Authors: Thaeer Sufyan , Hussain Nawfel
Published: July 2024

The research aims to explain the role of value stream cost in cost management through the use of the value stream, which works to manage the costs that flow to the product in the production process, analyzing the activities related to the production process, and classifying these activities into primary activities and secondary activities, while making all activities primary with direct costs on them. Here comes the role of the cost of the value stream, which measures the cost of each value stream of a basic product in the economic unit. This study was conducted at the Dora refinery of the Central Refineries Company for the Ministry of Oil on the light derivatives refining unit and working to manage the costs of this unit and make all costs as direct as possible, where the importance lies. The study in cost management for the light derivatives refining unit is a result of the development taking place in the production process and the continuous change in the business environment as a result of the competition taking place in the markets. The most important conclusions and recommendations reached by the research are as follows: 1- There is an alternative to traditional accounting systems that rely on standard costing, which is systems that use the value stream to manage economic unit costs by identifying activities that add value to the product and removing activities that do not add value to the product. 2- The Value Stream Tool and the Value Stream Cost Tool work to classify costs into primary and secondary activities and re-measure costs and direct them correctly. 3- Adopting modern administrative methods in cost management that rely on the value stream and value stream costing, which is an alternative to traditional systems that rely on standard costs.

Published: July 2024

This study aims to compare some of the organizing methods used in estimating a multivariable regression model in the presence of high-dimensional data. A comprehensive analysis of the data was conducted, studying the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. These methods were applied to a set of real data to evaluate their performance and effectiveness. A comparison was made between the Lasso method, which is used for high-dimensional data, to find estimators in the case of dimensionality problem, and the Multi-split Lasso method. The estimation results were analyzed, and the accuracy and overall performance of each method were evaluated. The study reached important results indicating that the Multi-split Lasso method is superior to the Lasso method, based on several criteria, most notably the BIC criterion, which favored the proposed method for the regression model in high-dimensional data.

The effect of the dollar exchange rate on cash liquidity in Iraqi banks
Authors: Farhan Habib , bakir Ibrahim , Mohammed Adnan
Published: July 2024

Iraqi markets have recently witnessed fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates (the dollar) ،The exchange rate constitutes an important element in international economic relations by facilitating the process of international trade exchange. Therefore, understanding the exchange rate policy is a fundamental issue in order to identify the mechanism by which the macroeconomy works and because the exchange rate has an important role in achieving price stability. In addition, the exchange rate is considered a basic basis for oil-producing countries, as they are rentier countries in which oil exports prevail over other exports. In addition, it is the price through which the prices of local goods and services abroad, as well as foreign goods and services, are determined. Iraq follows a managed global exchange rate system in which the central bank controls the money supply through the currency selling window, where banks and companies enter as sellers or buyers of the currency, and this process affects the quantity of the money supply of the currency with the aim of controlling and meeting the exchange rate and then the level of liquidity. Available at banks. The research touched on the research methodology based on (the problem, objectives, importance, and hypothesis of the research) and the theoretical framework, which contained two aspects: the exchange rate and financial liquidity. As for the practical aspect, it reviewed the Central Bank of Iraq and its importance, as well as its responsibilities in determining the foreign currency exchange rate and the extent of its impact on the country’s financial liquidity.

Published: July 2024

Kuwum Village, in Mengwi District, Badung Regency, Bali, is about 29 km north of Denpasar. Here, raising Bali Kereman cattle supplements farmers' income from farming and other jobs. Despite the potential profitability from meat, offspring, manure, and labor, the Nandini cattle group faces challenges. These include insufficient capital, inadequate feed, poor cattle maintenance, inefficient manure processing, and underdeveloped manure sales channels, hindering income maximization. The primary issue is low management capability in cattle maintenance. Effective cattle raising requires an ideal stable location, at least 10 meters from houses, accessible by vehicle, and near agricultural land, allowing sunlight. Quality seed selection, stable maintenance, and adequate feeding are essential. To address these challenges, methods such as presentations and demonstration plots for forage feeding and cage spraying are used. These activities aim to improve farmers' knowledge and practices, increasing cattle weight and farmers' income, ultimately achieving better welfare. Community Service activities have enhanced understanding and demonstrated proper maintenance, feeding, and cage spraying in the Nandini cattle group

Authors: Deveci Tanju , Bedirhanoğlu İdris
Published: July 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic served as a disjuncture causing individuals to seek various learning opportunities, including intentional informal learning (IIL). This study investigated 190 Turkey-based civil engineers’ IIL experiences influenced by the pandemic. Data were collected using a survey with close- and open-ended questions. Results revealed that the participants’ overall IIL engagement was at a moderate level, trying to compensate for the lack of information and skills deemed essential, most of which were job-related. Although they also indicated general interest-related IIL activities, these were still related to work. Results also showed that the participants normally used internet-based learning sources and had a tendency toward communicative and collaborative IIL activities. Based on the results, training programs for civil engineers are recommended to emphasize the notion of IIL and create communicative and collaborative learning opportunities in virtual and non-virtual environments.

Authors:   , Favero Bruno de Oliveira
Published: July 2024

O presente trabalho teve por objetivo analisar o uso da música na Segurança Pública. Como é cediço, inúmeros são os problemas de criminalidade e violência na atualidade, decorrência de múltiplos fatores que engendram a sociedade contemporânea, caracterizada pela complexidade. Nas periferias paulistas, especificamente no “mundo funk proibidão”, a busca por aprofundamento das liberdades não tem se afinado com a observância do dever fundamental de obediência às leis. Neste quadro recuperou-se a linha do tempo dos usos e concepções da música, onde se observa o seu potencial transformador em aspectos educacionais, estéticos, éticos, formativos e outros, bem como sua atual utilização no âmbito dos órgãos policiais paulistas, como o “corpo musical da Polícia Militar”, e as iniciativas musicais na Polícia Civil de São Paulo. Assim, verificou-se o seu uso na Divisão de Prevenção e Educação (DIPE), do Departamento Estadual de Prevenção e Repressão ao Narcotráfico (DENARC), e também a atuação do coral da Polícia Civil. De notar a análise da canção “Laços Eternos”, de autoria do Delegado de Polícia, Cloves Rodrigues Costa. Verdadeira análise sociológica de algumas permanências na sociedade atual. No que se refere à repressão criminal qualificada destaca-se a educação sentimental em Richard Rorty, como fundamento de efetividade dos Direitos Humanos, o que se vislumbra concretizável a partir do trabalho pedagógico-musical do Centro de Direitos Humanos e Segurança Pública “Celso Vilhena Vieira”. Igualmente, perscrutou-se a Arte como constituinte hermenêutica da atividade jurídica do Delegado de Polícia. Focalizou-se o impacto destas iniciativas na construção de cultura e mentalidade voltados à proteção e promoção dos direitos fundamentais. A pesquisa visa demonstrar a importância da música para a edificação de uma subjetividade sensível à pertinência da fusão entre as possíveis bases teórico-metodológicas das atividades da Segurança Pública, quais sejam, as investigações artística, criminal e criminológica, o que se coaduna com as bases ínsitas ao Estado Democrático de Direito.

Em específico aqui se reúnem os docentes e discentes diretamente vinculados à Linha 2 (Estudos de Linguagem e Práticas Discursivas) do referido Programa. A obra conta também com trabalhos de vários grupos de pesquisa provenientes de diferentes universidades brasileiras, que compartilham conosco (in)formalmente saberes e questionamentos a respeito da temática abordada nesta coletânea. São colegas pesquisadores que têm urdido uma rede de conhecimentos constante conosco e gentilmente aceitaram compor mais este trabalho, trazendo interessantes contribuições para o eixo que o norteia. Desse modo, aqui reúnem-se pesquisas cujas investigações se centram em torno de teorias e práticas linguísticas tendo o texto e o discurso como um dos pontos de referência. Os estudos e pesquisas desenvolvidos mobilizam perspectivas e abordagens teórico-metodológicas que problematizam a dimensão linguageira em seus aspectos sociais, históricos, culturais trazendo uma ênfase especial ao contexto do ensino da língua e à dimensão tecno-linguageira concernentes ao ambiente digital, ambos vistos como processos sociais e discursivos complexos. Dialogando com o texto de João Cabral de Melo Neto, que trouxemos na epígrafe, ressaltamos a importância dos muitos fios para compor o rio do discurso-único das múltiplas perspectivas que se somam e que se enfrasam, compondo o grandiloquente, vasto e heterogêneo campo de estudos textuais e discursivos. Com essas inquietações teóricas e analíticas em torno do tecnológico, do digital e contexto educacional, reunimos trabalhos que discutem os entrelaçamentos entre Linguagem, Sociedade e Ensino, no âmbito dos estudos linguísticos, em suas diferentes vertentes teóricas e metodológicas. Espera-se que as discussões que aqui apresentamos realcem a relevância dos estudos da linguagem para o desenvolvimento de uma sociedade mais justa e igualitária em suas múltiplas dimensões e em sua diversidade.

Cinema de engajamento, neoliberalismo e educação formal
Authors: Silva Divane Oliveira de Moura , Paiva André Luiz dos Santos , Cunha Kátia Silva
Published: July 2024

Este ensaio provém de aprofundamentos teóricos no contexto temático de nossa pesquisa no campo das políticas educacionais, em um programa de doutorado em Educação. Objetivamos explorar a função pedagógica do cinema ante as práticas e regimes neoliberais, focando no sofrimento psíquico causado aos indivíduos por meio da busca ao empreendedorismo de si mesmos. Nossa abordagem está ancorada no pós-estruturalismo, principalmente, pelo diálogo com Gilles Deleuze e Jacques Derrida, os quais, apesar de divergências teóricas, compartilham o interesse em defender a multiplicidade de possibilidades para futuros, que são incertos e indeterminados. Nessa direção, compreendemos que educação formal é mobilizada constantemente a criar momentos reflexivos que questionem os problemas emergentes na sociedade, inclusive, as tentativas de despolitizar os indivíduos e ignorar os devires. Nesse sentido, com a finalidade de destacar as possibilidades do cinema de engajamento na Educação, apresentamos ainda uma proposta de intervenção através da utilização do curta-metragem El Empleo.

O retorno presencial às escolas pós-pandemia trouxe à tona uma problemática para além dos currículos: as questões de sofrimento mental nos estudantes se materializaram de forma concreta no âmbito educativo. Em uma escola federal do Rio de Janeiro, o Setor de Orientação Educacional (SOE), responsável por estar próximo dos estudantes e familiares, se deparou com maior procura por espaços de escuta e acolhimento. Em sua grande maioria, as queixas atravessaram os aspectos da socialização, convivência, depressão e ansiedade. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o processo de construção de ações para a saúde mental na esfera escolar com estudantes, familiares e educadores. A metodologia, de abordagem qualitativa, trata-se de um relato de experiência de professoras orientadoras educacionais do Ensino Fundamental – anos finais e do Ensino Médio. O trabalho aponta a importância de parcerias entre educação e saúde para atender as demandas que atravessam o contexto da aprendizagem dos estudantes.

El artículo tiene como objetivo caracterizar experiencias de malestar subjetivo en 10 estudiantes del curso técnico de enfermería de un instituto técnico de la ciudad de Cali, Colombia, durante el período de práctica profesional. Es un estudio cualitativo, descriptivo y transversal; estudio de caso, que utilizo la técnica de análisis categorial de contenido. Se identificó malestar subjetivo como resultado de factores internos y externos. Se desencadenan síntomas psicológicos, físicos y relacionales. Frente a este malestar existen defensas, principalmente con el diálogo colectivo entre aprendices y otros empleados, un mecanismo de escape y/o evitación en momentos de altos niveles de adversidad, indicando pocas estrategias de defensa. Las experiencias de malestar subjetivo están vinculadas principalmente a la imposibilidad de poner en práctica lo aprendido durante el proceso de formación académica, convirtiendo la condición contractual en una posición ambigua a nivel organizacional, con repercusiones psicológicas, físicas, relacionales y, principalmente, en las proyecciones académicas y profesionales. Lo anterior tiene varias consecuencias, como cambios significativos en los proyectos de vida académicos y profesionales.

Electric vehicle batteries and its effect on the global market
Authors: Arpit Darbari  , Sanskruti Sawant
Published: July 2024

The introduction of autonomous vehicles (AVs) and battery electric vehicles (BEVs) to the global automotive industry has generated ongoing, significant advances. Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more and more popular due to a variety of factors, including falling prices and greater environmental and climate awareness. Unique essential criteria, including vehicle range, have been produced because of the BEV powertrain's new features compared to the combustion type, and this has made them a key selling factor. The cost structure of the vehicle is altered by the fact that the electric components are still not optimized, and the required sensors are still expensive. The battery is one of the core elements of EVs, thus the paper provides a full analysis of all available battery technologies, from lead-acid to lithium-ion. Finally, we conclude our work by presenting our projections for this field's near future as well as the study areas that are still accessible to both the academic and industrial groups.

A Tanzanian child with WAGR syndrome: A case report
Authors: Pius David Muzzazzi  , Kandi Catherine Muze
Published: July 2024

WAGR syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a de novo deletion of 11p 13 (PAX6 and WT1 genes), clinically associated with Wilms’ tumor, aniridia, genitourinary anomalies, and mental retardation. It affects 1 in 500,000 to 1 million people worldwide. Wilms tumor occurs in half of the children with WAGR syndrome. We admitted 3-year-old boy who presented in our institution with the complaints of delay in development milestones and abdomen distension. On thorough examination he was found to have aniridia, Wilms tumor, undescended testis and mental retardation. The observation that aniridia is associated with Wilms tumor led us to believe that the findings were consistent with WAGR syndrome. The diagnosis was confirmed by a genetic testing that revealed loss of 17840kb within the 11p15.1p12 chromosome, confirming the diagnosis of WAGR syndrome.
Transgenerational political socialization through symbolic capital: A Bourdieuian Analysis of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's 7th March Speech
Authors: Abid Hasan Sijan  , Mohammad Rahmatullah  , Mohammad Jashim Uddin
Published: July 2024

This article rigorously examines the transgenerational impact of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's seminal 7th March speech through the lens of Pierre Bourdieu's theory of cultural Reproduction. Delivered in 1971, this speech catalyzed the Bengali independence movement and continues to shape political socialization in Bangladesh. By dissecting the speech as a potent form of cultural capital, this study elucidates its role in forming collective habitus and exerting symbolic power across generations. The analysis underscores the speech's enduring influence on national identity, civic engagement, and political discourse. The findings reveal significant practical and societal implications, suggesting the integration of this historical narrative into educational curricula and community initiatives to foster cohesive political consciousness.

Authors: I Ketut Ginantra  , I Ketut Muksin  , Martin Joni
Published: July 2024

The coastal mangroves of Perancak Jembrana Village cover an area of around 177.09 hectares, some of the area (around 10 ha) has been developed into a tourist attraction. The tourism being developed is ecotourism based on ecology, biodiversity, conservation of natural resources, environmental education and economic empowerment of local communities. The aim of the research is to identify and describe the diversity of mangrove flora. Analysis of mangrove vegetation uses the square method, the parameters determined are the number of individuals of each species, the area of canopy cover for each species and the frequency of presence. Diversity was calculated with the Shanon-Wiener index. The research results showed that in the Perancak ecotourism area, 25 mangrove flora were found, consisting of 16 species of true mangrove flora and nine species of associated mangroves. The species that dominate are Rhizophora mucronata (important value 52.63), Rhizophora apiculata (important value 31.93), Avicennia marina (28.70), Rhizophora stylosa (important value 24.81), Avicennia officinalis (important value 17, 73) and Sonneratia alba (important value 16.39). The diversity index (H) is 2.89 and the species evenness index is 0.90. Species diversity in mengrove vegetation with a diversity index >1 and evenness approaching 1 means that the condition of the Perancak mangrove is in the stable/good category. Interpretation of the diversity of mangrove flora, habitus characteristics, fruit morphology, root types, typical substrate types is an interesting attraction for ecotourism activities.
E-Waste: A judicious management for the protection of human health and environment
Authors: Gurdev Singh
Published: July 2024

In 1959, Robert Noyce's invention of the first monolithic integrated circuit chip revolutionized the electronics industry, leading to an explosion of new electronics devices for human convenience. However, this digital revolution, coupled with scientific and technological advancements, has also given rise to a pressing issue: electronic waste, or E-Waste. The United Nations Institute of Training and Research (UNITAR) warn that global E-Waste is accumulating at a rate five times faster than it is being recycled. In 2022 alone, a staggering 62 million tons of E-Waste were produced worldwide. E-waste is laden with toxic materials such as lead, beryllium, cadmium, and many other toxic materials, posing significant threats to both human health and the environment. Improper disposal of E-Waste can contaminate soil and groundwater, exacerbating these hazards. To mitigate these risks, it is imperative to manage E-Waste judiciously and in an environmentally friendly manner. In India, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change has established the E-Waste Management Rules of 2022 to regulate E-Waste management practices. The primary objective of this paper is to raise awareness about the importance of responsibly managing E-Waste to safeguard human health and preserve the environment.

Heatmap cluster figures that use correlation as distance function provide a powerful tool to visualize biologically meaningful information. By the use of an optimized R heatmap script to detect heterotic groups in corn, mexican tropical maize germplasm was analyzed, particularly some novel varieties of purple corn with high nutraceutical value (Vitamaize). Different genetic combinations (F1 hybrids) were evaluated in trials using an agricultural phenomic approach, and heterotic patterns were compared in two sets of temperate maize entries. Biostatistical analysis of grain yield data revealed various branches of genetically complementary inbred lines (groups with similar heterosis at the phenotypic level). In the set of Vitamaize germplasm, up to four heterotic groups were detected, in contrast to only two heterotic groups reported earlier in temperate yellow maize from the USA. Analysis of mixed germplasm from Argentina and the USA revealed five heterotic groups which demonstrated that heterotic patterns in maize are not restricted to only two (e.g. dent-flint, northern-southern, stifstalk-nonstifft, A-B), but can rather involve many more groups (e.g. ABCDEF). The occurrence of many heterotic groups in tropical germplasm, may explain the fact that in Mexico three way F2 hybrids have been the predominant form of released commercial varieties, whereas in temperate regions, one way F1 hybrids are much more common.

One of the trade and market integration in the continent of Africa is the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). The AfCFTA is a single-minded trade deal to form the world biggest unrestricted trade area by forming a distinct market for goods and services for the people across Africa nations. In view of the above, the paper examined the benefits of AfCFTA to the Nigerian economy with the use of library science method of research which comprises content analysis and interpretation of numerous literature on the subject matter. Based on the content analysis, the benefits of AfCFTA to the Nigerian economy include but not limited to; AfCFTA helps in poverty reduction and creation of employment, it increases imports and exports and as well give access to large market. Based on the findings, this study suggested that, Nigeria should continue to strengthen its raw materials exports and at the same time, pursue policies and programmes that would improve the comparative advantage positions of its intermediate goods, consumer goods and capital goods in export trade.

Introduction: Psoriasis is an uncommon condition in Africa. In sub-Saharan Africa, prevalence varies depending on the country and studies. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and search for factors associated with the most frequent clinical presentation of psoriasis in our context. Methodology: It was of a retrospective analytical cross-sectional study, over a period of 10 years. We included the files of patients diagnosed with psoriasis. The clinical form of psoriasis, age and comorbidities were collected. The analyzes were carried out using SPSS 22.0 software. A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: In total, out of 16,943 consultation files, 106 cases of psoriasis were included, i.e. a prevalence of 0.7%. The average age in our population was 38.1 ± 21.4 years with a male predominance, a sex ratio of 1.8. The most common clinical form was psoriasis vulgaris (69.9%). The most common comorbidities were hypertension (4.7%), followed by metabolic syndrome (3.7%), and HIV infection (3.7%). After multivariate analysis, being a pupil or student increased the risk of developing psoriasis vulgaris (7.2[1.1-6]; p<0.046). Conclusion: Psoriasis vulgaris is the most frequent clinical form in the city of Yaoundé, being a pupil or student is a factor associated with common psoriasis.
Imperatives of Human Right Conservation in the Complacent Fights Against Insurgency in Nigeria
Authors: Lugard Amadin Emokpae
Published: July 2024

Insurgency is a major problem devilling Nigeria right now, it is a fight that government has been fighting for decades owing to its responsibility in accordance to section 14(2)(b) of the Nigeria Constitution of 1999 (as amended) in providing for the welfare and safety of her people. Regrettably this scourge has hindered a lot of developments in terms of socio-economic enterprises across all geopolitical zones in the country. The more the governments fight against this menace, the more galvanized they become in their daily operations. The Northern part of the country has recorded activities of groups such as Boko-Haram, Islamic State of West Africa Province ISWAP, Fulani killer Herdsmen, kidnapping etc. In the Eastern part of the country, there exists notorious sect like Independent People of Biafra IPOB, Eastern Security Network (ESN) and the unknown gunmen. The Western part of the country recently started gathering momentum in the name known as Yoruba Nation agitators etc. It is germane to say that, not all of these groups sees themselves as insurgence, rather they see themselves as freedom fighters. In the doctrinal research method as well as the field research, adopted in this work, it is discovered that the only major weapon that the Nigerian government is known for in fighting insurgency is the armory, and in using this military method, in bringing insurgency to bay, more humanitarian crisis is usually created, and human right suffers the more. Nigeria being a party to numerous organizations which include the code of conduct for law enforcement officials 1979, International Covenant on Civil and Political Right (ICCPR) and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Right (ICESR) 1966, as well as the United Nations Convention against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment 1984 etc. Nigeria is directly bound by the provisions in the covenant to protect lives and properties when fighting insurgency in the country. It is the recommendation of this paper that, alternative means that would mitigate the sufferings of civilians be adopted as a right that belongs to them. Therefore the use of arms as the only means to ward off rebellion should be discouraged as it would adversely create more problems for the citizens. Better options to the menace include, Dialogue, Negotiation, Rehabilitation and Reconstruction and a 'one to one’ discussion with the aggrieved would avoid escalation of violence and human right violation in Nigeria.
