Biography
Authors: Swindells Drew K
Published: April 2023

I am Drew K Swindells, 70 years old and I live in Buckinghamshire in the UK. I’ve been writing poetry for around three years when my girlfriend at the time got me interested.

Since then I’ve developed my voice and write mainly about mental health, love, and love lost. I was diagnosed with bipolar affective disorder a long time ago and draw on my experiences and feelings. I use a pen name sometimes ‘the manic poet’ and I also introduce the semi colon into my work (it’s a mental health symbol meaning survival), also ‘gold and silver’ makes some appearances. Through poetry I can express difficult thoughts and feelings.
#80tiros: como contar a violência?
Authors: Hermann Victor
Published: April 2023

O presente ensaio visa contribuir aos estudos sobre os processos de percepção social da violência no Brasil, com ênfase nas redes sociais. Como recorte, elegemos a repercussão no Instagram e Twitter do assassinato de Evaldo Rosa e Luciano Macedo pelo Exército em 2019, no Rio de Janeiro – episódio que ficou marcado pela hashtag #80tiros. Vamos analisar os argumentos mais recorrentes, seus fundamentos sociológicos e limitações interpretativas, bem como a influência da infraestrutura algorítmica na sua construção. Nossa hipótese é de que a fala mítica dificultou a percepção da zona cinza formada com o avanço das necropolíticas de Estado contra setores da classe batalhadora.
Ainda quando
Authors: Machala Luísa
Published: April 2023

“Ainda quando" é uma videoperformance que se propõe  pensar a desobediência civil como um ato diário de existência dos corpos pretos. Reunindo quatro pessoas artistas da performance e da dança, com direção de Luísa Machala e trilha sonora de Fellipe Miranda, o trabalho compreende a desobediência como condição do corpo e, portanto, a sua revelação estaria nas mais sutis situações cotidianas. Não é preciso muito para abalar os abismos estruturais da sociedade racista em que vivemos. Em uma mistura de cansaço e persistência, o corpo preto segue, o corpo preto cria, o corpo movimenta-se, acima de tudo, move paradigmas. No processo criativo, decide-se por trazer para o roteiro as nuances entre pessoa e artista, obra e processo, ancestralidade e contemporaneidade, fragilidade e permanência. Cada pessoa artista criou seu trajeto-cena nos arredores de suas casas e, como estímulo criativo, foram convidadas a pensarem suas atividades cotidianas, suas relações com aquele espaço e como seus trabalhos autorais poderiam ser pensados nesse contexto: reunir, em queda, o artista, a obra, a pessoa que acorda cedo e dorme tarde para trabalhar, que pega o ônibus, que gripa, que atrasa, que se vira para continuar a caminhada.
Sinopse: Ainda quando, a andança persiste. O corpo vagueia com a coragem que a carne carrega para além de sua própria história. Na tentativa de curar abismos, Rodrigo escuta seus ancestrais no Largo do Rosário; Flavi, em risco, tempera fluxos; Eli cria mundos possíveis em seu rosto e André constrói um jeito de seguir. Num desafogo, sem nem ver, a desobediência aparece como condição do corpo, como único modo de existir.
Civil disobedience
Authors: Lima Bárbara Nascimento de
Published: April 2023

Adopting a genealogical methodology, this paper aims to unveil the historical intricacies of civil disobedience’s many conceptualizations, particularly the ones related to the Thoureaivian concept and the liberal model of civil disobedience. As suggested by Hanson, there has been a long process of selective appropriation of Thoreau’s Resistance to civil government - later republished as Civil disobedience - that goes from the editors until Gandhi. By the same token, there has been a second process, not of selective appropriation per se, but of colonization in which the authors of the liberal model of civil disobedience imposes a series of theoretical constraints in the form of constitutive elements that ought to be fulfilled in order for a political movement to be considered a legitimate case of civil disobedience. This has resulted in civil disobedients being required to recognize the legitimacy of legal and political systems and to demand changes only within the boundaries of the rule of law. Conversely, we suggest a different – and radical – approach to civil disobedience, one that acknowledges that civil disobedience’s conceptualization should be practical-base, i.e., determined from real political actions and not necessarily centered on legal foundations or normative status.

Heart Failure (HF) is a cardiovascular condition with high morbidity and mortality that conditions one of the most critical problems in public health. Despite advances in recent decades, patients continue to have major cardiovascular events and marked reduction in their quality of life. Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Type 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2 Inhibitors) initially entered the market to treat hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), however the discovery of the cardiovascular benefits in patients with HF, regardless of the presence or absence of T2DM positioned it as a new pillar in clinical management. In this state-of-the-art review resulting from a comprehensive literature search (Medline, Cochrane and EMBASE), we describe the impact of SGLT2 Inhibitors on mortality and rehospitalizations in patients with HF and we propose a therapeutic plan for patients with HF to maximizes the benefits.

Authors: QAZI GA , MAQSOOD I , ANWAAR F
Published: April 2023

The retrospective study was conducted in the Peadiatrics Department of Nishter Medical Hospital & CH & ICH Multan from January 2010 to January 2020 to evaluate major morbidity and survival rate in extremely preterm infants. A total of 9095 infants were included in the study. The study participants were divided into 2 groups. Group I included infants who survived for less than 1 day, and Group II included infants who survived for more than 1 day. Detailed information regarding infant and maternal characteristics, birth certificates, prenatal care, antenatal conditions, death records, and all maternal and infant record from a year before to a year after birth was derived from the database of the hospital. Results show that infants born at 22-24 weeks had neonatal morbidities, including retinopathy of prematurity, sepsis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis, periventricular leukomalacia or grade III or IV IVH (Table I). 9% (818 infants) of survivors had grade III or IV intraventricular hemorrhage, and 3% (273 infants) had PVL, infants born at 22nd to 23rd weeks were at higher risk of developing these complications. Almost 80% of infants born at 22-25 weeks gestation suffered from at least one major morbidity. The 1-year survival rate of infants born at 22, 23, and 24 weeks was 5.9%, 27%, and 59.9%, respectively. It is concluded that less than half of the infants born at the lowest gestational ages (22 and 23 weeks) survive after resuscitation, and two-thirds have more than 1 major morbidity.

The Role of External Fixation in the Management of Upper Extremity Fractures
Authors: Moses Michael J. , Tejwani Nirmal C.
Published: April 2023

External fixation is a powerful tool in the armamentarium of the active orthopaedic surgeon. The upper extremity, however, poses unique challenges in the techniques of external fixation because of the smaller soft-tissue envelope and the proximity of neurovascular structures, which may be entrapped in fracture fragments or traversing in line with pin trajectories. This review article summarizes the indications, techniques, clinical outcomes, and complications of external fixation of the upper extremity in the setting of proximal humerus, humeral shaft, distal humerus, elbow, forearm, and distal radius fractures.
Intramedullary Threaded Nail Fixation Versus Plate and Screw Construct in Metacarpal Neck Fractures: A Biomechanical Study
Authors: Wallace Doyle R. , Shiver A. Luke , Pulliam Steven K. , Byrd Bruce M. , McGee-Lawrence Meghan E. , Snoddy Mark C.
Published: April 2023

Background:

Indicated surgical management of metacarpal neck fractures varies with techniques, including Kirschner wire fixation, plate fixation, intramedullary fixation, and headless compression screw fixation, without demonstrated superiority. This study compares intramedullary threaded nail (ITN) fixation with a locking plate construct.

Methods:

Index through small finger metacarpals were harvested from 10 embalmed cadavers. After application of appropriate exclusion criteria, remaining metacarpals underwent neck fracture creation by a three-point load to failure. Eight samples were randomly allocated to fixation with ITN fixation, and six were stabilized with a 2.3-mm seven-hole locking plate. Samples were then subjected to a second round of biomechanical testing using the same apparatus. Ultimate load between the intact tissue and the subsequently stabilized fracture was analyzed with a paired Student t-test. Percentage change in ultimate load in the intact tissue and stabilized tissue was calculated, and the magnitude of relative difference between the two groups was analyzed using unpaired Student t-tests. Statistical difference was defined by a P value of < 0.05.

Results:

Both groups demonstrated the ability to handle a biomechanical load; however, both were significantly weaker than the intact tissue (paired Student t-test p ITN-fixed versus p ITN-intact = 0.006; p plate-fixed versus p plate-intact = 0.002). ITN samples demonstrated a higher load to failure (unpaired Student t-test p ITN-fixed versus p plate-fixed = 0.039).

Conclusion:

ITN provides a biomechanically stronger fixation constructed for vertically oriented metacarpal neck fractures compared with locking plate fixation. Both ITN and locking plate constructs provide stabilization capable of tolerating a biomechanical load; however, both fixation modalities are weaker than the native tissue.

A fisiopatologia da COVID-19 é complexa e ainda não totalmente elucidada, sobretudo no que se refere aos mecanismos de resistência ao vírus, os quais não estão totalmente esclarecidos. Diante disso, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi pesquisar casos de portadores assintomáticos da COVID-19 e analisar se existe correlação com o sistema ABO e Rh. Para isso, voluntários foram recrutados por conveniência por meio de convites divulgados em mídias digitais. Como critério de inclusão, estabeleceu-se nunca ter sido diagnosticado ou vacinado para COVID-19, não ter tido sintomas gripais sugestivos da doença nos últimos 6 meses. Das 83 amostras analisadas, 12,04% (n=10) foram reagentes para IgG anti-SARS-CoV-2, e, portanto, foram considerados como casos assintomáticos de COVID. Não foi identificada significância estatística para a presença de IgG em relação aos tipos sanguíneos considerando apenas os antígenos do sistema ABO (p>0,05). Foi observada diferença estatisticamente significativa apenas nos indivíduos A- em relação aos demais tipos sanguíneos (A+, B+, AB+, O+ e O-) (p<0,05). Sugerindo que os indivíduos A- têm mais chances de serem casos assintomáticos de COVID-19. Não foi verificado correlação estatística entre variáveis como IMC, tabagismo, doenças crônicas e desenvolvimento ou susceptibilidade a COVID-19. Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que o sangue A- parece estar associado ao desenvolvimento de casos assintomáticos, contudo é importante levar em conta que outros alelos, além dos que codificam os antígenos ABO e Rh, podem estar envolvidos na resistência e susceptibilidade a doenças, como os do complexo principal de histocompatibilidade humana.

Hypolipidemic effect of Bacopa monnieri (Brahmi) and Terminalia arjuna (Arjuna): An in vitro study
Authors: Akhani Shweta
Published: April 2023

Background: High cholesterol is the sixth-highest risk factor for death in the globe. Herbal medications regularly complement modern medical care, especially by providing safe and well-tolerated therapies for chronic conditions.

Aims and Objectives: The present study was undertaken to evaluate and compare cholesterol lowering effects of Terminalia arjuna bark and Bacopa monnieri leaves (Brahmi) extract in human blood samples diagnosed with hyperlipidemia.

Materials and Methods: Herbal extract of arjuna (T. arjuna) and Brahmi (B. monnieri) leaves in distilled water (d/w) and cow’s urine (c/u) [A1, A2, B1, B2] was taken and added to the pooled serum samples collected aseptically and a kinetic study was performed with it. Cholesterol standard was obtained from Erba chem Transasia kit (Trinder’s method, endpoint) with standard cutoff value 200 mg/dL.

Results: Baseline reading of total cholesterol in all samples was 189 mg/dL. After 2 h, total cholesterol reading in A1 was 159 mg/dL, 157, 155 and 154 mg/dL in A2, B1, B2, respectively. After 4 h, total cholesterol reading in A1 was 149 mg/dL, 148, 146, and 144 mg/dL in A2, B1, B2, respectively. After 6 h, total cholesterol reading in A1 was 109 mg/dL, 104, 112, and 110 mg/dL in A2, B1, B2, respectively.

Conclusion: From the findings of the present study, it was found that aqueous extract of Brahmi (B. monnieri) and T. arjuna (Arjuna) were effective in reducing total cholesterol levels. It can be considered as a potential therapeutic alternative in patients with hyperlipidemia, but warrants further clinical studies.
Huwelijkse voorwaarden met gescheiden vermogens. Koude uitsluiting in het licht van de dynamische en affectieve relatie van echtgenoten.
Authors:   , Flos Alexander George Frans Marc
Published: April 2023

This research examines the problems arising upon divorce in the event spouses concluded a prenuptial agreement consisting of complete separation of property under Dutch law. If spouses do not sign a prenuptial agreement, the default matrimonial property regime applying in the Netherlands since 2018 is a limited community of property. This limited community of property covers premarital assets held in joint ownership and assets acquired during the marriage. This is a form of solidarity that protects the less monied spouse. Spouses can also sign a prenuptial agreement containing a more limited community of property, or complete separation of property with a netting covenant which results in in a participation of certain acquisitions during the marriage. Relinquishing this protection by signing a prenuptial agreement consisting only of complete separation of property can therefore be a dangerous choice. In essence, the main question of this research concerns the extent to which the prenuptial agreement consisting of complete separation of property continues to be justified in view of the detrimental consequences that such an agreement can have in the event of divorce, given that spouses signing such an agreement do not share in each other’s assets either during or at the end of the marriage. The adverse consequences in the event of divorce can include serious financial problems and feelings of unfairness.

DIREITOS HUMANOS, VIOLÊNCIA E AS POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS LGBT NO ULTRANEOLIBERALISMO E AS IMPLICAÇÕES PARA O SERVIÇO SOCIAL
Authors: Dos Santos Marco Gimenes , Liporoni Andreia Aparecida Reis de Carvalho
Published: April 2023

Este estudo investiga os direitos humanos, a violência e as políticas públicas LGBT no ultraneoliberalismo. Seu objetivo é compreender esses fenômenos na perspectiva crítica adotada pela vanguarda do Serviço Social brasileiro. Assim, opta-se pela revisão de literatura fundamentada na perspectiva crítico-dialética. Os resultados indicam que o desenvolvimento do capitalismo no Brasil engendra violações de direitos humanos, fomentam a violência e precarizam as políticas públicas LGBT no contexto ultraneoliberal e que as implicações para o Serviço Social consistem na defesa do Projeto Ético-Político e a luta coletiva para construir outra sociedade. Conclui-se que a defesa dos direitos humanos, o combate à violência e a defesa das políticas públicas é indissociável da luta por outra sociedade.
Mineralogical and Deposit-Geological Expertise of the Head of the Dean's Scepter of the Faculty of Chemical Technology, UCT Prague
Authors: Kratochvíl Bohumil
Published: April 2023

Academic insignia of the Faculty of Chemical Technology UCT Prague have a history and are used in academic ceremonies (graduation, ceremonial scientific councils, awarding honorary doctorates, etc.). Insignia consists of a single chain with a medal and a scepter. They are made of gold-plated silver and decorated with natural and synthetic precious stones. The central motif in the head of the sceptre is a pentagonal dodecahedron cut from sulphide ore. It consists mainly of pyrite, chalcopyrite and other minerals. The ore most probably comes from a Czech deposit. The pentagonal dodecahedron in the head of the scepter thus represents the conjunction of the power of intellect with art and manual dexterity.

The quest for convergence in Hungarian-Romanian relationships: A multi-actor approach and the transferability of good practices
Authors:   Faculty of Political, Communication and Administrative Sciences, Babeș-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca, Romania, RADU Bogdan Mihai
Published: April 2023

Hungarian-Romanian relations are difficult to assess because they involve a vast set of actors: from diplomats to civil society, from political parties to churches. If convergence in foreign policy is to be achieved and if genuine reconciliation is to take place, all these actors have to be taken into consideration and have to engage in a concerted manner. Bilateral relations between Hungary and Romania benefit from a dense network of cooperation initiatives, but they are neither sustainable, nor integrated into a vision aiming for convergence and reconciliation. Political will, joint historical research projects and youth bi-ethnic socialization are critical in creating a bilateral relation supported by true reconciliation.
Феміністична економіка як складова інклюзивного суспільного розвитку
Authors: Красота О. В. , Панова Л. І. А.
Published: April 2023

Метою статті є дослідження явища феміністичної економіки як окремого напряму економічної науки та складової сучасного інклюзивного суспільства. Визначено, що даний напрям є недостатньо дослідженим у вітчизняній економічній науці, натомість на рубежі ХХ-ХХІ ст. західні феміністичні фахівчині все більше уваги приділяють різним аспектам феміністичної економіки. Визначено місце феміністичної економіки в сучасній економічній науці, головні напрями її дослідження та цілі. Доведено, що жінкам притаманне виконання більшого обсягу неринкової діяльності відносно чоловіків (виховання дітей, різноманітна хатня робота, догляд за хворими членами сім'ї та людьми похилого віку тощо), що є «невидимим» для національних рахунків та обліку, тому не має ринкової вартості. Доводиться думка, що гендерна рівність пришвидшує інклюзивний суспільний розвиток, а використання принципів феміністичної економіки має бути врахованим при розробці макроекономічної політики.

Було сформовано основні перешкоди, які стримують розвиток та відновлення підприємництва в Україні. Доведено, що для ефективного відновлення та розвитку підприємництва першочерговими завданнями є створення відповідних умов, які включають забезпечення безпеки, відбудову інфраструктури, формування нових логістичних та бізнес ланцюгів. Обґрунтовано необхідність залучення інвестиційних коштів для відбудови та функціонування підприємництва як за рахунок державної підтримки так і за рахунок міжнародних партнерів та грантових програм. Проаналізовано основні перешкоди щодо здійснення підприємницької діяльності в Україні. Було запропоновано заходи, щодо відновлення та розвитку підприємницьких ініціатив в повоєнний період. Доведено, що через руйнування інфраструктурного забезпечення змінилися терміни та умови логістичних постачань в бік їх здороження через більшу тривалість та підвищення ризиків здійснення операцій. Встановлено, що розбудова та відновлення бізнес структур повинна базуватися на принципах Індустрії 4.0., які включають використання енергозберігаючих технологій, екологічність виробництва, цифровізацію та енергоефективність в виробничих процесах. Обґрунтовано доцільність та необхідність переорієнтації підприємств з ресурсного забезпечення до переробного та з повним циклом виробництва з високою доданою вартістю, що сприятиме підвищенню економічного та соціального добробуту в державі. Для ефективного розвитку та функціонування підприємництва необхідним є формування нових бізнес ланцюгів які повинні орієнтуватися на зовнішні європейські ринки.

The limit where Black-Scholes "works"
Authors: Lewis Alan
Published: April 2023

The seminal (Black and Scholes, 1973) publication celebrated in this issue introduced a (stock price evolution) model and an (option value) formula�two ideas worth distinguishing. Nowadays, the formula is used to represent option prices via an implied volatility, IV (T, K), where T is a time-to-maturity and K is a strike price. The formula is very useful. At the same time, because of the K-dependence, the model is strongly rejected in statistical tests. However, with T very large at fixed K, IV (T, K) typically flattens IV(T,K)? s8imp , where s8imp is independent of K. Flattening happens both with real data and many (more complicated) models. At fixed strike, the implied volatility parameter tends to a pure constant. But a constant volatility returns us to the original BS model in a sense. As somewhat of an abuse, I say that in the limit, the BS model again works�. What is this mysterious s8imp and how do we compute it? How is the limit approached? Answering those questions is the subject of this note. While my approach is largely expository, results for non- standard cases in the Heston model are likely novel. Their analysis requires a generalized saddle point method.
SPX, VIX and scale-invariant LSV*
Authors: Lipton Alexander and Reghai, Adil
Published: April 2023

Local Stochastic Volatility (LSV) models have been used for pricing and hedging derivatives positions for over 20 years. An enormous body of literature covers analytical and numerical techniques for calibrating the m model to market data. However, the literature misses a potent approach commonly used in physics and works with absolute (dimensional) variables rather than with relative (nondimensional) ones. While model parameters defined in absolute terms are counter-intuitive for trading desks and tend to be heavily time-dependent, relative parameters are intuitive and stable, making it easy to steer the model adequately and consistently with its Profit and Loss (PnL) explanation power. We propose a specification that first explores historical data and uses physically well-defined relative quantities to design the model. We then develop an efficient hybrid method to price derivatives under this specification. We also show how our method can be used for robust scenario generation purposes�an important risk management task vital for buy-side firms.

Abstract—Out of 100 more than 81% of women population has experienced some sort of harassment so that the women are becoming more afraid of stepping out of their homes. Women must have a capability to be free from violence, harassment, and discrimination; keeping this as a goal an IOT based device is introduced to solve this social problem. The solution is “SELF DEFENCIVE GLOVE FOR WOMEN SECURITY”. This idea is to design a system which makes every place and every hour safer for women. Previous methods used GPS and GSM modules which increased the system complexity and size. Thus, to bring up the portability feature into existence this proposal uses mobile app connectivity through Bluetooth HC-05. This system sends geotag and SOS alert to the nearest police station, emergency contacts. The unique feature is the ESP32 Camera, which helps in capturing the images of the culprit. The idea is to make up for the time it takes police to arrive at the location. Keywords—Glove, Bluetooth HC-05, Emergency, Women security, ESP-32, SOS alert.

Food and its significance are core issues individuals with eating disorders face, affecting their thinking, behavior, and function. Cooking interventions are being used in various therapeutic settings with various benefits. Specifically, occupational therapy practical food groups are a meaningful intervention for individuals with eating disorders. Practical food groups involve eating-related outings (going to a local cafe or restaurant) and meal-preparation activities. They do not however, usually discuss issues related to food and cooking, their role in the disorder, and their influence on relationships. Culinary-art therapy is a novel approach that broadly perceives food and cooking as enabling participants to explore needs, patterns, and relationships and facilitate therapeutic processes. We implemented a culinary-art therapy group intervention for inpatients with eating disorders. The group's main objectives were to use cooking to explore attitudes and feelings towards food and eating, facilitate a group and interpersonal process, provide psychoeducation on healthy eating, and improve eating behaviors. Thirty-eight adults participated in five consecutive rounds of the group. The intervention's impact was assessed using detailed notes of the sessions, group feedback sessions, and interviews. Participants reported that the group enabled them to deal with food anxieties and reexamine food-related cognitions and habits. Behavioral improvement also was observed among patients who began touching and preparing food they had previously avoided as they experienced new dishes. Culinary-art therapy has therapeutic potential for individuals with eating disorders, yet further applications and evaluations of this promising approach should be undertaken.

Writing about the theory of decision making is made with the aim of knowing and also getting to know how the management side of decision making is in a company and also an organization. The writing and research of the journal uses the method of reviewing literature studies taken from various writings, journals and also references which are national and international standards. Decision-making theory requires a series of structured and programmed processes that produce changes to the organization in a much better direction. In making this decision, it will set goals and objectives and identify problems. Then develop and determine alternatives in the decision-making process. The results of this study will later pay attention to several models or methods and also techniques for making the right decision to apply. From the research and also the elaboration of the literature review, it can be concluded that the decision-making process itself requires stages and steps that must be passed by all parties. By knowing the types of methods and techniques for making decisions that are appropriate and appropriate so as not to cause adverse factors. In practice, this decision-making should not be influenced by things that can make the decisions taken actually harm an organization. Decisions taken must be able to help organizations achieve their targets.

Objective To systematically translate the Duchenne muscular dystrophy Functional Ability Self-Assessment Tool (DMDSAT) into Korean and verify the reliability and validity of the Korean version (K-DMDSAT).Methods The original DMDSAT was translated into Korean by two translators and two pediatric physiatrists. A total of 88 patients with genetically confirmed Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) participated in the study. They were evaluated using the K-DMDSAT once as a self-assessment and once by an interviewer. The interviewer evaluated the K-DMDSAT again 1 week later using a test-retest approach. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to verify the interrater and test-retest reliabilities. Pearson correlation analysis between the K-DMDSAT and the Brooke or Vignos scales were used to assess validity.Results The total score and all domains of the K-DMDSAT showed excellent interrater and test-retest reliability, with an ICC for total scores of 0.985 and 0.987, respectively. All domains had an ICC >0.90. From the Pearson correlation analysis, the total K-DMDSAT score was significantly correlated with the Vignos and Brooke scales (r=0.918 and 0.825, respectively; p<0.001), and each domain of K-DMDSAT showed significant correlation with either the Vignos or Brooke scales.Conclusion DMDSAT was systematically translated into Korean, and K-DMDSAT was verified to have excellent reliability and validity. K-DMDSAT can help clinicians easily describe and categorize various functional aspects of patients with DMD through the entire disease progression.

According to the Digital Report of July, 2021, Billions of users around the world uses Mobile Phones, Internet, social media every second. This huge range of heterogeneous digital data is called Big Data, and is measured in terms of terabytes or petabytes. It is difficult to the conventional relational databases to handle these heterogeneous data for data analytics, but is still in use significantly in the growth of Big Data. To handle SQL-based structured queries, Hadoop is one of the prominent and well-suited solution that allows Big Data to be stored and processed. Hive support SQL queries on Hadoop. Hive warehouse, is the oldest SQL-engine on the top of the Hadoop framework and to store the processed data, it uses HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System). On the Hadoop, MapReduce is an execution engine that executes SQL-based queries. In the Query Optimization, join ordering always plays a significant role because when the order of tables in joining operation is changed, execution time of the query is reduced to a greater extent. The main problem of the Hive is that it does not enhance the order of the join for an SQL-query and also does not give assurance for an optimal execution plan. Its time complexity is measured in exponential (Shan, Y., & Chen, Y., 2015).The main focus of this paper is to discover the finest join ordering solution for a Hive query optimization problem through appropriate search algorithms and to improve SQL-based Hive queries performance with MapReduce–based system.

Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) is a popular method to be selected in numerous studies in solving decision-making cases. Methods like SAW, WASPAS, SMART, and WP are preferred among researchers to be used for many purposes. However, the best method still not compared in determining best employee. Hence, the study conducted the comparison between the methods by using the Rank Similarity Index (RSI). The index is used to express the most appropriate method. In terms of weighting, we propose the D-CRITIC method as the tool to support the comparison procedure. Moreover, we select the bus driver as the sample case of the study with total of 10 candidates are nominated to be chosen as the best. The company has given the rank list before, so we just compare the actual rank with the result of MADM methods calculations. The result shows that SAW and WASPAS are the methods with the highest similarity towards the rank. Furthermore, these methods also reach the great score of the RSI between the others.
