This research was conducted to find out the marketing communication strategy of Al Quran publisher through an innovative program that was run to increase sales during the pandemic. Through qualitative approach with case study on one of the publisher of Al Quran which was established a few months before the pandemic and then had to fight crisis like the current one. The results showed that during the pandemic, everyone is required to follow health protocols to reduce the risk of being exposed to the virus or transmitting it to others. People also tend to focus on fulfilling their primary needs. Because Al Quran is not the primary need for society, even in Indonesia, where the majority of the population is Muslim. Masks and hand sanitizers are more important than Al Quran. To survive in the midst of the crisis, Al Quran publisher used marketing communication strategy consisted of advertising (conventional and online ads); sales promotion (brand ambassador, celebrity endorsement, and giveaway); public relations and publicities (collaboration partners and event sponsorships); direct marketing (cooperation with bookstores); interactive marketing (using interactive contents on YouTube Channel). This strategy is considered successful as a solution as evidenced by increased sales. This research is expected to provide input for publishing companies to create innovative programs as a solution to the crisis due to the Covid-19 pandemic
La construction de l’unité civique. Choses publiques, choses communes, choses n’appartenant à personne et représentation
Authors: Thomas Yan
Published: March 2023

Dans les contrats avec les particuliers, comme dans les procès qui les opposent à elles, les cités du monde romain apparaissent comme de véritables individualités juridiques. Les juristes d’époque impériale mirent beaucoup de soin à distinguer la cité comme collectivité humaine concrète et la cité comme sujet de droit. Envisagée comme propriétaire, comme créancière ou comme débitrice, la cité n’est pas la pluralité sociale de ses citoyens, mais une entité purement abstraite, distincte d’eux. Cependant, dans ces rapports de droit privé, la cité n’était pas à proprement représentée. Les esclaves publics et les actores judiciaires ne représentaient que la personne individuelle des magistrats. À Rome, la construction d’une personnalité juridique des entités politiques fut bornée par l’étroitesse du domaine réservé à la représentation : seuls se représentent les individus, et la représentation parfaite n’est possible pour eux que dans la sphère du droit domestique.
I Musulmani della Sicilia occidentale : aspetti antropologici e paleopatologici
Authors: Di Salvo Rosaria
Published: March 2023

L’analisi osteologica dei gruppi umani rinvenuti nelle necropoli islamiche della Sicilia occidentale ha messo in risalto le caratteristiche antropologiche degli inumati, gli aspetti biodemografici ed anche le forme patologiche da cui erano afflitti. A Palermo nella necropoli di Castello San Pietro risalente al X sec. d. C., cronologicamente la più antica, si sono evidenziati individui maschili di morfologia berbera piuttosto arcaica e una donna di morfologia araboide. Lo studio antropologico dei campioni coevi, rinvenuti nelle necropoli musulmane di Entella, Caliata, Monte Maranfusa, Monte Iato e di Segesta, ha rilevato una certa eterogeneità, più o meno marcata a secondo del gruppo umano preso in esame. In epoca tarda anche la diversa tipologia funeraria riscontrata in alcune aree cimiteriali sembra convalidare la presenza di due etnie. I dati conclusivi emersi dall’analisi antropologica mettono quindi in risalto una sostanziale differenza fra la fase cronologicamente più antica, i cui esemplari sono di provenienza extrainsulare (i primi Musulmani d’Africa), e la fase più tarda, con insediamenti umani dislocati nella Sicilia occidentale, in cui emerge un evidente ibridismo morfologico fra etnie musulmane e cristiane a conferma della loro pacifica convivenza.
La résistible ascension du vulgaire : persistance du latin et latinisation du français dans les chancelleries de France et d’Angleterre à la fin du Moyen Âge
Authors: Lusignan Serge
Published: March 2023

On a tendance à considérer que le remplacement du latin par la langue vernaculaire dans les chancelleries royales marque une étape importante du recul du latin dans la culture écrite de la fin du Moyen Âge. Dans le présent article, nous étudions les exemples du français en France et de l’anglais en Angleterre. On constate dans le premier cas que l’adoption du français par la chancellerie royale s’est faite au prix d’une relatinisation importante de la langue au cours du XIVe siècle. Dans le second cas, le retard de l’accession de l’anglais au statut de langue du roi s’explique par la résistance du latin et du français à l’usage de la langue vernaculaire d’Angleterre. Ce second exemple fait ressortir que la proximité entre le latin et le français a pu former pendant longtemps un double rempart à la montée de la langue vernaculaire et que l’anglais qui finit par devenir la langue des rois au XVe siècle s’était entre temps fortement romanisé.
L’administration de la Morée par Charles Ier d’Anjou (1267-1285). L’apport majeur d’une source délicate : les registres angevins
Authors: Sampsonis Florence
Published: March 2023

Les registres angevins de Naples, bien que reconstitués, forment la principale source de nos connaissances sur l’histoire de la Principauté de Morée durant le règne de Charles Ier d’Anjou, entre 1267 et 1285. Ils nous permettent notamment d’étudier l’administration de ce territoire par le roi de Sicile. Son intérêt pour l’Achaïe fut permanent, comme en témoigne le souci avec lequel il nomma et contrôla les différents officiers de la Principauté, politiques, militaires ou économiques. Par ailleurs, bien que ne s’étant jamais rendu en Morée, il s’attacha à préserver ses coutumes, et essaya de répondre aux revendications des habitants qui contestaient l’autorité de son représentant, le baile. Respectueux du droit moréote, mais aussi des structures sociales et religieuses antérieures à sa prise de pouvoir, Charles Ier innova seulement, semble-t-il, en implantant des établissements économiques angevins, tels les massarie. sur l’histoire de la Principauté de Morée durant le règne de Charles Ier d’Anjou, entre 1267 et 1285.

Notes sur l’évolution de l’administration byzantine en Adriatique (VIIIe-IXe siècle)
Authors: Prigent Vivien
Published: March 2023

L’auteur s’intéresse aux formes de l’administration impériale sur le littoral balkanique de l’Adriatique du début du VIIIe siècle à la fin du IXe siècle. Vers 700, les forces impériales sont concentrées dans le bassin central de la Méditerranée face aux armées et flottes musulmanes qui ont conquis Carthage et le pouvoir byzantin se retire de l’Adriatique. Le démembrement du commandement naval des Carabisiens à la fin des années 720 accentue encore cet état de fait. La chute de Ravenne, puis les progrès de l’avance franque, détermine vers la fin des années 760 la fondation du thème de Céphalonie dont l’autorité, au moins nominale, s’étendait certainement à toute l’Adriatique, voire au sud de l’Italie. Dans ce cadre, les situations les plus diverses sont observables. Un sceau permet de jeter une lumière nouvelle sur les élites de la ville de Dyrrachion, qui semblent reproduire les schémas observables en Italie. L’auteur s’oppose par ailleurs à la théorie identifiant l’archonte de Dalmatie au prior de Zadar à qui Byzance reconnaîtrait une large autorité au nord de l’Adriatique. Il propose d’en faire un fonctionnaire nettement plus régulier, sans doute en poste plus au sud, sur l’ancien territoire de Dioclée. Enfin, il aborde la question des zones d’administration spéciale, caractérisées par une large autonomie, notamment fiscale, qui existaient au sein du thème de Dalmatie, identifiant deux d’entre elles sur la base des sceaux du duc de Dalmatie et du katépan de Raguse.
On the Multiscale Oceanic Heat Transports Toward the Bases of the Antarctic Ice Shelves
Authors: Wang Zhaomin , Liu Chengyan , Cheng Chen , Qin Qing , Yan Liangjun , Qian Jiangchao , Sun Chong , Zhang Li
Published: March 2023

The mass balance of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is important to global sea-level change. The AIS loses mass mainly through basal melting and subsequent calving of the Antarctic ice shelves. However, the simulated basal melting rates are very uncertain in ice sheet models, partially resulting from the poor understanding of oceanic heat transports. In this article, we review the recent progress in understanding and simulating such heat transports. Regulated by major circulation features, Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) is much closer to the Bellingshausen–Amundsen Seas and the Cooperation Sea (60°E to 90°E) and the sector further east to 160°E. The ice shelves within these sectors are experiencing enhanced basal melting resulting from tropical forcing and intensified westerlies. Around West Antarctica, the isopycnal structure favors the delivery of CDW across slopes and shelves, while around East Antarctica, the persistent and strong westward Antarctic Slope Current (Front) acts to prevent warm-water intrusion. Both eddies and troughs favor heat transport to the fronts of the ice shelves and even into the cavities. The sharp contrast between the water column thicknesses on both sides of ice shelf fronts blocks the barotropic inflows and can excite topographic Rossby waves. Inside the cavities, the heat fluxes to the bases of the ice shelves are controlled by the cavity geometry, the circulations in the cavities, and the properties of the water masses beneath the ice shelves. Limited direct observations of cavities have promoted the development of various models. To improve basal melting simulations, meltwater plume models have been developed to study meltwater-laden mixed layer dynamics by increasing the vertical resolution, with recent advanced studies considering the vertical structures of frazil ice concentration and velocity. To reduce the uncertainties in the simulated and projected basal mass loss of the Antarctic ice shelves, future efforts should be devoted to improving the bathymetry and cavity geometry, investigating small-scale processes and parameterizing these processes in coupled climate–ice sheet models, and quantifying the feedback from the mass loss of the AIS.
Morphological changes in eyes after suprachoroidal high-frequency electrosurgical treatment of the retina
Authors: Saoud O. , Turchyn M.V.
Published: March 2023

A variety of methods and approaches are used for the surgical treatment of retinal detachment, among which high-frequency electrocoagulation through the suprachoroidal access has attracted the attention of researchers. The research question concerned the selection of the optimal mode of electrocoagulation with the help of a monopolar instrument of the original design, during which a strong chorioretinal adhesion occurs in a short period of time after surgical intervention, there is no need for tamponade, and the destruction of cells of chorioretinal structures is minimized, which is associated with the temperature factor of electrocoagulation. The study was conducted on 52 rabbits (104 eyes), which were divided into 4 groups: Group I – exposure voltage 10–12 V, frequency 66 kHz, current strength 0.1 A (16 animals, 32 eyes); Group II – exposure voltage 12–14 V, other parameters are identical (16 animals, 32 eyes); Group III – exposure voltage 14–16 V, other parameters are identical (16 animals, 32 eyes); Group IV– 4 intact rabbits, 8 eyes (control). The animals were euthanized, the eyes were enucleated. Fragments with areas after electrocoagulation were fixed on a device of the original design, which measured the strength of the chorioretinal adhesion on an electronic jewelry scale by pulling a thread tied to the sample until the sample ruptured. The tissues of the chorioretinal complex were also studied by light microscopy after staining histological sections with hematoxylin-eosin. According to indicators of chorioretinal junction strength, the optimal exposure voltage was 10–12 V. Destruction of cells of the chorioretinal complex at this voltage did not differ from destruction using voltages of 12–14 V and 14–16 V, but the strength of chorioretinal junction was the greatest after 1 hour. 1 week and 2 weeks after surgery.

Keywords: high-frequency electrocoagulation, chorioretinal surgery, retinal detachment, strength of chorioretinal adhesion.

Structure of the space of GL4 (Z2)-coinvariants Z2 ⊗ GL4 (Z2) P H∗ (Z42,Z2) in some generic degrees and its application
Authors: Võ Phúc Đặng
Published: March 2023

Fix $k = \mathbb Z_2$ to be a field of characteristic 2, let $A$ denote the Steenrod algebra over $k.$ A problem of immense difficulty in algebraic topology is the determination of a minimal set of $A$-generators for the polynomial ring $P_q = k[x_1, \ldots, x_q] = H^{*}(k^{q}, k)$ on $q$ generators $x_1, \ldots, x_q$ with $|x_1|= |x_2| = \cdots = |x_q| =  1.$ By way of equivalence, one may choose to write an explicit basis for the cohit space $\pmb{Q}^{q} := k\otimes_{A} P_q$ in each non-negative degree $n.$ This subject, which has now a long history, is the content of the classical "hit problem" proposed in [Abstracts Papers Presented Am. Math. Soc.  \textbf{833} (1987), 55-89]. Furthermore, it is closely related to the $q$-th transfer homomorphism $Tr_q^{A}$ constructed by William Singer in [Math. Z. \textbf{202} (1989), 493-523]. This map $Tr_q^{A}$ passes from the space of $G(q)$-coinvariant $k\otimes _{G(q)} P_A((P_q)_n^{*})$ of $\pmb{Q}^{q}$ to the $k$-cohomology group of the Steenrod algebra, ${\rm Ext}_{A}^{q, q+n}(k, k),$ wherein $G(q)$ stands for the general linear group of degree $q$ over the field $k,$ and $P_A((P_q)_n^{*})$ is the primitive part of $(P_q)^{*}_n$ under the action of $A.$ Particularly, the assertion that $Tr_q^{A}$ is always an injective map has been conjectured by Singer himself, but as of now, this remains an open problem for all $q\geq 4.$ Accordingly, the aim of the present study is to deal with the Singer conjecture for rank 4 in certain internal degrees. Specifically, by the usage of the techniques of the hit problem in four variables, we explicitly determine the structure of the coinvariant $k\otimes _{G(4)} P_A((P_4)_{n}^{*})$ in some generic degrees $n.$ Then, applying these results and a representation of $Tr_4^{A}$ via the lambda algebra, we state that Singer's conjecture is true for rank $q = 4$ in respective degrees $n.$ This has contributed to the final proof of Singer's conjecture in the rank 4 case.
IntelliChain: An Intelligent and Scalable Framework for Decentralized Applications on Public Blockchain Technologies: An NFT Marketplace Case Study
Authors: Rasolroveicy Mohammadreza , Fokaefs Marios
Published: March 2023

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have been attracting the interest of both technical and non-technical parties, including collectors and traders, among others. The number of transactions in NFTs surpassed $50 billion in 2022. Blockchain technology's advantages as a distributed, immutable, and transparent database make it ideal for verifying the ownership of digital goods created by their producers. On the other hand, high computation and transaction costs are known disadvantages of public blockchain networks like Ethereum V1, used in NFT marketplaces. To address these inefficiencies, other public blockchain systems have emerged as replacements for NFT marketplaces, each with its own unique properties. When planning such an NFT exchange, it is vital, but not trivial, to select the most appropriate public blockchain platform. In this work, we make two contributions to support this decision. In this paper, we present IntelliChain, a self-adaptive framework that can predict the best optimal transaction fees (also known as a gas fee) for blockchain to reduce the errors and also an ability to switch the public blockchain-based dynamic needs such as transaction fees and stability of the network.
Bi-junction electro-optic phase shifter
Authors: Ashour Mohamed
Published: March 2023

In this work, we propose and implement a bijunction depletion-type silicon electro-optic phase shifter. The phase shifter has a lateral profile of implants, that closely resembles that of a common bipolar junction transistor, and thus, has two polarities. These are acceptor-donor-acceptor (PNP) as well as donor-acceptor-donor (NPN). We realize both variants in IMEC ISIPP50G open-access silicon photonic technology and compare them to lateral and interleaved phase shifters. Both PNP and NPN phase shifters exhibit a VπLπ figure that is at least 14.47% and up to 45.1% lower than that of the lateral and interleaved phase shifters realized in the same technology. Bi-junction phase shifters can be implemented in any planar silicon photonic technology that offers bipolar implantations within silicon photonic waveguides.
EEG-to-EEG: Scalp-to-Intracranial EEG Translation using a Combination of Variational Autoencoder and Generative Adversarial Networks
Authors: Abdi-Sargezeh Bahman
Published: March 2023

A generative adversarial network (GAN) enables mapping a data sample from one domain to another one. It has extensively been employed in image-to-image and text-toimage translation. We propose an EEG-to-EEG translation model based on a GAN structure in which a conditional GAN (cGAN) is combined with a variational autoencoder (VAE), named as VAE-cGAN. Scalp EEG (sEEG) is plagued by noise and suffers from low resolution. On the other hand, intracranial EEG (iEEG) recordings enjoy high resolution. Here, we consider the task of mapping the sEEG to iEEG to enhance the sEEG resolution.  

 
Quantum Time Synchronization for Satellite Networks
Authors: Nande Swaraj Shekhar , Lhamo Osel , Paul Marius , Bassoli Riccardo , Fitzek Frank H.P.
Published: March 2023

Establishing accurate time standards across the globe is very important. The success of any real-time task depends on maintaining time synchronization in its system. Space technology helps in enabling global dissemination of time. In this paper, we propose a model that uses satellites to transfer the time information extracted from three qubits that are precisely synchronized using quantum synchronization. By applying an external field with wavelength 813.32 nm, we can synchronize the three qubits (each carried in another satellite) to oscillate at the same frequency. We can ideally achieve a precision of 1.6 × 1015 signals per second, and show the corresponding. Allan deviation curve to analyze the stability of our system for different noise strengths. We introduce the possibility of using quantum synchronization on satellite-carried clocks to distribute accurate time and frequency standards.
A Two-Layer Human-in-the-Loop Optimization Framework for Customizing Lower-Limb Exoskeleton Assistance
Authors: Zheng Siqi , Lv Ge
Published: March 2023

Task-invariant control paradigms can enable lowerlimb exoskeletons to provide assistance for their users across various locomotor tasks without prescribing to specific joint kinematics. As an energetic control method, energy shaping can alter a human’s body energetics in the closed-loop to provide gait benefits. To obtain the energy shaping law for underactuated systems, a set of nonlinear partial differential equations, called the matching condition, needs to be solved to determine the achievable closed-loop dynamics. However, solving matching conditions for high-dimensional nonlinear systems is generally difficult. In addition, how to define parameters for the closed-loop dynamics that render the optimal exoskeleton assistance remains unclear. In this paper, we proposed a twolayer, human-in-the-loop optimization framework for lower-limb exoskeletons to customize their assistance to human users. The inner-layer optimization finds solutions to the matching condition, meanwhile following the energy trajectories of a virtual reference model defined based on the self-selected gaits of humans and a scaled version of their anatomical parameters. The outer-layer incorporates human-in-the-loop Bayesian Optimization to update reference energy’s parameters for reducing metabolic costs. Simulation results on two biped models demonstrate that the proposed framework can solve matching conditions numerically at the selected timestamps and the associated energy shaping strategies can reduce human metabolic cost. Moreover, exoskeletons torques calculated using an able-bodied subject’s kinematic data well match human biological torques.

Published: March 2023

Objectives: to assess nurses’ knowledge and attitudes toward health promotion at Al-Hussein medical city in Kerbela.
Methodology: A descriptive study was carried out during the period of March 25th through June 30th, 2014 to assess the nurses’ knowledge and attitudes toward health promotion at Al-Hussein medical city in Kerbela on a sample of 120 nurses. A questionnaire was used in the study, which contain information about the demographic data of the nurses (5 items) & selected questions about their knowledge (14 items) and attitudes regarding health promotion (16 items). Data were analyzed through a descriptive, and inferential statistics (t-test and correlational statistics) using the SPSS, version 19.
Results: it was found that more than two thirds of nurses (68.3%) were no participate in training courses about health promotion .The study revealed that most of the nurses have adequate knowledge regarding majority aspects of health promotion except in the aspect of (Regular exercise is highly recommended for the obese, and obesity is always bad for health) were they have inadequate knowledge. Also, most of the nurses have positive attitude toward health promotion.
Conclusions: the present study concluded that there is a shortage in the training courses about health promotion for nurses; there is a lack of knowledge level about the importance of regular exercise for the obese; and, "obesity is always bad for health". In addition to the education level, years of experience and training have a positive effect on the level of nurses' knowledge. As well as training courses affect positively on nurses' attitudes toward health promotion.
Recommendations: the study recommended education program should be designed and implemented to nurses who were working in the hospital to increase their knowledge concerning health promotion. Also to carryout additional studies with larger sample in other Iraqi governorates.
Anxiety, Depression, and Stress Reaction/Adjustment Disorders and Their Associations with Healthcare Resource Utilization and Costs Among Newly Diagnosed Patients With Breast Cancer
Authors: Dai Dingwei , Coetzer Henriette , Zion Sean , Malecki Michael
Published: March 2023

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States. Newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer often experience anxiety, depression, and stress. However, the impact of psychological distress on healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and costs has not been adequately assessed. Objectives: To evaluate the incidence and prevalence of anxiety, depression, and stress reaction/adjustment disorder among patients newly diagnosed with breast cancer, to examine HCRU and costs, and to assess the association of these psychiatric disorders with costs. Methods: This retrospective observational cohort study was conducted using a large US administrative claims database with an index date of newly diagnosed breast cancer. Demographics and comorbidities (including anxiety, depression, and stress reaction/adjustment disorder) were assessed using data collected 12 months before and after the index date. HCRU and costs were assessed using data collected 12 months after the index date. Generalized linear regressions were performed to examine the association between healthcare costs and anxiety, depression, and stress reaction/adjustment disorder. Results: Of 6392 patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer, 38.2% were diagnosed with psychiatric disorders including anxiety (27.7%), depression (21.9%), or stress reaction/adjustment disorder (6%). The incidence of these psychiatric disorders was 15% and the prevalence was 23.2%. Patients with anxiety, depression, or stress reaction/adjustment disorder had higher rates of several types of HCRU (P < .0001) and higher total all-cause costs compared with patients without these psychiatric disorders (P < .0001). Patients with incident anxiety, depression, or stress reaction/adjustment disorder incurred higher all-cause costs in the first year following breast cancer diagnosis than those with prevalent anxiety, depression, or stress reaction/adjustment disorder (P < .0003), or those without these psychiatric disorders (P < .0001). Discussion: Of patients with anxiety, depression, or stress reaction/adjustment disorder, those with incident psychiatric disorders had higher healthcare costs, suggesting that new-onset psychological distress may contribute to higher costs incurred by the payer. Timely treatment of psychiatric disorders in this population may improve clinical outcomes and reduce HCRU and costs. Conclusions: Anxiety, depression, and stress reaction/adjustment disorder were common among patients newly diagnosed with breast cancer and were associated with increased healthcare costs in the first year following breast cancer diagnosis.
On Spiritual Subjects
Authors: Seedat Fatima
Published: March 2023

This paper applies reading strategies adapted from feminist philosophy to the discursive construction of women as spiritual subjects in a Sufi narrative. The aim of this reading is first, to show the challenge women’s spiritual excellence presents to normative representations which privilege male spirituality, and then to illustrate the ways in which women’s spiritual excellence is negotiated in the text, at times challenging but generally reaffirming patriarchal distinctions between masculinity and femininity. To do this, the paper offers a deep reading of Farīd al-Dīn ‘Aṭṭār’s textualization of Rabī’a al-’Adawiyya using the cosmological gender of Sufi thought and reading methods drawn from feminist philosophy. It reads the male/female duality of ‘Aṭṭār’s text for the assumptions, the imaginaries and metaphoric networks, and the silences that inform the representations of Muslim female spirituality. In ‘Aṭṭār’s construction of a metaphoric spiritual masculinity, we are made to see Rabī’a’s spirituality as an illustration of gender performance. Even though he does not go as far as we might want, ‘Aṭṭār shows us how it is possible to be in the way that men “naturally” are while being embodied as women “naturally” are. In casting a woman as a man Aṭṭār appeals to the subtext of a Sufi cosmology of genders, to metaphors of masculinity and femininity and to ideas of affect and receptivity in order to construct a body such as Rabī’a’s in masculine ways. Thus, he pays homage to Rabī’a’s spiritual agency, and that of other women like her, but does so without relinquishing the spiritual superiority that he associates with the male body. The effect of the analysis is to illustrate the complex and contested representation of female spirituality in Islamic thought, and in doing so to also locate contemporary negotiations of female spiritual agency along an historical trajectory of negotiation.

A Muslim within the South African context can ensure that his or her compulsory estate devolves in terms of the Islamic law of compulsory succession by virtue of executing a will, that includes a clause to this degree. This article looks at a fictitious scenario where a testator (X) executes an Islamic will and leaves behind a son (Y) and a transgender son (Z) (whose birth-assigned sex was female and identifies as male) as his only relatives. This article looks at the right of Z to inherit in terms of the Islamic will.

Authors: Кривов’язюк Ігор
Published: March 2023

У цій статті розкрито вплив цифрової трансформації бізнесу на розвиток е-торгівлі промислових підприємств України. Основною метою дослідження є удосконалення теоретико-методичних засад і розробка практичних рекомендацій, спрямованих на розвиток е-торгівлі підприємств в умовах цифрової трансформації бізнесу. Критичний аналіз літературних джерел та підходів до вирішення проблеми розвитку е-торгівлі свідчить про недостатність уваги вчених сучасності до досліджуваної проблематики. Актуальність вирішення даної проблеми полягає в тому, що в сучасних умовах значення е-торгівлі зростає щоденно, а цифрова трансформація бізнесу покликана сприяти її розвитку. Методологічну основу становить система застосованих для отримання кінцевих результатів дослідження методів: узагальнення – при систематизації наукових досліджень з метою уточнення понятійного апарату; абстрактно-логічний – для удосконалення науково-методичного підходу до дослідження особливостей розвитку е-торгівлі підприємств в умовах цифрової трансформації; економічного аналізу, графічний та табличний – при дослідженні особливостей розвитку е-торгівлі підприємств України; регресійного аналізу – для визначення впливу цифровізації бізнесу на розвиток е-торгівлі; групування – для визначення факторів і причин гальмування розвитку е-торгівлі підприємств. Об’єктом дослідження є розвиток е-торгівлі підприємств в умовах цифрової трансформації бізнесу. У статті представлено результати оцінки вагомості впливу ІКТ на е-торгівлю методом одномірної лінійної регресії, які демонструють, що у разі покращення використання ІКТ промисловими підприємствами України з розрахунку на 0,1 це спричинює ріст частки обсягу реалізації продукції дистанційним способом на 1,820. Розкрито напрямки розвитку е-торгівлі промислових підприємств України в умовах цифрової трансформації бізнесу. Результати дослідження можуть бути корисними для підприємницьких структур, які прагнуть забезпечити розвиток е-торгівлі в сучасних умовах цифрової трансформації бізнесу.
ІНФОРМАЦІЙНО-АНАЛІТИЧНЕ ЗАБЕЗПЕЧЕННЯ ПРИЙНЯТТЯ УПРАВЛІНСЬКИХ РІШЕНЬ У СФЕРІ МАРКЕТИНГУ
Authors: Морохова Валентина  , Бойко Ольга  , Ковальчук Олег
Published: March 2023

У статті розглянуто питання інформаційно-аналітичного забезпечення розробки, підтримки і реалізації маркетингових управлінських рішень. Встановлено, що нестабільність зовнішнього середовища функціонування підприємств вимагає від них прийняття нестандартних управлінських рішень, активізації маркетингових зусиль та індивідуалізації підходів до потреб цільових споживачів. За цих умов інформаційно-аналітичне забезпечення маркетингової діяльності виступає важливим інструментом адаптації підприємств до нестабільної кон’юнктури ринку. Узагальнено дослідження інформаційно-аналітичної складової маркетингової діяльності підприємств, за допомогою якої здійснюється спостереження, збирання та аналізування інформації про внутрішнє і зовнішнє середовище. Наголошено, що інформаційно-аналітичне забезпечення не повинно зводитися лише до акумулювання інформаційних ресурсів. Його метою повинно бути задоволення потреб суб’єктів господарювання в комплексі даних, цілеспрямований збір, обробка, аналіз і використання якісної інформації, здійснення оперативного та стратегічного моніторингу. Представлено і розглянуто спільні завдання та відмінності між маркетинговим аналізом і маркетинговими дослідженнями. Виділено дві основні групи маркетингових управлінських рішень:  рішення у сфері стратегічного маркетингу та рішення у сфері тактичного маркетингу. Для успішного ведення маркетингової діяльності та прийняття ефективних управлінських рішень обґрунтовано необхідність використання сучасних інформаційних технологій та модернізації маркетингової інформаційної системи. Дослідженням доведено, що від якості інформаційно-аналітичного забезпечення маркетингової діяльності залежить ефективність маркетингових управлінських рішень. Недостатній рівень інформаційно-аналітичного забезпечення призводить до труднощів достовірної оцінки маркетингового потенціалу підприємств, що, в свою чергу, стає причиною прийняття необґрунтованих рішень у сфері маркетингу. Визначено шляхи удосконалення інформаційно-аналітичного забезпечення маркетингової складової системи управління підприємством.
Analysis of wave added resistance and motion response of fishing boat sailing against waves
Authors: Wang Jing , Zhou Yu
Published: March 2023

In order to accurately predict the on-wave resistance and responses to hull motions of ships in actual sea conditions, the k-ε method of the RNG model is adopted on the basis of the unsteady RANS method. The twoformula turbulence model deals with the viscous flow, the VOF method captures the free surface, the velocity boundary method makes waves, the artificial damping method is used to eliminate waves, and the nested grid technology is used to deal with the motion response of ships on waves. Combined with the 6-DOF motion formula, a three-dimensional numerical wave cell for regular waves is established. For one example, taking a KCS Container ship and fishing boat sailing at a mid-high-speed, the increase of wave resistance and motion response at different wavelengths are analyzed, and the simulation results are compared with the experimental value, the content of strip theory in potential flow theory and the panel method to prove the reliability of CFD method in predicting ship motion.
Graphological Deviation: A Defamiliarizing Trope in Timothy Wangusa’s Poetry
Authors: Evaristo Arineitwe
Published: March 2023

This article attempts to examine the use of graphological deviation in Timothy Wangusa’s poetry as a style of foregrounding in Timothy Wangusa’s poetry. It is hoped to fill knowledge gaps in the Wangusaic scholarship as previous studies on Wangusa are on issues of originality of his poetry and conclude that the trajectory of his poetry is mainly Christian, African, and English traditions. The studies conclude that Wangusa’s poetry was greatly influenced by classical and western literary traditions (Alfredo Okello 2005). Some studies are on Wangusa’s novels and short stories, and as such, they focus on aspects like themes and narrative techniques but not graphological deviation. This leaves much to be studied on the variable of graphological deviation in Wangusa’s poetry. This justifies why this research article is worthwhile as it evaluates how Timothy Wangusa employs graphological deviation to create foregrounding. Besides, the researcher used the theory of defamiliarisation proposed by Viktor Shyklovsky throughout the study. The theory emphasises the use of poetic devices, which makes it an apt one as this study is on graphological deviation (which is used as a poetic device to achieve emphasis/foregrounding). The researcher used a textual analysis method and a descriptive research design in an attempt to explicate and make sense of the variable of graphological deviation. The results and findings from the data analysis prove that Wangusa uses graphological deviation to emphasise his message, shock or surprise readers (estrangement) and create mood in his poetry. This study recommends that studies be carried out on Timothy Wangusa’s use of deviation of register

Muhammadiyah is a religious organization engaged in the social sphere, the role of Muhammadiyah as a civil society movement that has been widely known through its humanitarian da'wah in various fields through its business charities. At the 5-year grand event, the 47th Muhammadiyah Congress in Makassar in 2015, the Central Executive of Muhammadiyah gave the Muktamar a mandate, one of which was to take steps to internationalize. This internationalization effort is carried out through various programs through business charities in the fields of health, social and education. This study seeks to examine how the internationalization of Muhammadiyah is carried out through the education sector which will focus on the establishment of Universiti Muhammadiyah Antarbangsa Malaysia. By using qualitative research methods and data that can be analyzed, Muhammadiyah's da'wah efforts through Universiti Muhammadiyah Antarbangsa Malaysia are aimed at educating the world's life in order to build world civilization. As a non-governmental organization that operates on a religious basis, Muhammadiyah's internationalization efforts in the education sector are a step for Muhammadiyah to play an active role in the global arena in building world civilization to realize the mission of Islam rahmatan lil'alamin.
Power System Control Centers and Their Role in the Restoration Process after a Major Blackout
Authors: Fotis Georgios , , Pavlatos Christos , Vita Vasiliki
Published: March 2023

Power control centers have evolved since their ground-breaking inception in the 1960s, and they are extremely important for the operation of the power system, ensuring maximum reliability. There has been much discussion about mandating reliability requirements, but for the most part, reliability standards are already in place for electricity grid design and operation. Unfortunately, these standards do not examine in detail monitoring and control, possibly due to the false belief that reliability primarily comes from redundancies in transmission and generation. The grid can operate even more closely to its limits thanks to improved grid control and monitoring, which also increase reliability. In this paper, the significant role of the power system control centers in the event of a major blackout is discussed, proving their significance in the restoration process.
Decoding reappraisal and suppression from neural circuits: A combined supervised and unsupervised machine learning approach
Authors: Ghomroudi Parisa Ahmadi , Scaltritti Michele , Grecucci Alessandro
Published: March 2023

Emotion regulation is a core construct of mental health and deficits in emotion regulation abilities lead to psychological disorders. Reappraisal and suppression are two widely studied emotion regulation strategies but, possibly due to methodological limitations in previous studies, a consistent picture of the neural correlates related to the individual differences in their habitual use remains elusive. To address these issues, the present study applied a combination of unsupervised and supervised machine learning algorithms to the structural MRI scans of 128 individuals. First, unsupervised machine learning was used to separate the brain into naturally grouping grey matter circuits. Then, supervised machine learning was applied to predict individual differences in the use of different strategies of emotion regulation. Two predictive models, including structural brain features and psychological ones, were tested. Results showed that a temporo-parahippocampal-orbitofrontal network successfully predicted the individual differences in the use of reappraisal. Differently, insular and fronto-temporo-cerebellar networks successfully predicted suppression. In both predictive models, anxiety, the opposite strategy, and specific emotional intelligence factors played a role in predicting the use of reappraisal and suppression. This work provides new insights regarding the decoding of individual differences from structural features and other psychologically relevant variables while extending previous observations on the neural bases of emotion regulation strategies.
