Exploring the Impact of Constructive News on Student Perceptions and Behavioral Changes
Authors: Mastura Mahamed  , Nurul Anis Mazrulhisham
Published: July 2024

With the rise of constructive journalism, there is a growing recognition of the importance of focusing on positive aspects in news reporting rather than solely highlighting negative events. The prevalence of negatively framed news, particularly in the era of social media infodemic, has led to low engagement and negative perception among the public. To fulfil the educational function of news, it is crucial for the news industry and education sector to embrace constructive journalism practices. This study aims to investigate the impact of problem-solving elements in constructive news on student perceptions and behavioural changes. Using a quantitative approach, 390 respondents were surveyed, and descriptive and correlational analyses were conducted using SPSS to examine the relationship between student behaviours and problem-solving elements in constructive news. The results indicate a significant relationship between the two variables. These findings highlight the importance of implementing constructive journalism in both journalistic practice and education. Additionally, this study serves as a foundation for future researchers to conduct more comprehensive investigations in this field.
Relationship between Work-Study Conflict and Academic Stress among Internship Students
Authors: Vinez Tania  , Rahmah Hastuti
Published: July 2024

Currently, As the number of students balancing internships with academic responsibilities increases, the simultaneous demands of these roles often lead to heightened stress levels. This overlap frequently results in Work-Study Conflict (WSC), where the challenges of managing both work and study contribute to significant stress. This study explores the prevalence of WSC and its impact on academic stress among students. Participants included 170 students (both male and female), aged 18-23 years, who were enrolled at University X and engaged in internships requiring about 40 hours per week. The Work-School Conflict Scale was used to measure WSC, and the Perceptions of Academic Stress Scale assessed academic stress. Utilizing a non-experimental correlational design with quantitative methods, Pearson's correlation analysis was applied to test the hypothesis. The results indicated a significant positive relationship between WSC and academic stress, with an r(170) = 0.545 and p = 0.000, demonstrating a notable correlation between the variables.

Published: July 2024

The demand to apply digital technology is a must for all elements of education in higher education. Almost all higher education tri-dharma activities are carried out using digital technology. The implementation of semester exams both online and offline is carried out along with the use of online learning media such as E-Learning, Classroom, Whatsapp, etc. There is also a special application for final assessment so that student test scores are calculated using the application. The problem is how prepared the resources in higher education are in using digital technology. This research aims to analyse the opportunities and challenges in conducting semester exams using digital technology. The research method uses qualitative methods with a post-positivism paradigm. Data were obtained from direct observation and in-depth interviews with relevant informants. The results of the study show that the opportunities for conducting semester exams using digital technology are the ease of implementation and the achievement of effectiveness and efficiency. While the challenge is the fulfilment of the factors that support the readiness of all resources so that the implementation of the semester exams can run smoothly.
Sovereignty beyond Borders: Unraveling the Enigma of Airspace and Outer Space Interplay
Authors: Cardellini Leipertz Raoul
Published: July 2024

This paper examines the complex issue of delimitation and sovereignty in airspace and outer space, tracing the evolution of these concepts from ancient jurisprudence to contemporary international law. The study delves into the origins of air sovereignty, emphasizing the legal maxim "Cuius est solum eius usque ad coelum et ad inferos" and the subsequent development of aviation law, including the pivotal Convention on International Civil Aviation. It further explores the nascent field of space law, highlighting the Outer Space Treaty and its designation of outer space as res communis humanitatis. The paper analyzes various attempts to delineate a boundary between airspace and outer space, contrasting the spatialist, functionalist, and "wait-and-see" approaches. It evaluates the pros and cons of establishing a clear demarcation, considering technological advancements and geopolitical tensions. Potential solutions are proposed, including drawing analogies from the Law of the Sea and enhancing the role of international organizations such as ICAO. The paper underscores the urgency of resolving these issues to ensure normative certainty and address the growing congestion in the skies.

Authors: Rajurkar Nilima , Kantak Shailesh , Kale Babita
Published: July 2024

Ayurvedic Bhasma, an ancient form of Indian traditional medicine, represents a unique class of herbo-mineral formulations prepared through a meticulous process involving calcination. This review provides a comprehensive synthesis and characterization of Ayurvedic Bhasmas, focusing on its preparation methods, physicochemical properties, and characterization. The synthesis of Bhasma involves a series of Shodhana (purification), Marana (incineration), and Bhavana (soaking and drying) processes, each contributing to the transformation of raw minerals and herbs into bioavailable nanoparticles with enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicity. The review delves into the intricate processes involved in the production of various bhasmas, prepared in our laboratory as well as reports by other researchers. It also highlights modern scientific techniques used to characterize these formulations, including XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR, AAS, NAA, DLS etc. These techniques reveal the nanoscale size, crystalline structure, and elemental composition of bhasmas, providing insights into their therapeutic potential and safety profiles.

Published: July 2024

Global issues such as climate change, social injustice, and corporate misconduct have driven the emergence of the Environmental, Social, & Governance (ESG) concept as the foundation of business and investment strategies. While Indonesia has been a pioneer in ESG bond issuance, further steps are still needed to support national policies and ensure alignment with ASEAN and G20 goals in supporting sustainable finance. This study aims to determine the effect of CEO characteristics, namely Gender and Education, on the Environmental, Social, & Governance (ESG) of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The literature shows that Gender, Education, and CEO Experienxe affect the company's funding policy and capital structure, but the impact on ESG implementation is unclear. This study used a sample of 365 with a total of 73 companies. The data processing method used is panel linear regression analysis using RStudio software. The results showed that CEO gender has an insignificant positive effect, CEO education has a significant positive effect, and CEO experience has a significant negative effect on the ESG strategy score. The results of the study are expected to help companies in making policies to improve ESG and help investors in choosing ESG companies.

Authors: Caldeira Celestino , Guterres Antonio
Published: July 2024

Improving the performance of supervisors and the quality of student education has a positive relationship because a maximum and good learning style will provide good quality education. The hypothesis of the supervisor performance variable (X) on the quality of education (Y) of students in Ensino Basico 3o Ciclo Turiscai shows that there is a positive and significant influence individually because the ttable > is 7,937> 2,000 then Ha is accepted.  This means that better supervisor performance (X) will provide higher quality education for students at Ensino Basico 3o Ciclo Turiscai. From the results of the calculation of a simple regression correlation analysis, it shows that the coefficient (r) of 0.722 or 72.2% means that the supervisory performance variable (X) has a fairly close relationship or has a strong enough correlation with the variable Education quality (Y) in Ensino Basico 3o Ciclo Turiscai and the coefficient of determination (r2) of 0.521 or 52.1% means that the contribution or contribution of supervisor performance (X) is given to the variable Education quality (Y) of 0.521 or 52.1% while The remaining 47.9% was influenced by other factors. Based on the calculation results with a simple linear regression analysis model, the value is obtained that the supervisory performance variable (X) shows a unidirectional or positive regression coefficient value of 0.628 against the education quality variable (Y). This can be interpreted that the performance of supervisors (X) affects the quality of education (Y) by 0.628 or 62.8% in Ensino Basico 3o Ciclo Turiscai.
Fraud Prevention Strategies and Financial Stability of Insurance Companies in Kenya
Authors: Andia Shirleen
Published: July 2024

Insurance companies play a crucial role in reducing risks and uncertainties, making them a vital part of the economy. However, they are vulnerable to various types of fraudulent activities, such as false claims, premium misuse, and financial record manipulation. While efforts have been made to address these challenges, more investigation is needed to determine the effectiveness of fraud prevention methods in maintaining financial stability. This research project aims to bridge this gap by exploring the empirical connections between internal control frameworks, transaction monitoring processes, financial audit procedures, and the overall financial stability of insurance companies in the Kenyan market. The goal is to understand how these techniques can deter fraud, promote regulatory compliance, and strengthen the organizational structures in the industry. Additionally, the study examines established theories like agency theory, risk management theory, institutional theory, and game theory to clarify the theoretical basis supporting these tactics and their impact on the financial stability and longevity of insurance companies. The conclusion of the study offers valuable insights regarding the correlation between fraud prevention measures and financial stability within the insurance sector.
ISCAP in the Shadow of the Russian-Ukrainian War
Authors: Pintér Tibor
Published: July 2024

After the shock of the coronavirus, the world was hit by another blow: the Russian-Ukrainian war. This had a number of effects on the world, causing inflation and an energy price explosion. In the case of Africa, even food security was at risk due to the decline in Russian and Ukrainian grain.
However, what is chaos for the world is an opportunity for jihadist movements to gain strength, as the burden on citizens increases social discontent. The situation in sub-Saharan East Africa is no different. The Islamic State's youngest province, ISCAP (Islamic State of Central Africa Province), created in 2019, remains dangerous, although the jihadist movements that make it up are not achieving the spectacular successes of the past. The Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) is based in the Congo-Uganda border region, while al-Shabaab in Mozambique has emerged in the northern province of Cabo Delgado. Their exact links to the Islamic State are not fully known, but recent reports suggest that the Islamic State of Somalia may be a center of back-and-forth communication between the two parties.
The study focuses on ISCAP and the period since the Russian-Ukrainian war. In other words, what trends can be observed, how dangerous they could be and, most importantly, what opportunities they face and what kind of response is coming from the security forces. For the status of jihadist organisations, I refer to Stig Jarle Hansen's book Horn, Sahel and Rift, published in 2019. For the others, I rely on reports, analyses and, above all, recent news that may bring about changes in the way things have been done so far, one example being the LNG project being built in Cabo Delgado.

Authors: Al-Foudayi Abeer Abdo Hizam Sufyan
Published: July 2024

The study of textual cohesion is a recent trend in the linguistic lesson. Recurrence is one of the topics of textual cohesion at the lexical level through which the existence of textual cohesion can be determined through the effect that repetition has on textual cohesion.
Studies have been striving to investigate the effect of repetition on textual cohesion through text grammar, so the importance of this study lies in the fact that it made a contribution in this field.
This study examines the textual cohesion in Surah Al-Kahf through the element of repetition, as it is one of the prominent aspects of textual cohesion. The study relied on choosing Surah Al-Kahf specifically due to the abundance and variety of repetition found within this surah, encompassing repetition at the level of letters, words, sentences, and entire Quranic verses.

A interseção entre internacionalização e docência na educação superior nas pesquisas da pós-graduação brasileira
Authors: Woicolesco Vanessa Gabrielle , Morosini Marilia Costa
Published: July 2024

Na educação superior, o sentido estrito da docência está relacionado ao conhecimento do campo científico em uma perspectiva que o inter-relaciona, a partir de um saber pedagógico, com o ensino, a pesquisa e a extensão no processo de formação humana e de produção de outros conhecimentos. Na atualidade, o trabalho do docente sofre impactos do processo de globalização e de internacionalização, os quais modificam o paradigma da docência universitária e trazem implicações para os processos de ensino e aprendizagem. Este estudo[1] tem como objetivo analisar a intersecção entre internacionalização e docência da Educação Superior, presente na produção de dissertações e teses nos programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu brasileiros. Utilizou-se a metodologia do Estado do Conhecimento, tendo sido delimitado como recorte temporal os anos de 2001 a 2022. Os resultados indicam a necessidade de revisitar o papel da docência universitária nos contextos emergentes, pois as complexidades impostas à educação superior na contemporaneidade exigem práticas docentes mais inclusivas e integradas, que valorizem e respeitem a diversidade cultural e promovam a convivência e a comunicação intercultural no campus universitário. Destacamos a relevância da inclusão de estratégias voltadas ao desenvolvimento profissional docente no planejamento institucional de internacionalização. Em síntese, as pesquisas analisadas enfatizam a relevância de desenvolvimento profissional com foco na internacionalização, tendo sido constatado que essa formação tem ressonâncias na formação da identidade profissional docente.
 
[1] Este trabalho constitui-se como um recorte da pesquisa de Doutorado desenvolvida pela primeira autora junto ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul, que teve como tema central analisar o impacto da Internacionalização da Educação Superior para a docência universitária.

Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar tendências da formação de professores e professoras no contexto da pós-graduação das áreas de avaliação de educação e ensino na Amazônia brasileira, com foco nas pluralidades dos saberes da região, com recorte para os estados do Pará e do Amapá. Caracteriza-se a pesquisa como um estado do conhecimento que se utilizou dos estudos de Morosini, Kohls-Santos e Bittencourt (2021), da técnica de análise de conteúdo a partir de Bardin (2016) e da abordagem qualitativa. O corpus do estudo foi constituído por teses e dissertações dos programas de pós-graduação em educação da UFPA e da UNIFAP, e do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação Profissional e Tecnológica, o ProfEPT, da área de ensino e realizado em rede pelos Institutos Federais de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia. A busca utilizou o Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações da Capes e o Observatório do ProfEPT. O recorte temporal compreendeu os anos de 2018 a 2022 e o aporte teórico crítico, alinhado à defesa da diversidade sociocultural dos povos amazônidas, é balizado por autores que discorrem sobre formação de professores numa perspectiva de formação humana emancipadora. Os resultados mostram o total de 15 trabalhos, vinculados a três linhas de pesquisa, uma linha em cada programa. As produções problematizam a formação de professores e os saberes das Amazônias principalmente nas temáticas de Políticas Educacionais, Educação do Campo e Currículo. Entre as tendências, destacamos: as organizações dos programas em rede e, nas teses e dissertações, o posicionamento crítico, contra-hegemônico. Esperamos contribuir com novas perspectivas para o campo do conhecimento da formação de professores nas Amazônias a fim de que substanciem novos estudos, políticas e práticas educacionais para o território.
Formação docente e situações de trabalho: tendências em teses e dissertações no contexto amazônico
Authors: Camargo Arlete Maria Monte de , Nascimento Flávio Nogueira do , Rodrigues Glenda Caroline Meireles da Costa
Published: July 2024

Dentre as principais tendências que caracterizam a formação docente nos últimos trinta anos, destaca-se a formação realizada ao longo do exercício profissional, ou em situação de trabalho. Os conceitos utilizados são diversos, conforme a orientação teórica de quem os utiliza, sobretudo aqueles que se aproximam dos processos de mercantilização da educação. Um dos termos mais utilizados é o de formação continuada, conceito polissêmico que apresenta diversos entendimentos; outro é a formação em serviço, considerada, dentre outras características, a de menor custo. Têm em comum a premissa de que a formação docente se dá continuamente, seja em âmbito escolar ou não, além de processos formativos que apontam para a socialização profissional em situações de trabalho. Identificar como essas tendências se manifestam no contexto amazônico é a nossa intenção, pois a diversidade na organização social e econômica se intensifica e contribui para a inibição das oportunidades educacionais. Para tal, utilizar-se-á a metodologia do estado do conhecimento, a partir de teses e dissertações produzidas nos programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu em educação, temas recorrentes, principais ausências, além das bases teórico-metodológicas. Os resultados apontam para uma diversidade conceitual nas produções analisadas, o que indica que se trata de um conceito com várias acepções, que têm em comum, nessas produções, a continuidade dos processos formativos, que sofrem modificações nas relações entre formação e trabalho docente.

Os aspectos metodológicos configuram-se por ser uma pesquisa-ação (Engel, 2000; Franco, 2005; Tripp, 2005) de cunho qualitativo (Gil, 2022, 2008). O instrumento de coleta de dados ocorreu por meio do grupo focal (Gatti, 2005). Como resultado final, oportunizamos às participantes o aperfeiçoamento do ensino da leitura nas turmas para as quais lecionam a língua portuguesa no ensino médio.
Common but Differentiated Responsibility in Climate and Genocide Cases
Authors: Wissing Ruben
Published: July 2024

The search for a more equitable and legally binding responsibility distribution mechanism in global refugee protection starts with the question what responsibility states bear for the protection of refugees and other forced migrants outside of their territory. Here I discuss two potential avenues within international law: the operationalised international law principles of cooperation and solidarity, based on their application in climate cases; and the Responsibility to Protect (RtoP) doctrine from international humanitarian law. The distribution mechanism they both apply might be useful to establish and define extraterritorial protection obligations of states towards refugees.
Efficacy and Safety of Combination of Noscapine and Chlorpheniramine in Management of Cold and Cough
Authors: Dr Krishna Deepak Sathiraju
Published: July 2024

Cough is one of the most common symptoms for which patients visit the doctor. Because of its broad differential diagnosis,cough is a challenging condition to manage. Antitussives or cough suppressants are indicated if cough interferes with dailyactivities. Cough suppressants not only provide symptomatic relief by decreasing cough, they also prevent the spread ofinfection. Noscapine is a non-narcotic cough suppressant, which relieves cough by acting at the level of the cough centerin the brain. It does not cause significant sedative, euphoric, or hypnotic effects, and other side effects such as respiratorysuppression and constipation that are typically associated with opioids. Hence, unlike other opioid antitussives such ascodeine, noscapine is nonaddictive.

Multilevel growth assessment of mungbean production in Madhya Pradesh
Authors: Rekha Rani  , Uma Sah  , Hemant Kumar  , Rajesh Bishnoi  , Ashish Ranjan Udgata
Published: July 2024

The present study aimed to examine the growth performance of mungbean in Madhya Pradesh, which is the second-highest pulse-producing state in India. With the development of short-duration mungbean varieties, the crop can be cultivated in spring/summer along with Kharif and Rabi seasons. The districtwise time series data on the area, production, and productivity of mungbean in Madhya Pradesh was collected. The growth performance and instability were analyzed using the Compound Annual Growth Rate and Cuddy Della Valle Index. Further, the decomposition analysis was performed to examine the sources of growth in mungbean production. The growth performance was also examined for major mungbean-producing districts of Madhya Pradesh viz; Narmadapuram (Hoshangabad), Sehore, Harda, Narshingpur, and Raisen districts. The growth performance of mungbean in Madhya Pradesh was examined for sub-period I (2000-01 to 2009-10) and sub-period II (2010-11 to 2019-20). The study revealed that the Narmadapuram division of Madhya Pradesh recorded the highest growth rate in area and production for the period 2010-11 to 2019-20. Higher growth rate and instability in the area, production, and productivity was observed in sub-period II which may be attributed to the incentives under NFSM-pulses and area coverage under summer mungbean cultivation during the last decade.
Decomposition of production growth and identification of efficient cropping zones for major pulse crops in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand
Authors: Gyan Singh  , Rahil Akhtar Usmani
Published: July 2024

The study’s goal is to decompose pulse production growth in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand and identify efficient copping zones for both states. The total change in production was decomposed into three effects, i.e., the area effect (ΔA. Y0), the yield effect (ΔY. A0.), and the interaction effect (ΔA. ΔY). The relative spread index (RSI) and relative yield index (RYI) were computed to identify the potential cropping districts for different pulses grown in Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. We classified districts into four zones: most efficient, efficient, not efficient, and highly inefficient. A higher RYI corresponds to higher yield districts, and a higher RSI indicates a more cultivated area. Districts with a high relative spread index and a low relative yield index indicate that a particular pulse is not suitable for that district. We suggest addressing production issues through research, marketing, and extension services to enhance the productivity level of pulse crops. The results from Uttar Pradesh are highly encouraging, indicating that the yield effect has primarily contributed to the growth in pulse production. The government’s policies, schemes, and initiatives to promote pulse production and decrease imports are moving in the right direction. According to the methodological analysis, 57 districts are among the most efficient cropping zones for all selected pulse crops in Uttar Pradesh. In the case of Uttarakhand, for all selected pulses, 20 percent of districts come under the most efficient cropping zone, and 20 percent of districts come under the most efficient cropping zone. The highest 40 percent of districts fell under highly inefficient cropping zones. Lack of high-quality inputs, technology adoption, and poor market and extension services may be the reasons for low productivity in these districts. An increase in productivity with low costs could help the country reduce imports of pulses and check the flow of foreign currency.

Authors: S. Ahmad Muntaser , Rumman Maysra , Atawneh Areej , Ishak Jumana
Published: July 2024

The incidence of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is rising annually, necessitating effective monitoring strategies. Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) are pivotal in this regard but differ in diagnostic accuracy due to their distinct imaging capabilities. This retrospective study evaluates 56 lymphoma patients using both modalities at Al-Ahli Hospital, Hebron, Palestine, from 2020 to 2023. Demographic and clinical data, alongside imaging findings, were analyzed. Results indicate PET/CT's superiority over CT alone, with higher sensitivity, specificity, precision, Accuracy where CT findings were 20%, 30.61%, 0.72%, and 30.34% retrospectively compared with PET/CT findings. Gender-specific analysis revealed marginal associations, highlighting the need for tailored imaging strategies. The study underscores PET/CT's enhanced diagnostic performance in lymphoma surveillance, advocating its use for improved patient management and outcomes. Further research could refine these findings, addressing the evolving landscape of lymphoma imaging.
Care Patterns and Barriers to Outpatient Care for Adults With AML Following Intensive Chemotherapy at NCCN Member Institutions
Authors: Halpern Anna B. , Sugalski Jessica M. , Bandini Lindsey , Othus Megan , Stewart F. Marc , Walter Roland B.
Published: July 2024

Background: Prolonged hospitalization following intensive (re)induction chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), while standard, is costly and resource intense, limits inpatient bed capacity, and negatively impacts quality of life. Early hospital discharge (EHD) following completion of chemotherapy has proven safe as an alternative at select institutions, but is not widely implemented. Patients and Methods: From February 2023 through May 2023, the NCCN Best Practices Committee conducted a survey evaluating AML hospitalization patterns, care models, and barriers to EHD at its 33 member institutions. Results: A total of 30 (91%) institutions completed the survey; two-thirds treat >100 patients with AML annually and 45% treat more than half of these with intensive chemotherapy. In the (re)induction setting, 80% of institutions keep patients hospitalized until blood count recovery, whereas 20% aim to discharge patients after completion of chemotherapy if medically stable and logistically feasible. The predominant reasons for the perceived need for ongoing hospitalization were high risk of infection, treatment toxicities, and lack of nearby/accessible housing. There was no significant association between ability to practice EHD and annual AML volume or treatment intensity patterns (P=.60 and P=.11, respectively). In contrast, in the postremission setting, 87% of centers support patients following chemotherapy in the outpatient setting unless toxicities arise requiring readmission. Survey responses showed that 80% of centers were interested in exploring EHD after (re)induction but noted significant barriers, including accessible housing (71%), transportation (50%), high toxicity/infection rate (50%), high transfusion burden (50%), and limited bed availability for rehospitalization (50%). Conclusions: Hospitalization and care patterns following intensive AML therapy vary widely across major US cancer institutions. Although only 20% of surveyed centers practice EHD following intensive (re)induction chemotherapy, 87% do so following postremission therapy. Given the interest in exploring the EHD approach given potential advantages of EHD for both patients and health care systems, strategies to address identified medical and logistical barriers should be explored.

The role of community identity in changing online gamers’ behavior
Authors: Kristina Anita , Achsan Dzakiy
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this research is to determine the role of community identity on the behavior of online gamers. This research was conducted on the online gaming community X, which consists of students. The method used is qualitative phenomenology with interview data collection techniques. The research results show that the identity behavior of online gamers is determined by their community identity role. This community forms its own norms and values that are mutually agreed upon. The community also motivates the formation of gaming behavior and the intentions of each member’s behavior. The rational individual of action (gamer) is formed by a group of actions based on a community of utility, not an individual utility. Community members must force themselves to gain recognition of their group identity through many irrational acts of conformity.

Radar is a tool that functions to determine the whereabouts of objects in the surroundings. A military defense system requires a system for monitoring and handling certain areas (land, sea, air) effectively and efficiently to prevent unwanted presence from entering private areas. This design is expected to increase the defense system's capabilities to make it easier to automatically track and destroy enemies. The laser gun is an actuator that is integrated to shoot enemies detected by radar. The servo motor drives the ultrasonic sensor and the diode laser which moves from 00 to 1800, the ultrasonic sensor is integrated into the servo motor which functions to detect objects by reflecting ultrasonic waves on the object and receiving them back when the waves hit the object, then the 5V diode laser is used as a weapon. will emit a laser beam when directed at an object detected by the servo motor. Processing3 software is used as a graphic programming tool that can display object detection read by the ultrasonic sensor. The results of this research are that the ultrasonic sensor is capable of detecting objects in the range 0-40cm and the servo motor is capable of reaching angles from 00 to 1800. And this system can work effectively during shooting so that it can meet defense needs in dealing with enemies and can work quickly and precisely.

The aviation industry is one of the service sectors. Due to its large number of users, safety is the primary concern in this industry. To ensure this safety, routine maintenance of operating aircraft is crucial, leading to the emergence of the aircraft maintenance industry. Due to the safety factors of the workpiece, installing ladders requires a significant workforce to supervise the workpiece, namely the aircraft itself, to prevent the ladder from hitting the aircraft body, which can result in COPQ (Cost Of Poor Quality). However, the use of many workers for ladder installation is considered inefficient because the maintenance process could be expedited if these workers could be utilized to install ladders on other parts of the aircraft. Therefore, if maintenance can be completed more quickly, the aircraft can return to flight sooner, meeting the airline's flight demands. Addressing this issue, this study aims to facilitate the ladder installation and removal process, thereby reducing the potential for collisions and ensuring the ladder is positioned at the required distance. This is achieved through ultrasonic sensors mounted on the work ladder, connected to a motor via Arduino Uno. The motor will stop when the input from the ultrasonic sensor reaches the predetermined distance. Additionally, if the aircraft tail moves while the ladder is installed, the system will automatically adjust the ladder's position to maintain the necessary distance, thus minimizing losses during aircraft maintenance.

Review on Photometric Study of Variable Stars
Authors: Aathil Abdullah Mohamed
Published: July 2024

This literature review focuses on variable stars, which exhibit changes in brightness over time. This topic is vital in astronomical research, particularly due to the abundance of telescope data available in archives. The photometric study of variable stars is significant for understanding stellar evolution, classifying stars, and contributing to cosmological research. It enables precise distance measurements, examines exoplanetary systems, and identifies rare astronomical phenomena, thereby expanding our understanding of the universe. The study begins by outlining the fundamentals of variable stars and three methods for analyzing them: photometry, spectroscopy, and spectrophotometry. However, the focus of this study is solely on photometric studies. This work presents an overview of the photometric study of variable stars. Addressing research gaps in photometric studies of variable stars is crucial for improving our understanding of stellar behavior and evolution, with broader implications for astrophysics and cosmology. Future directions include conducting photometric studies on variable stars using machine learning to develop an automated variable star classification system utilizing online telescopic data archives.
Mecanismos para la Provisión Eficiente de Bienes Públicos. Bienestar Público

Este trabajo está orientado a examinar las diferentes herramientas para lograr la provisión de bienes públicos en el marco de la teoría del bienestar público. En igual forma se propondrán políticas públicas para la provisión eficaz de los mismos. Al momento la importancia que se brinda a los bienes públicos como un espacio de igualdad se manifiesta en el Artículo 31 de la Constitución Vigente que manifiesta “Las personas tienen derecho al disfrute pleno de la ciudad y de sus espacios públicos, bajo los principios de sustentabilidad, justicia social, respeto a las diferentes culturas urbanas y equilibrio entre lo urbano y lo rural. El ejercicio del derecho a la ciudad se basa en la gestión democrática de ésta, en la función social y ambiental de la propiedad y de la ciudad, y en el ejercicio pleno de la ciudadanía.  La transparencia es la piedra angular de las políticas públicas en tal virtud todos los ciudadanos tiene el derecho de estar informados de las posibles fuentes de financiamiento de los bienes públicos y el deber de involucrarse en la decisión de como financiarlas, Es de allí que este articulo pretende acercar a los actores económicos en las diferentes formas de provisión de bienes públicos, todos los miembros de la sociedad teóricamente deberían beneficiarse de la provisión de bienes públicos, pero la realidad es que algunos los necesitan más que otros. Por ejemplo, los ricos no necesitan asistencia social y los ancianos todavía pagan impuestos escolares. Esto lleva a la discusión inevitable sobre la provisión eficiente de bienes públicos.
