Published: October 2019

The interior design of the Islamic style in traditional cites included tangible and intangible influences, which organized the interior space according to the needs of the users and following the rules of Islam as a religion and cultural values. The quality of the interior space referred to the three points, the Rules, Elements, and Factors. However, the designers face difficulties in designing an interior space within the Islamic style. The studies in the Islamic interior design show the elements and components of the style, but few of these studies analyze in depth the quality of this style, especially, heritage houses. The research question of the current study is “What are the original components, rules, and factors that reflect the quality of the interior design of the Islamic style”. The aim of the study is to identify these components, rules, and factors as a guideline. The study used a mixed methodology; the qualitative mode used the in-depth interview with experts selected by purposeful sampling technique. While the quantitative mode used a checklist to observe the visual analysis of the interior space of the selected buildings. The selected building was chosen under special criteria depending on the heritage value and availability of information. The results showed that the quality of interior design reflected by the level of the details of the interior elements. However, 72% of the samples reflected the originality of the design. The quality of interior space in traditional and heritage houses in old Mosul City related to the details of the interior elements, such as materials.

Authors: Alba Cecep , Kusnadi Ade Engkus , Maulana Syarif
Published: October 2019

Tukang Bubur Naik Haji (TBNH) was one of the most popular television dramas in Indonesia. The popularity was measured either by its long-running drama episodes – i.e. from the year 2012 until 2017. In the outline, the story was about the Jakartans daily life with the figure of Bang Sulam as the main character. Bang Sulam was a chicken porridge seller who aspired to perform Hajj (Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca) as a part of Five Pillars of Islam. In TBNH, there were a number of scenes that represented the existence of ulema (Islamic cleric) in the midst of society. The ulema was not only propagated religious messages conventionally but also used technology as a more effective means of delivery. The delivery of religious messages through this technology channel was analyzed by semiotic and multimodality approaches. Through these methods, a number of scenes in TBNH were examined and viewed from various sides such as the camera angle, text analysis, the actor’s gaze direction, the color semiotics of the attribute, etc. The result of this study showed a technologically literate ulema represented by breaking the fourth wall, the use of tools in delivering messages, white as a symbol of purity, and the adapted text to the montage scenes.

Published: October 2019

In the Malay culture, a wedding invitation is regarded as one of the most essential parts of the nuptials. It does not only convey good news but also requests the presence of all relatives, friends and social acquaintances to gather at a certain place and time for solemnization and reception ceremonies. A wealth of research on patterns of wedding invitations has been conducted among various societies throughout the world. However, not much genre-analysis research relating to wedding invitations among the Malays can be found. Hence, the present preliminary study was conducted to explore various patterns of Malay written wedding invitations. Adopting the genre analysis model proposed by Swales, 60 samples of the Malay wedding invitation cards were analyzed in terms of move orders, obligatory and optional moves. The cards were randomly selected from a collection of invitations from 2015 to 2019. This study revealed that the Malays frequently employed seven generic moves in their written wedding invitations.

Published: October 2019

In this global market, the demand and competition for mining products are very high. However, the adverse impact on the environment and society has become very prevalent. In the World Bank report, there are social issues that still unaddressed; there is the issue of how the benefits are allocated within the host communities, and it’s a challenge to mining companies to behave responsibly especially with their relationship to the host communities. United Nations has committed to “leaving no one behind” in an effort to help countries promote inclusive growth and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Philippine government, through the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), has established the Republic Act No. 7942, ‘or the Philippine Mining Act of 1995. The Development of Mining Communities has been emphasized in Chapter XIV Section 134-136F of its Consolidated Administrative Order 2010-21. The Social Development and Management Program (SDMP) is mandated to be implemented by all operating mining/quarrying companies to support the education, health, social, cultural and economic aspects in the host communities. Since its implementation in 2011, it was noted that there are inconsistencies in the implementation of the Program. Thus, this research provided the necessary framework and recommendations to help just completed Programs and eventually improve the existing implementation of SDMP of mining companies. The concurrent triangulation mixed-methods research design was utilized wherein both the qualitative and quantitative approaches were simultaneously analyzed. Survey questionnaires were administered to an estimated 376 respondents from the host communities during site visits. In addition, interviews and FGD were conducted to the various community representatives of the same. The results are the basis of a policy framework to help improved and reach its objectives to create self-reliant and resources-based communities.

Published: October 2019

Rapid growth in the construction industry has increased construction waste generation and caused serious impact on the environment. In Malaysia, most contractors are using the conventional method as the main method in the construction process. However, using conventional methods for construction work is not environmentally friendly because of the poor quality control at the construction site and the uncontrolled waste production. This has contributed to pollution problems in the environment in the form of air and water pollution, and construction waste. The aim of this study was to identify the type of construction waste and causes of waste generation from conventional methods with IBS. In addition, this study also suggests measures to minimize construction waste generation at the construction site. This study used quantitative methods of questionnaires as an instrument. A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed to the G7 contractors and developers in Johor to get feedback. The data obtained were analyzed using statistical methods and indices mean. From the results, it was found that most types of solid waste high in conventional construction are wood (3.85) but with the use of IBS, wood waste generation can be reduced (3.15). For the source of waste generation, it shows that the handling process is the main cause with the mean score (3.47) in IBS and the mean score (3.75) during construction is carried out for conventional methods. Therefore, IBS technology is the considered best option in order to minimize waste generation at the construction site.

INFLUENCE OF DECENTRALIZATION ON STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF INCOME AND EXPENDITURES OF LOCAL BUDGETS
Authors: MARCHUK Anna
Published: October 2019

Introduction.The objective reason for the existence of an institution of local budgets is an increase in the efficiency of the provision of public services guaranteed by the state due to the proximity of such services to the immediate consumer. This process is based on the principle of subsidiarity, requires a sufficient level of financial security of local budgets and demonstrates the basic idea of the concept of fiscal decentralization. The decentralization reform is systematic and involves structural changes in various spheres of public life. The object of research of this article is the impact of changes in tax and budget laws aimed at decentralization on structure and dynamics of income and expenditures of local budgets.

Purpose.The purpose of the article is to identify trends, priorities and unresolved issues in financing local budget expenditures, compare dynamics of expenditures with dynamics and structural changes in local budget revenues.

Results. In the course of the research, the expenditures and revenues of local budgets of Ternopil region during 2004-2017 were analysed, comparison with trends in Ukraine was made. It has been established that due to slowed down economic growth and a systematic decrease in the share of own revenues in recent years, the amount of funding for institutions and activities in the social and cultural sphere has been reduced and the transfer of important functions to the local level was not accompanied by the transfer of sufficient amount of financial resources.

Conclusions.The strategic goal of decentralization is to ensure the availability and proper quality of public services for all categories of the population. The decentralized budget system should function on the basis of a coordinated, unified national cooperation policy for many independent institutions, each of which has a legislatively defined sphere of autonomy. Since tax revenues form the main volume of own revenues of local budgets, the issue of improving the efficiency of tax administration comes to the forefront in the context of decentralization changes. Therefore, on the way to ensuring the increase of tax revenues, the strategic goal of local authorities should be to promote economic development of regions.

Authors: TRIPAK Marian
Published: October 2019

Purpose. The logic chains of primary importance in planning of the relevant expenses, which had been called to influence positively to the social development of the college are processed. The directions of budget savings in the college are determined.

Methodology of research. The article uses modern general scientific and special methods of economic research, in particular: a systematic approach – when studying the connections between phenomena and processes of analysis of the financial state of the inclusive institution; statistical analysis – in determining the dynamics, structure of financial resources of the inclusive institution of higher education in the context of general and special funds; dialectical and abstract-logical – when conducting theoretical generalizations and forming conclusions.

Results. The author’s own methodological aspects are developed with the help of mathematical modeling in relation to optimization of the structure of the college general fund budget expenditures in conditions of their effective implementation, taking into account the features of socio-cultural, health and rehabilitation society. Therefore, for the effective redistribution of the funds of the general fund of the college, we use a mathematical model, which defines the main factors of the activity of the higher education institution in conditions of socio-cultural and recreational rehabilitation. As outcome indicators, the frequency of "desirable and undesirable" factors that characterize the state of functional classification of cost estimates, as well as their correlation to the amount involved in expenditure estimates, that is, intensity indicators are offered. Thus, the logic chains of the general fund structure are determined, which should positively influence on the state of social development of the inclusive higher education institution.

Conclusions. Taking into account the above-mentioned methodology, about 7 thousand UAH of funds of the general fund of the college budget are saved. The same marginal cost savings can be achieved through the support of funding for educational, club activities work and physical education rehabilitation, which should actively generate a program of the development of social activities of college students.

Published: October 2019

Electrochemical sodium hypochlorite is used at water supply facilities all around the world. The use of natural waters containing chlorides as a raw material is very promising since it greatly simplifies the process flow scheme for producing sodium hypochlorite. Direct electrolysis technology can be retrofitted into the existing water treatment schemes without significant changes. The use of natural water containing chlorides eliminates the purchase of salt which reduces the cost of the finished product. The results of studies of direct electrolysis of water in the Vietnam Sea are presented. During the experiments the effect of seawater flow rate and current density on the concentration of active chlorine in the resulting sodium hypochlorite, the change in the current chlorine yield and the specific energy consumption per 1 kg of generated active chlorine were determined. The main process parameters are determined that provide for producing sodium hypochlorite by direct electrolysis of sea water using an iridiumruthenium oxide titanium anode as electrodes. It was shown that the current chlorine yield reaches maximum values (85 90) at an active chlorine concentration in the product of 2 0.2 g/dm3 which motivate the technological and economic feasibility of obtaining sodium hypochlorite from sea (ocean) water.

Электрохимический гипохлорит натрия применяется на объектах водоснабжения во всем мире. В качестве сырья перспективно использование природных вод, содержащих хлориды, что существенно упрощает технологическую схему получения гипохлорита натрия. Технология прямого электролиза может встраиваться в действующие схемы водоподготовки без их существенного изменения. Применение природных вод, содержащих хлориды, позволяет отказаться от покупки поваренной соли, что снижает стоимость готового продукта. Представлены результаты исследований прямого электролиза воды Вьетнамского моря. В ходе экспериментов определяли влияние расхода морской воды и плотности тока на концентрацию активного хлора в получаемом гипохлорите натрия, изменение величины выхода хлора по току и удельный расход электроэнергии на 1 кг образующегося активного хлора. Определены основные технологические параметры, позволяющие получать гипохлорит натрия прямым электролизом морской воды с использованием в качестве электродов оксидный иридиеворутений титановый анод. Показано, что выход хлора по току достигает максимальных значений (85 90) при концентрации активного хлора в продукте 2 0,2 г/дм3, что обусловливает технологическую и экономическую целесообразность получения гипохлорита натрия из морской (океанской) воды.

Увеличение удельной биохимической мощности сооружений с применением так называемых гранулированных активных илов является одним из перспективных направлений развития технологий биологической очистки сточных вод. Гранулированные илы это микробные биоценозы, специализирующиеся на разложении и минерализации веществ, содержащихся в сточных водах. Отличие от обычных илов обусловлено двумя важными факторами: строением основной структурной единицы гранулированного ила гранулы, и высокой скоростью осаждения (до 20 м/ч). Это позволяет создавать в биореакторах очистки сточных вод дозы ила до 10 г/л. Представлены результаты разработки первой в РФ биотехнологии очистки городских сточных вод с применением гранулированного активного ила. Технология реализована на объектах АО Мосводоканал . Технология аэробной биологической очистки в реакторе последовательнопериодического действия с последовательной нитриденитрификацией и восходящим потоком сточной воды позволяет обеспечить качество очищенной воды, соответствующее нормативам предельно допустимых концентраций для сброса в водоемы рыбохозяйственного назначения. Техникоэкономическое сравнение разработанной технологии с технологией удаления биогенных элементов в аэротенке проточного типа показало, что затраты жизненного цикла сооружений с частично гранулированным активным илом в 1,4 раза меньше затрат традиционной технологии биологической очистки (для производительности 1000 м3/сут).

Increasing the specific biochemical capacity of the facilities using the socalled granular activated sludge is one of the promising areas for the development of biological wastewater treatment technologies. Granular sludge is microbial biocenosis specializing in the decomposition and mineralization of substances present in wastewater. The main distinction from regular sludge is due to two important factors: the composition of the basic structural unit of granular sludge granules, and a high sedimentation rate (up to 20 m/h). This provides for developing sludge doses of up to 10 g/l in bioreactors of wastewater treatment. The results of the development of the first biotechnology in Russia for municipal wastewater treatment of using granular activated sludge are presented. The technology has been implemented at the facilities of Mosvodokanal JSC. The technology of aerobic biological treatment in a sequencing batch reactor with sequential nitridenitrification and an upward flow of wastewater provides for the quality of effluent that meets the standards for maximum permissible concentrations for discharge into fishery bodies. Technical and economic comparison of the developed technology with the technology of removing nutrients in flowthrough aeration tank showed that the life cycle costs of the facilities with partially granulated activated sludge are 1.4 times less than the costs of traditional biological treatment technology (for a capacity of 1000 m3/day).

Prediction of software defects is a highly researched and important domain for cost - saving advantage in software development. Different methods of classification using attributes of static code were used to predict defects in software.However, the defective instances count is very minimal compared to the count of non - defective instances and this leads to imbalanced data, where the ratio of data class is not equal. For such data, conventional machine learning techniques give poor results.While there are different strategies to address this issue, normal oversampling methods are different versions of the SMOTE algorithm, These approaches are based on local information,instead of the complete distribution of minority class.GANs is used to approximate the true data distribution of minority class data used for software defect prediction.

This study aims to determine Management Fraud Propensity Factors of Fraud Triangle and International Standards on Auditing no: 240 (ISA 240) relationship with earning manipulation. It also examines potential moderating effect of Corporate Governance, measured by index as proxy to opportunity on relationship between Management Fraud Propensity Factors and Earning Manipulation. Samples of this study consisted of 504 firm-year observations comprising of 252 earnings manipulating firms matched with 252 non-earnings manipulating firms based on industry, year and size. Corporate governance disclosure was measured using corporate governance index (CGI), replicated from ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard (ACGSC) components. Management fraud propensity factors (pressure/ incentives, opportunity, rationalization/ attitude) were examined using logistical regression to assess relationship with earnings manipulation. This study is unique as it utilised CGI as proxy for opportunity, replacing limited numerous governance attributes commonly used argued for deficiency in portraying existing linkage within corporate governance ecosystem. CGI was also tested on its potential moderating effect on relationship between management fraud propensity factors (pressure/ incentives; rationalization/ attitude) and earnings manipulation, in line with Agency Theory. Results revealed management fraud propensity factors of pressure/incentives (recurring negative cash flows from operation, rapid growth, unusual profitability, need for financing), opportunity (corporate governance index) and rationalisation/attitudes (management interest on earnings trend) significantly related with earnings manipulation. Contradictory to expectation, CGI also showed significant positive interaction on strengthening relationship between pressure-related fraud propensity factors due to recurring negative cash flows from operations and earnings manipulation. Possible explanation is firms with strong corporate governance but experiencing weak financial standings are constantly pressured by shareholders to meet their interests which driven management to manipulate profit. This study provides tools to regulators to stay vigilant of firms with characteristics of potential earnings manipulation engagement and useful in providing insights to shareholders for selecting stocks not prone to earnings manipulation.

Banks assume a significant job in the Indian financial system related framework. In an economy overwhelmed by banks, the continued weakening of the financial segment because of monetary record issues makes a delay genuine financial action and can appear as a monetary emergency. It is basic to rapidly resolve an emergency in the financial segment with the goal that banks, as the fundamental wellspring of credit, can start to work typically once more. In India, the financial emergency is a common phenomenon. Since the progression changes of 1991, there have been two noteworthy scenes of the financial emergency: the first occurred during the period 1997-2002 and the second started in the wake of the Global 2008 Crisis budgetary and has not yet been settled. A solid financial part is significant for an economy like our own. In our nation, the financial part has experienced a turnaround change after 1991 and, in this way, credit to the individuals. Because of which, banks have turned out to be increasingly careful in giving credits. Non performed asset (NPA) will indicates the performance of a bank. The abnormal state of NPA mirrors an enormous number of defaults and, at last, influences the productivity of banks. HDFC Bank, State bank of India and furthermore recommends a few methodologies to lessen them. NPA are the blocks opposite to the growth of National GDP. This paper identifies the impact of NPA on the overall development of the Indian economy as well as the measures to be taken in order to the recovery and control of NPA in future.
