A comprehensive study on the assessment of chemically modified Azolla pinnata as a potential cadmium sequestering agent
Authors: Rajalakshmi Kaakarlu Shivakumar Vinanthi , Paari Kuppusamy Alagesan
Published: January 2024

The major environmental issue raised throughout the world is the egression of toxic pollutants in water bodies. Hence, employment of novel technological interventions such as bioremediation and phytoremediation for mitigating the toxic effects caused by the pollutants has gained attention. The aquatic macrophyte, Azolla pinnata is utilized as a biofiltering agent in the present study for the chelation of metal toxicants from the artificial wastewater system. The nutritive value of A. pinnata was determined to be 268.99Kcal/100g energy and the mineral profiling showed the highest amount of calcium (54.7ppm), iron (14.04ppm) and manganese (7.96 ppm). The quantitative screening of total phenolic and total flavonoid contents showed a maximum of 402.33±4.29 mg/g GAE and 105.25±3.81 mg/g QE respectively and the sample exhibited strong antioxidant activity in quenching the DPPH radicals with an IC50 value of 88.27μg/ml. Similarly, the highest bioactivity was observed in methanolic and chloroform extract of A. pinnata biomass showing the zone of growth inhibition against E. coli (17mm) and S. aureus (18mm). The results recorded from the SEM-EDX, GCMS, FTIR and XRD confirmed the adsorptive properties of biomass. The chemically modified and unmodified Azolla exposed to cadmium metal solution showed the maximum adsorption of about 0.47±0.001 and 0.48±0.003 ppm in 60mins using the unmodified biomass with dosage of 0.75 and 1.0g respectively. Moreover, the results recorded from the instrumental characterization for the adsorptive properties of Azolla biomass proved that cadmium chelation is due to the modifications caused in porosity, surface structure and the addition of functional groups in the treated biomass surface.
Thermal management of multiple LEDs for high-power lighting applications
Authors: Cho Ju Yong , JANG Won Kweon
Published: January 2024

Power LED lighting has suffered from substantial heat generated, leading to significant performance degradation. Consequently, achieving an optimal distribution of LEDs is essential to ensure high luminance efficiency. Implementing effective thermal treatment is important to prevent any potential degradation in the performance of the LED lighting system. Optimizing the arrangement of individual LEDs is a promising approach to mitigating heat accumulation issues. In this paper, we propose a reasonable approach to obtaining the optimal distribution of LED lighting systems under DC biasing and PWM operating conditions. The thermal analysis simulation was performed based on the theoretical assumption to evaluate the thermal distribution of a single LED. Thermal analysis was conducted on an LED lighting system with 20 LEDs, and the distance between LEDs ranged from 4 mm to 24 mm. The simulated analysis showed that the maximum temperature could be controlled from 65.1 ℃ to 58.7 ℃. We discussed the optimum arrangement of LEDs and how heat generated by an LED influences the system. In addition, the LED lighting was operated in PWM mode to mitigate the thermal issues. The relationship between luminance efficiency and operation condition is discussed. Thus, the luminance efficiency improved from 114.8 lm/W to 126.8 lm/W, and the thermal relaxation time was no longer than 0.013 s. The process of determining the optimal distance between LEDs was very effective in achieving an optimized power operating condition and LEDs distribution in the module for a compact volume and enhanced performance.

Published: January 2024

Millions of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses compose the human gut microbiome. There is variation in the composition of species from the moment of birth throughout the whole human lifecycle. Gut microbiome play a central role in maintaining body equilibrium, influencing a range of physiological processes including metabolism, the maintenance of barriers, inflammation, and hematopoiesis, both within and outside the intestines. An imbalanced microbial environment within the gastrointestinal tract is at the core of numerous diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disorder, obesity, diabetes, and Clostridioides difficile infection, and plays a pivotal role in their development. In this review, we discuss the therapeutic approaches of gut microbiome-related therapies including fecal microbiota transplantation, anti-microbial therapies, prebiotics, probiotics and Dietary interventions to repair the altered gut microbiome composition. The pursuit of new therapies and their subsequent improvement is propelled by an ongoing requirement for evaluation, experimentation, laboratory procedures, and the ethical and technological limitations associated with clinical translation.
First Steps in Verified Placement, Routing and Timing
Authors: Myreen Magnus O.
Published: January 2024

Doing any formal reasoning below the boolean abstraction of hardware gates is very unusual, mostly because the models of hardware below this abstraction layer are, at least to me, vague and/or complicated.

In this talk, I will present a not-so-serious work-in-progress project on formal reasoning below the level of the boolean abstraction of hardware gates. More precisely, I will explain how hardware gates realised in Conway's Game of Life can be verified and how verified circuits consisting of such gates can be developed. This project touches on verification of placement, routing and timing, which are topics I suspect formal verification in interactive theorem provers have not explored before.
Energy Transparency - More Power to Software Developers!
Authors: Eder Kerstin
Published: January 2024

Energy efficiency is now a major, if not the major, constraint in electronic systems engineering. Significant progress has been made in low power hardware design for several decades. The potential for savings is now far greater at the higher levels of abstraction in the system stack. The greatest savings are expected from energy consumption-aware software. Promoting energy efficiency to a first class software design goal is therefore an urgent research challenge.

Designing software for energy efficiency requires visibility of energy consumption from the hardware, where the energy is consumed, all the way through to the programs that ultimately control what the hardware does. This visibility is termed energy transparency. Energy transparency enables a deeper understanding of how algorithms and coding impact on the energy consumption of a computation when executed on hardware. It is a key prerequisite for informed design space exploration and helps system designers to find the optimal trade-off between performance, accuracy, security and energy consumption of a computation.

In this seminar I will outline recent research advances that will give "more power" to software developers. We will investigate why software is key to energy efficient computing, what energy transparency is, how to monitor and measure the energy consumed by software, how to model energy consumption at different abstraction levels, how data affects the energy consumption of a computation, and how to statically estimate the energy consumed by software.
DB/OS Co-Design in the MxKernel Project
Authors: Teubner Jens
Published: January 2024

Better integrating layers in the system software stack is seen as a promising way to leverage the potential of modern hardware technologies. In my talk I will describe our vision in the MxKernel project to make the co-design of databases and operating systems real. In MxKernel fundamentally change the process abstraction from threads to “tasks.” Tasks represent small units of work, rather than (lengthy) pieces of control flow. This makes them a better abstraction to enrich them with information about application characteristics. In the talk I will illustrate how this enables (a) automatic data prefetching by the task scheduler and (b) synchronization in multi-core environments with less developer effort, yet lower contention during execution.
Learning to Design Efficient Logic Circuits

Published: January 2024

Logic synthesis is the problem of designing a circuit composed of logic gates (e.g., AND, OR, etc.) from an abstract specification of a function (e.g., a truth table) that the circuit should implement. It is how the basic building blocks of modern chips are designed, and is therefore one of the fundamental problems of modern chip design. This is a challenging problem, because in addition to fidelity to the specification, logic synthesis must also take into account the efficiency of the design when implemented in hardware. We propose a machine learning-driven approach to design efficient logic circuits, composed of two stages:

1. Generate a design that optimizes correctness with respect to the specification.
2. Optimize the efficiency of the design while maintaining functional equivalence with respect to the design from the first stage.

We compared our technique to other competitive approaches by participating in the IWLS 2023 Programming Contest and achieved the best solution on 82% of circuit design problems in the competition. These results demonstrate that the proposed approach can be used to design logic circuits that are both functionally correct and competitive with human-designed circuits.
Functional Hardware Design and Verification Revisited
Authors: Sheeran Mary
Published: January 2024

I have long been fascinated by the problem of how to describe and reason about regular algorithms, and especially those that are well suited to direct implementation as circuits. I use higher order functions to capture circuit structure, and I argue for the use of correctness preserving transformations. An important class of transformations enables trade-offs between space and time. I keep coming back to the problem of folding circuits or indeed programs so that they fit into less space or onto a given architecture. This problem seems to crop up all over the place, for example when colleagues at DeepMind fold huge programs implementing language models onto available hardware, or in Carl Seger's Thor system for hardware design by transformation, presented at NANDA last year. So I think it is time to tackle these transformations, and programming language support for them, again, since I am not satisfied with my earlier attempts. In this talk, I will concentrate on circuits, and will present first steps towards verified circuit folding. A key aim is to design transformations that allow as much as possible of the resulting verification to be done using combinational rather than sequential verification.

Published: January 2024

The financial sector plays a major role in the economy of the Kingdom Bahrain. This study aimed at examining the relationship between individual and organisational factors in the financial services triad and the level of satisfaction with training programs. Using an online survey, 538 responses were collected from employees in the banking and finance, investment, and insurance sectors in Bahrain. The analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between employees’ satisfaction with training and their age, gender, who selected the program and the mode of delivery, while there was no correlation between their satisfaction with training and their speciality or length of work experience. The participants expressed interest in personalising the training plan to their own needs and goals; receiving more advanced training that is linked to personal and organisational strategic plans; receiving more interaction during the programs; and having problem-based cases and topics introduced into the training.

It demonstrates how the participation of individuals with disabilities contributes to the implementation ofuniversal design and enhances the usability of assistive technology. Through practical community initiatives, the study explores the construction of an environment for sports and leisure services for individuals with disabilities, with the goal of promoting their social participation. Method The case study was conducted in two southern organizations: the Disability Association and the Disability Fitness Center. Field data was collected through participatory observation and focus group interviews. Results Analysis of the Human Activity Assistive Technology (HAAT) model revealed that participatory design aligns more closely with the ideals of universal design outLINEd in the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), ensuring that the final design of assistive devices better meets user needs. The Inter professional Practice (IPP) allows for the collection of contextual information through professional dialogue. The training machine provides a context that promotes social inclusion, bringing stakeholders closer to an independent lifestyle through mutual assistance. Cultural context and environmental proximity are identified as factors that need to be addressed to overcome barriers to sports and leisure activities. Conclusion Assistive technology should involve the participation of people with disabilities from the planning stage, with a foundation in universal design to promote social inclusion. Welfare service planning requires a comprehensive understanding of the daily lives of individuals with disabilities, and the concept of health services should be rooted in prevention, situated within the community. There is a need for a reevaluation of space design and human resource allocation.

Bethlen István és a világgazdasági válság
Authors: Szávai Ferenc
Published: January 2024

Bethlen István 1921. április 14-én kapott megbízást Horthy Miklós kormányzótól a miniszterelnöki funkció betöltésére. Neve egy korszakot szimbolizál, több mint tíz esztendeig a bethleni konszolidáció fűződik nevéhez. A kormányzás azonban nem volt zökkenőmentes, több konfliktusa keletkezett az ellenzékkel, a nemzetközi életben is. Szimbolikusan 1926 őszén lemondott, amit Horthy nem fogadott el. Valóságosan a világgazdasági válság idején kerül sor a tényleges lemondására, a tanulmány arra tesz kísérletet, hogy bemutassa, ebben milyen tényezők játszottak szerepet, különösen a világgazdasági válság. Beszédei, írásai és korabeli és mai szakirodalom ad magyarázatot a probléma összetett megközelítésére.
El litio en la geopolítica ambiental de Estados Unidos: la tensión con China para el caso chileno
Authors: Estenssoro Fernando , Carrasco Luna Alejandro
Published: January 2024

En este trabajo se plantea que el acceso a las fuentes del mineral de litio está adquiriendo un carácter estratégico y de seguridad nacional para Estados Unidos, en el marco del cambio climático y la urgente necesidad de sustituir la malla energética global “fósil”. Esta situación, unida a la rivalidad que tiene Estados Unidos con China, estaría llevando a una renovada injerencia estadounidense sobre los países de América Latina que tienen grandes explotaciones y reservas de este recurso, como es el caso de Chile. La superpotencia americana ha comenzado a ejercer presión sobre el gobierno, autoridades y opinión pública del país, con el objetivo de expulsar o disminuir significativamente la creciente importancia de los capitales chinos en la explotación de este recurso. Presión que tendería a aumentar en la medida en que la rivalidad con China siga aumentando.

La gobernanza de las áreas marinas protegidas: un modelo global puesto a prueba por controversias y reinvenciones locales
Authors: Beuret Jean-Eudes , Cadoret Anne
Published: January 2024

En el mundo se crean numerosas áreas marinas protegidas (AMP) como respuesta a ambiciosos objetivos internacionales. Son extremadamente diversas en cuanto a estatus, objetivos y modalidades de gobernanza: pero, ¿no oculta esta diversidad un modelo genérico de gobernanza implícito, aplicado en realidades muy diferentes? Para responder a esta pregunta, se realizó un análisis comparativo de 13 estudios de caso de AMP en 5 continentes, combinando observación in situ, análisis documental, entrevistas, participación en momentos de diálogo entre partes interesadas. Este análisis revela que los numerosos conflictos generados por las dificultades de aceptación de estas áreas protegidas se basan en malentendidos e insatisfacciones recurrentes. El análisis de los discursos de los protagonistas revela los componentes de un modelo genérico que cuestionan: se refieren a la participación y a las configuraciones de la gobernanza, a lo que fundamenta la legitimidad de la toma de decisiones dentro de la gobernanza, a las temporalidades y vectores de la toma de decisiones, a los objetivos y relaciones con la naturaleza que sirven de marco a la gobernanza. Estos componentes chocando a menudo con referencias locales, hemos observado formas de adaptación y reinvención local del modelo. Dado el carácter expansionista de este modelo y la forma en que se impone a todos, esto nos lleva a discutir el concepto de colonialismo verde (y azul) y la forma en que este modelo moviliza colonialidades del saber, del poder, del ser y de la naturaleza.

Allama Iqbal’s Epistemological Approach Towards Religious Ontology
Authors: Dr. Ali RazaTahir  , Muhammad Iqbal Shah
Published: January 2024

Ontology is a branch of knowledge which is related to the types of existences which are two types the Phenomena and the Noumena. Epistemology is a branch of knowledge which explains the nature and existence of the physical objects which have surrounded us thus the is called the phenomena world. But there are some non-physical ‘phenomenoa’ which Kant had described as the Noumena world. For the former, the human rationality and observation are the types of epistem0lgy which provide answer to some extent. But for the later, these epistemological sources are not sufficient. Thus religion proclaims that it has answer to all these ‘noumenal world’ and metaphysical existences.

Here is Allama Iqbal’s understanding and views that what epistemological approach Islam adopts and how it interprets and explains the noumenal existence such as, the concept 0f God, the human beings, the nature of human beings, their relation to the world, the God and the relationship between the noumenal and phenomenal worlds and the roll of theses explanation in the status of the human beings.

Authors: Ruiz-Camacho Wilfredo
Published: January 2024

Este trabajo se realizó con el objetivo de conocer el comportamiento del cultivo de naranja Valencia en “fincas tipo” de la provincia de Chanchamayo, Junín-Perú. El estudio se realizó en Chanchamayo, Región Junín, entre los meses de enero y diciembre del año 2016; para ello se seleccionaron cuatro “fincas tipo” (FT1, FT2, FT3, FT4), con plantas de diez años de edad.

Se le denomina “finca tipo” a la propiedad representativa del grupo de fincas del que fue seleccionado. En cada “finca tipo” se tomaron muestras de suelo, se seleccionaron cincuenta plantas y se evaluaron las características químicas del suelo; incidencia de plagas y enfermedades, calidad del fruto (peso, diámetro y brix) y rendimiento. Para el análisis estadístico, cada “finca tipo” se consideró como un tratamiento, y cada planta como una repetición (cuatro tratamientos con cincuenta repeticiones); y se trabajó como si fuera un Diseño Completamente al Azar.

Los resultados mostraron que el comportamiento de la naranja Valencia fue mejor en la FT2. Esta “finca tipo” tuvo la menor incidencia de plagas y enfermedades; la mejor calidad de fruta y el mayor rendimiento, pero también es la que recibió una mayor inversión.

PERANAN MUSLIMAT DALAM MENJADIKAN MASJID SEBAGAI PUSAT KHIDMAT SOSIAL
Authors: Ismail Nazneen , Abu Bakar Sahlawati , Ismail Khairunnisa , Bakar Norul Huda
Published: January 2024

The mosque has been a spiritual and social centre for the Muslim community since the time of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Although mosques are generally managed by men, this does not negate the contributions of Muslim women (Muslimat) in enriching the mosque environment. This study aims to analyze the role of Muslim women in making the mosque a hub for social services. The study adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design. Three mosques and three small prayer halls (surau) from nearby locations were selected as the study samples. Study participants consist of active Muslim women committee members appointed. The study employs a focused group discussion protocol as the interview instrument. Data is transcribed and analyzed using the thematic analysis method with the Atlas.ti software. The study findings indicate that women also play a role in mosque enlivening (imarah), particularly in the realm of social services. The social services carried out aim to assist community members facing social, economic, health, and other issues, while also maintaining the well-being of women in the community. Activities undertaken include charitable sales, foster care programs, financial aid for chronic patients, recreational activities, charitable visits, grant (hibah) management, and collaborations with non-governmental organizations. The contributions of Muslim women through these social service activities benefit the overall community, strengthen social ties, and foster a harmonious environment within the mosque community. This illustrates that Muslim women also possess the potential to empower themselves and Muslim women in general through involvement in programs beyond the mosque environment. Therefore, both the community members and mosque administration should provide support and acknowledge the contributions of Muslimat in mosque enlivening, particularly concerning matters related to Muslim women.

Factors influencing household expenditure on school education in Karnataka
Authors: Jayalakshmi N. , Indira M
Published: January 2024

Private expenditure on school education is one of the sources of education expenditure other than state and central government spending. The 86th Constitutional Amendment Act 2002, and the Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009 introduced a rights-based approach to free and compulsory education for all children in the age group of six to fourteen years in India.   Under the Right to Education (RTE) Act, a limited number of seats are allocated for free education to economically backward sections in private and private-aided schools. Despite the free education for students in government schools and RTE admissions in private schools, parents incur considerable expenditure. With the increase in the number of private schools, there is an increasing trend in private expenditure on education in India. In this context, this paper analyses factors influencing household expenditure on school education. It is based on primary data collected at the household level in Mysuru district in both rural and urban areas through a survey.  The sample consists of 192 households each from urban and rural areas selected randomly from the list available at the schools. Factors influencing the education expenditure of the households on school education were estimated through a linear regression model.  Annual Household Income (AHHI), Occupational Status of Father (OSF), Location of Household (LHH), Education Level of Mother (ELM), Education Level of Father (ELF) and Type of Institution (TI) have a positive and significant relationship with total Annual Household Education Expenditure (AHHEE) of the first child in school. In the case of a second school-going child, only Annual Household Income (AHHI) and Type of Institution (TI) were found to have a significant relationship with Annual Household Education Expenditure (AHHEE).

The ubiquity of interconnected devices within the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has revolutionized modern connectivity, simultaneously amplifying the susceptibility of networks to diverse security threats. This study addresses the pressing necessity for robust intrusion detection mechanisms tailored for IoT networks. Utilizing a simulated dataset reflecting a spectrum of network intrusions within a military environment, the research employs sophisticated methodologies, notably harnessing Decision Tree (DT) algorithms optimized via Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) for hyperparameter tuning. The investigation meticulously evaluates and refines intrusion detection mechanisms, emphasizing the pivotal role of feature importance analysis in fortifying network security. Results demonstrate the efficacy of the optimized DT algorithm in the precise classification of network traffic, illuminating key attributes instrumental for intrusion detection. These findings underscore the significance of adaptive and interpretable detection strategies in mitigating evolving threats within IoT networks, advocating for resilient approaches to bolster network security.

The control group was given routine oral care, and the observation group was given oral care according to improved Beck oral score. The following were compared between the two groups: Age, total burn area, third-degree burn area, acute physiological and chronic health assessment scores, as well as improved Beck oral scores; the incidence of oral odor, plaque index, mouth ulcer and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) after 7 days; the detection of microorganism in oral secretions.Results: After 7 days, the oral condition of patients in observation group was effectively improved, and the oral comfort level was significantly improved. The incidence of oral odor (2.57±1.59), dental plaque index (2.62±1.47), oral ulcer evaluation (2.24±1.09), VAP incidence (9.52%) and improved Beck oral score (8.09±1.92) in observation group were all lower than those in control group, which was (3.95±1.82), (3.57±1.21), (3.14±1.24), (38.09%), and (9.90±2.21) respectively. The difference was statistically significant (p < .05). The oral normal flora in observation group (71.43%) was higher than that in control group (28.57%), and the difference was statistically significant (p < .05). The oral gram-positive bacteria (19.05%) and Gram-negative bacteria (23.81%) in observation group were lower than those in control group, which was 52.38% and 57.14% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (p < .05).Conclusions: The application of the improved Beck oral assessment method in dynamic oral care can effectively reduce the content of oral pathogens, lower the incidence of pulmonary infection, and improve the quality of life of patients.
