Social Movement Theories: From Class Conflict to Post-Industrial Interpretations - A Search for A Muslim Perspective
Authors: Subhani Zulqernain Haider
Published: April 2024

Social movements have become an important topic within sociology in modern times. Even though it has not reached a consensus regarding its definition and typology, people define it as a collective action against a particular class to achieve a specific end. It has been articulated through various theories and perspectives. Sometimes, it is also compared with notions such as political parties, interest groups, civil society, and religious organisations. However, it has been presented both as a catalyst for social change and a result of social change and structure. The objective of this paper is to examine various social movement theories, especially concerning its relevance to social movement analysis of Muslim societies. This paper also investigates a Muslim perspective of social movement peculiar with Muslim societies, focussing on the Arab spring particularly the Egyptian case, to understand the scope and relevance of social movement theories in the Muslim world. The content analysis method are used to achieve the objectives. This paper finds that social movement is suitable as an analytical tool, not an empirical category, to understand Muslim societies. However, instead of any theory or paradigm, a multidisciplinary approach is more compatible to be used in the study of the Muslim world.

Published: April 2024

Метою дослідження є аналіз мовленнєвих особливостей, пов’язаних з відзеркаленням у україномовній свідомості пандемії коронавірусу.

Методи і методики дослідження. У якості дослідницької методології було використано метод вільних асоціацій, також були використані методи аналізу інформації, лінгвістичного опису, порівняння, інтерпретації, елементи кількісного підрахунку. У якості слів-стимулів були відібрані 10 понять та загальновживаних термінів, які пов’язані з описом пандемії Covid-19 і мали найвищу частоту зустрічальності в пошуковій системі Google – “коронавірус”, “Covid-19”, “пандемія”, “соціальна дистанція”, “самоізоляція”, “карантин”, “маска”, “вакцина”, “локдаун” та “ПЦР-тест”.

Результати. Проведення асоціативного експерименту показало, що на лексичному рівні більшість реакцій на стимули відносяться до нейтральної лексики (66.0%), близько 35.0% якої мають негативну конотацію; 32.0% складають синоніми стимулів чи пов’язані з ними поняття. В асоціативній поведінці респондентів можна виокремити ситуативний, функціональний (прагматичний) та дескриптивний (описовий) підходи, присутні оціночні та емоційні стратегії реагування. Серед частин мови превалює використання іменника (64.0%) та іменника з означенням (17.0%), що пов’язане з його здатністю давати назву предметам та явищам. Аналіз синтаксичного рівня показав, що 22.0% реакцій представлені словосполученнями і 5.0% – реченнями, здебільшого еліптичними. Більша ж частина реакцій представлена окремими словами.

Висновки. Кількісні дані, отримані в результаті проведення асоціативного експерименту методом вільних асоціацій, дають чітке уявлення про те, з якими соціальними смислами концепт “коронавірус” асоціюється в мовній свідомості українських студентів. В асоціативних полях переважають негативні стимули, пов'язані з небезпекою, невизначеністю, катастрофою та хворобою, а також відсутності довіри к необхідним медичним заходам. Реакції, пов’язані з освітньою предметною галуззю становлять лише близько 5.0% (дистанційне навчання), що свідче, що освіта не стала пріоритетом під час пандемії, а достатня велика кількість відмов від реагування може опосередковано свідчити про блокування або вкрай негативне ставлення до явищ, пов’язаних з цією хворобою, у мовній свідомості респондентів. Також вивчення мовної свідомості студентства з використанням методів психолінгвістики та лексико-семантичного аналізу під час пандемії коронавірусу формує як новий міждисциплінарний напрям у царині лінгвістичних досліджень соціопсихолінгвістичний, де вплив соціального та ситуативного контексту на мову може стати вирішальним, так створює умови для розвитку нового психолінгвістичного напряму – психолінгвістики екстремальних ситуацій.

Authors: Bezrodny M. , Prytula N. , Teslenko O. , Slizhevskyi K.
Published: April 2024

A heat pump scheme is proposed to ensure heat supply to the building, which during the heating period of the year uses the energy received in the summer by solar collectors located on this building and stored in the soil battery. A thermodynamic analysis of the efficiency of the heat pump heating system in combination with a vertical soil heat exchanger during the accumulation of solar radiation in the soil in the summer period and with the subsequent extraction of this heat from the soil in the heating period was carried out. The main operating parameters of the heat pump heating system (optimal speed of the heat carrier, minimum specific consumption of external energy, effective coefficient of transformation of the heat pump from the month of the heating period) were determined using balance equations at different values of the depth of the well and the diameter of the pipe. Graphical dependences of energy efficiency indicators on the determining parameters of the system were constructed and analyzed. The obtained ratios between the parameters can be used in calculating the optimal operating conditions of the vertical soil heat exchanger in heat pump systems of low-temperature heating in order to achieve its maximum energy efficiency.
FEATURES OF THE FUNCTIONING OF SMALL POWER SOLAR GENERATION IN THE IPS OF UKRAINE UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE GREEN TRANSFORMATION
Authors: Pustovij A. , Veremiichuk Y.
Published: April 2024

Within the framework of the transformation of the energy system in terms of ensuring the further development of small distributed generation from renewable energy sources, a new support model for low-power facilities is proposed, which will facilitate the commissioning of new generation entities. In the paper, research is conducted on the problem of small generation in Ukraine, which is faced by the power system, in the conditions of an increase in the share of distributed generation. An assessment of the impact of small solar power plants on the operation of the electrical network, including rooftop ones installed in households, was carried out. Typical schemes of connection of SPPs to the electrical network are considered and their influence on electrical equipment, elements of power supply systems and principles of operation are determined. It has been established that the integration of new renewable energy entities, including low-power SPPs, causes a number of technical problems that have an impact on the operational characteristics of the network, security of supply, and reliability. The main ways of solving the problems of losses and deviations of the voltage level in distribution networks, when connecting small SPPs, have been formed. In further research, the obtained results will be used to develop proposals for connecting low-power entities to the electric network and their formalization in the form of provisions of regulatory and technical documents.

Authors: Tarasiuk O. , Voloshyn S. , Rutylo M.
Published: April 2024

The presence of a centralized power supply with the appropriate infrastructure and an extensive distribution network with significant technological losses not only causes increased risks, but also calls into question the quality and reliability of the energy supply of remote objects. The use of small power plants based on renewable energy sources can solve the problem of power supply of transport infrastructure objects (public transport stops, pedestrian crossings, traffic control elements, etc.). However, the expediency of using one or another energy source requires simulation modeling of the parameters of these power supply systems.

The purpose of this study is to develop a simulation model of the autonomous energy supply system of road infrastructure objects and to check its functioning in real conditions. The article describes the structural simulation model and presents the characteristics of its components. The order of functioning of the constituent elements and the peculiarities of their interaction are given. Experimental modeling of the dependences of the output power of the photovoltaic module on the voltage maintained at its output was carried out, and the obtained results were summarized.

The developed model makes it possible to implement the mode of maintaining maximum performance thanks to the introduction of feedback to control the value of the input voltage of the converter, which is compared with the calculated (set) value of the voltage, calculated from the data of the actual load current and short-circuit current of the photovoltaic module for different values of light flux. The result of the comparison, with the appropriate sign, is sent to the proportional-integral regulator, the output control effect of which is the regulation of the output voltage of the converter and, related to it, the charging current of the battery, which, therefore, leads to a change in the input current and ensures the maintenance of the set voltage at solar cell outputs. Under this condition, its output current is directly proportional to the amount of solar radiation. It is also established that the selection of the minimum required capacity of the photovoltaic panel must be carried out taking into account the most unfavorable scenario regarding weather conditions and the season of the year in order to ensure the maximum charge of the battery.

Decomposing the causal relationship between entrepreneurship education and intentions
Authors: Abbasi Bilal A. , Gul Ambreen
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study is to decompose the causal relationship between entrepreneurship education (EE) and entrepreneurial intentions. The study segregates the “undifferentiated whole” of entrepreneurship education and finds out whether the components of entrepreneurship education (objectives of EE, content/curricula of EE, methodology of EE, and environment of the university) have a similar or different influence on entrepreneurial intentions as suggested by recent studies. Data was collected from 344 students who were enrolled in the final semester of BBA and MBA programs at 14 federally chartered public-sector universities in Islamabad, Pakistan through a closed-ended questionnaire. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze the data in SmartPLS software. The study results indicate that constituents of entrepreneurship education influence entrepreneurial intentions in a similar manner as an undifferentiated whole of entrepreneurship education. Hence, it clarifies the illusion that heterogeneity of the construct of entrepreneurship may contaminate the established entrepreneurship education-intention relationship. However, the magnitude of influence of each constituent varies.

Published: April 2024

Farmers are the life blood of agriculture. The role of farmers for the services done to agro diversity and their efforts to seed preservation, sufficiently justify their rights to seed. In the wake of World Trade Organization- Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (WTO-TRIPS) agreement on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection for all innovations including plants. Farmers’ traditional rights are compromised over breeders of new plant varieties. This paper aims to describe international plant protection systems under WTO-TRIPS and examines two international conventions on plant protection i.e., Seed treaty and Convention on Biological Diversity. This paper employs a doctrinal method to examine the rights of farmers in Pakistan by adoption of “Plant Breeders’ Rights Act”. It is revealed that the Act limits the traditional rights of farmers’ and have helped to gratify plant breeders; Pakistan despite signatory to seed treaty has ignored to protect rights of farming communities while, in compliance to WTO-TRIPS went on to a stricter model of IPR barring farmer’s right even to seed except saving and exchanging’. The study proposes some strategies to balance between the rights of farmers with that of breeders, thus, to achieve a better reform system for both growers’ and agro technologists.

Neuropsychological aspects of stress manifestation
Authors: Nazarovets Tetiana , Nastoiashcha Alona
Published: April 2024

Modern life, unfortunately, is not devoid of stressful situations. This article explores how stress affects various cognitive functions, making us more vulnerable. Memory, attention, decision-making, inhibition, and abstract thinking are just some aspects of the effects of stress. Studies show that prolonged or repeated stress can weaken the immune system, increasing inflammation and even destroying neurons in the hippocampus responsible for memory. Maturation of the frontal cortex, which is accompanied by an increase in gray matter volume and the number of synapses, can be disrupted by stress, leading to cognitive decline. Recent research on the impact of stressful situations on psychological and physical health is characterized by a wide range of methodological approaches and a variety of sources. Sapolsky R. highlights the impact of stress on memory-related processes, as well as on the formation of certain parts of the brain. In the work of D. Nakazawa, we get acquainted with neural development and the natural processes associated with this development. Thus, the latest research and publications in the field of stress psychology are an important contribution to our understanding of this complex problem and the development of practical recommendations for overcoming the negative effects of stress. Sleep is crucial for restoring energy and consolidating memory, but it also becomes a victim of stress. Lack of sleep and deterioration in its quality make us more vulnerable to the negative effects of stress. Children who have experienced stress risk losing even more neurons than their peers, as the natural neuronal pruning at puberty can be intensified. Chronic stress can lead to neurotic reactions, psychophysiological symptoms, and psychosomatic illnesses. This emphasizes the importance of nervous system rehabilitation and neuropsychological interventions.

The article specifies the essential attributes of strategic competencies, defines their role as an effective tool for the post-war recovery and transformation of domestic IT corporations. It is emphasized that the strategic competencies of the IT corporation are a derived component of corporate management. A set of strategic competencies of an IT corporation is considered important and in demand for a specific company with its unique corporate governance, and will not always be effective for another corporation. Therefore, each corporation should form its own set of strategic competencies. The expediency of increasing the flexibility of strategic competencies in IT corporations, and the dominant expansion of their strategic horizons of activity based on modern technologies in the context of the formation of new business values, which take into account the challenges of the martial law and the specifics of domestic IT corporations regarding the project-team profile of their functioning and behavioral models of interactions with contact audiences. In particular, it is stated that in the context of intensifying competitive struggle and strengthening of destructive transformational changes in the business environment, an urgent question arises regarding increasing the flexibility of strategic competencies in IT corporations. This problem is actualized also by the need to expand the range of alternative solutions regarding the choice of forms, means, mechanisms of response to the transformation of the economic environment. The flexibility of strategic competencies in the IT corporation is the ability of the corporation to successfully carry out its activities in the transformative conditions of the business environment with a large amplitude. The importance of expanding the existing level of flexibility and differentiation of strategic competences in IT corporations, determining expediency according to the criterion of functionality, implementing resource costs, reserving assets, accumulating financial reserves and working out organizational measures related to the support of adaptive flexible abilities and capabilities of the corporation are closely intertwined, first of all with the strengthening of the strategic forecasting ability regarding filtering and selection of the optimal alternative development trajectory and a harmonious variant of the configuration of the consumption of various resources.
THEORETICAL BASIS FOR STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS ENTERPRISES IN THE DIGITAL ECONOMY
Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Kyiv, Sazonova S. V.
Published: April 2024

The digital economy is based on the activities of telecommunication enterprises, which leads to profound changes in the construction of strategic management of enterprises today so that they can be managed in the future. Telecommunication enterprises need a new theoretical basis for building a modern model of strategic management, which will ensure: formation of a knowledge base, definition of a set of interrelated rules of digitalisation, use of innovative technologies, development of an expert system, implementation of a digital management system to achieve strategic goals in the long term. The article proves that in the context of the development of the digital economy, one of the effects of the strategic management system at an enterprise should be an increase in the level of formalisation of its processes. In turn, this will also ensure the process of digitalisation and the creation of procedures that will allow a telecommunications enterprise to achieve its goals in the best possible way. It is noted that the system of strategic management of telecommunications enterprises in the digital economy allows to form a model of strategic management based on the paradigm of digital strategy, and also includes the values and goals of the enterprise and social responsibility of business. The model of strategic management proposed in the article will help to stabilise the work of telecommunications enterprises in difficult times, introduce digital methods of strategic management, and use artificial intelligence to make and implement strategic management decisions. The theoretical basis of the digital strategy allows for a decomposition of the goals and functions of management subsystems. The decomposition itself is carried out on the principles of transparency and sufficiency, i.e. rational division of management types with their subsequent integration into a single system (composition) of strategic management at all levels of a telecommunications enterprise.
CONCEPTUAL BASIS OF MANAGEMENT OF ENTERPRISE ASSETS UNDER CONDITIONS OF UNCERTAINTY AND RISK
Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Kyiv, Artyomova A. Yu.
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the current problems of the development of the conceptual foundations of enterprise asset management in the conditions of modern challenges. Asset management is viewed by most organizations as a simple business operation, however, the modern era requires sophisticated methodologies to meet business needs in optimizing asset management. A review of international standards on asset management was conducted. British Standards have made a significant contribution by publishing their PAS 55 standard on asset management. In January 2014, the International Organization for Standardization released the ISO 55000 series of standards, which are mainly based on PAS 55. The purpose of the standardization was to unite organizations around the world under a common asset management system. The needs for the formation of asset management programs based on standardized definitions of the concept of "enterprise asset", types of assets, and in conditions of uncertainty were noted. The authors analyzed the problems of the forecasting paradigm, which is marked by huge uncertainty, and formed the factors for ensuring correct forecasts in the models. The primary goal of an effective asset management program is to ensure that assets maximize value for all stakeholders in the value chain throughout their lifecycle. Empirical evidence shows that accurate forecasting in the economic and business world is quite difficult due to significant uncertainty, since practically all types of economic and business activity depend on events that we cannot predict in principle. In this context, a high-level model is proposed, which provides an integrated approach to the management of individual or complex assets. The proposed global model contains six sub-models: Market and revenue sub-model, A sub-model of factors of reliability, availability and serviceability, A sub-model of operations and operational constraints, Cost submodel, Organizational submodel A sub-model of influence taking into account other influence factors. The models of this plan provide a comprehensive approach to the management of individual or complex assets. It can help organizations overcome challenges associated with aging infrastructure or human assets, as well as isolated or disconnected systems. An integrated approach can help align operations with overall business goals by breaking down multiple non-standard, non-integrated systems. This integrated approach can also support long-term and short-term planning, use preventive maintenance and asset-based maintenance methods, help manage suppliers by supporting a full range of contracts and fully support service agreement management, etc.

Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the current methods of increasing the international competitiveness of IT enterprises. Assessing the international competitiveness of Information Technology (IT) companies is a crucial process that involves evaluating various factors to determine their ability to thrive in the global marketplace. Several methods can be employed to gain insights into the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that IT companies face on an international scale. Analyzing factors such as operational costs, labor efficiency, and resource management helps IT companies maintain competitive pricing and profitability on the international stage. Methods for assessing the international competitiveness of IT companies include benchmarking, SWOT analysis, global market research, innovation assessment, cost competitiveness analysis, global talent pool evaluation, adaptability to regulatory environments, and customer satisfaction feedback. These approaches help IT companies understand their position in the global market, identify strengths and weaknesses, adapt to diverse regulatory landscapes, and enhance customer satisfaction, ensuring strategic positioning for success. By employing these methods, IT companies can obtain a comprehensive understanding of their international competitiveness and strategically position themselves for success in the global marketplace. These assessments are dynamic, requiring continuous refinement to adapt to changing market conditions and technological landscapes. A review of two methods of assessing competitiveness is carried out, namely, SPACE-analysis and the method of points. The peculiarities of increasing international competitiveness are studied on the example of Sigma Softwear LLC. The authors analyze the efficiency of using these methods, determine the strategy to be applied by the enterprise, and compare it with the main competitors. The competitiveness assessment shows that Sigma Softwear LLC continues to improve its competitive position in recent years, but is still not a leader in the IT industry. When analyzing competitive forces, it was found that the company is strongly affected by competitive forces such as competition within the industry and loss of customers. This is one of the key factors in shaping the company's competitiveness. Also, the company should choose an aggressive strategy, as the company has a competitive advantage and can protect it, but the key factor is that new competitors may enter the industry, so the company should accumulate assets, increase market share, and focus on competitive products.

Published: April 2024

One of the main criteria for the success of SMB enterprises is the increase in the number of sales, but this criterion cannot be met if the marketing strategy is not good enough. Marketing strategy is an important element of modern enterprise management. The presence of unsolved and debatable issues regarding the formation of the marketing strategy of SMB segment enterprises led to the choice of research issues. The purpose of the article is to consider the problem of forming a marketing strategy of small and medium-sized communication enterprises. The article analyzes the peculiarities of marketing activities of enterprises belonging to small and medium-sized businesses. Specific features unique to small and medium-sized businesses are identified and given. Strategies that can be used at SMB enterprises are summarized. Having a well-thought-out formalized marketing strategy, its adaptation to the conditions of the enterprise allows to use the strategic advantages of a small enterprise. The factors preventing the full implementation of the marketing strategy in the activities of small and medium-sized businesses are indicated. In particular, the most important of them are: the intuition of marketing activity, the lack of consistency between the marketing strategy and other strategies at the enterprise, the absence of a separate specialist who would professionally deal with marketing issues. Without this strategy, it is impossible to define the target audience, understand their problems and offer their solutions. In order to attract the attention of small business customers, a marketing strategy should be prepared and consider that to gain an edge in the industry, you need to offer something new, consistent and smart. It is worth valuing networking, looking for non-obvious methods of promotion, cooperating, establishing publicity and valuable relationships, asking for reviews and opinions of customers.

Published: April 2024

The dynamic development of the digital economy concept is a direct result of the availability and development of Internet services (digitalization of the economy). New opportunities for creating and delivering value to customers have led to an increased interest in the concept of strategic management of enterprises among practitioners and management theorists. The article notes that enterprises must integrate their internal resources and capabilities with external ones in order to be able to achieve specific strategic goals, responding appropriately to the challenges associated with environmental dynamics. Approaches to assessing the a posteriori effectiveness of strategic management are considered. The models aimed at determining the types of space in which modern enterprises operate are analyzed. A typology of channels of interaction between elements of the enterprise management system is proposed. The author's own approach to assessing the measurement of the effectiveness of the management strategy is presented, which takes into account two groups of factors: its coherence and the efficiency of the enterprise's activities. The results of the study allow verification of the theoretical model and provide grounds for building an a posteriori model of strategic management of enterprises in the digital economy. The results of the study will allow to verify the theoretical model and provide grounds for building an a posteriori model of strategic management of enterprises in the digital economy. The spatial perspective can be used in many studies of issues related to the functioning of enterprises and strategic management processes, such as digital strategy, business models, issues related to Industry 4.0, e-business models, changing or evolving roles of managers in strategic management, issues of social responsibility of business, and effective management of the work environment.

In today's world, the information and communication space is turning into an extremely dynamic and voluminous area that requires efficient means of processing and analysing information. Traditional methods are no longer always able to meet the challenges of today, so there is a need to introduce artificial intelligence to optimise processes in this area. Information and communication space is a complex concept that covers all aspects related to the dissemination, exchange and perception of information in society. It includes all sources of information, communication technologies, networks, as well as cultural, social, economic and political contexts that influence communication processes. The special importance of the information and communication space lies in the fact that it is a tool for promoting the development of society, democratisation, and the exchange of knowledge and ideas between different groups, countries and peoples. The creation of a unified information and communication space is an important step for Ukraine, which will facilitate its integration into the global information space and ensure active participation in various social processes. The information and communication space is evolving rapidly, and artificial intelligence (AI) is already playing a significant role in its current formation. AI has the potential to revolutionise the way we communicate, access information and make decisions. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field that develops intelligent machines that can perform tasks that would normally require human intelligence. Artificial intelligence systems are designed to learn from experience, recognise patterns and make decisions based on input data. It is worth noting that algorithms in artificial intelligence systems play a key role in solving complex problems and processing information. In particular, they provide machine learning, where the system analyses huge amounts of data to identify patterns and improves its performance on its own. Deep learning algorithms, such as neural networks, are used to create models that can recognise and solve the semantics of tasks that were previously considered difficult, or even impossible, for computers. Clustering algorithms in the information and communication space help to organise data, making it more understandable and easier to analyse. At the same time, natural language processing algorithms help artificial intelligence systems understand and interact with textual information. This opens up new possibilities for automated text analysis, entity recognition, and natural language user interaction.

A neural network forecast of substorms caused by the impact of solar wind plasma flows on theEarth’s magnetosphere has been performed. For this, recurrent neural network models were created based onphysical cause-and-effect relationships of the dynamics of high-latitude geomagnetic activity (according tothe AL index) with the parameters of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and solar wind plasma (SWP).Two parameters are used as input sequences: the bz-component of the IMF and the integral parameterΣ[NV2], taking into account the prehistory of the process of pumping the kinetic energy of the solar wind intothe magnetosphere, where N and V are the plasma density and solar wind velocity, respectively. The forecastof the AL index according to SWP and IMF for 10 min, etc. with 10 min discreteness individually by an individualartificial neural network (ANN) for each point corresponding to the dynamics of the AL index wascompleted. This means that the prediction of a continuous series of values AL index is achieved by a parallelrunning of the ANN package.

A mathematical model of oleic spot propagation based on the laws of conservation of mass and total energy of the system is constructed. Compact solutions of this model are presented both for machine oil stains of limited area and for unlimited spills of crude oil. Experiments have been carried out to study the dynamics of spreading of a compact spot of reference engine oil and crude oil under various physical conditions. Comparison of experimental and theoretical results showed their good agreement for all dynamic modes of the process under study.

The paper is based on geological and geophysical data obtained during 53-th expedition of the research vessel “Akademik Nikolaj Strakhov”. We analyze the structure of Mid-Atlantic Ridge segment, 400 km long in the North Atlantic (between 48° and 51.5° N). According to our studies, this segment is characterized by specific structures formed during the formation of the oceanic crust with reduced basaltic melts supply, which, with going extension in the rift valley, leads to tectonic outcropping of deep lower crustal and mantle rocks. Such processes, called “dry” spreading, were previously unknown in the North Atlantic.

Vegetable-tanned leather exhibits a hydrophilic character due to the abundance of hydroxyl groups (-OH). In this study, the surface of vegetable-tanned leather was modified to become hydrophobic. The leather was coated using dodecylamine (DDA) through the padding method in the finishing process. The concentration of DDA varied from 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% to identify the optimum concentration. The coating process was assisted by an activator, either acid or base, to improve the adhesion of DDA to leather. Uncoated vegetable-tanned leather was used as a control. The success of coating was identified using FT-IR and SEM-EDX analysis. The hydrophobicity of leather was conducted through a water resistance test. The success of coating is shown by the increase in their weight and thickness. Absorption bands of alkyl and amino groups of DDA are observed in FT-IR spectra around 1450 cm-1 and 3400 cm-1, respectively. SEM micrographs show that coated leathers have flatter surfaces as a consequence of DDA attachment on the leather surface. The water resistance test proves that the use of DDA can improve the leather hydrophobicity and enhance the water absorption time by up to 4 times. The optimum water absorption time is obtained when using 2% DDA.

Статтю присвячено розробці систем візуалізації руху безпілотних рухомих об’єктів, зокрема автономних безпілотних підводних апаратів, на основі використання інструменту для візуального програмування потоків даних Node-RED. Розробку системи візуалізації виконано на прикладі використання Node-RED з інтеграцією інерціальної навігаційної системи фірми «Inertial Labs», до складу якої входять акселерометри, гіроскопи, магнітометри, приймач глобальної навігаційної супутникової системи та антена. Для візуалізації руху об’єкту, на якому встановлена навігаційна система, використовуються дані про орієнтацію, швидкість та координати місцеположення. Демонструється структура системи візуалізації, засоби розробки та засоби візуалізації руху. Моніторинг системи візуалізації та середовища розробки відбувається у веб-сторінці, що дозволяє не використовувати спеціальне обладнання зі специфічним програмним забезпеченням.
Для системи візуалізації розроблено спеціальну програму в середовищі Node-RED, яка розділена за функціональним призначенням на програму запуску та зупинки навігаційної системи, програму отримання та обробки даних від навігаційної системи, та програму візуалізації даних. Як результат розробки системи представлено графічний інтерфейс, в якому реалізовано запуск та зупинку навігаційної системи, візуальне представлення даних сенсорів, візуалізація місцеположення об’єкта на мапі, текстові та/або графічні (індикаторні) представлення даних орієнтації, швидкості, тощо. Виконавча програма інтерфейсу в середовищі Node-RED має об’ємний вид, у якості прикладу наведено  програму для формування візуалізації тексту для координат та програму з використанням скалярної векторної графіки для візуалізації кута курсу об’єкта.
Використання Node-RED дозволяє розробляти нові системи візуалізації, збору та аналізу даних про рух безпілотних об'єктів у складі навігаційних комплексів таких об’єктів для забезпечення можливості моніторингу їх функціонального технічного стану та виконання поставлених завдань.

Published: April 2024

Artikel ini bertujuan memaparkan terkait penerapan demokratisasi birokrasi di Kota Makassar khususnya pada layanan keterbukaan informasi publik. Adapun latar belakang penulisan ini karena masih rendahnya penerapan keterbukaan informasi publik sesuai amanat UU nomor 14 tahun 2008 di tingkat Pemerintah Daerah. Salah satunya yakni Pemerintah Kota Makassar yang baru menerbitkan perwali pada tahun 2016 yang sebelumnya dipersyaratkan 2 tahun setelah ditetapkan yakni tahun 2010. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan mixed method dengan melakukan secara simultan metode kualitatif dan metode kuantitatif dengan fokus pada pemahaman aparatur, penyediaan fasilitas dan komitmen Wali Kota Makassar dalam keterbukaan informasi publik. Penelitian menggunakan metode wawancara, survei, observasi dan studi dokumen dalam mengumpulkan data. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa demokratisasi birokrasi dalam layanan keterbukaan informasi publik di pemerintah Kota Makassar sudah berjalan walaupun belum optimal. hal ini karena pengetahuan dan pemahaman aparatur birokrasi masih belum sepenuhnya mengetahui UU nomor 14 tahun 2008 serta muatan yang ada di dalamnya. penyediaan layanan publik berupa pembentukan PPID di tiap Organisasi Perangkat Daerah (OPD) masih belum mencapai angka 50% yakni hanya 36% serta komitmen Wali Kota Makassar belum sepenuhnya hal ini ditandai dengan lambatnya penerbitan Perwali dan rendahnya kepercayaan representasi OPD atas komitmen tersebut.
