La contrainte de la violence : devoirs de vérité et de résistance chez Pierre de Ronsard
Authors: NDONG Sangoul
Published: July 2024

En temps de guerre, quand la furie des violences décime les combat-
tants et les civils, la règle tacite veut que l’écrivain transforme sa création
littéraire en langage-instrument destiné à agir sur les pensées et sur les
affects des acteurs de cette guerre pour restaurer l’ordre. C’est ce rôle de
sentinelle de la paix que Pierre de Ronsard a joué dans les Discours des
misères de ce temps. Le chef de file de la Pléiade est clairement contraint, à
partir de 1562, à inscrire sa poésie dans la dynamique d’une satire farouche
qui récuse le silence devant la guerre. Partant de l’idée qu’analyser un
discours littéraire sur la guerre c’est voir de quelles manières le sujet
engagé réussit, avec un matériel verbal, à provoquer des effets sur les
allocutaires, cette étude analyse les indices de l’impossible dégagement de
Ronsard, les stratégies discursives mises en œuvre dans les Discours ainsi
que les visées de la poésie testimoniale au temps des guerres de religion.
Absence, Loss, and the Ripple Effects of War
Authors: TELIBAN Cătălina-Diana
Published: July 2024

War has always been a central theme in literature as a whole, and
particularly in the case of trauma related literature, which focuses on
investigating the effects that trauma, and therefore war, have on the
psychology and development of individuals. In this article, I propose
two recent trauma novels of the Asian American literary tradition
(The Surrendered by Chang-Rae Lee and On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous
by Ocean Vuong), which I use as case studies in order to explore the
ripple effects of war (in particular loss, absence, and intergenerational
trauma) on the lives of two characters, June Han and Little Dog,
whose lives the novels depict from their childhood and into their
adulthood. In this context I analyze post-war life both following direct
exposure to war (June), and indirect exposure (Little Dog), uncovering
thus how the trauma produced by wars haunts an individual all
throughout their life, even after the danger of the war is seemingly
over, and how the suffering produced during the war mutates and de-
volves into different types of post-war suffering.
Breaking the O(n^2) Barrier: Novel Approaches to Time Complexity Analysis in Quick Sort
Authors: Kumar Pijush Kanti
Published: July 2024

The most common type of sorting algorithm used is quicksort. As the name suggests it is the one of the most fastest sorting algorithm used since the innovation of sorting. However, this sort has often been criticised for its worst-case time complexity that is O(n^2). Practically the quick sort tends to follow its average case and best-case scenarios most of the time. So practically the quick sort is the most efficient practical sorting algorithm. In this paper we will fine tune this algorithm and remove its worst-case time complexity of O(n^2) and make this the best sorting algorithm both theoretically and practically. Various techniques will be discussed from pivot fixing to randomisation and further using medians of medians.
PREDICTING UNDERNUTRITION RISK FACTORS USING MACHINE LEARNING TECHNIQUES IN NIGERIAN UNDER FIVE CHILDREN
Authors: Kawo Mohammed Ali , Idris Muhammad Nuruddeen , Haruna Kabiru , Kaita Firdausi Umar
Published: July 2024

Childhood undernutrition remains a critical global health challenge with far-reaching consequences. This study developed and compare predictive models for three key indicators of under-five child undernutrition in Nigeria: stunting, wasting, and underweight. By leveraging various machine learning (ML) algorithms, we identified the most significant socio-demographic determinants of these nutritional outcomes. The study utilizes data from the Nigerian Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS6) 2021, a comprehensive nationwide survey. Four ML algorithms were employed to predict the risk factors for the under-5 child nutritional status: k-nearest neighbors (KNN), random forest (RF), decision tree (DT), and logistic regression (LR). These models were evaluated and compared based on their predictive performance. The study encompasses households across Nigeria, providing a broad representation of the country's diverse population. Preliminary analysis reveals significant regional disparities in the prevalence of stunting, wasting, and underweight among Nigerian children. Among the four ML algorithms tested, the KNN model demonstrated superior predictive capability across all evaluation metrics, including accuracy (89.65%, 95.00%, 80.04%), precision (91.02%, 87.79%, 93.53), recall (99.98%, 100%, 100%), and F1-score (94.44%, 98.83%, 88.60%). This outperformance was consistent for all three undernutrition indicators. The KNN model, identified as the most effective predictor, highlighted several key determinants of childhood undernutrition. These factors varied somewhat across the three outcomes but commonly included: household wealth index, geopolitical zone, source of drinking water, child age, birth size, mother's education level, and residential area (urban/rural) among others. This study demonstrates the efficacy of machine learning approaches, particularly the KNN algorithm, in predicting and understanding the determinants of children undernutrition in Nigeria. The findings provide valuable insights for targeted interventions and policy formulation. These results can inform evidence-based decision-making and resource allocation in Nigeria's efforts to improve child nutrition and achieve related Sustainable Development Goals.

Authors: Soko Mercyline , Mataruse Innocent
Published: July 2024

Various studies have revealed that the prolonged and indefinite end time of the COVID-19 pandemic, coupled with mass restrictions on movement, social isolation, and loneliness among young people, leads to mental health challenges. This study explored the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of young people in Sally Mugabe Heights, Goromonzi, and developed appropriate intervention strategies. Contemporary literature suggests that the pandemic disrupted education, leisure, employment, and access to health services, resulting in depression, stress, and other mental health challenges. This study employed a qualitative approach utilizing a descriptive case study. A purposive sampling strategy was used to recruit twelve young persons aged 15 to 24 years. Focus group discussions and in-depth interviews were conducted, and thematic analysis was used to sift data. Several themes emerged from the data, primarily the disruption of social and economic life. Support systems were found to provide some assistance to young people, and it is critical for the government and various agencies to implement safety nets to assist youths socially and economically. Implications for the study are discussed.
The Entrepreneurial Drive of the Reformation Age Inherent Within the Poetic Ingenuity of Christ in Song: An Examination of its Impact to Culture, Work Ethic, Metaphors of Work and Value System of the 21st Century Protestantism.
Authors: Zulu Eldon
Published: July 2024

The study anchored on the quantitative research paradigm presents a study sample size of (N=300) respondents were given questionnaires were utilised to gather data amongst 10 churches in Zimbabwe that utilise Christ in Song in their worship pattern. However, precaution was exercised, so that the core-mandate of the Church which is about reaching out with the message of Jesus Christ without compromise like the reformist of old, through worship, discipleship, evangelism, mission and social at will not be lost in the pursuit of academic excellence. The study reveals, through regression analysis 0.00 that it is significant. The Coefficient table results reveal that knowledge on work ethic value is significant .000, finance and stewardship value is not significant at .729, Age and diversity not significant at .265 and Social responsibility not significant at .151. The knowledge “Beta value “is 0.261 which means that the relationship between knowledge work ethic and dependent value expansion of the reformation theology is inverse. The other three independent variables Finance “Beta value” is .020, Age and diversity “Beta value” is .051 and Social responsibility “Beta value” is .051. The study concludes that the SZC of the Seventh day Adventist denomination should promote the entrepreneurial drive membership drive to knowledge on work ethic and in the future also consider the other insignificant variables for future studies. The study recommends future empirical studies to demystify and unpack in more detail the effects of sociocultural issues on work ethic and cultural value system of different conferences and unions in the global church of the SDA denomination general conference.

AlertTrap: A Study on Object Detection in Remote Insect Trap Monitoring System Using on the Edge Deep Learning Platform
Authors: Le An , Pham Duy Anh , Thanh Dong , Vo Hien Bich
Published: July 2024

Fruit flies are one of the most harmful insect species to fruit yields. In AlertTrap, implementation of Single-Shot Multibox Detector (SSD) architecture with different state-of-the-art backbone feature extractors such as MobileNetV1 and MobileNetV2 appears to be potential solutions for the real-time detection problem. SSD-MobileNetV1 and SSD-MobileNetV2 perform well and result in AP at 0.5 of 0.957 and 1.0, respectively. You Only Look Once (YOLO) v4-tiny outperforms the SSD family with 1.0 in AP at 0.5; however, its throughput velocity is considerably slower, which shows SSD models are better candidates for real-time implementation. We also tested the models with synthetic test sets simulating expected environmental disturbances. The YOLOv4-tiny had better tolerance to these disturbances than the SSD models. The Raspberry Pi system successfully gathered environmental data and pest counts, sending them via email over 4 G. However, running the full YOLO version in real time on Raspberry Pi is not feasible, indicating the need for a lighter object detection algorithm for future research. Among model candidates, YOLOv4-tiny generally performs best, with SSD MobileNetV2 also comparable and sometimes better, especially in scenarios with synthetic disturbances. SSD models excel in processing time, enabling real-time, high-accuracy detection. TFLITE versions of SSD models also process faster than their inference graph on TPU hardware, suggesting real-time implementation on edge devices like the Google Coral Dev Board. The results demonstrate the feasibility of real-time implementation of the fruit fly detection models on edge devices with high performance. In addition, YOLOv4-tiny is shown to be the most probable candidate because YOLOv4-tiny demonstrates a robust testing performance toward citrus fruit fly detection. Nevertheless, SSD-MobileNetV2 will be the better model, considering the inference time.
Impact of Employee Grievance Management on Organizational Performance
Authors: Nyitse Gabriel Tivlumun , Zamani Yakachat
Published: July 2024

Purpose: This paper examined the impact of employees' grievance management on organizational performance. The paper derives from conceptual points of view in available literatures that there is a coefficient relationship between the variables: employees' grievances, and organizational performance; hence, effective management of employee grievance is essential for harmonious workplace relationship, team spirit, employees' loyalty and commitment, as well as improved organizational productivity and performance. In the face of this necessity, there is still a relative lack of, or poor employee grievance management in organizations thereby giving rise to negative organizational outcomes such as reduced productivity, absenteeism, violation of orders, indiscipline and reduced quality of work. The study thus aims to show how employees' grievances directly impact on performance.
Methodology: In doing this, the study is designed using secondary data, analyzed in line with content analysis model and developed on the theoretical foundation of Rahim and Bonoma’s grievance management model. The analysis is anchored on two research objectives and research questions, developed to test recurrent hypotheses.
Findings: From the findings, the study concludes that effective employee grievance management is vital for effective harmonious management-labour relationship which helps to enhance organizational performance.
Recommendations: It is recommended among others that grievances should be handled routinely through set-up structures designed exclusively for that purpose in order to drastically reduce employees' grievances in the workplace.

Colonialidad y género: Relaciones entre Zama (1956) de Antonio Di Benedetto y Zama (2017) de Lucrecia Martel
Authors: D’Alessandro Natalia
Published: July 2024

En este artículo pondré en diálogo la novela Zama de Antonio Di Benedetto con su reescritura cinematográfica: Zama de Lucrecia Martel. Como punto de partida, tomo un interrogante de Rita Segato que se relaciona íntimamente con ciertas políticas cinematográficas de la adaptación de Martel y que debate cuáles son las formas en las que el arte contemporáneo –y sus trabajos e intervenciones en torno al género– pueden desarticular la colonialidad del poder. Creo que Zama busca respuestas a estos interrogantes. Para indagar en ello, observaré un cambio fundamental en el pasaje de novela a film: Martel elimina la primera  persona, prescinde de Diego de Zama –varón heterosexual– como narrador protagonista. El fuerte “yo” de la novela deviene en el film en un colectivo de voces diverso y amplísimo: voces de mujeres, niños y niñas, indígenas, esclavos y esclavas. ¿Hacia qué conclusiones nos llevan estas políticas cinematográficas?
Conservación y Vulnerabilidad de un Ecosistema Desértico
Authors: Posada Karla , Arias-Vallejo Adriana M. , Villegas Olivar Elvia Oralia
Published: July 2024

Los ecosistemas y paisajes desérticos durante los procesos de urbanización, son propicios a ser explotados por ser considerados tierras áridas e infructíferas, resultando en su degradación. Para analizar estos problemas y plantear soluciones se utilizan los principios de la Ecología de Paisaje (EP), que permiten entender al territorio desde una perspectiva geográfica e integral. Estos principios permiten analizar el paisaje y determinar su estado de conservación y vulnerabilidad, así como prevenir que los asentamientos humanos se emplacen en zonas de riesgo. La metodología se aplica en San Felipe, México, localizado en el desierto de Sonora. Se realizó el análisis de Idoneidad Intrínseca del medio biofísico a través de los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG). Teniendo como resultado que las sierras son las zonas más aptas de conservación y con mayor grado de vulnerabilidad. Donde convergen los factores más representativos del medio biofísico y, son las zonas más frágiles por sus materiales y la presencia de fallas geológicas. Determinando que el uso de la EP como base de la planeación es recomendable, debido a que identifica y analiza los componentes y los fenómenos que causan las interrelaciones en el paisaje.

Las actividades antrópicas cubren el 2,76% del territorio de Aláquez. Las conclusiones enfatizan la necesidad de utilizar de manera efectiva herramientas de planificación territorial y el control adecuado para proteger al medio ambiente y a los ciudadanos del riesgo de desastres naturales.
La defensa del patrimonio en la ciudad neoliberal
Authors: Cremaschi Verónica , Esteves Matías
Published: July 2024

El presente artículo analiza la problemática del crecimiento urbano y las reacciones vecinales frente al impacto sobre el patrimonio local. La presión inmobiliaria y la aparente ausencia del Estado con políticas claras que regulen tal expansión, producen transformaciones aceleradas y depredatorias que impactan en la vida diaria de los habitantes. Esta situación desencadena una serie de reacciones por parte de las comunidades que se han transformado en actores relevantes y que acuden a los procesos de patrimonialización para preservar la calidad ambiental, el legado patrimonial y sus estilos de vida en lo material y lo simbólico. Para reflexionar sobre el tema, tomamos el caso de Chacras de Coria, distrito de Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, que ha crecido de forma acelerada y poco sustentable en las últimas décadas. Esto condujo a la movilización vecinal para solicitar una declaratoria de protección del centro histórico y su área de influencia como una estrategia para morigerar los cambios y presionar al Estado provincial para que tuviera mayor intervención en el territorio. Consideramos que el análisis particular de lo sucedido en el distrito colabora a comprender el complejo escenario contemporáneo cuando se tratan temas vinculados al patrimonio.
Gestión del suelo vacante.
Authors: Cortizo Daniela , Frediani Julieta
Published: July 2024

Las ciudades experimentan un acelerado crecimiento de sus superficies, en donde el suelo vacante se constituye como el soporte sobre el cual las urbes pueden expandirse. Se configuran así procesos de expansión urbana dispersa que generan ciudades cada vez más costosas y desarticuladas, en donde las periferias urbanas se configuran como espacios en donde se produce vivienda nueva, de tamaños reducidos, en loteos aislados del entorno urbano y sin infraestructura, y el mercado de suelo es protagonista en el desarrollo urbano. Frente a esta problemática, los gobiernos locales tienen distintas formas de accionar. En este contexto, el objetivo del presente trabajo es reflexionar acerca de la gestión del suelo vacante en La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina), a partir del análisis de la aplicación de instrumentos de intervención por parte del gobierno municipal, en el marco de los actuales procesos de expansión urbana dispersa y las grandes restricciones en el acceso al suelo urbano de calidad para la población. Para tal fin, los elementos de análisis surgen a partir de fuentes secundarias (documentos oficiales, artículos académicos sobre la temática de estudio, artículos periodísticos), entrevistas a informantes clave, y trabajos propios realizados previamente.

MANAGEMENT OF EXCELLENCE IN A COOPERATIVE OF URBAN TRANSPORT OPERATORS
Authors: Carlos Moura da Cunha Ivan
Published: July 2024

The urban mobility systems of municipalities are made up of various transport, passenger and freight services and subsystems. The mode of public passenger transport, the main one, in many cases, is operated by buses belonging to urban transport companies, and by the complementary service, operated by small vehicles. The great challenge of this format is to establish the corporate culture in the associations of operators of small vehicles, accustomed to an almost artisanal model, practically an extension of the informal or clandestine operation previously carried out. This challenge can be overcome through the actions of the Government, encouraging the formation of cooperatives, formed by these permittees. It must be considered that a cooperative has different specificities from a capital company. The management bodies of transport systems should encourage the assimilation of the management culture, more precisely the Management ® Excellence Model, which is desirable for cooperatives to have the necessary conditions to operate properly in transport systems. Hence, the general objective of this work is to provide the technical, economic, financial and structural conditions for cooperatives to have sustainability as an economic activity. The methodology used was based on an empirical, inductive and exploratory study, with the presentation of a strategic business management model. With this, it is intended to establish a management model to be followed by any entity that has delegation of operation by the Government, which, without a doubt, will constitute a great innovation in the institutional relationship with these individual operators

El ocaso del derecho privado
Authors: Ribeiro Gonçalo de Almeida , González Jácome Jorge
Published: July 2024

En la tradición
jurídica liberal, el desarrollo del derecho privado corrió paralelo a la teoría
y la filosofía del derecho. El ocaso del derecho privado muestra cómo se
construyó esa tradición a partir de la comprensión y la construcción de reglas,
teorías e instituciones de derecho privado. La historia —o el drama— que cuenta
este libro desemboca en la manera en que el derecho constitucional
contemporáneo ha contribuido a que el derecho privado clásico pierda cierta
importancia en la teorización del derecho, razón por la cual es de interés para
aquellos constitucionalistas que quieran entender cómo su área se convirtió en
la joya de la corona en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. También es de interés
para los abogados dedica-dos al derecho privado y para filósofos y teóricos del
derecho. Echando mano de herramientas historiográficas, este libro es una
historia intelectual del auge y la caída de un proyecto que podría llamarse

Published: July 2024

The oil and gas trading sector is inherently volatile, influenced by geopolitical events, market dynamics, and regulatory changes. Effective risk management is crucial for mitigating these uncertainties and ensuring operational stability and profitability. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of optimizing risk management in oil and gas trading, highlighting strategies, tools, and best practices to manage and mitigate risks. Risk management in oil and gas trading encompasses a broad spectrum of activities, including market risk, credit risk, operational risk, and compliance risk. To optimize risk management, firms must employ a multifaceted approach that integrates advanced analytics, robust risk assessment frameworks, and strategic decision-making processes. Key strategies include the use of financial instruments such as futures, options, and swaps to hedge against price volatility. These instruments enable traders to lock in prices and margins, thereby reducing exposure to market fluctuations. Advanced analytics and data-driven decision-making are essential components of effective risk management. By leveraging big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, traders can gain deeper insights into market trends, forecast price movements, and identify potential risks. Predictive analytics allows for proactive risk management, enabling firms to anticipate and respond to market changes swiftly. A comprehensive risk assessment framework is also critical. This involves regular monitoring and evaluation of risk exposure, stress testing, and scenario analysis. Such practices help identify vulnerabilities and ensure that risk mitigation measures are in place. Additionally, fostering a risk-aware culture within the organization is vital. This includes training and educating employees on risk management practices and encouraging transparent communication and reporting of risks. Compliance risk, driven by regulatory changes, is another significant aspect of risk management in oil and gas trading. Staying abreast of regulatory developments and ensuring compliance with international and local regulations is essential to avoid legal penalties and reputational damage. Implementing robust compliance programs and leveraging technology to monitor regulatory changes can help firms stay compliant. In conclusion, optimizing risk management in oil and gas trading requires a holistic approach that combines financial hedging, advanced analytics, comprehensive risk assessment, and compliance management. By adopting these strategies, firms can effectively mitigate risks, enhance decision-making, and achieve sustainable growth in a highly volatile industry.

Published: July 2024

This study is the Qualitative Research on the experience of vicarious trauma of crime victim counselors. This study was conducted on three crime victim counselors who have been active for more than 10 years according to the narrative inquiry method. According to the participants’ experiences and episodes, the study results were reconstructed in the aspects of: “accidentally begin,” “passionately immersed,” “get confused and dazed,” “standing at a deadlock,” “conflict just got experienced,” “pain now shared,” and “stepping into growth.” The discussion according to the research results is given as follows. First, the vicarious trauma experience of the crime-victim counselor was exhaustion in terms of physical, cognitive, emotional, and relational aspects. Second, the proxy trauma process of crime-victim counselors was shown to be similar to the adaptation and exhaustion process of counselors adapting to new areas of expertise. Third, overcoming vicarious trauma of crime-victim counselors has turned out to be an experience of enhancing their expertise and also of establishing identity as a crime-victim counselor by accepting the limitations of their intervention and strengthening the capabilities as a therapist. As this study is the one of the narrative inquiries that aims to inquire the fundamental meaning and nature of the vicarious trauma experience that most crime-victim counselors suffer from, so, the aim of this study is to comprehend the vicarious trauma experience of the crime-victim counselors who have experienced during their counseling.

This study is a case study of a middle-aged woman's sandbox therapy using Kohut's self psychology. This study was conducted from December 17, 2013 to December 31, 2021, for a total of 47 sessions, about 8 years. This study aimed to analyze the life journey of a middle-aged woman in her early 50s to understand self, selfobject, and narcissistic needs, and to explore self-awareness, self-regulation, interpersonal relationships, and personal growth. To verify the effectiveness of the sandbox therapy, we took photos and records of each session, and analyzed the changes in the entire session by dividing them into psychological stages. The psychological change process was found to be relationship building, transformative internalization through optimal frustration experience, and cohesive self-construction. The relationship building process was represented by 'my happy home' in episode 1, 'family party' in episode 16, and 'grandma I want to be with' in episode 30; the transformational internalization process was represented by 'exciting amusement park' in episode 2, 'real me' in episode 4, and 'three trips' in episode 35; and the cohesive self-construction was represented by 'child playing in the ditch' in episode 3, 'changed me' in episode 24, and 'opera' in episode 46. Through the empathic relationship with the counselor, the participants projected and expressed their narcissistic needs in the sandbox without defending them, and gradually internalized them through the optimal frustration experience, and came to understand and accept themselves by confronting their frustrated narcissistic needs by viewing them objectively through the sandbox they created as a result of their frustrated needs, self-object creation, and childhood regression. From cohesive self-construction to self-reinforcement, self-recovery, and self-love expression, the participant experienced healthy self-objectification in the sandbox, gradually strengthening the self and changing self-regulation. The significance of the study is that through this process, the subjects were able to increase self-awareness, improve self-regulation, improve interpersonal relationships, understand and balance their own growth, recover and integrate into a healthy self in their late and mid-life journey, and experience a second maturity.

Published: July 2024

Cilj i svrha rada odnose se na saznavanje stavova i percepcija zaposlenika povezanih s procjenom radnih učinaka u njihovim organizacijama obzirom na pripadnost javnom ili privatnom sektoru te obzirom na veličinu organizacije. U okviru rada ciljevi istraživanja su postavljeni u pogledu saznavanja recentnih stavova povezanih s organizacijom i klasifikacijom radnih mjesta, učestalošću provedbe procjene radnih učinaka, interne komunikacije povezane s procjenom radnih učinaka, uključenošću zaposlenika u sustav upravljanja radnim učincima, kao i karakteristikama samog sustava te općenitim stavovima o procjeni radnih učinaka. U istraživanju je korišten anketni upitnik, a metoda uzorkovanja je metoda snježne grude. Za analizu je korištena deskriptivna statistika, t-testovi i ANOVA analiza. Potencijalno zanimljivi zaključci uočeni su u istraživanju, kao i korelacije između stavova povezanih s procjenom radnih učinaka od kojih je nekoliko i statistički značajno, te se rezultati mogu primijeniti na širu populaciju. Jedan od važnijih zaključaka je da je učinkoviti i jasno definirani sustav procjene i upravljanja radnim učincima međusobno povezan s operacijskim postupcima u pogledu redovite provedbu procjene, komunikacije u svezi procjene, svrhe procjene, te uključenosti zaposlenika, te da u hrvatskim poduzećima procjena nema samo formalni karakter. Razlike u stavovima zaposlenika između javnog i privatnog sektora, kao i kod različitih veličina organizacije nisu značajne ni velike, ali svejedno daju uvid u percepcije zaposlenika koje mogu biti korisne prilikom upravljanja sustavom procjene radnih učinaka i njegovom implementacijom u procese odlučivanja u poslovnim subjektima.
