Building a Tool for Optimal Test Cases Selection using Artificial Intelligence Techniques
Authors: I. Khaleel Shahbaa , Alghadanfary Raghda Anan
Published: March 2023

Software testing is an important process for detecting errors in programs and reducing the risks of their use. With the rapid expansion of the software industry and the heavy dependence on increasingly popular and frequently used programs, there is a necessary need to use software testing techniques that are efficient, scalable, applicable, and effective in detecting errors. In this research, a tool was built that selects the optimal test cases using artificial intelligence techniques. The crow search algorithm was used to select test cases, and after modifications and improvements were made to the algorithm, the improved crow search algorithm was proposed, which generates and selects test cases that achieve the basic paths of the program, depending on the hybridization between the criterion of close to boundary value and branch coverage in calculating the fitness function, and relying on the crow's awareness probability value. In addition, the genetic algorithm was used for test case prioritization.

Published: March 2023

software-defined networks SDN represents a significant shift in the networking field through the ability to solve problems facing traditional networks, such as updating components for networks and integration between devices. Open-source components and protocols were used in SDN. Among its advantages are the separation of the control plane from the data plane, the use of the OpenFlow protocol, and the transition to Decentralization in network management. In SDN, there are several types of controllers. In this paper, work has been done on  ONOS controllers in cluster mode from one to five controllers, and a comparison between the performance of different numbers of controllers to obtain the best performance through the use of Cbench.

An Examination of Modelling, Simulation and Detection of Fault Behaviours in HVDC Monopolar System
Authors: Ikotun Olumoroti , Shehu Suleiman
Published: March 2023

Purpose: Some previous researchers work on the HVDC Monopolar systems using Matlab/Simulink environment to carry out their analyses. We continue this discussion of Monopolar HVDC systems.

Methodology: The analyses that are carried out include double phase-to-ground fault, single phase-to-ground fault and three phase-to-ground fault at the AC side of the rectifier and the DC line to ground fault. 

Findings: It is discovered, among others, that for three phase-to-ground fault, the voltages at the AC side of the rectifier, the DC line voltage and the voltage at the inverter side of the load are completely zero but that the current in the rectifier will increase from its standard value though will be less harmful and the current of the inverter side will decrease from its original value. It is further discovered that the fastest transient will be the case when fault is applied to the DC transmission system and that transmission network is of critical importance in high voltage transmission lines and engineers can also use this result to identify different faults in the transmission lines and the care of power quality is highly important because of electrical energy demand.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The current in the rectifier decreases from its standard value but will be less harmful. The causes of decrease in DC transmission line depend on severity of the fault such as single phase to ground, double line to ground and three phase-to ground at the rectifier side.

Published: March 2023

This study evaluated the impact of monetary policy efficiency (MPE) and financial market development (FMD) on financial stability using the credit gap as a proxy. New datasets were constructed for the MPE of 63 developing economies from 1990:Q1 to 2021:Q4. The panel homogeneity assumption was verified using the Chow and Roy-Zellner tests, and the findings showed that the model was not homogenous. Thus, the pooled mean group (PMG) estimator was used. The empirical results revealed that MPE and FMD significantly impacted the credit gap. The effects of MPE and FMD on financial stability were as substitutes. Since the sample was divided into two groups: high and low-middle income nations, the conclusion was robust, and the negative connection between the variables remained. In addition, a dynamic panel estimation was also applied, which found significant effects of MPE and FMD on the credit gap.

Published: March 2023

There has been an increasing focus on improving pro-environmental intentions and behaviour. This study has primarily assessed a conceptual model focusing on managers’ intentions and financially responsible behaviour. This study examined the direct influence of; managers’ attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural controls, and religiosity in inducing their intentions to perform pro-environmental practices, leading them to conduct financially responsible behaviour in preserving the environment. This conceptual study employed a quantitative approach and was supported by interviews to understand the findings better. A partial least squares structural equation modelling technique was adopted in analysing and interpreting the data. Data were collected from environmental and financial managers in Public Listed Companies (PLCs) using a survey design questionnaire. Specifically, responses were sought from managers from environmentally sensitive industries. Interviews were conducted to understand managers’ behaviour better. The findings of this study revealed that; subjective norms, pressures, and religiosity positively and significantly influenced managers’ intentions to perform pro-environmental practices. However, these intentions did not lead them to execute financially responsible behaviour in preserving the environment. This study’s findings exposed the need for managers to have business and government support to make preserving the environment mandatory and be financially responsible for preserving the environment.

Published: March 2023

This study assesses the non-performing loans of conventional and Islamic banks as well as the influence of ownership on the non-performing loans of conventional and Islamic
banks. Due to fundamental differences in Islamic and conventional bank such as funding, non-performing loans might have differing effects on Islamic and conventional banks. This study utilised data of 26 conventional banks and 16 Islamic banks from Malaysia from 2012 to 2020. A Random Effect model was used to investigate the difference between conventional and Islamic banks’ non-performing loans as well as the influence of ownership on non-performing loans of conventional and Islamic banks. Results showed no significant differences for non-performing loans of conventional and Islamic banks. This result implies that despite the fact that Islamic banks may benefit from lower agency costs, this does not considerably decrease the likelihood of non-performing loans. Foreign Islamic banks shows higher non-performing loans in comparison to domestic Islamic banks. However, there were no significant differences for non-performing loans between foreign conventional and domestic conventional banks. This study suggests that Islamic bankers, particularly those intending to expand into other countries, investigate nonperforming loans, which can impact the risk of a foreign Islamic bank.

Children away from their parents while pursuing higher education at universities face new challenges in managing their finances and preparing to be financially independent. This study analysed and compared the effects of parental financial socialisation and financial literacy on Indonesian and Malaysian university students' financial behaviour. In total, 204 students from the Faculty of Human Ecology at IPB University and Universiti Putra Malaysia participated in the study. Data were gathered using a self-reporting questionnaire using the convenience sampling method. The independent sample t-test and multiple regression analysis were performed on the data. The results of the t-test showed that Malaysian students scored significantly higher in parental financial socialisation and financial behaviour but lower in financial literacy than Indonesian students. Moreover, the regression analyses revealed that parental financial socialisation and students' financial literacy were highly significant in influencing the sampled students' financial behaviour. However, by splitting the sample based on the student's country of origin, this study demonstrated that Malaysian students' financial behaviour was only significantly influenced by parental financial socialisation, while Indonesian students' financial behaviour was only significantly determined by financial literacy. These findings implied that Malaysian parents were more involved in shaping their children's financial behaviour or decisions. In contrast, Indonesian students were more independent from their parents, and their financial literacy level predominantly influenced their financial behaviour.

This article investigates factors influencing Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) vaccinations and public concerns using association rule mining (ARM). The experiment was conducted in Phuket at the beginning of 2022 when many people were still not vaccinated. The online questionnaire comprises 26 questions with a sample of 403 participants living in Phuket, Thailand. Among the participants, 377 people were vaccinated. The experiment is based on two main ARM methods: Apriori and FP-Growth. The performance assessment criteria were 0.5 and 0.6 minimum support and 0.9 and 1.0 minimum confidence. The most appropriate values are based on 0.5 minimum support and 1.0 minimum confidence with lift > 1. The experimental results reveal factors influencing COVID-19 vaccinations in association rules. For example, most vaccinated people received Sinovac. They are female and knowledgeable about vaccines. They are concerned about severe illness or death and live in the Mueang district more than others. They are also concerned about injection site pain, nausea, vomiting, numbness, and hemiplegia. Enhancing herd immunity is another compelling reason for people to be vaccinated. In the meantime, these derived rules can be reversed to explain why many people are not vaccinated. For instance, the most available vaccine is Sinovac, and several vaccination points are in the Mueang district.

Mutualidad negada. Adolescencia y acogimiento residencial básico en Navarra: realidad y propuestas desde el trabajo social comunitario
Authors:   , Sarasa Camacho Hodei
Published: March 2023

La adolescencia resulta una etapa en la que el apoyo del grupo de pares supone un potencial para el desarrollo psicosocial de las y los menores. Cuando el sistema de protección a la infancia y adolescencia considera que un/a menor está en desamparo, dirige a este/a en un proceso de institucionalización que, en muchas ocasiones, supone el alejamiento para con su grupo de iguales y su contexto originario de interrelación. En esta Tesis Doctoral, se exploran las consecuencias de tal distanciamiento, investigando cómo evoluciona la situación de “aislamiento social” vivenciada durante los meses o años de institucionalización y qué supone para el vínculo afectivo y el potencial protector de la relación con el grupo de pares y la comunidad de origen; se presentan también alternativas para un “hacer” diferente, un “hacer” que genere protección.

Traditionally, hemp is considered a fibrous crop, but the scope of their economic use is constantly expanding, recently increasing demand for seeds as a food product and hemp oil, and in the breeding of intensified direction to increase the oil content in seeds and improve its fatty acid composition. productivity. The article shows that the creation of the source breeding material of industrial hemp with high oil content in seeds can be carried out using different breeding methods – improving selection, self-pollination, synthetic breedingn, different types of hybridization – intervarietal, sortoliniary, linear and interlinear. The oil content of the created breeding material was increased from 19,38–37,50 to 33,14–53,00 %. Success in breeding and obtaining valuable material depends on the successful combination of the source material and the method of breeding.

The aim is to study the quality indicators of fiber from the constituent stems of hemp at different times of stock retting after harvesting seeds with a combine harvester. A brief description of the work performed. It is investigated that in the process of hemp stock after harvesting the seeds of the combine harvester changes the quality of the fiber produced from all components of the stems. It was established that under the meteorological conditions of 2017, the hemp stock of all components of the stems was aged in November with indicators of breaking load of the fiber: for stems at the root – 25,0 – 25,5 daN, in the area of wheels – 23,6 – 27,5 and threshed in a thresher – 21,7 – 21,8 daN, the mass fraction of hemp scutch 0,5 – 0,7 % and paws – 0,6 – 2,2 %. According to the set of indicators, the fiber produced from stems at the root of both broad-row and continuous crops is evaluated by the second grade, as well as stems in the area of action of wheels of continuous sowing, and other options – the third grade. During further retting of hemp stock in the winter, the breaking load of the fiber produced from all components of the stems is reduced, and more significantly for those components that are more in contact with the ground surface (in the area of wheels and threshed in a thresher). It is established that for the period of spring harvesting of hemp stock at conditioned humidity the quality of fiber produced from stems at the root corresponds to the third grade, and for components in the area of action of wheels and threshed in a thresher it is non-standard in terms of breaking load. Conclusions. It is established that the best quality indicators of the produced fiber from all components of hemp stalks correspond to the autumn selection of hemp stock and decrease during the harvesting process in the spring.
Industrial hemp for sustainable development

This article analyzes the potential for growing and processing of industrial hemp in accordance with the goals and objectives of sustainable development. Of the 17 sustainable development goals, they meet at least nine. Today it is a niche crop grown by small agricultural enterprises, and the organization on their basis of simple value chains for processing seeds and stems allows to diversify crop production, create new jobs and appropriate economic development of rural areas. The total costs for growing and processing hemp raw materials from 100 hectares of crops directly in the agricultural enterprise amount to UAH 5,7 million, and the income from the products produced by a simple value chain will amount to UAH 12,9 million. Industrial hemp seeds and products made from it are a valuable source of omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the optimal combination, so they serve as a basis for the development of the food industry for both regional and international markets. It is appropriate to involve the high nutritional potential of hemp seeds in the organization of a balanced diet, including children of different ages. The cannabinoid system of industrial hemp has a therapeutic and prophylactic effect on the human body, so the world community is actively involved in the raw materials of industrial hemp in the manufacture of biologically active additives and drugs. The development of this area in Ukraine requires appropriate changes in legislation. A hectare of industrial hemp is capable of forming more than 12 tons of dry biomass, containing up to 80 % of cellulose suitable for the production of various types of paper. The use of hemp in this direction contributes to the preservation of forests and is an effective measure to combat climate change and its consequences. Hemp is a traditional agricultural crop in Ukraine, the cultivation of which contributes to the conservation of biodiversity and agrobiocenoses. Their cultivation has a minimal environmental impact on the environment, and the processing of raw materials is characterized by waste-free production.
