Regarding electric power systems, Short-Term load forecasting plays a pivotal role in the planning and synchronous operation of an electric grid. In recent years, because of the computer industry developing at an ever-accelerating rate, plenty of sophisticated load forecasting models have been better utilized, thereby becoming more and more widely used. However, in VietNam, there is no practical use of these models, and load forecasting is still mainly based on engineers’ personal experiences. Due to the fact that experiences are not absolutely precise, applying conventional load forecasting techniques easily results in many severe consequences. Therefore, in this article, the necessity, as well as benefits of using load forecasting models for the VietNam power grid, will be clearly and thoroughly demonstrated. This paper, additionally, provides a suggested optimal load transfer strategies for 110 kV substations when these substations are under maintenance, avoiding overload for transformers and nearby feeders. Through specific examples and statistics data, the efficiency of methods suggested in this article has been proved.
Prudential Regulation and Climate Change
Authors: Donald M. Scott
Published: March 2023

Prudential regulators seek to ensure that the institutions (banks, insurers, pension schemes) making financial promises to their customers are capable of meeting those promises. Over time that has caused them to take an increasingly holistic view of the risks faced by those entities. It should be no surprise, therefore, that risks caused by climate change have emerged over the past decade as requiring concerted attention, both from the institutions and the prudential regulators who supervise them. Institutions and prudential regulators urgently need to design frameworks and processes that capture and assess the risks from climate change in a way that is tractable, rigorous and capable of integration into their existing frameworks and processes. This paper maps briefly how the practice of prudential regulation has evolved in recent years across a number of major jurisdictions (the United Kingdom, the European Union, Australia, South Africa and Singapore) to engage with the risks from climate change. This has value in its own right. Climate change is the most urgent existential risk currently facing mankind. However, the analysis in this article also provides a case study of how prudential regulation itself needs to be conceived, and in particular the need for prudential regulators to be ready continually to address nascent types of risk, the precise dimensions and nature of which emerge only over time.

Published: March 2023

Background: The nasopalatine canal (NPC) is a long and thin intraosseous passage, located in the anterior midline of the maxilla, connecting the palate with the floor of the nasal cavity. The objective of the study was to compare the measures of nasopalatine canal and its shape by cone beam tomography in dentate patients with respect to edentulous patients in the frontal anterior sector. Materials and methods: A descriptive and comparative study, 150 CT scans of anterosuperior dentate patients and 52 CT scans of anterosuperior edentulous patients were taken from the archive of the Imaging Department. Using the Excel program and its tool "random", 30 CT scans of dentate patients were selected as well as the 30 CT scans of edentulous. The anteroposterior distance of the upper third, middle third and lower third of the horizontal nasopalatine canal was measured on the oblique sagittal plane. To determine its height, the axial plane was taken from the level of the upper bifurcation to the palatal opening. The acquisition of images was done through the i-Dixel software of the 3D Accuitomo 170 MORITA, DICOM system. Results: The dentate patients present higher heights in relation to the edentulous patients. In transverse diameter, the size of NPC channel in edentulous patients is larger. The measurements at the lower, middle and upper levels in the cortices of the diameter of the NPC in dentate patients are lower in relation to the edentulous patients. Conclusion: Patients of 40 to 70 years old, male and female, with frontal anterior edentulism presented structural topographic variations that consist of greater width, smaller longitudinal dimension and larger transversal dimension being enlarged canals.

Published: March 2023

The financial sector is currently developing at the most dynamic pace, at the same time, this development is characterized by the largest and most extensive operational risks. This causes financial institutions to pay more attention to modern asset, risk and competitiveness management systems. Financial controlling in this aspect is a comprehensive system of increasing the effectiveness of the functioning of financial institutions and increasing their competitiveness in the medium and long term. The main problem of the implementation of financial controlling is the lack of qualified specialists capable of building a quality system taking into account the peculiarities of the functioning of a separate financial institution. The process of implementing the system of financial controlling of banking activity has several main stages: the methodological stage, which involves specifying the model of bank controlling; methodical stage, characterized by the selection of methods of implementation of the financial controlling system in the bank necessary for making certain management decisions; the technical stage, which involves the determination of the number of persons and the distribution of responsibilities among qualified personnel who will work with the management base. For practical use, the content of the Regulation on the organization of financial controlling in the bank, which defines the organizational and legal features of ensuring the functioning of the financial controlling system, is proposed. The structure of the document contains a clearly defined list of tasks of the financial controlling service in the bank, as well as the rights and duties of the controllers. A methodical approach to the evaluation of the effectiveness of the formation of the system of financial controlling of banking activity has been developed, which provides for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the work of the financial controlling service (thanks to the evaluation of its current activity and the cognitive skills of employees), which will make it possible to take into account not only the feasibility of investing financial resources in the implementation of financial controlling, but also the level professionalism of the members of the established financial controlling service, which is an important condition for effective banking activity.

Tourist disturbance in semi–arid springs was analysed; birds and fish were selected as bioindicators. Media Luna spring is the biggest and most spatially complex system in the region, with the highest biodiversity levels and tourist use. Areas with the highest bird species richness and abundances showed highest structural heterogeneity and least direct human impact. No differences in species richness of fish were observed between sectors and the most abundant species were found in the sectors least perturbed by human activity. Factors that explained the bird distribution were the species´ tolerance to the effects of direct tourism (noise and direct presence of people) and habitat quality, mainly riparian vegetation. Aquatic vegetation condition was very important for fish. Six bird species and two fish species were relevant as indicators of the habitat quality related to human impact. Anthropic disturbance such as tree plantation favoured some bird species, whereas aquatic vegetation removal was favourable for some fish species, such as the endemic Cichlasoma bartoni, however, both types of disturbance were unfavourable for other species; riparian vegetation removal was negative for both groups. Controlled tourism promotes good conditions for C. bartoni establishment. Efficient conservation measures such as limiting touristic distribution are necessary for all species, especially for the fish community, in order to conserve biodiversity in general.
Un método para cuantificar las contribuciones de los colaboradores en las publicaciones científicas

Published: March 2023

A method for quantifying collaborators’ contributions in scientific publications Authorship has become a hot topic in the past decades, especially in the field of biomedical sciences. Concern about this issue is increasing in other sciences as well, due to the importance of authorship for scientific careers and funding. I propose a method to quantify collaborators’ relative contributions to scientific publications, from which contributorship (collaborators who sign the publication and their order of appearance) can be established. This method begins with an initial agreement among collaborators based on principles of distribution of credit and weighting contributions to the design, data gathering, analysis, interpretation, writing and administration phases involved in scientific publication. Standardized application of this method with tables showing the percentage of each collaborators’ involvement would contribute to the assessment of scientists’ productivity and the construction of citation indexes Editorials, indexing services, university departments and laboratories should coordinate policies for the attainment of standardized, unified criteria.

We analyzed the altitudinal change in dung beetle species richness and the relative proportion of higher taxa, as well as the turnover in the type of distribution and range size of species in two mountain chains located at the two extremes of Europe (Western Rhodopes Mountains and the Iberian Central System). Both mountain ranges showed a clear substitution among higher taxa (Aphodiinae-Geotrupinae vs. Scarabaeidae) and species richness variation with the altitude was similar. We suggest that East European dung beetle assemblages are conditioned by a horizontal colonization process in which mountains had been reached in relatively recent geological time by elements coming from different latitudes. In spite of these convergences, Rhodopes dung beetle assemblages are characterized by a significantly lower proportion of narrowly distributed species and a lower relevance of Aphodiinae species in lowland places. Although these divergences can be partially attributed to the dissimilar sampling effort accomplished in both regions, we suggest that the low number on narrowly distributed species could be due to the different role of these two mountain zones as refuges during glaciar-interglaciar Pleistocene cycles.

Amazon population genetics: the evolutionary history of the jaguar, ocelot, pink river dolphin, woolly monkey and wattled curassow reconstructed through their genes The Amazon has more than the half of the world’s biodiversity. Nevertheless, the major fraction of the Amazon species has unknown evolutionary histories. This is also certain for mammals and birds. Population genetics, employing molecular markers and theoretical mathematics models, can reconstruct these evolutionary histories and offer very powerful tools for the application of correct conservation politics. Herein, we show a comparative view of population genetics results obtained for Amazon populations of jaguar, ocelot, pink river dolphin, woolly monkey and wattled curassow and provide recommendation for their biological conservation. Each species showed its own specific evolutionary particularities, characteristics that were not shared by the other species. This finding should be taken into consideration for any effective biological conservation program.
Diet overlap of immigrant narrow-barred Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus commerson (Lac., 1802) and the largehead hairtail ribbonfish Trichiurus lepturus (L., 1758) in the Egyptian Mediterranean coast
Authors:   National Inst. of Oceanography and Fisheries, Alexandria, Egypt, Bakhoum S. A.
Published: March 2023

The immigrant S. commerson (Lac., 1802) represents more than 2% of the total Egyptian catch and its distribution stretches from East to West along the Egyptian Mediterranean coast. The feeding habits of T. lepturus and S. commerson were investigated through stomach content analysis of specimens collected from Abu Qir Bay (Egypt) on a seasonal basis from November 1999 to January 2001 using daytime purse seines. The food content range of T. lepturus was wide, including Engraulis encrasicolus, Gobius spp., Sardinella aurita, Sardina pilchardus, fish eggs, amphipods, copepods and shrimps. The main diet constituents of S. commerson included Engraulis encrasicolus, Sardinella aurita, Sardina pilchardus and shrimps. Seasonal variations of feeding activity indicated that food consumption was highest in spring to autumn for T. lepturus and in summer and autumn for S. commerson. The diet overlap in terms of number and weight between the two species was high. Food composition was related to fish size in both examined fishes. Small T. lepturus (less than 30 cm) fed mainly on crustaceans, while larger samples (more than 59 cm) fed only on fishes. Teleosts were the most important food item for S. commerson of all sizes, while this species became piscivorous when larger than 40 cm in length.

Потреба оцінки ризиків стратегічного управління телекомунікаційними підприємствами і прогнозування його змін відчуває як керівництво телекомунікаційних підприємств, так і їхні контрагенти, інвестори та інші зацікавлені користувачі телекомунікаційних послуг. Як наслідок, виявлення несприятливих тенденцій розвитку підприємства, диференціація чинників впливу, вибір методу їх оцінки, проведення оцінки з подальшою інтерпретацією результатів набувають першорядного значення через загрозу втрати контролю управління підприємством. Але, незважаючи на велику кількість різних моделей оцінки ризику стратегічного управління, у сучасній економічній науці немає єдиного формалізованого підходу, а також не окреслено методи оцінки ризиків саме для телекомунікаційних підприємств. Кожна модель спирається на свою групу показників та нормативних значень. Саме тому для отримання об'єктивної інформації про стан стратегічного управління телекомунікаційними підприємствами необхідно використовувати моделі різних авторів. Окрім цього, слід розглянути показники, необхідні для прогнозування стратегічного управління телекомунікаційними підприємствами в умовах цифрової економіки, а також розробити можливі їх модифікації, які застосовуються безпосередньо до телекомунікаційних підприємств. Наведений порядок дій, безумовно, допомагає виявити слабкі місця в діяльності досліджуваних економічних суб'єктів, а разом із цим з'ясувати, чи зможуть великі телекомунікаційні підприємства стати основними, за допомогою яких удасться реалізувати такий масштабний проєкт як «Україна 2030е – країна з розвитою цифровою економікою», та національний проєкт «Стратегія цифрового розвитку економіки та високих технологій на період до 2030 року». У статті досліджено та систематизовано погляди науковців щодо визначення методів оцінки ризиків телекомунікаційних підприємств; уточнено сутність оцінки ризиків стратегічного управління в умовах цифрової економіки, яка стрімко розвивається у сучасних реаліях, змінюючи суть бізнесу та трансформуючи суспільство у напрямі повної цифровізації; окреслено найбільш перспективні методи оцінки стратегічного управління телекомунікаційними підприємствами та надано експертну оцінку можливості застосування відомих методів для оцінки ризиків стратегічного управління до сучасних телекомунікаційних підприємств та надано рекомендації щодо їх застосування з метою розвитку цифрової економіки України.

As observed during this investigation, the dysfunctions of the Scapular Waist are frequent musculoskeletal processes in the professional consultation, after cervicalgias and lumbalgias, therefore the study and the investigation on the possible causes is of great importance, and consequently the adequate therapeutics. The purpose of this research is the application of a soft tissue osteopathic technique, «streching with a specific fixation point», with certain maintenance times to achieve its effective flexibility. We worked with a total of 50 subjects, adults of both sexes. The participants were between 30 and 80 years of age. A goniometric measurement was made before and after the intervention. In conclusion, it was found that there are no statistically significant differences between the control group and the experimental group in the pre-intervention mobility levels, nor in the preand post-intervention mobility levels in the control group. It was observed that there are statistically significant differences in the pre and post intervention mobility levels in the experimental group and between the experimental group and the control in post intervention levels.
Substantiation of the effectiveness of osteopathic correction in the treatment of patients suffering from post-puncture syndrome
Authors: Krivenya M. S. , Gorobets L. V.
Published: March 2023

Introduction. Post-puncture syndrome (PPS) is a complex of symptoms that occurs 1–2 days after spinal anesthesia or lumbar puncture, and the headache is a leading symptom. Currently, there is no effective method of non-invasive treatment of PPS. Based on the possible role of dura mater damage in the PPS pathogenesis, it is reasonable to assume that the identification and osteopathic correction of somatic dysfunctions in the respective regions may be effective in the treatment of patients suffering from PPS.

The aim of the study is to substantiate the possibility of using osteopathic correction in the treatment of patients suffering from post-puncture syndrome.

Materials and methods. The study involved 40 patients with PPS syndrome aged 20 to 50 years who were hospitalized after surgery with spinal anesthesia using. Patients were randomized into two groups — control (20 patients) and main (20 patients). All study participants were prescribed bed and medium drinking (25–30 ml/kg body weight) regimen. Participants of the main group additionally received a single hour session of osteopathic correction on the first day after the operation. All patients were examined at the start of treatment and on the third day after the start of a treatment. The severity of pain was assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS, from 0 to 10 points), the severity of PPS and the osteopathic status.

Results. Patients suffering from PPS are characterized by the presence of intense pain syndrome (5–6 points according to VAS); they are characterized by a headache that worsens during taking a vertical position and is accompanied by dizziness and nausea. These patients are characterized by the presence of biomechanical disorders in the regions of the head, dura mater, lower extremities and neck (structural component). The use of osteopathic correction is accompanied by a statistically significant (p<0,05) decrease in the pain syndrome intensity, relief of PPS symptoms, and a decrease in the detection frequency of the most regional somatic dysfunctions.

Conclusion. Based on the results obtained, it seems possible to recommend the inclusion of osteopathic correction in the complex of therapeutic measures for patients suffering from PPS.

Authors: Usupbekova B. Sh. , Sartmyrzaeva S. S. , Murzakhmetova Sh. A.
Published: March 2023

Introduction. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the effective medical rehabilitation of patients who have suffered community-acquired pneumonia is crucial, and the osteopathic correction can take its rightful place along with other rehabilitation methods. The studies of osteopathic approaches in the treatment of pneumonia are described in available sources for the inpatient stay of patients. The issues of the effectiveness of osteopathic correction in more distant periods of rehabilitation after community-acquired pneumonia are poorly covered and therefore became the basis for the presented work.

The aim of the study is to research the effectiveness of the osteopathic correction inclusion in the outpatient rehabilitation program for patients after community-acquired pneumonia.

Materials and methods. A prospective, controlled, randomized study was conducted at the Clinic of the Eurasian Institute of Osteopathic Medicine (Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic) from January to June 2021. 30 patients who have suffered community-acquired pneumonia of mild and moderate severity were examined, including 15 people of the main group who received osteopathic correction every 7 days for 3–4 weeks and simultaneously performed the recommended set of exercises of physical therapy (exercise therapy); 15 people of the control group, without osteopathic correction, only a set of exercise therapy exercises was recommended for these patients. The evaluation of the effectiveness of osteopathic correction was carried out on the basis of the analysis of spirometry, pulse oximetry, functional tests of the Stange and Genchi, and the life quality by the MOS SF-36 questionnaire.

Results. The study showed that the inclusion of osteopathic correction in the rehabilitation of patients who have suffered community-acquired pneumonia signiﬁcantly (p<0,05) improves the indicators of the external respiration function, namely, the vital capacity of the lungs, increases the body′s resistance to hypoxia and hypercapnia, and improves the life quality.

Conclusion. The obtained results allow us to reasonably recommend the inclusion of osteopathic correction in outpatient rehabilitation programs for patients who have suffered community-acquired pneumonia.
Resilience for Better Sustainability. ISO 28000: 2022 vs 2007. Comparative Analysis
Authors: Prazian M.
Published: March 2023

ISO 28000:2022 “Security and Resilience — Security Management Systems — Requirements” is the second edition management system standard that supersedes the first edition (ISO 28000:2007, “Security Management Systems for the Supply Chain”). Both standards include aspects relevant to the supply chain; however, the incumbent (28000:2022) standard omitted notification about the supply chain in the title. So authors are interested in the reason for the accentuation shift as a necessary standard.

The article argues that Resilience now comes to the fore because of poly-crises in the world and Ukraine. It causes the rethinking and balancing actions for many aspects of Resilience and security based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (2015), EU Green and Tweens transition (2019), and Paris Agreement (2015), and a paradigm shift from short-term to long-term values to ensure environmental, social, and governance (ESG) externalities for better Sustainability and Resilience.

In Ukraine, DSTU ISO 28000:2008, “Security Management Systems for the Supply Chain” will become obsolete in 2025. After the revision, ISO 28000:2022 covers all aspects of organizations much beyond the supply chain noted in ISO 28002:2011, “Security management systems for the supply chain — Development of resilience in the supply chain — Requirements with guidance for use”.

The author engages in prioritizing implementing ISO 28000:2022 in Ukraine. That is especially important to the nuclear industry with a complicated and safety-significant supply chain.
Substantial deference and tribunal expertise post-Dunsmuir: A new approach to reasonableness review
Authors: Evans Cameron Hilary
Published: March 2023

The Supreme Court recently made clear that judges applying the unified reasonableness standard of review developed in Dunsmuir v. New Brunswick should not approach different types of tribunal decisions with different levels of deference. This has created more problems than it has solved. This paper argues that the law should instead recognize that, within the reasonableness standard, some tribunal decisions are owed more deference than others. Specifically, the law should distinguish between decisions that engage a tribunal's expertise, on the one hand, and decisions for which the tribunal relies on privileged but non-expert insight, on the other. While both should be reviewed deferentially, for reasonableness rather than for correctness, only the former should be accorded substantial deference. The second sets out the paper's proposal, illustrated with the example of credibility determinations in refugee law, and explains how the suggested approach avoids the pitfalls both of the former patent unreasonableness standard and of the current unvarying reasonableness standard.
Breast Cancer Classification by Gene Expression Analysis using Hybrid Feature Selection and Hyper-heuristic Adaptive Universum Support Vector Machine
Authors: Murugesan V. , Balamurugan P.
Published: March 2023

Comprehensive assessments of the molecular characteristics of breast cancer from gene expression patterns can aid in the early identification and treatment of tumor patients. The enormous scale of gene expression data obtained through microarray sequencing increases the difficulty of training the classifier due to large-scale features. Selecting pivotal gene features can minimize high dimensionality and the classifier complexity with improved breast cancer detection accuracy. However, traditional filter and wrapper-based selection methods have scalability and adaptability issues in handling complex gene features. This paper presents a hybrid feature selection method of Mutual Information Maximization - Improved Moth Flame Optimization (MIM-IMFO) for gene selection along with an advanced Hyper-heuristic Adaptive Universum Support classification model Vector Machine (HH-AUSVM) to improve cancer detection rates. The hybrid gene selection method is developed by performing filter-based selection using MIM in the first stage followed by the wrapper method in the second stage, to obtain the pivotal features and remove the inappropriate ones. This method improves standard MFO by a hybrid exploration/exploitation phase to accomplish a better trade-off between exploration and exploitation phases. The classifier HH-AUSVM is formulated by integrating the Adaptive Universum learning approach to the hyper- heuristics-based parameter optimized SVM to tackle the class samples imbalance problem. Evaluated on breast cancer gene expression datasets from Mendeley Data Repository, this proposed MIM-IMFO gene selection-based HH-AUSVM classification approach provided better breast cancer detection with high accuracies of 95.67%, 96.52%, 97.97% and 95.5% and less processing time of 4.28, 3.17, 9.45 and 6.31 seconds, respectively.
Effective Memory Diversification in Legacy Systems
Authors: Yun Heesun , Jang Daehee
Published: March 2023

Memory corruption error is one of the critical security attack vectors against a wide range of software. Addressing this problem, modern compilers provide multiple features to fortify the software against such errors. However, applying compiler-based memory defense is problematic in legacy systems we often encounter in industry or military environments because source codes are unavailable. In this study, we propose memory diversification techniques tailored for legacy binaries to which we cannot apply state-of- the-art compiler-based solutions. The basic idea of our approach is to automatically patch the machine code instructions of each legacy system differently (e.g., a drone, or a vehicle firmware) without altering any semantic behavior of the software logic. As a result of our system, attackers must create a specific attack payload for each target by analyzing the particular firmware, thus significantly increasing exploit development time and cost. Our approach is evaluated by applying it to a stack and heap of multiple binaries, including PX4 drone firmware and other Linux utilities.
Enhancement in Speaker Identification through Feature Fusion using Advanced Dilated Convolution Neural Network
Authors: Kumar Pentapati Hema , K Sridevi
Published: March 2023

There are various challenges in identifying the speakers accurately. The Extraction of discriminative features is a vital task for accurate identification in the speaker identification task. Nowadays, speaker identification is widely investigated using deep learning. The complex and noisy speech data affects the performance of Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC); hence, MFCC fails to represent the speaker characteristics accurately. In this proposed work, a novel text-independent speaker identification system is developed to enhance the performance by fusion of Log-MelSpectrum and excitation features. The excitation information is obtained due to the vibration of vocal folds, and it is represented using Linear Prediction (LP) residual. The various types of features extracted from the excitation are residual phase, sharpness, Energy of Excitation (EoE), and Strength of Excitation (SoE). The extracted features were processed with the dilated convolution neural network (dilated CNN) to fulfill the identification task. The extensive evaluation showed that the fusion of excitation features gives better results than the existing methods. The accuracy reaches 94.12% for 11 complex classes and 91.34% for 80 speakers, and Equal Error Rate (EER) is reduced to 1.16% for the proposed model. The proposed model is tested with the Librispeech corpus using Matlab 2021b tool, outperforming the existing baseline models.

This paper sorts to promote suitable cooperation between China and Madagascar by way of compiling the sentiments of a varying pool of youthful respondents, which can be benefitable to the policy formulation in Madagascar. In achieving the objectives of the research, an extensive literature review was conducted on the subject matter. Further, a mixed method of research design combining quantitative and qualitative methods was adopted. The study findings from the majority of respondents argue that China’s belt and road initiative (BRI) will create new business and job opportunities and positively impact policy formulation in Madagascar - although an overwhelming majority also concurred that BRI cooperation would give jobs to more Chinese companies over local companies in Madagascar. The respondents expressed concerns about labor laws, working conditions and the employment of some local workers (in addition to Chinese workers) for BRI projects. The suggested reforms include establishing the appropriate conditions for a strong and well-structured BRI cooperation which will create enough opportunity for both local and Chinese workers to co-exist positively, advancing the spirit of a win-win situation on which the core of the BRI lies. When these policies are put in place in Madagascar, appropriate participation from Chinese companies will create more value for local economies.

Education is an urgent matter in every culture and civilization. With education, mankind can change themselves and their civilization. The same is true for the process of spreading Islam in Indonesia. Since Islam was first introduced in Indonesia, its spreading has been inseparable from people’s daily lives, including the building and shaping of the education sector (Rochmawati et al., 2018; Vickers, 2013; Hasan, 2009). Java Island is one of Indonesia’s regions with a wider history of Islamic education (Ricklefs, 2012; Woodward, 2010). In the present manuscript, the author examines the contribution of Muslim scholars in developing Indonesia’s modern education. Data were collected from both primary and secondary sources. The mediator and social agency method has been used to facilitate the investigation. The author conducted a structural study that reconstructs historical events and occurrences regarding educational development and transformation in the country. The study’s findings are based on the question, “What is the contribution of Muslim Scholars in the development of Indonesia’s modern education, and how is the education process on Java Island? This question laid the foundation for this study, and it helps to understand the functions of local Muslim scholars in the development of education between the 19th and 20th centuries in the Indonesian archipelago. The findings show that the characteristics of Muslim scholars’ movements regarding education on Java Island consist of mainly two stages. Firstly, education is conducted at mosques, which later developed into Islamic schools classified as madrasahs and pesantren (Azra, 2018). In the second stage, education efforts are converted from its form of Islamic schools into Islamic organizations, leading to the establishment of several educational institutions and public schools, ranging from kindergarten to higher education (Daulay & Tobroni, 2017; Azra, 2015). Finally, it concludes that Indonesia’s education developed in stages, from education at mosques and small community gatherings in residences of Muslim scholars to Islamic schools. Finally, Islamic organizations were formed to develop today’s public education system.
