The Peopled Scroll of the Great Palace Mosaic in Constantinople. New Perspectives
Authors: DERWAEL Stéphanie
Published: October 2021

Many studies have been devoted to the mosaic of the Great Palace peristyle in Constantinople / İstanbul. To its style, influences and models, as well as to its dating or to the function of the room it decorated. But there is one element that has so far not aroused much interest: the peopled scroll that circumscribes the central panel. The iconographic, chromatic, and technical richness of this border make it much more than a simple ornamental frame. It is even a key element of the pavement. This type of border developed towards the end of the 2nd century AD in workshops on the Levantine coast on the basis of a Hellenistic pattern. The presence of foliate heads at regular intervals in the border contributed to the revival of this pattern inherited from the Greek world. Four heads of this type are partially preserved in the Great Palace Mosaic. But what is it really about? The analysis of the corpus of the Roman foliate heads and the contextualising of this pavement allow to specify the origin and meaning of these heads, but also to confirm the dating of the 6th century AD, and to shed new light on the interpretation of the decorative program.
Competition in the Outsourced Chief Investment Officer Market: A Game Theory Approach
Authors: Park Daehyeon , Ryu Doojin
Published: October 2021

This study analyzes the competition in the outsourced chief investment officer (OCIO) market by utilizing a game-theory approach of multidimensional auctions, which is theoretically identical to the procurement auction system of OCIO selection. Depending on how the OCIO manages the fund, we analyze auctions using two distinct cases. In the first case, the OCIO operates a designated organization for each fund. This case leads to the conclusion that it is difficult for small funds to use OCIO services because of the high operational costs. In the second case, the OCIO manages multiple funds collectively, enabling even small funds to use OCIO services. Korea’s OCIO market currently operates according to the premise of the first case, meaning that small private funds are not likely to use the service even if a fund-type retirement pension is introduced. Thus, our conclusion implies that in the current OCIO structure, it is difficult for the Korean OCIO market to grow significantly. Policies and institutional supplementation are required.

The text is about social education of children and it presents an approach related to a new paradigm of a child and childhood as well as solutions drawing on constructivism. It highlights the sense of children’s exploration and their active participation in creating knowledge about themselves, others and their social background. The methods used comprise mosaic approach, tours, map-making, using cameras, child conferencing. These methods emphasize a child as an explorer and their active participation in learning new skills and gaining new knowledge. The main idea of the text is, therefore, to show the mosaic research strategy as a chance for professional implementation and achievement of research goals related to learning about the world of children, as well as creating opportunities for attractive and valuable learning about the world by children when they explore their surroundings. This kind of the meeting of two perspectives of a mosaic strategy: methodological as a research method and methodological as a learning method has its potential and interesting perspectives of multilateral application.
FTIR ATR spectral and theoretical based vibrational studies of uracil in dimethylsulfoxide or diethylsulfoxide solutions
Authors: Zatikyan A.L. , Markarian Sh.A.
Published: October 2021

In this work the solutions of uracil in pure dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and diethylsulfoxide (DESO) have been studied by both FTIR ATR spectroscopy and quantum-chemical calculations. The remarkable changes were observed in the C=O, N—H (1745—1630 cm–1) and in S=O stretching region (1100—970 cm–1). The changes of the aforementioned frequencies are explained by the destruction of self-associates of sulfoxides in the presence of uracil and formation of uracil/DMSO (DESO) complexes via hydrogen-bond of the uracil N—H group with the S=O group of sulfoxides. Structural, energetic and vibrational characteristics for the hydrogen-bonded molecular complex of uracil/DMSO (DESO) in the gas phase and in solution have been studied by DFT and ab initio MO theory. It revealed, that the uracil/DMSO complex is more compact compared with uracil/DESO complex due to additional hydrogen bonds via C=O group of uracil and —CH group of DMSO. The observed wavenumbers are in good agreement with calculated wavenumbers.

Published: October 2021

COVID-19 is a disease caused by coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This virus belongs to the group of viruses that infect the respiratory system. Furthermore, the rapid rate of spread has made several countries implement a policy of implementing a lockdown to prevent the spread of this virus. In Indonesia, the government implemented the policy of "Pemberlakuan Pembatasan Kegiatan Masyarakat (PPKM)" to suppress the spread of this virus. Based on data from the Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling COVID-19 of the Republic of Indonesia, the number of confirmed positive cases as of August 6, 2021 is 3,568,331 people with a death toll of 102,375. The existence of the COVID-19 vaccine is currently under threat, this is due to the emergence of new variants of the COVID-19 virus. The RT-PCR method as the main standard used throughout the world in detecting this virus has a fairly high specificity, which is around 95 percent, which is a manual process that can only be done by health workers. In addition, this test takes a long time and the number of testing facilities is limited. The presence of X-ray scanning machines in hospitals can be used to increase the availability of COVID-19 testing facilities. The thoracic x-ray image generated by the scanner can be used to detect the virus easily, quickly and precisely. In this study, a website-based system was designed to detect the COVID-19 virus in thoracic x-ray images using a convolutional neural network algorithm. The results obtained show that this system is able to classify chest x-ray images into three classes, namely COVID-19, Viral Pneumonia, and normal. The accuracy value obtained is 89.6% and the F1 value is 87.9%.

Authors: Entio Lisandro J. , Mujica Maria de la Merced , Busso Carlos Alberto
Published: October 2021

En Argentina, más específicamente en los pastizales del sur de la provincia fitogeográfica del Monte, Pappophorum vaginatum Buckley es prácticamente la única especie que provee forraje para los animales durante el verano. Debido a esto, se necesitan estudios orientados a lograr la mejora genética en esta especie que combine los efectos de la selección natural en el ambiente local y los de la selección artificial para caracteres de interés agronómico, especialmente los vinculados al control de la implantación y a la producción de forraje y semillas. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron determinar (a) los componentes de la varianza y coeficientes de variación (a nivel fenotípico, genotípico y ambiental), y (b) la heredabilidad en sentido amplio para varios caracteres de interés agronómico vinculados a la implantación, y la producción de forraje y semillas en cuatro poblaciones espontáneas de Pappophorum vaginatum recolectadas en la región semiárida de la provincia de Buenos Aires. También se observaron asociaciones entre dichos caracteres. Según la población, resultaron significativos (p?0,05) del análisis de varianza entre 6 y 12 de los 14 caracteres de interés agronómico estudiados para cada una de las poblaciones, con valores altos de heredabilidad y una relación superior a 1 entre el coeficiente de variación genético y el coeficiente de variación ambiental. Esto muestra que las expectativas de lograr algún avance genético en un programa de selección de Pappophorum vaginatum serían promisorias para varios caracteres de interés agronómico, inclusive en el corto plazo.
Canine parvovirus: A review
Authors: Rawaa Saladdin Jumaa  , Dhuha Ismael Abdulmjeed  , Sabrin Ibraheem Mohsin  , Osama F Atshan
Published: October 2021

Canine parvovirus (CPV) is a non-enveloped and single-stranded DNA virus. This virus is belonging to parvoviridae family that necessitates quickly dividing cells to replicate. On the other hand, it is extremely hardy, withstanding many common disinfectants and staying alive for months to years in ground surface or on fomites. This virion is an icosahedral symmetry. It has rough surface and form a triangular units. The parvoviruses have two sizes of viral proteins: small (VP2–5) and large (VP1). This virus is classified into three strains that widely recognized: CPV2a, CPV2b and CPV2c. It is extremely contagious and therefore is distributed from canine to canine via fecal oral contact. It has been reported worldwide. Sources of stress includes early weaning, overcrowding, and parasite load. On the other hand, lacking of the active or passive immunity, geographic area, and the incidence of other pathogens are all related to the development of clinical parvovirus disease. Puppies have been identified to have a more severe case of the disease than older dogs. There are two clinical forms: gastro-enteritis and myocarditis. The gastroenteritis form is general in dogs, while the myocarditis form is public in puppies. The symptoms of the disease include fever, leucopenia, anorexia, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration. This disease was primarily controlled through hygienic measures and vaccination. The interference of maternal antibodies is thought to be a main reason of CPV immunization failures in puppies. The viral diagnosis is confirmed using different laboratory methods such as direct and indirect examination. The direct methods include viral isolation, detection of viral morphology, detection of viral antigen and detection of viral genome. As well as the indirect methods include detection the specific antibodies against virus.

Flow-based information security risk-aware routing model using base score metrics of criticality vulnerabilities
Authors: Yevdokymenko Maryna , Shapovalova Anastasiia , Shapoval Maryna
Published: October 2021

The paper proposes an improved flow-based routing model taking into account information security risks using basic vulnerability criticality metrics. The model is based on the conditions for the implementation of single- and multipath routing, flow conservation, and prevention of overload of communication links of the telecommunications network (TCN). Within the proposed model, the problem of secure routing is formulated in an optimization form. The novelty of the developed model is that expressions are used to calculate routing metrics, which characterize the risk of information security in communication links of the TCN and in accordance with the NIST recommendations, take into account damages from the violation of confidentiality and integrity of information, availability of network resources in case of use of existing vulnerabilities; indicators of the complexity of exploiting vulnerabilities at network nodes and gaining access to network elements and the network as a whole due to the use of these vulnerabilities. As shown by the results of the study, the use of the proposed model of secure routing allows ensuring the calculation and use of routes with minimal risk of information security, thereby ensuring the maximum level of network security for packets transmitted in the TCN. The proposed approach to the formation of routing metrics can also be used to ensure comprehensive consideration in the process of solving routing problems of both network security indicators and quality of service indicators. The prospects for the development of the obtained solutions include the synthesis of models and methods of secure routing by which it would be possible to provide (guarantee) a given level of network security based on the calculation and use of appropriate routes in TCN.
Contribución metodológica de la narrativa del cuerpo vivido a los procesos deliberativos en bioética
Authors: Freydell-Montoya Guillermo-Alberto
Published: October 2021

Introducción: la bioética ha tomado relevancia a partir del enfoque principialista, el cual se fundamenta en decisiones orientadas por normas en el contexto médico-paciente. Sin embargo, podría pensarse la bioética desde enfoques metodológicos que reconozcan las características fenomenológicas/existenciales del ser humano. El objetivo es establecer una metodología que articule narrativa, cuerpo vivido y bioética, en la comprensión de experiencias vividas situadas en el médico espectador del acoso escolar. Metodología: se presentan dos diseños investigativos: la investigación documental y la investigación biográfico-narrativa. La investigación documental toma la narrativa y el cuerpo vivido desde la fenomenología como fuentes conceptuales que determinan los tres momentos que componen la propuesta metodológica, para estructurar los procesos deliberativos en bioética, como procesos de intervención y formación. La investigación biográfico-narrativa, a partir de la narrativa, brinda tanto un instrumento de toma de información, como esquematismo en el análisis narrativo. La muestra se organiza a conveniencia: cinco médicos graduados en ejercicio laboral y con experiencias vividas en el acoso escolar. Resultados: en la implementación de la metodología se obtuvieron cuatro narrativas por cada médico/narrador. El análisis narrativo evidencia comprensión de lo vivido, y a la vez, el proceso de formación del médico/narrador. Discusión: la narrativa del cuerpo vivido estructura los procesos deliberativos en bioética como procesos de comprensión y formación de médicos espectadores del acoso escolar. Conclusión: la narrativa del cuerpo vivido brinda a la bioética un modo de pensar la morada del hombre. Como forma de habitar el mundo de la vida en relación con el otro, surge la bioética como constitutiva del ser en el mundo.
От отставки до отставки: П. Г. Виноградов, московские историки и университетская корпорация (1901–1911)
Authors: Трибунский (Pavel Aleksandrovich Tr Павел Александрович
Published: October 2021

В статье исследуются две отставки медиевиста Павла Гавриловича Виноградова (1854–1925) из Московского университета в 1901 и 1911 гг. Общественная деятельность, высшей точкой которой стало председательствование в комиссии по руководству курсовыми совещаниями, сделала его лидером профессорского большинства (1901). Позиция властей привела не только к закрытию комиссии, но и к заявлению об отставке лично оскорбленного Виноградова. Его попытки изменить ситуацию в свою пользу ни к чему не привели, и ученый все-таки официально подал в отставку, исходя из вполне рациональных ожиданий на получение полной пенсии. Срок службы позволил Виноградову получить только половинную пенсию, несмотря на содействие и поддержку Министерства народного просвещения. Коллеги Виноградова по историко-филологическому факультету тщетно сохраняли для него кафедру в надежде на его возвращение. После избрания Виноградова профессором Оксфорда московские историки с целью обеспечения преподавания предложили выбрать Д. М. Петрушевского на вакантную кафедру. Совет университета, желая восстановить справедливость по отношению к Виноградову, предпринял попытку пригласить его, но столкнулся с резкой позицией ученого по политическим вопросам. Как результат, избран был Петрушевский. Вторая попытка приглашения Виноградова оказалась более удачной: в ходе выбора нового профессора А. Н. Савина началась кампания за возвращение маститого ученого. Виноградов был избран сверхштатным ординарным профессором (1908). Согласившись совмещать преподавание в Москве с лекциями в Оксфорде, Виноградов, помимо нравственных обязательств перед русскими студентами, имел в виду и выслугу срока на полную пенсию. События 1911 г. позволили Виноградову уйти из Московского университета вместе с протестовавшими профессорами и приват-доцентами. Хотя он не имел права на полную пенсию, позиция министерства, желавшего ослабить позиции фрондеров, позволила Виноградову таковую получить. Делается вывод о сочетании в отставках Виноградова оппозиционного настроя профессора и рациональных оснований, прежде всего финансового характера.
Константин Федорович Греков (1890–1947): первая биография революционера
Authors: Николаев (Andrei Borisovich Nikolae Андрей Борисович
Published: October 2021

В статье изучается биография Константина Федоровича Грекова (1890–1947), который прославился в первую очередь тем, что в дни Февральской революции, став революционным комендантом Николаевского вокзала в Петрограде, открыл «охоту» за императорским поездом, в результате которой Николай II и сопровождавшие его лица пришли к заключению о том, что в Петрограде начался не локальный бунт, а полномасштабная революция. В дальнейшем Греков занимал должности коменданта Таврического дворца и Смольного. Пребывая в Таврическом дворце, Греков совершил своего рода переворот, отстранив думскую комендатуру от дел и взяв все дело охраны дворца в свои руки в качестве коменданта ВЦИК. Действия Грекова поставили точку в думско-советском сотрудничестве в военном вопросе. Будучи комендантом Смольного, Греков имел шанс изменить ход истории, арестовав большевистских лидеров в Смольном и тем самым если и не сорвать Октябрьское вооруженное восстание, то, во всяком случае, способствовать передаче решения о его начале II Всероссийскому съезду Советов рабочих и солдатских депутатов. Но этим шансом Греков воспользоваться не смог. После Октябрьского переворота Греков сотрудничал с Союзом защиты Учредительного собрания, но вскоре разочаровался в его лидерах. В 1918 г. он вступил в ряды партии левых эсеров, был избран депутатом Петроградского Совета рабочих и красноармейских депутатов и делегатом V Всероссийского съезда Советов рабочих, солдатских, крестьянских и казачьих депутатов, занимался журналистикой, писал стихи, печатался в левоэсеровских изданиях, был знаком с А. А. Блоком. В 1918 г. Греков порвал с левыми эсерами после июльских событий и вступил в Петроградскую федерацию анархо-синдикалистов. В дальнейшем К. Ф. Греков неоднократно подвергался репрессиям, но умер на свободе.
Promoting Knowledge Accumulation About Intervention Effects: Exploring Strategies for Standardizing Statistical Approaches and Effect Size Reporting
Authors: Taylor Joseph A. , Pigott Terri , Williams Ryan
Published: October 2021

Toward the goal of more rapid knowledge accumulation via better meta-analyses, this article explores statistical approaches intended to increase the precision and comparability of effect sizes from education research. The featured estimate of the proposed approach is a standardized mean difference effect size whose numerator is a mean difference that has been adjusted for baseline differences in the outcome measure, at a minimum, and whose denominator is the total variance. The article describes the utility and efficiency of covariate adjustment through baseline measures and the need to standardize effects on a total variance that accounts for variation at multiple levels. As computation of the total variance can be complex in multilevel studies, a shiny application is provided to assist with computation of the total variance and subsequent effect size. Examples are provided for how to interpret and input the required calculator inputs.

The Decree of the President of Romania establishing or prolonging the state of siege or the state of emergency constitutes an administrative act, subordinated to the law. It is not a decree-law, so it does not represent an act of primary regulation, the President of Romania not being a legislator even in exceptional situations. The adoption of legislative measures through such decrees is unconstitutional.
Cine ești tu ca să-mi spui mie ce să fac? Despre politicieni și experți
Authors:   Facultatea de Drept a Universității din București, RIZOIU Radu
Published: October 2021

"Starting from a text by Sir Bertrand Russell, the paper looks into the division of roles between the politicians (i.e. the representative of popular wishes) and the experts (i.e. the holders of scientific knowledge). While neither could be able to set a workable framework for organizing the society by itself, a combination between the two could hold the key of a successful constitution. Based on this finding, the paper suggests that a good set of rules could be developed by politicians (who aggregate people’s desires) based on the scientific findings of the experts (who hold the tools to explain and implement new rules)."

Illusory or effective? The protection provided by the Romanian authorities to stray dogs
Authors:   Facultatea de Drept a Universității din București, ȘOLDĂNESCU Tatiana Lăcrămioara
Published: October 2021

The problem that Romania has with stray dogs’ management is well known at national level, but also intensely debated internationally. The main accusation brought against Romania is the authorities’ noncompliance with the principle of minimum suffering. With the sole purpose of eliminating dogs from the streets, these authorities ignore any principles and recommendations that focus on animal protection. The legislative framework adopted without prior documentation seeks to propose superficial “solutions” with short-term effect, which divert attention and prevent awareness of the serious problem Romania and Romanians face. Romania is already harshly condemned for its national legislation and its unfortunate consequences, so we intend to understand the justification for this conviction based on the analysis of animal protection and management of stray dogs concepts.

This article aims to analyse the relation between crimes of forgery and generating portraits of people who do not actually exist using neural networks with Artificial Intelligence, which opens new ways of committing crimes that are able to change the traditional paradigm of criminal law. Therefore, the first part submits a brief introduction to Artificial Intelligence and neural net Works, in which some terminological and functioning method clarifications are made, followed by a concise review of the crimes of forgery regulated by the criminal code in force. Subsequently, some particular divergencies existing in criminal doctrine regarding the creation of fake profiles, solved by a mandatory ruling of the supreme court. Finally, in respect to the aforementioned ruling, some examples in which the crime of forgery can be committed using fake profile photos are given.

Endogenous and social factors influencing infant vocalizations as fitness signals
Authors: Long Helen
Published: October 2021

This dissertation evaluated the role of social and endogenous prelinguistic vocalizations as vocal fitness signals in human development. It consists of three studies. The first investigated the saliency of infant vocal imitation using listener judgments regarding the degree of imitativeness in parent-infant vocal turn pairs. Participating listeners demonstrated moderate to high intra- and inter-rater agreement, suggesting vocal imitation has the potential to be used as a signal of fitness to caregivers in early development. The work also showed that vocal imitation in infancy is rare. The second study sought to quantify the extent to which infants produce vocalizations socially (directed to a caregiver) vs endogenously (not directed to a caregiver) in laboratory settings where parents either attempted to engage them or talked with another adult. The infants produced three times as many vocalizations endogenously as socially in both settings. High rates of endogenously produced sounds may result from evolutionary pressures to signal wellness to caregivers through vocalization. Extensive independent vocal play may offer infants the opportunity to explore sensorimotor characteristics of the vocal system and provide the raw material that parents can use in face-to-face interactions. The third study examined social and endogenous motivations in the emergence of advanced vocal forms. Specifically, it compared canonical babbling ratios of infants at low- and high-risk for autism across high and low levels of both vocal turn-taking and vocal play. Both groups showed a tendency to produce more canonical babbling during high turn-taking and high vocal play. The findings highlight a potentially robust internal social motivation for vocalization, even in the presence of likely social-cognitive differences such as risk for autism. High rates of endogenously produced canonical syllables in high-risk infants support the idea of robust evolutionary pressures for infants to signal fitness through vocalization. Furthermore, differences in vocal production across settings can inform our understanding of the importance of both vocal interaction and independent infant exploration of vocalization. This dissertation offers perspective on the ways in which social and endogenous factors reveal natural selection pressures on fitness signaling in the human infant.

Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non-invasive MRI technique, allowing quantitative measurement of cerebral perfusion. Incomplete or inaccurate reporting of acquisition parameters complicates quantification, analysis, and sharing of ASL data, particularly for studies across multiple sites, platforms, and ASL methods. Therefore, there is a strong need for standardization of ASL data storage, including acquisition metadata. Recently ASL-BIDS, the BIDS extension for ASL, was developed and released in BIDS 1.5.0. This manuscript provides an overview of the development and design choices of this first ASL-BIDS extension, which is mainly aimed at clinical ASL applications. The structure of the ASL data, focusing on storage order of the ASL time series and implementation of calibration approaches, unit scaling, ASL-related BIDS fields, and storage of the labeling plane information, are discussed. Additionally, an overview of ASL-BIDS compatible conversion and ASL analysis software and ASL example datasets in BIDS format is provided. It is anticipated that large-scale adoption of ASL-BIDS will improve the reproducibility of ASL research.
The Implication of REDD+ in Community Forestry (CF) Governance and Local Livelihood: A Case from Nepal
Authors: Gautam Deepak , Sharma Garima , Sigdel Rajesh , Basyal Chitra Rekha , Mainali Suruchi
Published: October 2021

Nepal's decentralized forest governance has now included a new actor, i.e. REDD+ which is a mechanism based on market for mitigation of climate change through conservation of forest. This paper aims to shed lights on the REDD+ effect on community forestry governance, and local livelihood. For this various published articles and reports were reviewed and analyzed. Organizations like ICIMOD, FECOFUN and ANSAB are leading a pilot project in community forestry on measurement of carbon and equalizing benefit. The major objective of the REDD+ program is to reduce forest carbon emissions by providing financial incentives for developing countries. The impacts of the implication of the REDD+ is more questionable preceding its 10th anniversary. Special income generating activities and awareness programs have been implemented by the REDD+ pilot project targeting the poor, women, disadvantaged groups and indigenous people. While some study findings show the REDD+ gave priority to the carbon outcome rather than community forestry's forest management objective which threatens the objective of meeting the local needs of people. Analysis also showed that REDD+ policies have been developed and interventions are made in a way local people’s participation and representation of their voices is limited which may weaken and reverse the trend of forest decentralization. The involvement of the new actors in forest politics can be seen as a proof of positive impact of implementation of REDD+.
