Resumo Objetivo Este estudo teve como objetivo mapear, por meio de uma revisão de escopo de ensaios clínicos randomizados, a utilização da estratégia de implementação do apoio por pares em contextos da Atenção Primária à Saúde (APS), para tanto, relatando seus resultados na saúde e no processo de implementação. Métodos Foi utilizada como guia para a revisão de escopo a metodologia do Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). As bases Scopus, Scielo, Pubmed, Web of Science e literatura cinzenta foram pesquisadas. Artigos publicados nos últimos 7 anos (2017 a 2023), relacionados ao contexto da Atenção Primária à Saúde e que reportam desfechos de saúde e ao menos um desfecho de implementação foram selecionados. Resultados Inicialmente, foram mapeados 259 artigos e, após remoção de duplicatas e aplicação dos critérios, 15 foram selecionados. Os problemas de saúde abordados foram, em sua maioria, relacionados ao vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV) e outras infecções sexualmente transmissíveis e doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Os principais desfechos de implementação apresentados envolveram adoção, aceitabilidade, alcance, fidelidade, viabilidade, sustentabilidade e adequação. Poucos estudos utilizaram-se de modelos teóricos de implementação para condução e reporte dos achados. Conclusão A estratégia de apoio por pares tem sido empregada em alguns cenários da Atenção Primária à Saúde, com mapeamento que abrange áreas como saúde mental, infecções sexualmente transmissíveis e doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Os impactos positivos na saúde incluíram a supressão viral do HIV, a redução significativa da pressão arterial sistólica e a diminuição na quantidade de álcool consumido. Todavia, ainda, faltam estudos para analisar a efetividade em outros cenários da APS, sobretudo, quanto à fidelidade, viabilidade, sustentabilidade, adequação e custo.

Background. Stroke is defined as a sudden onset of a neurological deficit attributed to a focal vascular cause. It is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity all over the world. The present study aimed to estimate the NIHS score and volume of stroke in predicting 30-day mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients. Material and methods. The present study was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted in 100 patients above 18 years old, of either gender, with symptoms of stroke for less than 24 hours, diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke based on history, physical examination, CT scan and/or diffusion weighted MRI scan performed during the first 24 hours. Results. In the present study, the mean age was 57.4±13.36 years. The volume of stroke on 1st day was 40.75±38.51, and on 30th day it was reduced to 31.94±33.20 which was statistically significant. NIHSS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale) score on day 1 was 9.70±5.22, and on day 30 it was 7.77±5.25, with a statistically significant difference (p=0.000). At the end of the 30 days, 10% mortality was observed. NIHSS score and volume of stroke were significantly associated with the 30-day outcome. Conclusion. In conclusion, integrating NIHSS scoring and stroke volume assessment into routine clinical practice enhances predictive accuracy for 30-day mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients. These findings advocate for early intervention strategies aimed at reducing stroke volume and improving neurological outcomes. Further research is recommended to validate these findings across diverse populations and settings, potentially refining acute stroke management protocol.

Background and objectives. Socket healing following tooth extraction is considered a big challenge among dentists. However, there is no previous research testing the effects of novel commercial ora-aid dressing on the levels of salivary markers of wounds healing, osteoprotegerin (OPG) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) with relation to the smoking status among patients undergone tooth extraction. Material and methods. The current study represents the first randomized, controlled, and clinical research conducted in Iraq from February to May 2022. Forty male outpatients (aged from 20-60 years) who visited the Surgery Clinic of the College of Dentistry, University of Babylon, Iraq, had tooth extraction. The patients were randomly allocated into four groups: smoker patients with ora-aid applied following extraction (N=11), non-smoker patients with ora-aid applied following extraction (N=9), smoker patients without ora-aid applied (gauze only; N=11), and non-smoker patients without ora-aid applied (gauze only; N=9). Levels of preoperative and postoperative (2 weeks after extraction) salivary HGF and OPG were measured. Results. The results indicated that the levels of postoperative HGF were significantly higher in patients with ora-aid dressing compared to those without. Levels of postoperative OPG were significantly lower compared to their preoperative levels in non-smokers without ora-aid dressing. Smoking had significantly negative impacts on the levels of preoperative HGF. Conclusions. The study concludes that commercial ora-aid attachable dressing can be safely applied on the fresh socket after tooth extraction and it can accelerate the healing of intraoral wounds by significantly elevating healing of salivary markers (HGF|) and maintaining the levels of other healing marker (OPG).

Este artigo aborda a inovadora percepção do espaço artístico como materialidade e o desenvolvimento das linguagens da instalação no século XX, com foco na influência da artista brasileira Lygia Pape. Nas décadas de 1960 e 1970, Pape realizou experimentações que exploraram a dinâmica espacial e convidaram o público a repensar sua relação com o espaço ao redor, ressaltando a capacidade de transformação do ambiente através do deslocamento e da interação. Pape, juntamente com outros artistas como Hélio Oiticica e Lygia Clark, trouxeram uma nova perspectiva para a arte, indo além das obras tradicionais em galerias e espaços fechados e exploraram o espaço na vida cotidiana, na paisagem, no contexto urbano e na arquitetura. Influenciada por suas experiências urbanas, Pape voltou-se para o espaço da galeria, afastando-se da escultura tridimensional convencional, onde sua abordagem conceitual baseia-se em suas vivências na cidade e no coletivo e a interação entre o observador e o espaço envolvente cria uma dinâmica estimulante, na qual o corpo do espectador é incorporado como parte essencial do processo criativo. Utilizando a abordagem fenomenológica, este estudo analisa as relações entre a obra de arte e seu contexto, observando os reflexos e desdobramentos na construção do espaço contemporâneo.

Механические метаматериалы - искусственные материалы, у которых механические свойства преимущественно зависят от их структуры, а не от характеристик материала из которого они изготовлены. Из множества разработанных структур метаматериалов можно выделить класс структур, разработанных на основе искусства оригами – складывания бумаги, позволяющего из плоского листа бумаги получать трёхмерные структуры различной сложности. В работе представлены общие сведения о механических метаматериалах, со структурой, основанной на методе складывания Миура-ори, рассмотрены области их применения, преимущества, и приведён краткий обзор исследований таких метаматериалов.

Mechanical metamaterials are artificial materials whose mechanical properties primarily depend on their structure rather than on the characteristics of the material from which they are made of. From the many developed metamaterial structures, a class of structures developed based on the art of origami can be distinguished. Origami is the art of paper folding, which allows you to create three-dimensional structures of varying complexity made of a flat sheet of paper. The paper presents general information on mechanical metamaterials, with a structure based on the Miura-ori folding method, discusses their areas of application, advantages, and provides a brief overview of research on such metamaterials.

We report observations of the atmospheric transmission spectrum of the sub-Neptune exoplanet GJ 3470 b taken using the Near-Infrared Camera on JWST. Combined with two archival Hubble Space Telescope/Wide-Field Camera 3 transit observations and 15 archival Spitzer transit observations, we detect water, methane, sulfur dioxide, and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of GJ 3470 b, each with a significance of >3σ. GJ 3470 b is the lowest-mass—and coldest—exoplanet known to show a substantial sulfur dioxide feature in its spectrum, at M

p
= 11.2 M
⊕ and T
eq = 600 K. This indicates that disequilibrium photochemistry drives sulfur dioxide production in exoplanet atmospheres over a wider range of masses and temperatures than has been reported or expected. The water, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide abundances we measure indicate an atmospheric metallicity of approximately 100× solar. We see further evidence for disequilibrium chemistry in our inferred methane abundance, which is significantly lower than expected from equilibrium models consistent with our measured water and carbon dioxide abundances.

Microalgae hold great potential for producing purified high-value products (e.g. pigments and polyunsaturated fatty acids) and represent a source of bioavailable nutrients in aquaculture feeds; however, its production is limited by the high costs of harvesting. Recently, microalgae autoflocculation has been considered a useful solution due to the easy recovery of cell aggregates and natural increase in pH that prevents cell lysis. This work evaluates some cultivation conditions that could contribute to autoflocculation, such as natural pH increase and precipitate formation over the productivity and flocculation of 16 microalgae consortia. Results showed a biomass production of 1.4 to 4.4 dry weight (g L-1) and high flocculation of 81 to ~100%, probably due to Ca3(PO4)2 formation. Moreover, the alkaline pH could have facilitated the assimilation of CO2 and explained the increase of inorganic carbon in the solution obtained. Likewise, results showed a marked descent in electrical conductivity (EC) in solution and high mineral content in the biomass (21.4-35.9%). Finally, this study suggests that the studied culture conditions facilitated microalgae harvest, and the resulting biomass could be a source of bioavailable dietary minerals. Therefore, some of these results might be addressed in future studies with individual microalgae species.
Contribution de l’investissement à impact pour le développement humain de l’économie ? Approche énantiologique
Authors: Bonnet Daniel
Published: July 2024

Cet article propose une analyse critique de la notion « d’investissement à impact », envers la transformation des comportements : comment cette transformation peut favoriser ce type d’investissement en entreprise, quels sont les enjeux, défis et limites ? L’investissement à impact qualifie les investissements contribuant au développement de stratégies innovantes, d’essence socio-économique. Ils incorporent des exigences sociales, environnementales et sociétales. Il est stipulé par son intentionnalité, l’additionnalité des attributs, et sa mesurabilité. Notamment, il doit convertir des externalités négatives et produire des externalités positives. Il doit également générer une performance financière additionnelle, car il est aussi une épargne qui finance un investissement vertueux. La recherche est réalisée dans le cadre de la théorie socio-économique des organisations. Elle mobilise des incorporats d’investigation. Sont notamment mobilisés les incorporats définissant une approche énantiologique, à savoir une approche examinant les transformations envers leur impact sur la transformation des comportements.

Does the deployment of the ISO 9001 standard have an effect on intellectual capital?
Authors: Mokhlis Chams-Eddoha , Diop Yamadou , Boualou Widad
Published: July 2024

Purpose: The objective of this paper is to verify whether the ISO 9001 standard has an impact on the three components of intellectual capital, namely: human, structural, and relational capital.Design/methodology:  Drawing on the absorptive capacity theory, the knowledge creation theory, and the sociotechnical systems theory, we developed a conceptual model that was tested on a sample of 100 Moroccan companies certified under ISO 9001.Findings: The results indicate a direct impact of the ISO 9001 standard on human capital, an indirect impact on structural capital through human capital, and finally, the ISO 9001 standard influences relational capital through a serial mediation of human and then structural capital.Originality / Value: This paper is a response to the current international debate on the importance of intellectual capital for value creation. Indeed, for intellectual capital to create value, it must be developed, and ISO 9001 standard precisely enables this development, as demonstrated by the results. Considering that more than a million organizations hold ISO 9001 certification worldwide, this aligns with the international scope of the debate on intellectual capital.

A new accelerated algorithm with a linesearch technique for convex bilevel optimization problems with applications
Authors: Hanjing Adisak , Thongpaen Panadda , Suantai Suthep
Published: July 2024

We considered a convex bilevel optimization problem when the outer level problem was to find a minimizer of a strongly convex function over the set of solutions of the inner level problem which was in the form of minimization of the sum of a convex differentiable function and a nonsmooth convex function. In this work, we proposed a novel accelerated algorithm by employing both linesearch and inertial techniques for solving a convex bilevel optimization problem. Then, we proved the strong convergence of the sequence generated by our proposed algorithm to an optimal solution of the convex bilevel optimization problems without the continuity assumption on the gradient of the objective function. Moreover, we presented the convergence behavior of the proposed method by some numerical experiments addressing image restoration problems and data classification problems with least squares constraints. Finally, the performances of the restorative image and the data classification of the proposed method were compared with other existing algorithms in the literature. According to the experiment, our proposed algorithm had a better convergence behavior than the others in the literature.
La valeur parenthétique de la musique au cinéma : fondements musicologiques et picturaux
Authors: Adobati Mario
Published: July 2024

À plus d’un titre, la séquence d’ouverture des Harmonies Werckmeister (2001, Tarr Béla, Hongrie) se présente comme la synthèse des multiples problématiques qui irriguent le travail du cinéaste et de ses collaborateurs récurrents. Un facteur illuminé fait jouer à un groupe d’hommes ivres une éclipse du Soleil. Cependant, alors que la représentation de Valuska fait disparaître la lumière du soleil derrière la lune, une musique extra-diégétique résonne et la caméra entame un travelling arrière ascendant, élevant le cadre jusqu’à l’irradier de lumière derrière la vieille ampoule nue du bar. Cette association synesthésique de la musique et de la lumière, de l’immobilité des corps et de la mobilité du cadre, est une invitation à penser ce qui constitue, au plus profond, la « valeur parenthétique de la musique » (M. Chion) et le registre iconique de l’image au cinéma, soit la façon dont ce dernier puise dans les propriétés ontologiques de la musique (structure, harmonie, instrumentation) et de la peinture (motifs de l’Incarnation et de l’Ascension, ordre du visuel de l’image) pour signifier l’altérité absolue, la sortie hors du temps cinématographique et de sa diégèse : « lorsque s’avance la matière de la représentation, tout le représenté est en risque d’écroulement » (Didi-Huberman).
La rencontre entre le graffiti et le cinéma dans le film Vandal : vers une création hybride
Authors: Stepanova Olga
Published: July 2024

Le graffiti est un dessin ou une inscription tracée, sans autorisation des autorités, sur les murs des bâtiments ou d’autres surfaces de la ville. Souvent confondu avec le street art, le graffiti est avant tout une pratique illégale qualifiée d’acte de vandalisme par la loi. Le street art est, à son tour, une évolution naturelle du graffiti qui insiste plutôt sur son aspect décoratif, utilise l’humour et l’ironie et cherche la reconnaissance auprès du public. Incorporé dans le récit filmique, le graffiti perd une partie de ses caractéristiques pour prendre une forme considérablement différente de celle qu’il avait. Dans le film Vandal, réalisé par Hélier Cisterne, il semble avoir une existence indépendante de son support, se débarrasse des limites du cadre fixe pour remplir tout l’espace diégétique et regarder le spectateur. Le récit que le cinéma fait sur le graffiti se transforme progressivement en un récit que le graffiti fait sur lui-même.
Du rythme visuel au « rythme spatial du visible » : pour une musicalité spécifique au cinéma
Authors: Gaudin Antoine
Published: July 2024

Cet article commence par préciser la portée sémantique de la notion de rythme, et par dresser un bref panorama de ses occurrences dans les discours esthétiques sur le cinéma – que ces derniers émanent de réalisateurs ou de critiques/théoriciens. Cela permet de souligner la grande diversité des acceptions qu’a prise cette notion, en lien avec les contextes historico-culturels qui encadraient ses formulations respectives.Une attention particulière est portée à la contribution décisive que livre Jean Mitry, dans son ouvrage Esthétique et psychologique du cinéma (1965). Anticipant le mouvement de redécouverte du rhuthmos héraclitéen, Mitry tente de dégager le « rythme visuel » de ses analogies métriques « platoniciennes » (comme production d’équivalents visuels aux rythmes-cadences de la musique, conception particulièrement en vogue dans les années 1920, dont il souligne l’incohérence en termes ontologiques et psycho-perceptifs) pour le penser comme l’organisation, par le montage, d’un flux inscrit dans le mouvement global du monde visible à l’écran. L’enjeu pour Mitry est en fait de réfléchir à une conception du rythme cinématographique qui en ferait un « pouvoir signifiant principal », le principe primordial de l’organisation de la « vie des formes » cinématographiques.Cette conception dynamique et cosmogonique du rythme sous-tend notre approche de l’espace cinématographique, non comme un cadre stable et figé, mais comme une substance en évolution perpétuelle, un matériau intrinsèquement mobile de la composition, engageant le corps spectatoriel dans une épreuve essentielle du mouvant. Ce que nous appelons « rythme spatial du visible » n’est donc pas un équivalent pour la vue du rythme-cadence de la musique, mais un ressenti du mouvement dans la forme : un flux de contractions et de dilatations affectant les volumes de plein et de vide au sein du défilement continu des images.Ce lien intrinsèque entre le rythme et l’espace nous conduit à retrouver la « musicalité », non comme transposition pour l’œil des principes de composition musicale, mais comme puissance d’abstraction nichée au principe même du cinéma (et compatible avec la nature narrative et figurative de ses images) : une musicalité spécifique au cinéma, en somme, plutôt qu’un simple jeu de correspondances ou qu’une importation des procédés de composition de la musique au sein de ce dernier ; une musicalité qui, à rebours de toute référence picturale statique, nous invite à retourner à la source rythmique de notre expérience spatiale du monde courant.
Créations ciné-lyriques de l’entre-deux-guerres
Authors: Sergent Marion
Published: July 2024

Durant l’entre-deux-guerres, le public parisien pouvait découvrir des spectacles entremêlant cinéma et opéra. Si le Gaumont-Palace inaugure en 1921 un type de créations mélangeant les deux formes avec Les Valses de l’Amour et de la Mort de Jean Nouguès, l’Opéra de Paris n’est pas en reste qui déjà à la fin du xixe siècle utilisait les lanternes magiques. Après une collaboration avec la cinéaste Germaine Dulac en 1927, le décor par projection s’y développe dans les années 1930 sous l’impulsion de son directeur Jacques Rouché et de l’artiste Ernest Klausz. Le cinéma apparaît comme l’un des moyens les plus efficaces pour moderniser le décor, aussi bien pour renforcer l’illusion réaliste que pour explorer une esthétique avant-gardiste. Mais cette hybridation n’est jamais tout à fait la même selon les œuvres, d’autant que le cinéma peut se comprendre aussi bien comme industrie, technique de projection ou encore lieu d’une expérience collective nouvelle. Au-delà des questions artistiques et esthétiques se révèlent des enjeux économiques et sociaux, visant notamment à dépasser l’opposition entre culture savante et culture populaire.
Sustainable development and museum professions: a preliminary study in emerging trends and transformations
Authors: Gobbato Viviana
Published: July 2024

Over the past decade, the issue of sustainable development has initiated a new “revolution”, challenging the management and internal operations of all institutions and professions, even the most traditional ones, such as museums. This change is not only a response to external circumstances but also a reflection of the aspirations of internal actors. What are the new emerging trends desired by museum professionals? This preliminary study explores evolving trends in museum professionalism based on insights gathered during the 26th ICOM (International Council of Museums) General Conference in Prague (2022). It analyses 20 non-directive interviews conducted as part of participant observation. Focusing on the five heritage expertise areas identified by CHARTER Alliance – “planning and management”, “outreach and communication”, “preservation and safeguarding”, “crafts and traditional knowledge”, and “general knowledge” – the findings suggest a transformative shift towards greater audience connection, community involvement, and experimental approaches. Moreover, professionals also express an interest for sustainable museum practices. The study underscores a broader ambition to equip museum professionals with adaptive skills, emphasizing the significance of long-term viability, ethical practices, and community engagement. Thus, the recent new museum definition (2022) by ICOM in Prague and its latest actions reinforces these transformative features, emphasizing the sector’s pivotal role in shaping the future of heritage and museums towards more sustainable practices.
L’étude des pyrrhiques d’amphithéâtre sous l’empire : l’apport de l’iconographie
Authors: Berlan-Gallant Anne
Published: July 2024

Des sources littéraires, mais aussi des documents iconographiques, témoignent de l’introduction à Rome, dans le programme des spectacles de l’amphithéâtre, de brèves mises en scène de thèmes mythologiques qui portaient le nom de pyrrichae (pyrrhiques). Qu’il s’agisse d’exécutions de condamnés, de spectacles reconstituant les exploits cynégétiques de tel ou tel héros proche des uenationes, ou encore d’extraits de mimes, leur représentation dans l’arène, d’abord à Rome puis dans les provinces, impliquait le choix d’un thème mythologique déjà diffusé par des vecteurs accessibles à tous, comme le théâtre ou le décor des objets d’usage courant. À leur tour, ces spectacles d’amphithéâtre ont pu contribuer à confirmer et prolonger le succès des mêmes thèmes dans l’iconographie du monde romain, qu’il s’agisse des décors des plus riches demeures ou d’objets du quotidien produits en série. Cette place des spectacles dans la constitution de ce que l’on pourrait appeler un « dénominateur commun » des références mythologiques présentes dans le décor et dans l’imaginaire de tous les habitants de l’empire pose en même temps la question de l’influence du pouvoir impérial, premier organisateur de ces spectacles, sur le choix des thèmes ainsi privilégiés.
Les Syriens en mer Rouge et en Arabie du Sud aux premiers siècles de notre ère : apports de l’iconographie
Authors: Breton Jean-François
Published: July 2024

Deux bas-reliefs ornés de motifs d’attelages déployés, datant des premiers siècles de notre ère, ont été récemment trouvés en Arabie du Sud. Ils montrent tous deux une divinité nimbée debout sur un char tiré par des animaux sauvages, des lions ou des taureaux. Il s’agit là d’une iconographie orientale diffusée dans la région de Palmyre, et plus encore à l’est, en Iran et en Asie centrale. À ces deux‑là, vient s’ajouter un bas-relief de Shabwa, la capitale du royaume du Hadhramaout, représentant une divinité cuirassée, elle aussi nimbée. Ces trois bas-reliefs soulèvent des questions inédites, celle de la présence de dieux syriens (orientaux) en Arabie du Sud que fréquentent les marchands syriens, et indirectement celle de l’existence de lieux de culte ou de sanctuaires que l’archéologie n’a pas encore retrouvés.
Le stoïcisme :une métaphysique de l’informationou le matérialisme impossible
Authors: Duhot Jean-Joël
Published: July 2024

La philosophie s’est construite sur le dualisme. Esprit et matière, âme et corps s’opposent dans une évidence qui traverse presque toute l’histoire de la philosophie, et sur laquelle s’articule la question du matérialisme. Or il y avait une autre voie que ce dualisme qui, renouvelé par Descartes, a conduit la philosophie classique dans ses impasses : celle que les stoïciens avaient ouverte en toute connaissance de cause. L’âme est corps, la pensée est incarnée, sans que cela conduise au matérialisme, puisque l’univers est totalement finalisé. Cette solution, qui peut nous sembler artificielle, est en réalité parfaitement cohérente et s’appuie sur une métaphysique de l’information, qui permet de comprendre ce qui passait jusqu’à présent pour des subtilités plus ou moins gratuites, et dont nous pouvons aujourd’hui mesurer toute la pertinence. Le cosmos est organisé sur le modèle du langage, celui d’un sens encodé dans de la matière.
La « prohairesis » chez Épictète :décision, volonté, ou « personne morale » ?
Authors: Gourinat Jean-Baptiste
Published: July 2024

La notion de prohairesis est l’une des notions centrales du stoïcisme d’Épictète. Alors que cette notion avait dans l’ancien stoïcisme une place mineure, celle d’une forme d’impulsion consistant en un « choix avant un choix », et n’avait que rarement (notamment chez Diogène de Séleucie) un sens plus large, c’est bien à l’aristotélisme qu’Épictète paraît avoir emprunté une notion de la prohairesis comme choix préférentiel étroitement liée à celle d’eph’ hemin (« ce qui dépend de nous »). Mais Épictète a introduit de nombreuses transformations au sein de cette notion, l’étendant à toutes les facultés actives de l’âme, y compris l’assentiment, et faisant de la prohairesis la seule chose qui dépende de nous, et non pas un choix portant sur ce qui dépend de nous comme chez Aristote. Une analyse des différents sens de la prohairesis montre que cette notion apparaît à la fois comme une décision ponctuelle, comme la faculté de prendre des décisions, et, dans un sens plus particulier, comme le choix préliminaire d’un mode de vie ou d’un personnage. De ce fait, la prohairesis n’est pas à proprement parler une « personne morale », comme on le soutient souvent, mais contribue à la constituer parce que c’est elle qui constitue l’essence du bien et du mal.
Evolving Threat Landscape in IoT and IIoT Environments
Authors: Bhardwaj Akashdeep
Published: July 2024

The meteoric rise of the internet of things (IoT) and industrial internet of things (IIoT) is reshaping our world, ushering in an era of hyper-connectivity and automation. This interconnected landscape, however, presents a significant paradigm shift in the cybersecurity landscape. This chapter delves into the unique challenges that this interconnected world presents, outlining the vulnerabilities inherent in IoT/IIoT environments and the evolving tactics employed by attackers to exploit them. The sheer scalability of these ecosystems presents a significant challenge. Billions of devices are projected to be online in the coming years, creating a vast and ever-expanding attack surface. This chapter explores some of the most common attack vectors employed by malicious actors. One prevalent threat is the formation of botnets. By compromising devices, attackers can create a distributed network with immense processing power. This processing power can then be harnessed for a variety of malicious purposes, such as launching denial-of-service (DoS) attacks or generating spam emails.

Published: July 2024

This chapter conducts a comprehensive empirical review of internet of things (IoT) botnet detection to identify gaps in the literature. An empirical analysis of literature work related to IoT botnet detection is conducted. A state-of-the-art review of works done on IoT botnet detection is synthesized. This review is based on classifying the subcategories of IoT botnet detection, including honeypot and intrusion detection techniques, specifically host and network-based IDSs. This is further broken down into anomaly, signature, and hybrid-based approaches. Anomaly-based detections include machine learning techniques and deep learning techniques. Other detection methods include distributed techniques (software defined networking [SDN] and blockchain), graph theory approach, and domain name service (DNS) techniques. Finally, the chapter recommends future research directions in IoT security and the application of deep learning techniques.

Published: July 2024

This paper uses the new public governance concept to explore how to manage traditional markets in Indonesia, which are marginalized and threatened by modern shops and online stores. Comparative research was conducted in two markets in Yogyakarta and West Sumatra. The study employed a qualitative approach involving in-depth interviews and observations. It found that the two traditional markets are managed in a participative-democratic way, involving local culture/wisdom. The social environment contributes to the survival of traditional markets. The markets also function as a venue for social interaction, idea exchange, friendship, small talk, and political discourse. The study suggests that the management model used by these two markets should be implemented in other traditional markets in Indonesia. To strengthen the claim that the democratic-participatory model is more successful than other models, this study can be compared to research on markets managed by government agencies and those which are managed undemocratically by traders and the community.
