Published: September 2020

Debido a la demanda que tiene la harina de pescado en el mercado nacional e internacional por su calidad y alto contenido de proteínas, las empresas productoras de harina buscan garantizar la calidad de su producto que va de la mano de tres etapas principales dentro de la línea de producción (cocción, prensado y secado), se optó por rediseñar un cocinador de 60 t/h con vapor indirecto para mejorar su eficiencia de consumo de vapor, evitar la contaminación de la materia debido a estancamientos de la misma y calcular los factores físicos mecánicos y térmicos que conlleven al dimensionamiento y a la selección del material idóneo para la fabricación del equipo. De esta forma aplicando las ecuaciones fisicomatemáticas existentes y ecuaciones cuasi experimentales se consiguió el debido dimensionamiento de la maquina tanto en la parte mecánica como térmica, logrando un cocinado continuo y transporte adecuado. Con los diagramas de fuerzas cortantes y flexionantes se determinó el momento máximo de 385675,38 N.m que debe soportar el eje helicoidal; para soportar dicha carga se seleccionó el acero ASTM A36, que además es de fácil soldeo y dúctil. Como parte del rediseño se eliminó puntos muertos dentro de la máquina, permitiendo de esta manera aumentar el área de transferencia de calor dando como resultado un menor consumo de vapor de hasta 35%. También se creó un código de programación en MATLAB (GUIDE), que permitirá dimensionar cocinadores de pescado con la misma configuración geométrica para distintas capacidades.

Perdão e saúde: tensões entre memória e esquecimento
Authors: Caminha Andréa Lima do Vale
Published: September 2020

A questão que queremos investigar é saber em que medida a relação passado-presente-fu­turo, marcada por recordações traumáticas, não exigiria o ato de perdoar como forma de se alcançar a cura dessas recordações? Nosso ponto de partida para tratar dessa questão foi o texto O perdão pode curar? , de Paul Ricoeur, filósofo e estudioso da Psicanálise Ricoeur afirma que a atitude de não perdoar nos faz ficar doentes. Na nossa compreensão, quando se perdoa, não se está esquecendo, mas eliminando-se uma dívida por meio de uma atitude generosa de ressignificar os fatos do passado que não se pode mudar, mas lhe atribuir um novo sentido. Dessa maneira, o perdão é libertador, pois ele é cura para a memória, que pode ser encarada não apenas como uma ferramenta de guardar dados mnemônicos, mas, sobretudo, como uma capacidade de (re) significar ou (re) criar o passado.
USE OF PSEUDO NOISE CODING SEQUENCE CYCLIC SHIFTS FOR TELECOMMUNICATION CHANNEL PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT
Authors: Pliushch Oleksandr
Published: September 2020

An approach is proposed to design of noise immune and concealed data transfer channel for telecommunication networks. Attention is paid to securing hidden information transmission, as well as its protection from interception by rogue actors. The approach is based on the desired bits spectrum spreading and their additional scrambling by using pseudo noise coding sequences derived from primitive polynomials of eighth and fifteenth orders, which possess good auto and inter correlation properties. It is studied performance of the telecommunication channel that includes frames of 128 bit length, each of which is spectrally spread 256 times with the help of a synthesized pseudo noise coding sequence. The second 32768 chip-long pseudo noise coding sequence is used to mark the frame duration and perform additional information scrambling.

Computer simulation is used to study performance of the designed telecommunication channel. The computer simulation helped to establish that the processing of the additive mixture of the desired signal and interfering ones, which surpass the desired signal two times in terms of power, by the matched filters permits to confidently reveal the information frame structure being transmitted by determining frame beginning pulse and establish the bit values of the desired information. Further improvement of information protection from interception is proposed to achieve by using cyclic shifts of 32768 chip-long pseudo noise coding sequence. Computer simulation helped to find out that ignorance of the cyclic shift leads to inability of information interception by the rogue elements. Research results, obtained in this paper, permit to claim that the designed telecommunication channel, with cyclic shifts according to a secret rule, could be successfully used in practical implementations of noise immune and concealed telecommunication networks.

Authors: Gnatyuk Sergiy , Sydorenko Viktoriia , Sotnichenko Yuliia
Published: September 2020

The rapid development of information and communication technologies has increased the vulnerabilities of various networks, systems and objects as well as made it much more difficult to ensure their reliable protection and security. All these factors have led to the fact that the world's leading countries have begun to pay considerable attention to cybersecurity and critical information infrastructure protection. However, the protection of various types of information with restricted access (in particular, confidential information) at critical infrastructure objects remains unexplored. With this in mind, the paper analyzes the existing approaches of the world's leading countries to the confidential information protection at critical infrastructure. The analysis revealed that today there are no comprehensive, multifunctional methods of protecting confidential information at critical information infrastructure. In addition, the classification of critical information infrastructure objects according to information security requirements is developed. This classification by determining the type of processing information, possible access modes and criticality category, allows to ensure unity of approaches to protection of these objects belonging to different types, including information systems, automated control systems and information-telecommunication networks.
Effect of IFAD-VCDP on Input-Output Commercialization of Rice Farmers in Niger State of Nigeria
Authors: SADIQ Sanusi , SİNGH I. P. , AHMAD Muhammad Makarfi
Published: September 2020

The present research empirically determined the effect of IFAD programme on output and input commercialization among rice farmers in Niger State of Nigeria using field survey data elicited from 111 participants and 185 non-participants (90 and 95 non-participants from exposed and control groups respectively) drawn via multi-stage sampling design. The collected data were analyzed using Heckman’s model. The empirical finding showed that the programme has no effect on output commercialization due to the poor market outlet as a result of no provision of established off-takers. However, the input support aspect of the programme mandate exerts an effect on the input commercialization among the farmers in the studied area. Furthermore, the poor incentive for extension agents, non-productive large household dominated by weaker people and one-way income traffic affected output commercialization among the rice farmers in the study area. Therefore, based on these, the programme should link the farmers with off-takers so as to sustain the viability of the programme even after its life span. In addition, to tackle poor extension contact, the farmers should effectively and efficiently use their social capital to introduce farmer to farmer extension approach by using private extension service as the technical support unit.
Appropriateness of Vascular Access Device Selection
Authors: Viveiros Ashlee
Published: September 2020

Central venous access devices (CVADs) are associated with serious complications, including central line associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI), that place patients at risk for poor outcomes and are costly for hospital systems. Research suggests great variability of CVAD use in hospitals including overuse and inappropriate use of these devices which places patients at unnecessary risk for complications. Each unique patient situation involves multiple characteristics that adds complexity to their hospitalization. Clinicians make decisions regarding line selection often during emergent situations without the appropriate level of evidence to support this decision, which results in inconsistencies and variations in the use of CVADs. Vascular access nurses, specialized clinicians who place and maintain vascular access devices (VADs) in hospitalized patients, are often involved in decision making regarding VAD use. Providing these specialized clinicians with the latest evidence-based decision support tools and the knowledge needed to interpret this information to determine the most appropriate VAD for an individual patient may impact VAD utilization. Empowering vascular access nurses to appropriately evaluate and decide if a patient meets the criteria for CVAD insertion prior to placement could prevent unnecessary exposure to potentially dangerous and costly complications. The proposed project objectives include introducing an evidence-based guideline for use by the vascular access team to support VAD selection for hospitalized adult patients at a large academic medical center. Decision support guidelines are composed of evidence-based recommendations from Michigan Appropriateness Guide for Intravenous Catheters (MAGIC) resources. The algorithms to be implemented address various complex patient scenarios that challenge clinicians when choosing the most appropriate VAD. Project goals include improving appropriateness of VAD selection through recommendations from vascular access nurses using MAGIC resources as evidence-based guidelines in clinical decision making. Achieving these goals may result in a decrease in inpatient CVAD use and a reduction in serious complications associated with CVADs. Objectives are aimed at improving the quality of patient care by using the latest evidence for vascular access recommendations. Improved quality of care can reduce health care costs by preventing serious and life-threatening complications that prolong the hospital length of stay and require additional unnecessary therapies and hospital readmissions.

Published: September 2020

Heart rate can be considered an accurate indicator of physical effort because it may unravel important data about one of the most important training and/or game factors: physical effort intensity. Few researches have referred to the heart rate of players practicing minifootball or futsal. Our research focused on assessing heart rate during exercise, namely during the futsal game. During the games, we monitored heart rate beat by beat, using Geonaute technology. Our study found that the average HR during exercise ranged between 102 beats/minute and 147 beats/minute; the arithmetic mean is 129 beats/minute; the expansion is 45 beats/minute, while the arithmetic mean of HRmax is 209 beats/minute. This stands to show that players frequently exceed the Fcmax limit, generally recommended by scientific literature.

A SHORT REVIEW: PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF WINE FROM FIG FRUIT (FICUS CARICA)
Authors: Prabha Annavarapu Venkata Naga Kaumudi
Published: September 2020

Fig is one of the oldest fruit species cultivated in the Mediterranean basin, and it can be widespread in warm and dry climates around the world.  Turkey is the primary producer and the tree can bear up to two crops per year which is depending upon the fig type, quality can be differing from season to season. Figs can be eaten fresh, dried, or processed into different types of products. They are low in organic acids and high in sugars so it is sweet-tasting fruit. Their phenolic content is medium and higher in red cultivars which hold high levels of anthocyanins. The total carotenoid in the fig is quite low and mostly concentrated in the fruit's peel when compared with other fruits. Fruit drying is the easiest way of fig fruit preservation. The traditional sun-drying method yields produce with diverse quality. Automated air dehydration has several advantages and makes fruit with high sugar content and high total phenolics. Anthocyanins and carotenoids are lost during the drying process.  The consumption of figs should be encouraged as it contains high beneficial effects and potential healthy alternative for sweets.

Authors: Poleshuk Denis , Maksimova Svetlana , Poleschuk Viktorya , Ponomarenko Svetlana , Tabakaev Anton
Published: September 2020

Expanding the range of functional food products is one of the important tasks of the Russian state policy to improve the population health. Water bioresources due to their high biological value consists of the potential for creating such products. The article presents the technological characteristics of the Pacific salted sardine (iwasi) as a promising highfat raw material rich in valuable natural lipids for multi-component emulsion products. The Pacific sardine (ivasi) extracted in the far East is a mass object of marine fishing. However, the food production from the sardines is currently limited by frozen and salted fish. In order to expand the food product range from the Pacific sardine (ivasi), the paper concerns the technological parameters of the salted fish production process and justification of its use as a basis for emulsion systems. The authors present technological scheme for obtaining salted Pacific sardine (iwashi) from frozen fish. The dynamic analysis of proteolysis indicators during the storage period of salted sardines indicates an active accumulation of protein breakdown products during the protein component destruction. Organoleptic assessment of salted fish performed in the third and fourth months of storage showed that, in the absence of discrediting organoleptic signs in the samples under study, a man recorded the destruction of the abdominal area in the fourth month of storage. The rheological studies results of finely ground muscle tissue of salted sardines, in comparison with frozen fish, demonstrate an increase in these indicators in the proteolysis process. Biochemical, rheological and organoleptic characteristics of salted Pacific sardine (iwasi) in the fourth month of storage indicate its high raw material potential for use in the technology of emulsion products.

Feature selection technique is a technique to reduce data dimensions which are widely used to find the set of features that best represent data. One area of science that often applies this technique is bioinformatics. An example of its application is the selection of significant proteins in the case of Down syndrome. To find out the most influential protein, experiments were carried out on normal mice with trisomy rats (down syndrome mice) totaling 1080 sample and obtained 77 levels of protein expression. The analysis carried out was divided into three groups. Each group was searched for the most influential proteins using genetic algorithms with fitness calculations using random forest algorithms. The results of the protein selection of the three data groups indicate the relationship of the selected proteins to the improvement of learning ability and memory. The results of evaluating selected protein models show a high degree of accuracy, which is above 98.7% for each data group.

Published: September 2020

O objetivo deste artigo é realizar uma análise comparativa das políticas públicas brasileiras e uruguaias de inclusão digital. Realizou-se o histórico das políticas públicas de inclusão digital no Brasil, com ênfase no Programa de Inovação Educação Conectada e no Uruguai e no plano “Conectividad Educativa de Informática Básica para el Aprendizaje em Línea” (CEIBAL). Para tal, a produção deste artigo foi sustentada pelo método comparativo nas perspectivas da pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Constatou-se que, embora o Brasil e Uruguai tenham dispositivos legais semelhantes para difundir propostas de inclusão digital educacional, as realidades brasileira e uruguaia diferem-se no ciclo de vida de suas políticas, principalmente em sua prossecução. O Uruguai, com o plano CEIBAL atingiu a meta de 100% de conectividade à internet na educação pré-primária, primária e secundária no país e, no Brasil, observou-se pontos críticos de implantação de políticas públicas de inclusão digital, devido a descontinuidade da sistematização de projetos que exigem sustentabilidade e prazos longos para a sua consolidação.
Investigating causes of informal market for fresh meat: the case of Tirana prefecture, Albania

Published: September 2020

This study is about the level and factors of informality concerning the fresh meat market in the prefecture of Tirana-Albania. Sample data for 200 households have been used to carry out the study. Descriptive statistics, linear and logistic multinomial econometric modeling techniques are used to analyze the data. The level of informality is 34%, while its major factors are the level of price, as well as safety and quality of meat. Other determinants are household’s income and consumption quantity and ineffective public monitoring system, while the education of the household’s header seems of dubious effect. Important policy implications would be improving the legislation, regulations and the tax system performance. Other recommendations would be improving the rule of law to prevent informal selling and stimulate legal trade. Design and maintain a pro-poor business policy for a positive investment climate encouraging employment and income generation is a priority. Rigorous control of production standards and stimulation of good farming practices as well as improving detection and the use of repressive measures would be some necessities but also tough challenges for the future.

This study assesses methodologies used during the selection of pilot products for the support to development of sustainable geographical indication projects by using the FAO/EBRD project as a case study. Relevant pilot products are essential to provide stakeholders with concrete experience, demonstrative effects and lessons learned in order to disseminate bets practices and facilitate scaling-out of sustainable GI processes. Qualitative data were transformed to quantitative data for product selection because data for local products were insufficient, and standard data were unavailable for each product. Analytic hierarchy process (AHP), simple scoring and geographical indication assessment form were used together as product selection methods. Gemlik Olives, the first registered geographical indication product in the Bursa province, was included during assessment as a control group. Six local products with a potential for GI registration were considered for pilot product selection to serve as demonstrative process. Results suggest that the most important selection criteria were “reputation of the product” and “power of the organisation” and first two ranked products selected for the project were Bursa Black Figs and Bursa Peaches.
Geriatrik Bireylerde Fonksiyonel Bağımsızlığa Sanal Gerçeklik Temelli Denge Eğitiminin Etkileri: 1 Aylık Takip Çalışması

ÖZ
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, geriatrik bireylere verilen sanal gerçeklik temelli denge eğitiminin fonksiyonel bağımsızlığa etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya; 65 yaş ve üzerinde, son 12 ay içerisinde en az 1 kez düşme hikayesi olan, kognitif etkilenimi olmayan ve Berg Denge Skalası’na göre denge problemi olduğu saptanan 5’i erkek, 12’si kadın toplam 17 birey dahil edilmiştir. Katılımcıların fonksiyonel bağımsızlık seviyeleri eğitim öncesinde ve sonrasında Fonksiyonel Bağımsızlık Ölçeği kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Katılımcılar 4 hafta boyunca, haftada 2 gün 30 dakikalık toplam 8 seans denge eğitimi almıştır. Sonuçlar: Berg Denge Skalası total puanında (p=0,001), Fonksiyonel Bağımsızlık Ölçeği’nin Kendine Bakım (p=0,013), Transferler (p=0,001), Hareket (p=0,0001) ve Sosyal Algı (p=0,004) parametrelerinde ve toplam skorda (p=0,001) eğitim sonrasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artışlar saptanmakla beraber, 1 aylık takip süresinin ardından iyileşmenin korunduğu tespit edilmiştir. Tartışma: Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, sanal gerçeklik temelli denge eğitimi, geriatrik bireylerde fonksiyonel bağımsızlığı artırmaktadır. Uygulaması kolay ve maliyeti düşük olan bu yöntemin olumlu sonuçlar vermesi, fonksiyonel bağımsızlık seviyeleri düşük olan geriatrik bireylerin rehabilitasyonunda kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir. Ancak bu konuda daha büyük örneklem grupları ile daha uzun süreli takibin yapıldığı ve kontrol grubunun olduğu çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
