The Impact of the Abraham Accords on Geopolitical Dynamics of the Middle East
Authors: Rohulia Karyna
Published: February 2024

The Abraham Accords, signed in 2020, have emerged as a watershed moment in the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East, marking a significant shift in regional dynamics. This scientific article provides an in-depth analysis of the Accords’ impact on the Middle East, exploring the multifaceted consequences of this historic realignment. Focusing on the normalization of relations between Israel and several Arab nations, including the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco, the study examines the broader geopolitical implications, with particular attention to the redefinition of regional alliances, economic and technological cooperation, and the nuanced effects on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The article delves into the strategic motivations behind the Accords and their influence on the traditional Arab-Israeli relations, underscoring a paradigm shift from longstanding animosity to a newfound cooperation based on shared interests, particularly in security and economic spheres. It evaluates the economic opportunities catalyzed by the Accords, such as increased trade and joint technological ventures, which promise to foster a new era of prosperity and interdependence in the region.

Furthermore, the analysis addresses the complex implications for the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, assessing the potential for the Accords to reshape the future trajectory of this long-standing conflict. While acknowledging the initial concerns of sidelining the Palestinian issue, the article explores the possibility of these agreements creating new platforms for dialogue and conflict resolution.

The article also contextualizes the Accords within the broader regional and international geopolitical framework, analyzing how this development reflects the changing priorities and strategies of Middle Eastern states in response to regional threats, global economic trends, and the evolving role of external powers. The challenges and prospects for the future of the Abraham Accords are critically examined, considering the sustainability of these agreements amidst the dynamic and often volatile regional environment.

In conclusion, this comprehensive study posits that the Abraham Accords signify a momentous shift in Middle Eastern geopolitics, with potential ramifications that extend beyond the immediate signatories. The Accords herald a new chapter in the region's history, where diplomatic engagement and economic collaboration may pave the way for a more stable and integrated Middle East, albeit with remaining challenges and uncertainties.
Pessimismo hobbesiano ou mecanicismo schopenhaueriano: a construção do indivíduo em Thomas Hobbes e Arthur Schopenhauer
Authors: Costa da Silva Baehr Patricia
Published: February 2024

É deveras episódico termos Arthur Schopenhauer e Thomas Hobbes em uma mesma publicação, e quando isso ocorre, geralmente tem por objetivo explorar suas visões políticas dissonantes. No entanto, este estudo baseia-se na crença de que ambos os filósofos possuem semelhanças significativas em suas teorias, a saber, a criação do indivíduo enquanto ser humano. Schopenhauer e Hobbes possuem, em suas construções, a visão pessimista da natureza humana e, além disso, há semelhanças proeminentes na construção da maquinaria humana, semelhanças essas que em alguns momentos aparentam se fundir. Os objetivos que Hobbes e Schopenhauer tinham ao escreverem suas obras se diferem, porém, o que mostramos nesta exegese é que o pessimismo é um caminho prolífico para a teoria filosófica
Deleuze, a filosofia como experimentação
Authors: Ribeiro Guimarães Vinci Christian Fernando
Published: February 2024

Retomando o famoso prólogo ao livro Diferença e Repetição, no qual Gilles Deleuze pontua se aproximar o tempo no qual não seria possível escrever um livro de filosofia como outrora, procuraremos pensar a evocação deleuziana da necessidade de adotarmos um novo tom e novas regras para o exercício filosófico. Acreditamos que retomar esse apelo do filósofo nos lançaria no coração da concepção deleuziana e deleuzo-guattariana da filosofia como um exercício de experimentação. A fim de perseguir quais tons e regras estariam no horizonte do filósofo francês, buscaremos nos aprofundar nas analogias experimentadas por Deleuze em seu prólogo, ao sugerir que um tratado filosófico deveria soar tanto como uma espécie de romance policial quanto como uma ficção científica. Esse excurso, defendemos, não apenas nos auxiliaria na compreensão deleuziana e deleuzo-guattariana da filosofia como experimentação, como também possibilitaria rascunhar algumas pistas sobre o papel da história da filosofia no coração dessa concepção outra apresentada por Deleuze.
Sou mortal, logo sou: a memória enlutada e a política do luto em Jacques Derrida
Authors: Bernardo Martha
Published: February 2024

Nosso objetivo é apresentar uma leitura sobre a questão do luto na obra de Jacques Derrida. Essa questão intervém desde seus primeiros escritos, num embate com Edmund Husserl até sua obra tardia, em que ressaltaremos o diálogo com Martin Heidegger. Sem pretender esgotar a questão, buscamos investigar: 1) como o luto constitui intimamente, para Derrida, o que se denomina o “humano”, concorrendo para a formação da sua subjetividade, marca de uma etapa na história da vida; 2) os aspectos ético-políticos que atravessam a questão do luto, por meio dos temas da memória e da herança.
Optimization enabled elastic scaling in cloud based on predicted load for resource management
Authors: Trivedi Naimisha Shashikant , Panchal Shailesh D.
Published: February 2024

Cloud computing epitomizes an important invention in the field of Information Technology, which presents users with a way of providing on-demand access to a pool of shared computing resources. A major challenge faced by the cloud system is to assign the exact quantity of resources to the users based on the demand, while meeting the Service Level Agreement (SLA). Elasticity is a major aspect that provides the cloud with the capability of adding and removing resources “on the fly” for handling load variations. However, elastic scaling requires suspension of the application tasks forcibly, while performing resource distribution; thereby Quality of Service (QoS) gets affected. In this research, an elastic scaling approach based on optimization is developed which aims at attaining an improved user experience. Here, load prediction is performed based on various factors, like bandwidth, CPU, and memory. Later, horizontal as well as vertical scaling is performed based on the predicted load using the devised leader Harris honey badger algorithm. The devised optimization enabled elastic scaling is evaluated for its effectiveness based on metrics, such as predicted load error, cost, and resource utilization, and is found to have attained values of 0.0193, 153.581, and 0.3217.

Published: February 2024

BACKGROUND: Caregivers assist patients in treatment based on their care needs and living activities. Very few studies have been conducted specifically on the occupational health and safety of hospital caregivers. OBJECTİVE: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of excessive workload and low back pain among hospital caregivers and to identify potential associated factors. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included caregivers working at Gazi University Hospital. Socio-demographic and working-life characteristics were assessed. The Role Overload Scale was used to determine excessive workload and the Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire was used to evaluate low back pain. RESULTS: The study included 528 participants. A total of 18.7% had work accidents in their department. 49.0% had sharp injuries. 68.9% of the participants performed tasks such as positioning, turning, lifting, or helping patients to walk. 72.2% stood for a long time during the workday. 52.8% thought that they worked under stress. 57.6% had low back pain in the last year and 38.6% in the last month, Significant differences exist in low back pain according to gender, body-mass index, standing for a long time and working under stress. Those who worked at night, had a work accident, positioned patients, stood for a long time, and worked under stress had higher mean scores on the Role Overload Scale. CONCLUSION: Tools should be used to lift and transport patients. In addition to occupational health and safety training, awareness of musculoskeletal risks should be increased. Employee well-being can be improved through exercise and stress reduction techniques.

Published: February 2024

Species distribution modelling (SDM) constitutes a fundamental tool in the domain of conservation biology, offering valuable insights into the ecological requisites of imperilled species. Within this context, habitat suitability assessment assumes a pivotal role in the strategic planning of wildlife conservation and population management initiatives. This study employs the Maxent-LQH model to conduct a comprehensive estimation of habitat appropriateness for the endangered, black-necked crane (Grus nigricollis) within Bhutan. The primary objective was to improve the understanding of the current habitat status of this avian species by leveraging a dataset comprising 23 occurrence records and 10 environmental variables. A regularization multiplier of 3 is judiciously selected through the application of the Akaike information criterion, considering the small sample size. The investigation revealed that distance to settlements (31.7%), NDVI (20.5%), distance to roads (20.2%), and distance to rivers (17.7%) were the principal environmental determinants that significantly influenced black-necked crane habitat suitability. The secondary variables, encompassing aspect, BIO-19, LULC, slope, BIO-15, and BIO-5, collectively exhibited a cumulative contribution rate of 9.9%, indicating a comparatively modest impact on BNC habitat suitability. This study revealed a spatially confined suitable habitat area for black-necked cranes within Bhutan spanning 549 km², representing 1.443% of the nation's total land area. To validate the robustness of the model, AUC statistics were calculated, revealing a commendable accuracy level of 0.98 and indicating the efficiency of evaluating the suitability of the black-necked crane. These findings underscore the pivotal influence of specific environmental determinants on the distribution of this species within Bhutan. This study advocates the judicious incorporation of these insights into conservation and protection strategies, thereby contributing substantively to preservation endeavors aimed at mitigating the threats faced by the endangered BNC.
Bioinformatics Analysis of Disc Large Homolog-4 (DLG-4) As Parameters in Neuroplasticity
Authors: Zulissetiana Eka Febri , Irfannuddin Irfannuddin
Published: February 2024

Disc Large Homolog-4 (DLG-4), also known as Post Synaptic Density 95 (PSD95) is believed to have an important role in the function and organization of the synapse. DLG-4 is the main protein structure at the synapse that is able to bind to various molecules on the surface of the postsynaptic membrane. This review aims to determine the biomolecular characteristics of DLG-4 and the role of DLG-4 as an important parameter in neuroplasticity. Biomolecular characteristic analysis was obtained through various bioinformatics websites namely NCBI, PROTPARAM, TMHMM, PEPTIDE CUTTER, NETNGLYC, TARGETP and KEGG PATHWAY. The DLG-4 gene is located on chromosome 17p13.1 and has 25 exon. The DLG-4 protein consists of 764 amino acids with a molecular weight of 80.47 kDa. DLG-4 has a structure of 3 N-terminal PDZ domains, a Src Homology 3 (SH3) domain and a guanilate kinase-like C-terminal domain. This protein has a stability score of 48.61. The aliphatic index is 85.42. DLG-4 is found inside, outside, and on transmembranes, as determined by THMM. There are 37 enzymes that are predicted to be able to split the DLG-4 protein. The DLG-4 protein shows 3 potential sites of glycosylation of amino acids. The target location of the DLG-4 protein is mostly in other locations (other = 0.6556), secretory pathway (0.3328), and only slightly in mitochondria (0.0116). The DLG-4 protein is strongly associated with the glutamatergic system in postsynaptic neurons. The glutamatergic system is concerned with the molecular mechanism of memory development and cognitive function, long-term potentiation (LTP). These findings support the fact that DLG-4 protein plays a role in neuroplasticity mechanisms in the brain.

Published: February 2024

Objective: This study aims to determine the correlation between clinical as well as laboratory profile changes with the outcome of acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) cases. Materials and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Pediatrics at Jorhat Medical College and Hospital, Assam over a period of 1 year where 49 diagnosed cases of AES in children aged between 1 month and 12 years were enrolled. Results: The study found that fever (100%) and altered sensorium (100%) were the most common clinical presentations in AES cases, followed by seizure (63%), headache (34.7%), vomiting (26.5%), diarrhea (22.4%), etc. Japanese encephalitis (JE) was the most common cause of AES (28.6%), followed by herpes simplex virus (4.1%), pyogenic meningitis (4.1%), and tubercular meningitis (2%), etc. However, the majority of cases (61.2%) were found to have an unknown etiology. Among the 49 cases, 27 (55.1%) recovered without neurological sequelae, 8 (16.8%) had neurological sequelae, and 14 (28.6%) died during the course of treatment. The most common neurological sequelae observed were motor deficit (37.5%), behavioral disorders, aphasia (25% each), and cranial nerve palsy. Glasgow coma scale (GCS) at the time of admission and during the time of hospital stay was found to have a significant (p<0.05) correlation with outcome in AES patients. Conclusion: The study concludes that AES cases commonly present with fever, altered sensorium, seizure, headache, vomiting, and signs of meningeal irritation. JE remains a major known cause of AES in children in this region of India. GCS at the time of admission and during the time of hospital stay were found to have a significant correlation with outcome. The neurological sequelae highlight the need for global attention to combat them save the lives of children.

Authors: Imron  , Duryat  , Irawan Sandy Erggi , Tri Maryono  , Rodiani
Published: February 2024

Mangrove forests form due to vegetative distribution along coastlines with varying growing conditions concerning substrate, freshwater intake, and oceanic currents. These disparities facilitate zoning and subsequent distinct growth patterns. The research objective was to identify the zoning structure of mangrove ecosystems in Lampung Timur Regency, Lampung Province, Indonesia. The degradation of mangrove forests in Lampung Timur Regency was thought to be caused by anthropogenic activities and inappropriate zoning patterns. Concerning data collection, the cluster sampling method was employed, which was selected based on the preliminary study's findings that the mangrove status in the study area exhibits a variety of substrates, freshwater supply, and strong ocean currents. There are five clusters on the study site, with each cluster containing sample plots measuring 10m x 10m. The sampling method employed a striped path starting from the outermost part of the mangrove ecosystem, with the number of plots in each cluster dependent on the thickness of the mangrove vegetation. A regional map and GIS applications were used for mangrove zonation mapping, and the factors influencing the zonation of mangrove ecosystems were analyzed descriptively. The research findings demonstrated that the mangrove ecosystem located in Lampung Timur comprises three distinct zones: the outer zone, the middle zone, and the terrestrial zone

Забезпечення високоякісного перекладу юридичних текстів у сферах міжнародного та порівняльного права є одним з викликів сучасного правового суспільства. Це завдання зумовлене розширенням міжнародних стосунків та перспективами вступу України до ЄС. Саме цим визначається актуальність нашого дослідження, яке ставить на меті аналіз функціонування категорії інтертекстуальності в текстах оригіналів та текстах перекладів законів та законодавчих актів ЄС і України. Дійшли висновку, що категорія інтертекстуальності є базовою категорією в процесі текстової комунікації у сфері міжнародного і порівняльного права. У цій статті розглядаються засоби реалізації категорії інтертекстуальності на експліцитному рівні юридичних текстів українською та англійською мовами. Пряме цитування інших законів, а також посилання на тексти законів на полях, що здійснювалось задля тлумачення законів середньовіччя, вже не є засобом пояснення, який широко використовується в текстах сучасних законів. Відмова від використання цього засобу слугує забезпеченням компресії тексту. Цитування та посилання на інші тексти в тому обсязі, в якому вони є, стало можливим лише протягом двох останніх десятирічь завдяки технічній можливості гіперпосилання. Особливо важливою функцією гіперпосилання є для текстів перекладів юридичних актів та законів, оскільки вони забезпечують тлумачення документів і вносять вагомий внесок в їх розуміння. Одним із поширених засобів реалізації категорії інтертекстуальності в юридичних текстах є внутрішні посилання, тобто посилання на статтю або пункт цього закону, на додаток. Використання гіперпосилань робить весь сучасний процес наукових досліджень інтертекстом, що своєю чергою забезпечує можливість розуміння мови порівняльного права. Засоби реалізації категорії інтертекстуальності забезпечують своєрідний діалог між текстом оригіналу і текстом перекладу. Текст закону мовою оригіналу, текст перекладу та інтерпретація тексту закону реципієнтом створюють єдиний інтер- текст. Засоби реалізації категорії інтертекстуальності здійснюють, своєю чергою, забезпечення ефективності інтерпретації та розуміння текстів законів.

Published: February 2024

O projeto de investigação-ação “Clube das Crianças” desenvolveu-se em um contexto de educação não formal no norte de Portugal, com crianças de 8 a 10 anos, em 2022. A ação integrou o Projeto SMOOTH, financiado pela União Europeia, tendo como objetivo central refletir acerca do potencial da Educação enquanto bem comum para combater as desigualdades em grupos vulnerabilizados, por meio da promoção do diálogo intercultural e intergeracional e do desenvolvimento de habilidades sociais e pessoais para a criação de espaços de cidadania democrática baseados em igualdade, colaboração, compartilhamento e cuidado. O presente artigo explora como essas premissas epistemológicas da Educação enquanto bem comum se alinham a uma perspectiva crítica da infância e a uma visão contemporânea de Educação musical na infância, a fim de compreender as relações sociais que se desenrolam em práticas musicais no contexto de um projeto social. Os resultados apontam para a importância da co-construção de espaços e tempos em que as crianças sejam sujeitos ativos em suas práticas musicais nesse cenário. Discutimos aspectos de um trabalho musical criativo – a troca, a criação coletiva, a partilha aberta, a diversidade e a liberdade – e a sua associação com os valores da Educação enquanto bem comum – uma prática social mais livre, igualitária, aberta, diversa, justa e colaborativa – para sustentar que há uma convergência entre estas teorias e práticas. Isso permite afirmar que os pressupostos da Educação enquanto bem comum oferecem um potencial contributo para a compreensão da Educação musical em projetos sociais.

Published: February 2024

Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) play a crucial role in removing harmful particles in various industries. Ongoing studies continuously strive to improve their performance and efficiency, leveraging the inherent advantages of ESPs. Researchers are exploring various types of collecting and discharge electrodes to achieve this. This study specifically focuses on comparing two types of collecting electrodes, Semicircular Corrugated Plates (SCPs) and inverted Semicircular Corrugated Plates (InvSCPs), against Flat Plates (FPs) as a reference case. Three distinct forms of ESPs were simulated, and the SCP and InvSCP designs were evaluated against the FPs, specifically assessing the impact of modifying the collecting electrode design on key electrostatic precipitator characteristics, such as electrical field distribution, space charge density distribution, particle trajectories, and particle collection efficiency. Notably, the study found that using SCP resulted in the highest particle collection efficiency compared to InvSCP and FP for the same range of particles.
