Application of the special tax regime “professional income tax” to employees of the penal system: problems and prospects
Authors: Борзенко Юлия Александровна
Published: April 2022

С 1 января 2019 г. в Российской Федерации начал внедряться эксперимент по введению специального налогового режима, который получил распространение в большинстве субъектов РФ и нашел применение в деятельности налогоплательщиков, находившихся до этого в теневой сфере экономики. Несовершенство и несоответствие норм Федерального закона от 27.11.2018 № 422-ФЗ «О проведении эксперимента по установлению специального налогового режима “Налог на профессиональный доход”» (далее - Закон № 422-ФЗ) действующему законодательству породило доктринальные дискуссии о появившейся категории «самозанятые», нуждающиеся в осмыслении. Цель настоящей статьи - комплексный анализ возможности применения специального налогового режима «Налог на профессиональный доход» к сотрудникам уголовно-исполнительной системы посредством рассмотрения современных тенденций правового регулирования статуса самозанятого и его соотношения с ограничениями и запретами, связанными со службой в уголовно-исполнительной системе. В результате исследования сделан вывод о том, что существующие положения, регламентирующие специальный налоговый режим «налог на профессиональный доход», не оптимизированы применительно к действующим нормам, регламентирующим статус сотрудника уголовно-исполнительной системы, а уплата сотрудниками налога на профессиональный доход может быть расценено как повод для привлечения к ответственности. При этом отмечается, что рассматриваемый специальный налоговый режим обладает определенным потенциалом при условии совершенствования действующих норм.

From 01.01.2019, the Russian Federation began to implement an experiment to introduce a special tax regime, which became widespread in most constituent entities of the Russian Federation and found application in the activities of taxpayers who were previously in the shadow economy. The imperfection and inconsistency of the norms of the Federal Law dated November 27, 2018 No. 422-FZ “On conducting an experiment to establish a special tax regime “Tax on professional income”(hereinafter - Law No. 422-FZ) with the current legislation, gave rise to doctrinal discussions about the emerging category of “self-employed” requiring comprehension. The purpose of this article is a comprehensive analysis of the special tax regime “Tax on professional income” in relation to employees of the penal system by considering modern trends in the legal regulation of the status of the self-employed and its relationship with the restrictions and prohibitions associated with service in the penal system. As a result of the study, it was concluded that the existing provisions regulating the special tax regime “tax on professional income” contradict the current legislation regulating the status of an employee of the penal system, and the payment of tax on professional income by employees may lead to their possible liability. At the same time, it is noted that the special tax regime under consideration has a certain potential, subject to the improvement of the existing norms.

Authors: Хильман Дмитрий Вадимович
Published: April 2022

В статье анализируется сущность принципа справедливости в гражданском праве, рассматриваются некоторые научные взгляды на этот счет, раскрывается авторский подход к его пониманию. Определяется соотношение принципа справедливости с другими правовыми принципами. Выявляется влияние принципа справедливости на защиту интересов юридических лиц ФСИН России при их участии в хозяйственных отношениях, а в первую очередь - в обязательствах из государственных контрактов. Анализируются «проявления» принципа справедливости в содержании российских гражданско-правовых норм и оценивается его влияние на действие других правовых принципов. Такие проявления находятся в увеличении или уменьшении субъективных прав одних участников оборота перед другими, в установлении законодателем обязывающих, а не диспозитивных, правил поведения, в действии суда по своему усмотрению, в определенных законом случаях, в законодательном установлении ограничений частной сферы в публичных интересах. Оценивается соразмерность преимуществ, устанавливаемых ст. 28 Федерального закона от 05.04.2013 № 44-ФЗ «О контрактной системе в сфере закупок товаров, работ, услуг для обеспечения государственных и муниципальных нужд» для учреждений и предприятий уголовно-исполнительной системы. Делаются выводы о проявлении действия принципа справедливости в правовом регулировании отдельных гражданских отношений и хозяйственных отношений в УИС.

The article analyzes the essence of the principle of justice in civil law, examines some scientific views on this subject, reveals the author's approach to its understanding. The correlation of the principle of justice with other legal principles is determined. The influence of the principle of justice on the protection of the interests of legal entities of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia when they participate in economic relations, and primarily in obligations from state contracts, is revealed. The article analyzes the “manifestations” of the principle of justice in the content of Russian civil law norms and assesses its impact on the operation of other legal principles. Such manifestations are in the increase or decrease of the subjective rights of some participants of the turnover over others, in the establishment by the legislator of binding, rather than dispositive rules of conduct, in the action of the court at its discretion, in cases defined by law, in the legislative establishment of restrictions of the private sphere in the public interest. The proportionality of the advantages established by art. 28 of the Federal Law No. 44-FZ of 05.04.2013 “On the contract system in the field of procurement of goods, works, services for state and municipal needs” for institutions and enterprises of the penal enforcement system. Conclusions are drawn about the manifestation of the principle of justice in the legal regulation of individual civil relations and economic relations in the criminal justice system.

From penitentiary mediation towards restorative justice (on the example of the Republic of Belarus)
Authors: Тит Александр Александрович
Published: April 2022

Обозначены основные аспекты, обуславливающие необходимость формирования концепции восстановительного (компенсационного) правосудия в Республике Беларусь. Одним из элементов восстановительного правосудия автором видится внедрение в правоприменительную практику института медиации и, как одного из его подвидов, - пенитенциарной медиации. По мнению автора, внедрение медиативных (примирительных) процедур в период исполнения наказания способно оказать существенное влияние на снижение уровня конфликтности в обществе и, соответственно, уровня рецидивной преступности.

The main aspects that determine the need for the formation of the concept of restorative (compensatory) justice in the Republic of Belarus are outlined. One of the elements of restorative justice, the author sees the introduction of the institute of mediation into law enforcement practice and, as one of its subspecies, penitentiary mediation. According to the author, the introduction of mediation (conciliation) procedures during the execution of a sentence can have a significant impact on reducing the level of conflict in society and, accordingly, the level of recidivism.

İntrakraniyal Basınç Artışının İnvaziv İzleminde Hemşirelik Yönetimi
Authors: ÖZKAN Sultan , ARSLAN Ezgi
Published: April 2022

İntraktaniyal basınç, kafatası içinde yer alan organların oluşturduğu dinamik basınç olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu basıncın normal değeri yetişkinlerde 0-10 mmHg arasındadır. Kafatası içinde yer alan organların herhangi birinde ortaya çıkabilecek bir artış kompansasyon mekanizmaları ile dengelenemezse intrakraniyal basınç normal değerinin üstüne çıkmaktadır. İntrakraniyal basıncın 20 mmHg ve üzerine çıktığı durumlarda serebral kan akımı ve perfüzyonu bozulmaktadır. Bunun sonucunda beyinde serebral dokuda hiperkapni, hipoksi, asidoz, solunum şeklinde değişiklik, bilinç bozukluğu, pupil reflekslerinde azalma belirtileri görülmektedir. İlerleyen ve uzun süren intrakraniyal basınç artışı durumlarında serebral kan akımı durma noktasına gelir. İntrakraniyal basınç artışı riski olan (komada, ameliyat öncesi ve sonrası anevrizma gelişen, tümör, özellikle de fossa tümörlü) hastalarda basıncın invaziv yollarla izlemi önerilmektedir. İnvaziv yolla yapılan basınç izleminde nörolojik durum değerlendirmesi, monitorizasyon çıktılarının yorumlanması, monitorizasyon sisteminin devamlılığının sağlanması ve ortaya çıkabilecek komplikasyonlar yönünden hastaların takibi önemli hemşirelik girişimlerini oluşturmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı intrakraniyal basınç izlemi yapılan hastalarda hemşirelik bakımı konusunda güncel literatür bilgisini gözden geçirmek ve bakım yönetimi hakkında önerilerde bulunmaktır.

Bhuj (2001) and Muzaffarabad (2005) earthquakes of same moment magnitude of Mw : 7.6 occured in different techtonic regions i.e., intraplate and interplate regions of Indo-Eurasian plates respectevely. Keeping this in view, their comparative study has been attempted in this paper. A detailed catalogue of earthquakes has been prepared to study seismicity of Kutchh region by including historical and paleoseismic data. Discussion on seismicity of Muzaffarabad (2005) earthquake is based on IMD catalogoue of earthquakes. Difference has been found between Bhuj (2001) and Muzaffarabad (2005) earthquakes based on their foreshocks, magnitudes of aftershocks and their decay, b-value and their spectra. Though no relation between magnitudes of aftershocks and stress drop could be found but mostly the corner frequency and magnitude are inversely related. Difference in both these large earthquakes (M>=7.6) occurring in different tectonic plate set up is clearly evident from their stress drop. Seismic gap is noticed prior to main event of Muzaffarabad earthquake; which is similar to other Himalayan earthquakes of that region like Uttarkashi (1991) and Chamoli (1999). From the point of view earthquake prediction, the results based on satellite thermal anamolies, ionosphere, electromagnetic and sodar observations reported for these earthquakes are considered to be of limited value due to the large influence of atmospheric parameters. Though approximate displacement measured through GPS is useful for calculating the plate motion but their results to derive large vertical displacement is questionable in any case of Bhuj earthquake due to use of standard radio atmosphere. The errors in such results can be reduced by adopting radio atmosphere for the Indian region. Through a review of methodologies to predict the strong ground motion in the near field, it is evident that further research is called for.

Published: April 2022

Terör saldırılarındaki temel ideoloji ülkenin yerel kaynaklarını yetersiz bırakarak kitlesel olay yaratmaktır. Teröristlerin, kitlesel olay oluşturan terör saldırılarında yöntem olarak en çok Kimyasal, Biyolojik, Radyolojik ve Nükleer (KBRN) ajanları veya konvansiyonel patlayıcıları kullanmaları beklenmektedir. Tüm kitlesel olaylarda olduğu gibi terör saldırılarında da olay yerine ilk ulaşan ve görev yapan ekiplerden birisi hastane öncesi acil sağlık hizmetleri ekipleridir. Terör saldırılarında bir diğer amaç ise ilk patlamadan sonra ikincil bir patlama yaparak olay yerine gelen acil yardım çalışanlarına zarar vermektir. Bu yüzden hastane öncesi acil sağlık hizmetleri ekipleri, terör saldırıları gibi kitlesel olaylarda kullanılabilecek KBRN ajanlarına ve konvansiyonel patlamalara hazır olmalı, kendilerini eğitim ve tatbikatlar ile geliştirmelidir. Aynı zamanda oluşan patolojileri rol ve sorumluluklarının bilincinde afet yönetimi, acil tıp, halk sağlığı gibi farklı disiplinler ile iş birliği halinde olan afet tıbbı bakış açışıyla yönetebilmelidir. Bu çalışmada, kitlesel olaylara afet yönetimi, acil tıp ve halk sağlığı gibi pek çok disiplinini kapsayan afet tıbbının bakış açısıyla, terör olaylarında hastane öncesi acil sağlık hizmetlerinin organizasyonu ve hastane öncesi acil sağlık çalışanlarının rol ve sorumluluklarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Bogor city is mostly occupied by public transport. Nowadays, the number of routes of public transport routes in Bogor city is 24 routes. However, in the implementation there are mostly routes of public transport that are overlapping. This study is doing because the overlapping of routes of public transport is beyond 50% and it made the load factor in each route become low. The method that I did was collecting data with dynamic survey and static survey for anlalyzing the real condition of public transport routes and other data like interviews, Home Interview, and Road Side Interview for predicting the demand of trips that are processed in VISUM app to get the demand of trips on each road as a basis to make new suggestion routes for public transport. The last step is to analyze and to compare the real routes and the suggestion routes. Both performance of routes and performance of operational. After all of those analyses we only need 14 routes of public transport, so it is expected to increase the load factor of public transport by 70%
Can Affirmative Action be Allowed in EU Procurement Law? – SMEs to be Positively Discriminated?
Authors: Balshøj Dorthe Kristensen
Published: April 2022

Affirmative action is a widely acknowledged phenomenon in the US, and in the context of small businesses (US counterpart to European SMEs) within public procurement it is manifested in a 23% set-aside.

The purpose of affirmative action in the US is equal treatment – as is the overall purpose of EU law. However, in EU law affirmative action and equal treatment are considered somewhat opposites, for which reason there is no set-asides as such. That said, Article 67(2) of Directive 2014/24/EU provides for including social aspects in the contract award criteria, and therefore the main question of this article is whether it would be against the principle of equal treatment to use Article 67 as a basis for introducing affirmative action to promote SMEs in European public procurement? In this author’s opinion, the answer is no.

Published: April 2022

Objectives: Total knee Arthroplasty (TKA) is considered the treatment of choice for knee osteoarthritis, and health educators can assist patients to choose the most appropriate treatment plan. This research aims to measure knowledge of and attitudevs towards TKA among health education students, as they are the health educators of the future. Methods: A cross sectional design was used to study 227 health education students from four Saudi universities that offered a health education program. A questionnaire was distributed to eligible participants during the 7-month study period (20 September 2017 until 17 April 2018). Data were analyzed using SPSS. A chi-square test to measure the association between the different groups in terms of categorical variables and a Spearman’s correlation test were conducted. Poor knowledge rated as 0-49%; fair knowledge 50-74%; and good knowledge 75-100%. A total score of more than 7.2 indicated positive attitude, more than 4.6-7.2 neutral attitude and less than 4.6 negative attitude. Results: Of all participants, 71.40% had poor knowledge of TKA, while 76.20% had a neutral attitude towards it. Participant’s level of knowledge was significantly associated with having previously heard about TKA and having a family member who had undergone surgery. Participants’ attitude was significantly associated with having previously heard about TKA. Conclusions: Overall, knowledge of TKA was poor, and attitude towards it was neutral. A correlation was found between participants’ level of knowledge and attitude. Further studies for exploration are needed among health-care professionals including orthopedic surgeons and health educators.

Published: April 2022

Background: Cross infection of blood-borne pathogens during dental practice is a major infection control problem among dental health care workers. Of these infections, Hepatitis B causes significant morbidity and mortality, and imposes a great burden on the Saudi Arabia healthcare system. Therefore, awareness of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, routes of transmission, preventive practices and vaccination are very important for the protection of dental students. Aim: Determination of the level of knowledge, attitude and practice of preventive measures regarding the HBV as well as vaccine status among Umm Al-Qura University (UQU) dental students and interns. Method: A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted on 182 undergraduate students in fourth, fifth and sixth grades as well as on interns at Umm Al-Qura College of Dentistry. A self-structured questionnaire of 31 questions was distributed among participants to determine knowledge, attitude, preventive measures about hepatitis B during dental practice as well as the vaccine status. Data were collected, tabulated and statistically analyzed by SPSS v.20. Results: 182 questionnaires were answered, total males were 88 (48.4%) and females were 94 (51.6%). Among all students in 4th, 5th, 6th grades and interns, the overall knowledge was high (>70%). Also the scores for total attitude and knowledge about HBV infection were significantly higher in females than males (p<0.001). All participants were vaccinated against HBV and received 1-3 doses. However, 10.9% of them did not complete their doses (they received only 2 doses). Conclusions: UQU dental students and interns showed high knowledge and attitude about many aspects of HBV infection, but also there are some aspects in which they showed poor knowledge. So, sustained training and awareness about HBV infection and its preventive measures are recommended.

Background: Assessment of knowledge, attitude and practice of oral hygiene in children is important for the health of the community. The lack of data in Makkah region initiated the idea of the study. Aims: To assesses the knowledge, attitude, and practice of oral hygiene among Makkah children aged 9-14years. Design: Cross sectional study was conducted to collect data from children in Makkah, using self-administered close-ended validated questionnaire. It contained demographic data about the child and his mother, and included ten items about oral health practice, oral health attitude, and oral health knowledge that were answered by the child and his guardian separately. SPSS version 20 was used for the analysis of the data and descriptive statistics and chi- square tests were applied. Results: 405 children, both males and females, and their mothers have participated, 79% of them were Saudi mothers and 57% have had higher education. A significant difference was found regarding the correct tooth brushing frequency among male and female children. 67% had more than two episodes of dental pain during last year. No significant difference was found regarding the knowledge except the effect of the fluoride on teeth. More than 45% of the children who got good score their mothers are University graduates. Conclusion: Most of the children and their mothers have adequate oral hygiene knowledge, practice, and attitude. Children of university graduate mothers are more knowledgeable compared to non-graduate mothers; this necessitates the importance of educating them.
Prevalence of Cytomegalovirus in First Trimesteric Spontaneous Abortion: A Prospective Serological and Molecular Case–control Study
Authors: Alsafi Radi , Alghamdi Saad
Published: April 2022

Aim: To measure the prevalence and assess the risk of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in women diagnosed with first-trimester spontaneous abortion. Comparison Methods: This was a prospective case-control study; a total of 551 women were recruited from two Maternity and Children Hospitals (Makkah and Jeddah cities) in the Western province of the kingdom between March 2013 and June 2016 Serum and products of conceptions were collected prospectively from 201 women diagnosed with first-trimester spontaneous abortion. Another set of serum samples and placental tissues were collected from 350 healthy pregnant women at the time of normal vaginal delivery. CMV IgM and IgG antibodies were measured serologically by ELISA while viral DNA was detected in tissue specimens by PCR. Socio-economic data were analysed to identify potential risk factors of abortion and/or CMV infection. Results: The overall prevalence was 88.4%, 13.6% and 10.1%, for IgG+, IgM+ and PCR+, respectively. IgG+ frequency was comparable between cases (89%) and controls (88%). Both exclusively IgM+ (7.9% vs. 0.6%) and dual IgM+/IgG+ (22.4% vs. 3.4%) antibodies were significantly more prevalent in abortion (P < 0.01). PCR+ was also significantly higher (P < 0.01) in abortion (25.4% vs. 1.4%). Women with exclusive IgM+ (OR 17.1; 95%CI [3.38 – 86.68]; P = 0.001) and those who were positive for all tests (OR 29.3; 95%CI [6.52–131.71]; P < 0.001) had a significantly increased risk for abortion. Conclusions: The majority of the study sample of pregnant women in Saudi Arabia were previously exposed to CMV. First trimester CMV infection appears to be an independent risk for spontaneous abortion and viral spread to the intrauterine cavity was associated with the highest risk for miscarriage. More studies are required to measure the precise prevalence of CMV and its associated sequelae during pregnancy in the kingdom.

improving product attractiveness and usability has become a new direction of product design. In the past, the functional aesthetics pursued in product design was gradually replaced by emotional experience. The new usability is transformed into positive emotional needs. As an emotion type with research value in positive emotion, pleasant emotion has gradually become a new usability issue in emotional design. Therefore, the construction of product form pleasant emotion evaluation system helps designers to develop products that meet market orientation according to the combination of aesthetic experience and pleasant design evaluation system. Under the guidance of emotional design theory, through the systematic research of pleasure design, combined with aesthetic pleasure criteria and aesthetic principles, this study constructs a product pleasure evaluation system. A new research method and systematic evaluation scheme are proposed for the future product design research in the context of pleasant emotion.
Data-based quality analysis in machining production: A case study on sequencing time series for classification
Authors: Ziegenbein Amina , Metternich Joachim
Published: April 2022

The introduction of AI applications is accelerated by an on-going development phase at present, creating a technology push. The application of machine learning methods not only in manufacturing research but also in manufacturing practice is still a growing field. Against a backdrop of increasingly volatile markets, highly customised products and increasingly complex production processes with consistently high-quality requirements, manufacturing is facing growing challenges. The rush of new providers of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions and machine learning applications to the market is opening up new possibilities for data collection and analysis that go beyond the classic approach of model- and empirical-based process analysis and challenge traditional approaches to production management, such as lean management.However, at the value stream level, certain problems in lean production resulting from a lack of data can be addressed precisely with IIoT applications. As an extension to the challenges described, classic production tasks should be critically reviewed for their relevance. Reducing waste is one of the key principles in lean manufacturing for which data analytics can be used to increase labour productivity by either supporting or eliminating existing processes.We present the underlying goal of replacing one step in the value chain, the measurement of product quality, with the prediction of product quality using machine tool signals from the machining process. This idea has the potential for great cost reduction in manufacturing, especially if the use of existing data sources such as machine tool signals is sufficient as a data source. Although more data is being generated in companies than ever before, its potential can only be utilised if it is selected and analysed. Collecting high-quality data in machining practice often requires installing sensors and performing time-consuming data preparation steps. Given the sparse availability of useful data and the additional cost of new data sources, we use machine tools as data providers for machining processes.The advanced analytics goal derived from this business objective is the classification of time series, in particular strong sequence classification. Although there are several approaches to this classification problem, we opted for a feature vector-based approach, which has shown both potential and limitations in previous studies.In this case study, we demonstrate the potential of time series sequencing of machine tool control data for quality prediction. A comparison of optimised feature vector-based random forest classification models trained on different sequences of a real drilling time series database is conducted. The results suggest that while sequence length has a subordinate effect, sequence overlap offers great potential for effective classification without exhaustive feature engineering, which in practice is limited by computational constraints.

Published: April 2022

The objective of the manuscript is to determine the impact of an application with augmented reality, through a quasi-experimental study to improve the robotics-oriented teaching-learning process in students of the Mechatronics technical area at the Dayuma Kento Educational Unit - Ecuador. This research has a quantitative and exploratory, descriptive and explanatory approach. The study population was made up of 30 students subdivided into two groups: experimental and control. A pre-test was applied to all study participants as a starting point, to later carry out the intervention with the application of augmented reality for the experimental group, and for the control group with pedagogical cards. A comparative analysis was carried out with the results of a knowledge post-test applied to both groups. The study topic covered in the five sessions was the same for both groups, and they were designed following the ERCA methodology, under a constructivist approach where students must build their own knowledge in a favorable learning environment. The results of the pretest and posttest were analyzed to verify the hypothesis, showing that there are positive and statistically significant results, which affirm that the use of a technological tool with augmented reality has a favorable impact on the teaching-learning process of Robotics. It was also observed that the group of students who used the app were motivated and developed their research skills, achieving significant learning.

Published: April 2022

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in Europe [1]. PD requires a high-frequency therapy offer for a sustainable improvement of the communicative abilities. To improve speech therapy care in PD, technology-based therapies can be useful, essential in these digital health applications is that objective feedback is available for correct exercise performance. The "Speech" application from the ISi-Speech research project [1] provides technology-based training for the therapy of dysarthria in PD. The overall goal of the application is to improve speech functions and thus promote participation and quality of life for those affected. Methodologically, a strictly user-centered implementation approach is planned. Therapists* implement ISi-Speech into an existing evidenced based therapy format. Assumptions about the development of digital maturity levels among therapists*, best practice models for inpatient and outpatient therapy settings and implementation strategies will be identified through the feasibility study. The intervention is part of a public project of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research in Germany. The project humAine - human centered AI network focuses on different areas of business and healthcare. This specific use case is about the implementation of AI in speech therapy with the aim to sustainably simplify the workflow, identify competency strategies and identify best-practice models.
Functional diversity: Needs for technological accessibility for learning
Authors: Delgado Karina , Jadan-Guerrero Janio
Published: April 2022

Since the pandemic beginning, the students’ problems became visible, particularly those who have a disability when changing their way of working; in the same way, teachers do not know about technological tools to work through the virtual modality. This lived reality has positive and negative results. Among the negatives are: the disengagement from the educational system, the withdrawal of new knowledge and the breakdown of their relationship with classmates and teachers. On the positive side, it can be mentioned that this pandemic has been an opportunity for both teachers and students, it has made it possible to search for learning and teaching strategies and methodologies based mainly on the virtual modality. This article describes an investigation carried out in Ecuador, in which the techno-logical accessibility conditions, the required competencies and the needs from the functional diversity of 212 children and adolescents with disabilities were identified. Subsequently, a Technological Accessibility Plan for Students with Disabilities (TAPSD) was developed, based on person-centered planning (PCP) and universal design for learning (UDL), in which the use of different technological applications is proposed depending on the students’ needs and skills).

In the field of design, both logo and icon are the most common visual symbols. Among them, the logo is more commercial, and its purpose is to spread the value connotation of the brand. At the same time, the icon has more substantial functionality, which makes it easier for users to identify and Understand the functions of related products. To explore whether there are some potential human factors or design guidelines when designers are designing an icon or logo, which may cause the difference in colour between the two, this article attempts to combine image processing technology to analyze the colour characteristics of the logo and icon image And research. We extracted features such as colour moment and brightness. We used a machine learning classifier to prove that the two colour features are quite different. This research can be used as the basis for quantitative research on the difference between logo and icon. At the end of the paper, we have a prospect for future research.
