Published: January 2022

Cloud computing is an internet provisioned method for sharing the resources on demand by network management, storage, services, applications and the serves that necessitate management optimal effort. VMM (virtual machine migration) plays a major role in enhancing the resource utilization, application isolation, processing nodes, fault tolerance in VMs for enhancing nodes portability and for maximizing the efficiency of physical server. For balancing the clouds with resources for the enhanced performance, varied users are served with application deployment in the cloud environment is considered as the major task. The user can rent or request the resources when it becomes significant. The emphasis of this paper is on different energy VM energy efficient module as per machine learning methods. While allocating the VMs to the host machines, MBFD (Modified Best Fit Decreasing) is considered and the classification of host machine capability such as overloaded, normal loaded and underloaded is executed according to SVM (Support vector machine). SVM is utilized as a classifier for analyzing the MBFD algorithm and for the classification of the host as per the job properties. In this procedure, the numbers of jobs that are not allocated are examined via simulation which is computed by means of time consumption, energy consumption and a total number of migrations.

Authors:   The Society For Chinese Humanities In Korea, . .
Published: January 2022

This study re-examines the characteristics and sentences of bamboo in the “he Bamboo Slips of Warring States Period in Tsinghua University” and “Zhao Jianzi”, that emerged from the traditional literature. It also aims to examine the characteristics of linguistic texts in excavated literature. Furthermore, a new basis can be found in the history and thought of the late Spring and Autumn period. The sentence consists of two main parts. The first part is the testimony of “Fanxianzi” to “Zhaojianzi”, and the latter part is connected by the questions and answers of “Zhaojianzi” and “Chengzhuan. Both the “Fanxianzi” and the “Zhaojianzi” were mentioned in the history of the royal family and were former lords. The temple is also a large area of the state of the Republic of Korea, and can be seen in “Zuozhuan” and “Shuoyuan.” The front part of the prequel shows a subtle political confrontation between the “Fanxianzi” and “Zhaojianzi”. Part of the later section described the dialectical relationship between integrity, luxury, example, and state theorem through the questions and answers of the morning man and the temple. Accordingly, this bamboo crossword is considered to be the basis for some reference in the history and thought of the late Spring and Autumn period by theoremers and scholars.

Published: January 2022

『Shuo Yuan(說苑)』, the collection of Chinese historical stories, which was compiled in Han dynasty period involves many fictional elements, so it is called the classics worthy of note in history of Chinese literature. Because it selected mythology·legends·allegoric tales and put on record, we feel mystique and literary fancy during our reading. In short we can say that『Shuo Yuan』has many fictional elements. Due to the book was in focus on didactic direction, for the most part of the stories were described via realistic manner. So the stories involve many reality. Nevertheless no little sentences let us feel romantic atmosphere because of involving mythology·legends·allegoric tales. In short thro mixing truthful and untruthful historical stories, Compiler of the book , Liu Xiang(劉向) not only used a flowery style on the base of fabrication, but also plaited sentence (or used words) on the base of an untruthful method. As a result We can regard 『Shuo Yuan』 as a field of fiction based on imagination. Especially several sentences were remaded on the base of careful plot, and made them draw to a field of fiction. So it may be said that we can regard some sentences of 『Shuo Yuan』 as a fiction(short story).

AVANT-GARDE DIALOGUES
Authors: Lavrentiev Alexander N.
Published: January 2022

The article is dedicated to comparative analysis of spatial constructions created by the Russian Avant-Garde Artist Alexander Rodchenko and the famous kinetic European and American artist Alexander Calder in the first half of the 20-th century. For both artists technology played the decisive role in constructing spatial objects, both of them used line as a basic expressive element. Still there is a certain difference stressed by the author: Rodchenko used linear elements to express structural and constructive qualities of spatial objects, while Calder was more intending to represent emotion and movement. Rodchenko and Calder belong to the common abstract artistic trend in 20th century sculpture. But their works served as the basis for the two different traditions: minimalist conceptual and geometric art of Donuld Judd on one side and spontaneous mechanisms of Jean Tinguely on the other.
ICON OF THE APOCALYPSE FROM THE DORMITION CATHEDRAL OF THE KREMLIN. DATE AND HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Authors: Samoilova Tatiana E.
Published: January 2022

The “Apocalypse” icon from the Domition Cathedral of the Moscow Kremlin has long been in the field of view of researchers, but still there is no common opinion about its dating, and therefore there is no context in which this monument would take its place. The icon has many inscriptions, all of which correspond to the text of the Revelation of John the Theologian. In the construction of the composition, the master of the “Apocalypse” could not rely on the Byzantine tradition of illustrating the Revelation, since it actually did not exist. So what could the author of the iconography of the Moscow Apocalypse have been inspired by? The process of penetration of Renaissance influences into Russian culture, which began in the reign of Ivan III, reached its highest point at the beginning of the XVI century. The coincidence of certain motives of the iconographic program of the «Apocalypse» with the motives of Botticelli’s illustrations for the Divine Comedy, as well as the role of the line in both works, indicate the penetration of Renaissance art influences into iconеpainting. The discovered parallels do not allow us to date the icon from the Domition Cathedral earlier than 1491-1500, the icon was most likely written after 1500, in the first decade of the XVI century. The icon became the “banner” of a new period of understanding of eschatological ideas.
THE ITALIAN BRANCH OF THE FOLLOWERS OF ANDREA PALLADIO. 17TH-18TH CENTURIES
Authors: Tsvetkova Polina O.
Published: January 2022

The article is devoted to the study of the specific features of the development of the Palladian architectural system in the architect’s homeland in Italy. On examples of specific monuments, drawings and projects created during two and a half centuries, the peculiarities of the author’s transformation of style in the work of Andrea Palladio’s followers, the continuity of tradition, deviations from canonical rules and the results of this process are consistently studied. The buildings of the Italian branch of the architectural movements, little-known in Russia, are highlighted. The topic of cultural continuity and, at the same time, the rivalry between the Palladian style and the Baroque is touched upon. Particular attention is paid to the Italian tradition of research, additions and commentaries to the works and buildings of Andrea Palladio. The tradition developed among the professional architectural community of the Veneto region in the 18th century, significantly enriching the modern understanding of the master’s heritage.
ARTISTIC FEATURES OF THE NORTHERN “WHITE NIGHT” MOTIF IN THE LANDSCAPES OF ALEXANDER BORISOV AND LOUIS APOL
Authors: Enina Ivetta A.
Published: January 2022

The article examines the peculiarities of the color and light atmosphere of the phenomenon of white night in the Far North in the seascapes of the Russian and Northern European art. Attention is drawn to the period from the second third of the 19th century to the first quarter of the 20th century, when scientific and artistic exploration of the Arctic begins to take place on a regular basis. The article shows that the motive of the luminous night at the turn of the century appeared in connection with the appeal of artists to the study of natural contrasts of the Far North. Owing to the comprehending of the monotonous northern landscape, the palette of paintings was enriched with cold light shades of a lightair environment, the artists caught its special glow in the reflections in the water, ice floes and on the snow cover. The article mentions works of art by K. A. Korovin, V. A. Serov, V. V. Perepletchikov, N. V. Pinegin, A. A. Rylov and A. N. Benois, created during their participation in polar expeditions in late XIX and early XX centuries. Attention is drawn to the fact that the painters are branching out from marine pictorial art towards the study of special natural phenomena, such as images of light and dark polar nights, the northern lights, floating ice, fogs and snowy shores. It is carried out an art analysis and comparison of the works of the Russian “artist of eternal ice” Alexander Borisov and the Dutch “winter artist” Louis Apol, who were the first to depict such a phenomenon as a white night in the Far North. But their artistic interpretation of this phenomenon differs. A. Borisov perceives the North as a kind of “living” space in his own experience of figurative-symbolic comprehension of the world order, but at the same time does not lose touch with his realistic painting manner. And L. Apol impartially captures the surrounding nature, remaining in the principles of the features of compositional construction, which are characteristic of late romanticism. The European painter prefers muffled coloring, while on the canvas of the Russian artist, the paints literally ring and glow.

Authors: Qasim Mahar Safdar Ali , Sarwar Muhammad Suhail , Qasim Maher Mustansar Ali
Published: January 2022

Purpose:  To compare the results of LASIK versus Trans Epithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy (T-PRK) in correcting astigmatic refractive error.
Study Design:  Quasi experimental study.
Place and Duration of Study:  Lahore Medicare Hospital from January to October 2018.
Methods:  One hundred and twenty six eyes of 63 patients, age 18 to 35 years, either gender, presenting with astigmatism were enrolled in this study. Myopes with spherical equivalent (SE) ? -13.0 diopter sphere (DS), hyperopes with SE ? +5.0 DS and astigmatism ? 1.5 D with visual acuity better or equal to 0.3 LogMAR were included. Astigmatic eyes with < 1.5D and with any other ocular pathology were excluded. Refractive status was assessed by Canon Autorefractor and Heine Retinoscope. Average reading of both methods was taken. Patients were divided into two groups (31: LASIK; 32: trans-PRK) by spin of a coin method. Refractive surgery was done in both groups. Data was analyzed by SPSS 20. Normality of quantitative data was checked by Shapiro Wilk test. Mann Whitney-U test was used for non-parametric data. P-value ? 0.05 was taken as significant.
Results:  Mean age of the patients was 25.83 ± 3.09 years. The difference in residual sphere, amount of cylinder, axis of cylinder and CCT (central corneal thickness) after surgery in two groups was insignificant. P values were as follows; for sphere p = 0.85, amount of cylinder p = 0.22, axis of cylinder P = 0.46 and CCT p = 0.07.
Conclusion:  Both techniques are equally good in correcting astigmatism (p = 0.22). LASIK or T?PRK can be done alternatively in patients with astigmatism.

Authors: Hussain Mahfooz , Khan Homaira Iqbal , Ali Tahir , Aftab Muhammad , Alam Adnan
Published: January 2022

Purpose:  To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cataract extraction through small pupil with the help of a specially designed instrument called club.
Study Design:  Interventional case series.
Place and Duration of Study:  Euro eye clinic from January 2019 to December 2019.
Methods:  Seventeen consecutive patients with pupil diameter of <4mm after maximal pharmacological dilatation were recruited for study. Inclusion criteria was patients with less than 4mm pupil size after maximum pharmacological dilation. Patient with previous anterior segment surgery and small pupil with posterior synechea were excluded. The instrument (club) was originally designed for breaking posterior synechae. Sutureless Manual Extracapsular Cataract Extraction (SMECE), more commonly known as MSICS, was performed in all cases. After tunnel formation and capsulotomy, club was used to bring lens edge out in pupillary margin. Lens was then maneuvered into anterior chamber and expressed out.
Results:  All 17 patients had successful SMECE. In one patient pupil was stretched before applying instrument. None of the patients had posterior capsular rupture or hyphaema.
Conclusion:  This instrument designed in Center of Ophthalmic Instrument and Equipment Designing (COIED) is very useful, safe and cost effective. In Extra Capsular Cataract Extraction (ECCE) or SMECE, surgeons usually do keyhole iridotomy, mechanical stretching or multiple sphincterotomies for managing small pupil. With this new instrument, cataract extraction can be done without surgical trauma to the pupil, thus preserving pupil shape.

Study Design:  Cross sectional survey.
Place and Duration of Study:  Eye units registered with the British Pakistani Ophthalmic Society (BPOS) between September and November 2020.
Methods:  A survey-based cross sectional study was conducted in Pakistan between September and November 2020. A proforma was designed using a survey client (Survey Monkey) and distributed to the eye units registered with the British Pakistani Ophthalmic Society (BPOS). The survey explored demographic factors, current antibiotic prophylaxis practice during cataract surgery and audit practice in Pakistan.
Results:  A total of 339 respondents completed the survey. The survey was representative of ophthalmic surgeons working in the major provinces of Pakistan. A small majority of ophthalmic surgeons provided some form of routine antibiotic prophylaxis (n = 140, 53.8%). Povidone iodine 5% (PVP-I) solution on skin and in the conjunctival sac proved the most popular protocol (n = 163, 66.3%). This was followed by immediate postoperative topical antibiotics (n = 101, 41.1%). Intracameral antibiotic prophylaxis accounted for less than half of current antibiotic practice during cataract surgery in Pakistan (n=99, 40.3%). Most of the respondents did not conduct any audit regarding endophthalmitis (n = 119, 55.6%).
Conclusion:  Our survey provides an up-to-date view on the state of antibiotic prophylaxis during cataract surgery in Pakistan and highlights several areas for improvement. This includes policy changes to increase adherence to gold standard antibiotic prophylaxis guidelines, improvement in transparency of surgical outcomes and to audit current postoperative outcomes.

Eye Camp Surgery
Authors: Jamil Ahmad Zeeshan , Bahoo Muhammad Luqman Ali
Published: January 2022

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed operative procedure in the human body.1 In Pakistan, we have very meagre trained Human Resources and equipment.2 At onetime, eye-camp surgery was promoted by the government to tackle the growing burden of cataract-related blindness. As time passed on, we developed public and private health care delivery services. Now we have ample resources to deal with an ever-growing number of cataracts. In the current scenario, eye camp surgery is not justified. But it seems as if government and regulatory bodies have no intentions to focus on this point.

INTRODUÇÃO: Este é um relato de experiência de um grupo de dança durante o isolamento social imposto pela pandemia de COVID-19. Com a interrupção do funcionamento das escolas de dança, o grupo precisou se reinventar.OBJETIVO: Relatar a experiência de um grupo de dança que existe há mais de 15 anos, composto por mulheres na meia idade, durante a pandemia em 2020, quando foram proporcionadas algumas atividades relacionadas à dança, de forma produtiva e as ações criativas para reforçar o relacionamento entre as participantes.MÉTODOS: Foram lançados vários desafios de atividades para acontecerem na quarentena, inicialmente de forma despretensiosa, mas que acabaram dando muito sentido a esse tempo de isolamento vivido no ano de 2020.RESULTADOS: Ao todo foram 12 diferentes atividades realizadas com muita criatividade, empolgação e engajamento, que contribuíram para manter as atividades de dança, a amizade, a descontração e a alegria desse grupo. Também foram produzidas duas coreografias no período de ocorrência das aulas no período presencial e online. CONCLUSÃO: Considerando todas as dificuldades enfrentadas, pode-se inferir que esse foi um ano muito produtivo e de muita proximidade entre as integrantes do grupo, apesar de distantes fisicamente. Ao final, percebeu-se que muito foi realizado. De certa forma, talvez até mais do que se estivéssemos vivendo num ano “normal”.
