Authors: Zamani Amir , Ghaffari Mohtasham , Mohseny Maryam , Rakhshanderou Sakineh
Published: July 2023

Background: Many medical students experience heavy occupational stress during their long education period. Occupational stress can be affected by several factors, including spiritual intelligence. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the level of occupational stress in medical interns during the COVID-19 pandemic and the effect of spiritual intelligence. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 209 medical interns at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (Tehran, Iran) in the autumn of 2020. Eligible medical students answered two online questionnaires: The Opisow occupational stress questionnaire and the King Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire. Data were analyzed in SPSS 16 and EQS6.1 using structural equation modeling. Results: The mean occupational stress score and the mean spiritual intelligence score of the participants were 184.57 ± 23.57 and 50.44 ± 13.97, respectively. All the model fitness indices were in the acceptable range (CMIN/df = 2.3, RMSEA = 0.07, GFI = 0.91, and CFI = 0.93); thus, the proposed model was confirmed. Spiritual intelligence was a factor affecting occupational stress (β = -0.45). Besides, all of the subscales of spiritual intelligence negatively affected occupational stress with the following effect sizes: Transcendent awareness (β = -0.53), critical existential thinking (β = -0.43), production of personal meaning (β = -0.41), and consciousness state expansion (β = -0.27). Conclusions: According to the model fitness indices, it can be concluded that the proposed model was acceptable. All subscales of spiritual intelligence had a negative impact on occupational stress.
On the design of power- and energy-efficient functional units for vector processors
Authors:   , Ratkovic Ivan
Published: July 2023

Vector processors are a very promising solution for mobile devices and servers due to their inherently energy-efficient way of exploiting datalevel parallelism. While vector processors succeeded in the high performance market in the past, they need a re-tailoring for the mobile market that they are entering now. Functional units are a key components of computation intensive designs like vector architectures, and have significant impact on overall performance and power. Therefore, there is a need for novel, vector-specific, design space exploration and low power techniques of vector functional units.

We present a design space exploration of vector adder (VA) and multiplier unit (VMU). We examine advantages and side effects of using multiple vector lanes and show how it performs across a broad frequency spectrum to achieve an energy-efficient speed-up. As the final results of our exploration, we derive Pareto optimal design points and present guidelines on the selection of the most appropriate VMU and VA for different types of vector processors according to different sets of metrics of interest.

To reduce the power of vector floating-point fused multiply-add units (VFU), we comprehensively identify, propose, and evaluate the most suitable clock-gating techniques for it. These techniques ensure power savings without jeopardizing the performance. We focus on unexplored opportunities for clock-gating application to vector processors, especially in active operating mode. Using vector masking and vector multilane-aware clock-gating, we report power reductions of up to 52%, assuming active VFU operating at the peak performance. Among other findings, we observe that vector instruction-based clock-gating techniques achieve power savings for all vector floating-point instructions. Finally, when evaluating all techniques together, the power reductions are up to 80%.

We propose a methodology that enables performing this research in a fully parameterizable and automated fashion using two kinds of benchmarks, synthetic and "real world" application based. For this interrelated circuit-architecture research, we present novel frameworks with both architectural- and circuit-level tools, simulators and generators (including ones that we developed). Our frameworks include both design(e.g. adder's family type) and vector architecture-related parameters (e.g. vector length).

Additionally, to find the optimal estimation flow, we perform a comparative analysis, using a design space exploration as a case study, of the currently most used estimation flows: Physical layout Aware Synthesis (PAS) and Place and Route (PnR). We study and compare post-PAS and post-PnR estimations of the metrics of interest and the impact of various design parameters and input switching activity factor (aI).
Architecture support for intrusion detection systems
Authors:   , Sreekar Shenoy Govind
Published: July 2023

System security is a prerequisite for efficient day-to-day transactions. As a consequence, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are commonly used to provide an effective security ring to systems in a network. An IDS operates by inspecting packets flowing in the network for malicious content. To do so, an IDS like Snort[49] compares bytes in a packet with a database of prior reported attacks. This functionality can also be viewed as string matching of the packet bytes with the attack string database.
Snort commonly uses the Aho-Corasick algorithm[2] to detect attacks in a packet. The Aho-Corasick algorithm works by first constructing a Finite State Machine (FSM) using the attack string database. Later the FSM is traversed with the packet bytes. The main advantage of this algorithm is that it provides a linear time search irrespective of the number of strings in the database. The issue however lies in devising a practical implementation. The FSM thus constructed gets very bloated in terms of the storage size, and so is area inefficient. This also affects its performance efficiency as the memory footprint also grows. Another issue is the limited scope for exploiting any parallelism
due to the inherent sequential nature in a FSM traversal.
This thesis explores hardware and software techniques to accelerate attack detection using the Aho-Corasick algorithm. In the first part of this thesis, we investigate techniques to improve the area and performance efficiency of an IDS. Notable among our contributions, includes a pipelined architecture that accelerates accesses to the most frequently accessed node in the FSM. The second part of this thesis studies the resilience of an IDS to evasion attempts. In an evasion attempt an adversary saturates the performance of an IDS to disable it, and thereby gain access to the network. We explore an evasion attempt that significantly degrades the performance of the Aho-Corasick al-
gorithm used in an IDS. As a counter measure, we propose a parallel architecture that improves the resilience of an IDS to an evasion attempt. The final part of this thesis explores techniques to exploit the network traffic characteristic. In our study, we observe significant redundancy in the payload bytes. So we propose a mechanism to leverage this redundancy in the FSM traversal of the Aho-Corasick algorithm. We have also implemented our proposed redundancy-aware FSM traversal in Snort.
Resource management techniques aware of interference among high-performance computing applications
Authors:   , Jokanović Ana
Published: July 2023

Network interference of nearby jobs has been recently identified as the dominant reason for the high performance variability of parallel applications running on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems. Typically, HPC systems are dynamic with multiple jobs coming and leaving in an unpredictable fashion, sharing simultaneously the system interconnection network. In such environment contention for network resources is causing random stalls in the progress of application execution degrading application's performance.
Eliminating interactions between jobs is the key for guaranteeing both high performance and performance predictability of applications. These interactions are determined by the job location in the system. Upon arriving to the system, the job is allocated the computing and network resources by resource managers. Based on the job size requirements, the job scheduler finds a set of available computing nodes. In addition, the subnet manager determines the allocation of the network resources such as paths between nodes, virtual lanes, link bandwidth. Typically, resource managers are mainly focused on increasing utilization of the resources while neglecting job interactions.
In this thesis, we propose techniques for both, job scheduler and subnet manager, able to mitigate job interactions: 1) a job scheduling policy that reduces the node fragmentation in the system, and 2) a quality-of-service (QoS) policy based on a characterization of job's network load; this policy is relaying on the virtual lanes mechanism provided by modern interconnection network (e.g. InfiniBand).
In order to evaluate our job scheduling policy we use a simulator developed for this thesis that takes as an input the job scheduler log from a production HPC system. This simulator performs the node allocation for the jobs from the log. The proposed QoS policy is evaluated using a flit-level network simulator that is able to replay multiple traces from real executions of MPI applications. Experimental results show that the proposed job scheduling policy leads to few jobs sharing network resources and thus having fewer job's interactions while the QoS policy is able to
effectively reduce the degradation from the remaining job's interactions. These two software techniques are complementary and could be used together without additional hardware.

Authors: Mariyatul Hakim Noviani
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this research is to determine the role of indigenous organizations and Dutch government policies as the implementing authority in addressing diseases that affected the community from 1900 to 1939 in Surabaya. This research study employs a historical method consisting of Heuristics (source collection), Source Criticism, Interpretation, and finally Historiography (presentation of data in written form). Based on the research findings and data sources obtained, it is revealed that the policies issued by the colonial government were the result of the involvement of intellectual figures and private organizations who actively conveyed criticisms. The research findings discovered that throughout its course, the colonial government collaborated with educated indigenous figures to promote a healthy lifestyle. In addition to establishing hospitals and health centers, the improvement of public health focused on preventive measures, such as promoting clean living habits among the community. The final results of this research indicate that the government's success in curbing the spread of diseases was not solely achieved through its own efforts, but through collaboration between the government, private parties, and the community.
Expression of The Human Imagination and Creative Ability in Visual Form
Authors: Shabir Sana
Published: July 2023

Art is a visible manifestation of human creativity and imagination. A song, a sculpture, or a painting, for example, are all the products of human expressions, as are all other forms of art. They are typically admired for their beauty or emotional impact, much like in art. The human eye will appreciate the skill and beauty of an artist when they are able to depict reality in paintings in such a realistic manner. Therefore, it indicates that an artist is experimenting with realism when we talk about portraying subject matter so truly and without any artificiality. In the visual arts, realism refers to the precise representation of live forms, perspective, and the nuances of light and color. Viewing the work of a realistic artist using a conventional media and style is extremely uncommon in Pakistani contemporary art. Viewing works that explore only methods, drawing, composition, and accurately duplicating reality is even more uncommon. This chance came about as a result of Ali Azmat's recent solo exhibition at the Canvas Gallery in Karachi. Despite his past vivid and stunning work, a series of large-scale, realistic black and white portraits of women stood out.

Islamic universities have the belief and view that start-up activities create demand that will boost the economy. However, entrepreneurial activities have not developed in universities. This paper attempts to analyze the findings of a survey-based study of students receiving entrepreneurship education at IAIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi in West Sumatra. The main objective of this research is to compare management attitudes and students' attitudes towards entrepreneurship within the framework of cultural studies. Methodology/approach: using ratio measurement in quantitative research. For example, the sample will be asked to decide whether- those who are self-employed are seen as 1=failures, 2=not failures but also failures, 3=very successful. To ensure maximum reliability and validity, the questionnaire was administered in person. The Thurstone scale method with intervals used to evaluate quantitative research is the same. The results of the study show that the main difficulties in setting up and starting a business at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi are cultural and activity perceptions. Prospective Entrepreneurs/entrepreneurs who graduate from UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi must build sustainable networks and relationships during and after creating a new business. Entrepreneurship education will be an important subject for Islamic tertiary institutions, so it is important to establish culturally adapted programs.

Published: July 2023

Emergencies happen suddenly and cannot be predicted when they will happen. Life-threatening emergency problems can be carried out first aid measures through primary survey. Nurses are at the forefront of providing first aid and need to equip themselves with knowledge about primary surveys that affect the success of efforts to help patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the level of nurse knowledge and the implementation of the primary survey. This research method is Literature Review. Searching database research journals using certain keywords in the period 2011-2019. In the search, 10 journals were obtained that met the inclusion criteria and then reviewed. Several main results from the literature review were obtained, one of which was the results of research (Massa, 2018) showing a positive correlation value obtained a significance value of 0.000 or p <0.05 with a correlation coefficient value of 0.743. This shows that there is a relationship between nurse knowledge and the implementation of primary surveys in emergency patients. Thus it can be concluded that to support a person's actions, knowledge or cognitive is needed for the smooth running of primary survey actions in emergency patients. The solution that can be obtained is to plan a programme to increase the knowledge and skills of nurses by holding a training, so that the application of primary survey actions can be done quickly, precisely and carefully.

Authors: Wang Nannan , Cui Dengfeng
Published: July 2023

As the underlying institutional design for enterprise risk management, it is important to study whether and how internal control affects enterprise technological innovation in the current context of increased economic policy uncertainty. Based on the principal-agent theory and information asymmetry theory, this paper explores the impact of internal control on corporate technological innovation using the listed company data from 2009-2019 CSMAR database, and obtains the following research conclusions: (1) the quality of internal control positively affects the corporate technological innovation. (2) The operational risk plays an intermediary role in the relationship between the internal control affecting the corporate technological innovation. (3) The degree of market competition positively moderates the impact of internal control on enterprise technological innovation. (4) Relative to non-state-owned enterprises and non-high-tech enterprises, the quality of internal control of state-owned enterprises and high-tech enterprises has a more significant impact on enterprise technological innovation. This paper enriches the consequences of the study of internal control on the one hand, and on the other hand, it provides a new perspective for improving technological innovation, and it provides certain guidance for further improving the level of corporate governance.

Abstract. Tapilatu ME, Wijayanti DP, Subagiyo, Sembiring A, Yusmalinda NLA, NIngsih EY, Malik MDA, Pertiwi NPD. 2023. Genetic diversity of wedgefishes and guitarfishes at landing sites in east Indonesia using Cytochrome Subunit I (COI). Biodiversitas 24: 3120-3127. Wedgefish and guitarfish are considered endangered and protected by law in Indonesia due to pressure from overexploitation. They are highly exploited because of their economic value. This condition impacts the decline in the number of populations to the value of genetic diversity. This study used mitochondrial DNA to assess the genetic diversity of wedgefishes and guitarfishes which landed in the eastern part of Indonesia. We found Rhynchobatus australiae (Whitley, 1939) to be the most common species (14 out of 26 sequenced samples), with Glaucostegus typus (Bennett, 1830) and Rhinobatos jimbaranensis (Last, White, & Fahmi, 2006) appearing infrequently. COI sequences were obtained from the NCBI database and utilized in the study to compare population differentiation. Among the R. australiae populations, the results showed that the genetic diversity (Hd) values from Papua, Bali, and Lombok were 1.00, 0.67, and 0.75, respectively. In Papua, G.typus populations showed genetic diversity values of 0.90. R. jimbaranensis from Bali showed a genetic diversity of 0.50. Papua populations indicated higher genetic diversity than Bali and Lombok populations. Furthermore, the analyses of pairwise FST values and AMOVA indicated moderate genetic divergence across reference populations of R. australiae and G. typus in this study. Based on this value, a cautious conservation strategy in optimizing fisheries management will be required to limit anthropogenic impacts.
Idealism, Pragmatism, and the Birth of Pragmatist Educational Thought in America
Authors: Johnston James Scott
Published: July 2023

This article articulates some of the historic as well as the main philosophic contributions to the transitional period in educational thought in America, 1866-1895. This is a period in which the movement away from idealism towards pragmatism as the basis for educational thought began. Contemporaneous with the development of pragmatism was a development in educational thought that stressed naturalism, functionalism, and the organic nature of mind and behaviour. As idealism laid claim to the dominant philosophy in America in the period 1866-1895, so too did it lay claim to being the dominant philosophic presupposition of educational thought. It was the first American philosophy of education: America’s first philosophy of education was not pragmatist; it was idealist, though this would change, beginning in the mid-1890’s. As pragmatism began to take hold of philosophy at the fin de siècle, so too did it begin to take hold of, and later dominate, the philosophic presuppositions of educational thought.

Narratives of societal vulnerability. An insider’s critical reflection on social policy practice
Authors: Numans Wilma , Boog Juliette , Van Regenmortel Tine , Schalk René
Published: July 2023

Despite social policies’ aim to realize an inclusive society, social exclusion of vulnerable groups happens. We analyse the experiences of vulnerable persons with practices of implementation of social policies. The analysis of data of in-depth interviews brings to the fore critical notes of vulnerable persons’ interactions with social policy practitioners. This insider’s perspective provides insight in how they experience access to social rights. Respondents report feelings of intensified vulnerability, a confrontation with too much bureaucracy, and a range of insufficiencies in practitioners’ approaches. The bureaucratic contexts often fail to meet persons needs due to protocols and budget restrictions. In order to implement a more individualized approach practitioners need discretionary space in which they can apply moral-ethical considerations, and are responsive to personal requests. Based on the acknowledgment of the insider’s perspective and addressing the shortcomings of the social policy practice, practitioners can pave the way for more social justice.

Economic dynamics in Nigeria and the introduction of the neoliberal state and economic policies which led to the breakdown of the family structure undermine the implementation of child welfare policies in Nigeria. This study argues that the introduction of the neoliberal state, that is a minimalist state and its economic policies such as privatization, removal of state subsidies and deregulation undermine the implementation of existing child welfare policies in Nigeria. These policies are market and profit driven perspective which has a significant impact on the prospects of sustainable development and welfare of children. The aim of the study is therefore to explain how the introduction of neoliberal economic policies created a gap in policy implementation in which children are not provided for within the social safety nets in the neoliberal Nigeria. These gaps have increased the rate of exclusion and integration of children in the area of education, health, protection, nutrition and wellbeing among others. This is mainly because the priorities of neoliberal policies are to expand market forces, facilitate open competition, enhance mass production, attract foreign investment, and maximize consumption which in many ways undermines child welfare and development. The article adopts a methodology involving qualitative research based on interviews of 70 participants and analyzed using thematic analysis.

Authors: Genzebu Tsegaye Menberu
Published: July 2023

Weak signals such as heart beats are not easily detectable by the instrumentation device called Electrocardiogram (ECG); rather, it requires amplification. This requires research to design a high-gain operational amplifier (op-amp). Using compensation approach and 0.35µm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, the study was constructed and simulated a high gain two-stage CMOS operational amplifier. At a 2.5V power supply, the intended circuit runs. In addition, mathematical formulas were used to carry out the analytical design. With the aid of the design and simulation program PSPICE design and simulation software, the circuit was simulated and examined. The result shows that the designed two-stage CMOS op-amp was an excellent open loop gain of 131.223dB, a slew rate of ±10V/µs, a Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) of 132.210dB (decibles), and a unity gain frequency of 13.012MHz.The obtained result depicted a high-gain two-stage CMOS op-amp was designed.This gain is obtained by using a high-bias current. So, this circuit could be used to amplify weak signals in the instrumentation device due to its excellent gain. In addition, the circuit has a high slew rate, so this circuit is applicable to amplify weak signals quickly.

Published: July 2023

The use of predictive models for the evolution of the pandemic is of great help in decision-making by the authorities. The fundamental objective of this work was to obtain through the Regressive Objective Regression, predictions of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the Marta Abreu Teaching Polyclinic of the city of Santa Clara. In short-term modeling the model was significant at 19.7% with an error of 0.12. Variables dichotommics, saw tooth and saw tooth inverted and risk returned in 1.3, and 12 cases the trend is negative and not significant. We can conclude that a perfect result was obtained in the long term with the ROR methodology. The short-term ROR model depends on the cases of COVID-19 in the previous case, 3 cases back and 12 cases back without significant trend. The long-term model is perfect and depends on the cases of COVID-19 in 12 cases ago, with a negative trend.

The Department of Political Affairs of the Provisional Council of State was established in January 1917 as the nucleus of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Poland, organized depending on the Central Powers. In 1918 it was transformed into the State Department. It functioned under the auspices of the Regency Council appointed by the occupiers. The deteriorating military situation in Germany and Austria-Hungary led in October 1918 to the appointment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as part of the government of the Regency Council under the chairmanship of Józef Świerzyński.

The History of the Use of Acoustics in Mechanical Engineering
Authors: Zhukov Aleksandr
Published: July 2023

The article reviews the history of acoustics and the history of the use of its methods and achievements in mechanical engineering. Acoustic monitoring methods justly hold a significant place among the methods for studying physical objects and industrial processes. These methods are mainly intended for detecting various defects (ultrasound control), monitoring parameters of industrial processes, and determining physical and mechanical properties of products as well as their geometric characteristics. The distinctive feature of the acoustic methods, which helped their spread, is the possibility for non-destructive testing, i. e. causing no damage to the object under study. Another, no less important merit of these methods is a possibility for testing without disrupting industrial processes.

Background

Nuss procedure is the most common method of surgical treatment to pectus excavatum (PE). A significant percentage of surgeons choose to use thoracoscopic assistance during the Nuss procedure (TNP) to avoid cardiac injury. However, our previous findings confirm the safety of single incision Non-thoracoscopic Nuss Procedure (SINTNP). Hence, Further studies, particularly prospective randomized controlled trials, are necessary to assess the value of SINTNP for PE.

Methods

This study is a prospective, superiority, multicenter, non-masked, randomized controlled trial that investigates the outcome and hospitalization medical expense of SINTNP compared to TNP for PE. A total of 320 eligible patients according to sample size calculation by retrospective data will be randomly assigned to the SINTNP group or the TNP group at a 1:1 ratio using stratified blocked randomization and the zone length was set as four. Patients aged between 3 and 18 years old for the first surgery and without combination of complex anomalies such as Marfan syndrome and congenital heart disease will be considered for the study. The co-primary endpoint is thoracic related complications and medical expense during hospitalization. Thoracic related complications were defined as pneumothorax, pleural effusion, pneumonia and incision infection. The secondary endpoints include surgery duration and length of hospital stay.

The registration number for this study protocol is ChiCTR230073081 (Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, A Primary Registry of International Clinical Trial Registry Platform, World Health Organization).
