musikalisch-dichtender Urwaldarzt
Authors: Riva Nepomuk
Published: September 2021

Die Berichte und erzählenden Schriften Albert Schweitzers aus Lambarene werden daraufhin untersucht, wie er Gabuner Musiken wahrgenommen hat. Dabei sind seine bereits in Europa entwickelten Vorstellungen von dem, was alles Musik sein kann, ausschlaggebend. Sie ermöglichen ihm, die afrikanische Musik in ihrem sozialen Kontext relativ unbefangen und positiv zu betrachten. Mit musikalischen Metaphern beschreibt er zudem die Klanglandschaft rund um Lambarene auf eine Art, aus der ersichtlich wird, dass er die Bedeutung von Musik für die Menschen besser verstanden hat als seine Zeitgenossen. Literarisch nimmt er dadurch manche Beobachtung vorweg, die erst folgende Generationen von Musikethnologen und Klangforschern ausbilden.
Caspar Glanners Liedersammlungen (1578 und 1580)
Authors: Bosi Carlo
Published: September 2021

Als die Sammlung der "Newen Teutschen Geistlichen und Weltlichen Liedlein" in zwei Teilen in München 1578 und 1580 bei der Druckwerkstatt von Adam Berg erschien, war ihr Autor wahrscheinlich schon tot, wie das am 17.8.1577 datierte Dokument nahelegt, das seine Witwe Ehrentrud erwähnt. Insgesamt umfassen die zwei Bände der veröffentlichten Sammlung 49 Lieder, darunter 21 im ersten und 28 im zweiten Band. Wahrscheinlich waren zwei weitere Bände für eine Veröffentlichung vorbereitet.

Ontologien in der Praxis
Authors: Münnich Stefan
Published: September 2021

The processing, dissemination, classification and verifiability of "resilient" knowledge represents some of the most pressing challenges facing society as a whole in this still young digital age. Information-theoretical ontologies that are integrated into the vision of the so-called semantic web can be of great use here. On the basis of examples of applications as well as of the explanation of basic concepts, mechanisms and challenges for the systematization and modelling of knowledge structures the current possibilities for a "semantic" digital musicology are shown.
Bibliothekarische Normdaten und digitale Musikwissenschaft
Authors: Wiermann Barbara
Published: September 2021

The paper presents the authority data provided by the German authority file (GND), its hisrory and conceptual founding in FRBR and FRAD. Referring to selected examples, the text scrutinizes carefully the potential and obstacles of using name authority data in digital humanities projects. However, the focus lies on the newly implemented work authority data that promises to be highly relevant for digital musicology. Challenges of theoretical concepts as well as practical realization are shown and different application scenarios are discussed. The author calls for a lively exchange between musicologists and librarians on the design and potential of the GND as basic musicological ontology.
Zu einigen Aktivitäten der Digital Musicology auf dem Gebiet der Älteren Musik
Authors: Morent Stefan
Published: September 2021

This paper discusses some of the increasing activities in the field of digital musicology. The focus being on early music prior to 1600 doesn't mean that the questions and methods presented here can't be applied to other periods or to musicology in general. However, particularly early music seems to profit in a special way by the use of digital methods, especially in the fields of notation history, transmission of manuscripts and performance practice. The paper presents an overview over various projects, approaches and techniques that were developed in recent years or that are still under development. It covers the fields of music encoding and visualization, digital editing, reconstruction of manuscripts and libraries, of melodies and parts, of virtual sound spaces and historical tuning and how this will open up new horizons for research in early music history.
Peschin, Ochsenkun und die Instrumentalpraxis am Hof Ottheinrichs
Authors: Lodes Birgit
Published: September 2021

The provenance and dating of the 'Klagenfurt' tablature A-Kla GV 4/3, the earliest organ source written in 'New German tablature', ranges in current literature from 'Carinthia c.1560' (Apel, Johnson, Novak 2017) to 'Augsburg or Munich c.1530' (Davies 2010). Based on striking parallels to Sebastian Ochsenkun's Lautenbuch of 1558, repertorial studies, and new documents, the author can demonstrate that the almost note by note intabulations of the 'classic' vocal repertory (6-, 5-, 4-voice motets by Josquin, Moliton, LaRue, Verdelot and Senfl plus other famous pieces like "Mille regretz") were made between 1539 and 1547 by Gregor Peschin who served as court organist to the music-loving Duke Ottheinrich of Palatinate-Neuburg. His more than 100 music sources, documented in an inventory of 1544, are almost entirely lost.
Ende der Neuen Musik
Authors: Von Blumröder Christoph
Published: September 2021

The term "Neue Musik" was coined for a special concept of fundamental musical innovation within Austro-German music theory of the early 20th century, and it found no terminological equivalent beyond the German language. Established by Paul Bekker with his lecture “Neue Musik” in 1919, composers such as Stockhausen or Ligeti embraced the term with its emphatic claim to innovation and new departures. However, one hundred years on the term "Neue Musik" is often used mainly as a synonym for any type of contemporary music. This article questions whether the term "Neue Musik" is still an appropriate framework for a current theory of musical composition. Not only have the specific musical circumstances changed within the course of the 20th century, but also the political and social conditions have altered drastically after two world wars which had given special impulses to those composers who strove for a new foundation of music after 1918 and 1945 respectively. This article argues that the age of "Neue Musik" has come to an end in the late 20th century, and thus it is now necessary to introduce alternative terminological concepts and methodical directions for music historiography.
Über Ziele und Ansätze der angewandten Musikethnologie als Ausdruck sozialer Verantwortung
Authors: Alge Barbara , Mendívil Julio
Published: September 2021

This article functions as an introduction to the following articles of this themed issue of Die Musikforschung. It frames the idea of an applied ethnomusicology, understood as an approach guided by principles of social responsibility, and as scholarship, knowledge and understanding put to practical use. The article discusses the emergence and relevance of applied ethnomusicology in Anglophone academia as well as the German-speaking world and gives insight into different fields in which applied ethnomusicology can be practiced: from traditional areas such as musical archives and museums to activism against social justice and for the rights of indigenous people and minorities, activism for musical and cultural sustainability or health, to musicological interventions in conflict situations and, finally, ethnomusicological contributions to music pedagogy. The authors do not claim to present a final definition of applied ethnomusicology, but rather aim to demonstrate the potential of this field and to show problems emerging in the course of ethnomusicological projects of an applied character.
Ausnahmezustand als Regel
Authors: Prieske Sean
Published: September 2021

This article presents methodological approaches for empirical research in the context of music and forced migration. Following theories from ethnomusicology, sociology, anthropology and cultural studies, the article explores four main aspects: first, the heterogeneity of the refugees requires an understanding of the diversity of musical practices and also raises the question how definitions of legal statuses impact cultural expression. Second, the significance ofmobility highlights local connotations of music in a globalized world where cultural identities fluctuate between multidimensional reference points such as nation, ethnicity or class. Third, specific ethical challenges arise when conducting research with refugees, which demand a critical self-positioning of the researcher and robust research ethics. Finally, the absence of music in some cases in the context of forced migration can offer insights into mediality of music and its sociocultural conditions. Each aspect is supplemented with a case study from my research practice. These reflections derive from ongoing field work for my PhD dissertation since autumn 2015 about music in the context of forced migration in Berlin. Based on this experience, this article aims to give some help and guidance for future researchers and practitioners, who work in the field of music and forced migration.
1727 oder 1729?
Authors: Stauber Burkhard
Published: September 2021

The parody relation between two outstanding works by J. S. Bach has not been satisfyingly explained: the Funeral Music for Leonhard of Sachsen-Anhalt for Köthen (BWV 244a) and the St Matthew Passion (BWV 244). The scanty documented evidence does not allow us to decide unequivocally the precise year of the first performance of the St Matthew Passion (1727 or 1729). However, a detailed comparison of the text-music relationship makes it possible to discern which of Picander's texts of those ten movements which are potentially related as parodies, either those of 244a or 244, were originally first composed for the music of the early Passion version (BWV 244b). In five movements the music was almost certainly composed to Passion texts, in four movements the Funeral texts seem to have generated the music of BWV 244b. In one movement the choir part was very likely composed to the Funeral text, the soloist part to the Passion text. Therefore it seems likely that the St Matthew Passion was composed and performed in 1728/29 simultaneously with the Funeral Music, a unique instance in Bach's parody technique which merits further investigation.
Fragen zum tradierten Persönlichkeitsbild Wolframs von Eschenbach und seiner Wahrnehmung in Wagners "unvollendet" gebliebener Oper Tannhäuser und der Sängerkrieg auf Wartburg
Authors: Jung-Kaiser Ute
Published: September 2021

Richard Wagner regarded his opera Tannhäuser and the Singer's Contest on the Wartburg as unfinished: Shortly before his death in 1883 he declared that "he still owed the world the Tannhäuser". His irritating confession, which lacks an explanation why he considered Tannhäuser incomplete, provides the starting point for studying Wagner's understanding of the dramatic effects, the function of the protagonists, as well as the differences between Wagner's literary sources in addition to variant traditions. Especially the iridescent and multi-layered reception of the figure of Wolfram von Eschenbach, which began already in the Middle Ages, makes it difficult to arrive at clearly defined answers. However, particularly aspects of Wolfram's self-stylizations in his literary works, opinions of his contemporaries, and compositional procedures in Wagner's writings and opera suggest that some of Wagner's intended corrections would have concerned Wolfram's person, image and inner intentions.
Cognitive Computing and its Relationship to Computing Methods and Advanced Computing from a Human-Centric Functional Modeling Perspective
Authors:   Nobeah Foundation Kenya, E. Williams Andy
Published: September 2021

Recent advances in modeling human cognition have resulted in what is suggested to be the first model of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) with the potential capacity for human-like general problem-solving ability, as well as a model for a General Collective Intelligence or GCI, which has been described as software that organizes a group into a single collective intelligence with the potential for vastly greater general problem-solving ability than any individual in the group. Both this model for GCI and this model for AGI require functional modeling of concepts that is complete in terms of meaning being self-contained in the model and not requiring interpretation based on information outside the model. The combination of a model of cognition to define an interpretation of meaning, and this functional modeling technique to represent information that way together results in fully self-contained definitions of meaning that are suggested to be the first complete implementation of semantic modeling. With this semantic modeling, and with these models for AGI and GCI, cognitive computing and its capacity for general problem-solving ability become far better defined. However, semantic representation of problems and of the details of solutions, as well general problem-solving ability in navigating those problems and solutions is not required in all cases. This paper attempts to explore the cases in which it is, and how the various computing methods and advanced computing paradigms are best utilized in each case from the perspective of cognitive computing.
The Im(possible) Oblivion and the Artificial Memory : from Writing to the Web
Authors: FERNANDEZ VICENTE Antonio
Published: September 2021

This article tries to explain how the digital technology works as an artificial aide-mémoire from a psychological and sociological point of view. The essay attemps to present precedents of the iterative use since we are connected 24/24 through the smartphones, reflected as a tool abolishing the possibility of oblivion. The saturated informational environment and, indeed, the huge quantity of data stored in the Cloud might be seen as a true memory prosthesis. Actually, life on screen and life in digital stock means the disappearance of the capacity of forgetting when since almost everything has been digitized, we could access to this kind of data every time and everywhere. Our approach derives from the Plato’s conception of writing, in the Phaedrus. The invention of writing would produce forgetfulness instead wisdom, as we can read in the mentioned dialogue: “Their trust in writing, produced by external characters which are no part of themselves, will discourage the use of their own memory within them”. Nonetheless, oblivion can be considered as a right and even a must for the individual, as we have learned from Nietzsche and Freud. We remember the tale by Jorge Luis Borges, named “Funes, el memorioso”, or the surrealistic paintings by Salvador Dalí on the clocks and the persistence of memory. The technique object as an externalization of human abilities works as a disqualification of human being as well. And in order to make us capable of forgetting, we should find out the effects of the Web in human memory and oblivion.
Architecture and Forgetting: the Memory in Ruskin
Authors: LAVENUE Mathilde
Published: September 2021

Writer and English fine arts critic of the 19th century, John Ruskin is the author in 1849 of The seven lamps of architecture. This theorical work tries to define the fundamentals of architecture. One of the seven chapters of this book, “the sixth lamp”, is dedicated to the memory and those links with architecture. This development is based on forgetting but this question is treated by the way with the antonym : the memory. In a dynamic approach where nostalgia and value judgment are ruled out , memory is developped by the substitution of forgetting. This thinking on the memory obliged Ruskin to attribute to architecture a memory finality that differs from the commemoration aim of the monument. In fact with this term, Ruskin asks the question of the meaning of architecture and calls out to the sense of the space’s creation and uses. Those reflexions contribute to put the question of the architecture’s permanency. The term of memory offers to him the opportunity to examine the notion of time and the period’s representation by building concrete spaces. With this singular consideration, he shows that architecture offers to the man the possibilty to come within through the space and the time with architectural objects which are the evidences of living and building. Architecture would becoming with this approach a kind of building’s archives, that will support the partial and biased memory, in a dynamic and dialectic way between erasing the tracks and the conservation of the stratums.
Television, Happiness Is in Social Networks
Authors: SPIES Virginie
Published: September 2021

Contrairement à l’idée répandue selon laquelle la télévision ne s’intéresserait qu’au malheur, catastrophes et faits divers, il a été observé que les chaînes mettaient en œuvre un discours sur le bonheur. Qu’il s’agisse de renforcer leur pouvoir discursif ou bien d’un discours marketing ayant pour but d’attirer les annonceurs, nombre de programmes (en combattant les injustices, ou à travers des émissions de télé-coaching) prétendent changer la vie des téléspectateurs. Avec l’arrivée des réseaux sociaux (notamment Facebook et Twitter), ce mouvement est désormais renforcé. Chaque chaîne et chaque programme (série, émission de flux, journal télévisé) possède son propre compte et s’y exprime afin de faire la promotion de l’émission et d’entrer dans une forme d’interaction avec son public. On constate cependant que ce nouveau discours de la télévision sur les réseaux sociaux n’est autre qu’un discours marketing qui ambitionne de donner une image encore plus heureuse des programmes : on diffuse des images « off » de la préparation des émissions, images dans lesquelles les animateurs semblent être très heureux d’être au travail, et on sélectionne les tweets les plus joyeux des téléspectateurs pour les diffuser à l’antenne ou pour les « retweeter ». Du côté de la fiction, bon nombre de séries proposent une forme de métadiscours qui s’appuie sur ce discours premier. On pense par exemple à la série américaine Scandal qui, grâce aux réseaux sociaux, a pu conquérir de nouveaux fans. En prenant l’exemple de la série Scandal aux États-Unis et de Plus belle la vie en France, cet article se propose d’analyser les discours émis par les chaînes sur les réseaux sociaux. Le discours est toujours positif, et les représentations du bonheur offrent une nouvelle forme de réflexivité, qui s’appuie sur un dévoilement des coulisses et un constant discours sur soi-même. Dès lors, ce texte tendra à analyser les enjeux de la télévision à l’ère du web 2.0 à travers la manière dont les chaînes mettent en œuvre de nouvelles formes discursives, qui ont pour but de renforcer l’image positive des programmes télévisuels.
Fuzzy-Based Multi-Crop Classification Using High Resolution UAV Imagery
Authors: Saeed Sajjad
Published: September 2021

Accurate information regarding crop classification is important to estimation crop yield. It is used to depict the relationship between exponentially growing world population and food demand. The purpose of this research is to recognize multiple crops in a single UAV-based image. The task itself is chaotic as every crop exhibits similar hue, color and other plant characteristics. In this paper, an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is proposed to classify 17 different crops based on their high spatial and temporal signatures of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values acquired through multispectral sensor onboard a quadrotor. The multispectral images were classified into two classes (soil and crop) and NDVI signatures for each crop were extracted from images. Detailed dataset was prepared as a timeline through sampling, covering almost all phenological phases of the crops. The NDVI dataset was passed through ANFIS to classify NDVI vectors. ANFIS had only one output variable: the crop type that was formulated from 8 input variables. ANFIS used 2 membership functions for one input variable and formulated 256 fuzzy rules for the classification. The results show a high level of classification accuracy.
Analysis of Traditional Hard Disk Scheduling Algorithms: A Review
Authors: Khuhro Mansoor A. , Bamboat Mustafa A. , Kumar Kamlesh , Halepoto Imtiaz A. , Mirbahar Naadiya , Khan Ghulam S.
Published: September 2021

This review paper compares the various disk scheduling algorithms that are used to schedule processes in a queue, such as FCFS, SSTF, SCAN, C-SCAN, LOOK, C-LOOK, OTHDSA, and Zone Base Disk Scheduling, and then applies all of these techniques to two data sets to assess the performance of each algorithm. The comparison includes updated and improved techniques that show promising results in collecting data from the digital store. The comparison results were also contrasted with supporting the statement that all disk scheduling algorithms' technique offers much better performance. The comparison shows that among all disk scheduling algorithms, OTHDSA has excellent performance and takes a search time of 250 to complete all requests in a queue.
A Comparative Study of the Voltage Sag Propagation under Un-Symmetrical Faults through Distribution Transformer on Low Voltage Power Network
Authors: Junejo Abdul K. , Keerio Muhammad U. , Koondhar Mohsin A. , Memon Munawar A. , Jamali Muhammad I. , Kanwar Kelash
Published: September 2021

In this paper, the characterization of the voltage sag propagation under unsymmetrical faults through distribution transformer for low voltage power network is tested with the help of a power analyzer, which is based on sequence components. The voltage sag is a big issue of the power quality (PQ) for the power system networks, which must be analyzed and characterized for the suitable protection schemes and the control strategy, separately. In this study, the voltage sag characterization is fully examined under the unsymmetrical faults through the delta-star with ground (D-Yg) connection, which is commonly imlemented in the distribution power transformers. The MATLAB/Simulink and power analyzer tools are used to characterize the voltage sag propagation. The power analyzer works on the symmetrical sequence component’s method of the voltage. Moreover, the phasor diagram of the voltage sag is also given in this paper for better understanding. The obtained results would help in the design of the protection schemes for low-voltage and controlling the impact of voltage sag through filters.
HANDS HYGIENE AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT – MONITORING OF THEIR APPLICATION IN THE NURSES' CLINICAL PRACTICE
Authors:   Department of Health care, Faculty of public health and health care, Ruse University ", Koleva Greta ,   Angel Kanchev ",   , Ruse, Bulgaria.
Published: September 2021

Purpose: Health care-associated infections (HCAIs) are considered infections that are contracted by the patient in connection to the medical service of another disease. The mechanism of transmitting microorganisms via contact is the most important and common one of disease transmission. This research aims to monitor activities requiring hand disinfection and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) by the nurses in a real hospital environment. Material and methods: The research is held in May 2019 via a secretly structured monitoring in natural conditions at four wards in the University Hospital Kanev Ltd, Ruse, Bulgaria, on randomly selected weekdays. Results: A total of 320 procedures of the nurse's daily activity are being monitored, which are connected to infections with both blood and body fluids, as well as the risk of looking after patients who are unable to look after themselves. In the Ward of Orthopedics and Traumatology, gloves are being used in all of the monitored activities, but after contact with a patient, only the hands are being washed. When expected to be contaminated with blood and body fluids, the nurses don't always use gloves and also don't always disinfect their hands before aseptic procedures and when they bandage a wound. Conclusions: The nurses don't follow the requirements for hygienic handwashing and the use of PPE. The goal of the current research was not about explaining whether this is due to a lack of knowledge of cases where the use of gloves or protective equipment is required and how and when the hands are washed.

Authors:   Medical College, Medical University - Varna, Bulgaria., Tsvetkova Antoaneta , Mihaylova Silvia ,   Medical College, Medical University - Varna, Bulgaria.
Published: September 2021

Objective: The impact of socio-economic factors on the increased incidence of chronic diseases requires changes in the policy of health authorities. In view of that, the study tried to investigate the role and consequences of those factors on T2DM and thus contribute to future development of comprehensive programmes for screening, diagnostics and treatment. Methods and materials: Forecasting the incidence rates of diabetes on a national and regional scale using regression analysis of results from municipal programs between 2015 and 2019 in Varna. The following models were studied: linear, cubic, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, power, growth and inversion. Data processing and analysis were performed with the software set SPSS Statistics and graphical analysis with Microsoft Excel. Results: A constant rise in the number of diabetes cases was identified. At national level, mortality among females was higher than mortality in males, while at local level (Varna), such correlation was not established. Costs for the studied groups steadily increased during the studied period. Healthcare services for people with diabetes mellitus cost 2.5 times more than that of people without diabetes of the same age group.
Pozyskiwanie nowych technologii oraz modernizacja uzbrojenia z wykorzystaniem offset transakcji wiązanych
Authors: Rawska Katarzyna
Published: September 2021

Artykuł Pozyskiwanie nowych technologii oraz modernizacja uzbrojenia z wykorzystaniem offset transakcji wiązanych dotyczy specyficznej formy dwustronnej współpracy gospodarczej, która towarzyszy zakupom uzbrojenia i sprzętu wojskowego. Offset jest zjawiskiem globalnym, integralną częścią przemysłowej polityki obronnej i jednym z instrumentów kształtowania gospodarczych podstaw bezpieczeństwa. Zapewnienie bezpieczeństwa państwa w obecnych warunkach stwarza coraz większe dylematy, a tym samym zmusza podmioty zapewniające owo bezpieczeństwo do rozwiązania bardziej złożonych, wieloaspektowych problemów. Umowy offsetowe jako forma złożona, są zawierane na styku polityki bezpieczeństwa narodowego, polityki gospodarczej, biznesu i w pewnym sensie polityki zagranicznej. Prawo offsetowe, choć rożnie regulowane w rożnych krajach, jest chętnie stosowane, gdyż stwarza możliwości ominięcia barier handlowych, pozwalając wejść na hermetyczne rynki, jak również jest narzędziem pozyskania nowych technologii oraz pozyskania nowych rynków dla własnych towarów.

Constitucionalizando los Principios de Abiyán sobre el derecho a la educación: Claves para el proceso chileno
Authors: Contreras Orrego Valentina , Silva Vicente , Dorsi Delphine
Published: September 2021

El derecho a la educación no es sólo un derecho humano en sí mismo, sino también un derecho de empoderamiento, multiplicador y transformador: “un medio indispensable de realizar otros derechos humanos”.264 Como tal, constituye un proceso continuo de experiencias y aprendizajes vitales que permite que las personas de forma individual o colectiva puedan desarrollar su personalidad y el máximo de sus capacidades, integrarse en la sociedad e interactuar con otros y con el medio ambiente con pleno respeto a los derechos humanos. Bajo esta perspectiva se encuentra reconocido en diversos tratados universales y regionales de derechos humanos y en una serie de compromisos políticos del foro internacional. Sin perjuicio de lo anterior, muchas lagunas normativas aún persisten respecto a su implementación, especialmente en contextos globales donde la privatización y la mercantilización de la educación han ganado espacio. Los denominados Principios de Abiyán buscan precisamente hacerse cargo de este desafío al ofrecer guías para los Estados en relación con la garantía de una educación pública, gratuita y de calidad por una parte, y la regulación de la participación del sector privado en su provisión, por otra. En este contexto, este artículo argumenta que los Principios de Abiyán permiten hacerse cargo de las brechas constitucionales del derecho a la educación en Chile en relación con temas clave tales como el propósito de la educación, los sistemas de educación pública, el financiamiento, la libertad de elección de la escuela y la privatización de la educación. De esta forma, el proceso chileno ofrece una oportunidad institucional única para integrar por primera vez los Principios de Abiyán en un mecanismo de creación constitucional, y con ello transformar un sistema educativo marcado por la segregación y la desigualdad.

Conviction or Evocation: On the Limits and Potentials of the Contemporary Concept of Values of Games
Authors: Shakeri Moozhan
Published: September 2021

The past decade has seen a gradual but steady increase in the use of games beyond mere entertainment, lending games a new role that has not been embraced with universal assent. Some consider it as domestication, bastardization, and colonization of games and play. Others consider games and a gaming frame of mind an inevitable characteristic of a livable world in the twenty-first century. The games’ struggles in finding their new functional place are often framed as a political or practical matter. The solutions, therefore, are sought in understanding the existing power relations, improving the quality of design, or addressing technological barriers. The epistemic nature of these struggles, however, often remains overlooked. Inspired by the works of Medieval Persian philosophers on the value of art, in this article I aim to unravel the added value of treating these struggles philosophically. The article presents how the narratives around instrumental and intrinsic values of art vis-à-vis science are shaped and evolved in Western and Persian philosophy. It then outlines the limits of the contemporary understanding of the value of art and its consequences on the design and use of communication media. The article concludes by arguing that the solutions to such struggles can be sought in reaching a better understanding of artworks and how they can be legitimized in practice and policies.
“Destruction Operation”: Iranian-Made Digital Games of the Iran–Iraq War (1980–88)
Authors: Shahnahpur Saeedeh
Published: September 2021

The Iranian digital game industry flourished in 2002 as a result of a cultural war with Western game productions. Since then, the Iran–Iraq war (1980–88) has been one of the most significant themes of gaming and game design. These games are used as a visual medium to entertain, educate, and communicate the cultural and ideological values of the war to Iranian youth, who constitute the majority of these games’ enthusiasts. Most war games in Iran were modeled after successful Iranian military operations. They were primarily intended to replace Western war games (e.g., Call of Duty and Battlefield) and to impart a distinct Iranian-Islamic wartime culture. The following discussion revolves around a narratological analysis of four Iranian-made digital games on the Iran–Iraq war. This examines the way in which the design of the various elements—such as event, character, and setting—corresponds to the official discourse on the war.1 The games were selected based mainly on their popularity in society as claimed by the game’s official Web site. These elements play a crucial role in articulating the Iranian-Islamic national identity, which is inextricably bound to Islamic, and particularly Shi‘i, teachings.
Politics of Language in Video Games: Identity and Representations of Iran
Authors: Rad Siavash Rafiee
Published: September 2021

This article addresses the role of the language of identity politics in video games by exploring games dealing with significant contemporary events in the history of Iran. Video games are no longer exclusively viewed as pastime activities but are assessed as a means to soft power. As a form of popular culture, video games can be used to excavate cultural and political bias and prejudices, to name a few. While the representations of gender and race have received extensive attention, language and its role in understanding the politics of video games remain an underresearched domain. This study investigates how exploring the linguistic signifiers in video games can shed light on the normative approach that video games take: first, in order to present certain cultural and political stereotypes in specific historical contexts, therefore othering certain identities; second, to shape the identity of gamers in such a way as to converge with those norms through creating a third space. Finally, the article demonstrates how the choice and use of linguistic codes in the game can further empathy or the lack thereof through selective choice of controversial historical contexts, where gamers indirectly become active participants in fomenting certain political representations.
Who Are Abraham’s Children?
Authors: Rae Murray
Published: September 2021

One of the goals of theological interpretation of Scripture is to assist the church in critical reflection upon its own practice as it seeks to understand and to live within the biblical story of God’s dealings with the world. Drawing upon Joel Green’s scholarly investigation of the nature of conversion in Luke-Acts, this article offers a critical reflection upon practices of exclusion in the church in New Zealand. I argue further, in accordance with Luke-Acts, that participation in the purposes of God, or being numbered among the children of Abraham, is not a matter of privileged descent, but consists in the redirection of one’s life in community with others towards the fulfilment of God’s eschatological purposes evident in Christ. Māori Christians, I suggest, have a good deal to teach the wider church in this regard.
TOWARDS A LABOR RIGHT WITH A HUMAN FACE
Authors:   PhD, National University Three of February Buenos Aires, Chartzman Birenbaum Alberto
Published: September 2021

There can be no development without human rights, just as there are no human rights without development. Furthermore, peace and security are essential for development and respect for human rights. A phrase that sums up and frames very well what the 2030 Agenda means: a roadmap to the world that we want and that we are already building. To help stabilize an economic model in democracy that puts the human person at the center and promotes social inclusion must create conditions that allow decent work. The challenges posed by globalization need human faces for world, regional and national development, through the reaffirmation of essential and universal values. In this context, work constitutes an ethical value, a decisive and determining factor for production. From this premise arises the right to work as a source of personal dignity, family stability and consolidation of social cohesion. It synthesizes the aspirations of people during their working life. It means the opportunity to access a productive job that generates a fair income, security in the workplace and social protection for families; better prospects for personal development and social integration, and equal opportunities and treatment for women and men. Decent Work, that ethical-evaluative assessment designed by the ILO in the 90s at the 89th annual meeting, today in 2021 is still a search paradigm. We are convinced that the worker must be the central axis of the system, subject to preferential guardianship. For this we need all workers to respect their fundamental labor principles and rights, enjoy a fair income, a work environment without gender discrimination or of any other type, where social protection is provided.

Published: September 2021

Toplumların ekonomik ve sosyal refahı için fiyat istikrarının sağlanması oldukça önemlidir. Bu nedenle, gelişmiş veya gelişmekte olan ülkelerde fiyat istikrarını sağlamaya yönelik birçok strateji uygulanmıştır. Enflasyon hedeflemesi stratejisi de bunlardan biridir. Enflasyon hedeflemesinin temel amacı fiyat istikrarı sağlamak ve devam ettirmektir. Fiyat istikrarı, ülke ekonomilerinin düzgün işleyebilmesi için birincil koşuldur. Bir ekonominin sağlıklı işlediğinin göstergelerinden biri de adil gelir dağılımıdır. Gelir dağılımındaki eşitsizlik, gelişmiş ülkelerde bile önemli bir sorun olmaya devam etmektedir. Literatürde, enflasyon oranı, ekonomik büyüme ve işsizlik oranı ile gelir dağılımı arasındaki ilişki birçok defa analiz edilmesine rağmen, bu ilişkiyi enflasyon hedeflemesi kapsamında inceleyen çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, enflasyon hedeflemesi stratejisi uygulayan 8 gelişmiş ve Türkiye’nin de dahil edildiği 8 gelişmekte olan toplamda 16 ülkenin 2002-2016 yılları arasında gerçekleşen enflasyon oranı ve gelir dağılımı arasındaki ilişki panel veri analizi ile sınanmıştır. Modelin anlamlı ve bir bütün olarak yorumlanabilmesi için büyüme ve işsizlik oranları da modele dahil edilmiştir. Birim etkili sabit etkiler modeli için gerekli varsayım testleri sınanmış olup, Driscoll-Kraay Standart Hatalar Tahmincisi ile varsayımdan sapmalar düzeltilerek nihai yorumlanacak ekonometrik model elde edilmiştir. Buna göre enflasyon ve işsizlik oranları yükseldikçe gelir dağılımının bozulduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

Published: September 2021

Demansın en yaygın karşılaşılan türü olan Alzheimer hastalığının yaşlanma ile birlikte görülme sıklığı artmaktadır. Alzheimer yaşlılık döneminde karşılaşılan en yaygın psişik hastalıklardan biridir. Bilişsel işlevlerde meydana gelen bozulmalar zamanla ilerlemekte ve zamanla hasta bireyler günlük kişisel ihtiyaçlarını karşılayamaz duruma gelmektedir. Cümle kurmada yaşanan sorunlar ileriki aşamada iletişim sorunları yaşanmasına neden olmaktadır. Alzheimer vaka sayısının her geçen gün artmasıyla birlikte, sosyal çalışmacılar gerek yaşlı bakım merkezlerinde gerekse de hastanelerde daha sık bir şekilde Alzheimer hastaları ile karşılaşmaktadır. Sosyal çalışmacılar, Alzheimer tipi demans hastaları ve aileleri ile psikososyal terapiler, sanat terapisi, anımsama terapisi, destek grupları, bilişsel davranış terapisi gibi müdahaleleri gerçekleştirebilir. Anımsama terapisi, benlik saygısını artırmak, sosyal izolasyonu ve depresyonu azaltmak ve yaşlı nüfusta rahatlık sağlamak için etkili bir müdahale yöntemidir. Bu makalede anımsama terapisinin Alzheimer hastalarında kullanımının önemine vurgu yapılması amaçlanmıştır.

This article shows a way to store the data of many S-101 charts into a single Postgres database. The data model of the database with all tables is shown and explained. The concatenation of the indices from the different database tables is explained. This concatenation allows for a faster search of points/curves with certain properties. This fulfills one of the basic requirements for the purpose of navigating an autonomous vessel – that several charts can be interpreted simultaneously by a machine. Mechanisms for up-dating the database with new charts not yet present in the database are shown. Also the mechanisms for updating the charts already present in the database are explained. System limitations are briefly presented to show that in practical use there are in fact none. Memory requirements for such a type of chart storage in the database is compared with memory requirements for ISO8211 files normally used for storage of S-101 charts. With small examples it is finally shown how the stored chart information can be searched specifically.

Published: September 2021

This paper observes different alignment conditions in a journal-bearing-supported machine (i.e. propeller bearings within the stern tube of a marine vessel). A test rig is built so that the driven machine has fixed supports, roller bearings in an electrical motor. An alignment tolerance is met at the coupling of the journal, which is positioned within three journal bearings. This research can be applied to any industry with machines of the same characteristic. The journal bearings are designed to simulate the large tolerance seen in a vessel’s stern tube only for lubrication control oil is used for the bush bearings. Various sensors are placed on the test rig to record data for later machine analysis. Using proximity probes and accelerometers the vibration of the journals and ball bearings can be visualised using orbital plotting and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) through both LabVIEW and MATLAB respectively. Four alignment procedures are applied to the coupling using a laser unit. The first two will be so that the offset and angular misalignment is produced in the FFT spectrums as per ISO10816 Mechanical vibration so that a reference point is formed for the test rig. The other two alignment procedures represent current industry practice. These procedures are then compared to see which is the preferred reference point that will optimise the reliability value of a whole system. Finding the procedure with minimal vibration will increase the design life of housing structures for such machines, which will increase the overall profit of the shipping industry. Our developments and procedures will be further utilized in practical classes to improve maritime engineering education.
Some Problems Related To The Exploitation Of Automated Container Terminals
Authors:   Nikola Vaptsarov Naval Academy, Gancheva Yana
Published: September 2021

Automation is considered as the basis for the introduction of the fourth industrial revolution in ports and for the implementation of a number of innovations. Often the actual results of container terminal automation do not match the expectations of terminal operators. Through the application of scientific methods of investigation – monitoring, comparative analysis, analysis and synthesis of existing publications on the subject – some problematic issues have been established, such as the lack of common standards, pressure by trade unions, processing of exceptions, etc., calling into question the implementation of any good automated terminal project. The synergistic approach in the modeling, construction and exploitation of automated container terminals leads to the conclusion that, on one hand, a solution to the above issues should be sought in the cooperation between all port stakeholders (automation system manufacturers, software developers, terminal and logistics operators, carriers). On the other hand, the competitiveness of automated container terminals depends on the skills of the port specialists. They must be prepared for the monitoring, analysis and management of automated systems, they must be adequately qualified for the integration of systems and for the processing of exceptions, they must be able to foresee the consequences of each of their actions for the whole system.

Until recently marginalized, noise pollution has become a significant source of external transportation costs. Noise costs have currently reached a respectable share of 7%, an increase of 3.5 times in the last five years. No other item of external transport costs shows even close to such growth, and the total increased by only 8% in the same period. Raising awareness of the harmfulness of this kind of contamination has contributed to better perception and detection of noise. Stricter and more thorough valorization of traffic noise has led to an increase in the share of external noise costs. Using or installing expensive noise protection equipment and new knowledge about the noise harmful effects on health contribute to the same trend. Noise pollution should be considered as an obligatory item in the assessment of sustainability in modern transport today.
