Modeling Catalyzed Reactions on Metal-Doped Amorphous Silicates: The Case of Niobium-Catalyzed Ethylene Epoxidation
Authors: Zhang Kaihua , Caricato Marco
Published: November 2022

Metal-doped amorphous silicates are promising materials for heterogeneous catalysis, be- cause they are easy to make and their properties can be tuned for specific reactions. However, the amorphous nature of the surface makes the characterization difficult, and improvements are based on a trial and error approach. Density functional theory simulations can in principle provide direct structure-property relations, but the sampling of the active site configuration space is not possible via brute force. In this contribution, we use the Nb-catalyzed epoxidation of ethylene as a test reaction to analyze various aspects of the modeling that need to be taken into account for simulations of effective reaction rates. We show that each site can host a variety of transition state structures that represent the same reaction event, but that can differ considerably in reaction barrier. Furthermore, many different sites need to be sampled. We then use machine learning to identify the most important descriptors of the bare active site that correlate directly with the energy barrier. Al- though our test set is too small for quantitative predictions of reaction rates, we discuss what the important features of a very active site are that can drive the kinetics in the real material.

El valor jurídico de la Agenda 2030 sobre Desarrollo Sostenible: ¿una nueva tendencia normativa?
Authors: Díaz-Galán Elena
Published: November 2022

La Agenda 2030 ha quedado recogida en instrumentos de alcance internacional que tienen su singularidad. La fuerza política de esta Agenda está fuera de toda duda. Sin embargo, conviene determinar su valor jurídico en función de los instrumentos que la acogen y del contenido que se le ha otorgado. Las relaciones entre la Agenda 2030 y el derecho internacional no son siempre pacíficas, puesto que conviene examinar los procedimientos de creación de normas internacionales a los que responde, la evolución normativa que ha experimentado y los destinatarios de las eventuales obligaciones que contiene. Con estos ingredientes, se realiza una aproximación jurídica al significado de la Agenda 2030 y, por ende, a su valor en el orden jurídico internacional. Lo relevante es determinar si esta Agenda, en función de las características que la definen, abre o, en su caso, consolida una nueva tendencia normativa en el derecho internacional.

Published: November 2022

High Schools of Technology or abbreviated as STT Humble and STT Berea, are two institutions that are under the Director General of Christian Guidance in monitoring and reporting but must be integrated with the Ministry of Education and Culture through a Neofeeder. So far, the existence of STT Humble in Bengkayang Regency and STT Berea in Ansang, Darit, Landak Regency has become the prima donna for undergraduate higher education for prospective Christian teachers and prospective ministers such as missionaries and pastors. However, in practice, the limitations of information technology-based services in both STTs make it very difficult to see the unavailability of IT personnel. For example, the need to coordinate with each other is not documented in meeting minutes until the existence of the Pddikti feeder application, which has turned into a Neofeeder through monthly updates and a SISTER service for BKD services for each lecturer. Through this community service, the implementation of digital-based meeting minutes for STT Humble, and an online cloud for neo feeder, to the management of VMware-based SISTERs for STT Berea were designed.

Published: November 2022

The study determined the influence of innate mathematical characteristics on the number sense competencies of junior high school students in a Philippine public school. The descriptive-correlational research design was used to accomplish the study involving a nonrandom sample of sixty 7th-grade students attending synchronous math sessions. Data obtained from the math-specific Learning Style and Self-Efficacy questionnaires and the modified Number Sense Test (NST) were analyzed and interpreted using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s Chi-Square, and Simple Linear Regression analysis. The research instruments and statistics were all validated and tested for reliability. The analysis revealed that the students are virtual learners, had no or slight self-efficacy, and their number sense competency level is poor. They encountered difficulty in all the components and domains of the NST. Moreover, the students’ mathematical self-efficacy is significantly related and may influence their number sense competency level. Building upon the learners’ self-efficacy to further their understanding and skills in number sense is necessary.

A New Efficiency Improvement of Ensemble Learning for Heart Failure Classification by Least Error Boosting
Authors: Sornsuwit Ployphan , Jundahuadong Phimkarnda , Pongsakornrungsilp Siwarit
Published: November 2022

Heart failure is a very common disease, often a silent threat. It's also costly to treat and detect. There is also a steadily higher incidence rate of the disease at present. Although researchers have developed classification algorithms. Cardiovascular disease data were used by various ensemble learning methods, but the classification efficiency was not high enough due to the cumulative error that can occur from any weak learner effect and the accuracy of the vote-predicted class label. The objective of this research is the development of a new algorithm that improves the efficiency of the classification of patients with heart failure. This paper proposes Least Error Boosting (LEBoosting), a new algorithm that improves adaboost.m1's performance for higher classification accuracy. The learning algorithm finds the lowest error among various weak learners to be used to identify the lowest possible errors to update distribution to create the best final hypothesis in classification. Our trial will use the heart failure clinical records dataset, which contains 13 features of cardiac patients. Performance metrics are measured through precision, recall, f-measure, accuracy, and the ROC curve. Results from the experiment found that the proposed method had high performance compared to naïve bayes, k-NN,and decision tree, and outperformed other ensembles including bagging, logitBoost, LPBoost, and adaboost.m1, with an accuracy of 98.89%, and classified the capabilities of patients who died accurately as well compared to decision tree and bagging, which were completely indistinguishable. The findings of this study found that LEBoosting was able to maximize error reductions in the weak learner's training process from any weak learner to maximize the effectiveness of cardiology classifiers and to provide theoretical guidance to develop a model for analysis and prediction of heart disease. The novelty of this research is to improve original ensemble learning by finding the weak learner with the lowest error in order to update the best distribution to the final hypothesis, which will give LEBoosting the highest classification efficiency. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2023-07-01-010 Full Text: PDF

FIGURE OF OTHER IN ACADEMIC DISCOURSE
Authors:   Moscow City University, Suleimanova Olga A. , Tivyaeva Irina V. ,   Moscow City University
Published: November 2022

The paper focuses on the semantic role of Other in academic discourse. Drawing on ideas expressed by M.M. Bakhtin and Yu.M. Lotman, the authors see Other as a key actor of written communication in the academic community and aim to describe the specifics of verbalizing Other’s presence in academic discourse as compared to fiction genres. The empirical basis of the study is constituted by a corpus of research papers written by Russian linguists and published over the period of 1991 through 2012 as part of the Logical Analysis of Language series edited by N.D. Arutyunova. In the initial stage of the research the corpus was used as a source of language data featuring contexts indicative of omnipresent Other. The second stage consisted in semantic analysis of language samples followed by cognitive interpretation and relied both on present-day linguistic theories and recent research in psychology. Results include a typology of Other in academic discourse and a description of relevant lexical and syntactic units systemically functioning as explicit and implicit markers of Other in Russian written academic communication. Addressing the figure of Other in academic discourse offers insights on the cognitive background of academic communication and brings to light key pragmatic intentions shaping interaction within the academic community

Los bajos niveles de logro en comprensión lectora en México constituyen una problemática añeja. Por ello, es necesario el desarrollo de investigaciones cuyos datos orienten las estrategias a emprender para atenderla. Un área de investigación relevante en tal sentido se enfoca en los profesores de lenguas en formación, quienes enseñarán la comprensión lectora. En este contexto es donde surge el presente estudio, el cual buscar explorar las teorías implícitas lectoras que tienen un grupo de estudiantes de nuevo ingreso de un programa de licenciatura en lenguas en una universidad estatal en el sureste mexicano. Se investigan posibles relaciones entre las teorías implícitas de los estudiantes con un conjunto de variables demográficas como el género, frecuencia lectora, condición socioeconómica autopercibida y dos variables relacionadas con la misma: tipo de escuela preparatoria y ubicación de esta. La hipótesis alternativa es que las teorías implícitas varían en función de esas variables. El estudio se llevó a cabo con 222 participantes, 148 mujeres y 74 varones. Para la recolección de datos se utilizó el cuestionario de Likert “Escala de Teorías Implícitas de la Comprensión Lectora”, ETICOLEC. Mediante pruebas no paramétricas, se encontró que las TIs Retórica, Crítica e Interpretativa muestran asociaciones con las variables estudiadas de manera tal que reproduce las desigualdades sociales, por lo que se hace necesario intervenir para modificar tales condiciones.
A militância bolsonarista em redes online:
Authors: DIBAI PRISCILLA , D’Almonte Edson
Published: November 2022

O artigo discute a interconexão de emoções na comunicação dos apoiadores de Bolsonaro, hospedados em uma comunidade digital na plataforma Telegram. Após dois anos de observação, sustentamos que os afetos, intensamente explorados neste estudo, produzem uma comunicação polarizada ancorada em blocos retóricos complementares e concomitantes de amor ao líder e ódio aos oponentes. Nesse sentido, propomos duas tipologias de culto à liderança: 1) Bolsonaro como maior que a democracia e 2) Bolsonaro como mais importante que os fatos. Defendemos que o bolsonarismo adota uma extensa e diversificada rede de inimigos além da esquerda. Sugerimos que a presença de afetos negativos não é o que torna o “bolsonarismo” potencialmente antidemocrático. O que afeta negativamente a democracia é como esses sentimentos constroem uma política de segregação e destituição do outro, promovendo a restrição democrática, não a expansão.

Trombosis Vena Dalam (TVD) adalah kondisi dimana terbentuk bekuan dalam vena sekunder / vena dalam oleh karena inflamasi /trauma dinding vena atau karena obstruksi vena sebagian. Penyebab utama trombosis vena belum jelas, tetapi ada tiga kelompok faktor pendukung yang dianggap berperan penting dalam pembentukannya yang dikenal sebagai TRIAS VIRCHOW yaitu abnormalitas aliran darah, dinding pembuluh darah dan komponen factor koagulasi. Standar baku emas untuk diagnosis TVD adalah venografi intarvena, di mana bahan kontras diinjeksikan pada vena kemudian difoto rontgen untuk melihat di mana terdapat obstruksi vena. Pemeriksaan ini invasif sehingga jarang dilakukan.Diagnosis yang didasarkan pada temuan fisik saja tidak dapt diandalkan, sedangkan untuk penatalaksanaan TVD secara optimal, perlu diagnosis yang obyektif. Guna mempermudah pendekatan diagnosis, digunakan sistem skoring untuk menentukan besarnya kemungkinan diagnosis klinik serta pemeriksaan laboratorium, Compression ultrasonography, dan venografi, yang dijadikan bukti diagnosis obyektif.

Finding an empty parking lot is a big challenge as it can take lots of time and resources. This paper describes the design and development of a prototype of a smart parking system for assisting the vehicle drivers who always experiencing problem in finding indoor parking lots. The objectives of the proposed system are to develop a IoT parking lot system utilizing ultrasonic sensor to detect the presence of a vehicle and to develop a mobile application to display the parking lot layout for assisting car drivers to locate an empty parking lot.For the controller unit, it consists of the Arduino UNO microcontroller which is programmed using JavaScript language. Arduino is used to control the sensor, build a connection with the firebase server and update any changes in the hardware to the firebase. This enables the ultrasonic transmitter and collects the sensing data to be passed to the data transmission and acquisition unit. Once the ultrasonic sensor detects a car, the signal is read and processed by the microcontroller before it is sent to the server to update the status of the parking availability. The accuracy of vehicle detection is 100% with a standard deviation for sensor A0 and sensor A1 are 0.5 and 0.32 respectively. The display result of the parking lot availability is automatically updated in the mobile phone application in real-time.

This paper explores the technology adoption of the local entrepreneurs and the intention to use the technology i.e., objectives and technology adoption behaviors. 150 local entrepreneurs located in Pattani province in Thailand voluntarily provided information. They were asked to fill in a set of questionnaires regarding the objectives, type, frequency, and time of adopted the technology. The data analytics techniques, including, hierarchical clustering, Epistemic Network Analysis (ENA) were used to explore the qualitative data. Clustering enabled to categorizethe entrepreneurs into groups based on the similarity of technology adoption objectives. ENA illustrated the connections of the studied elements and formed a structure of a network. The results suggested that currently, local entrepreneurs adopt the commonly use social media technology in order to reach out to the targeted customers. The duration of technology adoption was different between the two groups. This exploration suggested that the intention of using the technology and the technology adoption behaviorswere different among the local entrepreneurs who sell the different types of products. The main implication derived from this study are two twofold. That is, there are differences in terms of technology adoption between local entrepreneurs who sales necessary goods and unnecessary goods. Government and related sectors may use this insight in order to design the campaign or provide the necessary training on how to use technology effectively.

This paper examines the factors determining a positive Information Security Culture (ISC) concept and the influence of ISC towards ISP compliance intention (INT) between IT and non-IT professionals in Malaysian public universities. Partial least square structural equation modelling, using PLS MGA, is used to assess the measurement and structural models, and to compare the results between the two groups. Results indicate all factors have significant contribution towards ISC in both groups, with two out of seven ISC factors have significant differences. This study has revealed that although both groups have the same ISC factors, IT and non-IT professionals have significant difference in terms of believe that Top Management Commitment and Information Security Knowledge are required for implementing apositive ISC. In addition, there is a significant difference between these two groups in terms of the influence of ISC towards ISP compliance intention. ISC has less influence towards INT for Non-IT professionals compared to IT professionals within the same ISC. These empirical findings would benefit in formulating better security strategies by providing appropriate efforts for different groups of employees in the organizations. This study also provides a total cyber security solution for improving information security culture and employees’ compliance towards Information Security Policy.

Digital transformation is the integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into all business areas and affects industries throughout the world. Digital transformation strategies are entrusted to “digital talent”, individualswho are technically equipped and well-versed across domains. However, finding the right talent has proven to be a difficult task and unmanageable to some organizations. Not only there is a shortage of talent, digital economy requires a different set of skills from the current labour market has to offer. This paper aims to shed light into this issue through a systematic literature review. In addition, a reflection on Malaysia’s digital transformation strategies is presented. Results revealed that there is yet a standard definition for digital talent and its meaning varies across organizations and industries. Although generic descriptions are available, there is a lack of specific skill-set associated with digital talent. Main research directions include supporting digital transformation, talent cultivation, talent attraction, and shortage of talent. This paper contributes to the literature by presenting effortsto bridge the digital talent gap from three different perspectives: short-term, medium-term, and long-term measures. Malaysia has mapped its human capital development against the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals since 2016 and is in the right path with regards to its digital transformation strategies. Short-term and medium-term measures arebeing implemented through up-skilling and re-skilling programs whilst long-term measures are underway although the results of digital transformation across industries have yet to be studied extensively.

Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) exhibit extraordinary electronic properties that render it as an exciting candidate to be applied as the active channel of high-performance carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNTFETs). The electronic properties of SWCNTs have been demonstrated to be dependent on the tube intrinsic properties that includes structural defects, chirality and diameter. Structural tube defects can be affected by the synthesis method and therefore the latter should also affect the device performance. Hence, this paper aims to present the influence of SWCNTs source synthesis method towards the resulting CNTFET device characteristics. A total of four SWCNT samples were sourced from different synthesis methods in fabricating CNTFETs. The synthesis methods are arc-discharge and three different variation of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes, which are DIPS, HiPco and CoMoCAT, respectively. Prior to fabrication, the SWCNT samples were characterized via Raman spectroscopy to quantifythe tube defect levels of each sample, which are directly proportional to the G-peak to D-peak height ratio, G/D. Electrical characterization was carried out via 3-terminal field effect I-Vmeasurement to evaluate key device performance parameters such ason-off current ratio, ION/IOFF, transconductance, gm,subthreshold slope, Spand field effect mobility, μFE.Analysis shows that G/Daffects the IOFFmore significantly relative to ION, resulting in increasing ION/IOFF, and hence switching performance, when G/Dincreases. It is shown an increase of ~50% to the G/Dof the SWCNT source resulted in ~ 860% increase in μFE. Based on the correlation between the optical analysis and electrical measurement, weconclude that theSWCNT growth method cansignificantly affectthe CNTFET device performance.
