Authors: Indriani Indriani , Pradana Mahir
Published: June 2024

One of the key factors in creating competitive advantage is the company's innovation strategy. An effective innovation strategy can help companies identify new business opportunities, develop innovative products or services, and improve employee performance. In the current era of increasingly fierce competition and globalization, innovation is very important for business success and continuity. Companies that use a successful innovation approach can gain competitive advantage, improve operational efficiency, and meet changing market demands. In that context, this thesis aims to examine the influence of company innovation strategy (X1) and organizational culture (X2) on employee performance (Y) at a family corporate. This research uses a quantitative method using a questionnaire as a data collection instrument. Data obtained from 92 employee respondents at a family corporate were analyzed using multiple linear regression techniques to determine whether a dependent variable is influenced by one or more independent variables. The research results show that the significance value of the Innovation Strategy variable is 0.037, which is smaller than the significance level which is generally set at 0.05. This implies a partially significant influence between Innovation Strategy and Employee Performance. In other words, the Innovation Strategy variable makes a significant contribution to variations in Employee Performance. These findings provide a strong basis for concluding that organizations need to pay attention to and strengthen the implementation of Innovation Strategy as part of a broader management strategy. Therefore, an appropriate approach is needed in an effort to improve employee performance, so that all PT Rise Jaya employees can understand the innovation strategy and organizational culture so that they can be even better in the future.

Published: June 2024

The Cannizzaro reaction has emerged as a versatile synthetic tool for the construction of functionalized molecules. Dating back to the 19th century, this reaction, though initially used for the synthesis of an alcohol and acid functionality from aldehydes, has henceforth proven useful to generate diverse molecular entities using both intermolecular and intramolecular synthetic strategies. Immense applications in the synthesis of hydroxy acids and esters, heterocycles, fused carbocycles, natural products, and others with broad substrate scope have raised profound interest from methodological and synthetic standpoints. The ongoing development of reagents, solvents, and technologies for the Cannizzaro reaction reflects the broader trend in organic synthesis towards more sustainable and efficient practices. The focus of this review is to highlight some recent advances in synthetic strategies and applications of the Cannizzaro reaction towards the synthesis of potentially useful molecules.

Published: June 2024

This study examines the impact of board structure on corporate financial performance in Nigeria. It investigates the Diversity of boards of directors in Nigerian firms and analyses whether board structure has an impact on financial performance, as measured by return on equity (ROE) and return on capital employed (ROCE). Based on the extensive literature, four board characteristics (board Diversity, board size, board ownership and CEO duality) have been identified as possibly having an impact on corporate financial performance and these characteristics are set as the independent variables. The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression was used to estimate the relationship between corporate performance measures and the independent variables. Findings from the study show that there is strong positive association between board size and corporate financial performance. Evidence also exists that there is a positive association between outside directors sitting on the board and corporate financial performance. However, a negative association was observed between directors’ stockholding and firm financial performance measures. In addition, the study reveals a negative association between ROE and CEO duality, while a strong positive association was observed between ROCE and CEO duality. The study suggests that large board size should be encouraged and the Diversity of outside directors as members of the board should be sustained and improved upon to enhance corporate financial performance.
Towards Agricultural Development: A Study of the Americas Public School System in Bukidnon 1901-1940
Authors: Agad Jonah Pearl , Palattao Jamelyn
Published: June 2024

The resettlement of Bukidnon following its separation from the Misamis province in 1907 was formalized under the Special Provincial Governmental Act, also known as Act 1693. This transition sparked various resistance movements within the province, including the Tauidis outlaws and the Tungud movement, both formed to oppose America's resettlement campaign in Bukidnon. After its suppression by the constabulary the American administration introduced an education system aimed at pacifying the Bukidnon population while fostering economic self-sufficiency in the province. This paper aims to analyze and evaluate the role of the education system in Bukidnon as a crucial component of America's pacification and integration campaign in the province. It addresses key questions such as: How did the America introduce education in Bukidnon? What were the education policies implemented by America in the region? And what impact did education have on the economic and political integration of Bukidnon? The study uses an archival approach, relying on primary sources including the Reports of the Director of Education from 1906 to 1938, as well as the Annual Reports of the Philippine Commission, the Report of the Auditor of the Philippines, and the Annual Report of the Governor General of the Philippine Islands. These sources offer a descriptive and narrative account of education in Bukidnon within the broader context of America's campaign of pacification and integration. This research is significant as it rationalizes the impact of America's education on the agricultural systems and food production in the province. By examining the development of the education system, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the dynamics of colonial governance and its impact on local communities.

Published: June 2024

The adoption of the Primary Health Care Under One Roof (PHCUOR) initiative serves as a crucial approach to tackle the complex challenges encountered by primary healthcare systems worldwide. This paper explores the historical background, present difficulties, and possible remedies related to primary healthcare in Nigeria, with a particular emphasis on the PHCUOR model. By referencing important papers like the Alma Ata Declaration and current research, we highlight the importance of Primary Health Care (PHC) in public health systems. This emphasis how PHC helps to promote health equity and achieve universal health coverage. The PHCUOR model is a progressive approach to healthcare delivery that promotes the consolidation of different services under a single administrative entity in order to enhance the coordination and comprehensiveness of care. The effectiveness of the strategy in improving access, boosting coordination, and delivering cost-effective treatment is demonstrated by several case studies from Anambra and Lagos States. In order to fully harness the potential of PHCUOR (Primary Health Care Under One Roof) in Nigeria, it is crucial for policymakers, healthcare providers, and stakeholders to give utmost importance to the establishment of policy frameworks that are supportive, the development of infrastructure, the enhancement of capacity, and the implementation of sustainable finance mechanisms. Nigeria may enhance its primary healthcare system, enhance health outcomes, and promote health equity for all its residents by adopting these initiatives and proposals.

An Experimental Investigation on VSI-fed Induction Motor using Xilinx ZYNQ-7000 SoC Controller
Authors: Yadav Madd Santosh , Ramesh Bhasme Dr. Nitin
Published: June 2024

In medium voltage and high-power drive applications, pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques are widely used to achieve effective speed control of AC motors. In real-time, an industrial drive system requires reduced hardware complexity and low computation time. The reliability of the AC drive can be improved with the FPGA (field programmable gate array) hardware equipped with digital controllers. To improve the performance of AC drives, a new FPGA-based Wavect real-time prototype controller (Xilinx ZYNQ-7000 SoC) is used to verify the effectiveness of the controller. These advanced controllers are capable of reducing computation time and enhancing the drive performance in real-time applications. The comparative performance analysis is carried out for the most commonly used voltage source inverter (VSI)-based PWM techniques such as sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) and space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) for three-phase, two-level inverters. The comparative study shows the SVPWM technique utilizes DC bus voltage more effectively and produces less harmonic distortion in terms of higher output voltage, flexible control of output frequency, and reduced harmonic distortion at output voltage for motor control applications. The simulation and hardware results are verified and validated by using MATLAB/Simulink software and FPGA-based Wavect real-time controller respectively.
The Effect of Viscous Dissipation and Joule Heating on Poiseuille Flow of Hyperbolic Tangent Fluid
Authors: Tamara Shihab Alshareef
Published: June 2024

In this paper, we showed the computer solutions for the Flow of Poiseuille of (MHD) hyperbolic tangent impossible-to-compress fluid Amid a pair of parallel slabs that are sloped at an angle utilizing a uniformly porous medium. Heat transfer attempts and slip boundary conditions are taken into account. In the energy equation, radiation, joule heating, and viscous dissipation are also accounted for. It is presented in a cartesian coordinate system that supplies the model of the governing equations of the hyperbolic tangent fluid flow. The equations of velocity and Temperature are solved numerically by using "ND solver built". The effects of different factors such that Hartmann number, Darcy number, slip parameter, Grashof number, Brinkman number, radiation parameter and others on velocity and temperature profiles are explored and presented in the Mathematica program. It is noticed that the profiles of velocity and Temperature are an increasing function of Darcy number, slip parameter, Grashof number, inclination angle, pressure gradient, Brinkman number, radiation parameter, and index-power parameter while they are a decreasing function of Hartmann and Weissenberg numbers. The research intends to improve our understanding of the thermal behavior of hyperbolic tangent fluids in practical applications by studying the combined effects of viscous dissipation and Joule heating on the Poiseuille flow. The potential ramifications of this phenomenon extend to multiple domains, encompassing engineering, materials science, and fluid dynamics.

Authors: Fettar Leila  , Bekkouche Samia  , Kadja Mahfoud  , Lachi Mohammed
Published: June 2024

We present a numerical study of the transient two-dimensional solutal Marangoni convection which occurs at the interface of a two isothermal layers’ system made of two immiscible liquids. The solute is propionic acid and is transferred through the interface from the organic phase to the aqueous phase under gravity condition. The unsteady state of this interfacial convection problem is mathematically described by the Navier-Stokes and solute mass transfer equations in both phases. The Hele Shaw approximation was incorporated in these equations and the resulting equations were solved using the COMSOL Multiphysics software. The latter is based on the finite elements’ method. The results obtained are in good agreement with the experiments and suggest that the mass transfer rate is stronger when the acid diffusion and the instability occur together.

Authors: S. Carmen Jan Vincent
Published: June 2024

This study aimed to assess the implementation of COVID-19 health protocols by the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) at Manila City Jail and to determine the impact of the pandemic on Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs) and jail officers in terms of family, psychological, physical, and infrastructure factors. The study involved 50 PDLs and 50 jail officers, and used a quantitative research approach. The findings revealed that the BJMP had strictly implemented COVID-19 health protocols within the jail, such as mandatory mask-wearing, temperature checks, social distancing, and sanitization measures. However, the COVID-19 outbreak still significantly impacted the PDLs and jail officers. In terms of family, the pandemic caused high levels of fear for the safety of family members, affected family relationships, and limited visitation and communication. Psychologically, the respondents experienced high levels of worry about the virus spreading due to overcrowding, and feeling scared of potential COVID-19 symptoms. Regarding physical and infrastructure factors, the jail had insufficient hygiene supplies and poor environmental conditions that increased virus transmission. While there were substantial differences between PDLs and jail officers in their assessments of the pandemic's impact on family, no significant differences were found in their psychological and physical/infrastructure assessments. The study recommends that the BJMP continue implementing strict health protocols, provide peer support networks and counseling services to address mental health, and organize regular sanitization campaigns to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases within the jail. Overall, the findings highlight the significant challenges faced by PDLs and jail officers during the pandemic, underscoring the need for comprehensive strategies to protect the health and well-being of these vulnerable groups.

Published: June 2024

Long term intake of plant-based medicines without knowing their toxicities and mutagenic potentials is common globally. Therefore, current work is an extension of cancer patient survey at Nuclear Institute of Medicine and Radiotherapy (NIMRA), for long term utilization of medicinal plant. Genotoxic potential Amaltas fruit (AF) was tested by Cicer arietinum L. and Allium cepa L plant assay. Abnormality index (A.I.), types of abnormalities and oxidative damages were the major parameters of genotoxicity. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed statistically significant differences (LSD) at p≤ 0.05 for A.I. and oxidative damage in both assay plants, except negative control. Both A.I. and oxidative damages revealed incubation dependent increase. In both assay plant the major chromosomal aberration induced was fragmentation. AF induced polyploid cells, apoptotic cells and elongated cells only in Cicer arietinum L. assay. Oxidative damages in the form of nuclear membrane and cell membrane damage were observed in aberrant cells along with ghost cells. It is concluded that AF is capable to cause genotoxic effect incubation dependent manner. High rate of fragmented cells reflects its mutagenicity and carcinogenicity mediated oxidation of DNA and membranes in both assay plants. Induction of more ghost cells and less frequent apoptosis reflects activation of oncogene. Development of Pilus like projections in ghost cells depicts proliferation potential of defected cells. Prolonged utilization of AF was the cause of cancer in surveyed patients.  Allium cepa L. was more sensitive as assay plant to the genotoxin. It is recommended that AF must be used occasionally.

Published: June 2024

Zinnias originates from Mexico and has high demand in the floriculture market. The need to reduce reliance on chemical fertilizers has highlighted the importance of sustainable alternatives like organic manures. Compost application in horticulture is gaining attention as a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers, aiming to enhance soil health and plant growth. However, there is a limited understanding of its effects on the growth. This study investigates the effects of compost on the growth, flowering attributes, and vase life of Zinnia elegans to improve cultivation techniques and promote sustainable horticultural practices. The experiment used an RCBD with two factors. When they reached 3-5 true leaves, plantlets were transplanted into 12-inch pots with compost varying concentrations, including Control, 25%, 50%, and 100% with garden soil. Changing compost concentrations and zinnia varieties affected numerous factors strongly. Plant height, for instance, varied significantly, with Benary's Giant cultivar reaching the tallest (72.04 cm) under 50% compost, mirroring the stem diameter's peak at 1.01 cm with the same compost level. Compost levels and zinnia varieties also notably impacted leaf count, lateral branches, leaf area, flower count, and flower attributes like diameter and stalk length. The study also found that 50% of compost extended petal senescence survival. Compost and zinnia interaction affected the flower’s fresh weight and vase life. The interaction cultivar Benary,s Giant with 50% compost in garden soil was optimal for zinnia growth and flowering. This study will provide the basics for floriculture.

We present a statistical analysis of the local, ≈50–100 pc scale, Hα emission at the locations of recent (≤125 yr) supernovae (SNe) in nearby star-forming galaxies. Our sample consists of 32 SNe in 10 galaxies that are targets of the PHANGS-MUSE survey. We find that 41% (13/32) of these SNe occur coincident with a previously identified H ii region. For comparison, H ii regions cover 32% of the area within ±1 kpc of any recent SN. Contrasting this local covering fraction with the fraction of SNe coincident with H ii regions, we find a statistical excess of 7.6% ± 8.7% of all SNe to be associated with H ii regions. This increases to an excess of 19.2% ± 10.4% when considering only core-collapse SNe (CCSNe). These estimates appear to be in good agreement with qualitative results from new, higher-resolution Hubble Space Telescope Hα imaging, which also suggests many CCSNe detonate near but not in H ii regions. Our results appear consistent with the expectation that only a modest fraction of stars explode during the first ≲5 Myr of the life of a stellar population when Hα emission is expected to be bright. Of the H ii region associated SNe, 85% (11/13) also have associated detected CO (2–1) emission, indicating the presence of molecular gas. The SNe associated with H ii regions have typical extinctions of A

V
∼ 1 mag, consistent with a significant amount of pre-clearing of gas from the region before the SNe explode.
Integrative taxonomy of Dicellophilus Cook, 1896 (Chilopoda, Geophilomorpha, Mecistocephalidae) in Japan, with a description of a new species
Authors: Tsukamoto Sho , Eguchi Katsuyuki
Published: June 2024

The genus Dicellophilus Cook, 1896, is a peculiar genus from the point of view of distribution. Dicellophilus is distributed in three limited areas that are well separated from one another: central Europe (D. carniolensis), Honshu (D. pulcher), and the southwestern part of the USA (D. anomalus and D. limatus). In the present study, in a field survey conducted throughout Japan, specimens belonging to the genus Dicellophilus were collected from Tohoku to the Kansai region, Honshu. Morphological analysis, molecular phylogenetic analysis, and genetic distance among Dicellophilus in Japan and D. carniolensis revealed that specimens from Sendai-shi, Miyagi Pref., could be assigned to an undescribed species. This previously unrecognized species is herein described as D. praetermissussp. nov. The new species can be distinguished from D. carniolensis and D. limatus by the number of pairs of legs (43 pairs in D. carniolensis and 45 in D. limatus, but 41 in D. praetermissussp. nov.), from D. anomalus by the lack of a pair of setae on the posteromedian part of the clypeus and variable crenulation on the internal margin of the forcipular tarsungulum, and from D. pulcher based on the following combination of characteristics: both ends of the transverse suture not evidently convex forward; long rather than wide trochanteroprefemur; wide rather than long metasternite.

The Merdeka Belajar curriculum is the current curriculum developed by Indonesian Ministry of Education which should be implemented thoroughly in 2024. Project-based learning is identically engaged with this curriculum which offers many advantages to enrich the quality of education. This has been promoted and already implemented in several schools across the region in Indonesia, yet many teachers are still finding it was difficult to be applied. This research explores the project-based learning steps for preschool teachers in Bandung using community service program by Industrial Engineering lecturers in Indonesia. There were 42 participants from different kindergarten schools who joined in the PJBL workshop. With an active learning workshop delivery, a significant result has been achieved that it could increase their understanding of PJBL concept. “A Healthy House” project was taken as the example of the topic in the workshop. To check the participant’s understanding of the PjbL steps, the questionnaire was distributed two times, before and after the workshop ended. Using t test, the workshop of PJBL has significantly impacted the teachers. They were able to understand the principles of PjBL and the steps of the methods.
Co-education and the feminist perspective in centres of pedagogical renewal: A critical analysis
Authors: Abril Morales Paco , Castellsagué Alba
Published: June 2024

In the field of education, co-education has gained recognition as an approach that seeks to challenge gender stereotypes and promote egalitarian relationships. At the same time, the feminist perspective poses a profound critique of patriarchal structures and norms that perpetuate gender inequalities. The school institution has been represented in research from an ambivalent position: as a space for the reproduction of sexism and androcentrism, but also from the perspective of its transformative potential. This article proposes to analyse the intersection between co-education and the feminist perspective in the centres of pedagogical renewal, as these spaces question traditional educational models from a critical viewpoint that transcends the merely educational.This article is based on a case study that evaluates the extent to which seven centres of pedagogical renewal have integrated a co-educational and critical feminist perspective into their project. Based on participant observation, interviews and focus groups with teachers, families, students and management teams, it explores the social and political commitment of these schools to the promotion of gender equality, inclusion and diversity.
Generative artificial intelligence: Educational reflections from an analysis of scientific production
Authors: Dúo Terrón Pablo
Published: June 2024

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI-Gen) in education is a challenge for educational administrations due to the benefits and risks of its use. This research seeks to analyse the scientific production of AI-Gen in the educational field. The method used was a bibliometric analysis of descriptive and quantitative documents from the Web of Science database. The VOSviewer statistical programme was used to identify the keyword clusters and to create the network map. The results of this study ascertain that 2023 is the birth of AI-Gen research in education and has since produced a total of 178 papers, where Australia heads the ranking of countries with studies on this subject matter. The ChatGPT phenomenon materialises as a focus of study in the majority of cited research. The study includes seven keyword clusters, where the IA-Gen cluster which is related to terms such as challenges, risks and opportunities are highlighted. Following the discussion, the main conclusion of the study denotes that further research is required on the use of AI-Gen during the teaching-learning process in several educational stages to prevent plagiarism and to obtain a comprehensive understanding of this technology as an educational resource.
Comparison between key crop production and farmers' perspectives in Eastern Hungary: A regional study
Authors: Takács István , Bársony Róbert , Fenyvesi Adrien , Mazák Viktória Erzsébet
Published: June 2024

Agricultural production and technology are crucial in supplying agricultural commodities and ensuring food security. Farmers are pivotal in this process. However, there is a noticeable gap in research: While numerous researchers focus on the national perspective, there is a relative scarcity of research conducted at the regional level. This lack of regional-scale studies highlights the need for more localized research to understand and address the unique agricultural challenges and opportunities in specific areas. We aimed to analyze wheat and maize production in a county in Eastern Hungary. We also aimed to delve into farmers' perspectives regarding the agricultural sector and research. Key findings included the average maize, with a yield at 5,896.2 ± 1,624.2kg/hectare (2000–2020), which appeared to be superior to wheat, which had a mean yield of 4,135.7 kg/hectare with a standard deviation of 788.4. The Tukey test confirmed significant differences between wheat and maize in terms of harvested area, production, and yield, highlighting distinct performance variations of these crops in the region. Moreover, we identified a weak but significant correlation between the value of the golden crown and aspects such as cost-effective crop protection, reduced tillage costs, and increased production value and income. A similar weak significant relationship was found between farmers' age and research topics related to increasing sales revenue. We aimed to analyze wheat and maize production in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County in Eastern Hungary. We found that 58% of farmers did not maintain accurate records of production-related costs and income, which could have significant implications for revenue calculation and decision-making. The outcomes of this research are instrumental for decision-makers, providing insights that could guide the development and implementation of agricultural policies and practices at a regional scale.
Concatenación de complementos circunstanciales en el español. Evidencias para la relación entre análisis cualitativo y cuantitativo
Authors: Company Company Concepción
Published: June 2024

Este trabajo muestra cómo un diálogo entre los acercamientos cualitativo y cuantitativo del análisis lingüístico logra una mejor comprensión de cualquier fenómeno, tanto en perspectiva sincrónica como diacrónica. El trabajo pone en diálogo cinco aspectos teóricos de la lingüística general con datos sintácticos diacrónicos del español. El objetivo específico es analizar, en una diacronía amplia de los siglos XIII al XXI, un aspecto desatendido de la gramática de los complementos circunstanciales, a saber, su capacidad de concatenarse sin la mediación de una conjunción previa al circunstancial final, formando cadenas de dos, tres o más circunstanciales en una misma oración. El trabajo plantea que tal capacidad de concatenación es un rasgo definidor de los circunstanciales que diferencia a estos complementos de los argumentales. El análisis vincula la sintaxis y semántica diacrónicas de la concatenación con aspectos teóricos de coordinación, de estructura informativa y de procesamiento cognitivo.
Senarum civis inclitus
Authors: Solvi Daniele
Published: June 2024

Per la vasta risonanza della sua attività apostolica, Bernardino da Siena (m. 1444, can. 1450) è stato, in vita e post mortem, un vir illustris per antonomasia del sec. XV. Nell’ampio dossier agiografico che lo riguarda, il santo viene spesso ritratto per comparazione con altre figure celebri, stabilendo così una serie. Ciò avviene semplicemente elencando personaggi in qualche modo simili a lui all’interno della sua Vita, oppure inserendo quest’ultima entro una collezione di Vitae diverse. Lo studio prende in esame numerosi esempi di queste due modalità di costruzione letteraria, dalla metà del XV agli inizi del XVI sec., raggruppandoli in quattro tipologie fondamentali: il catalogo agiografico universale; il polittico della santità senese; l’albero genealogico francescano; la galleria umanistica degli uomini illustri.
