Scenario Based Requirement Engineering (SBRE) in eXtreme Programming (XP) through Agile Modelling (AM)
Authors: Kunwar Sundar
Published: April 2019

Software development methodologies have been enhancing significantly all the time and have drawn the attention of software professionals from past few years. The software development methodologies are expanding rigorously with wide range of diverse fields and have become more complex demanding the agility to rapidly changing needs of the customers. As a result, agile software development methodologies have evolved and gaining popularity day by day. Agile software development methodologies have come up with modifications demanded in traditional software development process to make them faster; more flexible, light weighted and productive. Extreme Programming (XP) is one of the well-known agile software development methodologies and is driven by a set of values including simplicity, communication, feedback and courage. Planning game, very short release stories and test first coding are some interesting extreme practices of XP; however, it is criticized for some deficiencies like light weight requirement, onsite customer, pair programming and so on. The study has only focused on only one of the most criticized extreme practice-lightweight requirement and has followed agile modelling approach to make improvement on requirement engineering process in XP. Requirements are the user stories that consist of a few sentences (1-3 sentences) written on an index card which describes the functionality given by single onsite customer in XP. There is lack of analysis of stakeholders and their roles in requirement process. Therefore, it is very difficult to know the specific requirements of the specific stakeholder in XP. This means that the requirement engineering process is incomplete in XP. This may result high chances of providing deficient requirements. Agile Modelling (AM) is the chaordic practice based methodology for effective modelling. The interesting part of AM is that it does not tell how to model, but tells about how to be effective as modellers. A Scenario Based Requirement Engineering (SERE) is proposed using AM as alternative to light weighted requirement which one of the most criticized extreme practice of XP. SERE is the implemented description of techniques that helps to understand the task related activities and also facilitates communication among stakeholders and experts. Stakeholders are analysed for understanding a system by identifying the stakeholders in the system and assessing their respective requirements and influence on the system. This will help to get better requirements for system development, but still needs to be validated.

ИНФОРМАЦИОННАЯ БЕЗОПАСНОСТЬ: ОТ ГЛОБАЛЬНОГО К ЛОКАЛЬНОМУ ИЗМЕРЕНИЮ
Authors: Oleynikov S. V.
Published: April 2019

This article discusses the existing threats and approaches to the implementation of information confrontation, the problems of information-psychological and cognitive security in the global dimension. The main methods and means of informational influence on the mass audience, actively used by traditional media and now new media, are presented. The analysis of modern literary sources allowed us to conclude that modern science pays a lot of attention to the problems of information security. At the same time, there is a dominance of research ascertaining nature, limited to the description of destructive phenomena. In this connection, it was noted the need to develop real measures that can prevent the negative effects of information exposure, increasing the cognitive security of network users. The use of the concepts of information and national security in one synonymous row brings the problem of countering information terrorism far beyond the purely scientific sphere. The participation of state and public institutions, including the media, in the development of protective mechanisms for the safe use of network resources can significantly enhance the effect and minimize the development of destructive manifestations. The article also provides examples of the use of manipulation, disinformation and soft power in the framework of information wars and shows their relevance both in historical retrospect and nowadays. The global tendencies of informational confrontation in the political, economic, ideological spheres are the result of the existence of civilizational systems that are diametrically opposite in nature both in synchrony and in diachrony. The problem of information security at the local level to a greater extent acquires an applied nature and is amenable to analysis in the context of a specific socio-cultural situation. Thus, the article presents data on the manifestation of information confrontation in Pridnestrovye and attitudes towards attempts by official media to increase the degree of tension in the region.

Published: April 2019

In this paper, there will be analyzed the determinants of the inter-ethnic conflict that occurred in the Fergana Valley in the Kyrgyz city of Osh in June 2010. In such a phenomenon as an inter-ethnic conflict, it is rather difficult to find out a single cause of events; it is rather a set of economic, social, demographic, cultural and historical factors that are in a particular political context. And by the summer of 2010 a political context was formed: as a result of the April coup, there was a change of elites in the state power, which led to the struggle for the redistribution of economic power and resources. And in the conditions of connections of power and economic structures with the criminals, that was clearly manifested in the country on the eve of the conflict, the contradictions became ethnic. Despite the fact that this ethnic conflict was the result of objective contradictions caused by lack of resources (primarily land), low living standards, demographic and social problems, namely the change of political power in the country, instability, the struggle of criminal and mafia structures for power and influence became the trigger mechanisms that produced violence. There are various versions claiming to explain the events of June 2010, as well as to evaluate the actions of official structures during the conflict. Thus, the Uzbek side claimed that the security forces were inactive, ignored the attacks, in turn, the official authorities argued that the conflict was aggravated by unknown, allegedly foreign mercenaries, besides the Kyrgyz side referred to the police’s unwillingness to such events in the first days of the conflict. Therefore, an analysis of the causes of interethnic conflict in Osh will make it possible to identify the main vectors of instability in society, to identify the main actors to which measures of state influence should be directed in order to prevent possible relapses.

Natural gas (methane) is widely used in the world as an alternative to the use ofliquid petroleum fuels. This makes it possible to reduce the harmfulness of emissions into theatmosphere, cheapen the use of motor vehicles, and extend the life of engines. This is especiallytrue for Ukraine with its powerful network of AGNKS. However, natural gas, despite itssignificant reserves, is an exhaustive resource, like oil. And so its value is constantly increasing.An alternative is to use biogas - a product of recycling biowaste of various origins. However, thecomposition of biogas is significantly different from natural gas. For its use, additional cleaningis required from the ballast components or, alternatively, as a fuel, a mixture of biogas andnatural gas.The prospects of using biogas in the composition of the mixture with natural gas, changesin fuel characteristics and their estimated value depending on the percentage content of thecomponents are analyzed.

Authors: Popova T. M.
Published: April 2019

The article introduces findings of the study on surfactant-induced effects on the growth and maturation of rat pups, prenatally exposed to Laprol-604. The adverse influence of Laprol-604 exposure on rat fetuses was identified in the immediate postnatal period (0-3 days) and later. Laprol-604 induced neonatal mortality within the period of three days, reduced litter size, resulted in low-birth-weight of progeny and a decrease in body weight gain in rat pups. Somatic growth retardation produced by Laprol-604 persisted during postnatal period and was accompanied by a delay in integumental morphogenesis of rat pups. Closer examination revealed an impact of Laprol-604 on delayed opening of the external auditory canal, resulting in an altered sequence of craniofacial development, such as the time of eyelid opening, incisor eruption.  Maternal Laprol-604 exposure adversely affected the release and erection of the pinna. In summary, Laprol-604 had dosage-dependent developmental toxicity effect on progeny of female rats exposed to Laprol-604 during gestational period.

Authors: Bahmut Yu. , Ivanov O. S. , Tsapko G. V.
Published: April 2019

The hematopoietic system is a population of many cells that perform certain functions in the body. The pharmaceutical industry creates new drugs from the group of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, but the “gold” standard remains the drug Diclofenac Sodium. In some conditions, a person is forced to take the drug for a long time, and sometimes all life. The mechanism of the drug effect on the bone marrow cells under the condition of long-term administration remains unclear. In the process of analyzing the literature, it has been established that the use of the drug has a toxic effect on the blood cells and blood-forming organs. Gradually, the toxic effect is reduced, but the long-term effect of the drug on the rat organism contributes to the inhibition of the development of erythrocyte and myelocytic sprouts of the bone marrow. A period of up to 10 days is optimal for use, and then it is worthwhile to look for a drug that is safer for the body.

Millet, Wheat, and Society in North China over the Very Long Term
Authors: He Hongzhong , Lawson Joseph , Bell Martin , Hui Fuping
Published: April 2019

This paper outlines a very longue durée history of three of North China's most important cereal crops: broomcorn millet, foxtail millet, and wheat. It illustrates their place within broader social-environmental formations, highlighting the various biological and cultural factors that enabled the spread of these crops, as well as the ways in which these crops and the patterns in which they are grown influenced North China's economic and social history. We demonstrate that a very long-run approach raises new questions and clarifies the significance of particular transitions. The article charts the transition from broomcorn to foxtail millet cultivation in the late Neolithic, and then the rise of wheat in the first millennium ce. It shows that efforts to spread winter wheat met some resistance from farming communities, and presents the hypothesis that the different processing technologies for wheat and millet may have played a role in the divergence of different Eurasian societies. Finally the article considers the debate over the spread of multiple-cropping systems to North China.

Background:

Emerging evidence shows that cognitively normal older adults with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) make more errors and are more likely to receive a marginal/fail rating on a standardized road test compared to older adults without preclinical AD, but the extent to which preclinical AD impacts everyday driving behavior is unknown.

Objective:

To examine self-reported and naturalistic longitudinal driving behavior among persons with and without preclinical AD.

Method:

We prospectively followed cognitively normal drivers (aged 65 + years) with ( n = 10) and without preclinical AD ( n = 10) for 2.5 years. Preclinical AD was assessed using amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) with Pittsburgh Compound B. The Driving Habits Questionnaire assessed self-reported driving outcomes. Naturalistic driving was captured using a commercial GPS data logger plugged into the on-board diagnostics II port of each participant’s vehicle. Data were sampled every 30 seconds and all instances of speeding, hard braking, and sudden acceleration were recorded.

Results:

Preclinical AD participants went to fewer places/unique destinations, traveled fewer days, and took fewer trips than participants without preclinical AD. The preclinical AD group reported a smaller driving space, greater dependence on other drivers, and more difficulty driving due to vision difficulties. Persons with preclinical AD had fewer trips with any aggression and showed a greater decline across the 2.5-year follow-up period in the number of days driving per month and the number of trips between 1–5 miles.

Conclusion:

Changes in driving occur even during the preclinical stage of AD.

Summary. The immune system dramatically contributes to the pathogenesis of cancer. An integral estimation of immune system state is considered to be perspective as a prognostic criterion for cancer. We hypothesize that the integral characteristic, uniting numerous parameters of immune response to tumor and presenting the state of the immune system of a cancer patient, may be of prognostic significance. The aim of this work was to verify this hypothesis. Materials and Methods: We have evaluated 17 parameters cha­racterizing key innate and adaptive arms of immune system in 146 patients with primary diagnosed local breast cancer (BC) before cancer treatment. Using the original integrative approach of NovoSpark Corporation (Canada), we have presented the state of the immune system by a single visual image for each patient. Results: We classified all BC patients in two groups: with favorable and unfavorable immune system states according to our previous data demonstrating dramatic differences of the visual images of immune system states in patients with good or poor disease outcomes. Then, we have examined the relationship between integral characteristic of the immune system state and the clinical outcome. The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) of BC patients with favorable immune system state was more than 96.0% vs 65.4% in patients with unfavorable status (p = 0.00006). Univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the integral characteristic of immune system state assessed prior to cancer treatment as unfavorable, was predictive of the poorer DFS (HR = 15.70 [2.15–114.90], p = 0.0007). Conclusion: The integral characteristic of the immune system state is a significant prognostic factor in BC patients. The BC patients with favorable integral immune system state can be considered as a target group for immunotherapeutic approach.

Published: April 2019

In the P2P Networks, the guarantee-based trust model, GeTrust is developed by the establishment of trust relationship in human society and aiming at solving the problems of high computational complexity and in accurate evaluations existed in the recommendation-based trust models. In the establishment of the guarantee relationship between the service peer and its guarantee peer(s) on the basis of their mutual evaluations, and then the establishment of a service relationship between the request peer and the service peer based on their mutual evaluations and the guarantee relationship owned by the service peer. The P2P networks mainly focuses on the characteristics like decentralization, autonomy and anonymity. The trust between the peers is established by the concept of reputation and guarantee. A service peer needs to choose its guarantee peer(s) for the service it is going to provide, and they are both required to pledge reputation mortgages for the service. The request peer makes evaluations on all the candidates of service peer by referring their service reputations and their guarantee peers� reputations, and selects the one with highest evaluation to be its service provider. The availability and prevention of malicious behavior, incentive mechanism and anonymous reputation management strategy is proposed. This is an effective and efficient way of improving security and reducing network overhead. Here we also use concept of mortgage of reputation in order to reduce the slander among the peers and provide them best services.The objective is the development of the chat application in the P2P networks in the basis of a trust model when establishing the trust relationships between the peers by the using the concept of Guarantee-based trust model(GeTrust).

Published: April 2019

The creation and deployment of face recognition models need to identify low-resolution faces with extremely low computational cost. To address this problem, a feasible solution is compressing a complex face model to achieve higher speed and lower memory at the cost of minimal performance drop. Inspired by that, this paper proposes a learning approach to recognize low-resolution faces via selective knowledge distillation in live video. In this approach, a two-stream convolution neural network (CNN) is first initialized to recognize high-resolution faces and resolution-degraded faces with a teacher stream and a student stream, respectively. The teacher stream is represented by a complex CNN for high-accuracy recognition, and the student stream is represented by a much simpler CNN for low-complexity recognition. To avoid significant performance drop at the student stream, we then selectively distil the most informative facial features from the teacher stream by solving a sparse graph optimization problem, which are then used to regularize the fine- tuning process of the student stream. In this way, the student stream is actually trained by simultaneously handling two tasks with limited computational resources approximating the most informative facial cues via feature regression, and recovering the missing facial cues via low-resolution face classification.

The need for efficient public transportation system such as buses is rapidly increased due to the increasing in population, the students need to predict the arrival time of the bus and then plan their journey from their home. Fuel monitoring have been the major problem that most of bus companies looking to solve. Due to the rapid advancement in technology it had been designed and implemented almost in every vehicle nowadays. This system develops a bus tracking and monitoring the fuel to provide a facility for the management requirements by the administrator. This system based on Arduino, GSM/GPS by which we can predict arrival time in addition to graphically showing the bus location on Google map. The use of the fuel sensor in this system is to monitor the fuel level. The design also enables the owner of the buses to monitor the bus instantaneously because the system administrator can easily maintained database information of buses and its fuel tank at any time of the service. Our project is about to design and implement a cost effective and efficient bus tracking system in order to avoid bus passenger�s unnecessary waiting in the bus stops and administrator could maintain the fuel more efficiently.

Published: April 2019

In a globe full of communications, it is necessary to guard the data in arrange to make certain the isolation of the users. There is a lot of responsive data present in the mesh and it requirements. A novel data hitting technique is future, as an development over the Fibonacci LSB data-hiding technique. The traditional LSB technique is the simplest, but using this method it is promising to implant only in few bit-planes, since picture excellence becomes radically misshapen when embed in higher bit-planes. Battista et al. proposed an development over this by using Fibonacci putrefaction modus operandi and generate a deferent set of practical bit-planes all mutually, thereby growing the numeral of bit-planes. we propose two new hashing functions, prime modulo and odd-multiplier displacement, that are resistant to pathological behaviour and yet are able to eliminate the worst-case disagreement performance in the L2 cache. We show that these two schemes can be implemented in fast hardware using a set of thin totalling operation, with insignificant disintegration in the L2 hoard. We assess the scheme on 23 reminiscence intensive applications. It produces different secret message text for the same plain text which confuses the hacker to attain the unique text and makes it near impossible to break it.

Human voice is basically sound which is made by humans from their vocal tracts. Voice is made of different constituents and has various characteristics such as frequency, amplitude etc. These characteristics are produced by combination of vocal folds and articulations. This paper reflects development of a system using these characteristics which altogether are called acoustic parameters to detect the gender of the speaker. We have used four models to classify the genders namely CART, XGBoost, SVM and Random Forest. An ensemble of all the models is also used to make the entire system more accurate. This system can be used as a building block for many other softwares where it will take the first step to extract the acoustic parameters and detect the gender of the speaker.

Wastewater is a residual from detergents usage that has negative impact to the environment, such as aquatic biota toxid. The Model of aquatic biota mortality as a function of detention time for the wastewater detergent concentration was eliminated by secondary data. Model is selected by election of trendline type that have highest determination coefficient, while simple idea of the detergent pollution control technique was analized from previous research and some other aspect. Result showed that aquatic biota mortality with perception time can be expressed with second order polynominal model. Damage of the vital aquatic biota organ such as cell membran, liver and heart, and also water quality degradation is allegedly caused of organisms mortality as a due to detergent increased in water bodies. A very high detergent concentration, is endangering biota in water bodies. Usage of environmentally friendy detergens, and also wastewater treatment for detergent before entering the water bodies, is expected to protecting more aquatic biota so that ecosystem can maintained. Individual detergent screening technique (TPDI) idea expected acceptable and exploted by public as one of the detergent pollution control.

Drought is often categorized as a natural disaster, which receives less attention compared to flood, earthquake, and landslide due to its slow development characteristic. However, the loss due to drought events especially for farmers is comparable with other hazards. To reduce the impact of droughts, a drought early warning system with a lead time of several months ahead is needed. This paper, therefore, exploits the insight of drought early warning system that can be developed in Indonesia. Results show that drought analysis to calculate the forecasted drought severity can be separated into two algorithms. First algorithm is developed to calculate the distribution parameters or CDF values for each month and in each grid cell using historical data that will be used in second algorithm. The second algorithm is built to calculate the drought severity index using forecast data and distribution parameters or CDF values. Outcomes of the analysis are forecasted drought regions and drought index in each province in Indonesia, showing the top and bottom boundaries of the forecast essembled models. Bias correction must be carried out if the hindcast data are available in order to obtain more accurate drought forecasting results. The insight of drought early warning system that is described in this paper hopefully can guide the researchers to develop the drought early warning system in Indonesia.

Dams are planned and built to be used for water resources activities. Besides the benefits, there were a great danger if the inability of the dam structure to holding the flood is available. The choice of the right method for the magnitude of the plan flood is part of the dam security. Problems that occurred in Indonesia former record data from AWLR is not available. One method of losses flood modeling is NRCS-CN. Moreover, this method can be used for areas without flood hydrograph or reservoir water leveldata, however rainfall record data is available. In CN's determination, Indonesia does not have a HSG (Hydrologic Soil Group) map that needs to be made from another soil map like HWSD. The research was conducted using CN method using land map (HWSD), land use (BAPPEDA). Losses were carried out with HEC-HMS model. The study was conducted in the Upper Brantas basin withSutai Dam outlet. The simulation was done by calibrating the water level. HSG groups obtained from HWSD maps in Upper Brantas basin are A (loamy sand), B (loam), and D (clay). Determination of HSG from HWSD soil map with NRCS-CN loss method and NRCS UH resulted the best calibration of AMC II and ? = 0.2 in March 2007 (RMSE = 0,55) and AMC II and ? = 0.05 December 2007 (RMSE = 0.65).

Curah hujan merupakan salah satu faktor penting dalam aliran limpasan. Jumlah dan sebaran stasiun curah berperan dalam analisis transformasi aliran limpasan dalam suatu model hidrologi, maka analisis data hujan perlu dilakukan secara teliti. Namun, dalam suatu Daerah Aliran Sungai (DAS) memiliki jumlah dan sebaran stasiun yang bervariasi. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis seberapa besar pengaruh jumlah dan sebaran stasiun terhadap hujan transfromasi dalam bentuk aliran limpasan menggunakan model hidrologi, HEC-HMS. Lokasi kajian di DAS Mae Chaem Thailand Utara seluas 3.826 km2.  Model HEC HMS digunakan untuk kalibrasi parameter model curah hujan limpasan dengan menggunakan keseluruhan stasiun hujan yang ada sejumlah 13 stasiun (kondisi 1), dengan menggunakan curah hujan wilayah metode polygon thiessen. Untuk penyederhanaan, parameter terkalibrasi  sebagai input untuk simulasi 6 stasiun hujan dengan nomor stasiun 1, 2, 5, 8, 11, dan 13 (kondisi 2), dan 3 stasiun hujan dengan 3 posisi stasiun yang berbeda (kondisi 3, 4, dan 5). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kalibrasi dari 13 stasiun mempunyai kriteria sangat baik dengan nilai Nash koefisien 0,826. Setelah dilakukan simulasi, kondisi 2  memberikan hasil yang paling baik mendekati nilai pengamatan, dengan R2 = 0,927, sedang nilai korelasi paling rendah kondisi 5 (nomor stasiun 1, 6, dan 11), R2 = 0,795. Sedangkan dari hasil debit hidrograf, kondisi 1 lebih tinggi daripada kondisi 2, baik pola maupun debit puncaknya. Hasil lain menunjukkan simulasi debit puncak kondisi 3 ( nomor stasiun 2, 5, dan 13) memiliki overestimate terhadap debit observasi sedang kondisi 5 menunjukkan hasil underestimate terhadap debit observasi. Secara kesuluruhan hasil simulasi telah memenuhi persyaratan Nash, sedang hasil yang paling baik pada simulasi dengan 6 stasiun (kondisi 2). Dengan demikian jumlah dan posisi stasiun curah hujan memberikan pengaruh dalam pemodelan curah hujan limpasan di Sungai Ping, DAS Mae Caem.

Authors: Hidayat Rokhmat
Published: April 2019

Longsor telah terjadi pada tanggal 19 Juni 2016 di dusun Caok, Kabupaten Purworejo, Jawa Tengah.   Desa Caok masuk dalam wilayah pegunungan Menoreh. Lereng pada lokasi longsor tersebut mayoritas memiliki kemiringan lebih dari 200. Sebelum longsor, terjadi hujan dengan curah hujan mencapai 325 mm/hari. Hal tersebut mengindikasikan bahwa longsor terutama terjadi karena dipicu proses infiltrasi air tanah  akibat  intensitas hujan yang tinggi, serta lereng yang curam. Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan analisis  stabilitas lereng dengan program Plaxis dan Geo-Slope berdasar muka air tanah kemiringan lereng, dan sifat parameter tanah. Data tersebut selanjutnya diolah dengan program Plaxis dan Geo-slope untuk mengetahui stabilitas lereng dan deformasi yang akan terjadi. Batas nilai aman suatu lereng adalah 1,25 (Bowless 1984), tanpa ada gempa. Dari hasil pemodelan Geo-Slope didapatkan angka keamanan  1,162. Pemodelan dengan program Plaxis 0,9522 dengan potensi perpindahan maksimal 205m. Kedua hasil angka keamanan mengindikasikan bahwa lokasi penelitian rawan terjadi longsoran.

Noncoding RNAs and Its Implication as Biomarkers in Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Analysis
Authors: Verma Shiv , Gupta Sanjay
Published: April 2019

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most devastating disease with higher mortality rates. It comprises several subtypes exhibiting distinct histological features and clinical staging. Despite recent advancement in understanding the biology of RCC success in treatment rates remains dismal. This may be partly due to lack of specific biomarkers for early detection/prognosis and poor clinical outcome. Noncoding protein transcripts in the genome play important role in the initiation, evolution and progression of cancer. With the advancement in genomic analysis techniques, especially next-generation sequencing, a large number of new transcripts have been discovered, leading to better understanding of coding and noncoding RNAs. In the present review, we summarize recent advancement on renal cancer associated noncoding RNAs which includes long noncoding RNAs, microRNAs, and circular RNAs for their involvement in RCC along with their clinical implication as prognostic and diagnosis biomarkers.
