Published: November 2023

An overview and application of the English language in the world at the modern stage were conducted. The key importance of the English language for international business and scientific communication was clarified. The prerequisites for the use of the English language in Ukraine and its legislative support at the current stage were considered. The content and scope of the discipline "Professional foreign language" in the training program for specialists in specialty 193 "Geodesy and land surveying" were determined. The cycle "education – science – production" regarding the use of the English language in the specified specialty was analyzed.

At the education stage, the need to achieve the B2 level is substantiated both for the possibility of barrier-free implementation of international academic mobility during studies, and for the possibility of its continuation at the following educational and qualification levels of higher education (master's degree, doctor of philosophy). The scientific stage reveals the terminological problems and the importance of working with professional specialized literature for the formation of publishing activity and other criteria related to the knowledge of a foreign language, necessary for obtaining academic degrees. The production moment examines the English language through the prism of working with technical and technological support necessary for carrying out topographic-geodetic, cartographic and land-cadastral works.

Authors: Butenko Ye. , Ishchenko N. , Mykhailyk K.
Published: November 2023

The article analyzes the prospects for the development of monitoring of land relations, theoretical and legal aspects of its operation and trends in monitoring of relations according to existing data. In current circumstances, it is quite difficult to collect reliable monitoring data, as different areas have large areas and significant spatial and temporal characteristics. All information on land relations is collected and maintained by various departments and local authorities, and other government institutions, public organizations and individuals do not have full access to it. As a result, central authorities are not always able to see a "whole picture" of land relations, both at the district and oblast levels and at the national level, and are not always able to find optimal solutions to improve land relations. There is a need to introduce monitoring of land relations as a constantly updated information system, to ensure the accumulation of information, its analysis and forecasting, and the development of scientifically sound recommendations on this basis for effective management decisions. Proper organization of the use of monitoring information will make it possible to assess the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the state of lands, and to assess and forecast changes. The issue of lack of free access to information on land relations, which creates favorable conditions for land use improperly, evasion of compliance with the requirements of land and environmental legislation of Ukraine, the spread of corruption. Today, all information on land relations is collected and maintained by various departments and local authorities, and other government institutions, public organizations and individuals do not have full access to it. As a result, central authorities do not always have the opportunity to see a "holistic picture" of land relations, both at the district and oblast levels, and at the national level, and do not always have the opportunity to find optimal solutions to improve land relations. The need to create a constantly updated database on the state of development of land relations, with open access for monitoring entities as an integrating information network, as well as for forecasting and control of rational land use, and ensuring transparency in land relations management. The creation of such a base will focus on the effectiveness of management decisions and improve the management of land use in general.

Aim: to evaluate the frequency of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in a high risk hospital, to conduct a comparative assessment of the clinical, historical and laboratory features of patients with PPH, and the effectiveness of the algorithm of PPH management after vaginal birth (VB) and caesarean section (CS). Design: retrospective study. Material and methods. The study included 15,480 patients. The frequency of early PPH and the effectiveness of applying a local stepwise algorithm for management of PPH were evaluated. Clinical historical and laboratory data were obtained by copying from the primary documentation. Results. The incidence of PPH in a high risk hospital is 0.67%. The most significant risk factor for PPH is the induction of labor, but more than a third of women do not have significant risk factors. The volume of blood loss after CS was 1218.29 ± 728.15 ml, after VB — 784.12 ± 304.44 ml (p<0.001). Uterine balloon tamponade was used in 28 (44.4%) women with PPH after VB and in 27 (65.9%) after CS (χ2 = 4.600; p = 0.142). Compression sutures on the uterus were used in 12 (29.3%) patients after CS and in 3 (2.9%) puerperas after VB (χ2 = 2.8; p = 0.001). Hysterectomy was performed in 4 (9.8%) cases only after CS. Conclusion: The existing algorithms for management PPH are highly effective and allow avoiding hysterectomy in VB in 100% of cases, in CS — in 90.2%.

Aim: To analyze modern approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of genital endometriosis. Key points. Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases, affecting mainly women of reproductive age, the main manifestations of which are chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Constant pelvic pain, which reduces the quality of life, leads to the fact that patients are in a state of prolonged stress, and they have behavioral disorders. According to the latest world recommendations, drug treatment is the first line of therapy for endometriosis, if pregnancy is not a priority at this stage. There are many imaging methods for diagnosing this disease, but the search for non-invasive markers of endometriosis that can reliably confirm the diagnosis is still ongoing. Conclusion. An interdisciplinary approach and the choice of adequate treatment for endometriosis at each stage of a woman's life can limit unnecessary surgery and better meet the needs of patients. Keywords: endometriosis, adenomyosis, chronic pelvic pain, progestins, dienogest, endometriosis markers.

Authors: OLORI Abiola Lateef , OLAJIDE Osikoya Oladapo
Published: November 2023

Business Studies is one of the subjects that enable students acquire skills that are essential to personal, occupational and entrepreneurial activities. In Nigeria, there arereports indicating that students are not making consistent progress in learning Business Studies and that this is somehow attributed to teachers’ perception on the usefulnessof instructional materials for effective teaching and learning. However, in pedagogical practice it is believed by the experts of this field that the use of instructional media bythe teachers will make learning more permanent, offer reality of experience and provide high degree of interest. The objective of this study is to investigate the perceptionof teachers on the usefulness of instructional media to effective teaching of Business Studies.Three research hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. A total of 270 Junior Secondary Schools Business Studies Teachers constituted the sample for this studywhile multistage sampling technique was used. The data for the study was collected through the use of adapted and validated instrument called “Media Usefulness in BusinessStudies Questionnaire”. The data collected in this study was analyzed using t-test at 0.05 level of significance.The findings of the study revealed that there is no significant difference in the perception of experienced and less experienced teachers on the usefulness of instructional mediato effective teaching of business studies, there is no significant difference in the perception of male and female teachers on the usefulness of instructional media to effectiveteaching of business studies and there is no significant difference in the perception of teachers based on teaching qualifications on the usefulness of instructional media toeffective teaching of Business Studies. It could therefore be reported that participants in all the groups jointly agreed that instructional materials are useful for effective teachingof Business Studies.Based on the findings, it is recommended that student-friendly instructional technologies should be adequately supplied to the secondary schools. It is also recommendedthat there is need for Ministries of Education, Teacher Training Institutions and Private sector to support in the training of Business Studies teachers on the production andeffective utilization of instructional media.Keywords: Audio-Visuals, Dual Coding, Instructional Technologies, Media, Pedagogy
INVARIANCE OF THE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OF A SPECIAL PURPOSE INFORMATION COMMUNICATION NETWORK UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF INCOMPLETE PRIOR INFORMATION
Authors:   The National Defence University of Ukraine, Kyiv, Zakharzhevsky A. H.
Published: November 2023

The emergence of new, scientifically based advanced approaches to the construction and operation of a special-purpose information communication network, the development of modern secure communication technologies based on them made it possible to create a sufficiently effective and, at the same time, sufficiently extensive structure of the constituent elements of such a network. At the same time, special purpose information communication networks are emerging, individual elements of which can be built on the basis of various advanced technologies. In such conditions, a new scientific problem arises to ensure the invariance of the system of protected ICMSP in conditions of incomplete a priori information. The article presents the functional dependence of the invariance of the special purpose information communication network control system under the condition of incomplete a priori information. A disturbance management algorithm has been developed and proposed, and the reasonable feasibility of its use when introducing intentional disturbances has been substantiated. It is shown that this method can be considered as a way of controlling the system when summing the functions according to the control influence. The conditions for ensuring the invariance of control systems are given and the necessary mathematical expressions are given. Provision of an invariant control system under the influence of incomplete a priori information in the article is reduced to the well-known problem of signal reproduction in the presence of interference. Which is proposed to be solved by the criterion of the minimum of the error function. It is shown that in the case of random external influences, with the help of the introduction of previous distorting functions, it is possible to correct the signal by a value that coincides with the mathematical expectation of the error. Obtaining an invariant system in the "emergency" mode is reduced to the well-known problem of signal reproduction in the presence of disturbances, which is solved according to the minimum error function criterion. It should be noted that in this case, with the help of preliminary distortion, under random influences, it is possible to correct the signal by a value that coincides with the mathematical expectation of the error.

Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Kyiv, Kuzmich M. Yu.
Published: November 2023

At the current stage of information technology development, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming one of the main tools for solving complex applied problems in various fields of activity. Various processes and technologies are used for develop, test, and maintain the infrastructure of the data system. The application of tools for the integration of ML and AI in the management of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is especially relevant today. An overview of the ML concept and processes (Machine Learning and Operation, MLOps) was made, which is a set of techniques for implementation and automatic continuous integration, as well as delivery to the product environment and model learning. The concept of MLOps is considered in terms of Kubeflow tools, which work on the Kubernetes platform. The possibilities of using modern MLOps solutions to improve the development processes of ML information systems have investigated. An AI-based information system with the possibility of continuous learning has designed. The concept of using the MLOps pipeline to solve the applied problem of classifying objects from the video of reconnaissance UAVs was presented. The results of the operation of the model in the Kubeflow arsenal have been checked using such improvement factors as: speed of development, implementation of changes, reduction of time to search for problems, recovery after global interruptions, reduction of the number of errors in the model. A publicly available model was deployed in a Kubeflow cluster using the Seldon Core Serving application manifest for practical analysis. The conducted research showed that Kubeflow consists of a set of various open source components that have a high level of integration with each other through the Kubernetes platform. At the same time, Kubeflow uses the Kubernetes pattern of operators for ML objects extremely efficiently. It has shown that writing model code is a small part of ML tasks, which affects the need for automation. The concept of a full-fledged information solution based on the continuous integration pipeline, which is the foundation of the implementation of the concept of continuous learning, has formed. Representing abstractions in the form of separate platform resources allows you to reduce the entry threshold for the end user.

Published: November 2023

Pasca reformasi, transformasi, tantangan, dan beragam isu sosial dan ekonomi melanda Indonesia. Reformasi politik dan krisis ekonomi yang melanda beberapa negara pada akhir 1990 turut memengaruhi transformasi paradigma administrasi publik dari new public management pada new public service yang lebih partisipatif dan demokratis. Dalam konteks Indonesia, beberapa ahli memandang demokrasi pasca 1998 dengan perspektif beragam. Dalam beberapa aspek, demokrasi dianggap berhasil dari segi pertumbuhan ekonomi dan pengembangan nilai-nilai pluralisme. Di sisi lain, demokrasi dianggap gagal dari segi tajamnya ketimpangan pendapatan dan konflik sosial yang terjadi. Buku yang berdasarkan riset-riset yang dilakukan penulis berperspektif Asia ini menyajikan perspektif heterogen tidak hanya dari akademisi, namun juga dari mereka yang berpengalaman dalam birokrasi dan pegiat lembaga swadaya masyarakat (LSM). Buku ini menawarkan sudut pandang majemuk yang cukup berharga. Sehingga, penyajian buku dapat memberikan pembelajaran mengenai hal-hal yang krusial namun sering luput dalam penyusunan kebijakan publik.

Authors: MARKEVYCH Liudmyla , BEZDUSHNA Yuliia ,   National Scientific Center “Institute of Agrarian Economics”
Published: November 2023

The growth of demand for organic products on the world food markets determines the development of organic production in Ukraine. However, in order to enter international markets, in particular the European one, producers of organic products must comply with a number of requirements regarding their quality and certification. The purpose of the article is to generalize the requirements for organic production in the EU countries and to justify the role of the accountant and accounting policy of the enterprise in the process of adapting the activities of producers of organic products in Ukraine to such requirements. Achieving the planned goal was carried out with the help of analytical, synthetic, tabular, graphic methods, etc. The article summarizes the relevance of the export orientation of domestic production with a statistical selection of the most exported crops of organic plant production. An assessment of the formation of the necessary level of preparation for export trade was carried out, with a list of preparatory actions being highlighted. The main documents regulating the production and export of organic products in the EU countries are indicated. The algorithm of processes during the export of organic products from Ukraine in accordance with the requirements of the European Commission regarding additional official measures to control the import of organic products is summarized. The article proves the important role of the accountant in these processes and proposes a system of registers of accounting and control of the production of organic agricultural products, taking into account the requirements and standards of the EU. The proposed document registration system will contribute to the systematization of information about the quality of organic crop production, and will allow the recording of certification procedures at each stage of production.
EXAMINING THE CONTENT ATTRIBUTES OF “MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY” AND “MANAGEMENT SYSTEM” CONCEPTS
Authors:   Simon Kuznets Kharkiv National University of Economics, XIAOQING Guo
Published: November 2023

This article provides a comprehensive overview of the interpretations of key management concepts, namely “management technology,” “management systems,” and “integrated management system”. It aims to elucidate their core attributes, distinctions, commonalities, and introduces the concept of a “complex enterprise management technology.” Utilizing a content analysis approach, the study reveals that 59% of examined definitions concerning “management technology” encompass references to methods, tools, means, and techniques for defining management technology. Additionally, 41% of scholars emphasize crucial attributes such as purposefulness and structuring, while 36% contend that technologies comprise procedures and operations, and an equal percentage attribute them to the execution of management functions. The predominance of a process-oriented perspective in defining “management systems” is also observed, which correlates with the foundational elements of the “management technology” concept. Furthermore, the research highlights that both concepts prominently feature an orientation towards achieving the objectives of economic entities. This underscores the shared characteristics between “management technology” and its contemporary English equivalent, “management system.” The article introduces the concept of a comprehensive enterprise management technology, conceptualized as a system comprising individual management technologies. These technologies consist of coordinated and sequenced processes, procedures, and operations that, through the judicious utilization of human, informational, material, infrastructural, and financial resources, enhance the efficiency of management functions and contribute to the attainment of sustainable development goals. Notably, the proposed definition diverges from existing ones by emphasizing the alignment of economic, social, and environmental objectives within the management process. This definition forms the basis for developing procedures to integrate individual management technologies into a unified comprehensive system, facilitating the coordination of resources and objectives throughout its operation.

The purpose of this study is centered on the removal of atrazine, one of the popular organochlorines in Vietnam, from an aqueous solution, using an electro Fenton process with iron and carbon plated steel electrodes at a batch electro reactor. This study had applied the Taguchi method, one of the most uncomplicated cases of design of experiments involving the minimum number of experiments to be performed within the permissible limit of factors and levels through the Signal to Noise ratio. This study design was conducted with five independent factors: initial pH, current density, Fe2+ concentration, sodium sulfate and reaction time, at a fixed atrazine concentration of 10 mg/L to find the best condition to eliminate atrazine from the solution. The Signal to Noise ratio results illustrates that the initial pH is the most important factor, followed by the reaction time and Fe2+ concentration, while sodium sulfate and current density seem neglectable to the removal of atrazine using electro Fenton process. The optimal Taguchi condition shows that the electro Fenton process reached the best efficiency, approximately 76% atrazine eliminated after 180 min of reaction time at initial pH 3.5, sodium sulfate of 990 mg/L, Fe2+ concentration of 2 mM and current density of 2.22 mA/cm2. Three confirm experiments at optimal test conditions also indicated good agreement with predicted results with small error variation (1.21 - 3.54%). Thus, the relationship between the removal efficiency and operating parameters could be understood. These obtained results highlight the potential of using the electro Fenton process to eradicate or reduce pesticide contaminants. Electron beam also could be one of the pre-treatment techniques to eliminate persistent organic pollutants before biological treatment systems.

Increasing demand of agricultural production will occur in the next decades but the available nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (NPK) are major limiting factors since they are non-renewable. Sustainable cultivation methods require optimal use of resources while achieving high yields at the same time. Crop production planning must therefore take into account the different regional availability and spatial distribution of these nutrients. It also considers the nutritional needs of plants at each stage of their growth. However, high precision predictions in agricultural planning are not feasible because of uncertainties in data and the complexity of the processes, farmers tend to apply chemical fertilizer based on experience. Decision support systems based on fuzzy methods are therefore a convenient approach to deal with uncertainties in crop planning and resources management. In this paper, maps for the yield potential of pepper are generated in dependence on growth stage specific demands for nutrients. The maps are developed based on the combination of multicriteria analysis and Fuzzy Logic algorithm and GIS method for visualization. GIS soil nutrients data were used as the inputs into the system. The resulting maps constitute a sound basis for regional and site specific production planning of pepper.

Currently, Vietnam has 80% unsanitary landfills, so it is very necessary and urgent to renovate, treat and restore the environment at these landfills after they are closed. However, at present, most of the unsanitary landfills do not have statistics on the amount of solid waste discharged, as well as data on monitoring the environmental status - This is necessary information for managers to come up with feasible options for environmental treatment and restoration at landfills. This paper presents a case study at Suoi Rao unsanitary landfill in Chau Duc district, Ba Ria - Vung Tau province with the following objectives: Determine the amount of solid waste to be buried; Evaluation of composition and characteristics of solid waste at the landfill, the research results show that: there are 6,387 tons of solid waste buried at Suoi Rao landfill, 12 times lower than the forecast of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (76,295 tons); Most of the waste has been decomposed with easily biodegradable organic components accounting for 1.85% and non-biodegradable components accounting for 27.28%, the rest after classification (soil, sand, humus) accounts for 69%; The content of heavy metals in the soil of solid wastes buried at Suoi Rao landfill are all within the permissible standards, therefore, the impact of heavy metal content in the soil of Suoi Rao landfill to the surrounding environment is low. The research results have important implications for management levels in Chau Duc district to come up with feasible plans in line with reality to treat, renovate and restore the environment of Suoi Rao landfill in the future.

The Mekong River is the largest river surrounding the East Sea and transports much terrigenous sediments to the southwestern East Sea. However, this region still has contained different standpoints on the sediment contribution from the Mekong River. In this study, clay mineralogy and elemental geochemistry of cores MD01-2393, MD97-2150, SO18383-3, 86GC, and KC09 from previous studies are employed to review sediment provenances in the southwestern East Sea and the role of the Mekong River in contributing terrigenous sediments in this region. According to clay mineralogy and elemental geochemistry, provenance analyses indicate that the Mekong River primarily provides terrigenous sediments to the southwestern East Sea, while rivers in Borneo, Malay, Sumatra, and Thailand can supply insignificant amounts of terrigenous sediments to this area. Based on the abundance of fine grain (silt and clay) and foraminifera in sediment cores, terrigenous sediments in the southwestern East Sea cannot be weathering products of parent rocks in the deep-sea basin, implying that these sediments could originate from remote sources. Our study reveals that the Mekong River plays the most crucial role in contributing terrigenous sediments to the southwestern East Sea.

In this study, bottom sludge was collected from intensive shrimp ponds and aquaculture areas in Ben Tre province. The characteristics of the sludge sample taken to have a clay-meat texture, low organic matter, nitrogen, and total phosphorus content. Sludge from intensive shrimp ponds has very high salinity and solicitation (45-78%), useful nitrogen and useful phosphorus are quite rich, and heavy metal content as in shrimp pond sludge is low, below the threshold of contaminated soil. Polluted pollutants are recovered and treated in the direction of reuse as a source of raw materials for the production of organic fertilizers by aerobic decomposition using rice straw as a filler and incubated for 52 days. The results showed that the properties of the shrimp pond bottom sludge, which changed significantly during the composting process and contained nutritional elements, reached the required concentrations for organic fertilizers applied in Agriculture. After an incubation period of 52 days, the pH varied between 6.95 and 7.04. Humidity ranges from 52.1% to 68.3%. The temperature during composting fluctuates sharply: from 21.50C to 43.40C. Salinity decreased from 15.24 ppm to 12.36 ppm. The C/N ratio in the initial sludge sample was 8.64 and after incubation, it decreased to 6.4 (experiment 1 TN1); 7.6 (experiment 2 - TN2). After 52 days of incubation, the compost from shrimp pond bottom sludge had an organic composition of 15.6%, total nitrogen was 2.2%, and total phosphorus was 1.8%.

From the perspective of economic, environmental, and social point of view , Wind project site selection is a difficult problem with many criteria to consider. In this study, a proposed decision support tool was developed by the integration of the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process Method (Fuzzy-AHP) and Fuzzy Geographic Information System (Fuzzy–GIS) methods. Fuzzy-AHP was used to determine the weights of the criteria and the Fuzzy-GIS was used to normalize the data and develop the maps for optimal option determination. The study has proposed two sets of evaluation criteria, including a set of exclusion criteria and a set of criteria for ranking priority of wind power plant locations. The set of evaluation criteria was divided into 3 criteria and 10 sub-criteria. Besides, the research results showing the suitability with the wind power development planning in Bac Lieu province, an outstanding result of the study is: While local decision-makers considered that the rice fields, which account for 83.86% of the total area of the province, were unsuitable for wind power development, we found that the rice fields should be included in the planning consideration area because of the high wind speed as well as the positive effects of wind farms on crop yields and minimizing negative impacts on the natural environment.
