Cuando se quiso resucitar el jardín español. Las aportaciones de Javier de Winthuysen y Fernando García Mercadal
Authors: Tuset Juan
Published: September 2024

La introducción de la cultura moderna en la arquitectura española se puede examinar en la mutación de lo viejo a lo nuevo, simbolizada en las formas arquitectónicas o en una aproximación a la interpretación de este cambio en las diferentes teorías estéticas, sociales y económicas que la determinan. Este trabajo trata de entender la adaptación hacia lo moderno del jardín español a través de los encuentros o desencuentros, las disputas intelectuales o tensiones profesionales que pudieron coexistir entre el pintor jardinero Javier de Winthuysen y el arquitecto Fernando García Mercadal. Hacemos la revisión y la lectura crítica de sus primeros proyectos de jardines, de su participación heterogénea en el concurso de los jardines de las Antiguas Caballerizas Reales y de sus propuestas disímiles para los jardines del Museo del Prado. Posteriormente, tratamos de comprender las sensibilidades vitales del paisajista y del arquitecto hacia las transformaciones radicales de su tiempo, en una pretendida renovación del jardín en España, planteada desde su particular forma de entender la vida, la arquitectura y el jardín.
Ancestors of the Minoan sword: Early Minoan IB long daggers from Hagia Photia, Crete
Authors: Davaras Costis , Betancourt Philip P. , Giumlia-Mair Alessandra , Ferrence Susan C.
Published: September 2024

The long sword, a weapon first known in the Aegean Bronze Age from Middle Minoan Crete (early second millennium BC), represented the culmination of a long period of development. Several problems in both casting and forging had to be solved before the production of large implements like swords could be achieved. Very early experiments with long weapons come from Early Minoan IB Crete, early in the third millennium BC. Examples from the cemetery at Hagia Photia illustrate this early phase in the production of large implements.
The Palaeolithic in Transcarpathia (Ukraine) and the different use of various lithic raw material outcrops and sources
Authors: Demidenko Yuri E. , Rácz Béla
Published: September 2024

The present article proposes a new approach for the detailed analysis of lithic raw material sources and their use by various human groups during the period from the Lower Palaeolithic to the Early Upper Palaeolithic in Transcarpathia, western Ukraine. The approach is based upon the study of particular outcrops and sources of basic raw material types in Transcarpathia, examining their role in supplying various human groups across different Palaeolithic epochs and periods, both within and outside of the outcrop/source areas. Our analysis identified three localized volcanic-associated lithic raw material regions that demonstrate a ve ry limited ‘micro-region/source’ pattern of lithic exploitation. In contrast, more widely dispersed sedimentary regions with rock types that intermittently appear on the landscape show continuous use across most Transcarpathian areas and archaeological sites, including those located both at and far from outcrops/sources.
MEDIA CONTENT IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
Authors: MURSELI Faton , MJEKIQI Behar
Published: September 2024

Digitalization has significantly influenced the challenges facing the media industry. The very process of media transformations "is no longer a technical need, but is already a social reflection and need, a need for communication, a need for solving political and technological problems in the society of this time" (Bebić & Volarević, 2016). Therefore, the attention of users is increasingly difficult to capture, thanks to the diversity of media publications, and in this sense traditional media often fail to respond to specific audience demands (Trattner, et al., 2022).Today, users are exposed to a large amount of information on a daily basis, their content is increasing, so media content cannot be imposed on users, but they choose only what they are interested in for consumption. However, traditional electronic media have understood the importance of the new multidimensional environment, therefore they are using a multiplatform through the Internet that use digital technology both to place the content and to personalize the offers against the user (Ćitić, 2020).
The historical past och the practical past: Om ett utvecklat lärande i historia på gymnasie- och högskolenivå
Authors: Persson Helén
Published: September 2024

Våren 2018 debatterades skolans historieämne i pressen. En studie av Stefan Sellbjer vid Linnéuniversitetet visade att flera professorer inte menade sig kunna uppfylla skolans kunskapskrav ens i de egna ämnena. Föräldrar menade å sin sida att kunskapskraven var så abstrakta och komplexa att de inte längre kunde förhöra sina barn om läxan. Frågan som följer är hur progression från gymnasiet till högskolan kan beskrivas, utifrån historieämnets realisering på de olika stadierna. Vad anser lärare som undervisar i historia? Hur ser de på historieämnets relevans, undervisning i ämnet och dess mål? En hypotes som bekräftas i intervjuerna med fem gymnasielärare och fem lärare på högskolenivå, är att historia på de båda nivåerna är att betrakta som två olika ämnen, vilket i sin tur förklarar att lärarna upplever en bristfällig progression. Progressionen kan i det närmaste beskrivas som omvänd. På högskolenivå upplever lärarna att studenterna har för lite historisk sakkunskap, vilket gör de inledande kronologiska kurserna oundgängliga. Gymnasieämnet omfattar i större utsträckning färdigheter, men på lösan grund. Om historia på högskolenivå handlar om the historical past, och att blicka tillbaka för att fånga det förflutna, så handlar historia på gymnasienivå mer om the practical past, och att förstå nuet med blicken mot framtiden.

Development of a consumer-based brand equity strategy for the positioning of football team brands
Authors: Gülmez Yavuz Selim , Boyraz Elif
Published: September 2024

This paper develops a brand positioning strategy based on consumer-based brand equity for football team brands. The study is designed and validated in three separate empirical phases. In Study 1, the authors interviewed experts in the field using a qualitative research design and identified the football team brands with the highest consumer-based brand equity. In Study 2, the authors applied explanatory factor analysis to the spectator-based brand equity scale to find the appropriate factors for evaluating the identified team brands. In Study 3, the authors used multidimensional scaling and evaluated and discussed team brands based on the identified factors. As a result of the research, an ‘ideal brand’ had to be designed, taking into account the ten football team brands identified in Study 1 and the six factors identified in Study 2. This brand was rated ‘best’ across all factors and compared with other brands. The authors recommend this new brand positioning strategy to practitioners and emphasise that future studies should be conducted in other countries and for other sports disciplines.
IMPACT OF THE JUNGIAN ARCHETYPES OF THE INNOCENT, THE ORPHAN, THE PATRON, THE WARRIOR, AND THE HERO’S JOURNEY ON YOUNG'S FIVE SCHEMATIC AREAS
Authors: Panahi Mohammad
Published: September 2024

This research investigates the impact of Jung's archetypes of innocent, orphan, patron, and hero's journey on Young's five schematic areas. Its statistical population is individuals who were active members in social network groups of psychology, whose total number is not available. The research is correlational. The statistical sample with four predictive variables should be more than (50 + 8M) (82 people) according to Tabachnik and Fidel's formula, to calculate the sample size in regression research. 244 people participated in this research. The sampling is random. It used the Pearson-Mar archetype questionnaire and the 75-question short form of Young's schema to collect data. This research used Pearson's moment correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression to test the hypotheses, and α=0.05 was a significance level. The results showed that the Jungian archetype of the innocent, orphan, supporter, and hero’s journey has, apart from the warrior archetype, a relationship with Young's primary maladaptive schemas and can predict them.
Ethical Considerations and Challenges in the Integration of Artificial Intelligence in Education: A Systematic Review
Authors: Farooqi Muhammad Tahir Khan , Amanat Ishaq , Awan Sher Muhammad
Published: September 2024

This systematic review examines those challenges in light of data privacy, algorithmic bias, ethical implications, technological hurdles, and acceptance of AI by educators and students. First, data privacy should be a primary concern, as AI systems require extensive data, bringing up the potential for breach and misuse. Secondly, there must be a robust mechanism concerning data protection and against the application of GDPR. Another critical point is algorithm bias: biased training data sets may lead to discriminative decisions that will increase inequalities in education. It talks about AI's impact on teachers and classroom dynamics because the takeover of responsibilities may lower the intensity of necessary human contact. From a technical perspective, there is so much infrastructure and expertise required that too many educational institutions lack, especially in developing countries. In addition, educators themselves may feel that the change resists and fears job loss and therefore acts as a deterrent to AI integration. The review underscores the imperative for extensive training of teachers to support enabling the integration of AI. It now demands a collaborative effort on the part of all stakeholders to maximize the gains and reduce the drawbacks of AI in educational aspects. Continuous research in, policy-making for, and ethical guidelines on AI are required to benefit all aspects of education equitably and effectively.

Published: September 2024

Prenatal care encompasses medical attention provided to pregnant women from conception to childbirth. This study aimed to determine the association between the respondents' sociodemographic profiles and the quality of prenatal care. A descriptive, correlational research method was used in this study. Utilizing the "a priori power analysis," 120 respondents were randomly selected using the following criteria: mothers who had prenatal checkups in selected barangay health centers in a District in Davao City, of legal age, and were willing to participate in the study, after giving birth one to three months. Data were collected from March to April 2024. Results revealed that most respondents were young adult, primigravida, multiparous, with full-term babies, high school graduates, and family monthly income of 7,000 – 10,000. The quality of prenatal care was high, particularly the "information sharing," anticipatory guidance, sufficient time, approachability, availability, and support and respect. Furthermore, educational attainment, particularly undergraduates, high school graduates, and baccalaureate degree holders, and with term babies, was noted to have a statistically significant association with their quality of prenatal care. Hence, having a good educational attainment and a "term baby" reciprocates good prenatal care among the respondents. The quality of prenatal care upholds standards of giving good services and approaches that participants experience during their prenatal checkups.

Authors: Guro Aldrees Ansary
Published: September 2024

This study investigates the impact of leadership, agricultural innovation, and peace and order on agricultural development in Lanao del Sur. Focusing on four municipalities—Taraka, Marantao, Ganassi, and Malabang—each with unique agricultural characteristics, the study aims to understand how these factors contribute to the region's agricultural progress. A total of 399 participants were surveyed using adapted and researcher-made instruments. Descriptive-correlational and causal research designs were employed to analyze the data through mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. The results reveal that strong leadership in political, economic, and collective agricultural actions significantly enhances development. High levels of agricultural innovation, particularly in farming methods and infrastructure, were also observed. However, the persistence of "rido" (clan feuding) and lawlessness, despite ongoing police and military efforts, continues to challenge peace and order in the province. The study concludes that while leadership and innovation drive agricultural progress, sustained efforts to maintain peace are crucial for further development.

Authors: Lorenzo Toscano
Published: September 2024

Nel complesso delle terre sigillate rinvenute a Pompei, le importazioni orientali sono decisamente inferiori rispetto ai manufatti provenienti dal centro della Penisola. Tale tendenza, tuttavia, ha conosciuto una leggera inversione di marcia, soprattutto a seguito delle intense attività di scavo che hanno interessato il Parco Archeologico negli ultimi decenni che hanno documentato anche una estesa variabilità delle produzioni attestate. Oltre alla Eastern Sigillata A, i contesti di Pompei hanno restituito numerosi oggetti, ampiamente inediti, a vernice rossa provenienti da altri luoghi del Levante romano. Tra questi, i vasi in sigillata pergamena (ESC) anche con unica pompeiani.
In the whole of the Terra Sigillata found in Pompeii, eastern imports are significantly lower than the artefacts from the centre of the Peninsula. This trend, however, has experienced a slight reversal, especially following the intense excavation activities that have taken place in the Archaeological Park in recent decades, which have also documented an extensive variability of the productions attested. In addition to the Eastern Sigillata A, the Pompeii contexts have yielded numerous, largely unpublished, red-painted objects from other red paint from other sites in the Roman Levant. Among them, the vases in sealed parchment (ESC) also with Pompeian uniqueness.

Diagnosis of Bee Diseases in Adult Honey Bees and Brood According to Clinical Findings
Authors: Gurcay Metin
Published: September 2024

There are bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic diseases that affect bee health in honey bee farming. These diseases directly affect the health of the honey bee and therefore the health of the colony. These diseases affect the development periods of the bees after the egg stage in the honeycombs, affect the performance and production capacity of the colony by infecting the honey bees in the adult period, and affect the epidemiology of the disease by allowing the causative agents of the diseases to multiply and spread around. For this reason, honey bee colonies should be carefully observed during the adult and larval stages, and the shape of the clinical symptoms and the clinical symptoms they leave on the honeycomb and adult bees should be carefully examined. The symptoms caused by disease agents in honey bees, hives and colonies are specific depending on the agent. As a result of these clinical symptoms and examinations on the honey bee, hive or colony, the suspected disease should be named and measures should be taken for protection and control without delay. When necessary, appropriate samples should be taken and sent to the laboratory for agent diagnosis.
The Use of Bee Products in Animal Production and Nutrition
Authors: Yavuz Sirac
Published: September 2024

The rising global demand for protein-rich meals as a result of fast population increase has resulted in fierce competition for resources for human nutrition and animal feed production, causing substantial environmental degradation and resource depletion. This convergence of needs has resulted in a slew of environmental issues, including deforestation, worsening water scarcity, and biodiversity loss, all of which reflect the significant ecological strain caused by this competition.In this climate of environmental crisis, the idea of incorporating bee products into animal feed emerges as a compelling option. These bee-derived commodities include honey, propolis, pollen, royal jelly, and venom. Aside from their culinary appeal, these products have powerful nutraceutical and medicinal benefits. Consider honey, known for its powerful antibacterial and wound-healing properties and serves as a testament to nature’s pharmacopeia. Propolis, known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, as a natural alternative to traditional antibiotics. Similarly, bee pollen, a real beneficial, is rich in nutrients and has been linked to improved health. In the field of animal husbandry, empirical research demonstrates the transforming potential of bee products as nutritional supplements. Studies show that incorporating them into cattle diets has a wide range of benefits, including improved immunological function, increased weight gain, and improved egg quality in avian species. Furthermore, propolis supplementation in ruminants such as cattle and sheep has been linked to increased digestive efficiency, higher milk production, and lower methane emissions, all of which have ecological benefits. Hence, in the face of increasing environmental pressures and rising protein needs, the careful incorporation of bee products into animal diet emerges as a paradigmatic solution endowed with numerous benefits. By leveraging the natural nutritional potency of these bee-derived chemicals, stakeholders can reconcile the imperatives of food security with the demands of environmental sustainability, establishing a symbiotic balance of human and ecological welfare.

Published: September 2024

Landslide situations remain a significant concern in Nigeria, as they pose a great risk to human lives, property, and the natural environment, particularly in regions with steep slopes, heavy rainfall, and unfavorable human interference, including deforestation and urbanization. Nigeria’s diverse geographical structure, ranging from urban areas such as Lagos and Abuja to rural regions, underscores the importance of accurate predictions for risk management and avoidance techniques. This research utilized remote sensing and GIS assessment to analyze landslide susceptibility in several regions of Nigeria. Data related to terrain, vegetation, soil moisture, and ground deformation were gathered using high-resolution satellite imagery from sources such as SPOT, ASTER, differential synthetic aperture radar interferometry (D-InSAR), and Landsat TM. GIS data layers included DEM, LULC, soil and geological maps, as well as hydrological maps and data. Methods applied in this study include logistic regression, STAT-R, frequency ratio, and the Random Forest tree-based model. The research produced detailed landslide susceptibility maps for various regions in Nigeria and identified significant factors such as slope, elevation, land use, precipitation, and access to transportation facilities. The Random Forest model demonstrated the most robust predictive capability. The integration of remote sensing with GIS was particularly significant, enhancing the precision of predictions and improving the efficacy of planning and management strategies. By incorporating remote sensing, GIS, and various machine learning algorithms, the researchers have developed a reliable tool for landslide risk prediction and management in Nigeria. Future research should focus on improving data quality and enhancing the generalizability of results to other regions.

Authors: Nuriawan Ananda , H. Nuha Hilal , Prabowo Sidik
Published: September 2024

Indonesia is among the nations practicing a democratic system, where the head of state is elected through general elections. During these elections, every citizen possessing a National Identity Card (KTP) holds equal voting rights. Counting votes accurately amidst the vast number of ballots poses a challenge. The ultimate objective is to develop a vote counting implementation using Hadoop, utilizing a form C1 image as input. The numerical data from the C1 form is processed into INT data types employing artificial neural networks (ANN) generated through the Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM), trained with MNIST data. These ANN models are uploaded onto a website for image storage in the database. The website's data is then crawled using Apache Nutch, and the obtained results are processed through Hadoop's MapReduce algorithm. Testing reveals efficient performance, with the recapitulation of results using Apache Nutch and Hadoop employing multimode and fair scheduler scheduling algorithms taking one minute and twenty-five seconds. Conversely, Hadoop configured with a single-node setup and FIFO scheduling algorithm achieves a quicker time of 67 seconds.

A portfolio represents a selection of assets owned by individuals or groups with the goal of generating profit. Stocks are among the various forms of investments available. Investors typically consider two key factors: expected returns and associated risks. Portfolio optimization endeavors to maximize returns while minimizing risks. With the progression of time, portfolio optimization strategies increasingly incorporate return predictions using machine learning techniques. In this study, the Holt-Winter method is employed to forecast stock prices and returns, known for its accuracy in estimating seasonal time series data. Previous research primarily utilized the Mean- Variance method for portfolio optimization, but the outcomes were deemed unsatisfactory. Therefore, this study adopts a novel approach by integrating the Mean-Variance model with forecasting. Performance testing of the optimal portfolio emphasizes sensitivity, aiming for substantial average returns, minimal standard deviation, and a high Sharpe ratio. Comparative analysis with the LQ45 index portfolio reveals that the sensitivity-driven portfolio exhibits superior performance, yielding higher values in terms of average returns, standard deviation, and Sharpe ratio.

The processing of data obtained from a polling system holds significant importance as the results can serve as a reference for addressing community issues. With the escalating use of social media, Indonesia ranks fifth globally in Twitter usage. When dealing with substantial data sets, processing speed becomes a concern, prompting the author to develop a more time-efficient system for handling polling data gathered through social media. Hadoop emerges as a prime candidate for this purpose due to its two main modules: Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) for distributed storage and MapReduce for algorithmic computation. Through experimentation using both the wordcount program with MapReduce on Hadoop and the version without MapReduce, it was observed that MapReduce outperforms the latter in terms of data processing speed. On average, employing MapReduce on Hadoop resulted in a 1.3 times faster data processing rate compared to the method without MapReduce.

Tyrosinase overexpression in humans increases melanin production in the skin, which may have hyperpigmentation-causing effects. In this study, various extracts from the Garcinia lateriflora Blume var. Javanica Boerl, Garcinia fruticosa Lauterb, and Garcinia xanthochymus plants were tested for their ability to inhibit the tyrosinase enzyme. The results showed that the G. fruticosa Lauterb stem bark hexane extract had the highest activity followed succesively by the G. lateriflora Blume var javanica Boerl leaf methanol extract, G xanthochymus mesocarp hexane extract, G. xanthochymus mesocarp methanol extract. The results show that the G. fruticosa Lauterb stem bark hexane extract has the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity (45.61 ± 1.58%) among the four extracts and the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of kojic acid (65.07 0.86%).

Published: September 2024

There might be various and several reasons for the conflicts in Afghanistan, such as foreign political interventions, illiteracy, poverty, the geography of the country, ethnic and linguistic diversity, social injustice, various kinds of corruption, and generally a lack of rule of law. Climate change does not seem to be a direct factor in the conflicts in Afghanistan, but it is one of the main indirect factors in the conflicts. The link between climate change and conflicts in Afghanistan has not been the focus of studies yet, so little literature is found in the area. However, the intersection of climate change and conflict in Afghanistan presents a critical area of study, as environmental stressors exacerbate the already volatile socio-political landscape. Looking at the importance of the link between climate change and unresolved conflicts in Afghanistan, a literature review was done to find out how these two link to each other. Particularly, this paper explores the multifaceted impacts of climate change on Afghanistan's ongoing conflict, analyzing how rising temperatures, unpredictable precipitation, and extreme weather events contribute to resource scarcity and displacement, thereby fueling tensions and violence. Drawing on recent environmental data, conflict analysis, and case studies, the paper argues that climate change acts as a threat multiplier, intensifying competition over natural resources, undermining livelihoods, and complicating peacebuilding efforts. The findings underscore the urgency of integrating climate adaptation strategies into conflict resolution and development programs to foster long-term stability and resilience in Afghanistan. The paper concludes with policy recommendations for national and international stakeholders to address the nexus of climate change and conflict, emphasizing the need for collaborative, cross-sectoral approaches to mitigate risks and capitalize on opportunities for peace.

Published: September 2024

This study proposes a new method to assess the bearing capacity of similar bridges while avoiding the disadvantages of costly static loading tests. First, we present a detailed evaluation of the bearing capacity for a repaired pre-stressed concrete continuous-beam bridge following a ship collision. We have developed a finite element model, modified it, and combined with two other methods to evaluate its bearing capacity. The first method proposed is the bridge design code-based method, where the bearing capacity is assessed using specified design parameters. The second is the field test-based method, where the bearing capacity is evaluated using field tests combined with structural appearance observation. Considering the relative merits of these two methods, a new and improved method for bearing capacity evaluation is proposed and implemented by combining the design code, finite element model, and field loading tests. The innovation and contribution of this paper lie in obtaining modal parameters through a convenient dynamic load test to predict the static behaviour of the bridge structure based on the modified finite element model. Based on the dynamic test results, the static behaviour of the bridge, predicted by the modified finite element analysis, and the appearance test data of the bridge structure, the bearing capacity of the bridge structure is evaluated.
