills, so their ctenidia represent an intermediate stage between eulamellibranch and septibranch conditions. The family Lyonsiellidae presently includes four genera: Lyonsiella, Allogramma, Policordia and Dallicordia. Taxonomy of the family is still problematic at both generic and species levels. The genus Dallicordia, typified by Lyonsiella alaskana was established on the assumption that it has no gills but possesses a muscular septum pierced by ostia, in contrast to the other lyonsiellids that have filamentous gills. Additionally, Lyonsiella uschakovi and Policordia ochotica were tentatively assigned to the new genus. Later P. ochotica was synonymized with P. media. In this paper we show that actually the Dallicordia was typified by an undescribed species misidentified as Lyonsiella alaskana which we describe here as D. bernardi sp. nov. Taxonomic position of the genus is dubious and could be clarified only after additional anatomical data on its type species becomes available. On the basis of examination of the type material of P. ochotica and images of the holotype of P. media, we reinstate the species P. ochotica. For the first time photographs of the holotype of L. uschakovi are provided for this specimen that was previously considered lost. Given the current state of knowledge we propose to consider species L. alaskana, L. uschakovi and P. ochotica in frame of the genus Policordia, for which we provide a list of all 29 species described up to date.

Cloud computing facilities have become an increasing rise in demand for presenting computing sources. Various programs like monetary transactions, fitness care systems, video streaming, IoT programs want on-call for provisioning of cloud sources to guarantee timeliness and excessive availability. A shared culture for data interchange has evolved as a result of the fast progress of networking technology. The data security has become a difficult issue as a result of the vast volume of data that is exchanged via the internet. Thus there is a requirement for security to protect data that is transmitted across an insecure connection. In our proposed work, privacy, confidentiality, availability, integrity, and accountability that contribute to the security of information are ensured by cryptographic technique. This paper also describes an exhaustive study on the usage of hybrid algorithms i.e. the combination of Advanced Encryption Standards (AES) and Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) to protect data leakage and protect the privacy of end-users and SHA256 algorithm to ensure data integrity. This type of hybrid encryption will help not only in concentrating software as well as physical attacks but also provide the model to deal with and prevent the application from these types of attacks; thus making the cloud application system more secure. The implemented web application can be used as a defence system for privacy and security in organizations as well as institutions where members of the organization can share the file or confidential data to other team members or colleagues without data leakage thus providing data privacy and security.

One of the essential factors contributing to a plant's growth is identifying and preventing diseases in the early stages. Healthy plants are essential for a rich production. Recent advances in Deep learning - a subset of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are playing a pivotal role in solving image classification problems and can be applied to the agricultural sector for crop surveillance and early anomaly identification. For this research, we used an open-source dataset of leaf images divided into three classes, two of which are the most common disease types found on many crops; the graphical characterizations for the three classes are images of leaves with Powdery Residue, images of leaves with Rusty Spots, and images of Healthy leaves. The primary objective of this research is to present a pre-trained ImageNet network architecture that is well suited for dealing with plant-based data, even when sample sizes collected are limited. We used different convolutional neural network-based architectures such as InceptionV3, MobileNetV2, Xception, VGG16, and VGG19 to classify plant leaf images with visually different representations of each disease. Xception, MobileNetV2, and DenseNet had a considerable advantage over all the performance metrics recorded among the other networks trained.

Published: August 2021

Mining of coal (fossil fuel) resources in Enugu resulted in groundwater pollution/depletion and left the mine site with the potentials of air pollution, loss of landscape/aesthetic degradation and soil contamination. Other Environmental impacts were extensive soil damage, alteration in microbial communities and affecting vegetation leading to destruction of vast amounts of land and displacement of dwellers. Reclamation is the process to restore the ecological integrity of these disturbed mine land areas. It includes the management of all types of physical, chemical and biological disturbances of soils such as soil pH, fertility, microbial community and various soil nutrient cycles that makes the degraded land soil productive. Mining does not mean permanent loss of land for other use. On the other hand it holds potential for altered and improved use apart from restoring for agriculture, forestry and irrigation. This paper attempts to view the best practices for reclaiming the abandoned Enugu coal mine site which ceased production since 2002.

"Biometrics" is got from the Greek word 'life' and 'measure' which implies living and evaluation take apart. It simply converts into "life estimation". Biometrics uses computerized acknowledgment of people, dependent on their social and natural attributes. Biometric character are data separated from biometric tests, which can use for examination with a biometric orientation. Biometrics involves techniques to unusually recognize people dependent on at least one inherent physical or behavior attribute. In software engineering, specifically, biometric is used as a form of character retrieve the Committee and retrieve command. Biometric identically utilized to recognize people in bunches that are in observation. Biometric has quickly risen like a auspicious innovation for validation and has effectively discovered a spot in most of the scientific safety regions. An effective bunching method suggest for dividing enormous biometrics data set through recognizable proof. This method depends on the changed B+ tree is decreasing the discs get to. It diminishes the information recovery time and also possible error rates. Hence, for bigger applications, the need to reduce the data set to a more adequate portion emerges to accomplish both higher paces and further developed precision. The main motivation behind ordering is to recover a small data set for looking through the inquiry

Student Guidance and Counseling based on Expert System Using Certainty Factor Method

Abstract: Every campus or college has one service called guidance and counseling. This role is held by the academic advisory lecturer. The workload of academic advisory lecturers becomes high when the ratio of the number of lecturers to students is low. To ease the workload of academic advisory lecturers, an expert system is made that can facilitate students and academic advisory lecturers in overcoming existing problems. The development of this expert system uses the Expert System Development Life Cycle (ESDLC) development method. The application that was developed was then tested on Informatics Engineering students at Ibn Sina University. Tests include the Black Box tests. From the evaluation of the user obtained the results that the developed expert system can be used to deal with problems such as those that have been stored in the list of problem data and solutions. The aesthetic appearance of the system must be improved in order for users to be interested in using it. Some users suggest multimedia elements be included in the developed expert system view to make it look more attractive.

The effect of the Pace of Gender Revolution on Fertility Transition in West Africa: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Onipede Wusu , Isiugo-Abanihe Uche C.
Published: August 2021

The influence of the pace of gender revolution on fertility change in West Africa is examined. Data from two waves of Demographic and Health Survey(DHS)pertaining to 11 countries are analysed using descriptive tools and Poisson regression. The analysis demonstrates the emergence of gender revolution, defined as the emergence of an era where women embrace opportunities in education and labour market, thereby getting involved in the public sphere, at varying degrees across West Africa. A negative and significant association exists between gender revolution and fertility indicator in almost all the countries (p<0.05). Countries that experienced a decline in fertility showed relatively higher percentage increase in either high or medium gender revolution. Chad and Niger, where fertility increased between the two waves of DHS, indicated the lowest levels of gender revolution. The findings suggest that the pace of gender revolution is a significant factor in the rate of fertility decline in West Africa. Therefore, investment in female education, hence, enhancing the social standard of the girl-child, and boosting the economy of respective countries to create employment, would make a significant contribution to fertility transition in West Africa.
Is Growth Immiserizing in Nigeria?
Authors: Babatunde Musibau Adetunji , Oyejidee T. Ademola
Published: August 2021

Nigeria has experienced quite significant growth over the past one decade, but the incidence of poverty has also increased suggesting that the growth is immiserizing. The immiserizing nature of the growth was supported by the estimates from the growth elasticity of poverty, the employment elasticity of growth and the quality of the growth spells. The determinants of immiserizing growth cut across economic, social, political and institutional factors that include dysfunctional behaviour, structure of the economy, rising inequality and resource misallocation. However, this does not imply that, at the margin, economic growth is not beneficial to the poor. The simple point is that there are many other factors other than economic growth that help explain the weak or missing linkages between macro-economic growth and household incomes. Domestic policies are necessary to reduce the various constraints inherent in the economy that makes growth immiserizing.
Inductance Gradient Calculations of EMFY-3 Electromagnetic Launcher
Authors: Tosun Nail , Keysan Ozan
Published: August 2021

ASELSAN Inc. has been working on electromagnetic launch technologies since 2014. The first prototype, EMFY-1, has a 25 mm × 25 mm square bore and 3-m-length rails. The second prototype, EMFY-2, has a 50 × 50 mm square bore and 3-m-length. In this paper, a recently developed prototype, EMFY-3, is presented, which has a 50 × 75 mm rectangular bore and 6-m-length. The input energy of the PPS is doubled to 8 MJ, and the 2.91 MJ muzzle energy is obtained up to now. Rail currents, breech, and muzzle voltages are measured to investigate electromagnetic calculations. Velocity curves are captured with Doppler radar, which enables us to establish propulsive inductance gradient L0pr transients empirically. The results confirm that L0 pr is constant throughout the launch, as no significant breaking mechanism occurs with the non-magnetic containment. However, a slight variation (%2 at maximum) happens from one launch to another with different rails’ current magnitudes. The transition phenomenon is a candidate for the drop in the L0 pr, as it occurs more likely at launches with higher linear current densities.
Toward a New Type of Stream for Interactive Content
Authors: Jenkins Barry , Malassenet Francois , Scott John , Patel Kshitij
Published: August 2021

We describe a new
method of game streaming designed to address the limitations of video-based
cloud gaming and graphics API command streaming approaches. The method is
implemented as a game-engine protocol and plug-in called GPEG (Geometry Pump
Engine Group). GPEG streams the game engine content as sub-assets, not video of
gameplay or graphics API commands. GPEG encoding uses unique pre-processing
algorithms which intelligently subdivide textured mesh assets into much smaller
sub-assets based on their potential geometric and perceptual visibility. A
thin, CPU-only, server software process interactively streams the pre-encoded
sub-asset packets to the client-side game engine using navigation-driven,
visibility-based prefetch. Like command streaming, the method does not require
a GPU on the server. By using predictive prefetch, the method overcomes network
latency. In contrast to progressive download, the method is a true content
stream, with adaptive scalability and intelligent caching that together enable
interactive game engine content streaming over broadband.
