Leveraging Artificial Intelligence to Combat Illicit Activities on the Dark Web
Authors: El-Kady Ramy
Published: December 2024

Criminal and terrorist organizations seek to benefit from the advantages of using the Dark Web, especially its confidential nature and difficulty tracking users, to achieve direct illegal activities without any oversight or legal accountability. Sites on this network, which offer forged and stolen documents, credit card data, and personal accounts, have transformed into a black market for illicit activities, serving as a hub for criminals, hackers, hired killers, counterfeiters, and human traffickers, among others. The chapter seeks to analyze how to integrate artificial intelligence and machine learning in combating dark web crimes, shed light on illegal criminal activities across the dark web, and discuss ways to combat them in light of the relevant technical and legal challenges. The chapter suggests increasing interest in emphasizing artificial intelligence as a forensics tool to prove crimes, concerted international efforts, and strengthening international security and judicial cooperation to effectively confront organized criminal activities via the dark network.
Honor Killing
Authors: Yadav Tarun Pratap , Jain Tanisha
Published: December 2024

Honor Killing is an issue which needs to have a solution which is more or less universally accepted but before that it is important to understand what is Honor Killing, a definition which defines this heinous crime. Various states and its government bodies, organizations and jurists have tried to define the aforesaid crime but the definition still remains blurred. Different definitions have covered different aspects. This chapter basically deals with how various important organizations and others have defined or have given its stance on Honor Killing. This chapter also contains issues regarding the nomenclature, namely, gender biases. Almost everywhere the crime is considered to be a violence or abuse or crime in respect of women. It is not wrong to consider it as a violence against women because women were really subjected to it for a long time and it may not be wrong to say that the situation has become worse. But there is another side of the coin too. This crime can no longer be considered an offence related only to women.
Media Trial and Honor Killing
Authors: Kumar Sudhir , Agrawal Barkha
Published: December 2024

The power of the media lies in its omnipresence. However, the advantage of being closely related to the happening is that the media has the potential to paint a real and authentic picture. In the case of honor killing, this power of the media can potentially be used to reduce violence and crime through honest information in real time. Though there are worries about skewed and prejudiced coverage in the media, media reports have been vital in helping to understand this issue. The way the media portrays these social crimes helps to both bolster public opinion and convey about the backward social customs connected to them. The chapter focuses on the ability of the media to influence public opinion, which can play a key role in ending honor killings around the world. Media can contribute to the development of a fairer society for women by criticizing media portrayals of honor killings and examining the causes of this violence. The purpose of this chapter is to examine the quality of media coverage of honor killing and the relationship between them Media and Popular Culture.

Subconscious Factors Affecting Consumer Preferences Toward Green Investments
Authors: Mishra Kaushal Kishore , Pant Pawan
Published: December 2024

The global shift toward sustainability changes the behaviour of consumers, thus altering investment decisions. Conscious factors involve financial performance and risk management in finance, thereby changing consumers' preferences toward green investments; the subconscious ones have even more motivating effects. This chapter surveys the underlying psychological mechanisms that may explain this: cognitive dissonance, social norms, emotional resonance, and the application of cognitive bias-including the availability heuristic and the halo effect. Unconscious drivers- such as the desire for moral identity, loss aversion, and reciprocity- do not bias green finance appetite among consumers. Furthermore, this literature reveals that cognitive priming effects, green branding and narrative framing would subtly inform decision-making in such cases. Awareness of these factors brings a deeper understanding of why people are so keen on and attracted to green investments.
The Future of Hotels Robotics, AI, and Service Automation in Practice
Authors: Yan Zhuoma , Konar Rupam , Balasubramanian Kandappan
Published: December 2024

It highlights the advantages of RAISA, such as reduced costs, enhanced accuracy, and service consistency, while addressing challenges like limited emotional engagement and technical shortcomings in human-robot interaction. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated RAISA adoption, prompting hotels to incorporate contactless technologies to meet evolving customer expectations. However, concerns over a lack of empathy and adaptability remain, as robots struggle to replicate human social skills. The chapter offers solutions for optimizing RAISA use, including differentiating between tasks for robots and human staff and promoting collaboration. It concludes with recommendations for future research on human-robot collaboration, privacy, ethics, and RAISA's role in achieving sustainable development goals in the hotel sector.
Behavioural Economics and the Rise of Sustainable Investments
Authors: Pant Pawan , Mishra Kaushal Kishore
Published: December 2024

This shift in financial decision-making, influenced by behavioural economics and sustainable investment, is a significant and crucial development. Understanding how cognitive biases, social preferences, and psychological factors impact investor behaviour in the context of ESG and impact investments is of utmost importance. This understanding can explain why investments often deviate from sustainability. We can gain insights into these deviations by analyzing present bias, loss aversion, and herd behaviour. The chapter delves into the types of nudges, such as framing effects and default options, that can guide financial decisions towards sustainability. The chapter uses global and local case studies, such as India's emergence in green bonds and ethical funds, to illustrate that behavioural economics not only explains but also drives the trend towards responsible investing. It concludes by offering insights into how policymakers, financial institutions, and corporations can leverage behavioural insights to promote long-term sustainable investments.

Published: December 2024

This study aimed to characterize lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from Costa Rican agro-industrial waste and explore their bioprotective potential against Salmonella in yogurt. A total of 43 LAB isolates were identified using the 16S rRNA region. In vitro inhibition of Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli was determined. 15 of the 43 isolates showed a good to strong antimicrobial effect against at least two pathogens. 14 selected isolates were evaluated for antibiotic resistance, gelatinase, and hemolytic activity. The bioprotective effect of the most promising strain, Lactiplantibacillus pentosus, was assessed against Salmonella sp. during yogurt fermentation. All the isolates were resistant to vancomycin and showed variable degrees of susceptibility to other antibiotics. All of the isolates were negative for gelatinase, and 5 isolates had no hemolytic activity. A significant inhibitory effect of L. pentosus_58(6)-2I (p<0.05) against Salmonella during fermentation was found, but pathogen reduction was limited to 0.611 log CFU/mL.

Authors: Lounis Mohand Amokrane , Behtani Amar , Bochra Khatir , TIACHACHT Samir , Slimani Mohand
Published: December 2024

Structural damage, whether visible or hidden, is an inevitable occurrence in all structures, machines, and tools, arising from factors such as machining processes, wear, and impact. Over the years, significant efforts in structural dynamics have been devoted to evaluating and reconciling numerical models with experimental data to accurately detect and quantify such damage. This study presents a comprehensive approach to identifying and quantifying structural damage in multilayer composite beams by first assessing the global modal and frequency differences between undamaged and damaged structures using the Frequency Response Function (FRF) method. These results are then utilized in various metaheuristic optimization algorithms to precisely detect and quantify the extent of the damage. The focus of this work is to evaluate the effectiveness of three optimization algorithms: the African Vulture Optimization Algorithm (AVOA), the Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA), and the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). These algorithms are tested on a composite structure to determine their accuracy and computational efficiency in identifying structural damage.

The BBCH model of seasonal growth of Cydonia oblonga Mill. in Ukraine
Authors: Ilyinska Antonina , Klymenko Svitlana
Published: December 2024

Phenology has not lost its relevance, especially now, when the global warming is making itself known more and more clearly. Phenological data obtained according to the BBCH system have a wide range of application: from the biological identification of global and regional weather and climate changes to the use in the selection of new cultivars of plants adapted to modern living conditions. We found out the BBCH model of phenological growth of 19 cultivars of Cydonia oblonga Mill. (Rosaceae) of the collection of the M.M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NBG). In the climatic conditions of Ukraine, quince goes through an entire cycle of seasonal growth. Codification of the phenological phases of growth according to the BBCH system showed that for quince, as for other fruit plants of the Rosaceae family, is characterized by eight of the ten principal stages of seasonal growth, in particular: the development of buds (principal growth stage 0: bud development), leaves (principal growth stage 1: leaf development), shoots (principal growth stage 3: shoot development), inflorescence (principal growth stage 5: inflorescence emergence), flowering (principal growth stage 6: flowering), fruit development and ripening (principal growth stage 7: fruit development; principal growth stage 8: maturity of fruit) and senescence and onset of dormancy (principal growth stage 9: senescence, beginning of dormancy). Cydonia oblonga has vegetative and vegetative-generative buds. It differs from some other fruit plants of the Rosaceae family by the specific course of the principal growth stage 5. Quince flowers are initiated from the apical meristem of one-year shoots, therefore they do not have phenophase 51, and at the stage of development 53 they are visually invisible due to the fact that they are tightly wrapped by leaves. The studied quince cultivars of the NBG collection are similar to each other in the course of most phenophases of seasonal development. The BBCH model of the seasonal growth of quince in Ukraine corresponds to two other comparable models that record the seasonal growth of this species in Spain (Murcia region) in a semi-arid Mediterranean climate with very mild winters and hot summers and Brazil (Pelotas region) in a warm tropical climate. These facts confirm the ecological plasticity of the species and its high adaptive and reproductive capacity, which can be the key to the expansion of the region of quince cultivation in Ukraine, including through the creation of industrial plantations.

Published: December 2024

In the second half of the 90s, the Dramafest Foundation, one of the most important festival organisers in Romania, initiated a program in Târgu Mureș aimed at encouraging stage practices that rely on dialogue and collaboration between playwrights and theatre-directors. This as created a theatrical context conducive to the emergence of new dramaturgical voices, as well as their scenic fulfilment. This article aims to talk about the fruitful encounter between the director Theodor-Cristian Popescu, Andreea Vălean’s play, If I Want to Whistle, I Whistle... and a group of student-actors from the University of Theatre Arts in Târgu Mureș, not forgetting to point out that all this happened because someone, at some point, generated a favorable context, namely the Dramafest project.
suicidio del trabajador en las fronteras de la presunción legal del accidente de trabajo: análisis técnico jurídico enmarcado en un debate doctrinal y jurisprudencial
Authors: Monereo Pérez José Luis , López Insua Belén del Mar
Published: December 2024

La calificación del suicidio como accidente de trabajo no resulta fácil de esclarecer a tenor de lo preceptuado por el artículo 156 de la Ley General de la Seguridad Social. Y es que, en este terreno, juega un enorme papel el elemento de la voluntariedad y su inescindible conexión con el trabajo generan una enorme controversia judicial y doctrinal que, hoy día, no resultan fácil de demostrar (ni siquiera a la luz de los informes médicos e, incluso, la carta de suicidio del trabajador). De ahí que los tribunales examinen hasta el último detalle de cada una de las circunstancias que rodean el caso concreto, debiéndose -a veces- entrometer en la vida privada para así esclarecer los hechos. Es por ello que, en ocasiones, juegue en este terreno la llamada "presunción de laboralidad".
Safety Assessment RP608 Genetically Modified GHB614 Cotton
Authors:   Food Standards Agency,   Food Standards Scotland
Published: December 2024

“Following the submission of application RP608 to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) under assimilated Regulation (EC) No. 1829/2003 from BASF Agricultural Solutions Seed US LLC, (New Jersey, USA), FSA/FSS (Food Standards Scotland) have undertaken a safety assessment on genetically modified GHB614 cotton. To support the safety assessment by FSA/FSS, the Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes (ACNFP) provided advice to FSA/FSS on the data submitted for the renewal of authorisation for the genetically modified cotton GHB614, as outlined in this document. The advice of the ACNFP has been taken into account in this safety assessment which represents the opinion of FSA/FSS on the safety of genetically modified GHB614 cotton.

Cotton is primarily used worldwide for its lint, however raw, unprocessed cottonseed may be fed to ruminants as meal, or the seed can be processed into oil. Cottonseed oil has been in use since the 19th century and is considered to be a premium quality oil. GHB614 cotton is modified to express the 2mEPSPS (5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase) protein. The 2mepsps gene sequence has been modified by introducing two mutations to the epsps gene from maize which decreases the binding affinity of glyphosate, conferring tolerance to glyphosate herbicides.

GHB614 cotton has previously been authorised for food and feed uses and is most commonly used as animal feed. The scope of this application is for the renewal of the authorisation for placing on the market GHB614 cotton products for food and feed uses, import, and processing. The application does not include cultivation and therefore no GHB614 cotton will be grown in the UK.

In providing its advice on the safety of GHB614 cotton for food and feed, the ACNFP considered data provided as part of application RP608 (post-market environmental monitoring reports, evaluation of systematic literature searches, additional studies performed by or on behalf of the applicant, and updated bioinformatics analyses), additional information provided by the applicant, and analyses and reports from outside contractors. The ACNFP assessed these data for possible new hazards, modified exposures, or new scientific uncertainties identified during the authorisation period and not previously assessed in the context of the original application (EFSA GMO Panel 2009).

FSA/FSS concludes, based on ACNFP advice, that there is no evidence in the renewal application RP608 for new hazards, modified exposures, or new scientific uncertainties that would change the conclusions of the original risk assessment on genetically modified cotton GHB614 (EFSA GMO Panel 2009).”

This paper describes various Asset Management tools in the transmission
system, with a particular focus on the application of software packages based on Geographic
Information System (GIS) platforms. Efficient application of Asset Management in the
transmission system is crucial for maintaining the reliability and stability of the electrical
grid, reducing operational costs, and extending the lifespan of infrastructure elements.
Thus, the direct application of specific software for detection of atmospheric discharges
near power lines, software that displays temperature distribution in cable lines, or software
that records the location of illegally constructed objects that threaten the reliable operation
of power lines, each in its own way accelerates fault detection, reduces downtime, and
minimizes the probability of undesirable events during the operation of assets. These tools
can be used for condition analysis or risk and reliability assessment of the system.
The paper presents the results of the implementation of these technologies based on real-
world examples. The effects of these tools on the efficiency of Asset Management are
analyzed, along with potential challenges and future development opportunities. The
conclusions highlight the importance of integrating these tools into standard management
procedures of power systems and the need for continuous improvement of software solutions
to keep pace with the increasingly complex approaches to Asset Management in modern
power grids.

The protection of personal data is an asset of the European Union
proclaimed through the right to privacy, which is of a universal nature, established in
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted in 1948, and it also exists in Article
8 of the Convention on Human Rights from 1950. Technical-technological development
has created the conditions for this to be one of the key areas that combines the first and
informatics. The legal protection of personal data is guaranteed through the right to
privacy in the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as in both entities, as
more attention is paid to the aforementioned in the Constitution of the Republic of
Srpska. The matter is regulated by the Law on the Protection of Personal Data of Bosnia
and Herzegovina, and the intention is to adapt it to European legislation, the General
Data Protection Regulation of the European Union, which is expected this year, and the
Republic of Serbia has done so in 2021. The protection of personal data is studied at
master's studies, and we suspect that it will soon be a subject of basic studies, the right
to protect personal data, where theory catches up with practice, even though life is much
faster than the legal norm. The connection between law and informatics is necessary due
to the emergence of artificial intelligence, the introduction of detachment centers, as well
as the need for security regulation at all levels. Cooperation is necessary for the purpose
of joint development of security policies, as well as a large number of regulations, for
example, regulations on video surveillance, where a particularly sensitive group of data,
biometrics, is processed, and it is necessary that these technical conditions are known.
Practically speaking, implementation is achieved through the standardization of work,
the introduction of the ISO 27001 security standard, the appointment of a DPO, the
appointment of a compliance officer, as well as a personal data protection commissioner.
Then it is necessary for companies that fall under critical infrastructure to invest in
ICT, for the purchase of commercial system software related to security, for example
Firewall, SIEM with a digital forensics module, as well as in branded equipment. All of
the above should be contractually regulated (SLA, OLA, NDA, EULA, SMART
CONTRACT) where rights and obligations will be explicitly defined
DIGITALIZATION OF HV SUBSTATIONS – VIRTUALIZATION CONCEPTS
Authors:   WSP UK LTD, Mijušković Srđan , Lović Adis ,   ACINEL d.o.o
Published: December 2024

The concept of virtualization represents the very basics of the IEC 61850
standard, defined more than two decades ago and made official with the publication of the
first edition of the Standard in 2003. The modularity of logical functions, the possibility of
allocating protection and control functionalities through the appropriate display of the
elements of the HV substation in a digitized environment is the primary idea of the
virtualization concept. Through considering the possibilities of related solutions in industrial
systems and insight into the potential of adequate models of information and communication
technologies (ICT), new possibilities appeared that we associate with the term virtualization.
An option with the potential to direct the flow of a large amount of network data in digitized
HV substations, the characteristics which shall be analyzed, is VLAN (Virtual Local Area
Network). In addition to the above, the term virtualization gains special weight due to the very
modern and intriguing model of centralization and virtualization of protection and control
system applications. The idea of the paper is to bring the mentioned diverse concepts closer
together, as they primarily defined by the identical term - virtualization

LINGUISTIC APPROACH TO MISTAKES IN LANGUAGE C (ENGLISH) TARGET TEXTS: SPANISH - FRENCH LANGUAGE INTERFERENCES AND OTHER TRANSLATION ISSUES
Authors: Tena Francisco Godoy
Published: December 2024

Translation teaching is extremely important in translation and interpreting courses. Owing to this, translation lecturers should be aware of how to teach, monitor, and correct translation students, as they may have a lack of terminology as well as a lower level of their working languages. These grammatical requirements need to be dealt with at the earliest stages of their translation training. One of the most important concerns for translation lecturers is the problems that future translators may experience within their professional careers. These issues become more serious as translation students work with more than two languages. Owing to this fact, they may encounter many interferences, especially in their initial university years. This issue in the translation is remarkable in the Spanish-French-English combination, when English is the third working language of these translation students (language C). As translation students need to have ongoing training, this difficulty needs to be solved from the beginning of their translation learning process. Thanks to this, translation lecturers have the possibility of dealing with these issues earlier, before translation mistakes become fixed and fossilized in their translation process. This research is based on a practical project that has been implemented in language and translation subjects taught in the first and third year of the Translation and Interpreting degree at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain. This study assesses, analyses, and evaluates translation problems mainly based on interferences but extended to other usual issues that may arise from the initial source text into the final target text. Additionally, it provides some conclusions to solve those problems and further comments for students who begin their academic careers in translation.

AN EVALUATION OF THE SYLLABUS IN TEACHING AND LEARNING OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IN CHADIAN SECONDARY SCHOOLS
Authors: Safotso Gilbert Tagne , Tao Célestin
Published: December 2024

Chad has over 200 local languages plus French and Arabic as its two official languages. All the other languages taught/learnt in the country are seen as foreign ones. Since the early 21st century, of those languages, Chadian learners have been having a strong interest in English, which they see as a developmental tool. However, given the embryonic state of that language in the country, very little research has been carried out to see how Chadian learners acquire it, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the policy put in place to foster it. This paper critically looks at the current syllabus used in the teaching/ learning of the English language in Chadian secondary schools. The informants came from various secondary schools in N’Djamena, and the data were gathered through interviews and questionnaires administered to both teachers (N50) and learners (N100). The findings show that the current syllabus mostly dwells on grammar and vocabulary, leaving out other key components of the language such as socialisation, fluency or the various types of writing which make efficient users/speakers of any foreign language. The teaching approaches proposed/used, and the textbooks in use have not been adapted. The vast majority of teachers recruited to teach that subject are not trained /qualified. All these factors combine to make the teaching of the English language inefficient in Chadian secondary schools. This study ends with some proposals on how to ameliorate the syllabus to make it more adequate.

IDENTIFICATION OF 8TH GRADE STUDENTS' COGNITIVE STRUCTURES RELATED TO THE CONCEPTS OF BIODIVERSITY, SPECIES AND ECOSYSTEM
Authors: Bulut Gamze , Yüce Zeynep
Published: December 2024

Human beings have tried to investigate, explore, and define the environment they live in since the moment they came into existence. Humans have utilized these creatures to discover answers to their changing requirements and to further their own interests by acknowledging their surroundings, adapting their way of life to suit them, and integrating them into their daily existence. Biodiversity is a quite broad concept that covers all living things in the environment we live in. This study aims to reveal the conceptual schemas existing in the cognitive structures of 8th grade students in order to determine their conceptual knowledge levels related to the subject of biodiversity. The study sample consisted of 286 students studying in the 8th grade in the 2022-2023 academic year. The research is a qualitative study conducted using the survey model. “Word Association Test (WAT)” was used as a data collection tool.

LEADERSHIP DES FEMMES CHEFS D’ÉTABLISSEMENTS DES ÉCOLES PRIMAIRES DANS LA SOUS-PROVINCE ÉDUCATIONNELLE DE NGALIEMA DE KINSHASA EN RDC
Authors: Edouard Yata , Corneille Luboya Tshiunza
Published: December 2024

Les préjugés et limites portés sur les femmes ont occasionné la rareté des femmes dans le leadership des organisations tant scolaires que parascolaires. Conscient du fait que la société semble ne pas trop faire confiance aux femmes à ce niveau de responsabilité, celles qui dirigent ces institutions sont des exemples qu’il faut interroger pour comprendre le rendement de leur leadership dans un domaine qui est encore fort masculinisé. La montée spectaculaire des femmes aux postes de responsabilité pousse les chercheurs à se questionner sur l’efficacité du leadership féminin. Comprendre comment les femmes dirigent leurs écoles est une nécessité pour la société en vue de les mettre à la place où elles ont été discriminées pendant plusieurs siècles et de donner des références à des générations montantes. L’étude a expliqué le leadership des femmes chefs d’établissements des écoles primaires dans la sous-province éducationnelle de Ngaliema de Kinshasa en RDC. L’atteinte de cet objectif était possible grâce à l’enquête par questionnaire des données dans un échantillon de commodité ou au jugement de 50 femmes-leaders, soit 79,4% de la population. L’analyse statistique (pourcentage, moyenne et écart-type) a permis l’analyse des données. Les résultats ont montré que les femmes chefs d’écoles primaires dirigent par l’exemple, la construction d’une communauté scolaire, l’élaboration, l’exécution et l’évaluation des projets éducatifs, le développement personnel et l’inclusion. Les femmes chefs d’écoles primaires privilégient la collaboration dans une logique de perfectionnement, de conscientisation et d’efficacité pour influencer le corps professoral, le personnel administratif ainsi que les parents pour un meilleur rendement de leurs élèves. Les directrices des écoles préfèrent utiliser le leadership démocratique. Le leadership employé améliore le rendement qualitatif et quantitatif de leurs élèves dans les aspects d’apprentissage, d’acquisition des compétences et des évaluations. Les femmes chefs d’écoles primaires sont motivées par le désir d’accomplissement personnel, du changement qualitatif dans leurs écoles, d’engagement social et de l’émancipation de la femme.

THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF MOTIVATION ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CLASSROOM ENVIRONMENT AND STUDENTS’ ATTITUDE TOWARDS SCIENCE
Authors: Tuballa Ivy D.
Published: December 2024

This study untangled the effect of motivation on the relationship between classroom environment and grade 12 students’ attitude towards science. The researcher used quantitative non-experimental type of research and correlational techniques. The study was conducted in seven selected public schools in Davao City where senior high school students are present. There were four hundred (400) grade 12 student participants in total, consisting of two hundred (200) males and two hundred (200) females. The respondents rated on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 denoting agreement and 1 denoting disagreement from the items that were given to them. Also, ethical procedures were observed. The data that were gathered from the level of classroom environment, motivation, and attitude towards science indicated that the respondents' perceptions of these factors were observed sometimes. Meanwhile, the correlations between Classroom Environment and both the Motivation and Attitude of students toward science had a significant relationship. The same is true with the correlations between the students' Motivation and their Attitude toward Science and on the Mediating Effect of Motivation. Therefore, the physical environment of the classroom is its strongest point, while managing behavior requires attention.
