HOFIZ KHOREZMI’S "DEVON" AND PHYTONYMS
Authors:   Doctor of Philosophy in Philology (PhD), Uzbekistan, Maratovna Madaminova Rayhon
Published: October 2024

This article discusses one of the components of onomastics, phytomymics (phyto-Greek. Phyton-plant), and their usage in Hofiz Khorezmi’s "Devon." The study analyzes the skillful use of plant names by the poet for artistic purposes and the creation of artistic devices. Until now, the phytomymics in this work had not been the subject of study. During the analysis, the plant names used in Hofiz Khorezmi’s "Devon" are examined, categorized into semantic groups, and their variants—Arabic, Persian, and Turkic—are identified. Furthermore, the meanings these words convey in "Devon" are compared with how they were used in the works of Beruni, Mahmud Kashgari's "Devonu lug'otit turk," Alisher Navoi, and Babur. The forms of plant names used in the Uzbek literary language and how they are explained in the Uzbek explanatory dictionary are also analyzed. Examples are provided to explain phytomymics whose meanings have expanded today. The article compares how these phytomymics are explained in B.V. Miller's “Persian-Russian Dictionary,” the “Tajik-Russian Dictionary,” and the "Explanatory Dictionary of the Uzbek Language," conducting an etymological analysis. Additionally, the poetic devices created through these phytomymics are explained with examples. Each phytonym is given a specific definition. For example, "Isiriq" is a perennial wild plant from the family Zygophyllaceae. It contains alkaloids and is used in folk medicine for its healing properties, including being burned as incense. In modern Uzbek, the word "isiriq" has served as the root for words like "isiriqdon" (incense burner) and "isiriqchi" (incense seller). The word "isiriq" was borrowed from Persian into Old Uzbek. In "Devon," this borrowed word appears seven times in the sense of "isiriq" and "isiriq seed." This information enriches the article. The study holds significant value in examining the lexicon of the work. The materials researched in the article will be useful in creating the “Dictionary of the Language of Hofiz Khorezmi’s Devon," the "Dictionary of Borrowed Words in Uzbek," and the "Dictionary of Written Monuments," as well as in teaching specialized courses to students in the philology faculties of higher educational institutions.

Published: October 2024

For the first time, recyclization of allomaltol derivatives with an amide fragment in the side chain were investigated. It was shown that the studied process leads to substituted tetronic acids bearing a pyrrolidinone moiety. The application of 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole and DBU is necessary for implementation of the considered reaction. Based on the performed research a general method for the synthesis of a wide range of (3E,5E)-3-(1-hydroxyethylidene)-5-(5-oxopyrrolidin-2-ylidene)furan-2,4(3H,5H)-diones was elaborated. The advantages of the presented protocol are easily available starting compounds and simple isolation of the target products without chromatographic purification. The synthetic utility of the prepared tetronic acids was demonstrated by further transformations at the hydroxyethylidene fragment. The structures of one obtained tetronic acid and one product of derivatization were confirmed by X-ray analysis.

Published: October 2024

Screen plays, including cartoons, are a crucial part of children's lives, helping to satisfy their energy and keep them engaged both at home and in school. Research has found that aggression and violence are prevalent among primary school pupils, and scholars have called for further investigation into the possible causes of this issue. Biological and personal factors such as family dynamics, fear of abandonment, punishment, sexual assault, and domestic violence have been studied extensively. However, little research has been conducted on the impact of entertainment media, specifically cartoons, on primary school students' aggression and violence. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the influence of cartoons on the attitudes of children towards violence and aggression of primary school pupils in Niger state. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. Purposive sampling technique was adopted in selecting 120 primary school pupils from 12 schools across the three senatorial zones in Niger state. Four research questions were answered and questionnaire was used as instrument for data collection. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and T-test at 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that cartoon had a positive influence on primary school pupils (x ̅ =1.44 on a threshold of 1.50). Also, it was discovered that cartoons affects pupils’ time to focus on productive tasks (x ̅ =1.62 on a threshold of 1.50), among others. The result of the difference between pupils’ reaction to cartoons based on gender showed that there was a significant difference (t = -3.28; df = 248; p<0.05). Also, the result of the difference between the reactions of pupils to cartoon among public and private schools pupils indicated that there was a significant difference (t = 2.70; df = 248; p<0.05). Following these findings, recommendations are made for parents to pay greater attention to presenting their children with carefully chosen cartoons that could have a positive impact on them. For the teachers, it was recommended that they should create a classroom environment that is less conducive to aggressive or violent behaviour so as to curb whatsoever the pupils might have learnt in their respective homes. Pupils are advised to be aware of their attitudes towards aggression and violence and take steps to stop such behaviour among themselves and their peers. Recommendations are made for curriculum planners to incorporate media literacy and social-emotional learning into the curriculum. Policy makers are advised to develop guidelines for media content, invest in research, and provide funding as these would aid in promoting positive attitudes towards aggression and violence among cartoon viewing pupils.

Incongruencias en la Compensación por Servicios Ambientales desde el MADES del Paraguay
Authors: Decoud-Fernández Juan Carlos , Fernández-de-Chávez María Estela
Published: October 2024

La protección del ambiente se basa en un sistema de principios jurídicos que se refuerzan mediante una interpretación y una aplicación holística e integral. Esta premisa sirve como marco de análisis de la Resolución N° 207/2021 del Ministerio del Ambiente y Desarrollo Sostenible (MADES) del Paraguay. Dicha normativa debilita al esquema de pago por servicios ambientales, el cual promete una retribución justa y oportuna a las personas que generan tales servicios. A través de un enfoque hermenéutico, se procede a una discusión que recurre a un cuerpo legislativo y doctrinario como marco para el examen crítico de la resolución referida. Se concluye que la inobservancia de la razonabilidad, la motivación, el interés público, la progresividad, la no regresión, la integralidad, entre otros principios administrativos y ambientales, determina una regulación que resulta incongruente con las finalidades de protección y conservación de los recursos naturales. Considerando el contexto de deterioro ambiental, así como los fundamentos legales vigentes, se sugiere, finalmente, la derogación de dicha reglamentación.

Published: October 2024

A continuación, se presentan los resultados finales de una (tesis doctoral) tipo estudio de caso único global, para optar al título de doctor en educación, que responde a la pregunta ¿cómo diseñar una unidad didáctica para la enseñanza de la química ambientalizada desde la toma de postura de dilemas morales post convencionales, de 21 jóvenes de secundaria que se enfrentan a una Cuestión Socioambiental (CSA) real del entorno de la cuenca media del río Tunjuelito (CMRT)? La metodología se desarrolla en tres fases cada una con parte A y B en las cuales se utilizan instrumentos como el juego de roles, la entrevista semi estructurada, las representaciones sociales. En cada fase se obtiene una gradación cognitiva para la construcción de dilemas morales que en la etapa final se usaran como elementos cognitivos propuestos para servir como armonizadores entre las tensiones de la CSA y las posturas de los jóvenes de secundaria al interactuar con los conceptos de la química en dicha unidad didáctica. Asu vez, se promueve la heteronomía de voces, que evitan el sesgo de género (posturas masculinas y femeninas), propio de dilemas morales post convencionales. Con estos resultados, se propone una línea de investigación con gran potencial para la formación de profesores de química en secundaria, interesados en la didáctica de CSA que demanda el desarrollo moral de sus estudiantes para la participación en la toma de decisiones.

Nowadays, the demand for electrical energy is increasing due to the application of electrical equipment such as air conditioning, refrigerators, television, computers etc. Grid-connected photovoltaic is a network that allows for significant penetration of electricity by PV generation into the national utility grid under Net Energy Metering (NEM) incentive. Under NEM incentive, the owner can offset the energy for 10 years to reduce the electricity billing. Unfortunately, after that, the self-consumption (SELCO) program is implemented. Under SELCO program, the energy generated by PV will be consumed by the owner and there is no rebate for excess energy to the grid. This paper represents the techno-economic analysis of different rated power of PV design installed for residential applications. The 1.04kWp, 1.56kWp and 2.08kWp PV are designed to charge 5.544kWh battery and simulated by using PVsyst software. The payback period is calculated under Net Energy Metering (NEM) 3.0 incentive. As a result, 1.56kWp is the optimize sizing for grid-connected PV-battery with electricity billing saving at RM730.20 per year under one-on-one program and RM660.61 under SELCO program.

Laccases are a versatile enzyme with immense potential in various biotechnological applications. In this study, the protein structure prediction of laccase from Geobacillus uzenensis, a bacteria known for its robust enzymatic activity is focused. The protein structural elucidation of this laccase is crucial to understand its substrate binding and overall functionality. Protein structure can be determined by computational prediction, which is commonly known as homology modelling. The three-dimensional (3D) model was built based on the available crystal structures of related laccase enzymes and aligned with the primary sequence of the target protein. The resulting model exhibited a high degree of structural similarity and conservation of key catalytic residues, supporting its reliability for further analyses. Firstly, the suitable template was identified with 85.61% of sequence identity determined by sequence alignment. Then, MODELLER program was used to predict the model using the method of satisfaction of spatial restraints. The model was then analyzed for its quality by computational analysis tools such as Ramachandran's Plot. Finally, the binding site of the protein was identified using the GRaSP computational tool. These findings provide significant insight on comprehensive analysis of the laccase from G. uzenensis, by providing a structural framework to unravel its functional properties and substrate specificity.

Synthetic image data generation has gained popularity in computer vision and machine learning in recent years. The work introduces a technique for creating artificial image data by utilizing 3D files and rendering methods in Python and Blender. The technique employs BlenderProc, a rendering tool for generating artificial images, to efficiently create a substantial amount of data. The output of the method is saved in JSON format, containing COCO annotations of objects in the images, facilitating seamless integration with current machine-learning pipelines. The paper shows that the created synthetic data can be used to enhance object data during simulation. The method can enhance the accuracy and robustness of machine-learning models by modifying simulation parameters like lighting, camera position, and object orientation to create a variety of images. This is especially beneficial for applications that require significant amounts of labelled real-world data, which can be time-consuming and labour-intensive to obtain. The study addresses the constraints and potential prejudices of creating synthetic data, emphasizing the significance of verifying and assessing the generated data prior to its utilization in machine learning models. Synthetic data generation can be a valuable tool for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of machine learning and computer vision applications. However, it is crucial to thoroughly assess the potential limitations and biases of the generated data. This paper emphasizes the potential of synthetic data generation to enhance the accuracy and resilience of machine learning models, especially in scenarios with limited access to labelled real-world data. This paper introduces a method that efficiently produces substantial amounts of synthetic image data with COCO annotations, serving as a valuable resource for professionals in computer vision and machine learning.

Green Computing Innovation (GCI) aims to address the negative effects of traditional computing on the environment and promote sustainable practices in computing. Subsequently, the Green Computing Innovation Index (GCII) was used to measure young inventors' inventiveness to evaluate from green computing perspectives. Nonetheless, one of the most significant challenges evaluators face in the measurement process includes uncertainty and imprecise data in measuring the young inventors' green computing innovation. Thus, this paper measures the Green Computing Innovation Index (GCII) with a novel approach utilizing Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) with the Mamdani method. The study measures the top 10 young inventors' innovations from the Faculty of Computing and Meta-Technology, UPSI. Fuzzy Inference System will assist in providing improved decision-making solutions for evaluators to prevent any uncertainty and subjectivity during the evaluation process. The development of FIS is based on four key innovation elements. It uses a triangular membership function with Centroid, Middle of Maximum (MOM), Smallest of Maximum (SOM), Bisector and Largest of Maximum (LOM) methods for defuzzification. The centroid defuzzification method is observed to perform better than other defuzzification methods. It is due to the fact that the adopted defuzzification approach is equally sensitive to all key innovation criteria inputs and can truly represent the minor change in the values of any parameters across all products. The centroid method was found to be the most efficient for decision-making, providing precise results with the ability to detect discrepancies as small as 0.001. Thus, the centroid method can improve decision-making efficiency, leading to fairness in selecting the best green computing innovation product. Ultimately, GCII rating contribute mainly on encouraging young inventors to innovate and promote sustainable practices in innovations.

The traditional textile craft in Malaysia has yielded a plethora of remarkable fabrics. Among the most exquisite Malay textiles is Telepuk Textile. However, the Telepuk craft has dwindled in popularity and demand over time. The laborious production process reliant on Telepuk woodblocks has impeded the development and revival of this craft. No woodcarvers currently produce Telepuk woodblocks as part of their repertoire. Artisans also grapple with the challenge of producing Telepuk cloth in substantial quantities and introducing innovative designs without new Telepuk woodblocks. This study delves into the design strategy to rejuvenate the declining Telepuk craft. Employing a mixed-method research approach, we collected primary data through semi-structured interviews with experts. We conducted a quantitative survey to evaluate proposed designs and analyse pertinent secondary data. In summary, this research yields three critical findings for revitalising the Telepuk craft: (i) Harnessing the intrinsic value of traditional crafts like Telepuk can heighten awareness among the younger generation. (ii) Collaboration between designers and artisans emerges as the linchpin of the craft's revitalisation strategy. (iii) Transforming the production process and introducing innovative designs for Telepuk woodblocks can expedite the development of Telepuk craft production using current technology. The forces of globalisation and escalating demand for mass-produced, homogeneous items have fuelled a yearning for more meaningful products, particularly those imbued with cultural significance. The revival of lost crafts, such as Telepuk textiles, aligns with sustainable design principles. This study contends that the resurrection of traditional crafts like Telepuk necessitates incorporating appropriate technology and pragmatic design to uphold cultural heritage, enhance production processes, and cater to contemporary demands. The new Telepuk woodblock designs have been rigorously tested and developed based on survey results. The resulting designs must strike a practical balance between contemporary technology and artisanal craftsmanship. The suggested revitalisation strategies can be adapted incrementally and selectively, contingent upon the capabilities of the artisans.

This study explores the impact of fixed damper openings on indoor thermal comfort in a lab-scaled chamber. Experiments with maximum, medium, and minimum iris damper openings were conducted under various occupancy conditions. Results show that the maximum opening maintained temperatures close to the ideal 24°C with minimal fluctuations. In contrast, medium and minimum openings resulted in higher temperature variability and less efficient air distribution. Statistical analysis highlighted significant differences in temperature stability among the different damper settings. The maximum opening ensured a stable temperature range, while the minimum opening caused noticeable temperature stratification and discomfort, especially with more occupants. The findings indicate that fixed damper openings are inadequate for maintaining consistent thermal comfort due to their lack of adaptability. This underscores the need for advanced control systems that can dynamically adjust damper positions to ensure optimal indoor temperature regulation and improve energy efficiency.
