TrES: Tropical Encryption Scheme Based on Double Key Exchange
Authors: Durcheva Mariana Ivanova
Published: September 2022

Shor’s quantum algorithm establishes a polynomial time attack on the discrete logarithm problem in any group. Recent announcements of progress in building quantum computers highlight the need for new concepts to create cryptosystems that are resistant to quantum attacks. In this paper, we present а new message encryption scheme. To enhance the security of the scheme, we suggest double key-exchange protocol (KEP). The first stage of the key exchange uses a matrix power function (MPF) in a tropical semiring. These functions are based on the action of a matrix semiring acting on some matrix set. MPFs can be considered as one-way functions because they are based on some generalized satisfiability problems that are potentially NP-complete. The obtained shared secret key at the first stage of the key exchange serves as an input for the second stage. The security of the second phase relies on the difficulty of the semiring action problem. In our protocol, we suggest using left or right action of the tropical semiring (which can be both min-plus and max-plus) on the group of commutative matrices (circulant matrices, in our case). The fact that the key-exchange protocol works in two phases contributes to its security, since an attacker needs to solve two difficult problems in order to break it. The main advantages of the presented protocol are: the increased efficiency and improved security.

Authors: Akagć-Hodžić Aida , Djukić Stanimir
Published: September 2022

In the business world of today, most activities are connected to informational technologies. They enable and facilitate business, but with action and adequate use of these technologies by people. Nowadays, we increasingly talk about the ability to adapt to changes in the working environment and the use of human capital.
One of the most important requirements placed before business organizations are the capability to manage information technologies. It includes the entire package of knowledge, skills, and abilities of employees in organizations, in order to master the requirements of changeable information technology and complete the goals of its organization. Basically, it includes informational technologies, i.e., digital competences connected with lifelong learning, and adaptation of employees and their organizations to novelties that informational technologies continuously bring.
As one of the contemporary scientific approaches, this paper uses the indicators of adaptation to changes in the business environment, i.e., human capital subject to continuous learning and informational technologies, the process of adaptation to changes, which turns the crucial business competences into contemporary ones. Mutual connection of these parameters in business concept has shown openness of organizations to contemporary business and work. Although the sample of research in this paper included public institution, not companies, the research itself is of great importance, given that there have been no similar approaches in Bosnia and Herzegovina so far. The research, through surveys of government officers, has shown that the influence of informational technology on the working environment and business organization in which government officers work is evident, as well as that the environment needs contemporary competences that include a set of digital competences, continual learning, and numerous other elements in business.
The conclusions of this paper are shown that is necessary for continual monitoring and specialization of government officers in the area of use of informational technologies in everyday business. The recommendations round out the process of contemporary approach and future comparison; in order to realize business results in their organizations due to certain competences.

Lichen planus is a chronic autoimmune multi-factorial inflammatory condition of the mucocutaneous skin that mainly interests the skin and oral mucosa. Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) affects 0.5 to 1% of the world's population and all human races equally. The factors that act as triggers of autoimmune processes and determine the appearance of OLP are represented by genetic predisposition, skin injuries, viral infections, contact allergies, and medications. OLP affects the oral mucosa and occurs frequently on the inside of the cheeks and less often on the edges of the tongue, gums, or lips. The condition is manifested by the appearance of painful erosions and mouth ulcers, accompanied by erythema and gingival scaling, and sometimes localized inflammation of the gums, near the amalgam fillings. There are 132 genes currently involved in the etiopathogenesis of OLP, but only a few appear to play a major role. These genes have been termed "leader genes". Thus, based on bioinformatics studies, the main genes involved in the pathogenesis of OPL are JUN, EGFR, FOS, IL2, and ITGB4.  Although genetic status, immune system background, and infectious diseases are considered to be the most important incriminating and determining factors, the etiopathogenesis of OLP remains poorly known. Further genetic research is needed in order to achieve the generalizability of the findings and to strengthen the obtaining results.

This study built into the parents' and teachers' experiences regarding the Kindergarten learners' readiness in the New Normal in the identified Kindergarten schools in Tacloban City during School Year 2020-2021. Using the descriptive phenomenology design, 10 Kindergarten teachers and 10 parents of Kindergarten learners served as respondents. The interview questionnaire served as the main instrument. Data obtained were transcribed, coded, and analyzed to determine the emerging themes and essence of the study. The results revealed that parents’ and teachers’ experiences regarding the Kindergarten learners' readiness in the new normal were teaching and learning related. They view Kindergarten learners as unprepared to enter Kindergarten education in the new educational landscape because they have not mastered the basic literacy skills as preschoolers and still have separation anxiety. Teachers have experienced exhausting all efforts to meet ideal instruction and reinforce positive guidance. These brought an impression that Kindergarten learners are unprepared to learn the learning competencies outlined for their level of education. Hence, it is recommended that the school adopt the implications and recommendations for parents and Kindergarten teachers.

Authors: Akinfiresoye Waleola A. , Oladebeye Ifedayo H. , Adebayo Sunday A.
Published: September 2022

Wood plastic composites (WPC) were produced by mixing the sawdust (SD) of Milicia exelsa, with each polyethylene-terephthalate (PET) and “pure water” nylon sachet (NS) using a percentage weight-based in grams. The SD/PET and SD/NS mix ratios of 20:80, 30:70, and 40:60 were respectively selected for the production of the WPCs after the trial test. PET was melted at 210 oC before adding SD of 10 % moisture content and 2.00 mm size in an existing WPC extruder. The WPC was collected into 16.5 mm x 36.5 mm x 145.5 mm mould and hot pressed at 120 oC and 1.12 N/mm2 force to a thickness of 12.7 mm. This same procedure was repeated for SD/NS, but at a temperature of 190 oC. Eighteen samples of WPC were produced at three replicas for each of the ratios for both SD/PET and SD/NS. The production was carried out at the workshop of the Agricultural Engineering Department of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. The WPC was cut and trimmed to dimensions 13 mm Å~ 12.7 mm Å~ 125 mm and 12.7 mm Å~ 25.4 mm Å~ 125 mm based on ASTM D 790 and ASTM D 695 for both flexural modulus and compression tests respectively. It was discovered that the WPCs produced from SD/NS have a higher modulus of rupture (MOR) of about 22.01 N/mm2 and modulus of elasticity (MOE) of 30,728.19 N/mm2 when compared to that of SD/PET of 21.72 N/mm2 MOR and 21,611.64 N/mm2 MOE. This composite is good for the internal and external aesthetic value of buildings.

Published: September 2022

Extravasation is defined as the leakage of fluid from a blood vessel into the surrounding area at the injection site. These accidents occur during injection for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes, carried out through the peripheral or central venous lines (Chemotherapy, metabolites, or contrast agent for radiographic examination). They can be the cause of skin necrosis able to progress to significant functional, cosmetic, and psychological sequelae. 

The saline washout technique is the emergency surgical treatment of choice for extravasations of certain products, allowing the elimination of the toxicant and the preservation of the skin. In the event of skin necrosis, covering techniques such as directed healing, grafts and flaps allow healing. 

The difficulty of the therapeutic management of these lesions and their unpredictable evolution, require prevention, by the development of protocols for the installation and monitoring of the venous catheters, and by the continuous training of the nursing staff to know the symptoms of extravasation, and their immediate management. 

The aim of this work is to present a review of the existing literature, allowing to know the diagnostic criteria, insist on the means of prevention, and propose a protocol of management.

Herbs have been used as medicinal for several years to cure or rather manage different ailments such as diabetes mellitus. This is very common in rural settings of sub-saharan Africa and is now being adopted in urban areas. Opunta species have widely been seen to contain antihyperglycaemic effects. To evaluate the antihyperglycaemic and histopancreatic effect of aqueous extract of prickly pear cactus (Opuntia species) cladodes in streptozotocin-induced diabetic male Wistar rats in vivo.
This was a laboratory based research conducted at Mulungushi University involving 30 wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) that weighed between 160-200 g which were randomly selected into five groups (6 per cage); normal control, diabetic control, diabetic +metformin, diabetic +cactus and cactus only group. Initial blood glucose levels were obtained from the tail and record then Diabetes mellitus was induced using a single intraperitoneal dose of streptozotocin (70mg/kg BW) and established a persistent state of hyperglycemia after 72hours. The aqueous cactus extract of 100 mg/kg BW and metformin of 100 mg/kg BW was administered orally using intragastric cannula daily for a period of 4 weeks.
At the end of the fourth week, Diabetes + cactus and diabetes + metformin groups body weights were statistically significant when compared to the diabetic group (P<0.05). While diabetic group was statistically significant when compared to normal control (P<0.05). The relative weight of the pancreas in diabetic group was statistically significant to other groups (P<0.05). The blood glucose in diabetic + cactus was normoglycaemic at 3rd week, Diabetic + metformin group when compared to diabetic group was statistically significant (P<0.05). The normal control and cactus only groups maintained normoglycaemic till the end of the 4th week. The histological findings of the normal control and cactus only group showed normal pancreatic cytoarchitecture. Diabetes group showed high degree of disorganization in the cytoarchitecture in the islet with reduction in β cell mass and deposition of elastic fibres. The Diabetic+Metformin group showed slight decrease in the cell mass (β cells) and elastic fibres were extensively deposited. Diabetic+Cactus treated group exhibited normal histology of the pancreas with increased number of β cells.
Opuntia species are able to lower elevated blood glucose levels and ameliorate the effects of STZ on the pancreatic morphology

Parents' well-being are significant things. Well-being is not only counted for parents’ physical, emotional, and mental conditions as an individual, it also has enormous influences on various aspects of children's development. Parents tend to face challenges, difficulties, and pressures during parenting, especially when caring for children in early childhood. This study aims to determine the role of parental mindfulness and coparenting competence in predicting parental well-being. Three hundred and thirty-one parents of children in early childhood participated in this study. The researchers used the convenience sampling method. Parents completed the Parental Well-Being Scale, Bangor Mindful Parenting Scale, and Coparenting Competence Scale. The result of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that parental mindfulness and coparenting competence have significant roles in predicting parental well-being. The coefficient of determination showed that parental mindfulness and coparenting competence simultaneously explained 15.7% of the parental well-being variance. There are no significant differences in parental well-being between fathers and mothers. This finding indicates the importance of parenting competence in order to improve parental well-being.

Dalam keterbatasan pertemuan tatap muka selama pandemi, sekolah ditantang untuk mampu beradaptasi dengan cepat, termasuk membangun infrastruktur pembelajaran jarak jauh (PJJ) yang efektif dan efisien. Untuk ini, diperlukan sumber daya yang mumpuni yang tidak dimiliki oleh banyak sekolah di Indonesia. Proses pembelajaran selama pandemi adalah satu aspek yang menjadi perhatian para penyelenggara pendidikan di seluruh dunia dan diasumsikan berkaitan erat dengan kesenjangan pendidikan. Sayangnya, topik ini masih relatif sedikit diteliti di Indonesia. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memberikan gambaran awal mengenai persepsi siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) tentang kesenjangan pendidikan selama pandemi. Sebanyak 1,121 siswa SMP berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini. Mereka merupakan siswa di sekolah yang berkategori favorit atau tidak favorit. Unit sampling adalah sekolah dan seluruh siswa di sekolah tersebut diajak untuk berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini. Siswa menjawab beberapa pertanyaan terkait penyelenggaraan pendidikan selama pandemi secara daring, seperti proses pembelajaran, kualitas pendidik, kualitas infrastruktur sekolah, dan kualitas pendidikan secara keseluruhan. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji t-test untuk dua kelompok sampel, uji deskriptif, dan perbandingan jumlah respons siswa dari sekolah favorit dan tidak favorit. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa dari sekolah dengan latar belakang berbeda memiliki perbedaan persepsi yang signifikan secara statistik pada aspek fasilitas sekolah, mengindikasikan kesenjangan pendidikan dirasakan oleh siswa terutama karena kendala fasilitas sekolah. Akan tetapi, siswa dari sekolah berlatar belakang berbeda memiliki persamaan persepsi dalam beberapa aspek lainnya, termasuk bahwa PJJ memiliki konsekuensi yang cenderung negatif terhadap pemahaman mereka tentang pembelajaran, yang mendukung adanya learning loss selama pandemi.

Authors: Zakiyya Adis , Purnama Chandra
Published: September 2022

Sebagai negara kepulauan terbesar di dunia, Indonesia dengan beragam potensi dan sumber daya alam yang dimilikinya nyatanya belum cukup untuk memajukan perekonomian negara. Di sisi lain, Tiongkok memiliki ambisi untuk terus memperluas pengaruhnya di dunia, tak terkecuali Asia. Dengan permasalahan yang dimiliki Indonesia dari 1990-an yakni permasalahan infrastruktur yang tidak memadai dan jumlahnya sangat minim, dilihat sebagai potensi bagi Tiongkok untuk saling melakukan kerja sama yang menguntungkan kedua belah pihak. Penelitian ini ditujukan untuk mengungkapkan dan memahami kerja sama Indonesia-Tiongkok dalam membangun infrastruktur di Indonesia. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dan menggunakan konsep kerja sama internasional.  Ada tiga platform kerja sama kedua negara, yaitu Deklarasi Kemitraan Strategis, Kemitraan Strategis Komprehensif, hingga Belt Road Initiative sepanjang tahun 2010-2018. Ketiga wadah kerja sama ini menghasilkan banyak infrastruktur baru di Indonesia seperti Tol Cisumdawu, Tol Solo-Kertosono, Tol Medan-Kualanamu-Tebing Tinggi, Jembatan Suramadu, dan Proyek Kereta Api Cepat Jakarta-Bandung. Namun, dengan bertambahnya infrastruktur ini, masalah lain seperti banjir secara tidak langsung memunculkan efek samping dari permasalahan infrastruktur.
Flujos migratorios africanos en Costa Rica (2014-2020)
Authors: Navarro Alvarado Guillermo Antonio
Published: September 2022

El siguiente artículo analiza las dimensiones cuantitativas de los flujos migratorios africanos en Costa Rica, su composición, formas de representación y condiciones de posibilidad entre 2014 y 2020. Se examinan fuentes secundarias y datos anuales de la Dirección General de Migración y Extranjería de Costa Rica (DGME) y de los Centros de Atención Temporal para Personas Migrantes (CATEM). El artículo concluye que dichos flujos migratorios se definen por una amplia diversidad cultural de origen múltiple, caracterizados por la presencia migratoria de todas las subregiones africanas, con mayor migración proveniente del África central. Esta diversidad se ve limitada en su representación por el uso de categorías homogeneizantes como “extracontinental” y plantea la necesidad de estudios particularizados.
Out-of- Field Teaching: The Bane of Christian Religious Education in Senior High Schools
Authors: Owusu Martin , Mensah Eric
Published: September 2022

This study assessed the problem of out-of-field teaching in the Berekum Municipality of Ghana. The convergent parallel design premised on the mixed method approach was employed to collect data from 20 teachers who hold different degrees instead of Bachelor of Education in Religious Education and are teaching Christian Religious Studies in Senior High Schools in the Berekum Municipality. Questionnaire and observation protocols were used to gather data. The teachers were observed twice in their classrooms during delivery. Data was analysed through the computation of frequencies and percentages and narrative reporting of the field notes. Three areas were assessed namely their capacity to use appropriate instructional strategies, resources, as well as classroom management capabilities. It was found that teachers used teacher-cantered methods of teaching. Their teaching was dominated by the use of the lecture method.  Most of the teachers narrated bible stories whiles students listen without any interactions. Teachers failed to use appropriate instructional resources in the classroom. Most of them used textbooks and bibles. Students were made to read bible verses turn by turn whiles teachers explain the concepts to them. Their classroom management was good. Teachers attempted to motivate their students to answer the few questions that were asked during the evaluation of the lessons. It is recommended that the Ghana Education Service should organise in-service training for the teachers to sharpen their skills in teaching. Teachers are encouraged to do teacher education programmes and teacher recruitment should be based on professional qualifications.
PERMA Model and Mental Health Practice
Authors: Chisale Enipher , Phiri Fletcher M
Published: September 2022

In this paper, we reflect on how Positive Emotion and Meaning elements of Seligman’s PERMA Model were used in assisting Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) patient achieve own wellbeing during work placement.
Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a global public mental health disorder affecting more women than men. In the UK, it accounts for 5.9% of all mental health disorders and the number of people suffering from GAD continues rising. GAD contributes to negative economic and social impacts on individuals, families, communities, and the nation. Therefore, it is imperative that effective evidence-based interventions are used to enhance the wellbeing of those who suffer from this condition.
 
After using the intervention developed using Positive Emotion and Meaning elements of Seligman’s PERMA Model, the patient showed increased interest and participation in quizzes, pools, and TV watching. He also increased his time spending in communal areas chatting with his peers. He started advocating the activities he was engaged in as therapeutic and recommending them to other patients. He developed positive attitudes towards these activities in that he thought they were preventing him from being bored and from having ill thoughts which would have increased his anxiety levels.
 We concluded from these results that the use of Seligman PERMA Model’s elements of Positive Emotion and Meaning is useful in developing and implementing intervention that are effective in helping Generalised Anxiety Disorder patients achieve their wellbeing. We therefore recommend that Seligman PERMA model’s elements of Positive Emotion and Meaning should be considered when developing effective interventions aimed at helping GAD patients achieve their wellbeing.
Characteristics and Morphological Studies of Nd Doped Titanium Thin Film Coating on SS 316L by DC Sputtering
Authors: A. Anaee Rana , A. Abdullah Hiba
Published: September 2022

Nd doped Titanium coating was applied on stainless steel 316L by DC sputtering method to investigate the corrosion behavior in simulated body fluid at 37°C. The characterization of coated surface was done by XRD analysis that shows the incorporation of coating peaks within peaks of substrate (SS 316L), SEM/EDS also used to identify the structure and elemental composition of coating layer and the results indicated the formation of titanium carbide with neodymium particles which distributed on the titanium thin film and the EDS analysis showed the presence of Ti, Nd, O and high percent of C. AFM analysis indicated the increasing in surface roughness from 52.20 nm to 176.7 nm after coating with more valleys and peaks in two and three dimensions images, as well as more resistant for wear after coating from Abbott-Firestone results. The results of corrosion measurement showed the more positive corrosion potential for coated surface and decreasing in corrosion current density to obtain protection efficiency equal to 97.11% due to ability of the coating layer to isolate the substrate from corrosive environment.

Authors: Daood Salman Tabarek , Al-Samari Ahmed
Published: September 2022

This work presents an experimental study of an absorption refrigeration system (aqua-ammonia) using Internal combustion engine exhaust as a power source. The effect of the absorption refrigeration system on engine performance and exhaust emissions will be evaluated using the available exhaust gas energy. a generator model (TG3700) (with the exhaust pipe) has been tested with an absorption refrigeration system with the exhaust pipe. The generator was tested in four different cases according to the load (no-load, 25% load, 50% load, and load75%). The refrigerator reached different temperatures, depending on the load and the time the experiment was carried out. The availability of exhaust gas indicates that the cooling performance of a customized system can be greatly improved to save electricity usage and save cost as well. The results showed that the best case obtained was 75% load, because the temperature of the freezer decreased significantly, unlike in the rest of the cases, and it reached -13.5°C after it was 29.9°C, and this experiment was done at 75% load For 3 hours of operation.
