اللغة العربية التّحليل التّوليديّ التّحويليّ عند الخليل "دراسةً تطبيقيةً لمسائلَ نحويّةٍ"
Authors: شياع د. علي رزاق شياع
Published: December 2024

سلكتِ الدّراسات اللّغويّة الحديثة اليوم أو ما تسمى بـ(اللّسانيّات) طريق البحث في معاني الجمل والنّصوص، وكيف تنشأ هذه المعاني، بدءًا من الفطرة اللّغويّة لدى الفرد وصولًا إلى النّطق، وما يتركه هذا النّطق من أثر، ولا يخفى على أحد أن رائد هذا المنطلق هو الفيلسوف (نعوم تشومسكي)، فأنتج لنا مصطلحين: (التّوليد، والتّحويل) معًا، إذ يرى أن كل منطوق في أيّ لغة كانت يمرّ بهاتين العملتين، وكأنّه وضع نظامًا عامًا لكل اللّغات، ولكل عملية من هاتين العملتين مفاهيم وقواعد، يمكن من خلالها تحليل التّراكيب النّحويّة لفهم المعاني النّاتجة منها.
     وهذا الفهم وإنْ كان حديث الطّرح بهذه الآليّة، وبمصطلحات جديدة، وتصنيف وتبويب جديد، إلا أنّه ليس غريبًا على أسس التّقعيد في النّحو العربيّ. فمن يمعن النّظر في طرق تحليل النّحوييّن للمسائل النّحويّة بدءًا من الأوائل، يجد أنّ مضامين هذه الطّرق لا تخلو من المفاهيم والقواعد الّتي وضعها أصحاب النّظريّة التّوليديّة التّحويليّة، ومثل هذا وجد بكثرة في الأثر النّحويّ الأوّل (كتاب سيبويه)، وما يحمل من علم للخليل، بل حسب الكثير هو علم الخليل أحياه سيبويه في مؤلفه؛ لذا جاءت هذه الدّراسة تحت عنوان: ((التّحليل التّوليديّ التّحويليّ عند الخليل "دراسةً تطبيقيةً لمسائلَ نحويّةٍ"))، لإيضاح عقلية الخليل الموسوعية في تحليله للمسائل النّحويّة على وفق رؤىً يراها علماء اليوم من ابتكاراتهم، ليس انكارًا لجهدهم الفكريّ، لكن لبيان ذهنية الخليل العميقة في التّفكير، وقدرته على استيعاب كلام العرب، وفهمه وإفهامه.
     لذا اقتضت منهجية البحث أنْ تأتي الدّراسة على قسمين: الأوّل، بحث في مفاهيم الدّراسة، بدءًا  من مفهوم مصطلح (التّحليل) من وجهة نظر نحويّة، ثم مصطلحي (التّوليد، والتّحويل)، والبحث في مفاهيم وقواعد كل منهما، وصولًا إلى نحو الخليل في كتاب سيبويه.
     أمّا القسم الثّاني فقد تناول مسائل نحوية حللّها الخليل على وفق المفاهيم والقواعد التي جاء بها الصّحاب النّظريّة التّوليديّة، لتُختم الدّراسة بمحصلة لأهم نتائج البحث، مع ثبت بالمصادر والمراجع.
Exploring Event Data Pre-processing Approaches for Business Process Mining
Authors: Lamghari Zineb
Published: December 2024

Process mining empowers companies to optimise operational processes by deriving insights from event logs. It involves assessing event logs or the resultant process models against existing models and identifying challenges within executed processes to enhance their efficiency. However, a critical prerequisite for effective process mining is data cleaning, which simplifies the complexities inherent in real-world event data, making it amenable to comprehension, processing, and leveraging with process mining techniques. Consequently, new methodologies and approaches for event data pre-processing have garnered significant attention within the business process scientific community. This paper presents a systematic literature review summarising relevant techniques for event data pre-processing in the context of business process mining. The objective of this study is to categorise approaches and methodologies related to event data pre-processing while shedding light on the crucial issues associated with these techniques.
Učinkovitost prostorne rotacije pomoću kvaterniona
Authors: Bratko Karlo , Hatzivelkos Aleksandar
Published: December 2024

Iako kvaternioni imaju široku upotrebu u jezgrama kompleksnih grafičkih sustava i alata, robotici, avijaciji i drugim znanostima u kojima su brzina i sigurnost rotacija od velike važnosti, njihova je pojava u nastavnim materijalima i matematičkim (pa i računarskim) predmetima rijetka, ne samo u srednjem već i u visokom školstvu. Cilj ovog rada je stoga predstaviti algebarsku strukturu kvaterniona, te opisati njihovu upotrebu u provođenju rotacija u trodimenzionalnom prostoru. Pored toga, u članku opisujemo i druge dvije standardne metode za 3D rotaciju, Eulerove rotacije i neposrednu rotaciju oko proizvoljne osi. Konačno, u zadnjem dijelu članka predstavljamo aplikaciju izrađenu kako bi se testirala učinkovitost navedene tri metode. Učinkovitost testiramo mjerenjem vremena potrebnog za provođenje rotacija, te analizom broja asemblerskih naredbi i zauzeća memorije.

SObjective: To make known the presence of parasite mermithids of the spittlebug nymph in different sugarcanelocalities of the state of Veracruz, Mexico.Design/methodology/approach: The nematodes were collected in sugarcane soils after observation of theemergence of the pest from the spittlebug nymphs (in situ), while some others were obtained after collectingspittlebug nymphs in the field and the pest’s emergence in the laboratory. The death of the nematodes wasprovoked with hot water (sterile distilled, 60 °C), and they were measured and stored in Eppendorf tubes of 1.5mL in formaldehyde 4% and kept in refrigeration at 4 °C.Results: This report is presented as evidence of pest mermithids that emerge from the spittlebug nymph hostin sugarcane crops in eight localities of the state of Veracruz. Although their identification at the species levelcould not be done, the length of each mermithid found was recorded, as well as its relationship with the host.Limitations on study/implications: When the presence of mermithids was verified and their location wasidentified in diverse localities, the opportunity of continuing with the collection of specimens was justified andtheir identification could be formally performed, as well as the implementation of biological control studieswith the use of these native nematodes; also, the exploration of their roles in the control of nymphs from thesugarcane crop.Findings/conclusions: The presence of mermithid parasites of spittlebug nymphs in the sugarcane crop ineight localities in the mountainous region of Veracruz was verified in situ. Their emergence was classifiedinitially on nymphs of the spittlebug (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) that belong to the genera Aeneolamia and Prosapia

Objective: To improve genetic attributes in Miahuateco chili (Capsicum annuum L.) through gamma irradiationwith 60Co.Design/Methodology/Approach: Seeds were irradiated at doses of 0, 100, 200, and 300 Gy at the NationalInstitute of Nuclear Research. The evaluated variables were LD50, agronomic yield, plant height, polar andequatorial diameters, percentage of aborted flowers, number of branches, and plant color, which were assessedunder a completely randomized design (4X4)=16 experimental units.Results: The results indicate that the application of 200 Gy induces higher agronomic yield. The LD50 isreached at 145 Gy. High doses of gamma irradiation caused a high percentage of aborted flowers, as well aschlorosis in the plant.Study Limitations/Implications: The seeds used in this project were landraces, which exhibited significantheterogeneity that could have affected flowering and fruiting. However, this was not a substantial factor forthis project.Findings/Conclusions: It is concluded that 200 Gy of gamma radiation from 60Co induces genetic variabilityin the species, improving certain agronomic attributes of interest.

Published: December 2024

This study investigated the impact of using treated wastewater on the accumulation of heavy metals in soils and sudan grass crops. The transfer rate of heavy metals from soil to Sudan grass was determined. The Sudan crop was established in two plots: one irrigated with fresh water from the Colorado River and the other with treated wastewater from the Las Arenitas treatment plant. Metals Pb, Cr, Cd, Ni, and Cu were evaluated at two soil depths. Results showed that the concentration of metals in the treated wastewater is higher than in freshwater but within permissible limits. At a depth of 0-30 cm, the concentrations (mg/kg) of Pb, Cr, Cd, Ni, and Cu in soils irrigated with fresh and treated wastewater were 24.59, 19.25, 0.61, 25.33, 26.70, and 31.78, 20.10, 28.31, 28.33, respectively. These values show significant differences in the concentration of Pb and Cd. Analysis of metals in the Sudan grass showed similar results for soils irrigated with both types of water, with Pb and Cd not detected. The transfer rate was less than one for all metals. These results indicate no contamination or toxicity risks when using treated wastewater in Sudan grass crops. However, continuous monitoring is necessary to prevent contamination risks. These findings provide a scientific basis for developing policies and strategies for sustainable water resource management in arid and semi-arid regions.

Published: December 2024

Behavioural flexibility, the ability to adjust behaviour adaptively in response to internal or external changes, is expected to be crucial for animals adapting to environmental fluctuations. However, the conditions experienced during early development can profoundly impact behavioural flexibility making it unclear how populations will respond to novel circumstances. Stressful situations faced by the parents can have a direct impact on offspring cognition through the transmission of glucocorticoids - stress-related hormones that affect offspring cognition. At the same time, stressful conditions can influence parental behaviour during nesting and consequently the thermal developmental conditions offspring experience. Here, we investigated the interactive effects of prenatal corticosterone (CORT) and temperature on behavioural flexibility in two lizard species, Lampropholis delicata and L. guichenoti. We manipulated prenatal CORT levels and incubation temperature in a 2x2 factorial design, and then assessed behavioural flexibility through a reversal learning task. We hypothesized prenatal CORT and cold temperatures would impair performance in the reversal task. Given L. delicata’s success as an invasive species, we expected this species to behave more flexibly and be less affected by early environmental conditions. Contrary to our expectations, behavioural flexibility appears to be robust to prenatal temperature and CORT in both species. The lack of difference in reversal learning between L. delicata and L. guichenoti suggests that novel environments are unlikely to influence flexible behavioural learning and that behavioural flexibility itself is unlikely to explain differences in invasion success between these species.

Published: December 2024

Se presentan opiniones de jóvenes universitarios sobre contenidos en redes sociales e Internet relacionados con el cambio climático, explorando cómo estas plataformas influyen en su aprendizaje y posible activismo. Se utilizó el muestreo bola de nieve para seleccionar 259 estudiantes de licenciatura de la Universidad Veracruzana, quienes participaron en una encuesta virtual con preguntas cerradas y abiertas. El análisis de los datos fue realizado con apoyo de herramientas como SPSS, Excel y técnicas de análisis de contenido. Además se realizaron entrevistas a administradores y usuarios activos de dos páginas de Facebook dirigidas a jóvenes y enfocadas en la problemática del cambio climático. Entre los principales resultados se encuentra que los jóvenes consideran a las redes sociales como su principal fuente de información, destacando Facebook como la más utilizada. La contaminación y el cambio climático fueron identificados como los problemas ambientales más críticos. Quedó evidenciado que tanto el Internet como las redes sociales se han convertido en herramientas clave para la educación ambiental entre los jóvenes. A pesar de lo anterior, el exceso de información y la falta de regulación de la misma suponen riesgos de desinformación entre los jóvenes, por lo que se considera necesario fomentar el pensamiento crítico entre los mismos, con la finalidad de que sean capaces de discernir y estructurar información útil sobre el cambio climático y otras problemáticas ambientales.

The importance of preventive measures against chronic pancreatitis in diseases of the biliary tract and gallbladder
Authors: Hontsariuk D. O. , Hristich T. M. , Zhigulova E. O.
Published: December 2024

In this article, the authors discuss the therapeutic and preventive focus of medical treatments for gallbladder diseases, particularly chronic cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, and postcholecystectomy syndrome. In addition to preventing the progression of chronic inflammation of the gallbladder, it is essential to prevent the formation of gallstones. It is crucial to prevent the formation of biliary sludge and stones. The need for of routine and periodicity in food intake (4–6 meals per day is recommended) is emphasized, along with the restriction of foods containing cholesterol and fatty acids, the addition of dietary fiber in the form of vegetables and fruits, bran in the form of cereals and bread, and the use of proprietary pharmaceuticals. When body mass has increased, a gradual decrease and a low-calorie diet are advised. It is vital that the diet contain an optimal ratio of plant- and animal-based proteins. Compliance with these conditions contributes to normal gallbladder function. An active lifestyle, physical education, and sports are recommended to prevent gallbladder stagnation, as they reduce biliary stagnation and hypercholesterolemia.
Detailed discussion is provided on conservative and surgical treatments for biliary sludge and cholelithiasis. This treatment is administered for biliary colic, upon the risk of complications, complications that have already occurred, and an increased risk of gallbladder cancer. It is suggested that drug litholysis utilizing ursodeoxycholic acid medications is the primary therapeutic approach. It is critical to consider the indications and contraindications for drug litholysis; re-treatment is recommended in cases of relapse. The authors discuss the principles of minimally invasive (extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and contact litholysis) and invasive techniques for surgical treatment (cholecystectomy, cholecystolithotomy, and cholecystostomy), indications and contraindications for their use. To prevent postoperative complications, appropriate precautions are taken into account. The treatment and prevention of postcholecystectomy syndrome are highlighted. The significance of balneotherapy in cholelithiasis secondary prevention is emphasized.
Review of the AGA guidelines for the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (2023): what, to whom, and how to administer?

Published: December 2024

Нещодавно Американська гастроентерологічна асоціація (AGA) презентувала сучасні рекомендації з лікування екзокринної недостатності підшлункової залози (ЕНПЗ). Воно є відносно мінімалістичним та містить всього 15 положень, які мають суто практичну спрямованість, чітко регламентують дії лікарів під час обстеження та лікування хворих. Деякі положення настанови AGA повністю співпадають з відомими європейськими, великобританськими рекомендаціями, деякі значно відрізняються. Американські експерти наполягають на своєчасному діагностуванні та ініціюванні терапії одразу після встановлення діагнозу для зменшення довгострокових наслідків нелікованої ЕНПЗ. Сучасним тестом, достатнім для встановлення ЕНПЗ, експерти AGA вважають визначення фекальної еластази 1, але застосовують зовсім інші порогові значення цього показника для підтвердження ЕНПЗ. Ефективна замісна ферментна терапія, основана на призначенні ферментних препаратів тваринного походження, покращує якість життя завдяки контролю симптомів, знижує смертність і захворюваність пацієнтів з ЕНПЗ. На відміну від інших міжнародних настанов, експерти AGA наводять перелік торгових назв ферментних препаратів, рекомендованих FDA для лікування ЕНПЗ, та підкреслюють переваги застосування кишковорозчинних мікросфер та мінітаблеток. Стартова доза ферментних препаратів, яку необхідно приймати з основними прийомами їжі, відрізняється від європейських, великобританських рекомендацій: за думкою експертів AGA починати терапію слід з 40 000 ОД ліпази з основними прийомами їжі. Настанова AGA вважає необхідним проведення динамічного контролю за станом пацієнтів з ЕНПЗ; у стабільних пацієнтів рекомендується його щорічне проведення із визначенням вмісту маркерів хронічного запалення, оцінкою нутритивного статусу, дослідженням вмісту жиро- та деяких водорозчинних вітамінів, мінералів, скринінгом цукрового діабету та визначенням щільності кісткової тканини.
Pediatric robot-assisted surgery: realities and prospects for use

Published: December 2024

The article provides an overview of pediatric robot-assisted surgery: the history of the technique, the main robot-assisted platforms, the available evidence base, advantages, and disadvantages. It has been proven that the data available in the literature regarding the expediency of using minimally invasive surgery remain quite limited. The main direction that requires further refinement is the development of robotic tools capable of working in small body cavities. In addition, the use of robotic techniques in some areas is still limited due to the lack of large comparative studies.
We analyzed literature data on the successful use of abdominal robot-assisted surgery among pediatric patients in robotic gastric fundoplication, minimally invasive hepatobiliary surgery, splenectomy, herniotomy, Hirschsprung’s disease, pediatric urology, and oncology.
The main shortcomings and future prospects of the development of robotic surgery in pediatric practice are considered, namely, high financial costs for the equipment and its further maintenance, high prices for replaceable disposable equipment, technical limitations, and the duration of training. In the future, due to an increase in the number of operations and a potential competitive market, robotic surgery can lead to a reduction in direct costs, mainly due to a reduction in the length of hospitalization. Minimally invasive surgery in pediatric practice is a relatively new field that has been developing over the past two decades and needs the development of new techniques and instruments that require less port distance or single port access.
However, recent studies, including systematic reviews, meta-analyses, comparative studies, and prospective case series, have demonstrated the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic surgery for many congenital and acquired surgical diseases in children. Robotic minimally invasive surgery is a promising technique that has unconditional future prospects.

EL LADRÓN DE LEVITA, DE JORGE VELASCO MACKENZIE, UN APRENDIZ DEL MAL EN CONTEXTOS VIOLENTOS
Authors: Correa Mariagusta
Published: December 2024

La presente investigación cualitativa explora y analiza la novela El ladrón de levita, de Jorge Velasco Mackenzie, desde una perspectiva humanística y flosófca, asistida por un rastreo documental, teórico y crítico, que sustenta la labor hermenéutica planteada. A partir de ello, formula la construcción del sujeto infractor y su elección por la ética del mal, debido a condiciones biográfcas y a su exposición aprácticas reñidas con el bien, es decir, a su inmersión irreversible dentro de entornos violentos. Este proceso de construcción es detallado usando la misma expresión del personaje, “trinidad del mal” que, a manera de un tríptico, aborda los siguientes panelestemáticos: la elección por el mal, la materialización del mal en otra trinidad y la delimitación de los bordes entre el mal y lo ani-mal. El bestialismo, como tema complementario de esta novela plantea el desafío de explorar más detenidamente la tradición narrativa del Ecuador, con el propósito de mirar el comportamiento de este motivo y sus formas de representación y signifcados.
Palabras clave: El ladrón de levita, Jorge Velasco Mackenzie, narrativa ecuatoriana, ética del mal, criminal, bestialismo. AbstractThis qualitative research explores and analyzes the novel El ladrón de levita by Jorge Velasco Mackenzie from a humanistic and philosophical perspective, supported by documentary, theoretical, and critical research that supports the proposed hermeneutic workFrom this, he formulates the construction of the ofending subject and its choice of the ethics of evil due to biographical conditions and its exposure to practices contrary to the good, that is, its irreversible immersion in violent environments. This process of constructionis through the same carácter expression, “trinity of evil,” which, as a triptych, addresses the following thematic panels: the choice of evil, the materialization of evil in another trinity, and the delimitation of the boundaries between evil and the ani-evil. Bestialism,as a complementary theme of this novel, poses the challenge of exploring more closely the Ecuadorian narrative tradition in order to study the behavior of this motif and its forms of representation and meanings.

Female Founding: An Institutional Theory Perspective on the Effect of Gender-Specific Prejudices in Germany
Authors: Walkenhorst Andreas , Sturm Christian , Westarp Natalie
Published: December 2024

This research is focused on whether female entrepreneurs face institutional discrimination based on prejudices. Therefore, in consideration of the institutional theory, this paper aims to clarify how informal institutions, such as norms, values and attitudes of society impact female entrepreneurship. To visualize these informal norms, values and attitudes of society towards women, common prejudices against women were utilized.
In-depth interviews with female entrepreneurs (n = 19) were conducted and an inductive qualitative analysis was performed to examine the extent to which societal perceptions and attitudes, expressed through prejudices, regarding the education and entrepreneurial skills of women, influence the motivation and self-perception of female entrepreneurs.
The results revealed that the analyzed prejudices represent obsolete social perceptions against women without validity and justification. However, the results demonstrate the negative influence – directly or indirectly – of prejudices on the behavior, career choices, motivation, and self-perception of female entrepreneurs. The results provide possible explanations for the differences between women and men in entrepreneurship and thus advance the discussion on the underrepresentation of women in entrepreneurial settings.

Authors: Zielinski Katheryn , Rosacker Robert E.
Published: December 2024

This research presents empirical findings associated with the delivery of peer-supported supplemental instruction in the undergraduate principles of financial accounting course. Attention is directed at the differential effects for treatments between and within diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) groupings through empirical assessments for all students and specific subsets that represent targets of a statewide initiative. Demographic groups were formed and assessed by students of color, international students, underrepresented status, and first-generation students. Results reveal positive impacts for students as a whole as well as DEIB groups. This investigation provides evidence and a solid framework for ongoing efforts to eliminate educational gaps.
Exploring the Dynamics of Career Events in Education: A Study Using Activity Theory
Authors: Nash Kyle , Kalyvaki Maria
Published: December 2024

Numerous educational institutions employ career events (CEs) to enhance students' overall learning experiences, but further research is required to optimize these events. Utilizing activity theory, this study seeks to systematically investigate the interplay between collective and individual factors that shape students' experiences during CEs. 463 survey respondents with recent and significant networking CE exposure participated in the study. The results confirm the proposed research model, indicating that the student experience construct comprises a multi-dimensional framework of second-order components, including individual and peer experiences, each encompassing a set of first-order constructs. The results also validate that students' experiences can predict subsequent perceived value and satisfaction evaluations. The study's limitations, research, and practical implications for crafting meaningful and fulfilling experiences for CE attendees are discussed.
Exploring the Influence of Organizational Culture on Dimensions of Organizational Learning at the University of the Bahamas: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach
Authors: Styles Jason K. , Dean Debra J.
Published: December 2024

This study examines the relationship between organizational culture (OC) and organizational learning (OL) at the University of The Bahamas (UB), contributing to international human resources development (HRD) research. Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), a sophisticated statistical technique, the research explores how different OC types (clan, adhocracy, market, and hierarchy) impact OL at various organizational levels. By focusing on a higher education institution (HEI) in a developing country, the study expands our understanding of OC's influence on OL beyond developed nations. This research is particularly noteworthy for its use of SEM in the Bahamas, highlighting its adaptability and effectiveness in HRD research, especially in international and culturally diverse contexts. The findings provide valuable insights into the interplay between OC and OL, offering practical recommendations for HEIs to foster continuous learning and improvement. Key contributions include filling a gap in the HRD literature by examining OC and OL within a Bahamian HEI, showcasing SEM's superior capability in handling complex interdependencies, and providing fresh perspectives and practical recommendations for developing effective learning environments in HEIs in developing countries. The study underscores the importance of adaptable and culturally sensitive analytical approaches in HRD, offering a robust framework for enhancing organizational learning within diverse global contexts.
AI-Driven railway regulator inspection planning system: enhancing railway safety inspection prioritisation and incident management
Authors: Chiu Coe M Y
Published: December 2024

This paper presents an innovative approach, with an application named AI-Driven Railway Regulator Inspection Planning System (the System), to enhance the safety inspection prioritisation and incident management of railways from regulator's perspective. The conventional approach to inspection planning relies on predetermined schedules and the manual selection of inspection items, which is time consuming and not conducive to objectively identifying high-risk assets and optimising resources. The system utilises Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithms to quickly extract the semantic meaning of incident and maintenance deferral details, analyse information from various data sources, and derive the relationship among the incidents, maintenance deferrals, and inspection items. Finally, the System assigns weights based on the severity level to generate the normalised risk score of assets. The System also collects and analyses incident data to identify patterns and facilitate trend analysis, with a user-friendly search interface for the efficient retrieval of past cases, assisting in incident analysis. The System was successfully deployed in Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD), the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) of the People’s Republic of China, demonstrating benefits such as an enhanced understanding of incident relationship, streamlined inspection planning, and proactive safety improvement. The System offers valuable guidance for wider application in railway systems, fostering improved safety, operational efficiency, and resource optimisation.
ON CRIMINAL PUNISHMENT AND DIGITALIZATION
Authors: Russkevich Evgeny
Published: December 2024

The paper addresses the problems of criminal punishment and digitalization, which has a modifying effect on all spheres of public life. The spread of information and communication technologies is a harbinger of significant changes in the institution of criminal punishment. The content and possible results of the digitalization of punishment are an urgent research task of the modern science of criminal law. The purpose of the study is to obtain new theoretical knowledge about the prospects of the modifying effect of digital technologies on the institution of criminal punishment. According to the results of the study, the following conclusions were obtained: 1) in modern conditions, it is possible to identify such areas of punishment transformation in a digital society as changing the system of punishments, digitalization of the appointment and execution of punishment; 2) taking into account the development of «big data» technologies, it seems promising to supplement the criminal law with a new type of punishment – a decrease in the rating of public trustworthiness;
3) digitalization creates conditions for the full implementation of a hybrid model Justice;
4) the creation of a closed loop of the information and telecommunications infrastructure of the punishment execution system (with a built-in messenger, e-mail, video visiting service, access to an electronic library, certain news resources and legal systems) seems to be the most optimal solution in strengthening confidence in the institution of punishment in Russia.
Jackson, Diderot and the round and red cherries
Authors: Pierrès Raphaël
Published: December 2024

This article explores what Diderot's treatment of Molyneux's question can teach us about qualia. Is there within perception an irreducible dimension of sensory donation that grants us access to specific knowledge, which cannot be obtained otherwise? In section 1, I place the story of the child who would never have seen red in the Essay Concerning Human Understanding in relation to Jackson's example of Mary the physicist who knows the whole theory of optics without ever having seen a colour. In section 2, I reinterpret Diderot's response, which offers an alternative approach to Molyneux's question and consequently to the problem of qualia. Indeed, Diderot considered the idea that a blind mathematician, upon gaining sight, could distinguish and demonstrate the respective properties of the circle and the square.
The Effect of a Specialized Dyslexia Arabic Font, Arabolexia, on Reading Performance of Children with Dyslexia
Authors: Benmarrakchi Fatimaezzahra , Majdoubi Nouhayla , Zarik Manal
Published: December 2024

: Dyslexia-friendly fronts have gained interest thanks to their potential advantages on the reading performance of dyslexic children. Most studies, however, were done on Latin-based languages, such as English. Studies investigating the reading performance of people with dyslexia in languages with different writing systems, such as Arabic, remain scarce. Arabolexia, a font developed for dyslexic Arabic speakers, has demonstrated a facilitatory effect on the reading of children with dyslexia. Yet, the features contributing to these advantages have not been empirically studied. The current study examines the elements of Arabolexia —such as letterform, spacing, and font size —that might improve reading. We compared the reading performance of dyslexic children (n=45, mean age = 11.10 years) using texts in both Arabolexia and Simplified Arabic font, a widely used standard font, under four conditions: default Arabolexia, Simplified Arabic with matched font size only, Simplified Arabic with matched spacing only, and Simplified Arabic over-all matching. The results show that Arabolexia’s advantages disappear when Simplified Arabic is adjusted to match its spacing. These findings suggest that the facilitatory effect of Arabolexia stems from its spacing parameters rather than its unique design.
Direct observation of small scale capillary wave turbulence using high speed digital holographic microscopy
Authors: Connacher William , Orosco Jeremy , Schmidt Oliver T. , Friend James
Published: December 2024

Introduction

It is now known that capillary waves driven upon a fluid interface by high frequency (>1 MHz) ultrasound exhibit capillary wave turbulence: the appearance of waves with phase and wavelength far removed from the excitation signal that drives them. These waves are responsible in significant part for atomization, a useful application for ultrasound, though the physics responsible for their appearance is poorly understood.

Methods

We use high-speed digital holographic microscopy to observe these capillary waves, an important step towards understanding their generation and atomization phenomena.

Results

We observe Zakharov-Kolmogorov weak wave turbulence for a limited range of input power, and find broader turbulence phenomena outside this range. We see discrete thresholds as the input power is increased, where higher and higher frequency responses are driven in the capillary waves with sudden onset between regimes.

Discussion

We employed spatial analysis to find extensions of the capillary wave response to higher frequencies, suggesting there is additional information in the spatial distribution of the capillary wave that is rarely if ever measured. We verified via frequency modulation that nonlinear resonance broadening is present, which undermines the use of Faraday wave or parametric wave theories to characterize these waves, important in the context of atomization which is now, definitively, not a Faraday wave process.
Adapting Mintzberg’s organizational theory to DeSci: the decentralized science pyramid framework
Authors: Weidener Lukas , Greilich Konrad , Melnykowycz Mark
Published: December 2024

To solve some of the challenges of traditional science, such as restricted access to funding, centralized governance, and siloed knowledge dissemination, decentralized science (DeSci) has emerged as a transformative approach facilitated by blockchain technology, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), and Web3. However, the emerging field of DeSci, faces several challenges, such as the absence of an organizational framework to describe its inherent complexities. This study introduces the Decentralized Science Pyramid Framework (DSPF), an innovative adaptation of Mintzberg’s organizational structure, adapted to the unique demands and properties of DeSci. The DSPF delineates a structured model for DeSci projects that integrates technology, governance, community engagement, and application within a decentralized context. Through the introduction of the DSPF, this research highlights the operational dynamics of DeSci, focusing on the practical application of Mintzberg’s theories to address real-world scientific challenges. The case study of VitaDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization exemplifying the core principles of DeSci, demonstrates the practical applicability of the DSPF. This study not only advances the academic discourse on DeSci but also offers practical insights for practitioners, innovators, and policymakers, marking a substantial step toward realizing the full potential of decentralized science.
