Authors: Melez Ruviaro Larissa , Christine Silva de Gregori Isabel
Published: April 2021

Desde o início dos tempos fala-se em propriedade intelectual, no entanto, com a promulgação do Acordo TRIPS implementou-se uma extensa evolução normativa internacional, a qual padronizou limites da tutela protetiva e regramentos minimos no que tange a propriedade intelectual. Por derradeiro, o presente trabalho busca analisar criticamente a importância dos intrumentos de propriedade intelectual e, nesse contexto, coube perquirir quais as (des)vantagens da aplicabilidade da licença compulsória, no que tange a proteção do direito humano à saúde ? Adota-se a teoria de base a sistêmico-complexa. A pesquisa desenvolve-se através do método de abordagem dialético. O procedimento empregado será a análise bibliográfica e documental. Ademais, o artigo foi divido em dois capítulos. O primeiro capítulo disciplinará sobre o perpassar histórico dos instrumentos de propriedade intelectual, uma análise sob a imbricação entre o sistema de patentes e a licença compulsória. E o segundo, e último, capítulo analisará as (des)vantagens dos instrumentos de propriedade intelectual face ao direito humano à saúde, um olhar a partir da acessibilidade populacional aos medicamentos. Conclui-se que, a concessão da carta patente protege e beneficia os investimentos em pesquisa científica, em contrapartida, prejudicia à população no momento em que ocasionam a progressão dos custos para aquisição dos medicamentos. Nessa vertente, a concessão de licencimento compulsório proporciona à sociedade a amplitude no acesso aos medicamentos, porém, colocando em discussão o desinteresse da indústria farmacêutica em investir e explorar novos produtos, caso não tenham o condão de auferir lucros.

OS REFLEXOS DA IMPUNIDADE DO CONTRABANDO E DESCAMINHO NOS DEMAIS CRIMES PRATICADOS NAS FRONTEIRAS DO MERCOSUL
Authors: Brasil Costa Valesca , De Azevedo Canci Chanauana
Published: April 2021

Este artigo objetiva demonstrar de que forma a fronteira consolidou-se ao longo dos anos como cenário para a prática de ilícitos, abordando os crimes de contrabando e descaminho e como a impunidade de tais delitos reflete em outras violações praticadas nas fronteiras do Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul). Desde seu descobrimento, a América Latina é seriamente prejudicada por práticas desse tipo, que só agravam seu quadro social, sendo imprescindível a adoção de ações que visem a repressão desses crimes para que essa prática seja combatida. A cooperação policial entre os Estados Membros do Mercosul também é uma abordagem deste estudo, que busca dinamizar a repressão às práticas ilícitas fronteiriças, propondo uma reflexão acerca da reforma dos crimes de contrabando e descaminho, e, na prática, se isso significou apenas penas mais severas ou se foi capaz de dirimir a insegurança jurídica.
VIOLENZA DOMESTICA E MALTRATTAMENTI IN FAMIGLIA: l’art. 572 del codice penale
Authors: Macri Francesco
Published: April 2021

In questa sede, si analizzerà la fattispecie dell'art. 572 c.p. da una prospettiva “integrata”, inquadrandola come parte di un apparato di tutela penale nei confronti della violenza sessuale, fisica e psicologica nei confronti delle donne. Si conclude che la figura criminosa summenzionata è reato abituale proprio ed ha il dolo generico come elemento soggettivo. Vi sono problemi di concorso (reale o apparente) di reati con quelli di lesioni personali (art. 582 e – per quelle gravi e gravissime – 583 c.p.), e di atti persecutori (art. 612-bis), con il quale si individuano controversie di rilievo. I livelli sanzionatori prevedibili indicano la possibilità, per gli autori, di beneficiare frequentemente della sospensione condizionale della pena, o dell'affidamento in prova ai servizi sociali. Ciò si traduce in un apparato di tutela penale non sempre perfettamente coerente e, soprattutto, efficace.

Published: April 2021

Sistemas elétricos de potência coletam grandes volumes de dados que podem fornecer informações valiosas sobre o consumo de energia. As empresas elétricas podem usar esses dados históricos de consumo para auxílio no processo de tomada de decisões no que diz respeito ao planejamento da produção de energia, principalmente pelo lado da demanda (consumo de energia esperado). Neste trabalho o problema de previsão de consumo de energia foi modelado como sendo univariado com um passo temporal à frente. Foram utilizados os algoritmos Naive (Persistente, Média e Mediana), SARIMA, MLP, CNN e LSTM; e foi desempenhada uma busca gulosa de seus hiperparâmetros com o objetivo de encontrar a melhor configuração associada a cada algoritmo. Além disso, para comparação e escolha do melhor algoritmo de previsão foi utilizado a métrica MAPE e o teste de hipótese de Deibold-Mariano modificado. Para a prova de conceito da proposta metodológica, foram usados dados de consumo de energia da região Nordeste do Brasil entre os anos de 2004 a 2019.

Transportation is the activity of moving an individual or group and tools or goods from one place to another. There are 3 types of transportation: land, water and air. Transportation by type is grouped into private transportation and public transportation. In Kapuas Hulu there are 6 Bus Terminals, one of which is the Type B Bus Terminal in Kedamin which is the highest type bus terminal in Kapuas Hulu. For the Type B Bus Terminal, the Kedamin Terminal has not met the requirements stipulated in government regulations, so it is necessary to redesign it to meet the standard for the Type B terminal. Bus terminals that look dirty are due to the unloading and loading activities that are not in place so that it disturbs the comfort of bus terminal visitors. Supporting facilities for bus management activities is inadequate. Insufficient arrival and departure waiting areas. Activities on a regular basis are disrupting the circulation of vehicles, therefore it is necessary to redesign the Kedamin Bus Terminal.

Event Prediction in Online Social Networks
Authors: Tan Leonard , Pham Thuan , Hang Kei Ho , Tan Seng Kok
Published: April 2021

Event prediction is a very important task in numerous applications of interest like fintech, medical, security, etc. However, event prediction is a highly complex task because it is challenging to classify, contains temporally changing themes of discussion and heavy topic drifts. In this research, we present a novel approach which leverages on the RFT framework developed in \cite{tan2020discovering}. This study addresses the challenge of accurately representing relational features in observed complex social communication behavior for the event prediction task; which recent graph learning methodologies are struggling with. The concept here, is to firstly learn the turbulent patterns of relational state transitions between actors preceeding an event and then secondly, to evolve these profiles temporally, in the event prediction process. The event prediction model which leverages on the RFT framework discovers, identifies and adaptively ranks relational turbulence as likelihood predictions of event occurrences. Extensive experiments on large-scale social datasets across important indicator tests for validation, show that the RFT framework performs comparably better by more than 10\% to HPM \cite{amodeo2011hybrid} and other state-of-the-art baselines in event prediction.

Biotechnology-Derived Chitosans with Non-Random Patterns of Acetylation Differ from Conventional Chitosans in Their Properties and Activities
Authors: Wattjes Jasper , Sreekumar Sruthi , Niehues Anna , Mengoni Tamara , Mendes Ana Carina Loureiro , Morris Ed , Goycoolea Francisco , Moerschbacher Bruno
Published: April 2021

Chitosans are versatile biopolymers with multiple biological activities and potential applications. They are linear copolymers of glucosamine and N-acetylglucosamine defined by their degree of polymerization (DP), fraction of acetylation (FA), and pattern of acetylation (PA). Technical chitosans produced chemically from chitin possess defined DP and FA but random PA, while enzymatically produced natural chitosans are likely to have non-random PA. This natural process has not been replicated using biotechnology because chitin de-N-acetylases do not efficiently deacetylate crystalline chitin. Here, we show that such enzymes can partially N-acetylate polyglucosamine in the presence of excess acetate, yielding chitosans with FA up to 0.7 and an enzyme-dependent non-random PA. The biotech chitosans differ from technical chitosans both in terms of physicochemical and nanoscale solution properties and biological activities. As with synthetic block co-polymers, controlling the distribution of building blocks within the biopolymer chain will open a new dimension of chitosan research and exploitation.

Discussion on Mean, Median, Mode and its Validity and Table Number
Authors: Cao Weiwen
Published: April 2021

The mean, median and mode are the statistical means often used in statistics to describe the trend of a set of numbers sets. However, the three kinds of data are not only different in definition, but also different in application. For the same set of numbers, there is no definite and strict standard whether the mean, median or mode should be used. What's more, using different data may even lead to diametrically opposite conclusions. Even if we finally choose some kind of data, to what extent can this kind of data describe the centralized trend of a group of numbers? Is there any statistical method that can describe the centralized trend of a group of numbers more objectively and fairly? This is not only a very interesting issue, but also an issue of great research value.
Enlightenment of the Talent Training Mode of Japan's Colleges and Universities to China's five-year Higher Vocational Education
Authors: Wu Jinxiu
Published: April 2021

Since Jimei navigation College of Fujian Province started five-year junior college education in 1984, five-year higher vocational education has become one of the important forms of Higher Vocational Education in China. In the 1960s, with the rapid development of Japan's economy, there was a shortage of technical personnel. In order to cultivate a large number of technical personnel in a short period of time, Japan's specialized colleges and universities recruited junior high school graduates, studied in school for five years, and obtained an associate's degree after graduation, which provided a large number of technical personnel for the development of Japan's basic industry manufacturing industry. By combing the development process of Japan's colleges and universities, this paper studies Japan's colleges and universities from the aspects of school running subjects, talent training objectives, training methods and evaluation methods. It can provide the basis and implementation methods for China to better promote the convergence of secondary and higher vocational education, strengthen the training of secondary and higher vocational education, and provide theoretical basis and practical experience for improving the quality of five-year higher vocational education.

Published: April 2021

This study measured the structural and organizational changes in the knowledge schema of human cognition in response to the learning achieved by 48 students enrolled in the second year of a psychology degree. Two studies were carried out based on the Chronometric Constructive Cognitive Learning Evaluation Model. This article deals only with the first one, which consisted of a conceptual definition task designed in line with the Natural Semantic Network technique. Participants defined ten target concepts with verbs, nouns, or adjectives (definers), and then weighed the grade of the semantic relationship between the definers and the target concepts. The data indicate that the initial knowledge structures had been modified towards the end of the course. The participants’ human cognition schema presented changes in terms of content, organization, and structure. This evidence supports the idea that the acquisition and transformation of the schemata learned in academic environments may be observed through cognitive science indicators.

This study evaluated the impact of a professional development program (PDP) on science lecturers' level of knowledge/understanding and the extent of use of modern technologies for improving their self-efficacy in teaching in the areas of students' engagement, instructional strategies, and classroom management, in some selected universities in Nigeria. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The sample was 269 lecturers. The researchers adapted the teacher sense of efficacy scale (TSES) developed by Tschannen-Moran and Hoy (2001) for the study. The TSES has two parts (1) and (2) that contained 12 questions each. It was a validated instrument, with overall reliability indices of 0.92 and 0.95 respectively determined using Cronbach’s Alpha. The data obtained were analyzed with mean, standard deviation, and paired sample t-test. The study found that the PDP improved the lecturers' understanding of modern technologies and self-efficacy in teaching (t (268) = 30.959, p = 0.000 ˂ 0.05). Also, the PDP improved the lecturers’ extent of utilisation of modern technologies and self-efficacy in teaching (t (268) = 28.510, p = .000 ˂ .05). The study also found that the lecturers’ understanding of modern technologies after the PDP was high, but their use of modern technologies in teaching was still low. The researchers recommended that science lecturers' participation in PDPs should be regular to improve their understanding and use of modern technologies in teaching for enhanced self-efficacy and sustainable science education in developing nations.

Integrating a Community Library into the Teaching and Learning Programme of Local Schools
Authors: Maepa M. Eddy , Mhinga Rhandzu
Published: April 2021

According to estimates by Statistics South Africa, only 33% of learners in the Limpopo Province (one of the nine Provinces in South Africa) have access to a functional school library or media centre. This has been regarded as one of the main factors which have contributed to the Province consistently producing one of the lowest pass rates in comparison to its counterparts. While there was enthusiasm amongst some teachers that the establishment of Seshego Community Library would bring some relief to educators starved of a functional library service in their schools, some teachers and learners were not as enthusiastic and receptive to the Community Library. This paper explores some of the barriers inherent in introducing a library to a community which was not previously exposed to, and accustomed to making use of its services, and making it an integral part of the teaching and learning programme. Issues of resistance to the community library’s outreach programme, largely emanating from lack of motivation and a low morale amongst some teachers and principals alike, as well as an erosion in the culture of teaching and learning, are explored. There is a need to break down the existing barriers to encourage teachers and learners to make use of the Community Library’s services and facilities to add value to their teaching and learning endeavours.
School Libraries in the Sultanate of Oman
Authors: Moore May E.
Published: April 2021

Since 1970 many public schools, public and private colleges and universities, and some public libraries, have been built in Oman. In all these schools there is a semblance of a library. An educational reform began in 1995 with the building of 107 new schools that emphasise a child-centred approach to education and feature English in Grade 1, a fully equipped Learning Resource Centre, and strong curricula in science, maths, and computer studies. Deriving the maximum educational and investment benefis from the LRCs, however, depends on developing educationally sound school libraries with adequately trained staff, information skills curriculum, materials, site space, program, and staff development.
Bridging the Digital Divide through Schools
Authors: Mutula Stephen M.
Published: April 2021

The Internet has become increasingly an important source of information for pupils in learning, entertainment, sharing and exchanging experiences with other peers, meeting with adults and learning about other cultures. The Internet is a major force in the lives of school children and is no doubt having a tremendous influence on their reading habits and information seeking behaviour. With increased Internet connectivity however, concerns are being raised about the widening imbalances of access to ICTs between north information haves and the information have nots countries. This imbalance known as the digital divide has implications in terms of equity access to quality education in an electronic age. In Africa there are limited programmes that address in particular how schools can be equipped to benefit from the digital age and at the same time be used as an important instrument to bridge the digital divide. The concept digital divide was coined to describe the imbalance in access to information and communication technologies by different communities of people between different countries of the world. This phenomenon is today known to exist within individual countries, cities and even communities. Today schools are being seen as one of the most salient infrastructure that can be used to bridge the digital divide in our midst. This paper looks at developments in Africa aimed at bridging the digital divide through schools.
Getting Past "Shsssh": Online Focus Groups as Empowering Professional Development for Teacher Librarians
Authors: Mardis Marcia A. , Hoffman Ellen S.
Published: April 2021

This methodological review reports how online focus groups not only benefit the qualitative researcher but also provide professional growth among participants. The authors suggest that for school librarians, who often have limited opportunities for tailored professional development, focus groups can rapidly build a community of practice that transcends the original purpose of the researcher, enhancing knowledge and empowering new actions within schools following the model of Denzin (1997). By providing interaction, self-reflection, and professional sharing, the online focus group is a potentially powerful tool to include educators who share a professional culture but would not easily be reached by in-person techniques, as well as a method through which researchers can foster meaningful beneficial opportunities for professional learning and empowerment.
Predictors For Success
Authors: Farmer Lesley S. J.
Published: April 2021

The current research examined the experiences of beginning teacher librarians (TL) and expert TLs to ascertain the factors that predict practitioner success. In the process, the study compares southern California TLs (and their academic preparation) with theexperiences of TLs in other representative countries (e.g., Australia, Brazil, Canada, European Union, South Africa, Hong Kong, and Singapore). Factors were identified that link to TL preparation, with the intent of determining: 1) at what point in the academic-practice continuum identified skills, knowledge, and dispositions should be addressed; 2) what pre-service and in-service activities optimized learning. The investigator also uncovered universal and culturally determined practices.
Study of the Integration of High School Library Specialities and Community Resources
Authors: Lin Temg-Wen
Published: April 2021

The interactive mechanisms of the senior and vocational high schools with one another as well as with the communities have been constructed recently in Taiwan. Every learning community as well as the high schools have worked together to advocate programs and activities such as online learning programs, backup programs for teacher resources, establishment of the instruction resource centers and seminars convened for teachers, etc. The cooperation and resource sharing between and among high schools can not only satisfy the requirements of education for the students within the communities, but also help achieve the goals of nature-oriented learning and development. In 2007, there are 45 learning communities in total, in which 484 high schools participate. The educational resources within each community support and meet the educational requirements of the local students so that the goal of constructing learning communities can be achieved. The construction of the cooperation mechanism to integrate resources among high schools will improve wide-scale educational quality and intensify the characteristic of each learning community.
