Authors: Tubis Agnieszka A. , Werbińska-Wojciechowska Sylwia , Góralczyk Mateusz , Wróblewski Adam , Ziętek Bartłomiej
Published: December 2020

The rising automation level and development of the Industry 4.0 concept in the mining sector increase the risk of cyber-attacks. As a result, this article focuses on developing a risk analysis method that integrates Kaplan’s and Garrick’s approach and fuzzy theory. The proposed approach takes into account the level of automation of the operating mining processes. Moreover, it follows five main steps, including identifying the automation level in a selected mine, definition of cyber-attack targets, identification of cyber-attack techniques, definition of cyber-attack consequences, and risk ratio assessment. The proposed risk assessment procedure was performed according to three cyber-attack targets (databases, internal networks, machinery) and seven selected types of cyber-attack techniques. The fuzzy theory is implemented in risk parameter estimation for cyber-attack scenario occurrence in the mining industry. To illustrate the given method’s applicability, seven scenarios for three levels of mine automation are analyzed. The proposed method may be used to reveal the current cybersecurity status of the mine. Moreover, it will be a valuable guide for mines in which automation is planned in the near future.
Time Series Forecasting and Classification Models Based on Recurrent with Attention Mechanism and Generative Adversarial Networks
Authors: Zhou Kun , Wang Wenyong , Hu Teng , Deng Kai
Published: December 2020

Time series classification and forecasting have long been studied with the traditional statistical methods. Recently, deep learning achieved remarkable successes in areas such as image, text, video, audio processing, etc. However, research studies conducted with deep neural networks in these fields are not abundant. Therefore, in this paper, we aim to propose and evaluate several state-of-the-art neural network models in these fields. We first review the basics of representative models, namely long short-term memory and its variants, the temporal convolutional network and the generative adversarial network. Then, long short-term memory with autoencoder and attention-based models, the temporal convolutional network and the generative adversarial model are proposed and applied to time series classification and forecasting. Gaussian sliding window weights are proposed to speed the training process up. Finally, the performances of the proposed methods are assessed using five optimizers and loss functions with the public benchmark datasets, and comparisons between the proposed temporal convolutional network and several classical models are conducted. Experiments show the proposed models’ effectiveness and confirm that the temporal convolutional network is superior to long short-term memory models in sequence modeling. We conclude that the proposed temporal convolutional network reduces time consumption to around 80% compared to others while retaining the same accuracy. The unstable training process for generative adversarial network is circumvented by tuning hyperparameters and carefully choosing the appropriate optimizer of “Adam”. The proposed generative adversarial network also achieves comparable forecasting accuracy with traditional methods.
The Export of Ecological Civilization: Reflections from Law and Economics and Law and Development
Authors: Faure Michael
Published: December 2020

This paper uses the concept of ecological civilization (EC) that has been developed within China and is now promoted within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The paper critically examines the suitability of China’s environmental law as an export product and uses the law and economics literature to formulate some critical observations with respect to the suitability of Chinese environmental law as an export product. Law and economics are also used to analyze the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) literature, arguing that the reduction of environmental pollution will only occur with an increase in regulatory and institutional structures. Then, the law and development literature is employed to critically analyze the so-called legal transplants phenomenon, whereby particular legal rules from a donor country are transplanted to a host country. That literature argues that transplants may lead to rejection if they are not demand-driven and do not take into account local needs. The paper therefore concludes with some implications for the idea of transplanting the concept of EC along the BRI.
A Citywide Location-Allocation Framework for Driver Feedback Signs: Optimizing Safety and Coverage of Vulnerable Road Users
Authors: Wu Mingjian , Kwon Tae J. , El-Basyouny Karim
Published: December 2020

Driver feedback signs (DFSs) are being adopted increasingly by municipalities around the world, as they have been proven to be a cost-effective countermeasure that improves road safety. However, research is still needed on developing a location-allocation framework to determine the optimal implementation strategies for DFS placement. Hence, the main aim of this paper is to formulate a location-allocation optimization problem with the objective of reducing vehicular collisions (ΔC) while enhancing spatial coverage for vulnerable road users and facilities (Cov). Two distinct planning scenarios, namely, an all-new and expansion scenario, were proposed in the framework. It was found that ΔC and Cov can be improved by up to 149.44% and 69.27%, respectively, in the all-new scenario. Two expansion scenarios were done with 10 and 20 additional units into the system. It was found that ΔC can be improved by up to 30.22% and 51.61% for the additional 10 and 20 DFSs, respectively. Likewise, the Cov can be improved by up to 14.64% and 29.27%, respectively. This framework provides decision makers with the freedom to simulate and optimize their DFS network by balancing the needs of the road users, vulnerable facilities, and traffic safety in locating DFSs over an urban road network.

The ability of aquatic organisms to sense the surrounding environment chemically and interpret such signals correctly is crucial for their ecological niche and survival. Although it is an oversimplification of the ecological interactions, we could consider that a significant part of the decisions taken by organisms are, to some extent, chemically driven. Accordingly, chemical contamination might interfere in the way organisms behave and interact with the environment. Just as any environmental factor, contamination can make a habitat less attractive or even unsuitable to accommodate life, conditioning to some degree the decision of organisms to stay in, or move from, an ecosystem. If we consider that contamination is not always spatially homogeneous and that many organisms can avoid it, the ability of contaminants to repel organisms should also be of concern. Thus, in this critical review, we have discussed the dual role of contamination: toxicity (disruption of the physiological and behavioral homeostasis) vs. repellency (contamination-driven changes in spatial distribution/habitat selection). The discussion is centered on methodologies (forced exposure against non-forced multi-compartmented exposure systems) and conceptual improvements (individual stress due to the toxic effects caused by a continuous exposure against contamination-driven spatial distribution). Finally, we propose an approach in which Stress and Landscape Ecology could be integrated with each other to improve our understanding of the threat contaminants represent to aquatic ecosystems.

We previously reported that topical imiquimod can improve the immunogenicity of the influenza vaccine. This study investigated another FDA-approved drug, miltefosine (MTF), as a vaccine adjuvant. Mice immunized with an influenza vaccine with or without MTF adjuvant were challenged by a lethal dose of influenza virus 3 or 7 days after vaccination. Survival, body weight, antibody response, histopathological changes, viral loads, cytokine levels, and T cell frequencies were compared. The MTF-adjuvanted vaccine (MTF-VAC) group had a significantly better survival rate than the vaccine-only (VAC) group, when administered 3 days (80% vs. 26.7%, p = 0.0063) or 7 days (96% vs. 65%, p = 0.0041) before influenza virus challenge. Lung damage was significantly ameliorated in the MTF-VAC group. Antibody response was significantly augmented in the MTF-VAC group against both homologous and heterologous influenza strains. There was a greater T follicular helper cell (TFH) response and an enhanced germinal center (GC) reaction in the MTF-VAC group. MTF-VAC also induced both TH1 and TH2 antigen-specific cytokine responses. MTF improved the efficacy of the influenza vaccine against homologous and heterologous viruses by improving the TFH and antibody responses. Miltefosine may also be used for other vaccines, including the upcoming vaccines for COVID-19.
Effect of Animal Welfare on the Reproductive Performance of Extensive Pasture-Based Beef Cows in New Zealand
Authors: Kaurivi Yolande Baby , Laven Richard , Parkinson Tim , Hickson Rebecca , Stafford Kevin
Published: December 2020

One key area where animal welfare may relate to productivity is through reproductive performance. This study assesses welfare on 25 extensively managed pastoral New Zealand beef farms, and explores the relationship between welfare and reproductive performance. Relationships between welfare measures and key reproductive performance indicators (pregnancy rate, weaning rate, mating period and bull: cow ratio) are investigated using an exploratory principal components analysis and linear regression model. Seven welfare measures (thinness, poor rumen fill, dirtiness, blindness, mortality, health checks of pregnant cows and yarding frequency/year) showed a potential influence on reproductive performance, and lameness was retained individually as a potential measure. Mean pregnancy rates, in both 2018 (PD18) and 2017 (PD17), were ~91% and mean weaning rate was 84%. Of the welfare measures, only lameness had a direct association with pregnancy rate, as well as a confounding effect on the association between mating period and pregnancy rate. The bull: cow ration (mean 1:31) and reproductive conditions (dystocia, abortion, vaginal prolapse) did not influence pregnancy and weaning rates. In the study population, there was no clear association between welfare and reproductive performance, except for the confounding effects of lameness.
FEATURES OF CULTURAL CREATION AS DOMINANTS OF HUMANITARIAN INTEGRITY OF UKRAINIAN CULTURE
Authors: Chornyi Roman
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the definition of stylistic guidelines of cultural creation as a dominant of the humanitarian integrity of Ukrainian culture. Ukrainian Baroque is defined as the creative epicentre of cultural creativity of the twentieth century. Ukrainian culture has always faced the choice of solving the cultural situation and way of life, which appeals to the individual, who in turn is the bearer of responsibility, the bearer of humanitarian security, the opportunity to be and not to be, to carry and not to carry the world. Ukrainian history has shown all these possibilities. Worldview matrices, possibilities of typological comprehension of cultural creativity as an ecosystem, due to which the integrity of man as the unity of man and nature, man and culture, man and absolute, tradition and creativity are formed, are analyzed.

Authors: Fortes Ronaldo Vielmi
Published: December 2020

Tradução de artigo do jovem Engels em comemoração ao bicentenário de seu nascimento. O artigo ora traduzido marca o início da colaboração de Engels com o jornal The New Moral World. O periódico foi um dos primeiros jornais socialistas do Reino Unido. A publicação foi lançada por Robert Owen em novembro de 1834 como sucessora do jornal Crisis. Foi publicado em dois números da revista, nr. 19 de 04 de novembro de 1843 e nr 21 de 18 de novembro de 1843. No texto Engels esboça uma descrição dos principais movimentos socialistas de sua época, aborda as principais correntes do movimento na França, na Alemanha e na Suiça. A intervenção de Engels aponta para a necessidade da integração do movimento socialista no continente, para tanto, conhecer suas variantes nos países industrializados torna-se essencial para somar forças em vistas da transformação social. O artigo testemunha os passos iniciais do jovem pensador no interior do pensamento propriamente comunista, em clara ruptura com o ideário democrático burguês e com o pensamento político dos neohegelianos.

Manejo del Síndrome de Arteria Mesentérica Superior
Authors: Salas Salas Esteban , Jiménez Trigueros José Pablo
Published: December 2020

El síndrome de arteria mesentérica superior o también llamado síndrome de Wilkie, consiste en un diagnóstico de exclusión, una condición que causa un cuadro de obstrucción intestinal alta de forma crónica usualmente debido a un acortamiento del ángulo aorto mesentérico y la distancia aortomesentérica. Su clínica se basa en vómitos postprandiales, llenura postprandial, pérdida de peso y suele acompañarse de condiciones adicionales que causan un franco adelgazamiento del paciente. Su valoración y manejo es multidisciplinario e involucra múltiples especialidades médicas y quirúrgicas. El manejo inicial es médico y nutricional y se basa en lograr un claro aumento de peso, sin embargo, muchas veces es fallido y el paciente requiere de cirugía. Cuando esto sucede la técnica ideal con menos morbilidad asociada y mayor resolución de sintomatología consiste en la duodeno yeyunostomía laparoscópica.
Intususcepción intestinal en la población pediátrica vs. población adulta
Authors: Hidalgo Mora Oscar Felipe , Martínez Daly Iraís Marina
Published: December 2020

La intususcepción intestinal se define como la invaginación de un segmento del intestino en un segmento inmediatamente adyacente. Su forma más frecuente en la población pediátrica es la intususcepción idiopática de tipo ileocólica, la cual es considerada una de las urgencias abdominales más frecuentes.  Ésta es tratada de manera general por medio de una reducción no quirúrgica, tal como un enema neumático y/o hidrostático. En la población adulta, por su parte, la presencia de intususcepción es poco común y ocurre con mayor frecuencia en el intestino delgado que en el colon. En la mayoría de los casos en esta población, la intususcepción se asocia con un punto pivote patológico que provoca la presencia de síntomas de obstrucción intestinal. Generalmente, la invaginación a nivel de intestino delgado tiene una etiología benigna, aunque cuando es maligna se asocia con mayor frecuencia a una enfermedad metastásica difusa. Por el contrario, la etiología maligna en la invaginación intestinal de tipo ileocólica y colónica se encuentra con mayor frecuencia asociada a un adenocarcinoma primario. De manera general, su diagnóstico se realiza de forma intraoperatoria o mediante imágenes transversales, tales como TAC o RMN del abdomen, permitiendo diagnosticar más fácilmente las intususcepciones asintomáticas y/o transitorias, las cuales pueden observarse adecuadamente sin ninguna intervención. Por su parte, en los casos que este justificada la intervención quirúrgica en la población adulta, se realiza una resección intestinal de tipo oncológico, esto debido a la frecuente asociación con malignidad de la intususcepción en dicho grupo de edad.

Pavement has become important to people mobility in Indonesia, especially in urban areas. Vehicle mobilization will experience less obstacles if the road pavement conditions are in good quality. At the moment, additives, fillers or road material substitutes are quite expensive and are limited, therefore, research needs to be carried out to find materials which can improve the quality of pavement such as increasing its resistance or stability and flow. The purpose of this study was to analyze the benefits of using wall fragments as the fillers in asphalt concrete wearing course. The effect of using wall fragments as a substitute for rock ash on the value of Marshall parameters is studied, as well as the various levels of wall fragments addition that can produce the greatest stability. In this study, four levels of wall fragments were used as fillers: 0%, 25%, 50% and 100%. Based on the results analysis, it was concluded that the use of wall fragments as fillers in asphalt concrete can increase the following parameters: VMA, VIM, stability, and flow, but it reduces the VFB value. In addition, the use of 25% levels of wall fragments in asphalt concrete produces the greatest stability value, which is 1622.47 kg.

The performance of flexible pavement is highly influenced by the quality of subgrade material. In Palembang, the foundation soil is usually consisted of clay which is sensitive to change in water content caused by rainfall as well as inundation. This paper presents results of laboratory study on the effect of adding sand to clay to be used as subgrade material for urban roads.  California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values were used as indication of strength improvement of the subgrade in unsoaked and soaked conditions. The suitability of the stabilized soil for use as subgrade of pavement construction in response to normal and inundated conditions was further assessed through field verification using Dynamic Cone Penetrometer. Results of both laboratory and field studies indicated that addition of 21% sand by dry weight give the most improvement in terms of CBR value. In this case, the CBR unsoaked increased from 8% to 18% while the CBR soaked increased from less than 3% to 8%. Field verification showed that the CBR of compacted natural soil decreased from 8% to 2% after rainfall while the CBR of the sand stabilized soil decreased from 17% to 8%. Thus the sand stabilized clay is expected to perform adequately even after subjected to rainfall and inundation.

Influencia del protocolo de control de transmisión (TCP) en el comportamiento autosimilar del tráfico en redes convergentes
Authors:   , Arias Emanuel Adrián
Published: December 2020

El trabajo aborda la problemática que presentan los modelos estocásticos clásicos debido al comportamiento autosimilar del tráfico existente en las redes convergentes. Las actividades realizadas buscan determinar la influencia de TCP en mencionado comportamiento. El desarrollo presenta un análisis teórico y práctico detallado de la conducta estocástica del tráfico frente a escenarios de red estresada y relajada. En particular, se propone tomar muestras de tráfico TCP y observar si existe relación entre el mecanismo de control de congestión de dicho protocolo con el grado de autosimilitud presente en el tráfico de una red convergente. En ambos casos, red sin congestión y estresada, se iniciará el estudio a través de una simulación en un ambiente controlado y se contrastarán los resultados con muestras obtenidas de una red de datos operativa, concluyendo con una respuesta al objetivo planteado. Esta tesis tiene como fin poder contribuir al proceso de investigación aportando conocimiento y evidencia que contribuyan a la creación de modelos más acertados, entendiendo que los avances tecnológicos implican cambios y dinamismo en los modelos científicos que representan un fenómeno determinado.
Mentoring First-Time Managers: Proven Strategies HR Leaders can Use
Authors: Gentry William , Walsh Richard
Published: December 2020

"When individual contributors or professionals are promoted into their first formal leadership position, many do not realize how tough that transition can be for them. We often hear that these leaders are not prepared, and lack the support and development to help make that transition successfully. When they are not supported, they suffer, and so too do their teams, the organization, and the HR leadership pipeline, which ultimately can negatively impact the organization’s bottom line. First-time managers are an important part of an organization’s talent and succession management. In turn, organizations may attempt to help first-time managers make the transition into leadership easier by implementing a formal mentoring program. This white paper supports this effort by: • Explaining the benefits a mentoring program can provide for first-time managers and their mentor. • Providing organizations a way to strengthen their own mentoring programs. • Offering HR leaders specific steps to follow and best practices applied in starting and maintaining a successful formal mentoring program specifically aimed at first-time managers. Formal mentoring programs are useful to support and develop first-time managers, an important leadership population that is vital for strengthening your leadership pipeline and succession management efforts. Armed with the knowledge from this white paper, we believe you will be able to gain a competitive advantage".

" From the Executive Summary: ""The purpose of the World Leadership Survey (WLS) is to provide a window into how professionals, managers, and executives view their life within the organization. This view of the employee experience will help leaders of organizations understand what employees experience, and what the organization can do to improve commitment and reduce turnover. The good news for organizations in the United States and Canada (the sample for this report) is that respondents are mostly committed to their organizations, satisfied with their jobs and their pay, work more than the typical 40-hour workweek, and do not currently intend to leave their jobs. The professionals, managers, and executives surveyed feel supported by their organization and by their direct supervisor, and think that their organizations are economically stable. Unfortunately they also feel overloaded, with their work disproportionately interfering with the rest of life, and that there is a high level of political behavior within their organization. Both overload and overt political behavior can reduce individual and organizational effectiveness. This report describes the current employee experience, and what organizations can focus on to maintain and improve commitment and engagement."

"When you ask chief learning officers to list their biggest challenges, “developing next-generation leaders” almost always shows up in the Top 3. The need for a strong cadre of next-generation leaders is further accentuated in India because of hectic economic activity in recent years — activity that has presented large and diverse yet complex business opportunities. The next-generation leader therefore becomes a critical link, not only to fulfill local and global aspirations of Indian companies, but also to help global organizations better understand the Indian market opportunity."

Work performance is important in determining the quality and reputation of an organization. A more strategic performance measurement system will assist management in translating organizational strategies into action plans to be more advanced and competitive in achieving vision and mission. In addition, there are various factors that can influence the improvement of individual job performance and one of them is the factor of training transfer that can improve job performance among civil servants in Malaysia. This is because the training transfer is a continuation application of the knowledge and skills acquired during training to be practiced in the workplace. Training transfer occurs if the employee continuously practices all that knowledge received and learned while undergoing training to improve performance in the workplace. In general, this study proves that the transfer of positive training will have a positive impact on the strategic work performance of an individual in the organization. This article is suitable for reference in the field of human resource management and organizational psychology.

This study was carried out to measure terrorism effects on components of tourism businesses (hotels) in northeastern Nigeria using Boko Haram as a case study. Secondary data on nature, date, and the number of fatalities from the Boko Haram attack was sourced from the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data (ACLED). Data on tourism businesses including hotel room occupancy rate, revenue profile, and employees’ profile was sourced from each state tourism development board. A total of 558 hotels were selected in a one-stage cluster sampling technique. The study adopts a longitudinal research design where inferential statistics was performed with the use of SPSS. Results revealed that Boko Haram attacks had significant effects on tourism businesses contributing to the decline in the number of hotel employees, revenue, and room occupancy rate of hotels in the region. The study, therefore, recommends intense media promotion of the areas and States not majorly affected by the crisis, rebuilding of areas and States recovered from the group, provisions of more resilient security apparatus, and general development of social, educational, and economic infrastructures to help revamp the socioeconomic life of the area.
Estallido social octubre-19: ¿Es el golpe que causará el knockout a la compañía Ad Retail?
Authors: Sánchez Francisco , Torres Juan Pablo
Published: December 2020

Este caso relata la crisis financiera de AD Retail, un holding que operaba en el sector del retail chileno. El holding AD Retail ha mostrado un deterioro en sus indicadores financieros desde finales del 2015, pero la situación se agudizó entre el 2017 y el 2018. Las consecuencias del estallido social que se detonó en octubre del 2019 en Chile intensificaron los problemas financieros de la compañía. El estallido social afectó los márgenes de la empresa y generó menores niveles de recaudación, lo que se tradujo en una liquidez insuficiente para cumplir con sus obligaciones de pago. Esto llevó al Directorio, el 24 de diciembre del 2019, a tomar la decisión de someterse de forma voluntaria a la ley de quiebras e iniciar una reestructuración de sus pasivos y activos, lo que permitiera la viabilidad de la compañía. Tras esta decisión, Pablo Turner, presidente del Directorio de AD Retail, percibía que acogerse a la ley de quiebras cambiaría el plan estratégico 2020-2022 que había sido aprobado en septiembre del 2019 y cuyo objetivo era volver a tener utilidades en el 2020. En particular, Turner se preguntaba, ¿por qué Dijon no había generado el valor corporativo esperado tras su adquisición en el 2013?, ¿por qué el holding no pudo hacer frente a los efectos causados por el estallido social?, ¿era el plan estratégico 2020-2022 acorde a la situación que estaba atravesando la compañía?, ¿qué alternativas tenía AD Retail para salir de la crisis financiera? Aunque su mayor preocupación era si el estallido social se extendería durante el 2020 y sus posibles consecuencias para la economía chilena, lo que llevó a preguntarse a Turner: ¿es la hora del cierre definitivo de AD Retail?.
A GÊNESE E A DINÂMICA RURAL-URBANA DE SANTA CRUZ DO RIO PARDO - SP: 1870 – 1950
Authors: Ferreira Dias Franciele Miranda
Published: December 2020

O objetivo do trabalho é apresentar a gênese de Santa Cruz do Rio Pardo, cidade localizada na região Centro-Oeste paulista, a qual foi “boca do sertão” (MONBEIG, 1984), sendo elemento importante, juntamente com o papel da ferrovia e da expansão cafeeira, para a compreensão do processo de criação desse núcleo urbano. A dinâmica rural - urbana é discutida no contexto da gênese desse município, considerando o período entre 1870 (criação do município) e 1950, quando o café perdeu importância na economia municipal bem como intensificou-se o processo de urbanização e a dinâmica rural-urbana se alterou. Para a realização do trabalho, quanto à compreensão da gênese da cidade, consultou-se a bibliografia relativa à história de Santa Cruz do Rio Pardo bem como dados censitários, com o intuito principalmente, de analisar a dinâmica-rural urbana, durante o período citado. Foi realizado um levantamento de campo em junho de 2018, com o objetivo de coletar informações acerca dos aspectos históricos e da dinâmica rural-urbana, não esclarecidos pela bibliografia consultada. Compreendeu-se que, embora a origem de Santa Cruz do Rio Pardo seja anterior à expansão cafeeira e a inserção da ferrovia, o desenvolvimento do município está atrelado aos dois elementos citados, importantes na dinâmica rural-urbana.
Problems of interaction between police village constables and magistrates as a form of reflection of the essence of bourgeois reforms of the second half of the 19th century in Russia
Authors: Akhmedov Chingiz
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the insufficiently studied problem of interaction between the institutions of the magistrate’s court and police officials in the second half of the 19th century. The powers of a magistrate, as a representative of the judiciary, enshrined in the Charter of Criminal Proceedings, the Charter on Punishments Imposed by Justices of the Peace, were not limited to considering the case and bringing the guilty persons to justice, but made it possible to issue warnings to police officials. The procedural status of a police village constable was regulated by the charter of criminal proceedings and departmental regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Having consistently studied literary sources and archival materials, the author comes to the conclusion that procedural powers have found their application in the activities of police village constables. However, the lack of professional training and sufficient knowledge of regulatory legal acts became an obstacle in the implementation of the procedural powers of a police village constable. For the admission of violations of the fulfillment of the assigned duties when drawing up procedural acts against the guilty persons, the justices of the peace issued warnings to the police officials and reported this to the prosecutor. A commission created with the participation of representatives of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the second and the third sections of His Imperial Majesty’s Own Chancery to discuss the issue «On the abolition of the right granted to the magistrate courts by article 53 of the charter of criminal proceedings of the right to issue warnings to police officers» considered the powers of the magistrate court to prosecute police officials.
