Environmental Reconstructions in the Upper Tana region, Kenya
Authors: Ngari Lazarus Kinyua
Published: August 2020

This article sets out to unravel aspects of environmental changes in the Upper Tana during the second millennium AD. This aspect has not been adequately addressed in the Upper Tana. This makes it clear that a lacuna exists in the study of communities of the Upper Tana and the way they interact with their environment in the past and present times. The objective of this article is to evaluate the relationship between human activities and environmental change in the Upper Tana from AD 1000 to 1950. It is hypothesized that the advent of iron technology and its attendant economic activities led to the depletion of indigenous forests and the general environmental degradation. The article has employed archaeological, ethnographic, oral and historical methodologies to gather data on vegetation change in the Upper Tana and other related regions. The article, argues that livestock grazing, iron smelting, slush and burn agriculture, and the clearing of forests for housing are key contributors to vegetation change in the Upper Tana. Results from oral reconstruction of the past vegetation of the area, and using the plant succession theory, shows that the lowland area of the Upper Tana is actually savanna with scattered trees probably inhabited by grazers. It is posited that the above factors, together with persistent droughts have altered the vegetation cover of the area. What we have today is colonization of less desirable stunted growth. The theory advanced here is that the vegetation change has been a result of human activities. Overwhelmingly, results the study that the researcher carried out, showed that the causes of these changes have been socio-economically associated with the expansion of agricultural communities into the area; rather than through climatic factors. Colonisation and other forces of modernistion have also contributed to the underlying problem. The article concludes that anthropogenetic factors have greatly contributed to environmental change in the upper Tana. Certainly, environmental change is a global phenomenon that has elicited research interests due to its negative impacts on human population. It is recommended that knowledge of environmental change in the past should be used to extrapolate modern environmental challenges affecting African ecosystems.

The most important reason for saving energy on wireless sensor networks is communication. Data transmission consumes about 70% of the energy of the sensor node. Effective use of energy on sensor nodes is a good way to increase the lifetime of WSN. In order to extend the life of the network, energy-saving routing protocols must be designed. In this article, I will discuss (LEACH), which is the first and most popular energy-saving hierarchical clustering algorithm for WSN and an improvement to Leach and VLeach that attempts to eliminate the shortcoming of V-LEACH and LEACH protocols, In this method, initially, the “sub-cluster head” and “cluster head” are selected according to the energy and distance parameters. The head of the cluster and the vice president of the cluster make decisions based on the distance and the remaining energy of the sensor nodes. Compared with standard leaching, this algorithm can provide better network life, efficiency and performance.

Picosecond Pulsed Laser System (PPLS) was used to simulate the single event effects (SEE) on satellite electronic components. Single event transients effect induced in an operational amplifier (LM324) to determine how transient amplitude and charge collection varied with pulsed laser energies. The wavelength and the focused spot size are the primary factors generating the resultant charge density profile. The degradation performance of LM324 induced by pulsed laser irradiation with two wavelength (1064nm, 532nm) is determined as a function of laser cross section. The transient voltage changed due to pulsed laser hitting specific transistors. This research shows the sensitivity mapping of LM324 under the effect of fundamental and second harmonic wavelengths. Determine the threshold energy of the SET in both wavelength, and compare the laser cross section of 1064 nm beam and 532 nm beam.

Vaikų žaizdos – viena dažniausių pacientų kreipi­mosi į skubiosios pagalbos skyrių priežasčių. Šio tyrimo tikslas – įvertinti pediatrinių pacientų ir jų tėvų emocinę būklę (baimę, nerimą), taikant skir­tingus žaizdos tvarkymo būdus bei vaikų patiriamą skausmą skirtingų procedūrų metu. Iš viso išanali­zuota 101 anketa. Vidutinis vaikų amžius 6,81 [3,67- 9,58] metai. Ištirta, jog vyresniems vaikams dažniau taikytas siuvimas, jaunesniems – klijavimas klijais ir Steri-strip procedūros. Vaikų baimė ir nerimas prieš siuvimo procedūrą buvo didesnis, lyginant su klija­vimo ir Steri-strip procedūromis. Po visų procedūrų emocinė būklė pagerėjo, tačiau po siuvimo ji išliko blogesnė, palyginus su klijavimu. Tėvų emocinė būklė pagerėjo tik po klijavimo klijais ir Steri-strip procedūrų. Mažiausias vaiko patiriamas skausmas Steri-strip procedūros metu. Gautos išvados, kad ne­invaziniai žaizdos tvarkymo metodai, t.y. klijavimas Steri-strip ir klijais, sukelia mažiau nerimo ir baimės vaikų tėvams bei patiems vaikams. Klijavimas Steri-strip pleistrais yra mažiausiai skausminga procedūra vaikams, todėl reikėtų apgalvoti šių metodų taikymą, kai žaizdos dydis, vieta ar kitos susijusios ypatybės leidžia tai atlikti.

Collective Memories, Institutions and Law
Authors: Czarnota Adam , Jezierska Justyna , Stambulski Michał
Published: August 2020

This paper aims at explaining the concepts of collective memory, institutions, politics, law, as well as relations between them. By means of a short explanation of a network of mutual relations between these notions, we want to show how law and collective memories interact and how the relation between them is formed. At the same time, we see three modes of relations between collective memories and law: 1) past before the law, 2) memory laws and 3) law as collective memory. The first view consists in evaluating the past under a court trial. The second one in creating legal rules which promote or demand commemoration of a specific vision of the past. The third approach perceives law itself as institutionalized collective memory.
Uniformed Services Pension Amendment Acts in Poland as Part of State Politics of Memory
Authors: Grabarczyk Mateusz
Published: August 2020

The article is an analysis of the regulations regarding the reduction of pensions of former officers of the People's Republic of Poland’s security services as an element of state politics of memory, presenting the Uniformed Services Pension Amendment Acts of 2009 and 2016 from the perspective of transitional justice. Whilst investigating the admissibility of using such a retribution mechanism, the author draws attention to the purpose of this type of regulation. Reducing pensions has, in fact, two goals – a retrospective one and a prospective one. The retrospective goal is about administering historical justice by penalizing a specific group of people using various mechanisms (in this case administrative sanctions). In the prospective aspect, it is an element of institutionalizing memory and building a specific political narrative. As a consequence, apart from commemorative practices, it aims to produce and disseminate knowledge in public space, while clearly rejecting the past regime. In relation to the Uniformed Services Pension Amendment Acts, while the Act of 2009 was to some extent aimed at the retrospective goal, the 2016 Act is primarily an element of politics of memory used by authorities to control the recollection of past events by explicitly condemning the previous system and all persons in any way related to it. For this reason, the author focuses on the mechanism of reducing pensions as one of the elements of politics of memory in Poland.
Articles 55a and 55b of the IPN Act and the Dialogue about the Holocaust in Poland
Authors: Liszka Katarzyna
Published: August 2020

Relations between the Holocaust, memory, and law are constantly reconceptualized. In the second decade of the 21st century there is no clear consensus on the way the Holocaust, memory, and law are or should be interconnected, especially in Central and Eastern Europe. A striking example of the new dynamics of those tensions is an amendment to the Act on the Institute of National Remembrance, which in January 2018 inserted Articles 55a and 55b. The paper states that these controversial provisions (later withdrawn) should be understood as specific memory laws in response to the transnational memory of the Holocaust and the non-consensual dialogue on the Jedwabne pogrom in Polish society. The paper shows the law as a result of a certain dialogue, a voice in the dialogue, and an attempt to limit this dialogue – as well as the effects of such limitation. The paper adopts Leszek Koczanowicz’s conception of dialogue, Natan Sznaider’s description of the transnational Holocaust memory, as well as the idea of the future-oriented ethics of never again, and Eviatar Zerubavel’s concept of a conspiracy of silence in order to frame the context and meaning of the emergence, short life, disappearance, and traces of the law. Although these articles “refract” criminalization of the Holocaust and genocide negationism, understood in the context of Polish historical politics, they are themselves close to a specific form of denial, i.e. denial of the Jedwabne massacre. A recollection of the Polish memory law casts a shadow on the future, as a threat exists that the law might appear again.
Nostalgic Constitutional Identity
Authors: Stambulski Michał
Published: August 2020

The paper deals with the link between the notions of constitutional identity and nostalgic collective memory. Starting from the notion of nostalgia of postmodern society as used in social theory, it shows that this cultural condition is reflected in in constitutions. The point of reference for contemporary political projects is no longer the future but the past. Longing for a lost homeland becomes a dominant social emotion. The author shows that this vision of the past is present in constitutions, especially in post-communist countries. It influences constitutional identity and, due to different temporal structures, is in conflict with the constitutional identity of the EU. The article ends with an analysis of the consequences of such a politics of nostalgia and the possible defence mechanisms against it.

Published: August 2020

Fungal infection poses a severe threat to human health worldwide resulting in a serious problem in clinic. Due to the limited arsenal of existing antifungal drugs, the nanomaterials were thus regarded as the candidate for developing new antifungal drugs. On the one hand, the antifungal nanomaterials are divided into inorganic nanomaterials, organic nanomaterials, and hybrid nanomaterials, among which inorganic nanoparticles include metal and semiconducting categories. On the other hand, they can also be divided into inorganic particles, organic structures, and mixed nanostructures. Currently various directions for the research and development of antifungal nanomaterials are undergoing. To improve the antifungal effect, the chemical modification of nanomaterials and combination with the available drugs are two strategies widely used. In addition, optimizing the synthetic process of nanomaterials is also a major method to broaden their antifungal application. This review focuses on the current research progress and cutting-edge technologies of antifungal nanomaterials in the field of pharmacodynamics, synthesis and combination of drugs. The nanomaterial will provide a promising and broadly effective antifungal strategy and represent a potentially repositionable candidate for the treatment of fungal infections.
Swarm modelling framework to improve design support systems capabilities
Authors: Novembri Gabriele , Rossini Francesco Livio
Published: August 2020

The disruptive development of ICT technologies can be a decisive element in bringing the productivity of the construction sector closer to the highest performing ones, such as automotive. We base the proposed research on the improvement of existing tools with artificial intelligence techniques, with the goal of having a self-adaptive model regarding the objectives to achieve. So, we present a general framework based on the Swarm Simulation Modelling approach. Building objects, goals, constraints and design solutions will be represented as a Multi-Agents System able to communicate, interact and integrate over the existing BIM systems, ensuring a reactive and proactive behaviour. Finally, the model presents many interconnected intelligent agents, linked to building object. They can sense external ‘perturbations’ and react by re-organising their structure to satisfy imposed constraints. We can find the near optimal solution via the DCOP approach, autonomously.

Untuk menciptakan sekolah  bermutu  maka  perlu  dikelola  dan  dimanage  dengan  baik  sesuai  dengan fungsi dan tujuan pendidikan itu sendiri. Sehingga ouput yang menjadi titik fokus dalam pendidikan dapat berperan sesuai dengan tugas dan fungsunya sesuai dengan instansi yang digelutinya. Pengelolaan sumber daya manusia juga tidak kalah penting dalam proses meningkatkan mutu pendidikan secara umum. Oleh sebab itu pengelolaan fungsi manajemen sumber daya manusa juga perlu dilaksanakan secara optimal sehingga yang menjadi kebutiuhan baik secara individu, organisasi ataupun lembaga dapat tercapai. Selain itu juga pengelolaan sumber daya manusia yang baik dalam sebuah pendidikan juga akan menjawab tantangan terkait daya saing yang menjadi problematika di negara kita saat ini.

Published: August 2020

The 2013 curriculum that has been re-enacted by the government, must be accompanied by an increase educators quality. Actually there are several problems faced in the implementation of this curriculum, including teachers do not yet know the form of RPP specifically in the thematic, scientific approach to the 2013 curriculum. This study uses a school action research design (PTS). In each cycle includes planning, implementing actions, observing, and reflecting. In the first cycle, it was known that the teacher's ability to make high-class thematic RPPs was only 3 teachers out of 7 or 42.86%. Furthermore, the implementation of the second cycle shows an increase in the ability to make thematic lesson plans for teachers. This is evidenced that there are 6 out of 7 teachers based on the results of the assignment obtained the ability to make high thematic thematic RPPs. The percentage of high category teachers is 85.71%. This shows that workshops on variations in jigsaw models can improve the ability of teachers to make thematic lesson plans for learning. Teachers and teachers should continue to improve their competence in making lesson plans, while principals try to continue to facilitate their supporting facilities.

Published: August 2020

Artykuł przeglądowy ma na celu przybliżenie początkującemu użytkownikowi tematyki konstrukcji i pracy biosensorów. Funkcją wspomnianych układów jest detekcja z zastosowaniem materiału biologicznego tworzącego warstwę receptorową. Pozostałe elementy konstrukcji biosensorów, takie jak przetworniki, przewodniki i matryce do immobilizacji najczęściej wykonywane są z krzemu, kwarcu, złota czy substancji opartych na węglu. Dobór odpowiednich materiałów oraz procesów (immobilizacja, znakowanie) w konstrukcji biosensorów podyktowany jest zawsze pożądaną funkcją urządzenia. Biosensory mogą służyć do oznaczeń ilościowych i jakościowych substancji w mieszaninach oraz badań wpływu związków chemicznych na organizmy. Dzięki temu wykorzystywane są w badaniach biotechnologicznych z zakresu medycyny, farmacji, ochrony środowiska czy bezpieczeństwa żywności.
Prostaglandyna E2 jako cząsteczka komunikacji pomiędzy układem nerwowym i odpornościowym

Wymiana informacji pomiędzy wzbudzonym układem odpornościowym a ośrodkowym układem nerwowym (OUN) zapewnia utrzymanie stanu homeostazy organizmu. Jedną z głównych dróg odpowiedzialnych za wspomnianą komunikację jest droga humoralna. Reprezentują ją związki uwalniane przez komórki odpornościowe oraz uszkodzone tkanki. Cząsteczkami istotnie zaangażowanymi we wspomniany proces komunikacji są prostaglandyny, szczególnie prostaglandyna E2 (PGE2), powstająca w wyniku aktywności cyklooksygenaz. Posiada szereg właściwości umożliwiających penetrację barier organizmu, w tym bariery krew-mózg, co więcej w OUN potwierdzono obecność specyficznych dla niej receptorów. Za ich pośrednictwem, PGE2 moduluje aktywność układów neurotransmisyjnych w OUN, co w konsekwencji indukuje złożone mechanizmy odpornościowe organizmu. Ostatecznie dochodzi do skutecznej neutralizacji infekcji przy jednoczesnym hamowaniu aktywności nadmiernie wzbudzonego układu odpornościowego. Efekty wywoływane przez PGE2 ulegają osłabieniu lub całkowitemu zniesieniu poprzez zastosowanie określonych inhibitorów cyklooksygenaz. Niniejsza praca stanowi podsumowanie obecnych wiadomości dotyczących procesów wymiany informacji pomiędzy wzbudzonym układem odpornościowym a OUN za pośrednictwem PGE2.
Znaczenie substancji alarmowych w komunikacji chemicznej ryb
Authors: Kłosiński Piotr
Published: August 2020

Gatunki ryb stanowiące ofiary w łańcuchu pokarmowym są zdolne do oceny ryzyka spotkania drapieżnika, kierując się dostępnymi sygnałami (chemiczne, wzrokowe albo mechaniczne) w środowisku. Jednak woda nie jest dobrym nośnikiem dla większości sygnałów z powodu relatywnej ciemności i dużej gęstości ośrodka. Sygnalizacja chemiczna daje rybom możliwość przeciwstawienia się tym ograniczeniom i stąd ma pierwszorzędne znaczenie. Substancje alarmowe uwalniane z uszkodzonych komórek naskórka ryb-ofiar po ataku drapieżnika stanowią sygnał ostrzegawczy dla innych ofiar o ryzyku drapieżnictwa. Informacje te wywołują powszechną reakcję wśród potencjalnych ofiar, w tym u osobników obcego gatunku, które są w stanie wykryć żerującego drapieżnika i zminimalizować ryzyko związane z jego spotkaniem. Szansa na wykorzystanie substancji alarmowych od osobników obcego gatunku wzrasta, gdy gatunki są blisko spokrewnione ze sobą i/lub współwystępują oraz dzielą tych samych drapieżników w ekosystemie.
Rzadkie choroby metaboliczne - charakterystyka i dietoterapia
Authors: Pieczyńska Joanna , Łagowska Karolina
Published: August 2020

Wrodzone zaburzenie metabolizmu to rozległa grupa chorób genetycznych, których podłożem jest upośledzenie określonego szlaku metabolicznego. Fenyloketonuria to enzymopatia polegająca na defekcie genu kodującego hydroksylazę fenyloalaninową, czego konsekwencją są przede wszystkim zaburzenia neurologiczne Dzięki wczesnemu wdrożeniu odpowiedniej dietoterapii można prawie całkowicie ograniczyć te dysfunkcje.

Klasyczna galaktozemia spowodowana jest deficytem aktywności enzymu urydylotransferazy galaktozo ? 1- fosforanowej GALT, w wyniku czego dochodzi do zaburzenia szlaku przemian galaktozy. Leczenie dietetyczne opiera się głównie na spożyciu produktów o niskiej zawartości galaktozy oraz eliminacji laktozy, bez konieczności wykluczania z diety owoców i warzyw.

Glikogenozy to grupa zaburzeń wynikająca z defektu danego enzymu niezbędnego do degradacji lub syntezy glikogenu. Istnieją strategie dietetyczne ułatwiające leczenie, jak OGF (nocne karmienie) lub UCS (suplementacja skrobią kukurydzianą).

Leczenie dietetyczne chorych z genetycznymi zaburzeniami metabolizmu jest wysoce zindywidualizowane. W większości przypadków przynosi spodziewane efekty i podnosi komfort życia chorych.

Forest tree species produce litter, which is the plant/soil interface that ensures the maintenance of soil fertility whose properties depend on the botanical species considered. The differences of properties are marked in the nature of the decomposition processes and the forms of humus which result from it. In this study, the physicochemical characteristics and biological activity of litter were compared in coniferous plots located in the semi-arid and the arid zones of western Algeria. The objective of this work was to characterize and compare the physical-chemical properties and microbiological characteristics of softwood forest litter in the semi-arid and arid areas of western Algeria. We analyzed the properties of 50 samples of Aleppo pine litter collected from five stations in each zone. Analysis results show a highly significant difference (p<0.05) in the physical-chemical properties between the semi-arid and arid zone: humidity (20.7% – 6.51%), pH (5.98 – 6.14), conductivity (0.42 mS/cm – 0.65 mS/cm), carbon (45.74% – 73.42%), nitrogen (1.17% - 0.86%) and C/N ratio (37.47 – 73.42). A comparison of the mean of microbial biomass and their efficacy reveals what is homogeneous in both zones, with a small difference in basal respiration. The heterogeneity of these results indicates that such observations still need to be made in other forests of the Algerian territory in order to better understand the functioning of forest ecosystems and the effect of climate on these compartments, especially soil.

Illusory size determines the perception of ambiguous apparent motion
Authors: Stepper Madeleine Y. , Moore Cathleen M. , Rolke Bettina , Hein Elisabeth

The visual system constructs perceptions based on ambiguous information. For motion perception, the correspondence problem arises, i.e., the question of which object went where. We asked at which level of processing correspondence is solved – lower levels based on information that is directly available in the retinal input or higher levels based on information that has been abstracted beyond the input directly available at the retina? We used a Ponzo-like illusion to manipulate the perceived size and separations of elements in an ambiguous apparent motion display. Specifically, we presented Ternus displays – for which the type of motion that is perceived depends on how correspondence is resolved – at apparently different distances from the viewer using pictorial depth cues. We found that the perception of motion depended on the apparent depth of the displays, indicating that correspondence processes utilize information that is produced at higher-level processes.
