GIBRALTAR AND BREXIT
Authors: Pushkareva V.V.
Published: December 2020

The withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union with its overseas possessions returned to the political agenda the territorial dispute between Madrid and London over the Gibraltar semi-enclave. The opposite points of view have collided in the context of Brexit: the UK fundamentally defends its sovereignty over Gibraltar, Spain strives to regain the lost territory, the Gibraltarians want to maintain association with the Kingdom and not break with the European Union, the European Union is not eager to grant Gibraltar a special status, but at the same time is interested in maintaining a preferential financial zone in the South of the Iberian Peninsula. Separate issues of relations between the UK and Spain on the situation of Gibraltar for the transition period were agreed, they are set out in the “4 Memoranda”. The further fate of the territory depends on the UK's deal with the EU. The contracting parties guarantee that the interests of both Spain and Gibraltar are taken into account. Possible options: holding a referendum on the independence of Gibraltar; gaining control of Spain over the strategic objects of Gibraltar as a result of the deal; Gibraltar remains under the sovereignty of the United Kingdom and continues to cooperate with the EU; dual Spanish-British sovereignty will be established over Gibraltar; at the end of Brexit Gibraltar will not cooperate with the EU. But each of the proposed solutions requires certain concessions from the disputing parties. They are not ready to compromise yet. The authorities of Gibraltar, however, are aware that without cooperation with the UK, Spain and the European Union, their further successful state and development is impossible. More favorable conditions, in our opinion, for the Gibraltarians will arise with the accession to the Schengen area and the Customs Union.

Authors: Siebyła Kamil , Skublewska-Paszkowska Maria
Published: December 2020

There are various methods for creating web applications. Each of these methods has different levels of performance. This factor is measurable at every level of the application. The performance of the frontend layer depends on the response time from individual endpoint of the used API (Application Programming Interface). The way the data access will be programmed at a specific endpoint, therefore, determines the performance of the entire application. There are many programming methods that are often time-consuming to implement. This article presents a comparison of the available methods of handling the persistence layer in relation to the efficiency of their implementation.

Authors: Abdulrauph Olarenwaju Babatunde , Harrison Igboeli Uchenna
Published: December 2020

COVID-19 has stamped an indelible mark  in the history of humanity as one of the recorded deadly virus that has wiped out millions of lives on planet earth many whose exact cause of death cannot be account for due to lack of knowledge. It has become a household name in every nook and cranny from developed to the underdeveloped nations of the world. Most of the prominent signs of COVID-19 like fever, cough, difficulty in breathing and accessional muscle pain can also resemble those of many other notable diseases thereby making it highly necessary to undergo a diagnostic test to be able to categorically identify COVID-19 patients. The use of medical diagnostic tests can also help determine patients who have recovered from COVID-19. Various studies abound with researchers trying to predict and even forecast the level of damage and disruption of economic activities this may have brought to almost every nation of the world. This research attempts to find out the nature of the spread of the virus using Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The essence is to ascertain the exact model to use in forecasting the future occurrence of the pandemic especially at this stage where the second wave of the pandemic is in view. The study found that both linear and nonlinear predictions models can fit the trend of the virus in Nigeria with ARIMA producing results of over 97% on a 120-day period while ANN produced results of about 98.01% in some states. We conclude that future waves of the virus in addition to other epidemics of this nature can be predicted with high degree of accuracy with ARIMA or ANN.

Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of watermarking algorithms in terms of their use in marking medical images. The algorithms based on the Integer Wavelet Transform (IWT), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) were compared. The algorithms were implemented using the combinations: IWT, IWT-DCT, and IWT-SVD. As part of the research, the level of disturbances caused by embedding the watermark was checked using subjective and objective methods. The attack resistance of the watermarked images was tested and the steganographic capacity was measured. All algorithms are based on IWT, however, each has different advantages. The algorithm based on the IWT showed the highest capacity. The most resistant to attacks is IWT-SVD, and the lowest level of interference was obtained for the IWT-DCT algorithm.

Published: December 2020

Aims and objectives
To study the range of Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) disorders, management of PAS, maternal outcome in PAS and post-operative complications in patients managed either by conservative or non-conservative management.
Methodology
Patient were diagnosed antenatally by 2D grey scale USG (ultrasonography) as PAS 0, 1 ,2 and 3 along with colour doppler studies. The decision of conservative versus non conservative management was taken by MDT (multidisciplinary team) along with the patients and relatives and after written and informed consent and elective surgery was planned between 34-35 weeks of gestation.
Results
Total number of cases studied over the period of 1 year were 45. On 2D gray scale USG, PAS 0 was seen in 60% followed by PAS 3 in 17.77% and only 6.66% of PAS 2. According to weeks of gestation OH with IIAL (internal iliac ligation) was performed in 42.22 % and OH without IIAL was performed in 37.77% and 20% patients who were managed by conservative method, 6 of them needed peripartum hysterectomy. Massive transfusion protocol was activated in all the cases.
Conclusion
The highest risk of placenta accreta spectrum disorders are amongst women whose pregnancy is complicated by placenta previa and with a prior scar on the uterus, due to the abnormal placental implantation on the scar site. The management of PAS disorders should be at tertiary care centre along with multidisciplinary care team.
Prędkość jazdy pociągów na połączeniach torów równoległych z wykorzystaniem rozjazdów łukowych
Authors: Koc Władysław
Published: December 2020

W artykule opisano problem łączenia równoległych torów szlakowych położonych w łuku kołowym za pomocą rozjazdów łukowych. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na wyznaczenie możliwej do uzyskania prędkości jazdy pociągów. W przeprowadzonej analizie wykorzystano wybrane przypadki układów geometrycznych. Określono wartości promieni torów zwrotnych rozjazdów łukowych i wyznaczono odpowiednie prędkości jazdy pociągów. Wykorzystano przy tym zapis analityczny, który stwarza większe możliwości aplikacyjne w konkretnych zastosowaniach. Wykazano, że prędkość jazdy pociągów na połączeniach torów równoległych zależy od typu rozjazdu podstawowego poddanego łukowaniu (czyli przede wszystkim od promienia tego rozjazdu), drugim bardzo istotnym czynnikiem zaś jest wartość zastosowanej przechyłki toru. W każ-dym przypadku wyznaczona prędkość, wynikająca z promienia toru zwrotnego, jest mniejsza niż prędkość na torach szlakowych. Opisując ogólne zasady konstruowania połączeń torów równoległych w łuku kołowym z wykorzystaniem rozjazdów łukowych podkreślono, że w niektórych sytuacjach prędkość jazdy musi ulec dalszemu ograniczeniu na skutek konieczności połączenia końców torów zwrotnych za pomocą łuku kołowego. Słowa kluczowe: rozjazdy kolejowe, łukowanie rozjazdów, analiza prędkości, łączenie torów zwrotnych

Authors: Poliński Janusz
Published: December 2020

Wiedza o ograniczeniach skrajni, występujących na eksploatowanych liniach kolejowych, jest niezbędna do prowadzenia bezpiecznego ruchu kolejowego, określonego rozkładem jazdy pociągów. W artykule przedstawiono w historycznym ujęciu rozwój diagnostyki dotyczącej wykonywania pomiarów. Zaprezentowano również pierwsze konstrukcje pojazdów pomiarowych, dzięki którym systematycznie skracano czas diagnozowania linii kolejowych, w tym tuneli. Rozwój techniki i technologii umożliwiał opracowywanie nowych metod badawczych, które sukcesywnie wdrażano dzięki modernizacji pojazdów diagnostycznych. Takie działania wpływały jednocześnie na jakość pomiarów, umożliwiały wykonywanie pomiarów przy coraz większej prędkości jazdy, a także automatyczne tworzenie bazy danych o ograniczeniach skrajni, występujących na sieci DB AG. Dane te są wykorzystywane m.in. do kodyfikacji linii kolejowych na potrzeby przewozów intermodalnych i przewozu przesyłek nadzwyczajnych.

RESHAPING HUMAN INTENTION ON HUMAN-MACHINE INTERACTION BY USING HOLOGRAMS
Authors: ERDOĞAN Kemal , DURDU Akif , CEYLAN Rahime
Published: December 2020

Decision making could be critically important for people in some situations. People have intentions to choose a side if it is time to make decision. These intentions are strongly related to the knowledge and experience. But sometimes outer effects could reshape their intentions easily. In this paper, an experimental work is studied for Human-Machine Interaction in which if holograms could change or affect the human intention. And also the question which asks whether people trust on a hologram agent while making decision or not is researched. To study this research, a memory game application is developed and this application is run on Microsoft Hololens device. Hololens is used to maintain the Augmented Reality (AR) environment with holograms. An algorithm with a Finite State Machines (FSM) is developed to manage the response of hologram agent while giving hint to the confused users. The accuracy of the hints changes nonlinearly. 3 different game stages are trained on users to see how they are affected by both virtual and real world noises. According to the results, intention of majority of users was affected by the hologram while making the decisions. Also it is observed that some users who were concentrated too much to memorize the order of objects did not realize the hologram, and some few could not understand the actions of hologram.

Authors: Vorobyev Alexey N. , Shchelkunova Inessa G. , Levin Dmitrii V. , Lukyanec Oleg B. , Shaybak Alexandr A. , Yakovlev Alexey A.
Published: December 2020

Introduction. The frequency of post-traumatic hydrocephalus is 3.9%. The incidence of post-traumatic defects of the skull is 10.46 per 100,000 per year. Overdrain syndrome occurs in 1012% of cases in patients with long-term ventricular shunting. The presence of a cranial defect causes a violation of blood flow and cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in the area of the defect, a displacement of brain structures under the influence of gravity and atmospheric pressure, which can cause a deterioration in the patients condition and a significant slowdown in recovery after a severe head injury. Both craniotomy syndrome and excessive shunting can impede the verticalization and rehabilitation of patients with post-traumatic hydrocephalus and post-traumatic defects of the bones of the cranial vault.
Description of the clinical case. Clinical case demonstrates an example of a differential approach and an algorithm for deciding on surgical treatment in a patient with post-traumatic hydrocephalus and cranial bones defect in case of deterioration during attempts at verticalization in a complex of rehabilitation measures.
Conclusion. The clinical manifestations of trephine skull syndrome and syndrome of shunt overdrain in the patient after severe traumatic brain injury combines post-traumatic hydrocephalus, may be similar. And not always, as demonstrated in this clinical case, narrowed ventricles and the relationship of deterioration to verticalization should be interpreted as a syndrome of excessive drainage of the shunt system. The plastic surgery of the defect of the bones of the cranial vault performed in this case made it possible to improve the patients condition and regress symptoms.

Published: December 2020

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo determinar os gastos adicionais pagos por aluno em razão do processo de expansão das Instituições Federais de Ensino Superior (IFES) após a sua inserção no Programa de Apoio a Planos de Reestruturação e Expansão das Universidades Federais (REUNI). Embora seja um assunto contemporâneo, há poucos estudos sobre os resultados do programa, sobretudo no que diz respeito à despesa paga por aluno matriculado, talvez por se tratar de uma temática que diz respeito a uma política pública recente.Para apurar esse resultado, foram utilizados como base os dados oficiais do governo, extraídos do site Siga Brasil, e os dados do Censo da Educação Superior, do portal do Instituto Nacional de Estudos e PesquisasEducacionais Anísio Teixeira (INEP). A partir da regressão linear entre o valor pago e o número de matrícula, foi possível determinar o valor pago por aluno adicional. Usando os valores corrigidos, este montante atingiuR$36,6 mil por matrícula. Este número é menor que o montante gasto antes do início do programa, mas pode ser considerado elevado já que aparentemente não ocorreu economia de escala e de escopo.
A INSTITUCIONALIZAÇÃO DA ATIVIDADE DE AUDITORIA INTERNA NO PODER EXECUTIVO FEDERAL
Authors: Camara Marinho Leonardo Lins , De Almeida da Silva Junior Antônio Francisco
Published: December 2020

A atividade de auditoria interna exercida pela Secretaria Federal de Controle Interno (SFC), que exerce a função de órgão central do Sistema de Controle Interno do Poder Executivo Federal (Scipef), pode estar sujeita a uma baixa padronização e depender fortemente de iniciativas e da motivação pessoal de seus auditores. Considerando o papel fundamental exercido pelas auditorias internas no fortalecimento dos processos de governança das organizações, a presente pesquisa se propôs a investigar a função desse tipo de auditoria no âmbito do Executivo Federal brasileiro, analisando se o nível de capacidade em que se encontra indica a institucionalização e a aplicação uniforme de suas práticas. Diante disso, formulou-se a seguinte questão de pesquisa: o nível de capacidade da atividade de auditoria interna (AAI) exercida pelo Órgão Central do Sistema de Controle Interno do Poder Executivo Federal, a partir da aplicação do Internal Audit Capability Model for the Public Sector (IA-CM), indica a institucionalização e aplicação uniforme de suas práticas? Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza exploratória. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e de revisão documental. Os resultados indicam que a aplicação do Modelo permite a identificação de pontos de melhoria nos processos de auditoria interna atualmente desenvolvidos pela SFC. Ademais, verificou-se que a AAI exercida por esse Órgão não alcançou o nível de capacidade 2, ou seja, áreas de processos principais de auditoria interna previstas pelo Instituto dos Auditores Internos não são implementadas, ou são executadas, mas não estão institucionalizadas ou inseridas na cultura do Órgão.Palavras-chave: Auditoria interna governamental.

Published: December 2020

Este estudo objetiva analisar os níveis de transparência dos portais eletrônicos dos Estados brasileiros e das Comunidades Autônomas espanholas, com vistas a identificar diferenças e similaridades existentes no âmbito de um país desenvolvido e um país em desenvolvimento. Utiliza-se do Modelo para Avaliação da Transparência da Gestão Pública – ATGP – para analisar uma amostra composta por 43 portais de transparência. A coleta de dados ocorreu no 4º trimestre de 2015, por meio da visita aos portais e verificação do atendimento aos critérios de avaliação do modelo utilizado. Os resultados apontaram discrepâncias em relação aos dois países, argumenta-se que a existência de legislação sobre transparência não é fator que por si só torne determinado governo mais ou menos transparente, existe uma necessidade de internalização de cultura de transparência, que envolve tanto os agentes públicos responsáveis pela divulgação das informações, quanto a sociedade, que precisa se tornar um participante ativo no processo político.
Critérios de ponderação entre o direito de acesso a informações públicas e o direito à proteção de dados pessoais: lições a partir do modelo espanhol
Authors: Bento Leonardo Valles
Published: December 2020

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar o conflito ente o direito de acesso à informação pública e o direito à proteção de dados pessoais. O primeiro estabelece que toda informação mantida por órgãos públicos é, em regra, acessível, sendo o sigilo uma exceção. O segundo, por outro lado, determina que as informações relativas a pessoas identificadas ou identificáveis devem ser protegidas e seu tratamento e transmissão a terceiros somente se permite com o consentimento do seu titular ou em situações especiais legalmente previstas. Uma vez que não existe uma hierarquia entre direitos fundamentais, diante de um pedido de informação que contenha dados pessoais, a autoridade encarregada de decidi-lo deve avaliar, à luz das circunstâncias do caso concreto, qual dos direitos deve merecer a prevalência. De um modo geral, a técnica jurídica empregada nessa avaliação chama-se ponderação de direitos e consiste em um teste de dano e interesse público. Trata-se de sopesar o interesse público na transparência contra o interesse na proteção da privacidade e da autodeterminação informativa dos titulares dos dados. O artigo discorre sobre o conteúdo jurídico dos direitos em conflito e os critérios normalmente utilizados para otimizá-los, de forma que nenhum deles seja sacrificado além da medida estritamente necessária para a proteção do outro. Nesse sentido, a experiência do sistema jurídico espanhol revela-se particularmente instrutiva, ao definir critérios de ponderação entre direito de acesso e proteção de dados já na própria legislação, e ao estabelecer uma obrigação de coordenação entre as instituições encarregadas do controle, da promoção e da defesa de ambos os direitos. O artigo é resultado de uma pesquisa de pós-doutorado realizado junto à Universidade de Valência, apoiada pela Controladoria-Geral da União por meio de sua política de capacitação de servidores.

In line with his previous publications, Szeminski argues that the information from historic sources describing the 1780's in Peru suggest that there were at least 4 dimensions of the indigenous concept of social hierarchy. Those dimension relate to the concept of casts, land ownership, cultures (ethnic) and social classes. The article recounts and analyses the linguistic evidence from a vast number of historical accounts and primary sources dealing with the Tupac Amaru II revolution.

Authors: Ziółkowski Mariusz , Sadowski Robert
Published: December 2020

In the pre-Columbian Andes, as in any other pre-industrial culture, calendar systems, did have very important role but did not see much research before the 1970's. There are numerous difficulties in researching the subject that relate not only to the lack of source material but also to geographical, ethnical and social background. Many different ethnic groups lived in different parts of the Andean region. According to Ziółkowski and Sadowski these differences resulted in the existence of many calendric cycles. While studying the calendars it is important to understand the group that was using it. For example, despite the popularity of the lunar month among their people, the Inca elites used a solar calendar in their capital city.

The article contains an appendix consisting of a reconstruction of the cuzquean luni-solar calendar and its correlation with the Julian calendar for the years 1532-1550.
Ometéotl — concepción de la deidad suprema en el México prehispánico
Authors: Wierciński Andrzej
Published: December 2020

Abstract/description:

The article describes Ometéotl as the central symbol of the Mexican religion. The article follows an etymological analysis of the words "ome" - two and "teotl" – god. According to Wierciński this relates to a universally observed primary principle of dualism and dichotomies that constituted a reference point to ideologies of the early societies. This is followed by a discussion of different aspects of this deity. Analogies to different regions of the world like Egypt and China are described. In the end, Wierciński expresses his opinion that some of characteristics of Mesoamerican deities suggest a presence of tendency towards monotheism in the pre-Columbian period.

Hacia la codificación del asilo diplomático en el derecho internacional
Authors: Sosnowski Leszek
Published: December 2020

Diplomatic asylum is a kind of asylum that is granted on the ground belonging to a diplomatic mission. The Latin American countries have a number of legal regulations regarding this kind of asylum. According to Sosnowski not many other countries do have the institution of diplomatic asylum codified. The legal basis for such asylum was set by conventions in Havana (1928), Montevideo (1939) and Caracas (1954). The existence of such regulations can be related to the legal recognition of "urgent" cases of persecution. The above mentioned legal acts also describe who can qualify for such asylum.

Published: December 2020

Türkiye’de toplumdaki sosyo-ekonomik farklılıklar son dönemlerde özellikle İstanbul ilinde gittikçe yaygınlaşan konut siteleri üzerinden somutlaşmış ve mekân-sınıf ilişkisini görselleştirmiştir. Konut sahiplerinin sayısı on binleri bulan bu sitelerin yarattığı nüfus hareketliliği seçim sonuçlarını nasıl etkilemektedir? Kentsel alanlarda son yıllarda giderek artış gösteren kapalı konutların bulundukları bölgenin seçim sonuçlarına etkisini anlamayı amaçlayan bu çalışma, oy verme davranışlarına mekân-refah ilişkisi açısından değerlendirerek literatürdeki boşluğu doldurmaktadır. İstanbul Tuzla ilçesindeki kapalı konut sitelerini, oluşturdukları nüfus hareketliliğini ve seçim sonuçlarına yansımasını oy verme teorileri üzerinden inceleyen bu çalışma, belirli bir ekonomik düzeyi olan, belirli bir sosyal statüye sahip, bir arada yaşayan seçmen ile aynı coğrafi sınıflar içerisinde yaşayan ancak duvarın öteki tarafında bulunan seçmenin tercihinde büyük farklılıklar olduğunu, toplu konutların yapıldığı bölgenin 2018 genel ve 2019 yerel seçim sonuçlarına etkisi olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Site sonrasındaki seçimlerde AK Parti’nin oyları önemli oranda düşmüş, yine de kayan oyların belli bir bölümü Cumhur İttifakı içinde tutulmuştur. Türkiye ortalamasına göre site seçmenlerinden muhalefet bloğu Millet İttifakı’na giden oylarda önemli bir artış bulunmaktadır. Site sonrasındaki seçmen artışı değerlendirildiğinde merkez-sağ ve merkez-sol partilerin oylarında artış görülürken, yeni oylardan en fazla pay alan partinin İYİ Parti olması dikkat çekici.

The basin of Gran valley is considered as one of dry valleys in Aljazeera district that belongs to Hit municipality 180 km west Baghdad. Area unit was conformed from some measured quantitative properties. Geomorphological and morphometric properties was used to construct data base relied on topographical maps, satellite image and DEM. Basin topography was studied. These landforms were parted into topological, erosional, sedimentary and carstic origins forms. Furthermore, morphometric properties represented the relationships among factors, corrosion processes and terrestrial phenomena such as area, forms, topography and aquatic drain net. Moreover, longitudinal, cross- sections and natural factors were associated. Results revealed that area of basin was 91.41 km2 which its water flew in Euphrates. The basin was very meandering semi-oval shape. Its river levels were 4 with 121 courses that possessed overall length of 149.7 km.

In this study, silver-cobalt bimetallic hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized using green method from AgNO3 and CoCl2 metal precursors as well as the locally available root extract of Borassus aethiopum acting as the reducing agent. The formation of bimetallic nanoparticles was first noticed by a color change of the reaction mixture from light pink to light brown as the result of Surface Plasmon absorptions. The optical measurements using UV-Vis showed the maximum absorption wavelength at 420nm while the functional group identification using FT-IR revealed some replacements in the absorption of functional groups, disappearance, and appearance of some others in the spectra of the BMNPs relative to that of the root extract indicating that those involved in the bio-reduction process. In vitro antibacterial potency was investigated against five clinically isolated bacteria. The outcome of the result suggested that they inhibit the tested bacteria especially against Salmonella typhi, Bacillus subtilis and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Thus, it can be developed as a bio-control agent for the treatment of diseases caused by these bacterial pathogens.

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Cough is a symptom that is felt by all humans and it is important for the protection which maintains mucus secretion, foreign substances, and infections of the larynx, trachea and bronchi. Thepurpose of this study is to find out the PCF value in healthy middle adulthood and late adulthood and the factors that influence it.Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study involving 99 subjects. Subjects were patients in the clinic for medical rehabilitation of middle adulthood and late adulthood healthy respiration. Subjects whofulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were examined with spirometry to ensure healthy respiration and after that, the PCF examination was carried out with a peakflowmeter device and the correlation wasobserved with age, gender and, height.

Results: The PCF value in healthy middle adulthood is 190-540 L / minute (41-50 years 465 L / minute, ages 51-60 years 405 L / minute) and healthy late adulthood is 245-520 L / minute with median 352.5L / minute. Men have a greater PCF value than women, but at the age of 61 years and over there not significantly different. The higher age, the lower the PCF value obtained and there was a statisticallysignificant decrease in the PCF value at 61-70 years of age compared to 41-50 years of age. Subjects with high height have a tendency for a lar ger PCF value and height will af fect the PCF value.

Conclusion: Obtained PCF values in middle adulthood and late adulthood with healthy respiration and there is a relationship between sex, age and height factors for the PCF value.

Keywords: Age, height, Peak Cough Flow, peakflow meter, sex.
