Contention and congestion minimization in OBS networks
Authors:   , Gomba Ndadzibaya Masimba
Published: September 2021

All-optical networks (AON) based optical burst switching (OBS) promise to be the ultimate backbone network technology solution for next generation( NG) as well as fu­ ture generation (FG)networks because of their relatively higher resources utilization, great flexibility at lower cost and potential massive bandwidth capacities both at trans­ mission and switching levels. By design, buffering is not provisioned in interior nodes. End users exchange data with one another through end-to-end light channels, called lightpaths in which wavelength continuity is maintained. In practice, their establish­ ing, in a cost effective manner remains an inescapable challenge. The routing and wave­ length assignment (RWA) problem entices successful establishment of a physical route for each lightpath connection request, assigning a wavelength to each route and at the same time ensm·ing end to end continuity, subject to the limited number of wave­ lengths. The wavelengths must be assigned such that no lightpaths can share the same wavelength simultaneously on a given fibre, or else contentions may occur. Some data bursts may be discarded whenever contention occurs among multiple bursts that arrive simultaneously at any interior node using the same wavelength and are intended for the same output port. Because of the buffer-less nature of OBS networks, conten­ tion/congestion in the core network can quickly lead to degradation in overall network performance at moderate to high traffic levels due to heavy burst loses. In this disser­ tation we propose and evaluate a congestion management approach we refer to as '"en­ hanced congestion management" which gears towards rendering and guaranteeing a consistent QoS as well as rational and fair use of available network links. Simulation results show that the scheme can effectively minimize both contention and congestion and at the same time improving both throughput and effective utilization under mod­ erate to high network traffic loads

Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy: to infinity and beyond?
Authors: Moreels T.G. , Monino L
Published: September 2021

With the advent of device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE) in the early 2000s, endoscopic access to the entire small bowel is possible nowadays (1). And yet, there is still room for improvement. Total enteroscopy remains a time-consuming procedure, often combining the antegrade (oral) and retrograde (anal) approach with only a reasonable chance to obtain complete endoscopy of the entire small bowel (2). Therefore, the aim is to go faster, deeper and to perform more advanced therapeutic interventions within the long and tortuous small bowel. Moreover, DAE was also shown to be effective to perform endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with surgically altered anatomy and to complete colonoscopy in patients with previously incomplete conventional colonoscopy due to long dolichocolon (3). The latest DAE development is Motorized Spiral Enteroscopy (MSE), initially conceptualized as a manually driven rotational spiral overtube by Paul A. Akerman, and further developed and commercialized as a motorized spiral overtube by the Olympus Medical Systems Corporation (4). Initial feasibility trials have shown that MSE can compete with already available DAE techniques (single- and double-balloon enteroscopy) with regard to diagnostic yield and endotherapy within the small bowel (5,6). However, being a short type enteroscope of 168 cm (as compared to the 200 cm long single- and double-balloon enteroscopes), MSE appears to be even more effective in obtaining deep and total enteroscopy with a relatively short procedural duration (2,6). In addition, the working channel diameter is increased to 3.2 mm (as compared to 2.8 mm) with an extra irrigation channel, facilitating therapeutic interventions within the small bowel. This faster and deeper (but more aggressive) enteroscopy technique comes with the price of an increased risk of mucosal injuries (ranging from superficial bruising to laceration and even perforation) within the oesophagus and the small bowel, luckily remaining asymptomatic most of the time without any clinical consequence (6). So far, this promising new technique has the potential of becoming a gamechanger in the still evolving field of deep enteroscopy.

Authors: Al-Kayssi A.W. , Salman Ahmed Dawood
Published: September 2021

"A newly proposed concept of soil physical quality and its development as a guide to assess the extent of soil degradation or improvement and to determine appropriate soil management. The study aimed to: evaluate the soil physical quality index of gypsiferous soils under different management systems as well as determine the optimal pore size distribution and the optimum moisture-tension curve based on the quality of the physical soil properties under different management systems and diagnose the distribution of pore sizes and moisture-tension curves that could be used to predict the changes in the physical quality of gypsiferous soils because of the applied agricultural management pattern. Physical indicators measured on undisturbed soil samples collected from 15 selected sites in Salah Aldeen Governorate, with different gypsum content (30 to 301 g kg-1 soil). The results showed that the best distribution of measured pore size (h) S *, (Normalized pore volume) was for a group of soils that were largely similar in terms of shape and location parameters. Accordingly, the optimal pore distribution considered representative of these soils. The results showed the possibility of using the (Dexter-S) indicator correctly and in coordination with the distribution of pore size and the soil moisture characteristic curve to calculate the physical soil quality in soils of different gypsum content.

"This study was conducted to determine the effect of gypsum content and depth of water head on displacement and transport of nitrate in gypsiferous soil under unsaturated flow conditions. Also, to predict the concentration of nitrate using convection dispersion model (CDE). Soil columns with 63, 97, 142, 180, and 236 g kg-1 of gypsum were prepared. 200 mg L-1 of potassium nitrate were added to the surface of each soil column. The soil columns were leached by intermittent ponding in 2 pore volumes of water. A constant head depth of 0.005, 0.01, and 0.015 m of water was kept on the top of soil column. Samples of effluent were collected for measuring nitrate concentration. The CDE model was analyzed to estimate the best fitting between measured and predicted nitrate concentration, and to calculate dispersion coefficient (D), the retardation factor (R), and Peclet number (P). Results showed that CDE can be used to predict nitrate concentration in soil. Good fit was observed to describe breakthrough curves (BTC's), and predict the transport of nitrates in the leachate of gypsum soil columns. D values increased with the increase in the content of soil gypsum and decrease with increase the water head. Its values ranged between 6.59-9.87 m 2h-1. P and pore water velocity (v) decreased with the increase in soil gypsum content. The R values were less than 1 for all treatments"

How to Improve Success Rate of Rigid Gas Permeable Lens Prescription
Authors: Park Young Kee
Published: September 2021

A rigid gas permeable (RGP) lens is good for correcting corneal astigmatism without inducing corneal hypoxia. However, despite the optical advantage of the RGP lens for correcting visual acuity, there may be circumstances in which a patient may choose not to wear the RGP lens. For example, because the RGP lens is smaller than the cornea, it may cause a foreign body sensation due to lens movement and blurring, especially at night. Thus, the success of the RPG lens prescription depends on the selection of the proper candidates and lenses, with appropriate fitting and follow-up management by a doctor.

The study aimed to determine the relationship between organizational commitment and job satisfaction of individuals working in the sports sector. The sample of the study consisted of a total of 496 people (375 males and 121 females), who were working in a private company operating in the sports sector in Istanbul, and selected by easy sampling method. In addition to the personal information form, the “Organizational Commitment Scale” developed by Meyer and Allen (1984, 1997) and adapted to Turkish by Boylu et al. (2007), and the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale, developed by Weiss et al. (1967) and adapted into Turkish by Baycan (1985) were used as data collection tools. Analyzes were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 package program. Independent t-test, ANOVA and Pearson Correlation analyses were performed to analyse the data. In addition, the analyzes were performed at a 95% confidence interval. Analysis results showed that there was a significant difference in the continuance commitment sub-dimension of individuals according to the gender variable. It was determined that there was a significant difference in both the job satisfaction levels and the affective and normative commitment levels of the individuals according to their welfare status. Moreover, it was determined that there was a significant difference in all sub-dimensions of the job satisfaction scale and in all sub-dimensions of the organizational commitment scale according to the educational status of the participants. As a result, it was determined that there was a positive and moderate relationship between “Affective Commitment” and “Continuance Commitment” and “Internal Satisfaction” and “External Satisfaction”. Another result, it was determined that the organizational commitment and job satisfaction levels of the individuals differed according to their socio-demographic characteristics, and as the affective and continuance commitment of the individuals increased, their job satisfaction increased.
First occurrences of the host/parasitoid relationship in Brazil and Peru: Bibliographic summary
Authors: Carlos Henrique Marchiori
Published: September 2021

It is common for parasitoidism to modify the behavior of the host species, facilitating the development and propagation of the parasitoid and establishing a highly specific relationship. In this case, herbivores such as cattle, sheep, deer, and rabbits are the definitive host of the parasitoid. The objective of this review is to describe the first occurrence of the host/parasitoid relationship in Brazil and Peru. The mini review consists of a bibliographic summary of parasitoids of the Order Hymenoptera parasitoids collected in Brazil and Peru. The research was carried out in studies related to the theme with emphasis on the quantitative aspects of the Superfamily, Family, Subfamilies, Genera, and Species (taxonomic groups). A literature search was carried out containing articles published from 2000 to 2021. The mini review was prepared in Goiânia, Goiás, from July to September 2021, using the Electronic Scientific Library Online (Scielo) and internet. Since the relationship between parasitoids and their hosts is very specific, it is common for agricultural pests to be naturally controlled through parasitoidism. Wasps of the Ichneumonoidea and Braconidae family respectively parasitize caterpillars of butterflies and moths, and even aphids.
Lutto perinatale: l’importanza delle parole
Authors: Melandri Enrica
Published: September 2021

Losing a child during the perinatal period, regardless of the cause and the gestational age, is a profoundly painful experience for the parents because it abruptly interrupts a bond that began well before the conception and the birth. A recent research suggests that the healthcare professionals’ language has the capability to intensify or mitigate the couple’s suffering. In particular, while the definition “abortion” prevents the parents from expressing their feelings toward friends and relatives as if suffering is not licit or appropriate, speaking of “loss of a child” helps the parents with processing their pain.

Störung als Chance
Authors: Störmer Eckart
Published: September 2021

Schule kann sich weiterentwickeln, wenn sie Störungen als Hinweise auf Bruchstellen versteht, in de­nen Chancen liegen. Empathisches Zuhören hilft uns, die hinter den Störungen liegenden Ursachen zu ergründen, die Hinweise geben, wie in welche Richtung sich die Schule verändern sollte. Dies wird am Beispiel der Tagesschule Oberglatt gezeigt. Die vier Arten des Zuhörens und der Begriff des sozialen Feldes von Otto Scharmer (2020) werden als hilfreiche Werkzeuge auf diesem Weg beschrieben.

Die Ursachen dieser Matthäuseffekte können in eine sozioökonomische und eine neu­rowissenschaftliche Kategorie eingeteilt und auf ihre Veränderbarkeit analysiert werden. Daraus las­sen sich Maßnahmen für die Weiterentwicklung schulischer Begabungsprogramme ableiten
Wertevermittlung literaturpädagogisch und -didaktisch
Authors: Spinner Kaspar H.
Published: September 2021

Welche Werte können durch Literatur vermittelt werden? Welche Rolle spielt Wertevermittlung durch Literatur im Kontext von Schule? Damit nicht analytisches Zerpflücken, sondern ethische Orientierung im Vordergrund steht, stellt der Literaturwissenschaftler und -didaktiker Kaspar H. Spinner in diesem Beitrag vier Hauptaspekte vor, die bei der Wertevermittlung durch Literatur im schulischen Kontext von zentraler Bedeutung sind. Denn Wert erkennen ist wichtiger als bewerten, das könnte die Maxime sein.
Die Wirkung von Theaterpädagogik
Authors: Ruttner-Vicht Gregor
Published: September 2021

Durch Theaterpädagogik erfahren Kinder und Jugendliche den kreativen Umgang mit Unsicherheit und Komplexität, kooperatives Arbeiten in heterogenen Gruppen sowie das Erleben von Selbstwirksamkeit. So werden sie darauf vorbereitet, in einer sich ständig verändernden Gesellschaft zurechtzukommen und ein erfüllendes Leben zu leben. Die künftigen Generationen sollen die Welt nach Corona nicht so aufbauen, wie sie vorher war, sondern solidarischer und gerechter. Ein Vorschlag, welche Rolle die Theaterpädagogik dabei spielen kann, wird im Folgenden skizziert. Die Überlegungen basieren auf den Ergebnissen eines Vortrags mit partizipativer Diskussion im Rahmen des Bildungsmosaiks „Bildung | Corona“ im Frühjahr 2021 an der Pädagogischen Hochschule Niederösterreich.
Umgang mit Fragen der Werteerziehung
Authors: Anselm Sabine
Published: September 2021

Lehrpersonen sind zentrale Mitgestalter schulischer Werteerziehung. Diese ist als fächerübergreifen­des Bildungsziel in den Lehrplänen aller Schularten verankert und erfordert einen entsprechenden Kompetenzerwerb der Unterrichtenden. Somit besteht Handlungsbedarf bereits in der universitären Lehrerbildung – eine Herausforderung, die an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München die For­schungsstelle Werteerziehung und Lehrerbildung annimmt.
Natur & Kultur III

Wasser ist immer gleich viel – so lautet die Grundformel, die wir über den Wasserkreislauf auf dem Planeten Erde lernen. Aber ist Wasser immer gleich viel wert? ‚Jeder Tropfen zählt‘ ist eine Redewen­dung, die sowohl den materiellen als auch den immateriellen Wert des Wassers umfasst. Die Verein­ten Nationen haben für die Jahre 2018 bis 2028 die „Water Action Decade“ ausgerufen, mit einem alarmierenden Auftrag: eine globale Wasserkrise abzuwenden. Im Zentrum steht Nachhaltigkeitsziel Nr. 6: Sauberes Wasser und sanitäre Einrichtungen. Dieser Beitrag beleuchtet Möglichkeiten der kultu­rellen Bildung, als Beitrag zur UN-Dekade den Wert des Wassers in Schulprojekten zu fokussieren. Denn nicht nur jeder Tropfen, auch jeder Schritt in Richtung Nachhaltigkeit zählt. Statt Krisenmodus und Katastrophenszenarien steht dabei der kreative Prozess der Wertschöpfung auf dem Weg zur Wertschätzung im Mittelpunkt.
Wertstoff
Authors: Sippl Carmen
Published: September 2021

Der Duden definiert ‚Wertstoff‘ als „im Abfall, Müll enthaltener Altstoff, der als Rohstoff erneut verwendet werden kann“ (Duden online). Dass hier dem Weggeworfenen, Entsorgten ein Wert zugeschrieben wird, erscheint zunächst paradox: Warum sollte man etwas Wertvolles wegwerfen, ein Ding, dem eine solch besondere Qualität (ein Wert) innewohnt, sodass es jemandem bedeutsam ist?
Literatur – Laboratorium der Zukunft
Authors: Sippl Carmen
Published: September 2021

‚Werteerziehung‘ ist ein sperriges Wort. Der mitschwingende strenge Unterton lässt fast vergessen, dass es sich dabei um eine reflexive Bildungspraxis handelt. Für eine solche aber ist die Schule der zentrale Ort. Der Beitrag stellt einen Sammelband und eine Monografie vor, die "Werteerziehung mit Literatur" im Deutschunterricht vielperspektivisch ausloten und anhand von konkreten Beispielen vorstellen. Die Modellierung und Explizierung einer Wertreflexionskompetenz baut eine Brücke zwischen Theorie und Praxis und zeigt die Bedeutung ethischer Bildung als Unterrichtsprinzip für die Schulkultur auf.
Der Unterricht im Gegenstand Kulturpflege

Published: September 2021

Die private Berufsschule der SPAR AG in Wien bereichert seit 1958 mit Kulturpflege als eigenem Ge­genstand die Schulkultur und Schulentwicklung durch Wertedialog, interkulturelles und interreligiöses Lernen. Die dabei im Begegnungslernen erworbenen Kompetenzen unterstützen das Miteinanderle­ben, -lernen und -arbeiten der Lehrlinge und befruchten die praktische Ausbildung in den Filialen im Umgang mit den Mitarbeitenden und der Kundschaft. Die wertschätzende und anerkennende Wahr­nehmung von Diversität und Differenz ist der Motor des Gegenstandes, der kontextuell in alle fächer­übergreifenden Projekte eingebunden ist.
Notlösung PTS
Authors: Velickovic Birgit
Published: September 2021

Seit vielen Jahren kämpft die Polytechnische Schule um Anerkennung. Der Ruf, nur als Notlösung her­zuhalten, wenn alle anderen Möglichkeiten ausgeschöpft sind, wird der Vielfalt dieses Schultyps nicht gerecht. Ganzheitliches Lernen und ein Fokus auf soziale Aspekte werden durch ein engagiertes Lehrer­*innenteam sowie eine Schulleitung ermöglicht. Soziale Ungleichheiten der Jugendlichen im Prozess der Transition von der Schule in die Berufswelt sollen durch die Führung durch das Schuljahr ent­schärft werden, sodass keine Nachteile entstehen.
Welche Werte wollen wir?
Authors: Bittner Franz Gunter
Published: September 2021

Im Spannungsfeld der Pole Emanzipation und Sozialisation soll Erziehung Werte vermitteln, die den Zusammenhalt der Gesellschaft stärken. Die Vermittlung soll in einem Lebensraum passieren, in dem die entsprechenden Werte positiv erfahrbar und erlebbar werden, sodass die Jugendlichen sich mit ihnen auseinandersetzen, sie kritisch hinterfragen und für sich adaptieren können. Lehrer*innen sollen auf ihre Funktion als Wertevermittler*innen vorbereitet und in dieser Funktion gestärkt und unter­stützt werden.

So when the centuries passed kingdoms tried to control there never kingdoms and succeed in some extent. On this account empire obtained taxes from princely states. In this regard Greeks tried to expert their kingdom till the ends of the world. On this account the Greek warrior son of the Philip of Macedonia Alexander The Great conquered the entire world and controlled politically with his leadership. Later on Romans extended their kingdom and ruled for some centuries under the leadership of Antonio and Julius Ceasor. In the course of time European navigators discovered the new lands of the entire world. So Dutch people, French people, Porchuguice people and English people competed with one another to control over the geographical territories and natural recourses. They also asserted their power over the lands. At last queen’s English army could have control over many colonies in the world. So many centuries they ruled and drove the wealth of the nations to England in the name of the trade and “civilizing the uncivilized eastern lands”. In the post independent era India is considered as the developing nation in the world and in the post modern era India leads the world in field and became a leader to the world. So the preset investigation is on India’s leadership in the world and its achievements. The major focus is on the political leadership of India in the world.
