Density Based Traffic Management System for Smart Cities
Authors: SM Priyanka , GK Sharath , Ganesh V. , AV Varun
Published: June 2023

In most cities throughout the world, traffic congestion is a serious issue that has turned into a nightmare for the locals. It is brought on by signal delay, improper traffic signal timing, etc. Traffic does not affect the hard-coded traffic light delay, which is independent of it. Consequently, there is an increasing need for systematic quick automatic systems to optimise traffic control. This essay is intended to Upon detecting the level of traffic at the intersection, the signal time adjusts automatically. This work makes use of a Raspberry Pi microcontroller. Modern technology is being used to optimise traffic flow in cities, including the density-based traffic management system for smart cities. This technology uses a variety of sensors and cameras to gather real-time traffic information that is then analysed to spot congested regions and forecast future traffic trends. This data is used by the system to dynamically change traffic signal timings, redirect traffic to less crowded routes, and give drivers and pedestrians real-time information via mobile apps and electronic signage. This system offers a more effective, safe, and sustainable solution to managing urban traffic by utilising cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the Internet of Things (IoT). This system decreases travel times and carbon emissions while enhancing the quality of life for city dwellers.
Investigation of Solid Waste Collectors with Economic and Social Dimensions
Authors: KOCA Mehmet
Published: June 2023

Solid waste collectors play a key role in collecting domestic waste and recycling it. The negativities in the working environment and conditions of those who try to make a living by collecting solid waste affect their position in the social context. For this reason, in this study, the waste collection experiences of the actors in the solid waste collection sector were discussed. The economic and social disadvantages associated with their work were tried to be understood. In this qualitative study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 participants (one of whom owns a waste sorting facility and two of whom are facility employees) who make a living by collecting solid waste in Ordu, Turkey. The sampling of the interviews was determined by sequential sampling. But there were also those who were determined by a little snowball sampling. The data collected through interviews were analyzed using descriptive and content analysis techniques. The findings of the study revealed the experiences of solid waste collectors and the challenges they face in the sector with their economic and social dimensions. In this way, ideas were obtained about the working conditions of solid waste collectors and their place in working life, migration experiences, poverty levels and stigma situations. It also allows policymakers to gain insight into improvements to waste collectors' working conditions and social status.

Governmental Capacity and Statehood in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
Authors: Vladimirovna Anfilova Natalia
Published: June 2023

During the process of achievement of autonomy through peaceful negotiation, started in the 1970s, such political formation as the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) was established. Nevertheless, this process was accompanied by inner disturbances: clashes, popular unrest and terrorist attacks. The politically active part of the Moro people was divided into groups consisted of supporters of various measures - from moderately liberal to extremely radical. Although nowadays the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) 1 and Abu Sayyaf 2 represent diametrically opposed positions, since MNLF is a Philippine government‘s ally, while Abu Sayyaf is a terroristic group, they originated from common source and share the discontent around the existing order towards the Moro people in the Philippines. In spite of the fact that autonomy of ARMM was extended, the significant part of its Moro population is still seeking for an ultimate separation from the Philippines. On the one hand, decentralization and autonomy includes a number of benefits, e.g. , ―increased public sector efficiency, accountability, and effectiveness, increased citizen participation, local ownership, and durable peace‖ 3. On the other hand, an abrupt separation can lead to institutional disarray, economic decline, deterioration of social problems, and even anarchy, unless the separated territory is prepared to the self-government. In that context ―being prepared‖ implies conforming the criteria of the state (or approaching to them) and having corresponding own institutions to manage the political formation self-sufficiently. Depending on the approach of understanding of the state, the last condition can be included in its criteria.

Published: June 2023

Pembahasan tentang iddah sudah ada dan dikenal sejak zaman pra Islam. Kemudian setelah masuk Islam, iddah dilanjutkan karena bermanfaat bagi kelangsungan hidup istri dan suami. Kemudian secara perlahan ajaran Islam datang melakukan perubahan yang cukup mendasar, Islam datang dengan mencari adanya hak-hak perempuan terkait Iddah. Iddah bagi laki-laki (syibhul 'iddah) menjadi fokus utama dalam pembahasan tulisan ini. Sedangkan dalam konsep maqashid al-syariah, penulis berpendapat bahwa penerapan syibhul 'iddah merupakan kewajiban yang harus dijaga keberadaannya, berdasarkan kemaslahatan yang melatarbelakangi penetapannya dalam konsep kesetaraan dan perlindungan gender. hak perempuan. Penerapan iddah bagi laki-laki tidak berarti melanggar dan menciptakan hukum Islam yang baru. Padahal, pelaksanaan iddah bagi laki-laki ditujukan pada semangat pelaksanaan syariat Islam yang mempertimbangkan aspek kemaslahatan, khususnya dalam rangka memelihara keturunan (hifzh al nasl).
Investigating career pathing and retention of agents at WNS Global Services
Authors:   , Manjoo Noorain
Published: June 2023

This research was carried out to investigate the existence of career pathing linked to staff retention at WNS Global Services. Furthermore, the study aimed to highlight any shortfalls in the current career pathing and staff retention policies and procedures at WNS and subsequently provide recommendations for improvement. The research design adopted a quantitative paradigm. A pre-coded closed-ended questionnaire using a 5-point Likert scale was sent to the sample (234) identified from the target population of 586 call centre staff across the Durban and Port Elizabeth WNS Global sites. Two hundred and four of the 234 sample respondents returned the questionnaire. However, it was discovered that certain respondents failed to answer all of the questions and were therefore omitted from the analysis. In total 198 completed questionnaires were returned which provided a response rate of 85%. The SPSS version 27 of Windows was used to test the variables that formulated the study. There were a number of noteworthy findings as a result of the empirical analysis of data. The descriptive analysis of the quantitative methods was presented using tables and graphs. Factor analysis, correlation analysis and Pearson’s chi-square were utilised to calculate the statistical analysis. Additionally, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin and Bartlett’s test of sphericity were used to determine the factorability of an inter-correlation matrix. The correlation analysis of the two variables indicated that the correlation between employees taking steps in the near future to look for another job, and the perception that career pathing processes at WNS are effective, was -0.171 (Correlation Analysis 5). This is indicative that ineffective career pathing processes are highly likely to influence an employee’s decision to seek alternate work opportunities. The findings of the study show that some elements of staff retention are practised at WNS Global Services. However, one could conclude that it is not fully implemented in a manner that has maximum impact on staff. Furthermore, career pathing as a concept is not fully established at WNS Global Services. One of the recommendations arising from this study is that career pathing strategies and policies to improve staff retention should be implemented.
Residential satisfaction of informal settlement dwellers relocated to integrated human settlements : the case of Cornubia
Authors:   , Gangapersad Sandhya
Published: June 2023

The purpose of this study was to establish the impact on the residential satisfaction of relocating informal settlement dwellers to greenfield housing projects. The study was conducted in the community of Cornubia within the eThekwini Municipality. The Cornubia Integrated Human Settlement Project is one of the initiatives taken to assist with the current challenge of informal settlements. Unlike other greenfield projects, the Cornubia development looks at creating a “city within a city” by providing various mixed-use activities to service the beneficiaries and create economic opportunities, thus eliminating common complications associated with informal settlement relocation projects. A case study methodology was used to evaluate the level of residential satisfaction achieved by beneficiaries of the project – which included dwellers from transit camps and informal settlements, such as Blackburn, Stonebridge, and Ridgeview. The allocation of subsidised units began in late November 2013. A structured questionnaire was conducted with the identified sample of the study, of which there were 127 respondents. Each component was measured against the level of residential satisfaction achieved in order to obtain a conclusion. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with municipal officials who were involved in the project. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the findings are that a more holistic and integrated approach needs to be enforced – especially with regard to service delivery and development timeframes. The quality of houses still needs to be improved considerably. Public awareness needs to be given more attention as not many residents were aware of their surroundings. Overall, residents were merely satisfied and grateful to have a roof above their heads
Coordinated control of conventional power sources and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles for a hybrid power system
Authors:   , Adbul-Kader Mohammed Ozayr
Published: June 2023

Globally, the requirement for renewable and clean energy technologies is becoming vastly popular. With the high implementation of solar and wind energy systems, together with plugin hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) aggregators, energy costs can be minimised, greenhouse gas emissions decrease, and overall maintenance becomes reduced. The constant increase of load demand is becoming a challenge for the current power systems, with difficulties including stability concerns and excessive regulations by the government. Due to irradiance and wind speed fluctuations, the solar and wind energy system’s non-linearity affects the existing power system stability. The growth of the electric vehicle industry has also shed new light on potential auxiliary services that can be provided, as and when required, to the power system. Hence, this research examines the potential control strategies that are required to maintain the system in steady-state conditions after disturbances that occur with higher penetration of renewable energy systems (RESs) and PHEVs. The case study models a isolated two-area thermal type power system that is interconnected through an AC tie-line. Three scenarios are modelled, simulated and analysed. The first scenario models a isolated thermal power system with PHEVs with two areas which utilises a fractional order proportional integral derivative (FOPID) controller in each area. The resulting model is analysed to see the effects of PHEVs coupled with FOPID on the power system. The second scenario models a isolated two-area thermal power system with RES and utilises a fuzzy type-2 (FT2) FOPID controller in each area. The RES penetration istested for its non-linearity effect on the isolated power system, and the error is reduced by an advanced controller that uses artificial intelligence techniques. The third scenario is modelled as an isolated two-area thermal power system with PHEVs and RES coupled with neural network predictive controller (NNPC) in each area. The three scenarios are simulated in MATLAB/Simulink with results displayed graphically and numerically. The results show that the integration of PHEVs for load and/or storage in the multi-area power system, and the proposed control methods for each scenario, have the best dynamic response with the least error, no oscillations and the fastest response to steady state condition

Abstract. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from combustion sources are uncertain in many places across the globe. Satellites have the ability to detect and quantify emissions from large CO2 point sources, including coal-fired power plants. In this study, we tasked the PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa (PRISMA) satellite imaging spectrometer and the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-3 (OCO-3) instrument onboard the International Space Station at over 30 coal-fired power plants routinely between 2021–2022. CO2 plumes were detected in 50 % of acquired PRISMA scenes, which is consistent with the combined influence of viewing parameters on detection (solar illumination, surface reflectance) and unknown factors (like daily operational status). We compare satellite-derived emission rates to in situ stack emission observations and find average agreement to within 27 % for PRISMA and 30 % for OCO-3, though more observations are needed to robustly characterize the error. We highlight two examples of fusing PRISMA with OCO-2 and OCO-3 observations in South Africa and India. For India, we acquired PRISMA and OCO-3 observations on the same day and use the high spatial resolution capability of PRISMA (30 m spatial/pixel resolution) to partition relative contributions of two distinct emitting power plants to the net emission. Though an encouraging start, two years of tasking these satellites did not produce sufficient observations to estimate annual average emission rates within low (<15 %) uncertainties. However, as the constellation of CO2-observing satellites is poised to significantly improve in the coming decade, this study offers an approach to leverage multiple observation platforms to better understand large anthropogenic emission sources.

Abstract. Dust emission refers to the spatial displacement process of soil particles with the influence of wind. The quantitative and accurate description of dust emission is the basis of dust simulation in the modeling. The previous studies always employed static land cover in the numerical models, ignoring dynamic variations in the surface bareness and leading to large uncertainties in the dust simulation. We build six sets of dynamic dust sources functions, which shows a pronounced monthly and annual variability with the influence of seasonal change. Compared that in July, the dynamic dust source in March shows an expanding pattern to the edge of the deserts. Moreover, the dust source function in the Taklimakan Desert and Gobi Desert decrease at an annual rate of 2.42 × 10-4 and 3.06 × 10-4. The Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled to Chemistry (WRF-Chem) coupled with dynamic dust sources can effectively reproduce the spatiotemporal distribution of aerosol within satellite and ground-based observations. Our results show that the surface bareness and topographic characteristics jointly control the spatial distribution and value of dynamic dust sources. Further, the dynamic change of dust source further affects the dust emission and dust cycle. This study highlights the importance of surface bareness and the topographic characteristics on the dynamic dust source, and effectively improves dust cycle simulation over East Asia.
Potential Characterization of Bush Mango Oil for Application in Transformer Insulation
Authors: Ahmed Usman Omeiza , Mohammed Yekini Suberu , Audu Nasiru
Published: June 2023

In recent times, the suitability of some oils from edible fruits as a replacement for mineral oils used in transformers has been proven in different literature. The use of edible oils as transformer insulation fluid gives rise to the concept of green insulation in transformers. Research in the use of edible oil in the production of transformer oil has been one of the major researches in high voltage engineering. The existence of paucity of knowledge on the use of bush mango oil as dielectric fluid in transformers led to the idea of this research work. Therefore, this study focuses on the investigation of the suitability of using Irvingia Gabonensis Oil (IGO) for insulation in power transformers. From the series of analyses conducted, it has been established that the Irvingia Gabonensis (Bush Mango) oil is not suitable for transformer insulation oil. This is because the biobased green oil produced presented characteristics that are not suitable to match the standards recommended by the International Electrochemical Commission (IEC) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).

While children are gaining the ability to think abstractly and make logic, this needs to be supported by education. Because children who maintain this healthy development can design things that may happen in the future. Unlike young children, who are usually dealing with the present, adolescents are interested in the future. His thoughts are no longer limited to the concrete perception of the present reality. Societies can continue their existence in a peaceful and safe way with individuals who are aware of their responsibility, educated and aware of their responsibility. Individuals who cannot realize their responsibility, are thoughtless and pursue simple pleasures, even live their daily lives with problems. Individuals who will contribute to the development of the country, recognize personal and social problems and take a role in solving these problems may have the hypocrisy to reach productive, efficient, healthy, happy and successful solutions. Existentialist philosophy adopts the approach that these qualities can be possible by raising oneself, wanting to have these qualities in oneself, and striving along this path, rather than by genetic and environmental factors. The contribution of the media to children's education is a well-known fact. In today's world, education as a phenomenon that does not need age, place or time can take place anytime and anywhere. The level of technology has undoubtedly affected education as well. Unknowingly or knowingly, many educational elements enter our lives and educate us. Changing technology has made informal education stronger and more widespread. Informal education occurs spontaneously in life. It is not planned and programmed. Therefore, it is much more difficult to control or filter informal education in terms of harm or benefit. It is an informal education for a child to learn bad words from a friend on the street. The education received by the child in the family has a more informal feature. Mom and dad are the child's leaders, role models. What they do is also the right thing for the child and it should be done. Key Words: Media Tools, Child Development, Child Education

Authors: TARLA Turgay
Published: June 2023

In the formation of sovereignty of states, there are three powers, namely legislative, executive and judicial. The positioning of these three forces and the creation of parliamentary, presidential and semi-presidential government systems, known as democratic government systems, are among the important subjects of political science. The way to serve its citizens, which is one of the reasons for the existence of a state, is through public policies. Government systems are highly effective and decisive in the public policy process as well as in all areas of countries. Demands for a change in the government system, which have been going on for many years in Turkey, aimed to ensure political stability by eliminating the excessive dependence of the executive on the legislature brought by the parliamentary government system and the failures of the multi-part governments in the executive. With the official implementation of the Presidential Government System in Turkey as of 2018, the administrative structure of the executive was established with the Presidential Decree No. 1 on the Presidency Organization. The educational system within the process of education policies, the organizational structure, duties and powers of the Presidential Education and Training Policies Board and the Ministry of National Education in the context of the executive power are regulated in this Decree. In the process of education policies, the Presidency Education and Training Policies Board as the decision maker and the Ministry of National Education as the policy implementer have their presence as policy actors in the Presidential Government System. In this study, the effects and roles of the Presidential Education and Training Policies Board, which has the same duties and powers as the National Education Council, which is not included in the Decree on the Presidential Organization, in policy formulation and implementation are evaluated. In this study, which aims to reveal the roles of the Presidential Education and Training Policy Board and the Ministry of National Education in the policy process, the "document review" method was used. Keywords: Presidential Government System, Public Administration, Public Policies, Education Policies, Education and Training Policy Board, Ministry of National Education, National Education Council.

Galenosfera w liturgii
Authors: Bartocha Waldemar
Published: June 2023

The publications of the late Bishop Adam Lepa (1939–2022) deal with the topic of the galenosphere as an environment of silence and its role in life and in the process of human education. A special and specific form of the galenosphere are those environments of silence that concern the sacrum. In this context, it is possible to speak of the importance of silence obligatory during the celebration of liturgy. The aim of the study is to show the nature and role of the galenosphere characteristic of the liturgy. Starting from an explanation of the concept of the galenosphere, the author of the study then goes on to show the close relationship that develops between silence and mystery on the basis of the analysis of the writings of Odo Casel (1886–1948), a Benedictine monk from the Abbey of Maria Lach in the Rhineland, founder of the mystery theory in sacramentology and an outstanding theologian of the liturgy. In Odo Casel’s optics, silence is a ritual form of personal participation in Christ’s action, which is realised on the sacramental plane, and not merely an expression of subjective piety. The aim of liturgical silence is therefore to pursue the mystery communion with the Logos. The next section of the paper, based on an analysis of the General Introduction to the Roman Missal, presents the location of moments of silence in the structure of the Eucharistic celebration, their theological and liturgical justification and their normative character. The final section of the article is devoted to the typology of liturgical silence. It discusses its following types: reflective, internalizing, meditative and adorative silence. It concludes by pointing out pastoral aspects related to the great importance of silence in the process of implementing the conciliar principle of participatio actuosa. Liturgical silence cannot be identified with “an inner haven in which to hide oneself in some sort of intimate isolation”, but is “a symbol of the presence and action of the Holy Spirit” (Pope Francis, Apostolic Letter Desiderio desideravi, no. 52). In this perspective of the pneumatological significance of moments of silence in liturgical celebrations, the demand to educate clergy and lay faithful to perform the symbolic gesture of silence with great care is particularly relevant from the point of view of liturgical formation.

This study is conducted to model the CGPA and its associated factors of undergraduate students of Riphah International University Malakand Campus Chakdara Dir lower, Pakistan.  The stratified random sampling method is used to identify the students from population. The academic departments are considered as strata.  One hundred and eight undergraduate students are selected for taking information from the University.  Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) Model is used for modelling the CGPA and its associated factors. The MLR model shows that SSC obtained marks, parents’ education, parents’ support and attention in classes is significantly related with obtained CGPA of the students. In terms of policy recommendations, the results of this study present several policies for teachers, parents and administration.  Both teachers and administration should focus on attention of students in class. Teachers should prepare interesting and informative lecture that students remain attentive in class. While administration should ensure standard class rooms consist of necessary facilities. Parents should support their children morally, financially and every aspect of life.  Teacher and University administration should focus on those students who have illiterate parents. They should play role to guide the students more as their parents is illiterate. Finally, parents should ensure high marks of their children in previous classes that they can perform well in university. This study can be extended to other universities with large sample sizes. Other factors like teacher, environment and administration role can be consider for future study.
