Rideshare Using Block-Chain
Authors:   Smt. Indira Gandhi College of Engineering, Ghansoli, Navi Mumbai, Kantekar Aasha
Published: April 2023

This project proposes a blockchain-based framework from the existing centralized framework for a ride- sharing service and implements the same as a decentralized application based on smart contracts on Polygon Blockchain. A ridesharing system helps riders to reach a particular destination driven by the owner of the ride. Most services available in the market are centralized and hosted by a third party which gives them the authority to monitor features like fare calculation, user data, etc. Privacy and trust are major concerns in such a system. The purpose of our project is to make a decentralized application for ride sharing where all transactions, fare calculation, matching and information is stored on a Distributed Ledger. The ledger will be accessible to all the peers in the network. This will match users with rides in a decentralized way without relying on third parties of any centralized network which makes the system transparent and reliable. The data on blockchain is immutable. Hence, this technology is used to store rides and user information to maintain security and ensure user privacy. Finally, this project provides guidance for future research with the promising and important directions in blockchain-based ride-sharing services.

Democratization perspectives through strengthening the person's security culture
Authors: Sprincean Serghei
Published: April 2023

The democratization of human society is directly related to the need to develop and impose a new model of approach to the security phenomenon. This new approach is an integral part of the security culture. The human society, but also the individual person, possesses a set of values and models regarding the counteracting of the security dangers and risks that form the security culture, among which the safety of the person occupies a central place. We believe that it is necessary to amplify, in the context of the globalization process, the culture of security, especially since the contemporary society is one of risks. Security culture, supported by the concept of human security, which emphasizes the non-military dimensions of security, also involves promoting the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms. Security culture also requires the establishment of mechanisms to strengthen security education and the ability of citizens to protect themselves against the diversity of security risks.

Published: April 2023

The main goal of this study is to reduce the brittleness of a fibre-reinforced cement base structure when exposed to the effects of graphene nanoplates, fly ash, silica, sand, and cement fillers to better understand the effect of hybrid nano/micro particle fillers on the mechanical performance of cross-ply carbon fibre reinforced epoxy resin composites. A three-point bending test through the width was used to measure flexural strength. The impact tests Izod at low impact velocity and Charpy through the thickness were used to determine the dynamic fracture strengths of pre-cracked and non-cracked composite samples. Also, the compressive test method was used to measure the compressive strength of hybrid particles and short glass fibre-reinforced epoxy resin composite square and circular columns. The results show compressive strength and flexural strength. Izod impact energy, Charpy impact energy, and dynamic fracture toughness of hybrid nano/microparticle-filled fibre composites have higher values than virgin fibre composites due to the influence of graphene nanoparticles and perfect interface bonding between two dissimilar molecules of nano and microparticles, which improve the fracture toughness and absorb impact energy. Overall, the results indicate that molecules of nano/microparticle-filled carbon fibre and glass fibre-reinforced epoxy resin composites can be used in aggressive environments because of the improved mechanical properties in comparison to the virgin fibre composites. In addition, SEM micrographs clearly indicate that nano- and microparticles are resistant crack propagation and deboned of matrix fibres.

Published: April 2023

BACKGROUND: Electronic directly observed therapy (eDOT) has been proposed as an alternative to traditional in-person DOT (ipDOT) for monitoring TB treatment adherence. Information about the comparative performance and implementation of eDOT is limited.METHODS: The
frequency of challenges during DOT, challenge type, and effect on medication observation were documented by DOT method during a crossover, noninferiority randomized controlled trial. A logistic mixed-effects model that adjusted for the study design was used to estimate the percentage of successfully
observed doses when challenges occurred.RESULTS: A total of 20,097 medication doses were scheduled for observation with either eDOT (15,405/20,097; 76.7%) or ipDOT (4,692/20,097; 23.3%) for 213 study participants. In total, one or more challenges occurred during 17.3% (2,672/15,405)
of eDOT sessions and 15.6% (730/4,692) of ipDOT sessions. Among 4,374 documented challenges, 27.3% (n = 1,192) were characterized as technical, 65.9% (n = 2,881) were patient-related, and 6.9% (n = 301) were program-related. Estimated from the logistic model (n
= 6,782 doses, 173 participants), the adjusted percentage of doses successfully observed during problematic sessions was 21.7% (95% CI 11.2–37.8) for eDOT and 4.2% (95% CI 1.1–14.7) for ipDOT.CONCLUSION: Compared to ipDOT, challenges were encountered in a slightly higher
percentage of eDOT sessions but were more often resolved to enable successful dose observation during problematic sessions.
Anodic HfO2 crossbar arrays for hydroxide-based memristive sensing in liquids
Authors: Zrinski Ivana , Knapic Dominik , Hassel Achim Walter , Mardare Andrei Ionut
Published: April 2023

The development of miniaturized and portable sensing devices is crucial to meeting the high processing capacity demands of contemporary computing systems. Hence, the conceptualization of memristive sensors for hydroxide-containing liquids is proposed in this study. Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) structures were formed on electrochemically anodized Hf thin films with Pt patterned as top electrodes. These MIM memristive structures were integrated into a crossbar array, allowing the investigation of a high number of potential memristor sensors. The MIM structures have demonstrated sensing possibilities in the detection of the hydroxyl ion in D-glucose, used as a standard solution. The sensing method was based on the resistive state ratio extracted from I-U sweeps measurements. Analytical characterization of the memristor sensor was done based on the resistive state ratio in relation to different concentrations of a standard solution drop cast directly on the surface of the device. Linearity was found for D-glucose concentrations ranging from 10 mM to 80 mM with a reasonable corresponding correlation factor (R2=0.96809). Additionally, D-glucose incorporation in anodic oxide was studied by XPS to investigate its effect on conductive filaments formation. A carbon bonded by a single covalent bond to oxygen (O-C-O) was detected, confirming the proposed sensing mechanism defined by the glucose penetrating the oxide/electrode interface.

Published: April 2023

La Responsabilidad Social Empresarial (RSE) es una táctica que promueve un desarrollo sostenible y sustentable del ser humano, al mismo tiempo que asegura compromiso y seguridad con las partes involucradas. Los tres pilares de esta estrategia incluyen la protección ambiental, el apoyo social y la mejora de las condiciones laborales de los empleados. Aunque la aplicación de la RSE en pequeñas y medianas empresas (PYMES) permite su desarrollo seguro y consolidado, existen barreras que han impedido su implementación. Un estudio reciente realizado en Ecuador se centró en investigar la aplicación de la RSE en PYMES y conocer la perspectiva de la comunidad. Para ello, se realizaron entrevistas con cuatro representantes de PYMES y 245 encuestas a la comunidad. Los resultados revelaron que la aplicación de la RSE por parte de las PYMES es limitada debido a la falta de conocimiento en su implementación, pero la comunidad cree que es importante que las empresas adopten este tipo de políticas para minimizar diversos problemas sociales.

Há muito tempo as pessoas vêm tentando entender a presença de avatares, fichas não fungíveis ou NFTs, moedas criptográficas, terras virtuais, e muito mais. Ocorreu uma mudança civilizatória. Todos os produtos digitais representam o que tem estado no mundo real para dentro do metaverso. Podemos brincar, fazer negócios, culto e muito mais neste mundo virtual paralelo. Esta mudança é indiscutivelmente um dos níveis de realização da civilização digital. As pessoas podem estar presentes não apenas no mundo real, mas em mundos paralelos que existem no universo virtual. O problema que surge com a presença de avatares, NFT, criptográficos, terras virtuais e outros em meio à hegemonia da economia digital é se a lei progressista na era pós-moderna pode: (1) assegurar que a direção da transformação digital possa correr de acordo com o corredor desejado em meio à hegemonia econômica digital; (2) prestar atenção a elementos sociais como a cultura e as condições sociais da sociedade, embora esteja absolutamente relacionada ao uso da tecnologia digital, a transformação digital não se trata apenas de tecnologia; (3) acelerar o processo de transformação digital não é impossível para criar uma divisão digital cada vez mais polarizada; e (4) assegurar que a transformação digital não tenha um impacto contraproducente, mas deve haver uma garantia de que ela não só beneficiará certos grupos, ao mesmo tempo em que marginalizará a existência de outros grupos. O mundo chegou agora ao progresso da inteligência espiritual que rompe a tradição do pensamento que se baseia apenas na lógica ou pensamento linear (Quociente Intelectual), mesmo pensando com sentimentos (Quociente Emocional). A inteligência espiritual intuitiva (Quociente Espiritual) dará um salto que não existe no funcionamento do quociente intelectual e do quociente emocional. Ao contrário das máquinas que funcionam segundo as regras, a vida humana tem muitos aspectos que não podem ser compreendidos e capturados pelas máquinas. A tese obtida neste estudo, "A civilização do universo metaverso pode coexistir com a pandemia de Covid-19 não é uma impossibilidade, mas uma necessidade". No final das contas, os vencedores são aqueles que podem se adaptar. Aqueles que aceitam uma nova perspectiva têm mais chances de sobreviver.

Physical activity has been consolidating itself as a non-pharmacological means in the prevention and treatment of diseases, especially arterial hypertension, favoring the reduction of State expenses with treatment and complications resulting from the worsening of health problems, as well as increasing the quality of life of those assisted. The recognition of Physical Education as a health profession is recent, having occurred in the late 1990s with the publication of Resolution Nº 218 of March 6, 1997, by the National Health Council. However, it was only from 2008 onwards, with the creation of the Family Health Support Center (NASF), that the PEF became legal to compose the teams that make up the health services, having the opportunity to contribute to the Unified System of health. From this perspective, this study aims to understand the process of inclusion of the Physical Educator in Primary Health Care and its importance in improving the health conditions of hypertensive patients assisted by the Family Health Strategy of Diamantina. This is a literature review study, with a search for articles in the databases of Portal de Periódico Capes and Google Scholar, considering the Portuguese language and a periodical window between the years 2004 to 2021. carried out with a Primary Health Care Professional. Despite the benefits of including PEF in health services, this has been a slow process, requiring professionals in the area to seek training to be able to occupy the opportunities offered, certainly increasing the health promotion process of the population assisted by the APS.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial endocrine-metabolic disorder that contains several theories about its etiology, including insulin resistance (IR) as a possible triggering factor for PCOS. Given this thesis, the implication of insulin resistance in the clinical management of PCOS is questioned. This research aimed to review the characteristics and pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome, having as main focus women with PCOS who have insulin resistance and what this would imply in the etiology and its clinical management. An integrative bibliographic review of scientific studies, published between 2012-2022, was carried out on the relationship between PCOS and metabolic disorders linked to IR that interferes with clinical management. The analysis of the articles revealed that IR interferes with the pathophysiology of PCOS and may be related to its origin. It was also found that the use of oral contraceptives can affect the IR in individuals with PCOS and that the first choice in clinical management is to change the lifestyle of this population. It is concluded that the first-line treatment in this population is a lifestyle change, however, studies on the correlation of PCOS and IR regarding its etiology and the use of oral contraceptives in patients with PCOS associated with IR are still lacking.
Productive potentialities of the Agribusiness sector in the Apurimac region, Peru: opportunities for international trade

Published: April 2023

The region under study has, for centuries, had agriculture as its main economic activity. Since pre- Hispanic times its fertile lands have had an agricultural vocation. In the last 20 years this reality changed and migrated to gold, silver and copper mining activities mainly. Although, the macroeconomic numbers of GDP and export values are important, this has not translated into local endogenous development and produces little added value. On the other hand, the size of the region's agricultural activity was gradually reduced. The objective of this research was to understand and identify the productive potential of the Agribusiness sector in the Apurimac region, in order to assess its opportunities for insertion into the dynamics of international trade, leveraging its comparative advantages in natural resources and its Andean agricultural supply. A qualitative approach was used with a document-type methodology based on primary and secondary information sources, which allowed the collection and classification of information with a longitudinal temporality between 2017 and 2019 with a non- experimental design level. Strengths and opportunities were found to face a process of Agribusiness export with solid bases, for which it is necessary to overcome challenges such as; the production of self-consumption, the atomization of the producers, to promote the associativity, besides strengthening the chains of value of Agro export that manage to integrate the Andean production to the large production, marketing and logistic centers of the coast and Peruvian north that allow to face successfully a process of internationalization

Arboviruses are diseases caused by so-called arboviruses, which include dengue virus, zika virus, chikungunya fever and yellow fever. They are a public health problem in the world mainly due to their potential for dispersion, their ability to adapt to new environments and hosts, the possibility of causing extensive epidemics and their universal susceptibility. The present work consists of a study of cases of arboviruses in Recife, capital of the state of Pernambuco, Northeastern Brazil, in the year 2021. First, data were extracted from official sources of the Municipality of the city of Recife on cases of dengue, chikungunya and zika virus in the year 2021. After this extraction, Python commands were applied to understand how the outbreak of these specific diseases occurred in Recife and to generate heat maps of the neighborhoods most affected by arboviruses. It was possible to conclude that arboviruses are not worrying reasons for death and do not cause high hospitalization of patients. As for the heat maps, the neighborhoods of Varzea, Ibura, Iputinga, Imbiribeira, Vasco da Gama and Dois Unidos were the most affected by the presence of the three diseases. In comparative terms, dengue and chikungunya have similar symptoms (fever and headache).

Published: April 2023

The present study aims to present which essential oils (OEs) have published scientific studies on their action on hair growth and potential use in the management of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). The searches were conducted between May and June 2021, in the electronic databases PubMed, Science Direct, and VHL, using the descriptors "androgenetic alopecia", "alopecia", "hair loss", "hair growth", "essential oil", "volatile oil" and "aromatherapy". In vitro and in vivo clinical studies were found with the OEs of the following species: Artemisia argyi, Angelica sinensis, Cananga odorata, Cedrus atlantica, Chamaecyparis obtusa, Laurus nobilis, Mentha piperita, Myrtus communis, Platycladus orientalis, Pimenta racemosa, Pogostemon patchouli , Rosmarinus officinalis, Salvia officinalis, Salvia sclarea, Thymus satureioides and Zizyphus jujube, alone or together with other vegetable oils and compounds. Research has shown that EOs stimulate hair growth by increasing microcirculation in the follicles, reducing scalp inflammation, or increasing the expression of growth factors. After reviewing the literature, it was concluded that there are several promising botanical ingredients for the treatment of alopecias, but there are still few solid and well-conducted clinical trials concerning AGA. Therefore, more studies need to be conducted for an effective evaluation of natural and complementary treatment options that better serve patients.
NEGACIÓN

Published: April 2023

En tan solo el ultimo par de ans, hemos visto titulares que llaman a los arquitectos a rechazar la “arquitectura rapida” (Prince-Parrott, 2021), unirse a las huelgas climaticas (Hopkirk, 2019), rechazar las actuales condiciones de trabajo (Daley, 2022) y acabar con la discriminacion racial (Maafi, 2021). Aunque la arquitectura contribuye de manera significativa a la creacion de entornos construidos que producen y reproducen las innumerables injusticias contemporaneas, este numero de Materia Arquitectura se pregunta si la arquitectura —como objeto y disciplina— puede adoptar una postura oposicional. En lugar de retomar la propuesta que en 1971 hiciera Adolfo Natalini, quien llamo a vivir sin arquitectura como medio para catalizar el proceso de creacion de espacios seguros, saludables y equitativos,1 la serie de articulos que aqui presentamos explora las formas en que la arquitectura ha utilizado historicamente —y sigue utilizando hoy— una estrategia de oposicion para lograr resultados a menudo inesperados que van mas alla de las convenciones.
Relationship between Secure Decision Points and Arbitrary Polygon Positions in Malicious Models
Authors: Yan Xueli
Published: April 2023

The problem of determining the position relationship between points and polygons is very extensive in practical applications. However, the existing solutions are only applicable to the case of convex polygons, and no solutions are given for arbitrary polygons. In addition, most of the existing schemes are carried out under the semi-honest model, and cannot resist the active attack of malicious adversaries. In order to solve these problems, this paper uses Paillier's encryption scheme, the idea of zero-knowledge proof to design a decision protocol to protect the position relationship between points and arbitrary polygons, which can not only prevent the deceptive behavior of malicious adversaries, but also extend the application from convex polygons to arbitrary polygons. A simulation example is used to prove that this paper is safe and efficient under the malicious model.
