Drama Writing and Audiences as Affective Superaddressee
Authors: Fong Siao Yuong
Published: October 2022

Extending the ideological emptying of audiences into a more detailed
examination of the competing goals and demands of illiberalism in
Singapore’s media, Chapter Three focuses on how the multiple roles and
relations of illiberal capital are embodied by producers in the struggles
of scriptwriting a crime drama. These struggles revolve around the audience
as a problematic. Developing the concept of audiences as ‘affective
superaddressee’, I examine the ways in which the dislocations of illiberal
capitalism manifest in anxieties engendered by imagined audiences that
serve to perpetuate authoritarian resilience in everyday media production.
Playing with Language Boundaries
Authors: Shannon Ward
Published: October 2022

This chapter examines the consequences of language standardisation for
children in contemporary Amdo (Qinghai, China). Drawing on fĳifteen
months of ethnographic and linguistic fĳieldwork documenting children’s
language practices in a region historically characterised by linguistic
convergence, I show how the youngest generation of Amdo Tibetan
speakers is defĳining social belonging by marking a boundary between
the Tibetan and Chinese languages. I argue that children’s linguistic
boundary-marking responds to ‘heteroglot standard language ideology’,
a moral orientation towards Tibetan and Chinese as discrete languages
that has arisen amidst anxieties over assimilation and leads children
to identify with a rural/urban binary. Because this binary entrenches
a hierarchy between Tibetan and Chinese, community aspirations for
socioeconomic mobility encourage children to speak standard Mandarin.
Reimagining Rongring without Tibetan Buddhist Influence
Authors: Lepcha Charisma K.
Published: October 2022

This chapter focuses on Rongring – a language spoken by Lepchas in
the eastern Himalayan borderlands. It focuses on language contact via
Tibetan Buddhist religion and the borrowing of words, terminologies and
ideas into the Lepcha language, including the creation of a new script.
This process led to the blurring of linguistic borders between Lepcha
speakers and Tibetan speakers, This chapter examines this process and
questions whether it is possible to imagine Lepcha language without
borrowed lexicons and traditions from Tibetan Buddhism vis-à-vis the
Tibetan language. In the context of the often hazy borders between the
Lepcha and Tibetan languages, this chapter attempts to trace the historical
importance of Tibetan Buddhism in the development of Lepcha language
as we know it today.
American Mass Incarceration and Post-Network Quality Television
Authors: Flamand Lee
Published: October 2022

Far more than a building of brick and mortar, the prison relies upon gruesome stories circulated as commercial media to legitimize its institutional reproduction. Perhaps no medium has done more in recent years to both produce and intervene in such stories than television.

This unapologetically interdisciplinary work presents a series of investigations into some of the most influential and innovative treatments of American mass incarceration to hit our screens in recent decades. Looking beyond celebratory accolades, Lee A. Flamand argues that we cannot understand the eagerness of influential programs such as OZ, The Wire, Orange Is the New Black, 13th, and Queen Sugar to integrate the sensibilities of prison ethnography, urban sociology, identity politics activism, and even Black feminist theory into their narrative structures without understanding how such critical postures relate to the cultural aspirations and commercial goals of a quickly evolving TV industry and the most deeply ingrained continuities of American storytelling practices.
A Meta-View Psychology of Legal Categories
Authors: Smieszek Magdalena
Published: October 2022

Mindful of the multiple crises in Europe and the world, a meta-view
interdisciplinary perspective considers how categories of Self and Other
entrenched in laws influence the European identity, as part of a social
psychology that creates ingroups and outgroups. The assertion is that this
intersection of psychology and legal categorisation gives human beings
either hierarchical or equal social value via status, identity, and rights,
whether as European citizens, intra-EU migrants, or non-Europeans seeking
asylum. Moving beyond these category distinctions to a cosmopolitan
human-self-identity expands what it means to be European both from
a legal and psychological perspective. In this process, new movements
in Europe concerning its future can bring European institutions into
dialogue with European citizens, migrants, and newcomers to the EU in
efforts to co-create a post-national Europe.
Italian Courts and European Culture
Authors: Fantoni Marcello
Published: October 2022

Between the fifteenth and the eighteenth century, princely courts dominated the Italian political scene. These courts were effervescent centers of cultural production. As such, they became a model for European monarchies who imported Italian courtly forma del vivere (‘style of life’) to legitimize their power and to define social status. This phenomenon included architecture and painting, theater and music, manners and aesthetics, and all the objects, behaviors and beliefs that contributed to homogenize European culture in the age of the Old Regime. It involved a hemorrhage of art and a continuous circulation of people, texts and symbols. The foundational material for this process was classicism and its purpose was political. This delineates a new geography and chronology of a truly European cultural history. It also provides the key traits for the European cultural identity.
Artificial Intelligence to Optimize Countries’ Macroeconomic and Environmental Programs
Authors: Castellani Xavier
Published: October 2022

We present how artificial intelligence can be used to optimize countries' macroeconomic and environmental programs for a given period. We use an automaton that manages possible changes to a country’s membership of country unions, an Expert System based on macroeconomic and environmental rules, and an optimizer of rules, scenarios, and programs. This approach can be applied to any country by using its historical data and by quantifying parameters suitable for that country: name of the country, population, cash, situation in relation to country’s unions, constraints (in particular limit values that must be respected by the programs), and macroeconomic and environmental rules parameters. As example, we apply the presented process to examples of France’ programs. We put forward optimizations of four macroeconomic and environmental scenarios, and seven macroeconomic and environmental programs for France from 2022–2026 in line with different objectives. We then quantify the significant improvements obtained with their optimizations.
Hybrid Red Deer Algorithm with Physical Unclonable Function for Security Enhancement in IoT-WSN
Authors: Venkata Rao Shilpa , Anantha Vidya
Published: October 2022

In this modern era, Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs) have turned out to be a more attractive option, because of the advancements in communication. If the network is insecure, an attacker can intercept messages and break the sensor nodes’ security; as well as duplicate the authentication codes to launch a variety of attacks. As a result, Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) with unpredictable features are encouraged to be used in the development of lightweight cryptographic protocols. This work introduced the Red Deer Algorithm (RDA) with PUF as a new mutual authentication system. When a sensor receives a challenge from the gateway, the inbuilt PUF generates a key and distributes it to the sensor by providing complete resilience against malicious attacks. PUF is resistant to node acquisition, cloning, and malicious attacks, as well as node physical security flaws. Key distribution is moving too quickly and the adversary won’t be able to conduct a harmful attack in time. Furthermore, PUF’s unclonability and unexpected qualities provide key uniqueness and two-way authentication for improving the security. When compared to existing Tunicate Swarm Grey Wolf optimization (TSGWO) and PUF-Based Mutual-Authenticated Key Distribution (PUF-MAKD), the proposed RDA-PUF demonstrated better results. The simulation results are obtained in terms of minimizing energy consumption as 0.7 J, end-to-end delay as 7 sec, packet delivery ratio of 97%, increasing network lifetime to 1330 sec, and improving secure connectivity to 1.211.

Authors: D’Arienzo Maurizio , Napolitano Manfredi , Simon Pietro Romano Simon Pietro Romano
Published: October 2022

The Software-Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm does represent an effective approach aimed at enhancing the performance of core networks by introducing a clean separation between the routing plane and the forwarding plane. However, the centralized architecture of SDN networks raises resiliency concerns that are addressed by a class of algorithms falling under the Controller Placement Problem (CPP) umbrella term. Such algorithms seek the optimal placement of the SDN controller. In this paper, we evaluate the main CPP algorithms and provide an experimental analysis of their performance, as well as of their capability to dynamically adapt to network malfunctions and disconnections.
Creating Computer Confidence : An Investigation into Current Privacy and Security Concerns of the Senior Demographic
Authors: Hillier Caroline
Published: October 2022

The senior demographic has been neglected as technology rapidly develops. The COVID-19 pandemic has escalated technological integration into daily activities. Because of this rapid change there is a pertinent need to ensure that elders have the necessary technological literacy. Previous research showed that elders are not shying away from Internet use but are lacking in willingness to adapt to new methods. This research aims to identify the current knowledge gaps of the senior demographic and propose solutions to those problem areas. This project utilizes a survey to get direct feedback from the target demographic. The results identified specific knowledge gaps, which can be generalized to a lack of awareness of available resources. These observations were used to formulate a list of tools and resources that elders can take advantage of to become more confident on the Internet, and ultimately have the best experience.
A Comprehensive Survey of Phishing Attacks and Defences: Human Factors, Training and the Role of Emotions
Authors: Jari Mousa
Published: October 2022

Phishing is a sort of cybercrime as well as a security risk that enables ('phishers') to trick, manipulate, and deceive users into divulging and revealing confidential and sensitive information. Typically, attackers aim to influence and manipulate victims' psyche and emotions. The growing threat of phishing has made it desirable to investigate, and significant research has been undertaken on this matter. This paper explores the human and emotional factors that have been reported in previous studies to be significant in phishing victimization. In addition, we compare what security organizations and researchers have highlighted and emphasised in terms of phishing types and categories as well as training in tackling the problem, in a literature review which takes into account all major credible and published sources.

Authors: AL HANNA Georges
Published: October 2022

An experiment was conducted for 8 weeks on 15 Awassi lambs using sage dry meal. Animals were randomly allocated into 3 groups [CGM (0% sage; Salvia officinalis), EGM1 (1% sage) and EGM3 (3% sage)] by 5 heads. Feed intake at the 8th week increased proportionally with LBW. Cumulative live body weight gain increased slightly more in EGM3 after the 5th week to attain 10.7 Kg at 8th week. FCR was most effective and attained 3.83 ± 0.97 in EGM3 Vs 4.14 ± 0.53 and 4.15 ± 0.64 in CGM and EGM1, respectively. After cooling, luminance ranged between 45.41 ± 2.97 in CGM and 47.28 ± 5.63 in EGM1 where as in EGM3 it was 47.28 ± 5.63. Redness, a*, after cooling was lowest in EGM3 (20.15 ± 3.29) followed by CGM (22.61 ± 3.41) and EGM1 (24.97 ± 1.24). Yellowness b* after 1 month of freezing is positively correlated with the achieved results after 24 h of cooling. The least losses in water after cooling was in EGM3 attaining 11.39 ± 2.39%. Meat of CGM loses more water after cooking (30.30 ± 6.52%) than other groups. Furthermore, after 24 hours of cooling, the most tender meat was in EGM1 (4.87 ± 0.44mm) in comparison to CGM (3.3 ± 0.64mm), whereas EGM3 occupied the 1st place in cooked meat tenderness after 1 month of freezing (5.4 ± 0.8mm). It is concluded and recommended to use rations containing sage meal in the daily feeding of Awassi sheep.

Authors: Mwai Kennedy Ochieng , Nalugala Reginald
Published: October 2022

In Majengo-Pumwani slum in Nairobi City County, Kenya, many youths who had joined Al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia have quietly sneaked back into the community thus presenting a security risk to the rest of the society. Therefore, this study investigated the factors for disengagement and rehabilitation from violent extremism in Majengo-Pumwani slum. The study used mixed method research design involving interviews, focus groups and survey. The study used Krejcie-Morgan sample table to calculate the optimum sample size giving a confidence level of 90% with an acceptable margin of 5% error. Quantitative data was coded, entered and analyzed by means of both inferential and descriptive statistics using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 21. Content analysis was used to analyze qualitative data. Data collection instruments used in this study are questionnaires from 195 participants, key informant interview guides from 3 participants and focus group discussions with 17 participants. Based on this calculation, a total of 217 respondents participated in this study (n=217). The main finding showed that the desire by extremist individuals to begin normal lives away from violence would make them shun and disengage from terrorism thus catalyzing their rehabilitation. Thus, a structured framework is necessary for rehabilitating Al-Shabaab extremists in Majengo Pumwani slum. The study advocates for practical policy interventions for the disengagement and rehabilitation of returnees. These policy interventions should include providing education and skills development to the returnees, community involvement in their rehabilitation as well as having well established legal and institutional measures for conducive disengagement process.
Food safety in foodservice establishments : knowledge, practices and attitudes of food handlers in Gauteng and Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa
Authors:   , Tyabashe Yondela Noxolo
Published: October 2022

Poor food safety practices, limited knowledge and improper attitudes of food handlers have been revealed to exist in many foodservice establishments by a number of researchers. The high numbers of reported food poisoning cases across the world have raised concerns regarding food safety. At a base level, food is prepared under unhygienic conditions in which food handlers seem not to be complying with food safety regulations. Therefore, this study sought to examine the level of food handlers’ knowledge toward compliance with food safety standards. Food handlers’ attitudes and the extent of practice consistent with food safety regulations. This study was conducted in both private and government foodservice establishments within South Africa. The sample frame comprised of private foodservice establishments such as commercial restaurants, while the government foodservice establishments included health care establishments. A 100% response rate was achieved from the 100 food handlers drawn from various foodservice establishments in Gauteng and Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa. Data were collected from sampled respondents by way of self-administered questionnaires that were specifically designed for food handlers in foodservice establishments. Data were quantitatively analysed in SPSS using bivariate techniques and correlation. The results of quantitative analysis show primarily that despite food handlers possessing knowledge of food safety standards at different levels, only a limited number put their knowledge into practice. Topical to these food safety standards are proper handling of food, storage and preparation. This investigation locates the gap in implementing, practising and enforcing food safety regulations. This study recommends that stakeholders in government, communities, foodservice industry owners, educators and researchers prioritise collective action to educate society in particular food handling in advancing, implementing and maintaining proper practices regarding food safety knowledge. Importantly, the study recommends the need for state organs to improve current ways of enforcement of food safety regulations in order to prevent food poisoning and ensure safe foods. One of the food safety enforcement improvements would be the training of staff who manage foodservice establishments and staff who handle food.
Post-Doctoral and Non-Faculty Doctorate Researchers in Engineering Education: Demographics and Funding
Authors: Fomunyam Kehdinga
Published: October 2022

The driving force behind research in many countries is funding for research and development. The research at postgraduate level is predicated on a core research group championed by one principal investigator which might include staff scientists, postdoctoral appointees, non-faculty doctorate researchers, or graduate students and they play major roles in supporting the day-to-day duties in a research laboratory in order to gain more knowledge to continue their own independent research careers. In this case study, postgraduate postdoctoral appointees and doctorate holding non-tenure researchers in engineering were the study group and secondary data from National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (2018) was used in this study. From this result, it was noticeable that there were more of postdoctoral appointees in units much more than the other categories. There were more males than females among postdoctoral appointees and non-faculty doctorate researchers in engineering education. Findings reveal that the most prominent primary sources of support for postdoctoral appointees are federal and nonfederal domestic. From the primary mechanism of support, research grants were the most available for post-doctoral appointees. This study therefore recommends that there should be more inclusion for females in engineering education and efforts be intensified on increasing funding in postdoctoral engineering education.

The Effect of Competitive Intensity on Performance of Private Security Firms in Kenya
Authors: Ojiambo Onditi Dr. Evans
Published: October 2022

The objective of the study was to establish the effect of competitive intensity on performance of private security firms in Kenya. The data was collected from key informants who were either the marketing manager or the Chief Executive Officer of the firms. The theoretical foundation of the study was based on the Market Based View which provided theoretical perspectives on how external environmental factors including competitive rivalry in the industry can influence firm performance. The study was cross-sectional in nature and it targeted 39 firms that were members of the Kenya Security Industry Association (KSIA). A census was done because the population was relatively small. A total of 37 firms participated in the study and this translated to a 95% response rate. Data was collected from the respondents using a structured questionnaire whose measurement scales met all the requirements of reliability and validity tests. Descriptive statistics were used to gain a good understanding of the respondent and firm characteristics. Simple linear regression was used to establish the effect of competitive intensity on firm performance. Results of the regression analysis indicated that competitive intensity had a positive and significant effect on non-financial performance of private security firms. The study concluded based on the results of the regression analysis that competitive intensity has a positive and significant effect on the non-financial performance of private security firms in Kenya. It recommended that the management of private security firms and other firms operating in industries where the industry rivalry is high should be proactive and adopt a competitor orientation in their firms by monitoring the strengths and weaknesses of competitors and anticipating competitor actions that may affect the firm. However, the study also recommended that the firms should not be too competitor oriented otherwise they may lose their focus on customer needs and this may be detrimental to firm performance. Future studies should investigate the influence of government regulation on the relationship between competitive intensity and firm performance. This study was quantitative in nature and future studies should consider using qualitative approaches to data collection and analysis to establish if the findings will be similar.

In 2019, Financial Action Task Force /FATF/ evaluated the implementation of the recommendations on anti-money laundering and terrorism, and placed Mongolia on the list of countries to be monitored or the "gray list", which not only caused a scandal in society and politics, but also affected the economy and foreign relations of Mongolia. As a result of cooperation between public and private sector organizations for the purpose of combating money laundering, at the FATF Asia-Pacific Anti-Money Laundering Group meeting held in August 2022, 39 out of 40 recommendations in Mongolia were evaluated as "fully implemented" or "mostly implemented". As for Mongolia, government agencies are intensively organizing activities to improve regulatory measures and control mechanisms. Foreign researchers have done a lot of research on combating money laundering, detecting it, ensuring transparency, effective regulation, and how money laundering affects the economy. This study was conducted since there is a lack of research on money laundering in Mongolia, particularly on how money laundering affects the economy and banking and finance sector.

The paper examined if there exist any linkages between mortgage financing and housing delivery in Nigeria from periods of 2002-2021. Specifically, the paper examined the effect of Primary Mortgage Bank Loans, Federal Mortgage Bank Loans to Mortgage, Microfinance Bank loans to mortgage, and Government Allocation to Housing on housing delivery in Nigeria. Data for the study were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin and the National Bureau of statistics (2021) from 2002 to 2021. Meanwhile, the study adopted the OLS estimate. Various pre-estimation and diagnostic tests considered include:  Heteroskedascity test, Ramsey Reset Test, and variance inflation factors/multi-collinearity test. The study reported that, Primary Mortgage Bank Loans have significant adverse effects on housing delivery. Meanwhile, Federal Mortgage Bank Loans to Mortgage improves housing delivery minimally. More so, MBLM and finance Bank loans to mortgage and Government Allocation to Housing are major contributing factor to housing delivery in Nigeria within the periods under review. Hence, the paper concludes that, both microfinance loans to mortgage institutions and government allocations to housing are major drivers of housing delivery in the periods under review. Accordingly, the paper recommends that, the primary Mortgage Bank should heighten efforts towards improving on reforms and policies that encourage the use of loans by mortgage institution for sustained growth and greater house development. More so, the federal Mortgage Bank should introduce new, flexible, and versatile loan policies suited to the prevailing conditions in the country taking into account dynamic changes in the environment.
