Authors: Febiyanti Widyantari , Nadlifatin Reny
Published: November 2024

Once city implements a smart city, the transformation that occurs not only impacts the city's infrastructure and operations, but also significantly influences individual interactions with public facilities and their consumption patterns. This literature review aims to identify changes in consumer behavior and daily activities after the implementation of smart city technology. The methodology used is PRISMA, with references published over the last decade. The research results show changes in various aspects, including mobility, energy efficiency, citizen engagement, environmental awareness, shopping experience, quality of life, education and information, business prospects, and response to the crisis. These findings show that smart city technology brings positive changes in the daily lives of city residents, which are influenced by the use of technology and the way it is implemented by the community. This research provides insight for policy makers and city managers to understand the broad impact of smart cities on community behavior.

Authors: Wicaksono Anggito Whiku , Rohman Arif Nur , Hartanto Anggit Dwi
Published: November 2024

The coffee industry has experienced rapid growth over the last decade. In this research, the content-based filtering approach is employed to suggest cafes by analyzing the similarity of different features or attributes. The degree of similarity is influenced by the similarity of item profiles between cafes. CW Coffee & Eatery had the highest similarity value of 0.4802 because it found 16 item profiles that were similar to Cosan Seturan. In contrast, Kelanaloka has a very low similarity value of 0.1844, because only 7 similar item profiles were identified when compared. This research shows that content-based filtering methods can be effectively applied to cafe recommendation systems.

Authors: Singgalen Yerik Afrianto
Published: November 2024

This research urgently addresses the need to understand and manage viewer interactions with culturally significant video content, particularly the Rambu Solo ritual. By integrating the Digital Content Reviews and Analysis Framework with sentiment classification performance, toxicity score evaluation, and content analysis, the study systematically analyzed 21,562 posts across four videos, revealing critical themes related to cultural preservation and tourism impact that shaped viewer perceptions. Sentiment and toxicity evaluations of 15,762 posts showed an average toxicity score of 0.068, with a peak of 0.85174. Sentiment classification, using algorithms like SVM, k-NN, NBC, and DT, highlighted the superior performance of SVM enhanced by SMOTE, with an accuracy of 81.97%. However, the study identified limitations in automated sentiment analysis tools, noting that they may not fully capture the complexities of human expression. This research recommends incorporating advanced natural language processing techniques and multimodal analysis within the framework. This comprehensive methodology offers essential insights into the intersection of culture, tourism, and digital media, emphasizing the importance of creating and managing content that respects and promotes cultural heritage in the digital age. The findings are crucial for developing more effective strategies for digital content creation and community engagement, ensuring that cultural narratives are presented thoughtfully and respectfully to global audiences.
Manhattan Metric Technique in K-Means Clustering for Data Grouping
Authors: Sari Mila , Armansyah Armansyah
Published: November 2024

Clustering can be defined as a method commonly applied in data mining to group objects into clusters. Clusters consist of data objects that are similar to each other in a group but different from objects in other clusters. In this study, the data used is the data of KIP scholarship recipients for the 2016-2023 period. Various clustering metric measurement techniques have been frequently used by researchers, especially those focusing on distance and similarity metrics, such as Euclidean Distance, Manhattan, and Minkowski. In general, K-Means is an unsupervised learning method used in the clustering process to group data based on similarity. The elbow method is used to determine the optimal number of clusters, so that the clustering results obtained can be maximized to achieve better results. This study aims to analyze the use of Manhattan technique in K-Means clustering for data grouping. The research problem is how to analyze the Manhattan metric technique in K-Means clustering for effective data grouping. Applying the K-Means method shows that the existing data is successfully divided into four specified clusters. After determining the correct number of clusters, the K-Means method is used to sort the data in the dataset. From 3172 data, the final results obtained cluster 0 as many as 774 data, cluster 1 as many as 417 data, cluster 2 as many as 1244 data, and cluster 3 as many as 737 data. The results of the clustering process obtained a davies-bouldin index value of 1.4568.
Implementing carbon accounting frameworks in U.S. SMEs: A pathway to sustainable finance and global competitiveness
Authors: Feyisayo Michael Ogunyemi  , Akinwale Omowumi Ishola
Published: November 2024

This paper explores the implementation of carbon accounting frameworks within small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the United States, examining its potential to drive sustainable finance and enhance global competitiveness. Given the rising regulatory pressures and market demands for transparent environmental practices, carbon accounting provides SMEs a structured approach to measure, manage, and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Through a comprehensive analysis, we identify the primary challenges SMEs face in adopting carbon accounting, including limited financial resources, lack of technical expertise, and unclear reporting standards. The study also evaluates the potential benefits, such as improved access to green financing, heightened operational efficiency, and stronger market positioning through alignment with sustainability goals. We propose a framework that prioritizes simplicity and cost-effectiveness, enabling U.S. SMEs to initiate carbon accounting practices with available resources and existing capabilities. Furthermore, we highlight the role of policy support, technological advancements, and industry collaborations in facilitating widespread adoption. Ultimately, this paper underscores the significance of carbon accounting as a strategic tool, equipping U.S. SMEs with the transparency and accountability needed to thrive in an evolving global marketplace that increasingly values sustainability.

Authors: Jemi Renhart , Syafii Wasrin , Febrianto Fauzi , Hanafi Muhammad
Published: November 2024

The aim of the study was to analyze the content of pelawan wood extractive substances (Tristaniopsis whiteana (Griff)) and to test it with the fungi Schizophyllum commune Fr and Pleurotus ostreatus. Pelawan heartwood powder was macerated with methanol. Then fractionated in stages with n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and butanol. The resulting extract was then tested with S. commune and P. ostreatus fungi. The most active fraction was isolated using column chromatography with a gradient system, the eluent was methanol:chloroform. Sub-fractions were then tested for fungi to determine the most active sub-fractions, and the most active sub-fractions were then analyzed by 1H NMR. The results showed that the extractive content of pelawan wood was most soluble in chloroform. All extract fractions contain potential as anti-fungal. .The chloroform fraction was very active compared to the other fractions. Isolation of the chloroform fraction by column chromatography obtained 8 sub-fractions. All of these sub-fractions were able to inhibit the growth of S.commune and P.ostreatus with IC(50) = 54.55 - 64.69 mg/L and IC(50) = 54.17 - 64.44 mg/L respectively. PL.3 sub-fraction was the most active among the 8 sub-fractions. The results of 1H NMR analysis on the PL.3 subfraction were shown to be Heptanoic Acid compounds.

Published: November 2024

This study aims to analyze and compare the basic education systems in Indonesia and Finland with a focus on learning approaches, teaching methods, evaluation, learner engagement and technology utilization. The Finnish education system is known globally for its holistic approach that emphasizes character development, creativity and collaborative skills through project-based learning, as well as formative and continuous evaluation. On the other hand, the Indonesian education system is still dominated by a results-oriented approach that focuses on academic achievement through top-down teaching methods, with the teacher as the center and students as passive recipients of information. This study reveals that Finland has significant advantages in creating an inclusive learning environment that encourages active participation of learners, as well as in the integration of technology to support learning. In contrast, in Indonesia, learner engagement and the use of technology in the teaching-learning process is still limited, with the main focus on exam preparation and grade attainment. This research suggests that aspects such as equitable access to education, utilization of technology and more comprehensive evaluation methods in the Finnish education system can be an inspiration for Indonesia to develop a more adaptive basic education model that is relevant to the demands of 21st century education.
ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dan membandingkan sistem pendidikan dasar di Indonesia dan Finlandia dengan fokus pada pendekatan pembelajaran, metode pengajaran, evaluasi, keterlibatan peserta didik, serta pemanfaatan teknologi. Sistem pendidikan Finlandia dikenal secara global dengan pendekatan holistiknya yang mengedepankan pengembangan karakter, kreativitas, dan kemampuan kolaboratif melalui pembelajaran berbasis proyek, serta evaluasi yang bersifat formatif dan berkelanjutan. Di sisi lain, sistem pendidikan Indonesia masih dominan dengan pendekatan berorientasi hasil yang menitikberatkan pada capaian akademik melalui metode pengajaran yang bersifat top-down, dengan guru sebagai pusat dan siswa sebagai penerima informasi pasif. Kajian ini mengungkapkan bahwa Finlandia memiliki keunggulan signifikan dalam menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang inklusif dan mendorong partisipasi aktif peserta didik, serta dalam integrasi teknologi untuk mendukung pembelajaran. Sebaliknya, di Indonesia, keterlibatan peserta didik serta pemanfaatan teknologi dalam proses belajar-mengajar masih terbatas, dengan fokus utama pada persiapan ujian dan capaian nilai. Penelitian ini menyarankan bahwa aspek-aspek seperti kesetaraan akses pendidikan, pemanfaatan teknologi, dan metode evaluasi yang lebih komprehensif dalam sistem pendidikan Finlandia dapat menjadi inspirasi bagi Indonesia untuk mengembangkan model pendidikan dasar yang lebih adaptif dan relevan dengan tuntutan pendidikan abad ke-21.
Sources and trends of Black Carbon Aerosol in a Megacity of Nanjing, East China After the China Clean Action Plan and Three-Year Action Plan

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Black carbon (BC) is an essential component of particulate matter (PM) with a significant impact on climate change. Few studies have investigated the long-term changes in BC and the sources, particularly considering primary emissions of BC, which is crucial for developing effective mitigation strategies. Here, based on three-year observations (2019–2021), random forest (RF) algorithms were employed to reconstruct BC concentrations in Nanjing from 2014 to 2021. Source apportionment was conducted on the reconstructed data to investigate long-term trends of BC and its sources. The results showed that the three-year average BC concentration was 2.5±1.6 μg m-3, peaking in winter, with approximately 80 % attributed to liquid fuel combustion. Notably, the reconstructed time series revealed a significant decrease (p < 0.05) in BC levels over the eight-year period, primarily due to reduced emissions from liquid fuels. The comparison between two control polices periods (P1:2014–2017 and P2:2018–2021) indicate that BC concentrations decline more steeply during S2 since significant (p < 0.05) reduction in biomass burning. The seasonal analysis showed significant reductions (p < 0.05) in BC, BCliquid (black carbon from liquid fuel combustion) and BCsolid (black carbon from solid fuel combustion) during winter, with BCliquid accounting for 77 % of the reduction. Overall, emission reduction was the dominant factor in reducing BC levels, contributing between 62 % and 86 %, as revealed by Kolmogorov-Zurbenko (KZ) filter. However, during P2, meteorological conditions played a more significant role, especially in reducing BC and BCliquid, with an increase in their impact on BCsolid compared to P1. Our results demonstrated that target control measures for liquid fuel combustion are necessary, as liquid fuel combustion is a major driver of decreasing BC, especially in summer, while the influence of meteorological factors on BC variations cannot be overlooked.
Thermodynamically admissible derivation of Biot's poroelastic equations and Gassmann's equations from conservation laws
Authors: Alkhimenkov Yury , Podladchikov Yury Y.
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Gassmann's equations, formulated several decades ago, remain a cornerstone in geophysics due to their perceived exactness. However, a concise and rigorous derivation rooted in thermodynamic principles and conservation laws has been missing from the literature. Additionally, recent studies have pointed out potential logical inconsistencies in the original formulation. This paper introduces a derivation of Gassmann’s equations, anchored in fundamental conservation laws and constitutive relations, ensuring their thermodynamic consistency. Alongside this, we extend the discussion to include Biot's poroelastic equations, which are widely used to describe the coupled behavior of fluid-saturated porous media under mechanical deformation. By demonstrating that Gassmann's equations are a specific case within the broader framework of Biot’s theory, we further validate their relevance and applicability in geophysical contexts. Given the numerous independent rederivations and numerical verifications of these equations for diverse pore geometries, we affirm their robustness, provided the underlying assumptions are respected. To facilitate reproducibility and further exploration, symbolic Maple routines are provided for the derivations presented in this study.
Learning landscape features from streamflow with autoencoders
Authors: Bassi Alberto , Höge Marvin , Mira Antonietta , Fenicia Fabrizio , Albert Carlo
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Recent successes with machine learning (ML) models in catchment hydrology have highlighted their ability to extract crucial information from catchment properties pertinent to the rainfall–runoff relationship. In this study, we aim to identify a minimal set of catchment signatures in streamflow that, when combined with meteorological drivers, enable an accurate reconstruction of the entire streamflow time series. To achieve this, we utilize an explicit noise-conditional autoencoder (ENCA), which, assuming an optimal architecture, separates the influences of meteorological drivers and catchment properties on streamflow. The ENCA architecture feeds meteorological forcing and climate attributes into the decoder in order to incentivize the encoder to only learn features that are related to landscape properties minimally related to climate. By isolating the effect of meteorology, these hydrological features can thus be interpreted as landscape fingerprints. The optimal number of features is found by means of an intrinsic dimension estimator. We train our model on the hydro-meteorological time series data of 568 catchments of the continental United States from the Catchment Attributes and Meteorology for Large-sample Studies (CAMELS) dataset. We compare the reconstruction accuracy with models that take as input a subset of static catchment attributes (both climate and landscape attributes) along with meteorological forcing variables. Our results suggest that available landscape attributes can be summarized by only two relevant learnt features (or signatures), while at least a third one is needed for about a dozen difficult-to-predict catchments in the central United States, which is mainly characterized by a high aridity index. The principal components of the learnt features strongly correlate with the baseflow index and aridity indicators, which is consistent with the idea that these indicators capture the variability of catchment hydrological responses. The correlation analysis further indicates that soil-related and vegetation attributes are of importance.
A multi-objective Economic Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller for Power and Platform Motion on Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
Authors: Pustina Luca , Biral Francesco , Bertolazzi Enrico , Serafini Jacopo
Published: November 2024

Abstract. A main target of the wind energy industry is the reduction of the Levelized Cost of Energy, especially for the emerging sector of floating turbines. An Economic Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller is developed to maximise power and reduce longitudinal motion, increasing revenues, and reducing capital and operating expenses. A novel comprehensive nonlinear Reduced Order Model of floating turbines is developed to predict platform motion, rotor thrust, aerodynamic power, and generator temperature. A grey-box approach and a black-box approach to platform modelling have been successfully vali dated and compared, identifying pros and cons. Then, the model is used in a constrained optimisation problem that computes the control action. The objectives are maximising aerodynamic power and reducing longitudinal nacelle velocity under realistic constraints (including bounds on rotor thrust, generator temperature, and platform velocities). The controller performance and robustness are assessed using a wide set of realistic wind and sea state load cases. Significant higher power production and a lower longitudinal platform motion concerning the standard NREL reference controller are achieved by adopting the multi-objective ENMPC. Finally, considering the difficulty in predicting the sea diffraction forces and the incoming wind, the performances are positively verified in the absence of that information.

Authors: Szachnitowski Zbigniew
Published: November 2024

Niniejszy artykuł ma na celu zapoznanie czytelników z jedną z technologii biometrycznych – rozpoznawaniem tęczówki oka, o którą w przyszłości mogą być uzupełnione metody automatycznej identyfikacji osób wykorzystywane w kryminalistyce. Metodyka analizy tęczówki oka człowieka została pierwotnie opracowana na potrzeby systemów kontroli dostępu. Teraz, po rozwiązaniu wielu problemów technicznych, trwają prace nad wdrożeniem jej także do wielu różnych obszarów działalności człowieka związanych z bezpieczeństwem, gdzie naukowcy poszukują niezawodnego sposobu ustalania tożsamości osób na podstawie ich cech fizycznych, i gdzie standardem jest zerowa stopa tolerancji błędu. Niniejsze opracowanie jest streszczeniem współczesnej wiedzy na temat teoretycznych możliwości wykorzystania wspomnianej biometryki także w kryminalistyce z podaniem przykładów praktycznego zastosowania tej technologii, w innych krajach używanej w sektorze bezpieczeństwa i automatycznych systemach identyfikacji biometrycznej. Na zakończenie warto podkreślić fakt, że dotychczasowe wyniki i doświadczenia w wykorzystaniu tęczówki oka do uwierzytelniania wybranych danych biometrycznych człowieka stawiają ją na czele dostępnych metod identyfikacyjnych, obok badań DNA i linii papilarnych palców.
Działalność Polskiego Towarzystwa Kryminalistycznego w czterdziestolecie
Authors: Kulicki Mariusz
Published: November 2024

W artykule przedstawiono historię i działalność Polskiego Towarzystwa Kryminalistycznego, które w 2013 r. obchodziło jubileusz 40 – lecia istnienia. Idea powołania naukowego stowarzyszenia zajmującego się szeroko rozumianą problematyką kryminalistyczną wynikała z potrzeby integrowania krajowych środowisk zainteresowanych wymianą wiedzy i doświadczeń praktycznych przydatnych w zapobieganiu przestępczości i w jej zwalczaniu metodami naukowymi. Koncepcja utworzenia Polskiego Towarzystwa Kryminalistycznego wysunięta została po raz pierwszy w grudniu 1971 r. przez ówczesnego doktora habilitowanego, a obecnie profesora, Brunona Hołysta, została ostatecznie zrealizowana 24 stycznia 1973 r., kiedy to w siedzibie Instytutu Ekspertyz Sądowych w Krakowie odbyła się konferencja, która przekształciła się w zebranie założycielskie Polskiego Towarzystwa Kryminalistycznego. Artykuł przedstawia główne cele i kierunki działania oraz najważniejsze dokonania PTK a także osoby, który wniosły największy wkład w rozwój Stowarzyszenia.
Nowe kierunki badań dokumentów w projektach rozwojowych
Authors: Goc Mieczysław , Tomaszewski Tadeusz
Published: November 2024

W ostatnich latach znacznie rozwinęła się współpraca Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego i Polskiego Towarzystwa Kryminalistycznego. Wyrazem tej współpracy jest również wspólna organizacja konferencji z okazji 40 – lecia PTK pn. „Kryminalistyka – Nauka – Praktyka”. Polskie Towarzystwo Kryminalistyczne i Wydział Prawa UW wydają wspólnie periodyk naukowy pt. „Problemy Współczesnej Kryminalistyki”. Najbardziej wymiernym efektem współdziałania obu instytucji jest jednak realizacja projektów rozwojowych w ramach utworzonego w tym celu konsorcjum. Od 2009 r. wspólnie zrealizowano i zakończono dwa projekty finansowane przez Narodowe Centrum Badań i Rozwoju. Oba projekty dotyczyły problematyki badań dokumentów. Pierwszych z nich umożliwił opracowanie i wdrożenie do praktyki eksperckiej technik komputerowych wspomagających ekspertyzę pismoznawczą, drugi natomiast, zakończony w 2012 roku, podjął trudne z kryminalistycznego punktu widzenia zagadnienie chronologii zapisów wykonanych różnymi technikami na podłożu papierowym.
Podmiot czynności oględzinowych ze stanowiska procedury karnej i kryminalistyki
Authors: Kegel Zdzisław
Published: November 2024

Oględziny miejsca zdarzenia są najbardziej złożoną formą oględzin. Dlatego też tak duże znaczenie mają kwalifikacje osób przeprowadzających tę czynność. Polska ustawa karno-procesowa jedynie ogólnikowo reguluje kwestie dotyczące podmiotu czynności oględzinowych i to jedynie w odniesieniu do oględzin ciała i zwłok. Pozostałe kwestie, bardzo istotne z punktu widzenia procesowego ustawodawca pozostawia do uregulowania doktrynie. W artykule omówiono ten problem, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem podmiotu kierującego oględzinami.
Przeciwko kryminalistycznej identyfikacji indywidualnej
Authors: Konieczny Jerzy
Published: November 2024

Ostatnie, niewątpliwie bardzo trudne dla kryminalistyki lata, przyniosły m.in. zdecydowaną krytykę tradycyjnych koncepcji identyfikacji kryminalistycznej, w szczególności tzw. identyfikacji indywidualnej. Wskazuje się na brak podstaw naukowych dla stosowania pojęcia indywidualności, a nawet na zasadniczą niemożność uzasadnienia tezy o jej zachodzeniu, jeśli ma ona być czymś więcej niż twierdzeniem metafizycznym lub swoistą religią, użyteczną tylko retorycznie. Postulowana jest pilna rezygnacja z ekspertyz wykorzystujących badania porównawcze w obecnym kształcie. Okazuje się przy tym, że odejście od tradycyjnych form opiniowania nie tylko nie zmniejsza roli badań kryminalistycznych na użytek procedur prawnych, ale przeciwnie, rozszerza ją, wprowadza element realizmu i uczciwości metodologicznej do dowodzenia sądowego, przede wszystkim jednak jest niebywale silnym bodźcem do rozwoju naszej nauki.
Reguły taktyki kryminalistycznej a normy prawa dowodowego
Authors: Taracha Adam
Published: November 2024

Autor omawia związki między regułami taktyki kryminalistycznej a normami prawa dowodowego – ukazując wzajemne zależności, ale także odrębności występujące w obu tych obszarach. Relacja taktyka kryminalistyczna – normy prawa dowodowego nie ogranicza się tylko do przepisów normujących przeprowadzanie konkretnych czynności dowodowych. Także pozostałe przepisy kodeksu postępowania karnego normujące zasady i prze-bieg postępowania dowodowego mają bezpośredni wpływ na kształtowanie się reguł taktyki kryminalistycznej. Autor wskazuje na doniosłe zmiany jakie w tych relacjach nastąpią po nowelizacji kodeksu postępowania karnego, która pozwoli na tzw. „prywatne gromadzenie dowodów”.

Tematem artykułu są przejawy zachowań, które nakazują postawić pytanie: czy to jeszcze kryminalistyka, czy też już jej manowce. W obszarze techniki kryminalistycznej owe zachowania rodzi postępująca komercjalizacja opiniowania; wynikająca również z uznawania opiniowania, wcześniej będącego odpłatną służbą procesową, za działalność gospodarczą. Na skutek tego w sposób niekontrolowany pojawiły się rzesze kiepskich biegłych, absolwentów dziwnych szkoleń niekiedy nawet nazywanych studiami podyplomowymi; wpisujących się na listy prowadzone w wielu okręgach. To oni – jako tańsi - w znacznej mierze obsługują postępowania przygotowawcze. W sądach, zwłaszcza okręgowych na szczęście jeszcze nie ma takiej dominacji.

Celem głównym opracowania jest spojrzenie z boku na współczesne regulacje normatywne odnoszące się do problematyki badań śladów zapachowych ludzi. Przedmiotem opracowania jest również próba skonfrontowania skonstruowanych kiedyś planów rozwoju dyscypliny z obecną rzeczywistością. W analizie oparto się na dokumentach przygotowanych przez Centralne Laboratorium Kryminalistyczne Policji, regulujących procesy zabezpieczania materiału dowodowego, pobierania materiałów porównawczego, na procesie badawczym kończąc. Nie można zapominać przecież, iż niebagatelną rolę w kształtowaniu osmologii odegrały poważne ośrodki naukowe, w tym chociażby Wydział Prawa i Administracji Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego oraz Katedra Kryminalistyki i Bezpieczeństwa Publicznego Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego, w ramach których możliwe było nadanie procesowego kształtu dyscyplinie będącej przedmiotem opracowania, czy chociażby Instytut Genetyki i Hodowli Zwierząt Polskiej Akademii Nauk, w ramach którego przeprowadzono szereg prac o charakterze stricte eksperymentalnym. W opracowaniu postawiono wiele pytań o dalsze ukształtowanie tej dziedziny.
Początki polskiego systemu organów ścigania i kryminalistyki

Published: November 2024

Tekst przedstawia historię polskiego wymiaru sprawiedliwości i organów ścigania. Autor szczegółowo opisuje system wymiaru sprawiedliwości stworzony na ziemiach polskich po I Wojnie Światowej, który odzwierciedlał nowoczesną (ówczesną) myśl prawniczą. Autor za cel postawił sobie nakreślenie instytucji i rozwiązań historycznych, z których korzy-stają kolejne pokolenia prawników. Zwraca uwagę na fakt, iż wiele rozważań z zakresu taktyki i techniki kryminalistycznej pozostaje aktualnych do dnia dzisiejszego, mimo rozwoju nauki, albowiem w latach międzywojennych powstały zręby nowoczesnej polskiej kryminalistyki. Zdaniem autora, znajomość historii kryminalistyki jest z jednej strony uznaniem zasług jej pionierów, z drugiej zaś strony pozwoli zrozumieć jak olbrzymi jest rozwój polskiej kryminalistyki od czasu stosowania mikroskopu do czasów stosowania komputerów. Nie byłoby to jednak możliwe bez wysiłku teoretyków i praktyków polskiej kryminalistyki okresu międzywojennego.

Prosodic Variation in Particle Constructions in Three Norwegian Dialect Areas
Authors: Tengesdal Eirik , Larsson Ida , Lundquist Björn
Published: November 2024

Particle verbs in Norwegian are often realized as one maximal prosodic word with main stress either on the verb or the particle, but sometimes the verb and the particle project their own maximal prosodic words. This article contains a prosodic analysis of particle verbs in the Nordic Dialect Corpus (Johannessen et al. 2009) from three dialect areas: Finnmark, Trøndelag and Buskerud. In all three areas there is a variation between at least four different accent realizations. A maximal prosodic word with the main stress on the verb, so-called compound accent, is the most common realization of particle verbs in the material, but this is also the most restricted realization; it is not possible when an accented word intervenes between verb and particle, and it requires a verb–particle structure. In addition, there are several probabilistic factors the affect the likelihood of a certain prosodic realization. Syntactic traits like surface constituency are ignored by the phonological grammar.

Published: November 2024

This study aims at exploring the effect of four elements of an integrated marketing mix. The mix consists of both elements of the 4Ps and SIVA marketing models. These elements are product-solution, promotion-information, place-access, and price-value. A questionnaire was used to collect the required data from a sample of retailing market customers in Saudi Arabia. The total number of the questionnaires used in data analysis was 378. The study found that product-solution and place-access from customers’ perspective had significant effects on customer retention. On the other hand, price-value had a negative significant effect on customer retention, while promotion-information had no effect on customer retention. Hence, companies are called for considering products as solutions, promotion as a source of information for customers, place as an access point for such a solution, and price must be appropriate to the value that the customer gets.
The influence of human capital, social capital, and digital technology on the export performance of SMEs
Authors: Susilo Dominicus Djoko Budi
Published: November 2024

The export development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia is still very low, resulting in their contribution to national exports being very small as well. Government bodies and relevant stakeholders are actively pursuing initiatives to enhance the export performance of SMEs. These efforts include improving the quality of human and social capital and promoting the integration of digital technology into SME operations. This examination evaluates the impact of human capital (HC), social capital (SC), and the utilization of digital technology on the export performance of SMEs. The investigation adopted a survey approach on all export-oriented SMEs listed on the Bank Indonesia website. Data was obtained through the distribution of questionnaires to 614 SMEs. Data analysis was conducted using PLS SEM. The research findings indicate that human capital, social capital, and digital technology have a positive and significant influence on the export performance of SMEs in Indonesia.
Evidence of the ripple effect across the Czech housing market
Authors: Slaný Martin , Emmer Filip
Published: November 2024

Czech regional housing markets have exhibited significant price co-movements over the last two decades. While part of this dynamic may be explained by traditional housing market fundamentals, some regions appear to be influenced by other variables. One possible explanation lies in the ripple effect, a phenomenon where house price shocks in one region influence prices in others. This study examines possible occurrence of the ripple effect using Toda-Yamamoto Granger causality. Results indicate statistically significant occurrence of lead-lag effect in eight out of 13 regions. Such price interconnectivity might be important factor for policymakers as study suggests that regional submarkets are not isolated and should be approached on macro level.

Political Culture in the Age of Digitalization: New Research Tools
Authors: Tsygvintsev Igor
Published: November 2024

The article highlights how digitalization has affected political culture and how to explore it. It is proved that the classical methods of analysis, which were revolutionary and effective for political science of the 20th century, lose their explanatory capabilities due to the huge amounts of information, the speed of its dissemination and the change of channels and ways of communication, the transition of subjects to cyberspace. The possibilities of new methods of big data analysis are substantiated, social networks and digital texts, which provide unique opportunities for studying political processes in real time and on a wide sample. Such methods as Big Data analysis, social network analysis, automated content analysis and ethnography of digital communities are proposed for use. The advantages (speed and scale, accuracy and detail, automation, new data sources, visualizability, multidisciplinarity) and disadvantages (ethical issues, lack of open data, limited access to data, imperfection of language models and automatic analysis tools for the Ukrainian language) of methods for studying political culture at the present stage are analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the problems caused by digitalization, which should be taken into account when interpreting research results: the problem of representativeness of data, access to data on private platforms, restrictions on private companies, data filtering, algorithmic influences, shadow data and non-representativeness due to bias, which will manifest themselves, in particular, in the use of the Western canon of perception and analysis of political culture and ignoring the approaches of the East, not taking into account their penetration into the spheres the life of Europe and the West. The significant potential and functionality of the analyzed methods for improving the study of political culture are proved and the prospects for future scientific research in this aspect are formulated.

Introduction: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the third most prevalent endocrine disorder and is primarily caused by parathyroid adenomas. Giant parathyroid adenoma (GPA), defined as an adenoma weighing over 3.5 g and larger than 2 cm, is a rare entity.

Case Report: This report presents a case of a 70-year-old female from Jazan, Saudi Arabia, diagnosed with GPA and PHPT. The patient exhibited high serum calcium levels and a palpable neck mass, prompting further investigations. Imaging and laboratory findings confirmed the diagnosis, leading to successful surgical removal of the adenoma.

Conclusion: Postoperatively, the patient’s condition improved significantly, highlighting the importance of considering GPA in the differential diagnosis of neck masses.

Published: November 2024

Autism is a serious developmental disorder, often characterized by communication and social interaction difficulties and tantrum behavior. Autistic children often exhibit tantrum behavior, which is an emotional outburst that is difficult to control, such as crying, screaming, hitting, and even hurting themselves or others. This research aims to implement the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) method with the help of picture cards to handle tantrum behavior in autistic children at the Bina Autis Mandiri Foundation in Palembang. This research method uses a qualitative approach with the type of field research and the subjects in this research were 7 people consisting of (three autistic children, three parents, and one therapist). The research results show that the implementation of the Applied Behavior Analysis method goes through four stages, namely assessment, program preparation, implementation and evaluation. Implementation of the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) method provides a slight improvement for one child but is less effective for other children. The conclusion of this research is that the implementation of the ABA method with the help of picture cards has not been completely successful, indicating the need to adjust therapy according to the individual needs of autistic children.

With the rapid advancements in Information and Communication Technology (ICT), ensuring robust information security has become crucial, particularly in network access control for dynamic and mobile networks. This research focuses on implementing and evaluating the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) model alongside the 802.1X protocol to enhance network security across wired and wireless environments. We assess various Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) methods, leveraging Cisco equipment and the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE), to test their effectiveness in maintaining secure and efficient access. A range of authentication approaches, including EAP-MD5, EAP-TTLS, and PEAP, are applied and compared based on their performance in terms of authentication speed, security level, and implementation complexity. Evaluations of packet capture and statistical analysis offer comprehensive insights into how well each technique performs in a range of network configurations. The purpose of these findings is to assist network administrators in choosing the best EAP techniques based on the security needs and network types.
Tears at School: Affective Encounters, Feminist Pedagogical Spaces, and the Judy Chicago Office
Authors: Condit-Summerson Maggie-Rose
Published: November 2024

Affective experiences are relational, circulating between bodies and matter, charging particular environments with lingering emotional resonance. Reflecting on an affective encounter I experienced with a feminist mentor in a space called the Judy Chicago office, which manifested in tears, my inquiry explores how pedagogical environments might come to embody a feminist ethics foregrounded in feltness and care. I conceptualize the co-creation of feminist pedagogical spaces as practices of feminist worlding. Additionally, I share insights emerging from participatory inquiry incorporating augmented reality (AR), Wo/Manhouse Stories: Womanhouse 1972 to Wo/Manhouse 2022. I discuss how the approaches set into motion through the participatory inquiry foster care-centered feminist worlding practices, which are necessary to disrupt the circulation of dominant patriarchal norms in neoliberal institutional spaces.
Challenging Cultural Appropriation and Neocolonialism in Urban Outfitters
Authors: Aljameel Fouz
Published: November 2024

Cultural appropriation—a complex convergence of capitalist, racist, and colonial structures—is embedded in popular brands such as Urban Outfitters, a U.S.-based multinational lifestyle retail corporation. Through an innovative blend of participatory visual research, augmented reality (AR) technology, and theoretical frameworks informed by intersectional feminism and postcolonial theory, I expose cultural appropriation by Urban Outfitters in the rebranding of the Palestinian scarf and the unauthorized use of the Navajo Nation tribe's name and design. Concerning intersectionality, belonging, objectification, and neocolonialism, the study reveals university complicity in cultural appropriation intertwined with systemic inequalities. The essay culminates with a call to action, advocating for the broader application of participatory visual research and AR technology to challenge social injustices, thereby enriching the discourse on cultural appreciation, equity, and justice.
Male Gaze: Augmented Reality Feminist Intervention in a Patriarchal Space
Authors: Dory Shawna
Published: November 2024

My participatory visual inquiry focuses on a feminist augmented reality (AR) intervention in a patriarchal space, a university town tavern decorated with woman-animal hybrid works of art that embody the male gaze and the objectification/commodification of women's bodies within a culture of normalized gender-based/sexual violence. I introduce how my intervention began with an affective encounter, which stoked my feminist consciousness, leading to a “feminist killjoy” impulse and learning of other tavern goers’ interpretations of the art. Additionally, I discuss how my re-invention of the paintings, which involved layering tavern patrons’ audio commentary over the images using AR, offers opportunities for feminist intervention by inviting feminist solidarity in a patriarchal space.
Research on the Application of Constructivism in Children's Drama Education
Authors: Hu Bozi
Published: November 2024

Children's drama teaching plays an important role in children's cognitive development. This paper uses the observation method to study Chinese children's drama education, which attaches importance to the presentation of performance results but neglects the cultivation of children's creative ability. Therefore, based on the constructivism viewpoint, this paper puts forward the optimization strategy of children's drama education. This article chooses The Foolish Old Man, Who Removed the Mountains as the script material, and specifically discusses how to make children participate in learning and creation in the process of choosing plays and rehearsing plays.
