Authors: Sudiarta Pande Ketut , Ardana I Putu
Published: December 2017

VoIP (voice over internet protocol) telephone communication using a data network. There is a change in switching from circuit switching technology into packet switching. Phone exchange can now use the Personal Computer equipped VoIP applications. Even the development of mobile phone technology to make VoIP communication can be performed utilizing the Smartphone. VoIP applications commonly use such as WhatsApp, Line etc. However, this application will cut the user data packets and often the quality is not satisfactory due to limited bandwidth and location of the remote server. During this time, Udayana University campus at several locations has been equipped with Hotspot network is mostly used to connect to the Internet. Hotspot network can also be used for voice communications with VoIP technology by adding a VoIP server. This concept not raises communication costs and should produce sound quality will be better because of the close location of the server. Because that researchers need to develop a model of telephone communication network utilizing Smartphone hotspot and students to be able to communicate in a campus environment. Method of this research is to develop a network utilizing hotspots and VoIP telephone exchange using the mini PC installed software FreePBX. On the side of the Smartphone using the free soft phone application and for aircraft used FXS analog phone as a codec. Tests will be performed for the communication between Smartphone and Smartphone to FXS terms of QOS and MOS produced. The results obtained, if the latency and packet loss have a value corresponding to the Real Time Protocol (RTP), the obtained MOS appropriate for the codec used while with the same codec if the value of packet loss and latency results are high then MOS obtained be small or less good quality. So the quality of VoIP is highly dependent on the quality of the signal obtained hotspot. In general, VoIP communication using a Smartphone connected to the server on the network hotspot mini pc can be used as a voice communication on campus.

Published: December 2017

Educational technology has been widely spread to take part in the technology-based classroom. The article aims at investigating the effect of audio-visual media on the students’ participation in English classroom. The method used in this research is a case study. The data are collected through observation and interview. The data  analysis shows that the students’ participation is in these three stages: pre-display, whilst-display and post-display in which the forms of participation are confirming teacher’s instruction, commenting to the video, having small  discussion, asking questions and confirming the answer. Audio-visual media yield the stimuli to the students to gain the new knowledge and information beyond what is served to them. It influences the students to purposely participate in the classroom activities because they need to do so. Audio-visual media which give them the real description of particular context require them to perceive the gist using their sense of sound and sight.
VERBAL STRATEGIES USED IN OPENING A CONVERSATION IN OFFICE SETTINGS BY ENGLISH AND VIETNAMESE STAFF AND MANAGERS
Authors: My Hoang Tra
Published: December 2017

In interaction, an appropriate opening may help participants create good impression on their interlocutors and make the conversation more effective; however, producing a polite and smooth opening may be a remarkably challenging task. The study, therefore, aims at yielding insights into the process of conversational opening with focus on the description of verbal strategies. The collected data are 60 Englishand 60 Vietnamese opening sections in scripted dialogues between staff and managers. The method ofqualitative content analysis is applied to expose categories of verbal strategies emerging from the data. The results reveal that, compared with English subjects, Vietnamese ones create a much lengthier opening with the use of more number of verbal strategies. Especially, through the process of opening a conversation, English subjects display a formal relationship with work-oriented exchanges whilst Vietnamese ones show a close but respectful relationship with rapport-oriented exchanges.

Generating Test Data for Software Structural Testing using Particle Swarm Optimization
Authors: Thi Dinh
Published: December 2017

Search-based test data generation is a very popular domain in the field of automatic test data generation. However, existing search-based test data generators suffer from some problems. By combining static program analysis and search-based testing, our proposed approach overcomes one of these problems. Considering the automatic ability and the path coverage as the test adequacy criterion, this paper proposes using Particle Swarm Optimization, an alternative search technique, for automating the generation of test data for evolutionary structural testing.  Experimental results demonstrate that our test data generator can generate suitable test data has higher path coverage than the previous one.

The purpose of this paper is to design activities so that students can construct the concept of distance and realise practical applications of Taxicab geometry.
Embodied Cognition and Human-Machine Coexistence
Authors: Smith Norris L. , Hamid Oussama H.
Published: December 2017

Recently, we discussed the relative importance of direct perception, embodiment, metaphors, and ethics for cooperative human-machine coexistence. The present paper deepens the examination of embodiment and direct perception by considering differences between computational and representational models on one hand and embodied cognition on the other. We found that to achieve true artificial intelligence (AI) and, hence, a cooperative human-machine coexistence, research must overcome the limitations of computational and representational models. This can be reached by connecting machines to the world through bodies that exhibit sensory and motor skills as demonstrated by embodied cognition. Furthermore, substantial improvement in AI could be achieved by adopting a hybrid framework in which embodiedcognition, for example, may contain representational, abstract, and symbolic aspects. The adoption of such a “both and” instead of “either or” view is a more realistic approach for progress in AI applications.
Petrophysical Properties of the Upper Qamchuqa Carbonate Reservoir through Well Log Evaluation in the Khabbaz Oilfield
Authors: Ghafur Ala A. , Hasan Dana A.
Published: December 2017

Khabbaz oilfield has a symmetrical subsurface anticline with a length of 20 km and a width of 4 km. Despite the fact that Khabbaz oilfield has a small size structure, it is known as one of the massive Oilfields in Iraq. The reservoirs of Khabbaz oilfield are produced by both Cretaceous and Tertiary rocks. The Upper Qamchuqa reservoir is the most productive reservoir of the Khabbaz oilfield with thickness ranges between 138 to 170 m. This formation is subdivided into two units, from the top is Unit A with a thickness of 67 m and from the bottom is Unit B with a thickness of 84.5 m. From a full set of log data of three wells (Kz-1, Kz-13 and Kz-14), the petrophysical properties of Khabbaz oilfield has been evaluated. The wireline log data includes gamma-ray log, sonic log, neutron log, density log and resistivity logs, both Rxo and Rt logs. This study revealed that Unit A represents the best reservoir characteristics where Unit A is subdivided into six reservoir subunits named (1-A, 2-A, 3-A, 4-A, 5-A and 6-A). They are separated by five non-reservoir subunits named 1-N, 2-N, 3-N, 4-N and 5-N. In addition to a less porous reservoir unit that is called Unit B, which has been divided into four reservoir subunits named 1-B, 2-B, 3-B and 4-B. These are separated by five non-reservoir units named 1-N, 2-N, 3-N, 4-N and 5-N. It has been recognized that both reservoir units A and B are clean formations and have minimum shale volume with high porosity in limestone and dolomite to dolomitic limestone lithology with high oil saturation and low water saturation. Based on the above reservoir characteristics it can be concluded that the reservoir units of the Khabbaz oilfield contain a massive commercial hydrocarbon accumulation.

This Letter aims at providing an alternative view to the prevailing narratives on the timing, the underpinning reasons and actual outcomes of the Kurdistan independence referendum held in September 2017. It is argued that with regard to all above perspectives dominant international analysis of the referendum has failed to account for important socio-political and economic factors without which any objective evaluation of such a prominent regional even will be incomplete if not outright inaccurate.
Constitutional Rights and Liberties in the Islamic Republic
Authors: Nick Pay Vahid
Published: December 2017

This study is aimed at analyzing aspects of individual rights and liberties in theocratic systems by examining the Iranian Constitution as a case study. As it will be shown the current constitution (1979) appears to be riddled with several formal and epistemological inconsistencies, arising from its fundamental ideological underpinnings. Surprisingly these have rarely been subject to systematic analysis capable of addressing both the form and content of the Fundamental Law.  My previous manuscript in 2014, provided the basis for such an analysis in an academic format. Nonetheless, in the light of recent updates to Iranian normative system, in particular the prevailing Islamic Penal Code, this requires a thorough revision and reinterpretation. In this pursuit, various linguistic, legal, procedural and conceptual tools have been deployed to highlight inadequacies and incoherencies in support of the claim that the country currently lacks clear normative frameworks for guaranteeing basic rights and freedoms, which should be the raison d'être of all fundamental loci of rights. In addition, as it is argued below, serious conceptual flaws in the constitution of the Islamic Republic itself could be regarded as the prime suspect for the systematic violation of basic principles of rights and liberties, rather than an alleged failure to adhere to the constitution as it is often claimed.

Gregório de Nissa e a retórica epidítica
Authors: Gripp Bruno Salviano
Published: December 2017

O gênero da retórica epidítica foi o principal movimento literário do período imperial romano e foi parte constituinte da educação superior em todo o período da Antiguidade Tardia. A despeito de formado nesse sistema, São Gregório de Nissa expressa ao longo de sua obra opiniões distanciadas acerca dessa prática literária, que culminam no primeiro capítulo do tratado Sobre a Virgindade, na negação da apropriação do elogio retórico (encômio) em qualquer situação. Este artigo examina as opiniões expressas sobre essa prática por São Gregório de Nissa em sua obra e como essas opiniões apontam para o desenvolvimento da retórica no ambiente cristão.
O latim como ferramenta de expansão do vocabulário do português

Este artigo tem como objetivo traçar um breve panorama do ensino de latim no país, comentar perspectivas atuais para o campo e sugerir uma abordagem etimológica do ensino da língua que possa proporcionar a amplicação do vocabulário, no português, dos alunos. Não se trata de um retorno à falácia do aprender latim para saber bem português, mas de um atalho para a expansão vocabular, pois não é natural para todos a percepção dos radicais latinos em suas derivações na língua portuguesa, fazendo-se necessário pensar uma forma de ensino que demonstre tais evidências em benefício dos alunos.
O discurso sobre a terra italiana nas Geórgicas de Virgílio
Authors: Pereira Bastos Silva Pio Thaíse
Published: December 2017

As Geórgicas (37-30 a.C.) constituem um poema sobre a vida rural e as diversas atividades agrícolas: o cultivo dos cereais, a arboricultura, em especial o cultivo da vinha, a criação dos rebanhos e a apicultura. Cada um dos quatro livros que compõem a obra descreve uma atividade específica, por meio do discurso eminentemente didático. Ao longo da obra, porém, notam-se diversas passagens digressivas, em que o poeta narra sobre outros temas, em geral, de cunho religioso, mitológico e filosófico. Uma destas passagens, conhecida como Laudes Italiae, versos 136 a 176 do II canto, constitui um verdadeiro hino de louvor às terras italianas. Intentamos verificar a relevância de alguns dos temas tratados nos referidos versos das Geórgicas, considerando, sobretudo, o contexto de produção da obra, e buscando compreender o seu significado dentro deste poema didático.
A Elegia no Canto IV da Eneida
Authors: Martins Paulo , Rodrigues Mariana Marchini
Published: December 2017

No Canto IV da Eneida, Virgílio parece valer-se de tópicas do gênero elegíaco ao narrar o malfadado amor entre Dido e Enéias, inserindo-as dentro do gênero épico. Algumas características fundamentais do amante elegíaco, a saber, o furor pelo qual é tomado ao ser ferido pelas flechas do Cupido, a ócio dos amantes enquanto tais, a mala fama que advém desse amor, e, por fim, a condição misera na qual o amante se encontra, diante da qual é sempre feito um lamento, mostraram-se presentes na composição poética do Canto IV. Para além, então, de demonstrar como o gênero épico, sem perder seu rigor formal, subsume outros gêneros, neste caso o elegíaco, este artigo também procura observar como esta operação acaba por servir tanto ao propósito intranarrativo como extranarrativo de Virgílio ao escrever sua Eneida. No primeiro caso, se lembrarmos que os cantos I ao VI ocupam-se da construção do ἦθος heroico de Enéias, a recusa do herói em permanecer com a rainha confirma, mais uma vez, seu destino, que é a fundação de Roma, destino esse que é próprio de um herói épico – e não de um amante elegíaco. Já no segundo caso, é necessário, primeiro, ter em mente a intenção de Virgílio ao compor a Eneida, que é a inserção da história de Roma no mito, o qual, vale lembrar, é a matéria narrativa do próprio poema épico. Dessa forma, o abandono de Dido e a imprecação que a rainha realiza dos versos 590-640 é utilizada pelo poeta para justificar, ainda que ironicamente, a rivalidade e violência dos cartagineses contra os romanos nas Guerras Púnicas, colocando-as como resultado da frustração amorosa de uma mulher.

Pedagogics as the mainstream in edication, requires practical  notions generated from phylosophy so that the contents can fulfil conceptual and functional substances. Phylosophy proposes questions and search for reality and experience which are usually found in educational practice. Phylosophy and education are interrelated, where problems of education and those of phylosophy belong to the same area. The development of conceptual frameworks is spawned by phylosophy. Educational phylosophy bears schools as naturalism, idealism, realism, pragmatism, progressivism, esentialism and perenialism. Morality has become a set of rules of the way people mutually need the others, rationally receive for the sake of mutual benefits in the obedience of the rules. The most crucial problem of social contract is the mutual trust against others,obedience of rules, except in a very specific condition.

Language and the speech society can not even be separated to each other, because when there is a language, there will be a speech community and vice-versa. Langauge has even become one of condition of society. The existence and use of the language in society is learned through sociolinguistics, which views language as a means of communication rather than a system alone, bearing varieties in line with the given social domains. On the other hand, the traditional language teaching has regarded language as a system, which entails structuralism models of teaching. In the development of the language teaching methods, language is not merely seen as a system, rather than a communication tool, just as sociolinguistics have suggested. This articles discusses the role of sociolingusitics in the development of teaching models, beginning from the nature of speech community, language function up to sociolinguistics-based language teaching models.

Social science has been viewed as naturally theoretic, which requires students to memorize all learned materials. The learning experience will be stucked in freez learning atmosphere when the teacher traditionally preeches and dictates against the students, as the teacher-centered approaches have run. This model of teaching produces passive students with low acheivement. In effort of dveloping the vivid learning experience, variative models of teaching must be applied by the teacher. Through this research, the researcher proposes Mind Mapping Teaching Method, hopping that the the students learning activities and achievement can be developed. Mind mapping teaching method can tentatively encourage student to be active, innovative, creative and imaginative along the way with the learning process. The application of mind mapping teaching method can hopefully develop students learning activities and achievement through the given action research design.

Constitutivism without Normative Thresholds
Authors: Lindeman Kathryn
Published: December 2017

Constitutivist accounts in metaethics explain the normative standards in a domain by appealing to the constitutive features of its members. The success of these accounts turns on whether they can explain the connection between normative standards and the nature of individuals they authoritatively govern. Many such explanations presuppose that any member of a norm-governed kind must minimally satisfy the norms governing its kind. I call this the Threshold Commitment, and argue that constitutivists should reject it. First, it requires constitutivists to restrict the scope of their explanatory ambitions, because it is not plausibly true of social kinds. Second, despite the frequent reliance on physical artifacts in constitutivists’ illustrations of the Threshold Commitment, it counter-intuitively entails that physical artifacts can cease to exist without being physically destroyed. Third, it misconstrues the normative force of authoritative norms on very defective kind-members because it locates this force not in the norm, but in the threat of non-existence. Fortunately, constitutivism can be decoupled from the Threshold Commitment, and I close by sketching a promising alternative account.
