The Swedish Platform for Sustainable Work inHorizon2020: in retrospect
Authors: Lagerlöf Elisabeth , Albin Maria
Published: March 2021

The nationwide Swedish advocacy platform “Sustainable work as a resource for health, innovation and growth” started in 2013 with the aims of i) identifying possible openings for the research area within Horizon 2020, ii) implementing a strategy to impact Horizon2020, and iii) to connect Swedish and European researchers.

 

The basis for this agenda was that although work and working conditions have a major influence on the health, wellbeing and prosperity, these aspects were lacking or extremely fragmented in Horizon2020. Since this is a strong research area in Sweden and seen as strategically important by the Social partners, it should be a Swedish priority for Horizon2020.  The initiative was funded by Vinnova, co-funded by the participating universities, and supported by the Social partners and other stakeholders.

 

The platform has extended the dialogue on the European research agenda within the Swedish research community, and gradually built a strategy to impact H2020. Over the years, our advocacy has also developed in interaction with the EU Agencies Eurofound and EU-OSHA, and with PEROSH. The focus has been on the pillars of Leadership and Societal Challenges (Horizon2020).

The impact on the early Calls in Horizon2020 was minor, while work and working life is much more visible in the later calls, and on the agenda in the drafts for Horizon Europe (FP9). The focus will now be on making the opportunities known to Swedish researchers, and on facilitating participation in applications.

Published: March 2021

This article introduces the importance of process during the investigation and the acquisition phases of logical/physical artifacts which may be required during the course of such professional engagement. The article then focuses on the necessity to have a robust supportive framework in a state of preparedness to facilitate the First Responders and CSIRT (Computer Security Incident Response Team) with the necessary underpin to support such investigative engagements – considering effective and pragmatic Policies, Case Management, operational Security Protocols (Run-Books) and all other necessary attributes to underpin a professional, prepared posture from which a team may effectively, and robustly engage an investigation/incident. To elaborate on the importance of such an approach, we outline a number of real-world cases where ineffective processes and controls were applied. Finally, we review the essential elements of securely managing case-related data, and the absolute need to apply security mechanisms such as Certified Standards of FIPS-140-2 encryption to secure sensitive case related assets to assure they are robustly protected at all stages of their life cycle when they are in physical transit, or when they are at rest, associated with a desk-bound PC. The end objective to the entire article is to stress an absolute need to apply process to, as far as is practicable, to achieve positive conclusions from any investigation or incident which has been engaged.

Authors: Salamh Fahad E.
Published: March 2021

The adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) devices is rapidly increasing with the advancement of network technology, these devices carry sensitive data that require adherence to minimum security practices. The adoption of smart devices to migrate homeowners from traditional homes to smart homes has been noticeable. These smart devices share value with and are of potential interest to digital forensic investigators, as well. Therefore, in this paper, we conduct comprehensive security and forensic analysis to contribute to both fields—targeting a security enhancement of the selected IoT devices and assisting the current IoT forensics approaches. Our work follows several techniques such as forensic analysis of identifiable information, including connected devices and sensor data. Furthermore, we perform security assessment exploring insecure communication protocols, plain text credentials, and sensitive information. This will include reverse engineering some binary files and manual analysis techniques. The analysis includes a data-set of home automation devices provided by the VTO labs: (1) the eufy floodlight camera, and (2) the Kasa smart light bulb. The main goal of the technical experiment in this research is to support the proposed model.
Data Security for the SME
Authors: Walker John William
Published: March 2021

Whilst much discussion takes place within the Cyber Security Industry, and at annual events, such as yearly Infosecurity show held in London, with emphasis on the corporate world of security, very little attention given to the often forgotten (ignored) smaller enterprise and millions (billions) of end-users who face the very same cyber-threats on an everyday basis. However, this imposition is further compounded by the fact that generally, most of those within the SME sector, and ordinary end-user individuals can be deficient when it comes to cyber-defences, with a much lower level of cybersecurity savvy skills, which by inference exposes a soft-belly of low hanging fruit, manifesting in a significant surface of attack open to abuse by cybercriminals. In the current age of insecurity, such exposures are particularly noteworthy as threats posed by the potential of encountering a Ransomware attack may be concluded to be significant. This paper looks to outline the threats of the current age of 2020 posed by Ransomware and focuses on how the overlooked SME and Individuals may secure their most precious data object, and their business with affordable, simplistic tools and practices.

Published: March 2021

Previous research has documented that cetaceans can discriminate between humans, but the process used to categorize humans still remains unclear. The goal of the present study was to replicate and extend previous work on the discrimination between familiar and unfamiliar humans by three species of cetaceans. The current study manipulated the familiarity and activity level of humans presented to 12 belugas (Delphinapterus leucas) housed between two facilities, five bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus), and six Pacific white-sided dolphins (Lagenorhynchus obliquidens) during free-swim conditions. Two measures of discrimination were coded from video recordings of each trial: lateralized visual processing and gaze duration. No clear lateralization effects emerged at the species level, primarily due to extensive individual variability. The results also indicated that activity level influenced gaze durations across species, and for some individuals, the interaction between human familiarity and activity level influenced gaze durations and eye preferences. Unexpectedly, bottlenose dolphins had longer gaze durations for familiar humans whereas belugas and Pacific white-sided dolphins had longer gaze durations for unfamiliar humans. All three groups displayed longer gaze durations for active humans as compared to neutral humans, and belugas and bottlenose dolphins had significantly longer gaze durations than Pacific white-sided dolphins. These results indicate that the cetaceans can discriminate between unfamiliar and familiar humans and preferred active humans. However, discrimination of humans via lateralized visual processing did not appear at the group level, but rather at the individual level which countered previous research. This study is discussed within the contexts of attention and individual differences across animals of different species.

Authors:   Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung, Indonesia, Alijoyo F. Antonius
Published: March 2021

The research aims to understand the integrated risk management global adoption, especially ISO 31000 in Public Sector Organizations (PSOs). Through desk research and complemented with literature reviews taken from case studies in the G20 Countries, this study is expected to give a helicopter view about the global adoption speed of ISO 31000 as an international standard of risk management by PSOs across the world, and capture the sense of key issues and challenges related to the implementation. The findings contribute to the existing risk management implementation literature as well as a foresight for global risk leaders in PSOs to excel in their own respective risk management initiative either as a single initiative or as a part of their attempt to initiate change management. Since the sample has been purposively limited to G20 countries, consequently it does not reflect other critical factors of issues and challenges which have probably been experienced by non-G20 countries.

Authors:   Walden University, Minneapolis, MN, Burnham Tara
Published: March 2021

At the study site school for this research, the online curriculum in the current blended learning program was not promoting the desired student achievement outcomes. It was unknown if and how research-based best practices associated with blended learning were being implemented. This qualitative case study explored which elements of blended learning best practices were currently implemented in the online blended curriculum at one school to understand the factors enhancing or constraining student learning outcomes. A communities of inquiry framework was used to explore which blended learning best practices were currently implemented and which of those elements enhanced and constrained learning based on teacher and student perspectives. Data were collected using a whole population questionnaire, individual student/teacher interviews, and classroom observations. Three students and five teachers participated in the interviews and five classrooms were observed. Data were analyzed using a combination of open coding and a priori codes. Findings indicated that while teacher presence was evident in the blended learning curriculum, the focus on self-paced assignments limited the social and cognitive presence needed in blended learning best practices. Results were used to design a blended learning professional development course to help prepare teachers to implement missing elements of blended learning best practices. This research study can create social change by increasing teachers’ understanding of blended learning and providing student learning data to help educational leaders close the achievement gap at the local site. Increasing student success could lead to lower dropout rates and enhance students’ abilities to become more successful members of society.

Published: March 2021

The purpose of this study is to find out the relationship between website quality, participation, electronic word of mouth, and trust to purchase intention in hospitality industry, particularly in the hotel industry. As far as the authors knowledge, the study about booking intention directly from hotel website based on website quality, participation, e-wom, and trust, has never been conducted before. In addition, most authors conducted booking intention based on online travel agent application leaving alone the hotel website. Thus, the loyalty of customers moves to online travel agency instead of the hotel itself.  Quantitative method has been conducted in this research. There were 68 item statements distributed to 380 respondents and 357 valid responses were received from respondents who stayed at any hotels for the past 6 months and booked a room directly from the hotel website. Data were checked for normality, model fit, construct validity and reliability. By applying some modifications, data were adequate for hypothesis analysis. This research reveals that website quality influences participation and trust, while participation influences e-wom on the online website, leading to customer’s trust which finally lead to customer’s purchase intention. This study contributes to the development of body of knowledge regarding purchase intention to book a room in a hotel directly from the hotel website based on website quality, participation, electronic word of mouth, and trust. Some recommendations were added to give more options for managers to increase the purchase intention to book a room from the hotel website. This study also recommends to add culture, location based advertising, social media marketing, and search engine optimization to increase the purchase intention to book a room directly from hotel website. Limitation of this study is on the scope where only Greater Jakarta was included, whereas there are other major cities in Indonesia that provide tourist attractions.

Delirium em Doentes com Cancro em Contexto de Cuidados Paliativos
Authors: Delgado André , Borges João , Pimentel Adoindo , S. Almeida Susana
Published: March 2021

O delirium é uma síndrome neuropsiquiátrica complexa e multifatorial, altamente prevalente em todos os contextos de cuidados paliativos, nomeadamente em doentes com cancro. Pretende‑se com este artigo, com base na literatura atual, rever critérios de diagnóstico de delirium e suas características clínicas; instrumentos utilizados para avaliação; etiologia e patofisiologia; prevenção e estratégias terapêuticas nesta população específica. Foi revista a literatura publicada na base de dados online PubMed/Medline, entre 1987 e 2020, que abordasse o tratamento do delirium em contexto paliativo, através das palavras‑chave: delirium, cancer e palliative care. Embora a disfunção cerebral global associada ao delirium se manifeste por sintomas e sinais neurocognitivos ou neuropsiquiátricos, a característica fundamental desta síndrome é a perturbação da atenção. A etiologia do delirium é considerada multifatorial e o seu diagnóstico é pouco reconhecido pelos profissionais de saúde. Segundo a literatura, são necessárias várias estratégias de tratamento, tendo em conta os diversos fatores precipitantes, mecanismos patofisiológicos, subtipos e diferenças fenomenológicas encontrados no delirium. Apesar de largamente utilizados na prática clínica, não existe evidência suficiente para o uso habitual de antipsicóticos no tratamento do delirium em contexto paliativo. Do ponto de vista global, o objetivo deverá ser o tratamento de uma possível causa reversível e a otimização das estratégias não farmacológicas, sendo o uso de antipsicóticos reservado para os casos graves, de risco eminente, e refratários. Assim, a abordagem de tratamento do delirium em contexto de cuidados paliativos, deverá ter em conta os diversos subtipos de delirium, baseados nas diferentes etiologias, contextos e prognósticos, havendo necessidade de mais e melhores estudos, tanto do ponto de vista farmacológico como em estratégias combinadas, com clarificação de resultados que permitam aferir eficácia na resolução do quadro clínico e na qualidade de vida nesta população.

Authors: Rodrigues Márcia , Gomes Alexandre , Santos Emanuel , Figueiredo Zélia
Published: March 2021

Autism spectrum disorders encompass a wide range of clinical presentations, including obsessive‑compulsive symptoms. The comorbidity between these disorders is significant, and it has therapeutic and prognostic implications. While there are a few references on the approach of such comorbid presentations, the literature is even scarcer when this co‑occurrence is superimposed on individuals with intellectual disability. We present the case of a 43‑years‑old male patient with comorbid treatment refractory obsessive‑compulsive disorder, autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability, exhibiting subacute symptomatic recurrence including hetero‑aggressive outbursts and contamination obsessions. The phenomenological features and therapeutic strategies are discussed, highlighting the centrality of a patient‑centered and methodologically pluralistic approach. Symptomatic remission was achieved employing high end doses of fluvoxamine and haloperidol, alongside daily psychotherapy involving both symptom‑directed behavioral therapy and supportive psychodynamic techniques. An integrative approach may be the best option in the stabilization of complex cases as the one presented.
Technological Affordance-Based Gratifications and Their Impact on Media Selection
Authors: Yang Chun , Bailey Erica
Published: March 2021

This study explored whether technological affordances introduced new gratifications and whether those gratifications influenced media consumption. An online survey was conducted using MTurk to examine whether individuals perceived technological affordance-based gratifications for different devices (TV, laptops, tablets, and smartphones) and whether those gratifications affected individuals’ media consumption behaviors. Results suggested that technological features did cultivate a variety of new gratifications. We also found individuals’ device selection was significantly associated with affordance-based gratifications. Although perceived low in affordance-based gratifications, TVs were still generally preferred over other devices for media content consumption. These findings not only illustrated the power of communication technologies in cultivating individuals’ psychological needs, but also broadened the gratification research by identifying new gratifications and demonstrating that these gratifications could influence individuals’ media consumption. In addition, findings in this study offered insights for designing technological features that can better satisfy individuals’ psychological needs.

Published: March 2021

Energy crisis in particular, electricity in the isolated rural areas of Indonesia is a very crucial issue that needs to be resolve through  electrification . Compared to other options, pico hydro cross-flow turbine (CFT) is the better option to provides electrical power for the isolated rural areas. Studies to improve CFT performance can be undertaken analytically, numerically, experimentally, or a combination of those methods. However, the development of computer technology makes numerical simulation studies have become increasingly frequent. This paper describes the utilization of the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach in the pico hydro CFT method. This review has resulted that the recommended Renormalization Group (RNG) k-ε turbulence model for CFT CFD simulation because its absolute relative error is lower than standard k-ε and transitional Shear Stress Transport (SST). The absolute relative error for the RNG k-ε turbulence model of 3.08%, standard k-ε of 3.19%, and transitional SST of 3.10%. While for the unsteady approach, the six-degrees of freedom (6-DoF) are considered because more accurate than moving mesh. The absolute relative error for 6-DoF of 3.1% and moving mesh of 9.5%. Thus, based on the review, the RNG k-ε turbulence model and 6-DoF are proposed for the pico hydro CFT CFD study.

Authors: Alzukrah Muna A , Khalifa Yosof M
Published: March 2021

The prediction of solar radiation is very important tool in climatology, hydrology and energy applications, as it permits estimating solar data for locations where measurements are not available. In this paper, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is presented to predict the monthly global solar radiation on a horizontal surface in Libya. The real meteorological solar radiation data from 5 stations for the period of 1982 - 2009 with diffrent latitudes and longitudes were used in the current study. The data set is divided into two subsets; the fist is used for training and the latter is used for testing the model. (ANFIS) combines fuzzy logic and neural network techniques that are used in order to gain more effiency. The statistical performance parameters such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and the coeffient of effiency (E) were calculated to check the adequacy of the model. On the basis of coeffient of effiency, as well as the scatter diagrams and the error modes, the predicted results indicate that the neuro-fuzzy model gives reasonable results: accuracy of about 92% - 96% and the RMSE ranges between 0.22 - 0.35 kW.hr/m2/day

Published: March 2021

Humans are interpretive beings; a creature that is always seeking meaning and understanding reality outside of himself. The process of understanding and understanding continues and is productive as long as humans are and exist in this life. As long as there is an effort to interpret and understand, hermeneutics play a role. This paper tries to see hermeneutic understanding as a means of criticizing the absoluteness and dominance of meaning and understanding from the perspective of Derrida Deconstruction. Hermeneutics in the perspective of deconstruction provides important space for readers and their context in constructing meaning. The various meanings and understandings are appreciated as a necessity of a process of reading texts. Through Derrida's glasses, deconstruction becomes a reflective tool to open new awareness and new possibilities, which may have been missed in the effort to understand

Body condition score is very critical during breeding, lambing and lactation, the current study was conducted to assess the repeatability and reproducibility of body condition score inYankasa sheep in some selected Local Government Areas of Kano State, Nigeria; Bebeji (BBJ), Dawakin Kudu (DKD), Wudil (WDL), Shanono (SNN), and Dambatta (DBT). Multistage sampling was adopted to select a total of 300 sheep comrison of 99 rams and 201 ewes. Body condition score was determined twice a day by two assessors using the standard procedure. The experiment was conducted using a cross factor design. Model III analysis of variance was carried out to determine the between sheep and inter and intra-assessor variations in the trait. The results shows a significant (P<0.01) effects of rams and ewes on the body condition score.It is concluded that repeatability and reproducibility of BCS were very high (0.828-0.982 and 0.791-0.939 for repeatability and reproducibility, respectively). It is recommended that sheep farmers consider condition scores in the selection and routinely assess their animals' nutritional status.

 

 

Le score de l'état corporel est très critique pendant la reproduction, l'agnelage et la lactation, la présente étude a été menée pour évaluer la répétabilité et la reproductibilité du score de l'état corporel chez les moutons de Yankasa dans certaines zones de gouvernement local sélectionnées de l'État de Kano, au Nigeria; Bebeji (BBJ), Dawakin Kudu (DKD), Wudil (WDL), Shanono (SNN) et Dambatta (DBT). Un échantillonnage à plusieurs degrés a été adopté pour sélectionner un total de 300 moutons de 99 béliers et 201 brebis. Le score de l'état corporel a été déterminé deux fois par jour par deux évaluateurs en utilisant la procédure standard. L'expérience a été menée en utilisant une conception à facteurs croisés. Une analyse de la variance du modèle III a été effectuée pour déterminer les variations entre les moutons et les variations inter et intra-évaluateur du caractère. Les résultats montrent un effet significatif (P <0.01) des béliers et des brebis sur le score de l'état corporel. Il est conclu que la répétabilité et la reproductibilité du BCS étaient très élevées (0.828-0.982 et 0.791- 0.939 pour la répétabilité et la reproductibilité, respectivement). Il est recommandé aux éleveurs de moutons de prendre en compte les scores de condition dans la sélection et d'évaluer régulièrement l'état nutritionnel de leurs animaux.

O artigo apresenta um panorama histórico da evolução das atividades de pesquisa agrícola no país, com especial atenção às articulações público-privadas, de modo a (re)ocupar espaços em mercados competitivos. A busca por complementaridade nas atividades desenvolvidas entre os setores público e privado pode ser fonte de ampliação da competitividade, via inovações em seu sentido mais amplo, para as atividades agrícolas e agroindustriais.
A volta do Estado: aprendendo com os BIC? O Estado de transformação: volta, renovação, ou redescoberta?
Authors: Weiss Linda
Published: March 2021

A crise financeira global expôs a fraqueza da teoria econômica dominante e de políticas desregulatórias, maculou o modelo de laissez-faire do capitalismo, e precipitou uma reavaliação generalizada do papel do estado no controle do mercado. Enquanto a experiência dos BICs que oferece um poderoso modelo de ativismo do estado que transcende o Consenso de Washington, está em boa companhia. Um exame das experiências do passado e do futuro do Nordeste da Ásia (NEA) e dos Estados Unidos contesta, por um lado, vários mitos relativos ao pretenso desaparecimento do estado desenvolvimentista, e por outro, a chegada de um estado neoliberal. Enquanto o NEA oferece um modelo bem estudado do avanço industrial (catch-up) orientado pelo estado, que o neoliberalismo teria relegado ao lixo da história, os Estados Unidos fornecem um modelo substituto de supremacia tecnológica patrocinado pelo estado, que poucos desejam reconhecer.
Os Bics e o Desenvolvimento Verde: como a China está forjando um novo modelo de desenvolvimento verde que o Brasil, a Índia e outros já estão copiando
Authors: Mathews John
Published: March 2021

Brasil, Índia e China (os BICs) estão orquestrando uma ‘Grande Convergência’ que vai de encontro aos dois últimos séculos da Grande Divergência que os separou do Ocidente. Nesse processo, os BICs estão tirando bilhões de pessoas da pobreza. Mas o modelo do capitalismo industrial que serviu tão bem ao Ocidente, e que mostrou ser um modelo também para os BICs, simplesmente não “se ajustará” para atender às aspirações de tantos. O modelo de industrialização que se apodera de recursos, e expande linhas de suprimento através de conquista armada, simplesmente não está disponível para os BICs, nem eles podem ter confiança em um modelo que os prende à dependência de combustível fóssil indefinidamente, mesmo que os suprimentos de petróleo e carvão cresçam e depois declinem, e as emissões de carbono se acumulem. Portanto, um novo modelo de capitalismo industrial tem de ser desenvolvido, e está sendo desenvolvido pela China em primeira instância, à medida que ela forja novos arranjos institucionais e novas estratégias de industrialização, baseadas em energias renováveis e tecnologias de baixa emissão de carbono; em iniciativas de economia circular; e em ecofinanças. Essas novas estratégias e instituições – na verdade, um novo modelo verde de capitalismo industrial – estão sendo forjadas enquanto a China também aumenta sua energia fóssil e demanda por suprimentos. Esse modelo verde de desenvolvimento, que envolve estabilidade, resiliência e segurança, oferecerá um atraente modelo para outros países, preferencialmente ao “engodo” do desacreditado Consenso de Washington – e em particular para o Brasil e a Índia, que já deram início a uma mudança com relação a uma estratégia de desenvolvimento verde. A grande pergunta não respondida, tanto para si próprios quanto para o mundo, é se eles irão sucumbir ao ‘lock-in de carbono’, como seus predecessores ocidentais.
Emerging and hybrid: the cases of turkish and brazilian market economies
Authors: Ozel Isik
Published: March 2021

This article examines the ways in which Turkish market economy has evolved into a hybrid form marked by illiberal characteristics. Exploring the dynamics of continuity and change in terms of institutional configurations, the article analyzes some of the major tensions between the old and new institutions in this emerging market economy which has attained remarkable levels of growth within the last decade even in the context of the ongoing global crisis. It draws comparisons between Turkey and Brazil regarding the emergence of hybrid varieties of capitalism in the transition from state-led development to market opening processes. The article asserts that compared to its Brazilian counterpart, the Turkish market economy is closer to patrimonial and statist market economies, rather than the liberal ones, and almost constantly goes through a vacillation between institutionalization and de-institutionalization. .
Brasil-China: um negócio da China ou para a China?
Authors: Buainain Antônio , Vieira Junior Pedro
Published: March 2021

O crescimento das relações comerciais entre Brasil e China nesta primeira década do Século XXI foi espetacular; configurou-se uma clara especialização assimétrica, na qual o Brasil exporta principalmente matérias primas agropecuárias e minerais e importa bens manufaturados de baixa e média intensidade tecnológica. O artigo sustenta que esta especialização não é, em si, ruim, pois um país da dimensão e com os recursos do Brasil deve explorar e aproveitar todas as oportunidades de geração de riqueza. Os chineses são compradores de soja, algodão, minério de ferro – produtos nos quais o Brasil é competitivo – e não de óleo de soja, têxteis e ferro. Estas exportações de cadeias produtivas importantes abrem oportunidades para a realização de bons negócios, da China, também para o Brasil, e não apenas para a China. A viabilidade destes negócios depende mais da política do que do mercado, mas só se concretizarão se a política não violentar o mercado.
