Learning activities in the Fundamentals of Photography course which have been running so far have experienced several obstacles including the absence of teaching materials specifically designed to be effective, efficient, and attractive in learning. Some basic photography material should be carried out in practice, but in reality, it must be delivered in theory given the limited time and learning resources and the low learning outcomes and results of student creativity in the field of photography which does not meet the standards for completeness assessment. To overcome these problems, competence-based and production-oriented digital teaching materials are developed which are valid and suitable for use in learning activities as well as for student self-study. This research is a type of development research using the Dick and Carey model with the final product being a digital textbook developed with the help of the Sigil application. The approach used is a competency-based and production-oriented learning approach. Before testing D3 Multimedia Computer STT STIKMA Internasional student, validation was carried out on material experts and media experts, which were then corrected according to the expert's assessment. Data from the trial results during implementation activities in learning were analyzed using descriptive statistics and questionnaire calculations from respondents using criteria from the Likert scale. Indicators of success and feasibility of measuring digital teaching materials are assessed from the feasibility of content, presentation of content, language, graphics, and assessment at the end of learning activities. The results of validation by experts and trials on students show that basic digital photography teaching materials have the feasibility and validity to be used as a supplement in facilitating student learning and practicum learning while taking photography basics courses.

Published: March 2023

The circulation of illegal drugs continues to increase from year to year, including during the COVID-19 pandemic. The circulation of these drugs must be disciplined and guarded so that the public is not harmed in terms of health or materially because the illegal drugs in circulation do not meet product and drug distribution standards. The research aims to explore the government's role in overcoming the distribution of drugs that are banned from circulating freely during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data comes from secondary data obtained by study documents, especially legal documents, including primary and secondary legal materials. Based on a study of the 1945 Constitution and health legislation found that the government must be responsible for tackling the circulation of drugs that are illegal from circulating freely to realize comprehensive public health. To deal with the distribution of drugs that are banned from circulating freely, the government established the Drug and Food Control Agency (BPOM) which oversees the distribution of pharmaceuticals and food in Indonesia. The supervision of drug distribution starts from the drug produced or before it is marketed (pre-market) to the drug marketing process (post-market).
The Influence of Density Dependent Death Rate of Predator Species to the Lotka-Volterra Predator Prey System with Fear Effect
Authors: Li Qianqian , Zhu Qun , Chen Fengde
Published: March 2023

A Lotka-Volterra predator prey system incorporating fear effect of the prey species and density dependent death rate of predator species is proposed and studied in this paper. Local and global stability property of the equilibria are investigated. Our study shows that the density dependent death rate of predator species has no influence to the persistent or extinction property of the system. However, with the increasing of the density dependent death rate, the final density of the predator species is decreasing and the final density of the prey species is increasing. Hence, the increasing of the the density dependent death rate enhance the possibility of the extinction of the predator specie. Numeric simulations show that too high density dependent death rate and too high fear effect of prey species may lead to the extinction of the predator species.

Published: March 2023

Several research results in the Indonesian Capital Market have found a market anomaly phenomenon caused by the market reacting to internal and external information. This study aims to examine whether companyspecific factors (company size, growth, and risk), national macroeconomic factors (Inflation, interest rates, and exchange rates on a national scale), and world macroeconomic factors (market returns, Inflation, interest rates, and world-scale exchange rates) ) may cause the Indonesian Capital Market to react. The form of this research is associative descriptive with a population of all companies indexed by LQ45, totaling 45 companies. According to purposive sampling, the sample used is 22 companies, and data analysis using panel data regression with the help of software Eviews 12. The study's results found that only national interest rates and world inflation could cause the Indonesian Capital Market to react. In contrast, size, growth, risk, national Inflation, world returns, world interest rates, and world exchange rates did not cause the Indonesian Capital Market to react.

Authors: Kiritsis Konstadinos H.
Published: March 2023

In this paper is studied the stabilization problem by state-derivative feedback for linear time-invariant continuous-time systems. In particular, explicit necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the stability of a closed-loop system, obtained by state-derivative feedback from the given linear time-invariant continuous-time system. Furthermore a procedure is given for the computation of stabilizing state-derivative feedback. Our approach is based on properties of real and polynomial matrices.

The Burden of Recognition in the Unilateral Declaration of Independence by Kosovo
Authors: Nte Timothy Ubelejit
Published: March 2023

Fourteen years after its Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI), Kosovo is not still an international legal personality. The major challenge that Kosovo has is neither recognition nor non-recognition but the withdrawal of recognition (WR) by countries that hitherto recognised it after the UDI. Evidently, the recognition of Kosovo has not only stagnated but it is retarding because of WR by some states. On 13 May 2022, Serbian Foreign Minister declared that there is WR by four additional countries bringing the total number of WR to twenty-two. The specific objective of the study is to evaluate the circumstances that precipitated the UDI of Kosovo and the reasons why its recognition is retarding. Accordingly, the study is guided by four research questions. The constitutive theory of statehood is the theoretical framework of the study. The study adopted the quality research methodology. The quagmire generated by the UDI of Kosovo compelled the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to seek the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ). There are a couple of reasons why the recognition of Kosovo is stagnating. The most important reason is to forestall a dangerous precedent for other secessionist movements. Some states still hold tenaciously to the illegality of Kosovo’s UDI despite the ICJ’s ruling. On 30 July 2022, the Prime Minister of Spain declared that the UDI of Kosovo is a violation of international law. The study recommends that the United Nation should clearly spell out the conditions for secession and recognition of States.

The Corona Virus Pandemic: Was Africa Caught Flatfooted?
Authors: Mwanzia Mary , Owino Edward , Ntara Caroline
Published: March 2023

Despite an earlier warning about the occurrence of coronavirus in future, the world seems to have been caught by surprise. In particular, Africa did not appear to have the financial readiness to afford vaccines or healthcare for the affected. The World Health Organization (WHO) proclaimed COVID-19 a global health crisis in January 2020. Since its detection in Wuhan, China, the infection moved to Europe, particularly Italy in early March and eventually spread to the rest of the world. However, in Africa, the pandemic could have brought unprecedented damage with ripple effects to economies. From the events following the pandemic, it appeared that Africa was not prepared. This study is structured as a research paper that interrogates the literature and presents the key elements of pandemic preparedness for Africa. The new conceptual model can guide researchers and policymakers in conducting further research for scholarly discourse and practical application.

Weather factors, like other inputs such as land, labor, seeds, irrigation, fertilizer, and pesticides are also direct inputs in crop production. In a state of agriculture where the adoption and diffusion of modern technologies is very low or almost nil, weather factors count more than other inputs because of their direct and indirect effects. Thus, the link between weather and crop yield will have implications on food supply and crop forecasting and management policies. It is of immense importance to the policymakers, agricultural scientists, agricultural economists, and meteorologists to understand this relationship. The methodology for studying this relationship has undergone many improvements over time. This paper attempts to review the studies in this area done in India and a few from abroad that brought an evolution in the methodology of crop-weather modeling.

Authors: Sánchez Rivera William Omar , Larreal Bracho Alonso José
Published: March 2023

El siguiente artículo aspira como propósito principal realizar un avecinamiento a la actual instrucción y a los concebimientos que los docentes de educación del nivel de bachillerato de la ciudad de Santo Domingo poseen referente a la de la pedagogía de la muerte y su implícita importancia en la educación. Este proceso investigativo se focalizó en los postulados teóricos de Martínez et al., (2020), de la Herrán et al., (2020), entre otros. Metodológicamente la investigación se cataloga como documental bibliográfica, donde se llevó a cabo una revisión de documentos de trabajos realizados que plantearon la temática descrita. Como recursos conclusivos se propuso que todos los estilos de liderazgo empleados dentro del entorno educativo se articulan en un ambiente cooperativo en el cual las interrelaciones interpersonales y la comunicación son cruciales al abordar el asunto del óbito; las propiedades de todos los estilos de liderazgos permiten hacer una aproximación estrechamente relacionada con la composición metodológica sobre la pedagogía de la muerte. Pese a ello se concluyó que la reacción que asume el profesor frente al deceso es dependiente en parte importante de características psicométricas frente al deceso y las apreciaciones o concepciones asimiladas a lo largo del transcurso de su vida.

Published: March 2023

Yaşlılık bireylerin başta anatomik yapı, fizyolojik işlevleri olmak üzere sosyal ilişkilerinde, zihinsel yeteneklerinde ve psikolojik durumlarında değişimlere neden olan olağan bir süreçtir. 20. yüzyıldan itibaren sağlık ve teknoloji alanında yaşanan gelişmeler, doğum hızının azalması, temel halk sağlığı hizmetlerinin yaygınlaşması, beslenme koşullarının iyileşmesi, birçok bulaşıcı hastalığın kontrol altına alınması gibi etkenler doğuştan beklenen yaşam süresinin artmasına neden olmuştur. Bu artış özellikle gelişmiş ülkeler başta olmak üzere bütün dünyanın en önemli toplumsal sorunlarından birisi olarak önem kazanmaktadır. Ancak yaşlılık ile ilgili deneyimler kişiden kişiye değiştiğinden dolayı bu dönem kimileri için iyi kimileri için ise kötü bir dönem olarak değerlendirilebilmektedir. Yaşlılığın iyi veya kötü olarak nitelendirilmesine etki eden en önemli faktörlerden birisi yaşlı bireylerin içinde bulundukları durumu kendi bakış açılarına göre yorumlamalarıdır. Bu çalışmada yaşama kalitesi ve özellikle yaşlılıkta yaşam kalitesinin göstergeleri, boyutları ve ölçümüne ilişkin literatürde yer alan farklı çalışmalar ve görüşlere yer verilmiştir. Ayrıca yaşlıların yaşlılığa ilişkin algılarını etkileyen faktörler ve yaşlılığa ilişkin bireysel perspektif bakış açısı ele alınmıştır.
The Hidden Bones Apocalypse: The Marker, Its Message, and their Hiddenness
Authors: Lightner Charles R.
Published: March 2023

There is an unusual phrase that occurs only fourteen times in the Hebrew Bible. Those fourteen occurrences mark the accounts of ten highly consequential days. The essential messages of those ten accounts, when taken together, create and convey a unified and coherent communication. The presence of the phrase, its uniqueness to those days, and the message it creates, are hidden in translations. Readers of the biblical text in English, Greek, Latin, and German versions have no reason to associate the ten marked days. The phrase and its message are effectively hidden even from those who use the Hebrew text; having been obscured by the tradition of interpretation extending through rabbinic literature and commentary. The message created by reference to those ten marked days is representative of early Jewish apocalypse literature. This paper identifies and analyses the marker phrase, identifies the days that it marks, interprets the message created, demonstrates the hiddenness of that message, and argues its character as an apocalypse.

Keywords: Hebrew Bible, Apocalypse, Bible Translation, Early Rabbinic Literature, Rabbinic Commentary

Scottish Government Educational Research Policy: Co-opting School-based Research and Deskilling Teachers
Authors: Holligan Chris
Published: March 2023

A common idea of research lies in association with virtues of open-mindedness, pursuit of truth and the liberation of humanity from burdens of prejudice. Aside from this blue skies picture of scientific research we have practitioner research designed by teachers to improve
the quality of the education they provide in classrooms. And third, there is policy research by government, which is designed to monitor and implement political values into schools and classrooms under its aegis. This article explores the educational research policy which the Scottish
Government has recently published. It argues that its approach to education policy research will weaken the professional standing and autonomy of teachers. That policy agenda will result in the proletarianisation of classroom educators. A dimension of this government's policy shifts research
out of education into the hands of quasi-private companies. The outsourcing of research contracts to companies illustrates ideological values. Besides the government's general policy orientation to education research, its subcontracting model reinforces the assumption that valid and reliable
research on education does not require the nuanced expertise of classroom practitioners. The government's politics also disfavour university education researchers. The outcome of marginalising these two elements of the education world ensures evidence-informed policymaking incorporates neoliberal
values. Research companies operate in the capitalist free market and, to survive, must satisfy their customers. Management of schooling by means of abstract scientific data that monitors and judges teacher performance is an international norm. That destructive, ideologically driven trend undermines
the local expertise of schools and reduces the autonomy of schoolteachers who are employed in schools. The policy culture so described, it is concluded, will re-model the profession, recast what counts as professionalism and in this process trash the accumulated wisdom of generations of committed
and caring teachers.
School Choice in Scotland and England: Divergent Paths and Different Destinations
Authors: Bhattacharya Aveek
Published: March 2023

Increasing school choice has been an active objective of policy in England but not in Scotland. Whereas in England all families are expected to list a rank ordering of schools, in Scotland the vast majority of children attend their catchment school by default. This article reviews the
differences in approach, family experience and outcomes between the two countries. It argues that choice in England has delivered at best modest educational gains, exacerbated school segregation and generated unnecessary stress and anxiety for the families that undergo the process.

This article explores how film, as a pedagogic device, can be used as a stimulus for dialogic engagement around social justice issues such as human rights, conflict and equity. Based on findings from a doctoral research study – and illustrated with an example from the film,
The Box 1 – it is argued that through dialogue, film can provide an inclusive and participatory site for learning where children are viewed as social agents, meaning-makers and co-constructors of knowledge.
'Not Running, Sir, We're Horses': Reflections on Play and Playfulness
Authors: Kazamias David
Published: March 2023

Play and playfulness have been central to progressive pedagogies since the birth of the kindergarten. Yet their position in many contemporary education discourses is often ambivalent and at times fragile. In the Global North, many critics warn of a 'play crisis' and 'play deficit'.
This essay attempts to trace a cultural and intellectual history of play and playfulness throughout the Global North in order to question why their position today seems so precarious.
Schools and Mental Health: A Progressive or Adaptive Model?
Authors: Quicke John
Published: March 2023

In this article I discuss two different approaches to mental health in schools. What I have described as an adaptive model focuses on a 'wellbeing' policy involving training teachers to spot the 'early signs' of mental health problems and to take action themselves or make an appropriate
referral. The alternative is the 'whole-school approach' which is potentially more progressive but is also not without problems. The kind of curricular change typically advocated in this area with its emphasis on social and emotional learning is critically examined. Some reforms are suggested
which require teachers to provide guidance for individual students based on self narratives similar to the kind of 'best practice' advocated in careers guidance. What counts as a 'good story' about the self is discussed with reference to the kind of education required for personal autonomy
and self-stability in a highly differentiated and rapidly changing society.
Stability analysis of a multiscale model including cell-cycle dynamics and populations of quiescent and proliferating cells
Authors: Batool Iqra , Bajcinca Naim
Published: March 2023

This paper presents a mathematical analysis on our proposed physiologically structured PDE model that incorporates multiscale and nonlinear features. The model accounts for both mutated and healthy populations of quiescent and proliferating cells at the macroscale, as well as the microscale dynamics of cell cycle proteins. A reversible transition between quiescent and proliferating cell populations is assumed. The growth factors generated from the total cell population of proliferating and quiescent cells influence cell cycle dynamics. As feedback from the microscale, Cyclin D/CDK 4-6 protein concentration determines the transition rates between quiescent and proliferating cell populations. Using semigroup and spectral theory, we investigate the well-posedness of the model, derive steady-state solutions, and find sufficient conditions of stability for derived solutions. In the end, we executed numerical simulations to observe the impact of the parameters on the model's nonlinear dynamics.
La boxe à travers la presse (Espagne, Mexique, XIXe siècle) : l’homo americanus en « guantes como fórmula de civilización»
Authors: Sablonnière  Catherine
Published: March 2023

La boxe, sport populaire en Angleterre puis aux États-Unis au XIXe siècle, est vue dans la presse espagnole et mexicaine de la fin du siècle comme l’expression de la civilisation matérielle anglo-saxonne qui se teinte de la violence qu’incarne le combat, dans le contexte de l'antagonisme entre Espagne, Mexique et États-Unis pour le contrôle des territoires du continent américain. La force des poings semble être le caractère distinctif de la manière de faire de la politique en Angleterre et aux États-Unis. Dénigrée pour la déshumanisation des combattants qu’elle implique, les désordres sociaux et moraux qu’elle alimente, la boxe conquiert peu à peu une certaine autonomie grâce aux récits de combats qui suscitent une nouvelle créativité langagière. La description du corps musclé du boxeur américain statufie un nouveau type d’« homo americanus » dans lequel se reconnaissent les nord-américains et suscite fascination et rejet, de manière assez homogène, dans les articles des chroniqueurs mexicains et espagnols, conscients de l’enjeu culturel et politique que représente l’acceptation de la boxe comme sport civilisé.
Un exemple de soft power français en Amérique du Sud : le cas du département d’histoire de l’Université de São Paulo.
Authors: Kinsella Coutinho Arianna
Published: March 2023

L'objet de cet article est de présenter la diplomatie culturelle française au Brésil au début du XXème siècle comme un exemple réussi de soft power. Grâce à la présence des universitaires français pendant les premières années d’existence de l’Université de São Paulo (USP), la France a laissé une empreinte indélébile dans le savoir-faire universitaire notamment en matière de discipline historique et a façonné les goûts des élites intellectuelles locales. Au moyen des liens entretenus depuis cette époque fondatrice entre universitaires français et ceux de l’USP, la France a pu ancrer l’universalisme républicain dans l’esprit des futurs historiens brésiliens. L’histoire brésilienne est devenue une discipline clé dont le savoir-faire est déterminant pour la construction de l’identité nationale.
Approche comparative de l’occupation des sites de hauteur en Auvergne (Bronze final III/premier âge du Fer et Antiquité tardive/haut Moyen Âge) : chronologie, formes, dynamiques spatiales et paysagères à l’échelle d’un territoire
Authors: Delrieu Fabien , Dendievel André-Marie , Martinez Damien
Published: March 2023

Cet article propose de confronter les résultats de recherches archéologiques et paléoenvironnementales en cours sur l’occupation des sites de hauteur en Auvergne à deux moments-clés : d’une part, au cours de la Protohistoire ancienne (âge du Bronze final III et premier âge du Fer) et, d’autre part, de l’Antiquité tardive et du haut Moyen Âge. Ces deux périodes paraissent chacune marquées par un investissement significatif des zones de moyenne montagne. Ce premier bilan a été l’occasion de développer un dialogue étroit et pérenne entre spécialistes. Les objectifs de ce travail pluridisciplinaire sont de mettre en lumière les points communs et les divergences perceptibles dans les modalités d’investissement des points hauts durant ces deux séquences chronologiques ainsi que d’appréhender les dynamiques spatiales et paysagères à l’échelle d’un territoire.

Les Missions Locales ont pour vocation de faciliter l’orientation et l’insertion socio-professionnelle des jeunes de 16 à 25 ans. Les conseillers·ères qui les suivent, sont aidé·es dans leurs missions par divers outils numériques dont l’application-web DiagOriente qui vise à valoriser les compétences transverses à partir des expériences professionnelles et centres d’intérêts. L’objet de cet article est d’identifier, à partir de cinq entretiens semi-directifs et d’une méthode mise au point précédemment (Reyssier, 2020 ; Touraille & Simonian, 2022), si cette application est « affordante » (Gibson, 1979 ; Simonian, 2022), c’est à dire si elle est perçue immédiatement comme permettant de faciliter l’accompagnement à l’orientation des jeunes. Les résultats montrent que l’orientation est facilitée par cet outil numérique, qui prend en charge une partie de la tâche de guidage de la réflexion des jeunes. Ce gain de temps et de disponibilité offrirait de nouvelles affordances : une individualisation du soutien et/ou la création de nouveaux ateliers collectifs.

Published: March 2023

This study aimed to investigate the structural concerns, knowledge, and beliefs about COVID-19 vaccination in the Ghanaian context. As a result, understanding the changing dynamics of knowledge, concerns, and beliefs about COVID-19 vaccination and health is critical for disease control and prevention. This study used a quantitative method with convenience sampling to ask respondents about COVID-19 vaccine acceptance through an online questionnaire shared with indigenous residents in and outside Ghana with 346 respondents. This study employed various data analysis techniques, including structural equation modelling, multi-group data analysis, and interaction effects. The degree of belief and concern regarding vaccination knowledge was statistically different. It is assumed that males tend to believe more about vaccination and have higher knowledge than females. The study adds an original view of differences in the perception of people in Ghana on how they perceived the belief and concern for vaccination knowledge based on demographic factors of gender, employment, and unemployment.

Life expectancy is accepted as an important indicator of public health and well-being of economies. Therefore, life expectancy can be accepted as a result of all economic, social, education, and health policies. This study investigates the mutual interaction between quality education and life expectancy in the BRICS countries for the 2000-2021 period through causality test considering the related empirical literature. The findings of the causality analysis reveal a bidirectional causal relationship between quality education and life expectancy in BRICS countries.
The Relationship of Health Expenditures per Capita and Inflation in Turkey
Authors: Duğru Meltem
Published: March 2023

Health expenditures and the components of it have been a matter of curiosity in the process from past to present. For this reason, health expenditures, which are affected by more than one factor, have remained the subject of research in all aspects. In this study, health expenditures were taken into account as per capita, and it was tried to be explained with economic factors that were less studied in the literature. Thus, the relationship between the consumer price index (CPI) and the producer price index (PPI) and per capita health expenditures were tried to be determined in order to contribute to the current data. In this study covering the period between 2000 and 2020, the relationship between health expenditures and CPI and PPI was tried to be determined by using the vector autoregression (VAR) model, VAR-Granger, impulse-response analysis, and variance decomposition method. According to the results obtained, the source of health expenditures per capita is more PPI than CPI. At the same time, the most important variable explaining the changes in the CPI is health expenditures.
A Holistic View of Remote Health Care
Authors: Türkmen İbrahim , Sardoğan Barış
Published: March 2023

Although developments in the field of information and communication technologies affect all sectors, health is one of the most affected sectors. It is transforming from the traditional model, where patients physically go to the hospital and meet face-to-face with the physician, to modern medicine, where remote health care is provided. However, patients, healthcare professionals, hospitals, and regulatory organizations have hesitations about the use of digital health technologies, and it is observed that trust in remote healthcare is low. In this chapter, the authors emphasize that it is necessary to focus on the elements that make up the digital health ecosystem to understand better the hesitations and trust problems regarding digital health applications and to obtain the expected benefits.
Formalization of Ethical Decision Making
Authors: Almpani Sofia , Stefaneas Petros , Frangos Panayiotis
Published: March 2023

As automation in robotics and artificial intelligence is increasing, we will need to automate a growing amount of ethical decision making. However, ethical decision-making raises novel challenges for designers, engineers, ethicists, and policymakers, who will have to explore new ways to realize this task. For example, engineers building wearable robots should take into consideration privacy aspects and their different context-based scenarios when programming the decision-making procedures. This in turn requires ethical input in order to respect norms concerning privacy and informed consent. The presented work focuses on the development and formalization of models that aim at ensuring a correct ethical behavior of artificial intelligent agents, in a provable way, extending and implementing a logic-based proving calculus. This leads to a formal theoretical framework of moral competence that could be implemented in artificial intelligent systems in order to best formalize certain parameters of ethical decision-making to ensure safety and justified trust.
Influencing Factors of Team Effectiveness in Global Virtual Teams
Authors: Ünal Buket Celik
Published: March 2023

Virtual teams are gaining importance because they have given organisations and employees the ability to work from anywhere in the world without relocating them. The ability to work remotely and collaborate virtually has allowed organisations to expand their reach and tap into a global talent pool. Additionally, COVID-19 has resulted in seeking alternative work arrangements, including the information technology (IT) industry. However, virtual teams also have challenges that can affect team efficiency and effectiveness. Factors such as knowledge sharing, trust, language and cultural differences, distance, and time zone differences can all impact virtual team performance. This research describes several important factors that affect global virtual team efficiency, especially in IT projects, and underlying solutions are addressed to reduce the barriers. By understanding the challenges and implementing effective solutions, organisations can leverage the benefits of virtual teams.
Design and Implementation of an Intelligent Moving Target Robot System for Shooting Training
Authors: Zhao Junming , Wang Qiang
Published: March 2023

The paper proposed intelligent moving sensory robot localization (IMSRL) method for shooting training in military applications. It's a conceptual design of a human-like intelligent target robot. It offers concept strategies based on standard military shooting training and combat utilization scenarios in light of the current trend toward intellectual and remotely operated training equipment and the practical implementations of mobile target robots elsewhere. With photogrammetry and pattern matching through model information and forefront goal isolation, characteristic point recovery, and movement prediction to Kalman filtering, IMSRL relies on a method for monitoring feature points of moving targets. Performance values and the ability to recognize and follow moving targets increase significantly in simulated experiments using the suggested strategy. Parameters such as confidence level may enhance motion target recognition, tracking reliability, and precision. In contrast, inter-frame centroid distance can be used to evaluate the efficiency and consistency of these processes.

International projects are often realized through the bidding process, but the existence of information exchange barriers in different countries leads to a complex and tedious bidding process. In this paper, the authors study the complex problem of reading bidding documents, combine the artificial intelligence to analyze them in a structured way, and realize the intelligent analysis of bidding documents. Firstly, through the CRF model, the structured analysis of the tender document is carried out according to the title of the tender document, and the extraction of quoted price, technology and commercial part is realized. Secondly, the detailed analysis of quoted price and technology is completed using the Bi-LSTM method, and the main five key feature extraction and analysis are completed. Finally, based on the CRF-Bi-LSTM method, the actual test is carried out, and the correlation coefficient is as high as 0.965. The results show that the structured parsing model proposed has good application prospects.
Intelligent Furniture Design for Elderly Care at Home in the Context of the Internet of Things
Authors: Luo Deyu
Published: March 2023

As the number of elderly people in our population continues to grow, so has the attention directed toward their care. Furniture is a pertinent component of this, as its design can significantly impact their day-to-day lives in terms of safety, comfort, and convenience. Researchers, therefore, have analyzed the functionality and operability of these pieces and proposed design strategies that incorporate intelligent technology thereby improving the usability for the elderly. One promising branch of this research is the internet of things (IoT) and its application to smart homes that can greatly improve life for those in their later years. The value of furniture intelligence is evident, particularly with the ever-increasing demands from consumers for comfort and convenience. In recent years, with the continuous enhancement of consumer lifestyle, purchasers have been craving for comfort and intelligence from furniture products. As smart home systems often come with high costs, consuming large amounts of energy, and having low integration levels, this paper proposes a scheme to tackle these issues. It expresses the foundational idea that furniture for the elderly should be made secure, convenient, intelligent, and cost-effective based on the use of the internet of things technology. This technique has increased usability, safety, and economy by 3.54%, 3.81%, and 4.38%, respectively, thus acting as a valuable reference for “aging furniture” designs in theory and practice.
How Does Green Credit Policy Affect Sustainable Development Capacity of Enterprises in China?
Authors: Han Liangliang , Liu Shangshu
Published: March 2023

The green credit policy has been one of the most important policies for solving resource and environmental problems and promoting sustainable economic and social development in China in recent years. Based on the mediating effect of green innovation input and the moderating effect of government subsidies, in this study the authors investigate the influence of the green credit policy on the sustainable development capacity of enterprises. The research shows that the green credit policy does not improve the sustainable development capacity of enterprises. The green credit policy promotes enterprises' green innovation input, and green innovation input plays an intermediary role between green credit policy and sustainable development capacity of enterprises. Government subsidies play a regulating role in the green credit policy, green innovation input, and sustainable development capacity of enterprises. Based on these findings, the authors suggest that the government, banks, and enterprises make joint efforts to improve the sustainable development capacity of enterprises as soon as possible.
