Authors: Vlasova О. , Sekun M. , Zatserkliana M.
Published: January 2022

Goal. Ecological and toxicological substantiation of improving the chemical protection of agricultural crops and perennial plantations from harmful arthropods based on the updated assortment of insectoacaricides, the properties of chemicals and the characteristics of harmful insect and mite species in the technology of growing strategic crops.

Methods. The sensitivity of phytophages was investigated on natural populations collectedё on crops of certain crops and determined by various methods of poisoning adopted in toxicology. The coefficient of selectivity of the insecticide in the phytophage — entomophage system was calculated by the ratio CK50 , % a.v. for phytophage to SC50 , % a.v. for an entomophage. The effect of urea on the properties of working solutions of chemical and microbiological preparations was studied in their mixture using special techniques.

Results. Studies have shown different susceptibility of natural arthropod populations to modern insecticides, which have different selective effects on entomophages. The selectivity factor ranged from 15 to 560. Improved anti-resistance system to protect crops from harmful arthropods. The information on the possibilities of joint application of insecticides of different nature with Urea in a single technological process is generalized, which leads to a significant reduction in the evaporation of drops of solution from the treated surface.

Conclusions. Expansion of the range of pesticides, especially those with a different mechanism of toxic action, makes it possible to prevent or slow down the development of resistance in arthropods to insecticides. An improved anti-resistance system for protecting agricultural crops from harmful arthropods provides a decrease in the toxic load on the agrocenosis and a reversal of resistance to the initial parameters. Urea is an active anti-evaporation agent for working solutions of insecticides of various nature.

Published: January 2022

In the 21st century, the business has become a digital technology-driven system that can hugely impact consumer behavior and labor productivity. The use of the Internet in the new information age is a visible example of globalization. Electronic platforms offer continuous information dissemination, interactive communication with users, and digital systems for conducting transactions in the modern economy. In the context of the digital revolution, along with the changes made to improve services, the electronic transformation of banks has also become necessary, as modern technologies can increase the productivity, permanence, and transparency of the use of information. The paper identifies the key features of digital marketing that make companies successful in the banking sector. The use of digital channels in the financial industry is growing day by day and, regardless of the level of development of countries, is characterized by a growing trend everywhere. The article analyzes digital banking marketing strategies and opportunities that are indispensable conditions for attracting customers in a changing business environment. The paper highlights the role of social media in shaping individual messaging in the banking industry and creating a product tailored to the target audience. Based on secondary data analysis, the focus is on the role of mobile marketing in digital banking marketing. It is noted that mobile marketing simplifies the implementation of banking operations for customers. The article highlights the importance of switching to digital services in the banking industry during the COVID-19 pandemic, indicators of digital channel usage, customer engagement in mobile banking, and forecasts for the future. It has been shown that in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the key issue for banks is to identify consumer confidence-building indicators. The paper presents the latest statistics that have reflected on the underlying characteristics of consumer behavior from the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic to the present day. After analyzing the secondary data, the article found that the active use of smartphones has increased the importance of online advertising, which will continue in the future. With this in mind, the key recommendations that financial companies need to follow to succeed and optimize their budgets are precisely in the direction of popular digital platforms. One of the most important issues of the paper is the increased consumption of cryptocurrency in the world, which is due to its sharp increase in popularity among users. Based on the above, the article shows that if technology companies expand the use of digital currency, the forms of physical services of banks will become obsolete, and the only way to popularize banking products will remain digital marketing. Keywords: Digital Marketing, Banking Marketing, Mobile Banking, COVID-19 Pandemic.

Representation of Weierstrass integral via Poisson integrals
Authors: Shutovskyi Arsen , Sakhnyuk Vasyl
Published: January 2022

In our research, we have presented a second-order linear partial differential equation in polar coordinates. Considering this differential equation on the unit disk, we have obtained a one-dimensional heat equation. It is well-known that the heat equation can be solved taking into account the boundary condition for the general solution on the unit circle. In our paper, the boundary-value problem is solved using the well-known method called the separation of variables. As a result, the general solution to the boundary-value problem is presented in terms of the Fourier series. Then the expressions for the Fourier coefficients are used to transform the Fourier series expansion for the general solution to the boundary-value problem into the so-called Weierstrass integral, which is represented via the so-called Weierstrass kernel. A representation of the Weierstrass kernel via the infinite geometric series is derived by a way allowing a complicated function to be parameterized via a simplified function. The derivation of the corresponding parametrization is based on two well-known integrals. As a result, a complicated function of the natural argument is represented in the form of a double integral that contains a simplified function of the same natural argument. So, the double-integral representation of the Weierstrass kernel has been derived. To obtain this result, the integral representation of the so-called Dirac delta function is taken into account. The expression found for the Weierstrass kernel is substituted into the expression for the Weierstrass integral. As a result, it was found that the Weierstrass integral can be considered a double-integral that contains the Poisson and conjugate Poisson integrals.
Performance Evaluation of VoIP Codecs over Network Coding in Wireless Mesh Networks
Authors: Pertovt Erik , Alic Kemal , Švigelj Aleš , Mohorcic Mihael
Published: January 2022

Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) is used for transmitting voice signals in a packet-switched Internet protocol (IP) networks in real time. For transmitting voice over a wireless mesh networks (WMNs), the analog voice signal has to be digitalized, encoded, and packetized. Codecs based on different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements are used. One of the main QoS requirements is that packets are transmitted through the network in real time; one-way transmission time or End-to-End (ETE) packet delay, and packet delay variation or jitter have to be lower than thresholds. ETE delay depends on various parameters; among them is also network delay. Various mechanisms are used to lower the network delay in WMNs. A promising mechanism, for improving the performance of streaming services such as the case also in VoIP, is network coding. In this paper, we evaluate the benefits of using wireless network coding for VoIP in WMNs. Network coding procedure in combination with various VoIP codecs is used to observe the impact on network delay and jitter of the VoIP application. The simulation results show that network coding can decrease network delay and jitter. Moreover, results show that network coding benefits are codec dependent.

Published: January 2022

Dynamic CMOS based transistor level designs of incrementer/decrementer circuit is presented in this work. The design of a new 8-bit decision module is first described. This is followed by elucidation of an original cascading architecture to realize larger size incrementer/decrementer circuits. From SPICE simulations corresponding to a 0.25μm CMOS process technology, it is inferred that an 8-bit incrementer/decrementer embedding the new decision module macro dissipates 48% less power for incrementing and 30% less power for decrementing than the one incorporating a conventional macro. Further, 16- bit and 32-bit incrementers/decrementers constructed using the proposed cascade consume 21% and 23% reduced average power for increment and decrement operations respectively than their conventional counterparts.

Critical analysis of the challenges of science in Islamic education in the 4.0 era, the goal is to realize superior knowledge in Islamic education, especially in the era of disruption (4.0), so that in this study etymologically it is necessary to uncover and explore the views of the reformers. Islam in responding to challenges in Islamic education in the 4.0 era. This research concludes that in realizing superior knowledge in Islamic education, especially in the era of disruption (4.0), the solution is, the knowledge needs to be adapted to the current developments, this is because science is 1) unraveling, 2) assist (supporters), in realizing the development of superior Islamic Education through the arguments contained in the Qur'an and Hadith. The real example is the establishment of formal schools, from elementary school (elementary school) to Islamic boarding school-based universities that exist in Indonesia. In addition, in order to develop superior science, it can be done through an alternative paradigm of integralism, which is integrated through religious sciences with non-religious sciences which can be done by Islamic boarding school-based institutions. As a result, the relevance of the views of Islamic reformers to the challenges of science in Islamic education in Era 4.0 is relevant, where this can be implemented through the development of superior Islamic education through the arguments contained in the Qur'an and Hadith. In addition, in forming a complete generation and competitive superior human beings, the concept of Islam demands to always think, be innovative, have character, be independent, and religious in facing Era 4.0, where humans are required to be fast, precise, effective and efficient in carrying out life activities.

This study uses Chernoff faces to model the responses of students, faculty, and administration staff of a teacher education institution in Manila, Philippines, to the implementation of an Outcomes-Based Teacher Education Curriculum (OBTEC) trimester scheme. Chernoff faces provide a valuable representation to model responses because people are used to studying and reacting to faces. This study used a quantitative research method by analyzing cross-sectional data from the study of the OBTEC trimester scheme. A total of 322 participants were selected through convenience sampling and given a 15-item survey in which possible responses ranged from 1 (strongly disagree) to 6 (strongly agree). The administrators were found to give a generally favorable rating (overall mean = 4.56 agree; overall SD = 0.45) to the OBTEC trimester scheme. The statements most highly rated by the administrators pertain to the success of OBTEC in integrating pedagogical content knowledge training with outcomes-based education, preparation of the students for the teaching profession, and consistency with the K to 12 curriculum. These responses are characterized by the structure of the face, the width of the mouth, and the height of the face, respectively. The most negative aspects of the OBTEC trimester scheme, according to the students, are characterized by hair height, nose width, and a hair style of thin hair that points downward. Chernoff faces were found to be a simple, yet powerful tool to model responses in the evaluation of the OBTEC trimester scheme.

Agriculture is one of the oldest and certainly most important professions in history of humankind. Agriculture itself is embedded deep within our foundation of country. Due to ever growing demand and growth of technology, it is possible to help farmers to boost their production via some means of current technology that is may be via robotics. Weeding and harvesting in particular area due to large land side requires repetition of monotonous task. It does not help in resulting much efficiently for weeding i.e. (using excessive herbicide and margin for human error). There is also a lack of manpower noticeable in agriculture sector. To detect and remove weed from other crops is essential task for the farmers. Hence, the aim of the proposed system is to detect weed from the other crops in the images captured by digital camera. This system uses an object detection technique by Convolutional Neural Network. The proposed system is very helpful in agriculture area
SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern and Their Properties
Authors: SİRAJ MOHAMMED Nejat
Published: January 2022

Since its first detection in December 2019, SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in the morbibidity of 174 million and mortality of 3.74 million people. As a typical Ribo nucleic acid virus, SARS-CoV-2 undergoes genomic changes during its replication to maintain its evolutionary adaptation. Continous mutation has led into the emergence of numerous variants. Currently, the strains distinguished as the ‘Variants of Concern’ are the B.1.1.7 lineage (The United Kingdom variant) , B.1.351 (The South African variant), B.1.1.248/B1.1.28/P1(Brazilian Variant) , B.1.427/B.1.429 lineage (The Californian variant) and B.1.617.2 lineage (Indian variant). These variants impose a huge concern due to their properties of higher transmission and evasion of the immune system. The continuous emergence of such variants can be contained by vaccinating the population to reduce the circulation of the virus and by maintaining the major protective measures against the disease.
Carga tributaria: ¿qué tan amplia es la brecha entre Chile y la OCDE?
Authors: Larraín Bascuñán Felipe , Perelló Pérez Óscar
Published: January 2022

Este artículo estima la brecha tributaria entre Chile y la OCDE sin considerar las contribuciones de seguridad social. Nuestro análisis controla por nivel de ingreso y estructura poblacional. El ingreso per cápita de Chile es la mitad que el promedio de la OCDE, mientras que su tasa de dependencia laboral es la tercera más baja de este grupo. Los resultados sugieren que estas variables son relevantes. La brecha tributaria, neta de contribuciones de seguridad social pero sin controles adicionales, se ubica en torno a cinco puntos del PIB. Esta disminuye a tres puntos del PIB cuando se controla por nivel de ingreso, y es cercana a dos puntos del PIB al incorporar la estructura poblacional. Así, la brecha persiste pero es inferior al controlar por factores estructurales. Nuestras estimaciones representan la brecha de Chile con la OCDE en la actualidad, sin perjuicio de que se requieran ajustes adicionales a medida que Chile converge a niveles OCDE en términos de ingreso y estructura poblacional.

Depuis le milieu des années 2000, la réforme de l’évaluation et du financement de la recherche et la mise en place d’agences dédiées à son gouvernement ont souvent été analysées comme une remise en cause de la place des scientifiques dans le pilotage des politiques de recherche. Cet article montre pour sa part que les transformations contemporaines de la participation des membres de la profession académique aux politiques scientifiques s’enracinent dans une histoire longue, qui débute dès les années 1960. En s’appuyant sur le cas de la biomédecine, il étudie, sur une soixantaine d’années, le triple processus d’expansion, de division du travail et de spécialisation des rôles qui caractérise le gouvernement de la recherche dans ce domaine scientifique. L’analyse socio-historique permet d’expliquer le passage du gouvernement des patrons à celui d’ex-pairs en reliant les évolutions morphologiques du réseau formé par celles et ceux qui gouvernent la science aux réformes successives des politiques scientifiques.
State bounding for time-delay impulsive and switching genetic regulatory networks with exogenous disturbance
Authors: Yan Jiayuan , Zhang Ding-Xue , Hu Bin , Guan Zhi-Hong , Cheng Xin-Ming
Published: January 2022

This paper focuses on the state bounding problem for the time-delay impulsive and switching genetic regulatory networks (ISGRNs) with exogenous disturbances. Firstly, a sufficient criterion for the state bounding is obtained such that all the trajectories of ISGRNs under consideration converge exponentially into a sphere on the basis of an average dwell time (ADT) switching. Besides, globally exponential stability conditions for the considered system are further stated when the exogenous disturbance vanishes. As a special case, the equivalent state bounding criteria are established by using the properties of some special matrices when there exist no impulses at the switching instants in ISGRNs. Finally, an illustrating example is given to demonstrate the derived results. Compared with the existing literatures, the considered genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) have more general structure and the approach adopted in the present paper is more simple than Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) approach.

Global hypocoercivity of kinetic Fokker-Planck-Alignment equations
Authors: Shvydkoy Roman
Published: January 2022

In this note we establish hypocoercivity and exponential relaxation to the Maxwellian for a class of kinetic Fokker-Planck-Alignment equations arising in the studies of collective behavior. Unlike previously known results in this direction that focus on convergence near Maxwellian, our result is global for hydrodynamically dense flocks, which has several consequences. In particular, if communication is long-range, the convergence is unconditional. If communication is local then all nearly aligned flocks quantified by smallness of the Fisher information relax to the Maxwellian. In the latter case the class of initial data is stable under the vanishing noise limit, i.e. it reduces to a non-trivial and natural class of traveling wave solutions to the noiseless Vlasov-Alignment equation.

The main novelty in our approach is the adaptation of a mollified Favre filtration of the macroscopic momentum into the communication protocol. Such filtration has been used previously in large eddy simulations of compressible turbulence and its new variant appeared in the proof of the Onsager conjecture for inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes system. A rigorous treatment of well-posedness for smooth solutions is provided. Lastly, we prove that in the limit of strong noise and local alignment solutions to the Fokker-Planck-Alignment equation Maxwellialize to solutions of the macroscopic hydrodynamic system with the isothermal pressure.

Composite slabs with steel deck combine the load-bearing resistance of the steel deck and rebar with the compressive resistance of the concrete (components). Unprotected composite slabs may be exposed to natural fire conditions from below, and steel reduces its load-bearing capacity during the heating stage. In short fire events, with limited deformations, the composite slabs can recover the load-bearing capacity during the cooling stage. This research presents the validation of the numerical model and the development of a parametric study, to evaluate the load-bearing capacity during the fire event. This method includes a time step procedure, based on the average temperature calculation for each component, including the reduction coefficients applied to the design strength of each material. A new proposal is also presented to evaluate the residual load-bearing capacity. In some circumstances, the residual load-bearing can be reduced by more than 20%. The results showed that the highest variation in the load-bearing resistance of composite slabs occurs when the steel temperatures are between 20 and 600 ℃, after this temperature, the steel has already lost most of its mechanical strength. Moreover, it was observed that different heating rates and different cooling rates influence the rate of the reduction and recovery of the load-bearing capacity. It was also noticed that the lowest load-bearing capacity of the composite slabs was reached after the end of the heating phase, showing that the stability of the element during the heating phase does not guarantee fire safety during the cooling phase.

Let $ f: V(G)\cup E(G)\rightarrow \{1, 2, \dots, k\} $ be a total $ k $ -coloring of $ G $. Define a weight function on total coloring as

   \begin{document} $ \phi(x) = f(x)+\sum\limits_{e\ni x}f(e)+\sum\limits_{y\in N(x)}f(y), $ \end{document}

where $ N(x) = \{y\in V(G)|xy\in E(G)\} $. If $ \phi(x)\neq \phi(y) $ for any edge $ xy\in E(G) $, then $ f $ is called a neighbor full sum distinguishing total $ k $ -coloring of $ G $. The smallest value $ k $ for which $ G $ has such a coloring is called the neighbor full sum distinguishing total chromatic number of $ G $ and denoted by fgndi $ _{\sum}(G) $. Suppose that $ H = T\cup C $ is a Halin graph, where $ T $ and $ C $ are called the characteristic tree and the adjoint cycle, respectively. Let $ V_0\subseteq V(H)\setminus V(C) $ and each vertex in $ V_0 $ is adjacent to some vertices on $ C $. In this paper, we prove that the neighbor full sum distinguishing total chromatic number of two types of Halin graphs are not more than three: (i) 3-regular Halin graphs and (ii) every vertex of $ V_0 $ of a Halin graph with degree at least 4. The above results support a conjecture that fgndi $ _{\sum}(G)\leq 3 $ for any connected graph $ G $ of order at least three (Chang et al., 2022).

The lack of knowledge about parenting has led to several cases of violence against children. Providing training on parenting skills is a possible solution. This study was presented with the aim of knowing the effectiveness of a mobile parenting training program based on ubiquitous learning to improve parenting skills moderated by parental locus of control. This study used a quasi-experimental design with control and experimental groups. Sampling in this study used purposive sampling with the following criteria for parents: 1) Having children aged 3-6 years, 2) Parents experiencing parenting problems, 3) Children experiencing developmental delays, 4) Willing to participate in the training program to completion. The tests used in this study include testing the validity and reliability of the instrument, classical assumption test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis testing using Two Way Anova parametric statistics. The results of this study can be concluded that a mobile parenting training program based on unbiquitous learning moderated by a good parental locus of control can improve parenting skills in parents.

The study investigated the relationship between the overall scientific performance of the pre-test and post-test and the impact of the application of "Microb" on scientific performance. The theme is "microorganisms and their effects". The sample group consisted of 30. Year 5 pupils’ from a primary school in Johor Bahru. They were selected for this quantitative study through purposeful sampling. Investigation, pre-test and post-test are used to collect research data. The results show that based on the four science constructs, year 5 pupils’ acceptance of the “Microb” mobile application is very high. According to the survey results, although there is no relationship between the two overall performance tests and no impact was found in the research, it was found that the “Microb” mobile application has a positive impact on the scientific performance of year 5 pupils’, based on the construct of scientific process skills, understanding, application and knowledge. The results of this research will make an important contribution to the field of education and provide new options for choosing the "Microb" mobile application as an educational tool to strengthen science education. In general, the "Microb" mobile application in technology can be a good educational tool for scientific learning, but educators must organize lesson plans well and not deviate from the focus of learning
La naissance de l’anti-hégélianisme
Authors: Vuillerod Jean-Baptiste
Published: January 2022

Contre une lecture simpliste de l’anti-hégélianisme qui caractérise les œuvres de Louis Althusser et de Michel Foucault dans les années 1960, l’ouvrage propose un parcours dans les textes de jeunesse de ces philosophes pour mettre au jour l’ancrage hégélien de leurs problématiques. À l’aide de nombreux documents d’archives et d’une lecture minutieuse de l’évolution intellectuelle d’Althusser et de Foucault, cet ouvrage cherche à montrer comment ces derniers ont élaboré leur pensée à travers une critique immanente de l’hégélianisme. La compréhension renouvelée de la raison, du sujet et de l’histoire qui s’est développée dans la philosophie française des années 1960 nous apparaît dès lors de manière nouvelle : loin de s’être construite unilatéralement contre Hegel, la formidable réinvention philosophique qui a eu lieu à cette époque est née d’un dialogue, conflictuel mais fécond, avec l’œuvre hégélienne. Le sens et la vision que nous avons de la philosophie française du second XXe siècle dans son ensemble s’en trouvent ainsi profondément transformés.

Authors: Mayala Nyanjige Mbembela , Tesha Ambrose Karoli
Published: January 2022

The COVD-19 pandemic has affected most sectors of the economy around the world leaving men and women unemployed, which has necessitated the need for carrier innovations. In Tanzania, agriculture and tourism are among the very important sectors of the economy and biggest contributors to gross domestic product (GDP). Beyond the pandemic, there are opportunities to capitalize through career innovations. Findings indicate that urban agriculture, genetics editing in livestock, bees and drones, and blockchain technologies can significantly improve the agricultural sector. Market research, diversification, up-skilling, responsible tourism, new hygiene standards, and encouraging business travel will enhance the tourism sector moving forward. It is recommended that balance for innovation and development, investing in strategic collaborations, moving from single point-based interventions, and focusing on the poor in innovations are important.
Citizen Journalism
Authors: Farmer Lesley S. J.
Published: January 2022

Increasingly, globalization has become a significant factor in digital citizenship, yet students often lack systematic education in global awareness and civic education and have few venues to voice their perspectives. One solution to this problem is citizen journalism. Student engagement through citizen journalism provides a rich experience that can advance several competencies: communication, collaboration, information literacy, media literacy, digital literacy, and cultural literacy. It fosters civic responsibility through the confluence of digital citizenship and global citizenship. It also develops awareness of, and access to, issues of public concern. Importantly, it gives students the tools to take positive action to address global issues. This chapter provides several strategies for students to gain the knowledge and skills, as well as access to media outlets, to participate in global issues via citizen journalism.
The Power of Volunteering in Fostering Global Citizenship Education
Authors: Nyatuka Benard O.
Published: January 2022

Recent research tends to point to a connection between volunteering and global citizenship education. Particularly, it has been indicated that volunteering enhances participants' confidence, critical thinking, collaboration, communication skills and competencies, employability, and civil society vibrancy. There are many avenues to link local volunteering to global citizenship. However, although local volunteering has great potential to support the development of knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes for global citizenship, little research has focused on such connection. Employing the semi-structured interview qualitative research method, this chapter presents empirical research findings of volunteering practices among critical stakeholders in primary schools in one of Kenya's counties. To make the discourse more lucid, an introduction to global citizenship, volunteering, and global citizenship education is made. This is followed by a description of the methodology used in the study, presentation and discussion of the results, conclusion, as well as recommendations.
