Authors:   BE, Computer Engineering, Rajiv Gandhi College of Engineering, Ganesh Junnarkar Shubham , Kabadi Aadesh , Kadam Purva , Jarare Viraj
Published: November 2023

Traffic congestion is a pervasive issue in urban areas, leading to increased commute times, environmental pollution, and reduced overall quality of life. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a dynamic traffic control system that leverages the HERE API for real-time traffic data. The system provides a web- based interface with user authentication and allows users to input the address of a signal they wish to control. Utilizing the HERE API, it fetches live traffic information, including jam factor and free flow speed, for all four roads at the specified signal. This data serves as the foundation for an intelligent traffic management system that dynamically allocates green signal times based on the intensity of traffic, with roads experiencing higher congestion receiving longer green time. The system's backend is built using Python and the Flask framework, while the frontend features HTML and CSS for a user-friendly interface. Authentication ensures that only authorized users can access and utilize the system. Geocoding is employed to convert user-provided addresses into geographic coordinates, enabling precise data retrieval from the HERE API. Once the traffic data is collected, an analysis is performed to identify the road with the highest traffic intensity. The dynamic allocation of green signal times is a fundamental feature, allowing for real-time traffic optimization and a reduction in congestion. The paper explores the development, implementation, and testing of this dynamic traffic control system, emphasizing its potential to significantly improve urban mobility. Furthermore, considerations for scalability, security, and maintenance are addressed to ensure the system's practicality in real-world scenarios. This project contributes to the growing field of intelligent transportation systems by showcasing the benefits of data-driven decision-making in traffic signal control. By utilizing the HERE API, this system not only provides a solution to mitigate traffic congestion but also represents a step towards more sustainable and efficient urban transportation systems. Key Words: Traffic control, HERE API, Dynamic signal allocation, Real-time traffic data, Urban mobility, Traffic congestion, Traffic optimization, Intelligent transportation systems, Geocoding, User authentication, Python backend, Flask framework, User interface, Green signal time, Scalability, Security, Maintenance, Sustainable transportation.

Authors: Milenković Dejan
Published: November 2023

Administrative contract, as well as specific legal institute, draws the attention of theoreticians of administrative law for more than a century. For them, it is that they are “formally” recognized by the courts, or in special substantive laws or Generally Administrative procedural Act (GAPA), we can find in almost all Euro-continental legal systems. In the former Yugoslav theory, in conjunction with the institute of administrative contracts are continuously guided serious discussions since the sixties of the 20th century. However, at several last years, we can see the intention and tendency that the administrative contracts have to be generally defined by GAPA. Today, all countries of the Western Balkans, except Bosnia and Herzegovina, have in new GAPA a special section that regulates this institute and its specific legal regime. However, the ways in which they are formulated and regulated depend on specifics of the legal system in each of these countries. In this paper, we gave the comparative archive and analyze legal norms relating to administrative contracts in new GAPA in Croatia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania and Serbia, with basic similarities and differences in their existing legal regimes.
CONFIDENTIALITY VERSUS TRANSPARENCY IN CONTEMPORARY TAX LAW
Authors: Anđelković Mileva
Published: November 2023

Dilemma with regard to defining limit between tax confidentiality and tax transparency is particularly expressed in contemporary tax law. International tax relations indicate that countries tend towards fostering tax transparency with the expect of better collection of taxes and fair distribution of tax burden. The right to secrecy and confidentiality of personal data, as one of the basic rights, guarantees taxpayers that data collected about them shall be used only for the purpose of taxation. There are exceptions from tax secrecy which are prescribed by law or in cases when taxpayers voluntarily disclose data to tax administrations. It is evident that tax secrecy and confidentiality are losing ground as the result of the requests for tax transparency by multinational organizations. The process of international tax cooperation, in which interests of ordinary taxpayers are being more and more disregard, are being carried out by automatic exchange of financial account information and country-by-country-reporting. Having in mind the fact that the protection of confidentiality of tax data carried out on the national levels, it is obvious that acceptance and application of these international tax standards endangers the rights of taxpayers.

Pembelajaran suatu proses pendidikan yang dapat menumbuhkembangkan keterampilan dan pemahaman manusia dalam mengembangkan ilmu pengetahuan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di SMA Negeri 1 Toma, tujuan untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa karena hasil belajar siswa rendah atau tidak memenuhi Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM) sebesar 65. Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian tindakan kelas (PTK) yang dilaksanakan selama dua siklus, dimana setiap siklus terdiri dari 4 tahap yaitu: perencanaan, tindakan, observasi dan refleksi. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan lembar observasi, dokumentasi dan tes hasil belajar. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Toma tahun pembelajaran 2022/2023 yang berjumlah 21 orang, dengan jumlah laki-laki 11 orang          dan perempuan 10 orang. Data penelitian dianalisis dengan menggunakan lembar observasi aktivitas guru (peneliti) dan lembar observasi aktivitas siswa. Temuan penelitian melalui penerapan model pembelajaran Course Review Horay menunjukan bahwa: (1) hasil belajar siswa diperoleh nilai rata-rata kelas siklus I sebesar 59,5% dikategorikan kurang dengan jumlah siswa yang tuntas belajar sebanyak 8 (delapan) orang atau 38,5% dan yang belum tuntas belajar sebanyak 13 (tiga belas) orang atau 61,5%; (2) pada siklus II nilai rata-rata kelas meningkat hingga mencapai  72% dikategorikan baik dengan jumlah siswa yang tuntas belajar sebanyak 19 (sembilan belas) orang atau 90,7% dan yang belum tuntas belajar sebanyak 2 (dua) orang atau 9,3%. Jadi, hasil belajar siswa tersebut memenuhi kriteria keberhasilan penelitian ini. Maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan model pembelajaran Course Review Horay dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran Pendidikan kewarganegaraan. Saran yang ditawarkan peneliti, hendaknya model pembelajaran Course Review Horay  digunakan sebagai media pembelajaran karena mampu mendorong pemahaman dalam kegiatan pembelajaran yang lebih aktif dan efektif.

Background: Sickle cell diseases (SCDs) are inborn and catastrophic processes on vascular endothelium, particularly at the capillaries. Methods: All patients with the SCDs were included. Results: We studied 222 males and 212 females with similar mean ages (30.8 vs 30.3 years, p>0.05, respectively). Beside chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (25.2% vs 7.0%, p<0.001), smoking (23.8% vs 6.1%, p<0.001), alcohol (4.9% vs 0.4%, p<0.001), transfused red blood cells (RBCs) in their lives (48.1 vs 28.5 units, p=0.000), disseminated teeth losses (5.4% vs 1.4%, p<0.001), ileus (7.2% vs 1.4%, p<0.001), cirrhosis (8.1% vs 1.8%, p<0.001), leg ulcers (19.8% vs 7.0%, p<0.001), digital clubbing (14.8% vs 6.6%, p<0.001), coronary heart disease (CHD) (18.0% vs 13.2%, p<0.05), chronic renal disease (CRD) (9.9% vs 6.1%, p<0.05), and stroke (12.1% vs 7.5%, p<0.05) were all higher, and autosplenectomy (50.4% vs 53.3%, p<0.05) and mean age of mortality were lower in males, significantly (30.2 vs 33.3 years, p<0.05). Conclusion: The hardened RBCs-induced capillary endothelial damage initiates at birth, and terminates with multiorgan failures even at childhood in the SCDs. Parallel to the COPD, all of the atherosclerotic risk factors or consequences including smoking, alcohol, disseminated teeth losses, ileus, cirrhosis, leg ulcers, digital clubbing, CHD, CRD, and stroke were higher, and autosplenectomy and mean age of mortality were lower in males which cannot be explained by effects of smoking and alcohol alone at the younger age. So COPD may have an atherosclerotic background, and low-dose aspirin plus low-dose warfarin may be life-saving treatment regimens in severe COPD. Key words: Sickle cell diseases, hardened red blood cells, capillary endothelial edema, sudden deaths, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, low-dose warfarin, low-dose aspirin

Background: Metabolic and nutritional status influences the condition of patients under mechanical ventilation (MV) and determines if they can be disconnected from the ventilator. Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effect of the planned Entera Meal solution on the duration of weaning patients and the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Methods: In this clinical trial with a pre-test/post-test design, 42 patients admitted to the ICUs of Golestan and Imam Khomeini hospitals of Ahvaz, Iran, who were under MV, were randomly assigned to the two groups of control and intervention. In the intervention group, the Entera Meal solution was used for energy supply. The administration of the solution was started from 50 mL every 3 hours and was scaled up to 30 mL to reach the calculated energy within 48 - 72 hours. For the control group, routine homemade hospital solutions were used. Data were collected by demographic and medical information questionnaires and a checklist for recording outcomes. The data were analyzed using SPSS software version 23. Results: The results showed that the length of ICU stay was significantly affected after the administration of the planned Entera Meal solution (P = 0.004). Although we observed that the duration of weaning patients from MV was shorter in the intervention group than in the control group, this difference was not statistically significant (5.23 ± 4.77 vs. 7.71 ± 6.14 days, P = 0.15). Conclusions: The planned Entera Meal solution reduced the length of ICU hospitalization but did not have a statistically significant effect on the duration of patients weaning from the ventilator.
