The Strategy of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt Facing Historical Cycles of Oppression and Legitimation
Authors: Nobel-Konig Limor
Published: November 2024

This study analyzes the strategy of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in Egypt facing cycles of repression and legitimation throughout its history. The analysis suggests that the strategic shift into a political activity has proved to be effective, but only for a short period of time. President Morsi must have assumed that the MB in Egypt was closer than ever to achieving its strategic political goals, since for the first time in its history it founded a legitimate political party and won the elections. Reviewing the strategy of the MB in Egypt may lead to describe it as pragmatic. However, the unique nature of the MB as a political movement with a religious affiliation - an Islamic political movement, may challenge the pragmatic nature of its strategy. Thus, the alleged pragmatic strategy of the movement may eventually serve a strategic radical goal rather than lead to moderation.
The Relationship Between Public Expenditures and Openness in the MIST Countries
Authors: Yıldız Şaduman
Published: November 2024

After the Second World War, increases were observed in both public expenditures and openness, and researchers started to investigate the relationship between these two variables. As a result of the investigations, three hypotheses revealing the relationship between public expenditures and openness were developed. These hypotheses are the compensation hypothesis, the efficiency hypothesis, and the deindustrialization hypothesis. According to the compensation hypothesis, there is a positive relationship between openness and public expenditures, and openness increases public expenditures. On the other hand, according to the efficiency hypothesis, there is a negative relationship between public expenditures and openness, and openness reduces public expenditures. Finally, according to the deindustrialization hypothesis, there is no relationship between public expenditures and openness.
In the present study, the effect of openness on public expenditures in the MIST (Mexico, Indonesia, South Korea, and Turkey) countries was tested via panel data analysis using annual data for the 1960-2021 period. In this respect, as a result of the LM cointegration test, it was concluded that there was a cointegration relationship between the variables of public expenditures and openness. Afterward, a coefficient estimate was made for the variables with the CUP-FM and BA-OLS tests, and a positive relationship was revealed between the variables of public expenditures and openness. Finally, the result of the Fisher causality test supported the result of the LM cointegration test. Thus, it was concluded that the compensation hypothesis was valid in the MIST countries for the 1960-2021 period.

The community service program conducted in the fostered village of LPPM USU, namely Kuta Mbelin Village, STM Hulu District, Deliserdang Regency, which already has a village information system (https://s.id/kutambelin) as a manifestation of a digital village, should convert the population data processed conventionally into population data that can be integrated with the village's needs. This includes the ability to monitor population growth, facilitate correspondence and archiving, obtain village population statistics, and more. To improve this data, the fostered village team is implementing an open-source Village Information System, commonly known as Open SID. The data processed by the village using MS Excel covers two hamlets out of the three in Kuta Mbelin village. Hamlet I has 261 residents and Hamlet II has 532 residents, while Hamlet III is still being processed by the village operator. This existing population data needs to be refined and integrated into the Open SID-based population data platform by first performing data cleaning to ensure it can be incorporated into the village information system. The data entry process is continuously carried out by the LPPM USU community service team and village operators, involving USU MBKM KKN students in the village.
Water Level Classification for Detect Flood Disaster Status Using KNN and SVM
Authors: Akbar Jiwa , Setyo Yudono Muchtar Ali
Published: November 2024

Flooding occurs when the water's surface elevation exceeds the average level, overflowing river water and creating inundation in low-lying areas. Early warning for potential floods significantly reduces losses, such as human casualties and property damage. In this context, the flood disaster classification system uses water surface elevation data from the Water Resources Agency to predict the likelihood of floods using the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) Algorithm. This research aims to classify flood status based on water surface elevation using the K-Nearest Neighbors and Support Vector Machine(SVM) methods in the Ciliwung River. The study results indicate that the SVM algorithm outperforms the KNN algorithm. The SVM algorithm used parameter C ranging from 1 to 10 in the scenarios, and the RBF kernel achieved 100% accuracy. On the other hand, the KNN algorithm achieved 100% accuracy only for K values of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 in scenarios where K ranged from 1 to 10.
Enhancing Hybrid Flow Shop Scheduling Problem with a Hybrid Metaheuristic and Machine Learning Approach for Dynamic Parameter Tuning
Authors: Hussein Ahmed Abdulmunem
Published: November 2024

This paper addresses the Hybrid Flow Shop Scheduling Problem (HFSSP) by integrating metaheuristic (MHs) and machine learning (ML) approaches. Specifically, we propose a hybrid algorithm by combining Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Iterated Local Search (ILS) to form ACOILS. To further enhance the performance of this hybrid approach, we employ Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), which is used for dynamic tuning of key parameters within the hybrid algorithm. The introduction of PPO allows real-time adjustment of key parameters, such as pheromone evaporation rates and local search intensity, to balance exploration and exploitation more effectively. Comparative experiments against the non-learning version of ACOILS and Simulated Annealing (SA) show that the learning based LACOILS significantly reduces the percentage deviation from the lower bound while maintaining stable performance through dynamic tuning. In terms of numerical results, LACOILS consistently outperforms SA and ACOILS. For smaller instances (N=20), it achieves up to 56.52% improvement over ACOILS and 12.5% over SA. For larger instances (N=150), LACOILS shows up to 29.82% improvement over ACOILS and 9.09% over SA, demonstrating its superior solution quality and efficiency.

Published: November 2024

Malware, or malicious software, continues to evolve alongside increasing cyberattacks targeting individual devices and critical infrastructure. Traditional detection methods, such as signature-based detection, are often ineffective against new or polymorphic malware. Therefore, advanced malware detection methods are increasingly needed to counter these evolving threats. This study aims to compare the performance of various feature selection methods combined with the XGBoost algorithm for malware detection using the Drebin dataset, and to identify the best feature selection method to enhance accuracy and efficiency. The experimental results show that XGBoost with the Information Gain method achieves the highest accuracy of 98.7%, with faster training times than other methods like Chi-Squared and ANOVA, which each achieved an accuracy of 98.3%. Information Gain yielded the best performance in accuracy and training time efficiency, while Chi-Squared and ANOVA offered competitive but slightly lower results. This study highlights that appropriate feature selection within machine learning algorithms can significantly improve malware detection accuracy, potentially aiding in real-world cybersecurity applications to prevent harmful cyberattacks.

The Drought by Aleksandre Kutateli: Religion, Revolution and Power in the Arena of Apocalyptic Expectations
Authors:   University of Georgia, Ghaghanidze Merab
Published: November 2024

The Drought (1927), a short story by Georgian writer Aleksandre Kutateli (1898-1982), draws a picture of a region of Georgia at the beginning of the twentieth century, when the country was part of the Russian Empire and revolutionary unrest was just beginning to stir.
The story describes (the last, enlarged version of the short story was published in 1974) a Georgian village where drought and an epidemic are raging, ruthlessly destroying plants, animals and people alike. Such a state of affairs inspires apocalyptic fears and feelings among the village residents.
The characters in the story fall under two categories: those with religious sentiments and apocalyptic expectations, on the one hand, and those with a revolutionary spirit, who plan to change the existing circumstances and are to establish a new political order, on the other. As the epilogue of the story notes, it is the young revolutionary forces that achieve victory when the communist government is already established in the country.
One of the protagonists of the story is an archpriest named Iakob Pkhakadze, a well-educated clergyman with no personal belief, who uses the religious feelings of the others in order to gain power and influence. This character seems to understand religion in the same way as the Grand Inquisitor from the novel The Brothers Karamazov (1880) by Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881)
did. It seems plausible to suggest that Kutateli, while perceiving Dostoevsky’s Inquisitor and creating his own image of archpriest Pkhakadze, was inspired by the work of Vasily Rozanov (1856-1919), namely The Legend of the Grand Inquisitor by F. M. Dostoevsky (1894), as this book had a notable impact on the twentieth-century modernist writers in general, and on the Georgian modernists in particular.

On October 2-4, 2023, the Linguistic Conference South Caucasian Chalk Circle 3 (SCCC-3) was held at Ilia State University, and the International Fall School of Linguists was also held within the same event (https://linguistics.iliauni.edu.ge/). The first SCCC met in Paris in September 2016 and was followed up by smaller meetings in North America and the second SCCC in Tbilisi in
2018. There was an unfortunate break due to the pandemic, and we were delighted to resume the meetings in person in 2023 at ISU, in Tbilisi. Following up on its general theme, SCCC-3 brought together linguists working on different aspects of the scientific study of language and experts in Georgian and South Caucasian (Kartvelian) languages and placed special emphasis on the
morphology and morphosyntax of polypersonal grammatical systems. As in the prior meetings, SCCC-3 included several tutorials, presentation and poster sessions, to create as much space for informal discussions as possible. In 2023, SCCC-3 also hosted tutorials on bilingualism, child language development, and experimental design in linguistic research. The conference was followed by the Fall School of Linguistics (5-10 October).
The conference and Fall School had a big variation of linguistic fields: Kartvelian languages (Georgian, Svan, Laz, Megrelian), Basque, endangered languages, language development, bilingualism, sign languages, neurolinguistics, morphology, phonology, syntax, lexicography, language heritage, dialectology, typology, corpus linguistics and language acquisition.
Together with Georgian linguists, the professors and doctoral students from different American and European Universities and research centres (University of Maryland, USA; University of Paris 8, France; CNRS – Université Côte d’Azur, IKER, Bayonne, France; University of South California, USA; Université Paris Cité, France; Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel; Boğaziçi University, Turkey; University of Milan Bicocca, Italy; University of Paul Valéry Montpellier 3, France; University of Chicago, USA; CNRS, SFL, Paris, France; Bar-Ilan University, Israel; Rice University Houston, Texas, USA, University of California, Berkeley, US; University of Montréal, Canada, Queen Mary University of London, UK; University of Toronto, Canada; University of Florence, Italy; University of Nantes, France participated in the event.

How Public is Public Art? A Critical Discourse Analysis of the Racial Subtext of Public Monuments at Canada’s Pier 21
Authors: Adamu Patience , Castello Deon , Cukier Wendy
Published: November 2024

Much of the literature on public space focuses on physical inclusion and exclusion rather than social inclusion or exclusion. In this paper, the implications of this are considered in the context of two monuments, The Volunteers/Les Bénévoles and The Emigrant, located outside the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. These monuments, while perhaps designed to celebrate Canadian multiculturalism, can be read instead as signaling Canada’s enduring commitment to white supremacy, Eurocentricity, and colonization when viewed through the eyes of racialized immigrants. Thus, the “public space” becomes exclusionary. In the context in which the monuments are situated, the racial subtext cannot be ignored. This article purports that images, text, and placement, regardless of intention, have significant implications on public space and public demeanor.
Supporting EDI in your SRC Lab or Group Environment (FEAS)
Authors: Program Dimensions
Published: November 2024

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) is a framework for creating an environment that is fair to all participants, welcoming to all individuals, merit-based, and able to thrive by permitting access to the largest possible talent pool. It recognizes obstacles and barriers that are experienced by members of equity seeking groups, and seeks to better identify talent and potential, and accommodate those with differing personal needs. Supporting EDI helps to reduce and eliminate its opposites, namely inequality, homogeneity (and thus less diverse lens, experience, point of view, and creativity), and exclusionary practices (both overt and inadvertent). Therefore, EDI follows from a moral and ethical imperative.

Assessment Of Spatiotemporal Variation In Inter-State Passenger Flow From Katsina, Katsina State, Nigeria
Authors: Yahaya Olanrewaju Yusuf , Shafii Husaini , Ubogu Andrew Egba
Published: November 2024

This paper examines the nature, pattern, and spatiotemporal variation of inter-state passenger movement from Katsina to other states across the country. Two major terminals were purposefully selected for the study, which are the Nigerian Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) and Katsina State Transport Authority (KTSTA). Questionnaires were systemically administered to departing passengers. Information on passenger flow was collected from the passenger register at the motor parks. A flow line map was used to show the direction of the flow, while a bar graph was used to show the volume or magnitude and temporal variation of passenger movement from Katsina to other states across the country. The findings reveal that the majority of the passengers were males who were married, and most of them were traders and civil servants; thus, work- or business-related trips account for most of the reasons for travelling. The findings reveal that the NURTW terminal has a wider spatial coverage of 11 states, while the KTSTA terminal has a spatial coverage of 9 states. Kano State is the most popular destination, followed by Kaduna and Abuja. Generally, the findings show a seasonal pattern of passenger flow with higher numbers in the later months of the year (October to December) and lower numbers in the middle of the year (June and July). Recommendations include the enhancement of transport infrastructures to cater to work- or business-related trips, seasonal adjustment, passenger demographic consideration, and promotion of off-peak travel. This is to ensure a more efficient and responsive transport system that meets the needs of travellers and maximises customer satisfaction.

Authors: Ariasari Agnes Nunung , Tjahjono Heru Kurnianto
Published: November 2024

This study employs a scientometric approach to analyze trends and relationships between work-life balance (WLB) and employee performance. The data were sourced from the Scopus database using the keywords “Work-Life Balance” AND “Employee Performance,” resulting in the analysis of 449 articles. The study examines research trends, collaboration networks, topic mapping, and the evolution of research themes from 1994 to 2023. Bibliometric mapping and data visualization were conducted using VOSviewer, RStudio, and CiteSpace. The findings reveal that WLB is a critical factor in employee satisfaction and engagement, directly contributing to improved organizational performance. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of remote work models, underscoring the significance of flexible working arrangements and effective HR management in achieving optimal WLB. Work autonomy and WLB are shown to have a substantial impact on job satisfaction and employee performance. A comprehensive strategy that integrates organizational support with individual well-being is essential to fostering a productive and satisfied workforce. This research provides a robust theoretical foundation for HR models. Practically, organizations should implement strategies that prioritize both organizational support and employee well-being to enhance workforce productivity. The telecommuting models and flexible arrangements that gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic should be permanently embedded into organizational policies. Future research should explore the relationship between WLB and various dimensions of employee performance within a broader context, taking into account cultural and industry-specific variations.

HOW LOYAL ARE THE CUSTOMER TO RECYCLED PRODUCT
Authors: TAMARA Dewi , MAHARANI Anita
Published: November 2024

Recycled products form a crucial component of the Reuse, Reduce and Recycle framework within the broader concept of circular economy. Nevertheless, consumer loyalty towards these products remains uncertain. This research aims to examine the determinants of customer loyalty for recycled goods, with customer satisfaction serving as a mediating factor. The study utilises a quantitative approach, gathering data through an online questionnaire distributed via purposive sampling. To assess the hypotheses, SEM Smart PLS analysis is applied to responses from 302 recycled product consumers. The findings reveal that brand image and environmental concern positively influence customer loyalty. Conversely, brand prestige and product quality demonstrate a negative relationship with loyalty, with the latter showing significant impact. Customer satisfaction mediates the connection between perceived price fairness, product quality, environmental concern, and customer loyalty. This research contributes to marketing and sustainability literature by demonstrating that customers can develop satisfaction and loyalty towards non-food recycled products. For future investigations into recycled product loyalty, a qualitative methodology is recommended.

Fundamentally, children with intellectual disabilities face learning difficulties, particularly in academic memory, and thus require education that emphasizes training, guidance, and support to optimize their potential. Visual learning is related to visual attention, memory, and the ability to distinguish conceptual and perceptual differences (shape stability, form/model, and base) and its cognitive aspects. The learning method we use involves several stages. First, we present two animated educational videos about letters and numbers, as well as animated videos introducing numbers, along with various interactive approaches for the participants with intellectual disabilities. The selection of participants is also based on the criteria and categories set by the institution. The results of this animated video learning are not only engaging and enjoyable but also foster good interaction between participants, educators, parents, and their environment. With visuals that are focused and well-organized, the learning attention can be directed effectively. The characters featured in the animated videos provide a more enjoyable experience, interact with the actions of the characters, and become iconic, making them easy for the participants to follow and remember.
