The abacus is a traditional calculating tool from Southeast Asia such as China, Korea, Taiwan and Japan. According to Chen (2009), it is said that the abacus existed in Babylonia and China around 2400 BC and 300 BC. In education in Indonesia in the 1990s the abacus began to enter the form of arithmetic courses, after 700 years of disappearance. The impact of the abacus is amazing, a kindergarten child who masters mathematics can calculate faster than a calculator. The abacus succeeded in attracting the attention of mothers with small children, who then enrolled their children in abacus arithmetic courses. This program is very appropriate for children aged kindergarten to elementary school. The conditions that occurred in RW 01, Gedong Village, the proposing team found that there were still many children who had difficulty using addition, subtraction operations, or using the abacus. Parents don't even understand how to use the abacus in calculating. Maybe this is because there are no parents to teach their children, because the majority of children in RW 01 are from the lower middle class. To overcome the problems mentioned above, the solution offered in this community service is to provide socialization on abacus arithmetic media to parents of children in the RW 01 Gedong Village environment, in order to optimize children's potential, including: increasing the ability to calculate faster, balancing the use of left and right brain and optimizing it to achieve a level of analytical thinking and correct analytical thinking, training concentration thinking power, helping children to master other subjects, developing imagination so that children's creativity develops, and getting used to numbers makes children not I'm afraid of exact lessons

Authors: Gunturi Sravan Kumar , Sarkar Dipu , Akella Prasanna Lakshmi , Garladinne Ravikanth , Raghunath Indugu Veera Venkata
Published: September 2024

In modern power grids, ensuring operational stability necessitates real-time assessment of static voltage stability. This paper presents an advanced ensemble machine learning approach to estimate voltage stability in power distribution systems using data from phasor measurement units (PMUs). The methodology integrates multiple machine learning techniques into a unified predictive model to minimize bias and variance. A critical feature of this approach is the inclusion of a feature pre-processing step to eliminate redundant and irrelevant features, enhancing computational efficiency through dimensionality reduction. Additionally, a minority oversampling method for regression is utilized to address data disparity, ensuring robust model performance. Various ensemble models were evaluated using mean square error metrics, with the Bagging model ExtraTrees outperforming other algorithms. The proposed method's efficacy is validated on a 30-bus IEEE system, highlighting its potential for real-time applications. This research offers a robust solution for maintaining grid reliability and preventing power outages by providing accurate, real-time voltage stability assessments.

Authors:   Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research, Kulumsa Agricultural Research Center, Food Science and Nutrition Research Sector, P.O.Box 489, Asella, Ethiopia, Gebregewergis Abraha
Published: September 2024

Some physico-chemical compositions of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) were determined by using destructive and non-destructive methods. Standardized conventional method by Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) food analysis scheme was used for the destructive approach while near infrared spectrophotometer was used to measure some proximate compositions of wheat as a non-destructive method[1]. Near infrared techniques for obtaining the proximate compositions in the bread wheat was found to be more economical and faster without destroying the actual proximate compositions of the grains. The proximate compositions of bread wheat determined by using non-destructive measurement were moisture content 11.07 ± 0.03%, crude fiber 3.00 ± 0.00% and carbohydrate 71.80 ± 0.35% and the proximate compositions of bread wheat determined by using the destructive measurement were 9.50 ± 0.10%, 2.67 ± 0.07% and 67.28 ± 0.39%, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the values obtained by the destructive and non-destructive methods for the determination of the physico-chemical compositions of bread wheat samples. Therefore, non-destructive method is economical, fast and save time compared to the crushing of the sample and addition of chemical reagents in the samples.

A simple and efficient method was used to determine the levels of iron and zinc in the teff flour samples. The aim of this study was to determine the concentration levels of iron and zinc in teff samples across different locations and to compare with other reported values due to different agricultural applications. The levels of Fe and Zn in the three types of teff samples collected from the three sampling areas were determined by using Micro-plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. The iron mean concentration of white teff was highest in the Bure site followed by Bahir Dar and Debre Markos sampling sites. The level of iron in the red teff was highest in the Debre Markos site followed by Bure and Bahir Dar sampling sites respectively. Similarly, the iron content of the mixed teff was highest in Bahir Dar site followed by Debre Markos and Bure sampling sites. However, the amounts of Zn determined in the three types of teff samples collected from the three different locations were almost similar. The overall mean concentrations determined (mg/kg, air dry weight) for the teff samples collected from the Bure, Debre Markos and Bahir Dar sites were in the ranges of Fe (719) > Zn (86) >, Fe (728) > Zn (87) and Fe (668) > Zn (73), respectively. The one way ANOVA indicated the mean concentrations of the two studied metals found in the three types of teff samples within and between the sampling sites was not significant at 95% confidence level.
Conventional and Molecular Improvement of Maize for Drought Tolerance: Research Review
Authors:   Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research, Garoma Belay ,   Bako National maize research centre, Bako, Ethiopia
Published: September 2024

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important staple crop for food, feed, and industry globally. Despite the importance of maize as a principal food crop in developing countries, drought is a major constraint that affects maize production, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, where maize is grown under rainfed conditions. Plant breeders have been striving to improve and develop drought-tolerant crops. Nevertheless, these efforts still cannot meet the demand for food security due to fast population growth and climatic change. Conventional maize breeding for drought tolerance follows a diverse approach that includes recurrent selection, backcrossing, pedigree breeding, and subsequently evaluating inbred lines and hybrids at optimum conditions, a managed screening site, and random stress across multiple environments. Molecular markers were used to select donor parents with drought-adaptive alleles and then integrated into elite maize lines to create a new population of drought-tolerant inbred lines.

Habsburg-Lotaringiai Mária Leopoldina főhercegnő élete Brazília függetlenné válásának idején
Authors: Balogh Ádám Tibor
Published: September 2024

This study aims to provide a Hungarian-language overview of the life and role of the Austrian Archduchess Leopoldina, who became the first Empress of Brazil and rained at the time of Brazil’s independence. Leopoldina’s marriage to Crown Prince Peter connected the houses of Habsburg-Lorraine and Braganza after the Congress of Vienna. The union aimed to strengthen dynastic, political, and economic ties during the period of monarchical restoration and the Holy Alliance. Leopoldina left behind numerous letters, which have become important historical sources. Despite several books being written about her life, no complete biography has been published in Hungarian. The aim of this study is to fill that gap by presenting Leopoldina’s life in Brazil, exploring her role in the independence struggles, and examining her influence on Austro-Brazilian relations. The study seeks to provide an objective assessment of Leopoldina’s role, avoiding both exaggeration and romantic nostalgia. It relies on international litera ture, letters, diplomatic reports, and other contemporary documents. By investigating the circumstances and experiences of Leopoldina’s trip to Brazil, her contributions to Brazilian independence, and the involvement of Hungarian participants in the expedition, the study aims to determine her impact on shaping political events, and concludes that her cultural influence and popularity still persist in Brazil and Austria today.
A korai brazil-amerikai kapcsolatok
Authors: Kökény Andrea
Published: September 2024

The United States of America was the first country to recognize the independence of Brazil, when, on May 26, 1824, James Monroe, the President of the US, received José Silvestre Rebello as a chargé d’affaires sent by the Emperor of Brazil to the United States. In reciprocity, on March 9, 1825, President Monroe appointed Condy Raguet to a similar position in Brazil, who presented his credentials to Emperor Pedro I on October 29, 1825. American traders developed business relations with the Portuguese colony already at the end of the eighteenth century, and the economic ties remained important through out the nineteenth century. However, the purpose of this article is to analyze the antecedents and circumstances of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The paper focuses mainly on the early period, the era of the Napoleonic Wars, the presidency of James Madison (1809–1817) and James Monroe (1817-1825), and the activity of John Quincy Adams, who was the secretary of state of the United States from 1817 to 1825 and its president from 1825 to 1829. The paper relies on official documents and the Memoirs of John Quincy Adams as its most important primary sources.

Published: September 2024

Perhaps a lesser-known aspect of Brazil’s history is the one-day official visit to Brazil by Cuban revolutionary Ernesto Che Guevara in 1961. Nevertheless, it is still significant due to the high cost of the diplomatic visit. After the meeting, President Janio Quadros lost his position, and Guevara’s visit had sparked protests in the country. This paper aims to explore the meeting and its background in more depth. In doing so, it will provide Hungarian historians an insight into an event that is a significant and sensational part of Brazilian history but has not yet received enough attention in Hungarian historiography.
José Rizal és a Fülöp-szigeteki függetlenség kérdése
Authors: Stempler Ádám
Published: September 2024

The Philippines’ primary national hero is undoubtedly José Rizal. His role in shaping Philippine identity and nationhood is unquestionable. It is also little disputed that, although Rizal enjoyed considerable fame and respect in his lifetime, the US colonial administration had significantly contributed to his reputation as a national hero. Following the Spanish-American War, the victorious new colonial authorities’ first impressions of Rizal, who had been executed a few years earlier in 1896, were that he was a moderate, anti-revolutionary reformer. As a result of American propaganda, it soon became the generally accepted view that Rizal not only opposed the revolution but also supported assimilation with Spain. However, from the 1960s onwards, more and more people began to question this assertion. The primary aim of the study is to examine Rizal’s views on independence and revolution in depth, based primarily on his published writings and surviving correspondence.

Cette étude s’intéresse au canal d’information et la satisfaction qui influence l’engagement à l’usage dans le chef de l’auditeur. Avec un focus fait sur le langage « Chabubo » en ville de Butembo, nous répondons à la question générale de savoir quelle influence les dimensions socio-affectives exercent sur l’usage d’un canal de communication pour le récepteur, avec une spécificité. La considération du « Chabubo » comme domaine d’étude est motivée par le fait que ce langage est passé progressivement de son rôle de canal de communication à celui d’information radiophonique avec une influence significative sur les pratiques de gestions des audiences par les radios en ville de Butembo. L’étude permet de relever un niveau d’engagement significatif des auditeurs du « Chabubo » comme canal d’information radiophonique à travers la Radio Upendo Kivu. Le niveau d’engagement est mesuré par la détermination de l’auditeur à suivre le journal sur son propre récepteur (79%), c’est-à-dire, de manière planifiée. Par rapport à la satisfaction de leurs besoins par le « Chabubo », nos enquêtés expriment e, moyenne un niveau de non sévérité justifié par le cumul (35%) des modalités du niveau élevé et très élevé, renforcé par 39% de niveau de satisfaction modérée. Par rapport à la perception du journal « Chabubo » l’étude dégage un niveau de jugement positif de 48% d’intention contre 23% d’intention négative, le reste ayant une intension modérée. Le sentiment le plus satisfait chez les auditeurs par rapport à l’usage du « Chabubo » comme canal d’information est le divertissement (33%) pendant que le besoin d’information est satisfait en second lieu à hauteur de 28%. Nous pourrions dire qu’ici le divertissement est utilisé comme une passerelle pour informer dans le cadre du « Chabubo ». Les données analysées d’un échantillon de 1608 individus abordés dans les 4 communes de la Ville de Butembo entre juin 2021 et octobre 2022, sur la base de la technique accidentelle, proposent des réponses à nos hypothèses de recherches. Les résultats ressortis nous permettent d’affirmer que l’usage du langage « Chabubo » comme canal d’information radiophonique repose sur la réponse apportée aux dimensions socio-affectives dont les plus dominants sont le divertissement et le sentiment d’avoir été mieux informé.Cette étude a analysé les facteurs déterminant le prix des produits vivriers sur les marchés ruraux.

L'analyse des performances académiques est basée sur un certain nombre de facteurs qui mesurent les capacités intellectuelles. Cette mesure de la performance est basée sur un certain nombre de variables qui peuvent être utilisées pour prédire la performance académique et les notes finales. Les outils statistiques permettent avant tout de mesurer l'impact des données les unes sur les autres. À cette fin, l'étude des corrélations est le meilleur compromis pour identifier les vrais et les faux prédicteurs entre les variables. Aussi, par le biais des statistiques descriptives, la distribution des données est d'ordre important pour mesurer les différentes dispersions des données dans leur exploration, ces analyses minutieuses amènent le chercheur à devoir cibler les éléments nécessaires à la prédiction des outputs. Pour prédire les performances académiques des étudiants, il est important d'avoir une idée de l'historique de leurs études, afin de pouvoir identifier les facteurs qui peuvent être déterminants pour prédire le résultat final à la fin du cycle. Les modèles d'apprentissage automatique ont joué un rôle clé dans la prédiction des performances. Après avoir exploré les données, nous avons pu comparer les performances des différents algorithmes. Nous avons comparé six algorithmes, dont deux ont atteint une performance acceptable de 80% pour le coefficient de détermination : la régression linéaire et le SVM. L'algorithme le plus performant est la régression linéaire, étant donné que le problème abordé est basé sur la régression. La régression est un type d'algorithme souvent adapté à l'analyse quantitative où la variable cible supporte des valeurs continues. Une fois les modèles entraînés, ils ont été déployés sur la plateforme web à l'aide du Framework Python Flask, en vue de mettre les résultats à la disposition du grand public. Pour illustrer notre modèle, nous avons utilisé 6 variables susceptibles de déterminer les meilleurs prédicteurs. Une fois le modèle entraîné, il peut être utilisé et sauvegardé pour un déploiement ultérieur.

Intelligent Evaluation of Power Tool Design Based on Deep Learning
Authors: Lu Jiamin
Published: September 2024

In order to address the issue of intelligent development in power tool design, this paper proposes an intelligent evaluation method for power tool design based on deep learning technology. The paper begins by summarizing the evaluation indicators for power tool design and constructing a hierarchical analysis model. It then utilizes FAHP to calculate the weight of each design indicator. Subsequently, pictures are collected and manually annotated to create a dataset for power tools. Finally, the dataset is refined and trained using the ResNet algorithm to develop an intelligent evaluation model for power tools, enabling the intelligent assessment of each evaluation indicator. By comparing the results of manual evaluation with those obtained through intelligent evaluation, it demonstrates the accuracy of the intelligent evaluation model based on ResNet algorithm and validates the effectiveness of this experimental approach.

Starting point: Pediatric individuals with acute lymphoblastic leukemia undergo extensive chemotherapy treatment and, as a result, suffer from fatigue and, therefore, a decrease in their daily physical activity level, even after the cessation of the treatment. The symptoms of post-treatment thus disable the participation of the children in sports and games, which play a major role in childhood and adolescence.
Group: Thirteen 5- to 15-year-old individuals surviving cancer with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (1 and 3 years after cancer treatment) were recruited to an 8-week home-based exercise program.
Methods: This study aims to present the design and possibilities of implementing a home-based online exercise program for children who have overcome cancer, taking into account their age and the logistical availability of such physical therapy.
Results: Thirteen individuals completed the home-based online exercise program, and the success rate of participation ranged from 79.2% to 95.8%. The overall success rate was 85.6%. The design and implementation of a home-based online exercise program in our conditions proved to be advantageous and often the only way to allow individuals surviving cancer to exercise in real-time, as the distance of many families from exercise centers proved to be a significant obstacle in creating habits of regular exercise in children.
Conclusions: We demonstrated that individuals surviving cancer and their parents are interested in physical activity interventions and a home-based online exercise program is available and convenient.

Starting point: Preventive programs for older adults should focus on promoting aging in their place of residence. A safe household without barriers is one condition for maintaining a high quality of life and supporting self-sufficiency. The occupational therapist plays a key role in evaluating the home environment and supervising follow-up interventions.
Aim: This review study aims to clarify the role of occupational therapist interventions in the home environment of older adults and describe the most common and significant risks and subsequent modifications to the environment to create a safe home and prevent falls based on best practices.
Methods: This is a review of published literature between 2013 and 2024 using the PRISMA methodology. The electronic databases Web of Science, Scopus, EBSCO, and PubMed were searched.
Results: Of the 198 sources, 10 studies met the analysis criteria. Risky areas in older adult homes and possible interventions to increase safety are clearly listed. The areas with the greatest security risk are the bedrooms, bathrooms with toilets, and stairs. Various obstacles, including carpets, objects placed at an inappropriate height, a low toilet, or insufficient lighting, were among the most common causes of falls.
Conclusions: Studies point to the importance of promoting self-sufficiency and raising awareness regarding aging modifications to the homes of older adults.

This study investigates the influence of power supply reliability on academic performance and project completion rates among architecture students at Caleb University. The research adopts a quantitative approach, using a structured questionnaire to gather data from a representative sample of students across BSc, MSc, and PhD programs. Of the almost 700 population, 255 were sampled and the findings reveal that power interruptions are a frequent and significant issue, with 85% of students experiencing outages at least once a week and 60% reporting outages lasting between 1 to 3 hours. These disruptions have a pronounced negative impact on academic performance, with 78% of respondents indicating that power outages have adversely affected their grades. Furthermore, 82% of students reported delays in project completion due to power interruptions, with a substantial number having to redo portions of their work due to unsaved progress. The study highlights a strong correlation between the frequency of power outages and the decline in academic performance, as well as the delays in project completion. Additionally, the psychological impact of these outages, manifested in increased levels of stress and anxiety among 70% of respondents, further exacerbates the challenges faced by students. The research concludes that reliable power infrastructure is crucial for academic success, particularly in technology-intensive disciplines like architecture. Recommendations include improving power infrastructure, implementing energy management strategies, developing contingency plans, enhancing student support services, and fostering collaboration with power utility providers. By addressing these issues, educational institutions can create a more stable and conducive learning environment, thereby enhancing students' academic outcomes and overall well-being.
Using an Exploratory Factor Approach to Determine Strategies for Effective Implementation of Teaching Practicum in Schools

Published: September 2024

Teaching practicum is a vital component of pre-service teaching courses. However, researchers have shown concern about the quality of implementation of these courses. Resultantly, students show low-profile abilities in teaching and learning when they join professional service as teachers. The primary purpose of this study was to develop a scale for exploring strategies for effective practicum implementation and, secondly, to ascertain teachers’ perceptions about the effect of these strategies on the effective implementation of teaching practicum in schools. A survey questionnaire was developed and used for data collection. The questionnaire was developed based on a review of the literature and expert judgment. A total of 77 students participated in the study from a private college of teacher education in Peshawar. The students were selected based on a convenient sampling technique. The dimensionality of the scale was checked through exploratory factor analysis. The principal component analysis revealed a 4-factor structure as an essential strategy for the effective implementation of teaching practicum for pre-service teachers. These strategies were clear communication, showing respect, professional behavior and motivation. It is concluded that the scale can be used for measuring the effectiveness of teaching practicum in other contexts. The results of this study may be used for improving the curriculum implementation of teaching practicum in teacher training institutes. This study is significant as it provides firsthand knowledge to the management and administration of teacher education institutions about the essential strategies that can be used to enrich further teaching practicum, a pivotal element of teacher education.

The papers aim to investigate how Basel III affected Pakistan's entire banking sector from 2013 to 2018. The requirements and obligations of Basel III are regarded as the most efficient tools for the banking sector. When analyzing the impact of Basel III on the banking industry, three primary considerations are made: financial size, spread, and provision for non-performing loans. Relapse investigations were utilized for checking speculation. We inferred that the general pummel of Basel III on banks is enormous, yet not all banks have totally taken on Basel III. The significance of this research lies in giving important experiences into the viability of global regulatory structures in rising economies' potential. By evaluating the Basel Accord's effect on Pakistan's banking sector, this study adds to a more extensive comprehension of how worldwide guidelines can be adjusted to neighborhood settings and how they can address explicit challenges faced by banks in emerging nations. This analysis not only reveals insight into the operational and vital changes made by Pakistani banks but also gives suggestions for policymakers to upgrade regulatory practices and monetary strength. Eventually, this research aims to illuminate future regulatory changes and work on the flexibility of Pakistan's banking sector in the face of worldwide monetary uncertainties. We propose highlighting semiannually the effects of Basel on the banking industry and conducting a comparison analysis of conventional and Islamic banks.
