Authors: Tei Roselind , Saleh Abdulrazak Yahya
Published: July 2022

The aim of this article is to analyse the Deep Spiking Neural Network (DSNN) performance in flood prediction. The DSNN model has been trained and evaluated with 30 years of data obtained from the Drainage and Irrigation (DID) department of Sarawak from 1989 to 2019. The model's effectiveness is measured and examined based on accuracy (ACC), RMSE, Sensitivity (SEN), specificity (SPE), Positive Predictive Value (PPV), NPV and the Average Site Performance (ASP). Furthermore, the proposed model's performance was compared with other classifiers that are commonly used in flood prediction to evaluate the viability and capability of the proposed flood prediction method. The results indicate that a DSNN model of greater ACC (98.10%), RMSE (0.065%), SEN (93.50%), SPE (79.0%), PPV (88.10%), and ASP (89.60 %) is predictable. The findings were fair and efficient and outperformed the other BP, MLP, SARIMA, and SVM classification models.

Published: July 2022

With the development of sensor and image processing technology, computer vision plays an increasingly significant role in the chemical engineering because of its characteristics such as low cost, high resolution, and non-contact measurement. In this paper, the motion probability map can be obtained by sparse optical flow based on Harris corner point. Then the coarse contour of silicon dioxide particles which is the input of kernelized correlation filtering (KCF) algorithm can be generalized. KCF algorithm can easily complete tracking task under the influence of disturbance including light change, video shaking and so forth. A contour refining and tracking method are proposed. The geometric active contour (GAC) algorithm can use function as implicit expression of contour and can design the different energy functional to control contour evolution. By minimizing of energy functional, the refining contour is evolved. Then the target tracking is realized according to the refined contour.

In the last few decades, water contamination has become a serious problem that everyone is concerned about. Personal Water Satisfaction is now a standout for individuals who have significant influence over their wellbeing and the state of ailments “among relatives, what are more animals." The principal supplies of drinking water are lakes and other waterways, which rely significantly on water flow (which includes the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of water). This IoT based water quality monitoring system's main goal or objective is to detect water quality, and how the pH content of water varies, and send notifications to the necessary organizations for that specific or specific water body. This system will be installed in water supply tanks and drinking storage tanks. We're using an Arduino board to compute pH and the same GSM module for message transfer in that case. Finally, the user receives an alert stating the water's pH value. This concept can be developed further by uploading data from sensors to the cloud for global water quality monitoring.

Published: July 2022

Tribolium confusum and Sitophilus oryzae species are seen in human habitats, mainly in kitchens. They damage the storage products by feeding on crops and disturb people like urban pests in kitchens and homes. Until now, there were no biocidal that could be used to control these species. We carried out to determine the effect of deltamethrin, which is used against some urban pests, on T. confusum and S. oryzae under laboratory conditions. The recommended dose of the biocidal against urban pests (60 ml/10 liter of water), half dose (30 ml/10 liter of water), and quarter dose (15 ml/10 liter of water) were used in the study. The results showed that the highest amount of the biocidal (60 ml/10 liter of water) resulted in 87.5% mortality in T. confusum and 97.5% in S. oryzae. The LD50 value for T. confusum is 32.8 and LD90 is 61.3 ml, and for S. oryzae, these values were found to be 18.8 and 38.1 ml, respectively.

Authors:   School of Environmental Science and Management, University of the Philippines Los Baños, College, Laguna, Philippines, Cando III Evaristo Niño
Published: July 2022

Urban agglomeration in Butuan City led to issues on solid waste management (SWM). The socioeconomic profile and effectiveness of SWM programs were assessed and evaluated through a survey questionnaire. Using a 5-point Likert scale to measure the knowledge, attitude, and practices towards SWM. Key informant interviews and focused group discussions were also conducted. On the average, respondents showed very high SWM knowledge (3.80) and attitude (4.52) which was attributed to high educational attainment and income. Majority of the respondents practice waste segregation (97.9%), reusing (83.8%), recycling (70.4%) and composting (61.3%). However, low knowledge on the location (35.6%), functionality (33.7%), and utilization (51.3%) of the materials recovery facilities was noted, an indication of non-compliance by local government units to SWM laws and policies. A significant number of respondents do not practice composting (38.7%) due to lack of facilities and available space. Clustered materials recovery and composting facilities, and adjustments on waste collection, storage, and disposal systems must be established and implemented. Incentive programs, awareness campaigns, and public participation are key elements of an efficient SWM system.

This study aims to assess the performance of the Gamboeng green tea production system using the Green Supply Chain Operation Reference (GreenSCOR). Fifteen environmental performance indicators were incorporated in the five main processes in the supply chain: planning, sourcing, production, delivery and return. The data were collected from field observations of the supply chain structure and flow process inventory, then validated through in-depth interview with key informants. Data inventory of processes was utilized for measuring several indicators especially in the planning process and the realization of the plan in the production process. Gamboeng tea has an advantage score in indicator of realization (15%) for use of clean energy source (i.e., wood pellet) to substitute liquified petroleum gas as well as for using environmentally friendly packaging, zero waste disposal and total recyclable waste. Further improvements are recommended for the five performance indicators, particularly in the planning process, such as providing training and education for personnel about environmental awareness and management, planning for minimizing water usage, planning in minimizing inorganic fertilizer usage, screening suppliers, and using larger portions of wood pellets.

The agrochemical overuse, especially that of paraquat, cypermethrin and carbendazim, has been observed in Thailand. Residuals do not only contaminate the environment and agricultural products, but also other living organisms related to the farming. With less attention being paid to the agrochemical residues in the environment, this study aimed to quantify agrochemical residues in soil, water, chicken’s blood and worker’s urine samples across different periods of cultivation among nine rose farms in Tak Province, Thailand were selected as study sites. Various agrochemicals were used throughout the year; particular attention was paid to paraquat, cypermethrin and carbendazim. Soil and water samples represented the environment, chicken’s blood represented animal subjects, and urine samples of rose farmers represented human subjects. The study revealed the existence of those three agrochemical residues in both soil and water samples. It was only in soil samples that paraquat and cypermethrin concentrations were higher than the maximum allowable concentration (47.24 mg kg-1and 0.24 mg kg-1, respectively). Residues of cypermethrin and carbendazim were found only in chicken’s blood (0.0280 μg L-1 and 0.0750 - 0.1640 μg L-1, respectively). Since rose farmers were well equipped with personal protective equipment when applying the pesticides, paraquat, cypermethrin and carbendazim quantifications in their urine samples were all below the detectable limits of the instruments used. Further studies such as better methods for residue analysis and a larger sample size are needed. More reliable quantifications may possibly result in assessing the relationship between agrochemical residues among environmental and living organisms.

Authors: KM AJITHA , Dr.N.Chenthalir Indra
Published: July 2022

In this paper, task scheduling process is a challenging task in cloud computing to determine the best optimal virtual machine for each task. Many types of scheduling algorithms have been introduced for small or medium-scale cloud computing. However, dynamic scheduling is a major challenging problem for large-scale cloud computing environments. To address the issue, this paper proposes a novel technique called Principal Component Regression-based Adaptive Multiple Extrema Seeking Cat Swarm Resource Optimization (PCR-AMESCSRO) technique for efficient task scheduling with lesser makespan and higher efficiency. The PCR-AMESCSRO technique is designed with the contribution of Principal Component Regression (PCR) and Adaptive Multiple Extrema Seeking Cat Swarm Optimization Algorithm (AMESCSOA). First, the PCR is applied to analyze the user requested task and assign the priority level with lesser makespan. Second, the AMESCSOA is used to identify the optimal virtual machine by the cloud manager. Lastly, the experimental valuation is performed on factors such as task scheduling efficiency, false-positive rate, makespan, and memory consumption with respect to a number of user tasks. The observed results show the superior performance of our proposed PCR-AMESCSRO technique when compared to state-of-the-art methods.

In past years prediction was only based on experience and daily headlines of business newspapers but now it depends on various international, national and political economic factors and the sentiments and reaction of people over the issues. With the growing power of social media, the game in market over this also changed now with the help of sentiment analysis over social media we can determine the mood of investors over the news. In the present scenarios you can divide two categories for the prediction strategies one is the time series analysis of stocks and the second is artificial intelligence property over the market. AI property contains multi-layer perception, SVM, naive Bayes , back propagation,CNN,LSTM, RNN etc during this we have a tendency to came with plan of combination of each. Within the paper we have conjointly covers the assorted challenges that are encountered while building prediction models. This whole module focuses on use of statistical analysis and conjointly development of the sentimental analysis and to get better results. The LSTM has the advantage of analyzing relationship between time series knowledge through memory functions. The performance of the system is improved by combine efforts of time-series and sentiments with the LSTM prediction model.

The objectives of this research are to analyze the students’ perceptions of the use of Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) in pronunciation learning and to analyze the problems faced by the students regarding the use of the MALL in pronunciation. Additionally, this research was conducted using a mixed method design. The data for this research were taken from 15 students in the English Education Study Program, at Tadulako University. In collecting the data for this research, the researcher used questionnaires and interviews with the students. The questionnaire was in the form of a statement and it included five degrees of answer options. The interview, on the other hand, was in the form of semi-structured and included 10 items. Then, after analyzing the data obtained, it was concluded that the general perception of the students is that the perception of the students on the use of MALL in pronunciation is positive as they perceive that MALL is effective and beneficial for their pronunciation learning. Further, the students explained that there is one major problem they face regarding the use of MALL in pronunciation that deals with internet connectivity. However, as can be inferred from the students’ explanation, there are three more problems that cause difficulties to students. They are the students’ phones performance; the possibility of the students being redirected; and the students’ familiarity with using mobile phones for learning.

A utilização da aprendizagem cooperativa na formação inicial de professores. Uma investigação qualitativa
Authors: Santos Paulo Jorge
Published: July 2022

A deficiente articulação entre a teoria e a prática na formação inicial de professores constitui a crítica, que, de forma mais recorrente, é abordada na literatura sobre este domínio. No âmbito deste artigo iremos focar a nossa atenção nas abordagens pedagógicas dos formadores de professores. Com efeito, o modo como os futuros professores são ensinados no decurso da sua formação pode desempenhar um papel particularmente relevante na forma como irão assumir posteriormente o seu ofício de docentes. Partindo do conceito de isomorfismo pedagógico, que sustenta que a formação deve assentar nas mesmas estratégias que o docente em formação poderá utilizar futuramente com os seus próprios alunos, descreve-se o funcionamento de uma disciplina, comum a cinco mestrados em ensino da Universidade do Porto, que recorreu à aprendizagem cooperativa como principal modo de trabalho pedagógico, e analisa-se a forma como os estudantes percecionaram essa experiência recorrendo a uma metodologia qualitativa. Os resultados revelaram que a maioria dos estudantes considerou o trabalho de grupo organizado de forma cooperativa uma experiência positiva e que a classificação final obtida foi justa tendo em conta o investimento individual para o esforço coletivo. De igual forma, perspetivaram como viável a aplicação da aprendizagem cooperativa com alunos dos ensinos básico e secundário. Os resultados desta investigação permitem sustentar que a formação inicial de professores deverá privilegiar abordagens pedagógicas que tornem visível a articulação entre determinados quadros conceptuais e a sua aplicação concreta ao nível do ensino como estratégia para aproximar a teoria da prática na formação dos docentes.
Analysis of CLIL teaching sequences for Primary Education
Authors: Estrada Chichón José Luis , Segura Caballero Natalia
Published: July 2022

This work deals with a meta-evaluation of the Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) teaching sequences (N=46) for Primary education provided by the Andalusian Consejería de Educación, Spain, in German and English. The objective is to present an analysis of the sequences concerning the integration of CLIL methodological principles throughout the theory-based reviews by pre-service teachers (n=42) who attended (2020-21) the subject AICLE I: Fundamentos y Propuestas Curriculares para el Aula de Primaria in German or in English of the Bachelor’s Degree in Primary Education at the University of Cádiz. This is a mixed-methods research with an exploratory sequential design, in which the CIPMA questionnaire (Custodio and García Ramos, 2020) was adapted to evaluate the sequences. Also, a focus group was carried out along with a significant representation of informants. The results reveal that, although the average evaluations of the sequences vary according to the foreign language (German: 1.78; English: 3.72), the order of scoring of the questionnaire dimensions is almost identical: Elementos Fundamentales de AICLE or Metodología; Recursos; and Evaluación. Nonetheless, the sequences do not integrate some CLIL methodological principles: resources (teaching materials related to real-life situations; the use of ICT to promote interaction and self-learning; etc.) and assessment (simplification or reduction of the content; summative and formative evaluation strategies; etc.). The difficulty of some activities is noteworthy as well as the inadequate treatment of the target languages, mainly German, regarding primary school students’ linguistic skills.

Introduction: Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) is a type of brain dysfunction that occurs when the brain doesn’t receive enough blood flow for a while. It may develop during pregnancy, labor and, delivery or in the postnatal period. Chief complaints: A 32-year-old gravida 6 para 6 patient (G6P6), came to the hospital with chief complaints of leaking, underwent emergency cesarean section due to severe fetal distress. A male baby was delivered flat, apneic, cyanosed, and with no heart rate. The 5-minute Apgar score was 3 and admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit. Investigations: Brain MRI revealed profound Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy. Cranial Ultrasound revealed dilated lateral ventricles. Abdomen Ultrasound was normal. Complete blood count, chemistry studies, blood gas values, and oximetry values were also taken. Diagnosis: From the above investigations, the infant was diagnosed with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy with severe birth asphyxia. Treatment: Therapeutic Hypothermia was initiated after attempting endotracheal tube cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the heart rate was recovered above 100 and followed by antiepileptic drugs. Syp.Keppra, T. Phenobarbitone, Rivotril drops, and Ventolin nebulizer were administered.

Published: July 2022

The current study involves the evaluation of sedative and hypnotic activity of fresh fruit juice of Actinidia deliciosa in experimental mice. Mice were orally administered with Actinidia deliciosa fresh fruit juice at a dose of 10 ml/kg and 20ml/kg and evaluated sedative and hypnotic activity by using animal models. The locomotor activity was tested by using an Actophotometer and the potentiation of pentobarbital induced sleep test and effect on muscle grip was analysed by using a rota-rod. Both the lower (10ml/kg) and higher dose (20ml/kg) of Actinidia deliciosa fruit juice showed dose dependent significant increase in sleep when compared with control. The locomotory activity was decreased in the locomotor activity test by Actophotometer, sleep time was prolonged in pentobarbital induced sleep time test, and muscle relaxant side effect was absent in the rota-rod test. The result obtained was comparable with that of the standard drug diazepam. The finding of the present study provides the evidence that the fresh fruit juice of Actinidia deliciosa can be beneficial against insomnia.

Authors: Devada Sindhu , Bhawna Saini , Sandeep Saini , Kumar Dhoot Dipesh
Published: July 2022

Anaphylaxis is a severe life-threatening reaction that may be associated with exposure to a variety of drug classes. β-lactam antibiotics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are most common classes of drugs causing anaphylaxis. Intradermal skin test (IST) is required in absence of previous history of allergy to antibiotics. In spite of negative intradermal skin testing, our patient had severe anaphylactic reaction after ceftriaxone administration but was managed successfully. This case report reflects the limitations of screening test done preoperatively for the diagnosis of sensitization to ceftriaxone antibiotic drug. Key Messages: Intradermal skin test is mandatory in all patients receiving first exposure of any new antibiotic drug. When a patient is negative after intradermal skin test, the drug should be given as slow intravenous infusion to prevent sudden and dreadful cardiovascular collapse.

Published: July 2022

Transfusion of blood and its components is integral part of patient health care management in today’s era. The blood and the blood components have no complete substitute till date. Therefore, every unit of blood and its components are very precious and should be utilized very cautiously. The blood components wastage is an important issue in health care system. The blood components wastage is generally due to poorly managed stock, poor storage, transportation along with local reasons of the respective blood bank. The present study was undertaken to analyze rate and the reasons of the discard of blood and blood components in tertiary care hospital blood bank for the period from January 2017 to December 2021. In the present study, the blood components discard rate was 4.46%. The discard rate of platelets was highest with 35.79%. The discard rate of whole blood, packed cells, Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) was 6.55%, 0.84% and 2.90% respectively. The shortest shelf life was the reason for the platelets discard and attributed to its highest discard rate. The other reasons of discard of blood components were transfusion transmitted infections (TTI), leakage, expiry, low volume etc. The large scale study to be conducted for identification of causes and percentage of blood components wastage and targeted intervention is needed for the effective reduction of blood components wastage.

Over the last decade the treatment of illness has been accomplished by administering drug to human body via various routes namely oral, sublingual, rectal, parental etc. Many advantages of gels a major limitation is in the delivery of hydrophobic drugs. So to overcome this limitation an emulsion based approach is being used so that even a hydrophobic therapeutic moiety can enjoy the unique properties of gels. The topical drug delivery system is generally used where these systems of drug administration fails or in local skin infection like fungal infection. Topical drug delivery can be defined as the application of a drug containing formulation to the skin to directly treat cutaneous disorder. The combination of hydrophilic cornified cells in hydrophobic intercellular material provides a barrier to both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances. Within the major group of semisolid preparations, the use of transparent gels has expanded both in cosmetics and in pharmaceutical preparations. Polymer can function as emulsifiers and thickeners because the gelling capacity of these compounds allows the formulation of stable emulsions and creams by decreasing surface and interfacial tension and at the same time increasing the viscosity of the aqueous phase. These Emulgel are having major advantages on novel vesicular systems as well as on conventional systems in various aspects. Various permeation enhancers can potentiate the effect, so Emulgel can be used as better topical drug delivery systems over present systems.

Topical drug delivery systems are gaining increase in the popularity and several drugs have been successful delivered by this route for both local & systemic action. In recent years most NSAIDs have been designed to deliver the drug in the form of topical gels, to avoid gastrointestinal irritation, to overcome “first pass” effect and to maximize the drug concentration at the site of action. Ibuprofen have been shown to have potent analgesic effect & anti-inflammatory activities, similar to Indomethacin and Diclofenac and due to its preferential CO-X blockade, it has been better safety than conventional NSAIDs with respect to the adverse effects on gastrointestinal & cardiovascular system. Ibuprofen used in the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, acute lumbago, & dental pain condition. Gels have a better potential as a vehicle to administer drug topically in comparison to ointment, because they are non- sticky requires low energy during the formulation. The formulated gel was evaluated for drug content, pH, spreadability, entrapment efficiency etc. Formulation of ibuprofen gel was prepared using HPMC/CMC, propylene glycol is used as permeation enhancer.

Published: July 2022

IndiHome (Indonesia Digital Home) is a leading digital fibre optic service product consisting of fibre optic internet services, landline telephones, and interactive TV services. Although the coverage of Indihome products is extensive in the city of Medan, in marketing, Indihome products have not reached the planned target. Based on data from Indihome service package users that have been received, Indihome product users only numbered 6419 customers in all STOs in Medan City. At the same time, the target was planned by PT. Telkom Access Medan, namely Marketing Indihome products, must reach 5,000 customers per month in all STOs in Medan City. Indihome product marketing is an obstacle for PT. Telkom Access Medan, because the Indihome product is a new product, the people of Medan City do not fully know what Indihome is and what facilities they get from using the Indihome service package. Therefore PT. Telkom Access Medan needs to make a plan to make a marketing strategy. The first step that needs to be done is to segment the market for the Indihome service package. This study aimed to determine the application of Data Mining using the K-Medoids Clustering method in the Indihome service package market segmentation at PT. Telkom Access Medan. With this research, it is hoped that it can provide a reference for the results of the decision so that it can help related parties to make it easier to classify the market segmentation of the Indihome service package at PT. Telkom Access Medan. Because the value of S > 0, then the calculation is stopped and ends in the 3rd iteration. Indihome service package data processing uses the k-medoids clustering method in the form of potential, potential, and not potential STO (Sentral Telephone Automated) cluster members.

Contextually, this paper employed the principle of line and staff administrative structure by Henri Fayol and the bureaucratic management theory by Max Weber to critically examine communication flow in the administration of Cultural Education in the Ghana Education Service. Attention is also drawn to the parameters and implications for delegation of authority in the service. Discussions were by extension centered on: the organizational structure for Music Administration in the Ghana Education Service as well as the duties and responsibilities of the officers. An interview section with regional and district coordinators produced data for analysis. The study found that; 1. The Cultural Unit across the continuum is hierarchically structured with specific rules governing the exercising of authority at each level, and appointments to positions are grounded in absolute technical competence. 2. Power is vested in the official positions and not in the personalities in charge of these posts. 3. The activities of the Cultural Coordinators extend beyond the organization of cultural festivals for pre-tertiary schools to the monitoring of pedagogical practices in the first and second cycle schools. Culture solidarizes nations with diverse ethnic groups, it is an economic asset, and by extension offers a sense of responsibility that makes people feel connected to their communities. It is, therefore, necessary to have adequate attention paid to its generational transfer to ensure continuity

A alimentação é uma das necessidades básicas dos seres humanos. Porém, atualmente, o padrão alimentar da população vem se tornando precário devido à falta de nutrição na alimentação diária, que se caracteriza por grande quantidade de alimentos industrializados, processados e ingestão abusiva de carne, que podem acarretar o surgimento de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT). A metodologia trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica, com o total de 23 artigos para esse estudo. O objetivo deste estudo é identificar os efeitos do consumo de carne na fisiologia humana. A dieta vegetariana tem sido cada vez mais procurada na população e apesar de poder ocorrer falta de certos nutrientes com essa dieta, se for feita com atenção e planejamento, pode ser facilmente aderida por qualquer indivíduo, sem prejuízo, podendo até mesmo evitar doenças fatais como câncer, doenças hepáticas e algumas doenças cardíacas. Logo, é de extrema importância ressaltar os efeitos negativos do consumo de carne pelo ser humano, e como uma dieta ovolactovegetariana pode beneficiar a saúde e qualidade de vida.
