planning compared to relatively constant demand. Varying the demand size will affect theavailability of raw materials, production scheduling, and financial planning of a company.These impacts of fluctuated demand will affect much in the Small and Medium Enterprises(SME) which have limited resources. These companies require a production plan that cananticipate fluctuating demands to minimize stock out and over stock of the products.Aggregate-disaggregate planning is a method that can solve the problem. This study discussesproduction planning using Aggregate-disaggregate Planning method in a production systemwith fluctuated demand. The case study organization is a SME that manufactures furnitureproducts. The objective is to develop a production planning using Aggregate-disaggregatePlanning Method in order to determine the kind of products to be made for the coming periodto anticipate fluctuated demand. The data collection is conducted at the case studyorganization such as demand and production data. There are several stages in developing theproduction planning – forecasting, the aggregate planning using tabular method withminimizing cost criteria, and disaggregate stage for arranging the master production schedule.The findings show which products can be categorized as needed to be scheduled along with thequantity of unit of each product or not to be scheduled. By using this method, the company’slosses due to fluctuated demand can be minimize and lean production process can be achieved.
Efficient Algorithm for Auto Correction Using n-gram Indexing
Authors: Lalwani Mahesh , Bagmar Nitesh , Parikh Saurin Parikh
Published: November 2020

Auto correction functionality is very popular in search portals. Its principal purpose is to correct common spelling or typing errors, saving time for the user. However, when there are millions of strings in a dictionary, it takes considerable amount of time to find the nearest matching string. Various approaches have been proposed for efficiently implementing auto correction functionality. All of these approaches focus on using suitable data structure and few heuristics to solve the problems. Here, we propose a new idea which eliminates the need for calculating edit distance with each string in the dictionary. It uses the concept of Ngram based indexing and hashing to filter out irrelevant strings from dictionary. Experiments suggest that proposed algorithm provides both efficient and accurate results.

The Technological intervention in field of Computer Science and Information Technology has made it possible to access medical records of Individuals electronically. Electronic Health Records systems which are distributed and need to be interoperable too. Important Business drivers for such kind of high level of interoperability introduce unique citizen ID. Though citizen have access to data from central repository and they can directly communicate with health care providers, but when it comes to security and confidentiality, technology fails to meet the requirements. In this paper we suggest a framework for authentication and authorization of Electronic medical Records System in consideration .It will help to build An Secure-Privacy Protected Electronic medical Record System.
A modified approach to the new lossless data Compression method
Authors: Srinivas Bitla , Govindan V.K.
Published: November 2020

This paper proposed the modified approach to the new lossless data compression method. It is developed based on hiding data reversibly with a location map. It performs same as the earlier algorithm but it stands on lossless strategy where as the former approach could not do it. It can compress any kind of symbols as it operates on binary symbols. It is faster than many algorithms as it does not have any complex mathematical operations. Experimental results proved that when the symbol probability increases the algorithm shows good compression ratio.
Review on Main Memory Database
Authors: Deshmukh P. A.
Published: November 2020

The idea of using Main Memory Database (MMDB) as physical memory is not new but is in existence quite since a decade. MMDB have evolved from a period when they were only used for caching or in high-speed data systems to a time now in twenty first century when they form a established part of the mainstream IT. Early in this century, although larger main memories were affordable but processors were not fast enough for main memory databases to be admired. However, today’s processors are faster, available in multicore and multiprocessor configurations having 64-bit memory addressability stocked with multiple gigabytes of main memory. Thus, MMDBs definitely call for a solution for meeting the requirements of next generation IT challenges. To aid this swing, database systems are reconsidered to handle implementation issues adjoining the inherent differences between disk and memory storage and gain performance benefits. This paper is a review on Main Memory Databases (MMDB).

The Concept and Importance of Alternative Strategy as Parallel Strategy to be followed in Organizational Decisions to Ensure Success
Authors: Aithal P. S. , Aithal Architha
Published: November 2020

Organizations and individuals usually have well defined objectives at any given point of time and invest their resources systematically to fullfill the objectives by setting their goal and formulating and following a strategy to chase their goal. Various strategies are used to chase the goal in both organizational and individual cases include competitive strategies or red ocean strategies, monopoly or blue ocean strategies, sustainability or green ocean strategies, survival or black ocean strategies, and mixed or white ocean strategies. The complexities of business decisions after globalization of business and technification of business processes, winning or sustaining or even surviving in current business is considered as an intensive challenge for organizations and also to individuals. In such environment called the turbulent business or social environment for organizations and individuals respectively, a new strategy for survival called “Alternative Strategy” is proposed in this paper and the concept of the strategy, its importance in the current business environment for organizational decisions are discussed. The paper also looks into the understanding of the Generic strategies, their applicability and constraints while identifying the importance of alternative strategy. Eight postulates are developed to support the concept of alternative strategy, and an alternative strategy model is suggested using lateral thinking techniques. The model consists of evaluating and comparing the alternative strategy with primal strategy using ABCD analysis framework. Such model of alternative strategy can be used at operational level, tactical level, and strategic level of any organization to realize its objectives.
Multifactor Authentication Model using Fingerprint Hash code and Iris Recognition
Authors: K. Krishna Prasad
Published: November 2020

Authentication is using one or multiple mechanisms to show that you are who you claim to be. As soon as the identity of the human or machine is demonstrated, then human or machine is authorized to grant some services. The modern research study reveals that fingerprint is not so secured like secured a password which consists of alphanumeric characters, number and special characters. This model proposes instead of password iris of the user, which is also one of the strongest physiological biometrics recognition systems. The iris is absolutely fashioned by way of eighth month of adults, and remains stable throughout the life span. In recent years, the usage of Iris for human identification has substantially grown due to the tremendous advantages with traditional or usual or normal authentication techniques based on private identity numbers (PINs) or passwords. In fact, given that iris is intrinsically and uniquely related to a character, they can't be forgotten, without difficulty stolen or reproduced. But, the use of Iris may additionally have some drawbacks related to viable safety breaches. On the grounds that iris traits are limited and immutable, if an attacker has gets access to the database where they are saved, the system security may be irreparably compromised. To deal with this hassle, an iris structure with template protection becomes very much essential. In this paper the different methods of iris recognition are studied with its features. This paper also discusses about multifactor authentication model.

The Regional Subsystem Concept: From Heterogeneity to Pluralism
Authors: Labutkin N. S.
Published: November 2020

The study of regional subsystems dates back to the 1950s, when it became clear that the models developed to explain the logic behind the bipolar international system could not adequately reﬂect the speciﬁcities of regional processes. Therefore, there was a pressing need to complement traditional system level analysis with a new, subsystemic approach. The paper provides a comparative analysis of both Russian and Western deﬁnitions of the regional subsystem concept. The author examines the evolution of the regional subsystem concept research ﬁeld, its current state and identiﬁes the key competing approaches, as well as their methodological and theoretical foundations. The ﬁrst section covers deﬁnitions of the subsystem concept developed by the Western researchers during the Cold War period. The author emphasizes that this initial foundational phase for the development of the research ﬁeld was marked by extreme heterogeneity of views, opinions and assessments. The experts suggested various principles and criteria for identifying regional subsystems, while the very meaning of a ‘regional subsystem’ has not yet been settled. At the same time, the author shows that all the discussions during that period revolved around one central issue that is how the regional subsystem is linked to the ‘dominant’ one — a bipolar. In that regard, it is only natural that with the end of the Cold War the studies of regional subsystems faced new challenges but also gained a new momentum. The second section examines views of contemporary Russian and Western scholars. The author identiﬁes the key discussion points, which include primarily the nature of relations between subsystem actors: whether they should necessarily be cooperative or not; if they need formal institutionalization and whether they should be organized hierarchically with a strong leading state. The author concludes that despite the absence of expert consensus on these issues, the studies of regional subsystems have come a long way from extreme heterogeneity, even fragmentation of the very basic theoretical premises, to a much greater terminological consistency but have retained the pluralism of views, opinions and assessments.
The European Union’s Policies Towards Iraq (2014–2020)
Authors: Oganisyan L. D.
Published: November 2020

Political instability in the Middle East and North Africa in the early 2010s, accompanied by an escalation of the terrorist threat and uncontrolled migration, caused serious concern in the European Union about the situation in the Arab world. As a consequence, the EU has noticeably increased assistance to Iraq, providing Baghdad with substantial support in the ﬁght against the Islamic State, preventing the humanitarian crisis, stabilizing the situation and promoting post-conﬂict reconstruction. However, these eﬀorts have not yet been explored in depth by the Russian experts, who traditionally focus on the EU relations with the Southern Mediterranean countries.

The author aims to reveal the logic behind the evolution of the European Union’s policy towards Iraq since 2014, as well as its impact on the EU assistance programmes to this country. The paper consists of three sections: the ﬁrst one outlines the evolution of the EU strategic priorities in Iraq during 2014–2019, the second covers the major assistance programmes implemented by the European Union, both bilaterally and multilaterally, in Iraq; the third examines the EU reaction to the rising tensions in Iraq at the turn of 2019–2020.

The author concludes that the EU’s growing interest in Iraq in recent years stems not only from concerns about transformation of this country into a source of cross-border challenges and threats, but also from the conviction of the EU oﬃcials that Iraq might potentially become the cornerstone of a new regional security architecture. On the basis of these considerations, the EU provides a comprehensive support to Iraq, including both humanitarian aid and development assistance aimed primarily at eliminating the fundamental causes of instability and radicalization. At the same time while demonstrating its commitment to develop cooperation with both government agencies and non-governmental organizations, the EU clearly prefers to assist Iraq through international organizations, rather than directly. Although the EU’s ability to inﬂuence Baghdad remains limited, compared to that of the US and regional actors, the European Union is perceived in Iraq as a neutral player and this might facilitate the achievement of its policy objectives. However, taking into account such factors as a high level of corruption in Iraq, substantial resources for reconstruction already available for the country, as well as Brussels’ focus on Syria, the scope of the EU’s further involvement in Iraq remains unclear.
Latin America in the 21st Century: Regional Development Trajectories
Authors: Kuznetsov D. A.
Published: November 2020

Latin America and the Caribbean region (LAC), which includes more than thirty countries, is traditionally characterized by a complex combination of elements of homogeneity and heterogeneity. The latter, stemming from traditional economic social and political diﬀerentiation and ideological polarization, in the modern context strengthens regional contradictions and creates new division lines. At the same time, the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries was marked by a growing integration of the region into the global market and globalization processes in general. In order to provide an outlook on the possible future developments in LAC, the author examines how the key trends of the current world politics permeate the region. The theoretical framework of the paper is based on the methodology proposed by the Russian researcher M.M. Lebedeva who outlines three basic megatrends — globalization, integration, and democratization and their counter-trends — deglobalization, disintegration, and dedemocratization, accordingly. It is within this broader context of a complex interplay of these trends and counter-trends, that the dynamics of regional processes in LAC is conceived. On this basis, the author identiﬁes three possible regional development scenarios. The ﬁrst one presupposes strengthening of institutional linkages between North, Central, and South America on the basis of Pan-American ideas. The second implies civilizational ‘isolation’ of LAC within large but still only regional integration projects. Finally, the third scenario proceeds from the linear development of the current regional trends. It implies further fragmentation of LAC within subregional organizations and chaotization of regional international relations. The author concludes that currently the regional development is aﬀected predominantly by counter-trends, which are evidenced by increasing isolationism, an impasse facing major integration projects and democratic institutions, and the growth of populist movements. At the same time, all this shows that Latin America is fully integrated in global economic and political processes since these counter-trends characterize the development of a contemporary system of international relations in general.
Venezuela: Political Confrontation and the World Community
Authors: Iwanowski Z. W. , Rozental D. M.
Published: November 2020

The paper examines a complex web of domestic and external issues which have both provoked a systemic crisis in Venezuela and, at the same time, determined its speciﬁcity in comparison with the wave of protests sweeping across Latin America in 2019.

The authors conclude that the escalation of the conﬂict in Venezuela was caused not only by the standoﬀ between the legislative and the executive branches of the government, but also by the split of the whole society into proponents and opponents of ‘socialism of the 21st century’. The contradictions have led to the formation of the parallel branches of power: two presidents, two parliaments and two supreme courts (one of them in exile) which de facto coexist in the country and each claims exclusive rights and legitimacy.

The authors also stress that the situation in Venezuela has obvious regional consequences. The miscalculations of the incumbent president were used in election campaigns in other Latin American countries and became one of the reasons for the defeat of left candidates, the subsequent ‘right drift’ leading to the isolation of the republic. The new political landscape has also aﬀected the architecture of integration associations, which failed to develop a uniﬁed position toward the Bolivarian regime.

Furthermore, in a current heightened state of international tensions Venezuela has turned into a theatre of international rivalry and conﬂict involving all the key subjects of world politics. The United States, China, Russia and the European Union compete for the energy resources of the country and pursue their own strategic interests. The inability or unwillingness of external forces to reach compromise and to bring the parties to the negotiating table can pose a threat to peace and international security.

As a result, Venezuela has become one of the most turbulent countries in the region. At the same time, the repeated outbursts of protest waves are signiﬁcantly diﬀerent from popular uprisings in other Latin American states. In the worst-case scenario, a constantly worsening situation may result in a social explosion which threatens to make the Bolivarian Republic another hot spot of the planet.

Revisitando os requisitos do ato administrativo em razão das novas tecnologias: Parte I – Plano de existência jurídica
Authors: Filgueiras Júnior Marcus Vinícius
Published: November 2020

O presente ensaio revisita a teoria dos requisitos do ato administrativo de forma adequá-la aos atos emitidos por meios eletrônicos. Este texto identifica apenas os requisitos (pressupostos e condições) de existência do ato administrativo valendo-se da hermenêutica da facticidade. Os pressupostos – pré-existentes e extrínsecos – são o impulso físico e o objeto. O impulso físico pode ser psicológico ou eletrônico. O físico-psicológico é a força motriz que cria o ato administrativo analógico ou o informático sincrônico. O físico-eletrônico é a força motriz provinda do ato-programa que cria o ato administrativo automático. As condições – intrínsecas – são a forma existencial e o cariz de conteúdo jurídico-administrativo. A primeira é o revestimento externo do ato. O segundo, a aparência de que há conteúdo jurídico manifestado e que parece se vincular à função administrativa.
Predictors of medical students’ research degree pursuit
Authors: Buljan Ivan , Park Esther
Published: November 2020

Aim: The evidence about factors predicting the desire of medical graduates for pursuing research careers are inconsistent. Identification of factors which influence decision for pursuing research career would be important information to medical schools to improve research environment for students. For that reason, we performed an international survey of medical students to analyze the factors predicting research careers in medicine.
Methods: An international online survey of undergraduate and graduate medical students was performed, using the using the data from Res Medica student journal database, about their research activities, future interests and plans and desire to pursue research careers.
Results: In total, 486 students took the survey. Logistic regression revealed a single significant factor influencing medical students’ desire to pursue a research degree: in-creased motivation for participation in research in future (R2=0.33).
Conclusion: In order to encourage students and training doctors to more readily engage in research, exposure to re-search and research participation could have an incremental value to existing research education in medical schools.
The War of Time: Occupation, Resistance, Communization
Authors: Noys Benjamin
Published: November 2020

Contemporary theorizations of strategies of resistance and revolution often turn on affirming the concepts of speed and saturation. I want to critically consider these claims by returning to the work of Paul Virilio from the 1970s and contemporary “communization theory.” These theorizations stress the emptying-out of traditional worker’s identity and the need to re-invent forms of resistance and revolution that can address this challenge. My aim is to assess how both engage with the problem of acceleration, and particularly the relation of resistance to forms of contemporary military power. I will argue that strategies of acceleration find themselves in fraught convergence with both military and capitalist practice.

Metaphysics of Finance Economy: Of its Radicalization as the Method of Revoking Real Economy
Authors: Kolozova Katerina
Published: November 2020

My claim here is that there is no exit from metaphysics. We are metaphysical creatures inasmuch as we are material, the latter always already inviting the former. However, an exit from the disciplining and hallucinatory grasp of philosophical metaphysics or from philosophy is possible, as both Marx and Laruelle have shown. The effects of such exit will not only be intellectual or academic, but also social. Philosophical decisionism in an absolute form is the essence of capitalist economy and politics, and I will try to demonstrate this further on. Nonetheless, the ideas of political system or the possibilities of thinkable political horizons remain or become ever more detached from the economic logic of the liberal, pseudo-materialistic and individualist philosophy of exploitation through alienation called capitalism.

Trade Unions, Workers and the Protection of Workers’ Rights: A Vicious Circle with No Escape?
Authors: Saveski Zdravko
Published: November 2020

The overall problem with the trade unions, workers and protection of the workers’ rights is that the workers wait for the trade unions to defend them, protect them and advance their rights, while the trade unions can not achieve that without the workers’ support. Without their support, not being able to realistically threaten with a sanction, the trade union representatives go to negotiate with the owners with an empty gun, showing weakness that is simply not enough in order to successfully defend and advance workers’ rights. Precisely this inefficiency of the trade unions is a reason enough for the workers to continue distrusting the trade unions. That is how the vicious circle is created.In this analysis we look at the trade unions, then at the workers, we will locate the issues, and in the final part we will offer certain ideas on how to overcome the problem. Actually, the offering of suggested solutions itself is what differentiates the counterproductive pessimistic approach from the pessimistic approach which criticizes in order to improve.

Published: November 2020

There is a general framework that we have to get in mind, and that is the crisis of the Left. And, 2008, the Recession, the credit crunch and everything thatfollowed from that has not been just a crisis of capitalism as we are used to hearing, but most importantly, for our purposes, it’s also crisis of the Left. And, if you are a materialist, if you are a Marxist in any way, I think that it logically follows, that you expect that theinstitutions of the Left being embedded in this social formation that are affected by crisis, would themselves be thrown into crisis.

Translated here is Piotr Szczęsny’s farewell letter (list pożegnalny), as Polish media called it; it is often referred to as a “manifesto.” Szczęsny distributed it as a leaflet to passers-by before setting himself on fire shortly after 4PM on October 19, 2017, near the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw. On that day, a meeting of the Warsaw City Council was held at the Palace, with the participation of Jarosław Kaczyński, the chairman of PiS, whose policies Szczęsny wanted to oppose. In the leaflet, he addresses many of the recent policies of the Polish government, accusing them of authoritarianism and taking orders from the ruling party rather than following democratic protocols. The translation is based on the original publication in Oko.Press, October 19, 2017, www.oko.press/piotr-s-szary-czlowiek-zyje-czescpamieci.

Macedonian Affective Rhizome: Fear and Shame in the Case of the Macedonian “Name Issue”
Authors: Blazheva Ana
Published: November 2020

The text examines two core emotions - fear and shame - and how they shape the affective and social dynamic in relation to the Macedonian “name issue.” Both fear and shame are analyzed through phenomenological approach and in relation to other affects and as core affects that also enable social polarization. Polarization is explained through two Gestalt concepts: polarities and fixed gestalts that serve to analyze the phenomenon that results in exclusionary and divisionary types of thinking and behavior into two blocs - “us” vs “them.” The intersubjectivity is taken to be one of the core conditions of the social field that shape its dynamic as a crucial argument towards the need for overcoming polarized and dichotomized logic of understanding social and political polarization. The analysis shows that fear and shame create a rhizomatic pattern that connects different affects binding together and creating complex structures of behavioral responses and intersubjective space. Enacted through discourse, those affects shape the Macedonian social body as wounded by fear, anxiety, shame, hate, anger and trauma, all of which constitute experience of parlous precarity. Those experiences could not be reduced to binary positions, but they create multiplicity.
