Published: July 2023

Purpose of the research is to identify key trends and specifics of the formation of the labor market, as well as to develop recommendations for increasing employment in single-industry towns of industrial and raw materials type of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Methodology. The following scientific methods are used in the work: statistical observation; comparative analysis; synthesis; grouping of statistical observation materials.

Originality / value of the research. The value of this study is to identify the key trends in the formation of the labor market in single-industry towns of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which made it possible to determine the directions of improving the sphere of employment and employment in these types of cities.

Findings. A study of the labor market in single-industry towns in Kazakhstan revealed a decrease in the population in these cities from 2017 to 2021. There is a decrease in the share of residents of single-industry towns in the total population of the country. The analysis showed that single-industry towns can be divided into four groups: large cities (Temirtau, Ekibastuz, Rudny), cities with a population of about 50-70 thousand people (Kentau, Balkhash, Zhanaozen, Kulsary, Aksu, Stepnogorsk), cities with a population of 20 to 50 thousand people (Khromtau, Tekeli, Aksai, Zhanatas, Karatau, Saran, Shakhtinsk, Abay, Arkalyk, Lisakovsk, Zhitikara, Altai), and a group of small single-industry towns (Kurchatov, Karazhal, Serebryansk). Temirtau, Ekibastuz and Rudny are the leaders in terms of the number of employed and unemployed and also have the largest population in the general sense. To ensure employment and sustainable development of single-industry towns in Kazakhstan, it is necessary to continue work on diversifying the economy, reducing dependence on prices for raw materials and developing small and medium-sized businesses. An important role is played by effective public administration in the development of single-industry towns and the digitalization of production.

Authors: Battalov N. , Yeraliyeva Y. , Kangalakova D.
Published: July 2023

The purpose of the research is to identify the features and vulnerabilities of the new state planning system (hereinafter referred to as the SPS) in Kazakhstan, approved in February 2021.

Methodology. A systematic and comparative analysis of documentation in the field of SPS was used as a research method.

Originality / value of the research. In the conditions of new challenges and acceleration of historical time, the system of state planning and management in the country needs constant analysis and modernization. The issues of strategic and state planning of the country have been reflected in many works by domestic and international authors. However, due to the relative novelty, the recent changes in the SPS have not yet been extensively analyzed, which makes this study relevant. The conclusions of the study can be useful from the point of view of further improvement of the SPS and increasing the effectiveness of the implemented state measures.

Findings. The results indicate that the new SPS has retained its multi-stage nature, despite attempts to optimize documents. Another problem was the low autonomy of local authorities in matters of strategic planning. A separate block of questions touched on the methodological and substantive shortcomings of the documents of the SPS. The last conclusion is the weak harmonization of budget and strategic planning.

Authors: Fang Xie Fang Xie , Fang Xie Jing-Liang Chen , Jing-Liang Chen Yi Zhu , Yi Zhu Hong-Yan Zheng
Published: July 2023

In order to overcome the data sparsity problem in service description text and to improve the web service clustering quality, we propose a web service clustering method with semantic enhancement based on RGPS (Role-Goal-Process-Service) Framework and Bi-term Topic Model (BTM). First, we extend service description text’s feature according to RGPS meta-model framework. Also, we generate the service latent feature by BTM. Then, we employ K-means on the generated features. The results of experiments on service registry PWeb show that this method can get better clustering performance in purity and entropy. It is proved that this method has great efficiency compared with the baseline methods K-means, Agglomerative and LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation). This paper enhances the service clustering performance and creates foundation work for service organization and recommendation.

 
Carbon monoxide profile variability over the Manaus Metropolitan Region and its relations with biomass burning
Authors: Signori Renato Trevisan , Souza Rodrigo Augusto Ferreira de , Souza Rita Valeria Andreoli de , Ribeiro Igor Oliveira , Toshie Kayano Mary
Published: July 2023

The present study analyzes the temporal variability of carbon monoxide (CO) over the Manaus Metropolitan Region (MMR) and its relations with nearby fires based on data obtained by the environmental satellite AQUA, for the 2003–2020 period. For this purpose, wavelet transform analyses and wavelet coherence analyses were used. The results show a well-defined seasonal behavior, with an increase and decrease in mean CO concentrations during dry and wet seasons, respectively. Semiannual and annual scales represent around 95 % of CO temporal variability in lower troposphere (500 to 1,000 hPa) and are associated with rains and fires dynamics in the region. In terms of interannual variability, multiple variability scales (1.2–2, 2.5–3 and 4.5–6 years) were observed, which explain around 10–15 % of concentration variability near surface. The results suggest that climatic variations, associated with the tropical Pacific and Atlantic sea surface temperature variations, on these different time scales, affect rain dynamics and, consequently, fires and CO concentration. Specifically, in 2015/16, the combined effect from different variability scales acted to prolong the dry period over the region, which contributed to increase fires and the CO to reach higher values compared to previous years. These results show a new aspect of the importance of evaluating the combined effect of different climate variability scales on CO concentrations in the atmosphere.

Authors: Ahmed Halah Khaleel , Al-Fattal Ahmad Naeem Mahdi , Tater Jawaher M.
Published: July 2023

Background This study aims at assessing the age and gender distribution among patients with various clinical conditions who sought treatment at the Department of Oral and Cranio-maxillofacial Surgery in Al Kindy Teaching Hospital in Baghdad, Iraq.

Methods The research data for this study was obtained from the Department of Oral and Cranio-maxillofacial Surgery at Al Kindy Teaching Hospital in Baghdad, Iraq. The data was collected between April 2019 and February 2020, involving 1443 patients spanning various age groups, from infants to 85-year-olds. The patients are categorized based on age, sex, and diagnosis using the International Classification of Diseases. The diagnosed diseases were classified according to the Contemporary Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery textbook guidelines.

Results The majority of patients are in their second decades, and most of the samples that attended the hospital are from the male category, female patients had to do with temporomandibular problems, trauma, and surgical extraction. In contrast, the most common category among male patients is trauma, followed by jaw fractures. Trauma, Follow-up, Facial Palsy, Ranula, Trigeminal Neuralgia, and Parotid Gland Swelling were all significantly different between males and females when compared on their own in each category.

Conclusions Males exhibit a higher hospital attendance rate compared to females, with males being more prone to oral trauma, while females are more susceptible to temporomandibular joint disorders. Young children have a greater likelihood of experiencing trauma rather than jaw fractures due to the presence of a thicker adipose tissue layer and the absence of paranasal sinus pneumatization.

Authors: Okafor Ugochukwu Chukwuma , Anastasia Onwugbenu Nneoma , Dike Umeoduagu Nnamdi
Published: July 2023

The microbiological and physicochemical properties of bore-hole waters from water reservoirs in selected hostels in ifite-Awka metropolis were evaluated. Five (5) bore-hole water samples from stored-water tanks were evaluated to ascertain the physicochemical parameters, presence and population of different bacterial and fungal groups. Total heterotrophic bacterial (THC) counts ranged from 1.20x103 cfu/ml to 6.5x103 while the fungal counts spanned from 2.5x103 cfu/ml to 8.9x103 cfu/ml. Bacteria obtained from the borehole waters include Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli and Shigella spp. E. coli was the most prevalent with MPN 380/100 ml of water reported in sample A while Shigella sp. was the least prevalent with MPN 130/100 ml of water reported in samples B and E. Fungal isolates obtained include Aspergillus species, Candida species, Acremonium species and Cladosporium species. E. coli and Aspergillus spp. were predominant than other isolates. The pH ranged from 6.65 to 7.47; hardness ranged from 92 mg/l to 156 mg/l and Iron concentration ranges from 0.267 ppm to 0.378 ppm, phosphate contents ranged from 2.375 to 6.125 while Nitrate contents ranged from 1.071 to 6.214. The presence of these organisms in water meant for municipalities indicates faecal contamination. This calls for improved sanitary conditions of reservoir tanks in these locations and beyond.

Authors: Pérez Sánchez Amaury , Alfonso Fernández Helen María , Valero Almanza Greisy Ivety , Ranero González Elizabeth , Pérez Sánchez Eddy Javier
Published: July 2023

The use of plate heat exchangers is desirable since they have a simple compact construction, are reliable, and very efficient at small temperature difference between fluids. In the present work the thermo-hydraulic rating of a proposed gasketed-plate heat exchanger was carried out, in order to heat a methanol stream. A safety factor of 1.62, a percent over surface of 3.91% and a cleanliness factor of 0.962 was obtained. The calculated values of the pressure drops for both the hot water and methanol streams were 47,199.05 Pa and 78,414.61 Pa, respectively, while the pumping power required for those both streams were 4.81 kW and 11.38 kW, respectively. The proposed gasketed-plate heat exchanger can be used for the requested heat transfer service since the percent over surface is lower than 25% and the calculated pressure drop of both streams are below the maximum permissible pressure drop established by the process.

Authors: Aziziansiadar Masoumeh
Published: July 2023

One of the things that is followed in monitoring systems is the detection of rare events in real time among the multitude of common events in social networks. Considering the lack of recognition and unavailability of rare events, their detection is considered a challenge. In this research, a new architecture and approach based on generative adversarial network infrastructure was presented to detect common and rare events in real time. In this research, the attempt is to provide a new approach to the performance of architectures based on deep generative adversarial networks, a way to solve various problems without supervision with a semi-supervisory approach and adversarial generative infrastructure. This architecture is based on the automatic extraction and use of video input data features. The results of the equal error rate in the UCSDped1 and UCSDped2 datasets were 2.0 and 17.0, respectively, in the performance characteristic curve.

Способствуют ли черты Темной триады большему риску в ситуации проигрыша?
Authors: Корниенко Дмитрий , Балева Милена , Ячменёва Надежда
Published: July 2023

Представлено исследование различий в принятии рискованных решений в азартной игре в связи с выраженностью черт Темной триады (макиавеллизм, нарциссизм, психопатия). Черты Темной триады показали связь с принятием рискованных решений в различных ситуациях и, в частности, в экономических играх. Кроме того, они обнаруживают связь с личностными диспозициями, описывающими предрасположенность к риску. Предполагается, что респонденты с более выраженными чертами Темной триады будут демонстрировать большую склонность к риску в игре, которая предполагает случайную вероятность выигрыша. Также рассматривается чувствительность к негативному опыту проигрышей в форме стремления прекратить игру. Выборку исследования составили 462 студента (возраст от 17 до 46 лет), которым предлагалось сыграть в компьютерную игру, в ходе которой разыгрывались виртуальные деньги. Игра предполагала 5 раундов, в каждом из которых участник принимал решение продолжить игру (идти на риск) или остановиться и получить небольшое, но гарантированное вознаграждение. При этом у респондентов были диагностированы черты Темной триады и Большой пятерки, а также самооценка социально-экономического статуса. Для анализа различий в личностных чертах участники исследования были разделены на группы, различающиеся в проявлении рискованного поведения. Различия между группами проявились для нарциссизма, общего показателя Темной триады и экстраверсии. Однако было обнаружено, что самооценка социально-экономического статуса является фактором, в большей степени определяющим рискованное поведение. Различия в чертах Темной триады, несмотря на наличие связи с рискованным поведением, исчезают при контроле самооценки социально-экономического статуса.

VLU EFL Students’ Perceptions Toward the Use of Collaborative Writing
Authors: Van Cong Hoang Truong , Tran Thi Thanh Mai
Published: July 2023

Collaborative writing has a good influence on both students' writing skills and their perceptions of the strategy itself. However, the existing studies did not examine the more personal and subjective views of the participants. Moreover, the previous studies were limited to exploring the solutions to the problems that EFL English majors faced during their learning process. The purpose of the study is to investigate the perceptions of the English-majored juniors at Van Lang University towards the collaborative writing technique. To get optimal results, the third-year English majors at Van Lang University who participated in the Writing 5 course and experienced the collaborative writing method completed the questionnaire and answered the interview questions. The result of the study indicates that the collaborative writing strategy has a positive impact on students' writing outcomes. Also, this study's findings show a high percentage of students gain great satisfaction from the strategy. Therefore, it is believed that students' writing skills can be enhanced by using collaborative writing techniques as an effective learning tool.

У даній науковій статті автором здійснено дослідження досвіду кримінальної відповідальності за протиправний вплив на результати офіційних спортивних змагань Ізраїлю, республіки Сан-Марино та штату Техас. Стаття є продовження циклу публікацій, які присвячені питанню дослідження зарубіжного досвіду кримінальної відповідальності за протиправний вплив на результати офіційних спортивних змагань. За результатом даного дослідження автором було встановлено, що досвід зарубіжних країн щодо кримінальної відповідальності за протиправний вплив на результати офіційних спортивних змагань має свої певні особливості в залежності від відношення досліджуваної країни до тієї чи іншої правової сім’ї. Разом із тим, наголошено, що задля всебічності та повноти дослідження, при огляді досвіду зарубіжного законодавства щодо встановлення кримінальної відповідальності за певний вид протиправних діянь, науковцям необхідно звертати увагу не тільки на країни романо-германської правової сім’ї. Вихід за рамки дослідження країн колишнього радянського союзу, може допомогти якісно по-новому поглянути на регулювання суспільних відносин та практику кримінальної відповідальності зокрема.

Identifying and Navigating the Current Trends in Business Librarianship and Data Librarianship
Authors: Pistone Renee
Published: July 2023

These trends in business librarianship and data librarianship matter for the management of today’s academic libraries and this topic is important to discuss because librarians must respond to the developments in data science and big data. Industry leaders such as Yuanqing Yango, CEO of Lenovo refer to “new IT” and the coming revolution stemming from the usage of smart devices, edge and cloud computing, 5G networks, and (AI) Artificial Intelligence (Lenovo, 2022). Lenovo (2022) researchers undertook a study of 500 Chief Technology Officers (CTOs)from diverse industries to ascertain their perceptions about the future of technology. Both scholars and industry leaders alike agree that the technologies that will dominate will be forged so that humanity can meet the challenges of the future and the control of information will be at the forefront of these changes. Information professionals must learn about and master the technologies that industry leaders are reimagining as innovations that will try to improve our lives because librarianship is becoming increasingly data-driven. Faculty, staff, and students rely on information professionals to help them to understand the role of “new IT” and the opportunities that it creates. We also need more informed professionals because research is data-driven. More decision makers are using big data to make effective organizational decisions. Librarians must be cognizant of the trends that are governing innovations in technology to effectively provide information services to key stakeholders.
Influence of a Multiphase Inquiry-based Learning Project on Students' Science Literacy
Authors: Machado Crystal , Nahar Lizoon
Published: July 2023

Globally, fewer students are choosing careers in science. In developing countries like Bangladesh, this attrition is often attributed to limited access to laboratories, lack of qualified science teachers, and limited use of student-centered strategies (SCS). Educators are attempting to design professional development programs to empower teachers with innovative teaching methods that will eventually boost enrolment in STEM-related fields. With this end in mind, we designed a six-month-long grant-funded project that equipped five urban schools in Bangladesh with 20 science toolkits. We also provided 20 science teachers and five site coordinators with ongoing professional development to support use of these toolkits with 109 students for inquiry-based learning (IBL). Using an explanatory sequential design, we analyzed quantitative and qualitative data from three surveys. We also used transcripts from interviews with five site coordinators and four Zoom panel presentations to understand the numeric findings. While quantitative analysis with SPSS revealed that teacher-centered strategies (TCS) continue to be widespread in Bangladesh, we noted that the IBL project influenced student outcomes in several ways. The qualitative data confirmed that teachers who receive training and support over an extended period implemented SCS quite effectively. Both quantitative and qualitative findings revealed that a shift from TCS to SCS enhanced students' ability to hypothesize, experiment, and make real-life connections. In this paper, we describe statistically significant differences in the students’ knowledge across curriculum type and gender. We also describe the influence of the project on student attitudes.
Philosophical Examination of the Unique Characteristics and Cultural Identity of the Igbo People
Authors: Onwuatuegwu Ignatius Nnaemeka
Published: July 2023

This article explores the intrinsic characteristics of the Igbo people from a philosophical perspective. Drawing on Igbo cosmology and metaphysics, the paper argues that the Igbo possess certain distinctive traits such as communalism, practical intelligence, and a deep sense of spirituality. These traits are embedded in the Igbo worldview and shape their cultural practices and social structures. The article further suggests that an understanding of the Igbo's intrinsic characteristics can deepen intercultural understanding and promote a more equitable and inclusive global society. The writer, therefore employed the hermeneutics methodological approach. This approach involves a critical examination of the beliefs, values, and practices of the Igbo people, and how they relate to their worldview and metaphysics. It also considers the ways in which these intrinsic characteristics shape the social structures and cultural practices of the Igbo people, and how they can contribute to a more equitable and inclusive global society.
Exploring the Implementation and Impact of Community Policing Strategies in Indonesia: A Case Study of Jakarta
Authors: Novianto Ryno
Published: July 2023

An growing number of police agencies are implementing a strategy called "community policing," which seeks to improve law enforcement by fostering trust and communication between police and the communities they serve. This study examines the implementation and outcomes of community policing tactics in Jakarta, Indonesia, through the lens of a case study analysis. The study found that while community policing can have a positive impact on various aspects of community life, there are challenges and limitations to its implementation in Jakarta, including the lack of resources and funding, the hierarchical structure of the police force, and the lack of public awareness and understanding of community policing. The study recommends that Jakarta's policymakers and law enforcement agencies allocate adequate resources and funding to community policing initiatives in order to address these problems.

Published: July 2023

O presente artigo tem por intuito produzir uma leitura sobre a modernidade na Inglaterra do século XIX por meio de alguns contos e romances de Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A análise aborda quatro casos do detetive Sherlock Holmes, conhecidos como: “A Banda Pintada”, “O Pé do Diabo”, “Um Escândalo na Boêmia” e “Um Estudo em Vermelho”. Para tal análise, foi utilizado como aporte autores como Carlo Ginzburg (1989), Marshal Berman (1982), Sandra Jathay Pesavento (2002), Thompson (1998) e Eric Hobsbawm (2009), para compreender em detalhes como as constantes transformações do espaço, das mentalidades e das representações, tanto masculinas quanto femininas, ganham novas máscaras, proporções e condições. Além disso, mostramos como estes escritos podem ser – se bem trabalhados – uma das fontes mais relevantes para o estudo destas questões, pois congruente ao dinamismo de suas narrações, diálogos e enredos, galgam as controvérsias, fragmentos e “mistérios” que forjam os reais desafios e experiências da modernidade.
