Eye-balling and heart girth models for live weight estimation of highly admixed Sudani Shorthorn Zebu Cattle for Precise Production and Veterinary Services
Authors: Alkhtib Ashraf , Almasri Obaida , Burton Emily , Wamatu Jane
Published: August 2022

Cattle production is a key pillar of food security in Africa. The majority of African cattle are highly admixed with unknown breed composition. Accurate estimation of the live weight (LW) of these cattle would improve the precision of feeding, veterinary services, and pricing resulting in an improvement in profitability. This study assessed estimating LW of admixed Sudani zebu cattle using eyeballing and heart girth (HG) models. Live weight and HG of 432 Baggara cattle, an admixed Sudani breed, were measured. Three models (a simple linear, a simple linear with box-cox transformed LW, and a quadratic) were generated using 382 heads and validated using 50 heads. A published model (LW (kg) = 3.54*HG (cm) - 322.63) was validated using the data of this study. The error of LW estimation by a breeder and five cattlemen were recorded. All constructed models had high R2 (0.725 - 0.728). However, the 95th percentile of the prediction error of the constructed and published models was higher than 20%. The 95th percentile of LW estimation error of all participants was high (>20%). Accordingly, HG models and eyeballing are not suitable methods to determine the LW of highly admixed zebu cattle for production, veterinary, and marketing purposes as they are prone to a high rate of error.
الصناعات الغذائية الأردنية في قرن: مراجعة
Authors: Amr Ayed , Abdullah Mai
Published: August 2022

شهد قطاع الصناعات الغذائية كباقي القطاعات الاقتصادية الأخرى نموا متسارعا ليواكب التغيرات الديموغرافية والصناعية والزراعية والاجتماعية بشتى مناحيها خلال المئة سنة الفائتة منذ تأسيس المملكة الأردنية الهاشمية سنة 1921. فمن بدايات متواضعة تمثلت في منشآت بسيطة لتلبية متطلبات المستهلك من الإنتاج الزراعي المحفوظ بالطرق البسيطة والطبيعية الى شركات متطورة جدا تنتج منتجات متنوعة تغطي احتياجات السوق المحلي وتصدر الى العشرات من دول العالم.

تبرز أهمية الصناعات الغذائية بالإضافة لدورها في تحقيق الأمن الغذائي في دعمها لقطاع الزراعة الأردني لاعتمادها على المنتج الزراعي كمادة أولية، كذلك الأمر, فإن قطاع الصناعات الغذائية يوفر فرص عمل لنسبة عالية من العمالة المحلية الماهرة وغير الماهرة.

رافقت نهضة الصناعات الغذائية ودعمتها عدة عوامل منها التشريعات بمستوياتها المتنوعة  التي سنتها الدولة لحماية المستهلك والمنتج وتوفير البيئة الاستثمارية المناسبة، وتوفر الأعداد الهائلة من المهندسين المؤهلين للعمل في مصانع الأغذية وإدارتها , وتطور البنية التحتية الضرورية لنمو القطاع التي تشمل الى جانب مقومات البنية التقليدية من مواصلات واتصالات وشبكة كهرباء ومياه تشمل بعض الصناعات الميكانيكية المتخصصة في إنتاج  بعض آلات الأغذية وبعض المكونات ومنافذ التسويق والشركات الاستشارية المتخصصة في إدارة الجودة والمختبرات الصناعية في القطاعين العام والخاص.

غير أن هذا القطاع يعاني كبقية القطاعات الاقتصادية من عدد من المشاكل أهمها المنافسة من البضائع الأجنبية والاعتماد على المواد الأولية المستوردة وارتفاع كلفة مدخلات الإنتاج وبعض السياسات الاقتصادية المعيقة لنمو القطاع، ما يؤكد الحاجة الى المزيد من الدعم الحكومي.  وبالرغم من كل هذه المعيقات فإن القطاع صامد ومستمر في النمو ومن المتوقع أن يتسارع نموه كما ونوعا في السنين القادمة ليبقى رافدا أساسياً للزراعة والصناعة. سنقوم في هذه الورقة ببحث أهم محطات تطور قطاع الصناعات الغذائية، بمناسبة المئوية الأولى لتأسيس المملكة، وإلقاء الضوء على خواصه ومشاكله ومواطن قوته وضعفه وكيف يمكننا تعظيم الاستفادة من التطورات التكنولوجية والديموغرافية التي من المتوقع حدوثها في السنين القادمة.
Current Prospects of Rome Criteria for the Diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Authors: Shammout Rasha Zaid , Ahmad Mousa Numan
Published: August 2022

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a worldwide health problem. It is often diagnosed by periodically- updated Rome symptom-based criteria, but the effects of recent updates on IBS diagnosis are not well clarified. This article overviews Rome III and IV IBS criteria, highlighting changes and updates that may impact IBS diagnosis. PubMed, Medline, Science Direct, Clinical trials.gov, and WHO databases were searched through to July 2021. Rome IV criteria are more restrictive, specific, and precise in patients′ diagnosis, selection, prognosis, and follow-up than Rome III criteria, in turn, IBS prevalence and number of patients with IBS-unspecified and IBS-mixed subtypes decrease, but overall symptom severity and patients′ homogeneity increase. In essence, the slight difference between Rome III and IV criteria reflects a considerable influence on IBS diagnosis, subtyping, and prevalence. Rome IV IBS patients form a homogeneous subset of Rome III IBS patients with more severe symptoms. Thus, in-depth research is warranted.
Sourdough use in Bread Production: Review
Authors: Amr Ayed S. , Alkhamaiseh Ashraf M.
Published: August 2022

The nutritional, economic, and social value of bread as a staple food commodity leads to the interest in optimizing its production and extending its shelf life through the enhancement of its flavor, textural and nutritional properties and delaying staling and microbial spoilage. However, the freshness, flavor, and textural quality are still major concerns and areas of development for the bread-making industry. Sourdough technology as a tool for enhancing the quality of pan bread, as discussed and studied by many researchers worldwide from different viewpoints, was reviewed in this article. The increased interest in sourdough-produced bread is a result of consumers’ demand for natural, flavor-intensive bread with good keeping qualities and shelf life to satisfy their quest for a more natural and healthier lifestyle. This review focuses mainly on describing the natural sourdough techniques developed by the conventional and modern approaches over the past decades in the production of healthier bread. The methods used in the production of sourdoughs as well as their effect on the quality of the various bread types are also reviewed.
The Food Gap and Food Security of Poultry Meat in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Saied Maha Abdel-Fattah , Elsebaei Momtaz Nagy , Tawfik Rady Talaat , Ameen Faleh Abdelnaeem
Published: August 2022

This research aimed to explore the current situation of the food gap and the food security of poultry meat in the Kingdom, based on secondary published data by the food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, the General Authority for statistics, the Arab Organization for Agricultural Development (AOAD), and the international information Network. The results indicated a decline in self-sufficiency at a statistically significant annual rate of about 1.5%, representing about 2.9% of the annual average self-sufficiency rate during the study period. This is consistent with the economic logic in terms of increasing the volume of imports at a rate that exceeds 6.3% annually and exceeds the rate of consumption growth (4.43%) over the rate of growth of domestic production (1.73%). The apparent gap increased at an annual statistically significant rate of about 38.5 thousand tons, representing about 7.1% of the annual average gap estimated at around 543.8 thousand tons. It was also found that the most influential factors on the self-sufficiency ratio of poultry meat were the number of imports and the domestic production. Therefore, the strategic stock of poultry meat was estimated at around 621.4 thousand tons, which is sufficient for local consumption for about 7 months, while the value of the food security factor was about 0.58, reflecting the existence of relative food security of poultry meat in the Kingdom. The results of the study also showed the size of the additional loans and investments needed to achieve self-sufficiency and food security for poultry meat in the Kingdom in line with the National Transformation Program and the Kingdom's Vision 2030.

Authors: Alnwairan Thamer Ali
Published: August 2022

This study aimed to uncover the challenges facing small projects financed by Jordanian Islamic banks (Safwa Islamic Bank) and their impact on the developmental role of these projects. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher used the descriptive analytical approach, where the main data for the study was collected by designing a questionnaire for this purpose. The study sample included (139) project owners and it was conducted in the period from the end of 2019 to the beginning of 2020. The results of this study indicate that the challenges facing small enterprises are within the medium level, while the developmental, economic and social roles of small enterprises are at a high level. In addition, the study shows that the challenges affecting the developmental role of small enterprises are the challenges associated with the financing institutions, followed by the challenges related to the owners of these projects (clients), while the challenges of the project itself have no effect on the developmental role of these projects.
A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study- Knowledge, behavior and psychological change among Medical and Non-medical Students in Jordan during COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Al Jomaa Esraa Ebraheem , Al Meslamani Ahmad , Abazid Husam
Published: August 2022

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has rapidly spread worldwide, and it was officially declared to be a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. COVID-19 is associated with increasing morbidity and mortality and has impacted the lives of the global populations.

Aim: To compare the knowledge of medical and non-medical students at Jordanian universities in issues related to COVID-19 and to evaluate the psychological and behavioural changes in Jordanian students’ lives following directly/indirectly exposure to the COVID-19.

Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional online survey was sent to a convenience sample in Jordanian universities through social media (Facebook and WhatsApp) between 16th of June and 30th of June 2020. The questionnaire was designed to collect the demographic, participant’s source of information regarding COVID-19, knowledge on COVID-19, the psychological consequences of COVID-19, impact of COVID-19 on participant’s behaviour. The final version of the questionnaire was further tested for content validity by experts in the field. Chi-square test was used to find significant differences between the two groups.

Results:  A total of 912 participants completed the survey, with 507(55.6%) being medical students and 405(44.4%) being non-medical students. About 90% of students believed in the existence of corona virus (n=817), but not in the seriousness of the infection (n=85, 9.3%). The majority 82.2% (n=750) agreed that the fake news on social media caused panic situations. A total of 275 medical students avoided following news as compared to 187 non-medical students, and the difference was statistically significant (p-value = 0.003). There were 438 medical students and 338 non medical students who avoided leaving the house for unnecessary needs (p-value = 0.004).

Conclusion: Medical students had better knowledge and were more aware on COVID-19 than that of non-medical students; for this reason, medical students tended to change their behaviours in a good way. The current pandemic seems to impact the psychology of the both groups with no difference significant.
An Ultrastructural Perspective on Cell Death
Authors: Najdawi Zaid , Abu-Asab Mones
Published: August 2022

In the field of cell death, there is still a wide gap between the molecular models and their ultrastructural phenotypes. Because only very few published works included electron microscopy (EM) images, many ultrastructural features have not yet been incorporated into the descriptions of death modes. Some of the EM features that appear in dying cells have not been incorporated in describing death modes. It includes the accumulation of lipid droplets and glycogen, the appearance of extranuclear chromatin in the cytoplasm, and the various ways mitochondria become damaged. We argue that electron microscopy should be routinely included in these studies because it exposes some new features that molecular studies do not. It has successfully recognized new modes of cell death,such as entosis, methuosis, and paraptosis. Elucidating the precise sequence of events in death modes could be the cornerstone for offering the proper therapy of many diseases by slowing down or stopping the progression of degeneration. This review presents our own experience applying ultrastructural interpretations to death modes and explaining their biochemical implications. We complement the molecular and biochemical data and point out missing features that should be considered and studied.

Data-Driven Variable Impedance Control of a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis for Adaptive Speed and Incline Walking
Authors: Best Thomas , Welker Cara , Rouse Elliott , Gregg Robert
Published: August 2022

Most impedance-based walking controllers for powered knee-ankle prostheses use a finite state machine with dozens of user-specific parameters that require manual tuning by technical experts. These parameters are only appropriate near the task (e.g. walking speed and incline) at which they were tuned, necessitating many different parameter sets for variable-task walking. In contrast, this paper presents a data-driven, phase-based controller for variable-task walking that uses continuously-variable impedance control during stance and kinematic control during swing to enable biomimetic locomotion. After generating a data-driven model of variable joint impedance with convex optimization, we implement a novel task-invariant phase variable and real-time estimates of speed and incline to enable autonomous task adaptation. Experiments with above-knee amputee participants (N=2) show that our data-driven controller 1) features highly-linear phase estimates and accurate task estimates, 2) produces biomimetic kinematic and kinetic trends as task varies, leading to low errors relative to able-bodied references, and 3) produces biomimetic joint work and cadence trends as task varies. We show that the presented controller meets and often exceeds the performance of a benchmark finite state machine controller for our two participants, without requiring manual impedance tuning. 
Estimation of Lower Extremity Joint Moments and 3D Ground Reaction Forces Using IMU Sensors in Multiple Walking Conditions: A Deep Learning Approach
Authors: Hossain Md Sanzid Bin , Guo Zhishan , Choi Hwan
Published: August 2022

Human kinetics, specifically joint moments and ground reaction forces (GRFs) can provide important clinical information and can be used to control assistive devices. Traditionally, collection of kinetics is mostly limited to the lab environment because it relies on data that measured from a motion capture system and floor-embedded force plates to calculate the dynamics via musculoskeletal models. This spatially limited method makes it extremely challenging to measure kinetics outside the laboratory in a variety of walking conditions due to the expensive device setup and large space required. Recently, employing machine learning with IMU sensors are suggested as an alternative method for biomechanical analyses. Although these methods enable estimating human kinetic data outside the laboratory by linking IMU sensor data with kinetics dataset, they were limited to show inaccurate kinetic estimates even in highly repeatable single walking conditions due to the employment of generic deep learning algorithms. Thus, this paper proposes a novel deep learning model, KineticsFM-DLR-Ensemble-Net to estimate the hip, knee, and ankle joint moments in the sagittal plane and 3 dimensional ground reaction forces (GRFs) using three IMU sensors on the thigh, shank, and foot under several representative walking conditions in daily living, such as treadmill, level-ground, stair, and ramp with different walking speeds. This is the first study that implements both joint moments and GRFs in multiple walking conditions using IMU sensors via deep learning. Our deep learning model is versatile and accurate for identifying human kinetics across diverse subjects and walking conditions and our model outperforms state-of-the-art deep learning model for kinetics estimation by a large margin.

Field Methods for Academic Research: Interviews, Focus Groups and Questionnaires in Business and Management Studies
Authors: Remenyi Dan
Published: August 2022

Data is at the heart of most academic research and this book is about how to collect data outside of a laboratory. There are many different ways in which data can be collected and this textbook focuses on three of the most important for research students to be aware of and master. These are data collected through interviews, data collected as a result of focus groups and data collected with the use of a questionnaire. The writing of this book was inspired by observing just how badly these topics are often taught and so I have laid out straight forward but quite rigorous approaches to these data acquisition methods. These three data collection methods are not especially difficult but if they are not implemented correctly the data acquired may not be of much value to the researcher. Therefore, it is really important for researchers to be familiar with an effective way of implementing these methods. it is important to note this book does not attempt to advise on how to analyse or interpret the data which is acquired through these field methods. That task is left up to other books. The appendices in this book contain a number of examples of questionnaires as well as some additional advice in the use of questionnaires in academic research. Readers of this book have my best wishes in achieving their objectives through their work with academic research.

The past, present, and future of human challenge trials
Authors: Romanov Anna M. , Hong Jeongpyo
Published: August 2022

Human challenge trials (HCTs) have the potential to lay groundwork for critical advances in medicine. For centuries, physicians and researchers have intentionally infected human subjects to study disease transmission and design life-saving vaccines and treatments. Historically, many controlled infections occurred without informed consent from participants, but in the last century, several HCTs have been conducted which included full risk assessment, informed consent, and patient compensation. The COVID-19 pandemic has elevated the topic of establishing human challenge trials to accelerate the design and testing of protective vaccines. Thousands of people have expressed willingness to be infected with SARS-CoV-2, risking their health to help the global effort of ending the pandemic. Conducting such a study during a pandemic involves additional scientific and ethical precautions to minimize the risk to volunteers and to prevent community transmission; however, HCTs are not directly regulated. Here, we assess the scientific, ethical, and regulatory considerations of implementing HCTs for infectious disease models, particularly in pandemic settings.

Authors: Andriyanto Tri
Published: August 2022

Business Email Compromise (BEC) menjadi modus baru kejahatan siber dalam bentuk email phishing kepada target individu atau korporasi yang dituju guna meraih keuntungan finansial. Artikel ini membahas konsep BEC dalam lingkup komunikasi termediasi dan komunikasi persuasi dari pelaku kepada korban dan dikaitkan dengan teori Computer-Mediated Communication dan Model Kemungkinan Elaborasi. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan studi dokumentasi email yang terkait dengan BEC dan wawancara kepada sejumlah sumber primer yang terlibat dalam penanganan kasus BEC. Hasil analisis menunjukkan perkembangan komunikasi dalam BEC yang melalui fase komunikasi impersonal, interpersonal, dan hiperpersonal. Hasil analisis juga menunjukkan adanya upaya persuasi dari pelaku BEC dengan mengarahkan korban pada rute periferal dengan satu atau sedikit isyarat agar terjadi perubahan sikap dalam bentuk bersedia mentransfer sejumlah dana kepada rekening yang disediakan oleh pelaku. Bila rute periferal tidak cukup meyakinkan korban, pelaku BEC akan menggunakan rute sentral dengan membangun persuasi dari aspek motivasi, kemampuan, dan argumentasi yang kuat.

We present the discovery of the first millimeter afterglow of a short-duration γ-ray burst (SGRB) and the first confirmed afterglow of an SGRB localized by the GUANO system on Swift. Our Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) detection of SGRB 211106A establishes an origin in a faint host galaxy detected in Hubble Space Telescope imaging at 0.7 ≲ z ≲ 1.4. From the lack of a detectable optical afterglow, coupled with the bright millimeter counterpart, we infer a high extinction, A
V ≳ 2.6 mag along the line of sight, making this one of the most highly dust-extincted SGRBs known to date. The millimeter-band light curve captures the passage of the synchrotron peak from the afterglow forward shock and reveals a jet break at

Combining all published millimeter-band upper limits in conjunction with the energetics for a large sample of SGRBs, we find that energetic outflows in high-density environments are more likely to have detectable millimeter counterparts. Concerted afterglow searches with ALMA should yield detection fractions of 24%–40% on timescales of ≳2 days at rates of ≈0.8–1.6 per year, outpacing the historical discovery rate of SGRB centimeter-band afterglows.

We report on the discovery by the Zwicky Transient Facility of an asteroid orbiting entirely within the orbit of Venus, the first known example of this orbital class. The asteroid's perihelion is closer to the Sun than the aphelion of Mercury, and its diameter is estimated at about 1.8 km assuming an albedo of 0.2. The object was first observed on 2020 January 4 in four exposures obtained 7 minutes apart during an evening twilight survey. Its IAU-recognized designation is 594913 ‘Ayló’chaxnim.

We present the first measurements of H i galaxy scaling relations from a blind survey at z > 0.15. We perform spectral stacking of 9023 spectra of star-forming galaxies undetected in H i at 0.23 < z < 0.49, extracted from MIGHTEE-H i Early Science data cubes, acquired with the MeerKAT radio telescope. We stack galaxies in bins of galaxy properties (stellar mass M
*, star formation rateSFR, and specific star formation rate sSFR, with sSFR ≡ M
*/SFR), obtaining ≳5σ detections in most cases, the strongest H i-stacking detections to date in this redshift range. With these detections, we are able to measure scaling relations in the probed redshift interval, finding evidence for a moderate evolution from the median redshift of our sample z

Interestingly, our results are in good agreement with the predictions of the simba simulation. We conclude that this work sets novel important observational constraints on galaxy scaling relations.

We present a catalog of X-ray Detected Be Stars (XDBS) with 161 Be stars from the Be Star Spectra (BeSS) database having X-ray counterparts in the Chandra Source Catalog v2.0, XMM-Newton 4XMM-DR11 Catalog, or Swift 2SXPS Catalog. The multi-wavelength catalog includes accurate optical positions, X-ray properties (fluxes, photon indices and hardness ratios), optical, near-infrared and infrared photometry, source classifications (when available), and other properties including proper motions, effective temperatures, X-ray to optical flux ratios as well. We also provide a convenient https://home.gwu.edu/~kargaltsev/XDBS/graphical user interface which allows for easy visualization of the catalog content.
Dione’s Thermal Inertia and Bolometric Bond Albedo Derived from Cassini/CIRS Observations of Solar Eclipse Ingress
Authors: Howett Carly J. A. , Spencer John R.
Published: August 2022

On 2010 May 18 Cassini’s Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) observed Dione’s leading hemisphere as its surface went into solar eclipse. Surface temperatures derived from each of CIRS’ focal plane 3 (FP3, 600−1100 cm−1) show a rapid decrease in Dione’s surface temperature upon eclipse ingress. This change was compared to the model surface emission to constrain bolometric Bond albedo and thermal inertia. Seven FP3 detectors were able to constrain the observed surface’s thermophysical properties. The bolometric Bond albedo derived from these detectors are consistent with one another (0.54 ± 0.05 to 0.62 ± 0.03) and that of diurnal studies (e.g., 0.49 ± 0.11, Howett et al. 2014). This indicates that Dione’s albedo is uniform to within the uncertainties across the observed region of its leading hemisphere. The derived thermal inertias are consistent across detectors, 9 ± 4 J m−2 K−1 s−1/2 (MKS) to 16 ± 8 MKS, and with previous diurnal studies (e.g., 8 to 12 MKS, Howett et al. 2014). The skin depth probed by the eclipse thermal wave is ∼0.6–1 mm, which is much shallower than that probed by diurnal cycles (∼50 mm). Thus, the agreement in thermal inertia between the eclipse and diurnal studies indicates that Dione’s subsurface structure is uniform from submillimeter to subcentimeter depths. This is different from the Jovian system, where eclipse-derived thermal inertias are much lower than those derived from diurnal studies. The cause of this difference is not known, but one possibility is that the E-ring grains that bombard Dione’s leading hemisphere overturn it, causing uniformity to centimeter depths.

This manuscript is related to deriving some necessary and appropriate conditions for qualitative results about a class of Sturm-Liouville (S-L) boundary value problems (BVPs) with the $ p $ -Laplacian operator under a fractional $ \vartheta $ -Caputo type derivative. For the required results, we use Mönch's fixed point theorem with a measuring of non-compactness. Here, it is important to mention that the aforesaid equations belong to a highly significant class of problems that have many of the same properties and applications to solving various problems of dynamics and wave equations theory. For the demonstration of our theoretical results, we provide an example.
A Lightweight authentication scheme for IoT against Rogue Base Station Attacks
Authors: Salim Mikail Mohammed , Kang Jungho , Pan Yi , Park Jong Hyuk
Published: August 2022

Internet of Things (IoT) devices supporting intelligent cloud applications such as healthcare for hospitals rely on connecting with local base stations and access points to provide rich data analysis and real-time services to users. Devices authenticate with local base stations and perform handover operations to connect with access points with higher signal strength. Attackers disguise as valid base stations and access points using publicly accessible SSID information connect with local IoT devices during the handover process and give rise to data integrity and privacy concerns. This paper proposes a lightweight authentication scheme for private blockchain-based networks for securing devices from rogue base stations during the handover process. An authentication certificate is designed for base stations and machines in local clusters using SHA256 and modulo operations for enabling quick handover operations. The keys assigned to each device and base station joining the network are hashed, and their sizes are reduced using modulo operations. Furthermore, the compressed key size forms a certificate, which is used by the machines and the base stations to authenticate mutually. In comparison with existing studies, the performance analysis of the proposed scheme is based on the transmission of three messages required for completing the authentication process. Evaluation based on the Communication Overhead demonstrates a minimum improvement of 99.30% fewer bytes exchanged during the handover process and 89.58% reduced Storage Overhead compared with existing studies.

Opinion mining and sentiment analysis help in extracting valuable information from the huge user data generated in the form of opinions and reviews from the customers and comments. Such a huge increase in data available on the electronic or social media has also increased interest in this field. Sentiment analysis helps in extraction of opinions of others (writer or speaker) from a given source (text) using different methods and techniques like NLP, text mining, and linguistic computation and classifying them into positive, negative, and neutral opinions. Decision making for both consumers as well as the seller becomes much easier with such type of classification. This chapter consists of survey report on different elements of sentiment analysis, its applications, and challenges involved. The chapter studies and compares some of the techniques used to evaluate the item's reputation using sentiment analysis. A number of tools and features for sentiment analysis are also included in this chapter that can later help to perform better sentiment analysis of data.

In this chapter, the authors explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Angolan market. A qualitative using case study (multi-case type) using interviews in data collection is used. It had 12 participants. The results reveal a significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Angolan economy. The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact for some companies, but essentially negative for others. The companies that sold the most during the pandemic are in the food, beverage, and health sectors. The ones that suffered the most losses were companies in the tourism and education sectors. The main difficulties have to do with the rapid changes in the market. The authors recommend focusing on diversifying the economy and reducing its dependence on oil, creating programs for financial education for consumers, and betting on digital communication.

COVID-19, which emerged in March 2020, caused a rapid change in the ongoing order all over the world within the framework of the rules set by the governments. For this reason, managers should be visionary people who give importance to research and development. The restrictions experienced during the pandemic period had a negative impact on activities of the companies all over. Since the beginning of the pandemic, all businesses have introduced different applications from working hours to the products and services they produce. Due to restrictions experienced, many companies had to close the year with a loss. In fact, this pandemic has revealed whether companies are strategically and technologically prepared. For this reason, while companies that follow technological developments have succeeded, on the contrary, companies that are unaware or do not care about these developments are left behind.
