Random generation of Boolean functions with high degree of correlation immunity
Authors: Grocholewska-Czuryło Anna
Published: April 2024

In recent years a cryptographic community is paying a lot of attention to the constructions of so called resilient functions for use mainly in stream cipher systems. Very little work however has been devoted to random generation of such functions. This paper tries to fill that gap and presents an algorithm that can generate at random highly nonlinear resilient functions. Generated functions are analyzed and compared to the results obtained from the best know constructions and some upper bounds on nonlinearity and resiliency. It is shown that randomly generated functions achieve in most cases results equal to the best known designs, while in other cases fall just behind such constructs. It is argued that the algorithm can perhaps be used to prove the existence of some resilient functions for which no mathematical prove has been given so far.

Integrated Routing and Network Flow Control Embracing Two Layers of TCP/IP Networks – Methodological Issues
Authors: Karbowski Andrzej
Published: April 2024

A cross-layer network optimization problem is considered. It involves network and transport layers, treating both routing and flows as decision variables. Due to the nonconvexity of the capacity constraints, when using Lagrangian relaxation method a duality gap causes numerical instability. It is shown that the rescue preserving separability of the problem may be the application of the augmented Lagrangian method, together with Cohen’s Auxiliary Problem Principle.

Improvement of the Performance of Database Access Operations in Cellular Networks
Authors: Dolama Mustafa Vahabzadeh , Rahbar Akbar Ghaffarpour
Published: April 2024

Reducing the traffic volume of location updating is a critical issue for tracking mobile users in a cellular network. Besides, when user x wants to communicate with user y, the location of user y must be extracted from databases. Therefore, one or more databases must be accessed for updating, recording, deleting, and searching. Thus, the most important criterion of a location tracking algorithm is to provide a small database access time. In this paper, we propose a new location tracking scheme, called Virtual Overlap Region with Forwarding Pointer (VF), and compare the number of database accesses required for updating, deleting, and searching operations for the proposed scheme and other approaches proposed for cellular networks. Our VF scheme like Overlap Region scheme reduces the updating information when a user frequently moves in boundaries of LAs. Unlike Overlap Region, the VF can reduce number of database accesses for searching users’ information.
On the Design of the TCP/AQM Traffic Flow Control Mechanisms
Authors: Karpowicz Michał P.
Published: April 2024

Several aspects of the TCP/AQM system design are discussed that may affect performance of the network. Namely, due to decentralized structure of the network traffic flow control system in which traffic rate control tasks are delegated to autonomous agents, it may be possible for the agents to profitably re-engineer the TCP congestion control algorithm at the cost of the overall performance of the network. In this paper it is shown how the commonly applied TCP/AQM design procedures may give rise to mechanisms that are prone to attacks discreetly moving the network traffic flow away from the desired operating point. Furthermore, a short discussion is presented concerning the countermeasures that can be taken to reduce these effects.
ID Layer for Internet of Things Based on Name-Oriented Networking
Authors: Batalla Jordi Mongay , Krawiec Piotr , Gajewski Mariusz , Sienkiewicz Konrad
Published: April 2024

Object and service identification is considered as one of the main challenges in the field of Internet of Things (IoT), which can be solved by the introduction of the so called ID (IDentifier) layer. The objective of this layer is to expose IoT objects and services offered by them, to users. Common approach for ID layer is to create it in overlay manner, on the top of existing network. This paper presents a novel architecture of the ID layer, which is characterized by embedding ID layer functionality into the network plane. Moreover, this approach takes advantage of the Name-Oriented Networking (NON) paradigm. To gain easy access to the IoT objects and services, as well as native support for multicast service, human readable ID-based unified addressing with hierarchical structure was exploited. Additionally, in-network caching of forwarded IoT data, inherited from the NON, helps to reduce total network load and supports applications during collaboration with energy-constrained sensors. Such sensors may enter sleep mode to save energy and then the network nodes can serve requests for sensing data, arrived from applications, by using data stored in nodes’ cache. The paper shows the concept of NON-based ID layer and describes functional architecture of network node paying attention on modules and mechanisms related with ID layer functionality. Primary ID layer processes, i.e., object/service registration, resolution and data forwarding are explained in detail. Moreover, the ID-aware network node was implemented on Linux-based platform and tested to check its forwarding characteristics. The tests showed the performance of the of ID network node in data plane operations, which are the more sensitive for scalability issues.
Approximation of Message Inter-Arrival and Inter-Departure Time Distributions in IMS/NGN Architecture Using Phase-Type Distributions
Authors: Kaczmarek Sylwester , Sac Maciej
Published: April 2024

Currently it is assumed that requirements of the information society for delivering multimedia services will be satisfied by the Next Generation Network (NGN) architecture, which includes elements of the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) solution. In order to guarantee Quality of Service (QoS), NGN has to be appropriately designed and dimensioned. Therefore, proper traffic models should be proposed and applied. This requires determination of queuing models adequate to message inter-arrival and interdeparture time distributions in the network. In the paper the above mentioned distributions in different points of a single domain of NGN are investigated, using a simulation model developed according to the latest standards and research. Relations between network parameters and obtained message inter-arrival as well as interdeparture time distributions are indicated. Moreover, possibility of approximating the above mentioned distributions using phase-type distributions is investigated, which can be helpful in identifying proper queuing models and constructing an analytical model suitable for NGN.
Quality Management in 4G Wireless Networking Technology Allows to Attend High-Quality Users
Authors: Langer Małgorzata
Published: April 2024

The 4G networks are all-IP based heterogeneous networks that allow users to use any system at anytime and anywhere, and support a variety of personalized, multimedia applications such as multimedia conferencing, video phones, video/movie-on-demand, education-on-demand, streaming media, multimedia messaging, etc. Personalized services should be supported by personal mobility capability, which concentrates on the movement of users instead of users’ terminals. As the technology matures, traffic congestion increases, and competitive pressures mount, QoS and policy management will become more and more important. Also the users come with a number of new requirements on connectivity, and D2D networking technology must follow the idea of “Internet of things”. Operators must make sure they are working with vendors that have a strong framework to supply end-to-end QoS and are capable of supporting evolving needs. The paper discusses qualitative and quantitative indicators of telecommunication services. Main challenges that need to be addressed by nowadays and future systems are shown, and within them the massive growth in traffic volume and in the number of connected devices seems to play the most key role.
Telemaco: A Language Oriented Tool for Graph-based Models Layout Optimization
Authors: Iacono Mauro , Marrone Stefano
Published: April 2024

Progress of ICT is shifting the paradigm of systems organization towards a distributed approach, in which physical deployment of components influences the evaluation of systems properties. This contribution can be considered as a problem of graph layout optimization, well-known in literature where several approaches have been exploited in different application fields with different solving techniques. Then again, complex systems can be only studied by means of different formalisms which codification is the aim of language engineering. Telemaco is a tool that supports a novel approach for the application of graph layout optimizations to heterogeneous models, based on the OsMoSys framework and on the language engineering principles. It can cope with different graph-based formalisms by exploiting either their core graph nature or their different specialized features by means of language hierarchies. In this paper Telemaco is introduced together with its foundations and an example of application to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) deployment.

Influence of plants and spices on the formation of biogenic amines in meat
Authors: Al Bayatı Mustafa Hamza Mawlood , Cengiz Mehmet Fatih
Published: April 2024

Biogenic amines (BAs) consist of organic nitrogenous compounds produced by the amino acid’s decarboxylation. They are present in various foods, such as meat products, and are associated with several health hazards. In meat, BAs are produced by the action of microorganisms that can decarboxylate amino acids. BAs can also be produced in meat naturally by enzymatic pathways. Tyramine, histamine, cadaverine, and putrescine are BAs frequently found in meat products. BAs are frequently found in fish depending on the species and time-temperature control, but can also be present in meat, particularly in canned, cured and fermented meat products. BAs are associated with various health disorders and toxicological effects including cardiovascular, respiratory and gastrointestinal system problems. Numerous factors influence the BAs generation in meat products. Factors such a handling, storage temperature, and processing procedures are essential for minimizing the risk of BAs formation to ensure food safety. Plant extracts and spices, play a multifaceted role in regulating BAs developments in diverse food items. Plant extracts containing phenolic/polyphenols, terpenoids and alkaloids have exhibited antimicrobial properties that can hinder the growth of microorganisms responsible for producing amines, consequently reducing BAs formation. Also, spices frequently contain compounds that impede the enzymatic conversion of precursor amino acids into biogenic amines.

Authors:   Korea Accounting Information Association, Hwang Sejun , Chung Silver
Published: April 2024

[Purpose]This paper examines how audit fees change in response to mandated audit fee disclosure in Korea.
[Methodology]We use the difference－in－differences approach by comparing changes in audit fees of listed firms who are required to disclose the fees with changes in the fees of unlisted firms who are exempt from the requirement between 1999 and 2002.
[Findings]Difference－in－difference analyses show that audit fees of listed firms increase following the disclosure mandate relative to the fee of unlisted firms. Additional analyses show that the overall increase in audit fees is driven by the decrease in negative abnormal audit fees (i.e., reduction in undercharges), not by the increase in abnormal audit fees. Lastly, cross－sectional analyses reveal that the increase in audit fees after the adoption of the disclosure requirement is smaller for larger firms and firms audited by big N auditors, but more pronounced for initial audit engagement.
[Implications]This study adds to the literature on how disclosure affects contracts between audit firms and clients by showing a clear causal link between audit fee disclosure and audit fees. We also provide regulatory implications by documenting the consequences of the disclosure regulation.

Published: April 2024

:  Computer technology with digital power will bring better tax payment procedures and expectations of compliance levels. The digital world will encourage increasingly widespread use of artificial intelligence components to make tax-related work easier. This research falls under comparative causal studies using a survey method. The population consists of MSME operators (individual taxpayers) in the city of Binjai who have filled out and returned the questionnaire to the researchers. The sample selection was carried out using purposive sampling technique, and data was gathered from the opinions or perceptions of MSME operators (individual taxpayers) in Binjai. The primary data obtained were descriptively analyzed, and the model and the influence of tax rates and tax penalties on taxpayer compliance through tax understanding were examined using path analysis. The findings indicate a significant influence of tax rates and tax penalties on taxpayer compliance both simultaneously and partially, with tax understanding as an intervening variable not fully proving to mediate the relationship between tax rates and penalties on taxpayer compliance. The low path analysis value in this study should be considered by subsequent researchers to include other variables that may affect corporate value

The university of Mataram car suspension and its control was designed to minimize the vibration produced by unwanted external inputs i.e., changes of road contours that reach the car passengers. This effort will provide the passenger with higher safety and comfort. In this study, a quarter car model with two degrees of freedom (2 DOF) was designed and developed its mathematical model. The effects of the road contour were studied and analyzed in terms of overshot and settling time that affect the main body, suspension as well as the passenger. The MATLAB Simulink model was programmed to mimic the behavior of the suspension and its response to the input which was the road contour (step function). This approach was very helpful to reduce the effort, time, and money. The result shows that with implementation of the design parameters chose, the responses of the system (displacement and velocities) were satisfied the criteria of comfortable (there are no overshoot), however, the settling time was seconds that much higher than expected which will disturb the passenger comfort. This point shows that the suspension design needs further improvement with consideration of using active suspension with adequate control system

Authors: Silva Anderson Costa da , Silva Geraldina Pereira da , Rodrigues Maria Natalia de Andrade
Published: April 2024

A educação física escolar contempla diferentes práticas corporais em sua estrutura de ensino. Essas práticas devem ser desenvolvidas ao longo da educação básica de maneira significativa, respeitando os limites e os valores sociais e culturais dos indivíduos. Apesar da sua importância, enquanto componente curricular, muitos alunos, em especial no ensino médio, não fazem a parte prática da disciplina, o que se constitui como um desafio para os professores. Nesse sentido, uma alternativa que se mostra relevante é o uso das tecnologias digitais como ferramenta complementar as aulas práticas da disciplina, de forma que mesmo aqueles alunos que sejam impossibilitados de cursar as aulas por motivo de trabalho, possam ser contemplados. Assim, o presente artigo tem como objetivo discorrer sobre a conscientização de práticas corporais e adoção de um estilo de vida ativo, no contexto da educação física, por meio de tecnologias digitais, para alunos do ensino médio. Acredita-se que ampliar as discussões e as práticas educacionais de forma mais interativa e consciente, tende a contribuir com o ensino e a aprendizagem de maneira significativa e motivar o aluno a aderir às atividades ao seu cotidiano.
Factors impacting science and mathematics teachers’ competencies and self-efficacy in TPACK for PBL and STEM
Authors: Mansour Nasser , Said Ziad , Abu-Tineh Abdullah
Published: April 2024

Science and mathematics teachers face the dual challenge of mastering subject-specific expertise and developing the pedagogical skills necessary for implementing integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) lessons. Research indicates a deficiency in teachers’ pedagogical competencies, particularly in project-based learning (PBL) within STEM context. To address this, the study administered a questionnaire to 245 specialized science and mathematics teachers in Qatar, aiming to examine their competencies and self-efficacy within the realm of technological pedagogical content knowledge. The focus is specifically on its integration with PBL and STEM content. Additionally, the study explores the influence of demographic and contextual factors, including gender, teaching experience, major academic subject, possession of an education certificate, specialization in STEM disciplines, and workload hours, on science and teachers’ competencies and self-efficacy in technology integration when teaching through PBL and STEM approaches. The study’s findings highlight the pivotal role of gender, formal teacher education, and the unique expertise of teachers. Surprisingly, teaching experience and school level did not show significant differences among science and mathematics teachers. However, gender disparities persist, with male teachers scoring higher in technology integration, necessitating ongoing research. Discipline-specific differences underscore the need for tailored professional development. While workload does not significantly impact technology integration, a supportive school culture is crucial, especially in secondary schools. The findings not only deepen our understanding of these factors but also provide valuable insights for crafting targeted interventions, robust professional development programs, and support systems.
Karakteristik Penggusuran di Indonesia: Pentingnya Intervensi HAM Sebelum, Sewaktu, dan Setelah Penggusuran
Authors: Hartanto Mochamad Felani Budi , Aziz Dian Andi Nur , Suntoro Agus
Published: April 2024

Development and spatial planning policies, especially physical infrastructure, are closely tied to the changes in land use. When these policies intersect with public living spaces, there is a possibility that they are leading to eviction. Although driven by public interest considerations—such as infrastructure development, post-disaster relocation and reconstruction, river flow normalization--evictions in Indonesia often coincide with conflicts, violence, lack of information, and inadequate compensation. These eviction practices are closely associated with alleged human rights violations. This article aims to critically examine the normative aspects of eviction policies and practices in Indonesia from a human rights perspective. It also raises the idea of human rights intervention in eviction policies and practices, aiming at establishing an ideal balance between spatial planning needs and human rights protection for displaced communities. By juxtaposing eviction policies and practices in Indonesia with human rights instruments related to evictions, this kind of intervention is necessary in within three time frames of eviction, namely before, during, and after evictions. Within these temporalities, the government should consider all alternatives outside evictions, provide clear information including eviction procedures, ensure protection for affected communities, and ensure reparative efforts for impacted communities.
Prediction of potential deviations in settlement area space patterns based on cellular Automata in Mapanget District, Manado City

Published: April 2024

Mapanget District is one of the administrative parts of Manado City which has service functions, namely housing and new settlements, tourism, and trade and services. The Mapanget District is part of the new city planning in the 2015–2019 RPJMN to account for unequal development in the city core.  Predicting the development of residential land use is crucial to avoid uncontrollably detrimental effects on suburban communities. To forecast land development over 20 years, from 2022 to 2042, this study will employ spatial analysis based on the Geography Information System-Cellular Automata and weighting analysis using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique to analyze potential deviations in the spatial pattern development of Manado City settlements, particularly Mapanget District. The software used for this research's simulation procedure is LanduseSim 2.3.1, QGIS, and Archmap 10.8. According to the projection results, residential land use will vary during the following 20 years, starting in 1956.75 Ha, or a 201% increase, resulting from the most important driving factor, which is closeness to existing towns. 1106.79 Ha is the possible deviation depending on the direction of the spatial pattern plan for residential structures. It is advised to plan tall buildings, particularly for settlements, as the current residential land in Mapanget District exceeds both the carrying capacity and the land capacity as of 2042, according to the prediction results.
Physical systems - Balinese cultural meaning in Three Monkeys Restaurant architecture in Sanur Bali
Authors: Sombu Alwin Suryono , Adityavarman Ryadi , Talan John Petrus
Published: April 2024

Bali's Sanur tourism sector is home to many well-known structures with unique, non-Balinese architectural styles. This paper aims to expose the Balinese physical-meaning system found in the Three Monkeys restaurant's architecture in Sanur. The approach is descriptive; first, the "physical" architecture is explained, followed by the "purpose of existence" and "essence." Open frontage, bottom level raised over the terrace, and an alang-alang roof supported by bamboo poles. There is an open figure to the left and north, with bamboo trees around it and a glass-block wall atop. a blend of Balinese traditional and modern architecture. The arrangement: an open pool acts as a mediator between the dining room, kitchen, and bathroom; the terrace is shaded by frangipani trees, and there is a place of prayer in the northeast corner. The upper rooms are conditioned, enclosed by glass walls, modern compared to the lower rooms. The terrace materials are traditional (alang-alang roof, parasol stone wall - bamboo), the lower dining room is a mix of traditional (bamboo wall, alang-alang roof, wooden furniture) and modern (polished concrete floor, glass-block wall), and the upper room is modern (frameless glass wall, stainless-steel railing). The traditional-modern Balinese blend is displayed through the building's figure, layout and materials.
STEM Talk: Cultivating students’ STEM affinity and careers
Authors: Yoon Jiyoon , Ryu Jae Hyeon
Published: April 2024

The emergence of artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT, while convenient, has inadvertently reduced students’ engagement in critical thinking processes. This has led to waning interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, known for analysis and problem-solving. This study introduces “STEM Talk,” an active research presentation competition fostering diverse intelligences through visuals, language, reasoning, anecdotes, and emotion. It examines STEM Talk’s impact on 20 high school students’ STEM interests and careers. Pre- and post-STEM affinity tests and interviews reveal STEM Talk’s ability to notably boost affinity and reshape perceptions of STEM careers.

Published: April 2024

The article looks into why, to date, discourses of peace in the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict context failed to present a challenge to the hegemony of ethnonationalism. With the liberal world order in crisis and Armenian and Azerbaijani identities entering a period of redefinition following the latter’s overwhelming military victory and exodus of the Armenian population from Nagorno-Karabakh, the article argues for a sustained effort towards rethinking peace and ongoing dialogue among realist, liberal, and post-liberal thinkers a road towards a multifaceted and interdisciplinary process that could move the South Caucasus away from violence and towards peace.

The purpose of the research is to analyze the Soviet tax legislation and determine the practice of taxing the Orthodox clergy of Ukraine, establishing other payments paid by the clergy in the mid-1940s – 1980s. The research methodology is based on the use of general scientific and special historical research methods, including problem-chronological, historical-comparative, typological, diachronic, etc. Scientific novelty. The Soviet tax legislation in the field of taxation of the Orthodox clergy is analyzed. It was established that, in addition to the extremely high income tax, the clergy had to make a number of other payments. The peculiarities of taxation of the Orthodox clergy in Ukraine have been clarified. The attitude of clergymen to the tax system, attempts to challenge and transform it are analyzed. Conclusions. Taxation of the Orthodox clergy in the mid-1940s – 1980s was one of the ways to put pressure on them to stop religious activities. In general, the tax policy in relation to the Orthodox clergy in Ukraine was determined by general Soviet trends, although in some cases it had its own peculiarities. In the 1940s, the amount of individual taxes for the Orthodox clergy of the Ukrainian SSR was higher than in other republics of the USSR. Increased taxation was used as one of the ways to fight against the Greek Catholic clergy, who refused to convert to the Russian Orthodox Church. The system of taxation of the Orthodox clergy remained discriminatory throughout the studied period. One of the most unfair was the income tax, which reached 81%. Often, the amount of tax payments was deliberately overestimated by employees of financial departments. As a result of such a system, the Orthodox clergy, especially in rural areas, was often in a very difficult situation, actually on the verge of survival. Having found themselves in a similar situation, priests were forced to change parishes, older clergy – to go abroad. This further contributed to the closing of churches in parishes that remained without priests.

PECULIARITIES OF COMMEMORATION OF VICTIMS OF NAZI TERROR IN THE KHARKIV REGION IN WARTIME AND POST-WAR PERIODS

Published: April 2024

The aim of the work. The article is devoted to a comprehensive study of commemorative initiatives and building of monuments connected with the commemoration of victims of Nazi terror on the territory of the Kharkiv region. The article explains the specifics of honoring the memory of different groups of victims of Nazi terror on the territory of the Kharkiv region in wartime and in the post-war period. The methodological base consists of general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, deduction, induction, systematic approach) along with special historical ones (historical-comparative, historical-systematic). The principles of scientificity, objectivity, and historicism are also applied. The scientific novelty of the research is defined by the fact that the author conducted for the first time a comprehensive study of commemorative initiatives of victims of Nazi terror on the territory of the Kharkiv region. Conclusions. During 1941–1945, the Kharkiv region was controlled by the German Military Administration. The German occupation regime established in the Kharkiv region led to numerous deaths among civilians and prisoners of war. The people's initiative served as the first step in commemorating the victims of war. Further, the state assumed control over the building of monuments. Works of monumental art became the instruments for the distribution of Soviet myths about «The Great Patriotic War». The official Soviet ceremonial model of commemoration was characterized by an intrusive cult of internationalism, heroism, Soviet patriotism, and self-sacrifice. The authorities stayed indifferent to people, keeping no record of victims and depersonalizing the dead. Due to the fatal defeats of the Red Army, the Kharkiv region lost about half a million citizens, but it wasn't highly ranked in the national narrative about the war. The state demonstrated discriminatory methods for commemoration of certain categories of the dead. Some of them were represented in the memorial space, and others were deprived of their rights. First of all, this concerned victims of mass terror – Jews, orphans, and prisoners of war. Only with the collapse of the communist regime and the independence of Ukraine these categories of victims of Nazi terror got the opportunity to convey their own vision of war to the general public.
THE NEWSPAPER «KIROVOHRADSKA PRAVDA» AS A MOUTHPIECE OF SOVIET ATHEIST PROPAGANDA IN 1954–1965

Published: April 2024

Goal of the study. The goal of the article is to conduct a comprehensive study of atheistic publications in Kirovohradska Pravda during the period of intensification of anti-religious policies in the USSR in 1954-1965. Methodology. The main methods used to prepare this publication were: problematic and chronological, analysis and synthesis, descriptive and statistical. Scientific novelty. The article is the first to examine the content of publications on atheistic topics in the Kirovohrad Regional and City Committees of the CP(B)U and the Regional Council of Workers' Pravda, Kirovohradska Pravda. The author establishes how the adoption of the resolution "On major shortcomings in scientific and atheistic propaganda and measures to improve it" by the CPBU Central Committee on July 7, 1954 affected the topics of anti-religious publications published in Kirovohradska Pravda in 1954–1965. The main directions of atheist propaganda are identified and analysed. In particular, there were publications that criticised party, state and public organisations for the low level of propaganda work among the population of the region. There have always been calls to intensify atheist propaganda and make it more qualitative. A significant number of articles were devoted to criticising religion as a phenomenon. Articles promoting a materialistic worldview were periodically published. Increased administrative pressure on clergymen in the late 1950s was reflected in the fact that Kirovohradska Pravda published articles in which they explained why they had renounced their ministry and apologised for their preaching activities. Conclusions. During the period of intensification of anti-religious policy in the USSR in 1954–1965, Kirovohradska Pravda served as a mouthpiece of atheist propaganda in the Kirovohrad region of the Ukrainian SSR. Its contents reflected the main directions of atheist propaganda. However, as some publications have shown, the goal of atheisation of the population of Kirovohrad oblast was not achieved.
