КОНКУРЕНЦИЯ НА РЫНКЕ ТРУДА АЗЕРБАЙДЖАНА
Authors: Фарид Набизаде Фарид Набизаде
Published: January 2024

Рынок труда Азербайджана в последние годы претерпел значительные трансформации, характеризующиеся динамичным взаимодействием экономических, демографических и технологических факторов. Переход страны от плановой экономики советской эпохи к рыночной экономике стимулировал многогранную конкуренцию на рынке труда.
Одним из примечательных аспектов этой конкуренции является диверсификация секторов экономики. Традиционно зависимый от нефти и газа, Азербайджан стремится снизить свою зависимость от этих ресурсов и способствовать росту в ненефтяных секторах, таких как сельское хозяйство, туризм и технологии. Этот сдвиг создал новые возможности трудоустройства и усилил конкуренцию за квалифицированных работников в различных отраслях.
Кроме того, демографические тенденции играют решающую роль в формировании динамики рынка труда. Молодое население Азербайджана в сочетании с растущей тенденцией урбанизации привело к увеличению рабочей силы. Этот демографический дивиденд открывает как возможности, так и проблемы, поскольку спрос на рабочие места растет, что требует стратегического подхода для приведения развития навыков в соответствие с потребностями рынка.
Технологические достижения еще больше стимулировали конкуренцию, требуя от работников адаптации к меняющейся ситуации в сфере занятости. Спрос на цифровые навыки вырос во всех отраслях, создавая конкурентную среду, в которой люди, оснащенные новейшими технологическими ноу-хау, имеют явное преимущество. Одновременно автоматизация и искусственный интеллект также повлияли на требования к должностям, что привело к трансформации набора востребованных навыков.
Правительственные инициативы и политика также формируют конкуренцию на рынке труда. Усилия по улучшению программ образования и профессиональной подготовки направлены на оснащение рабочей силы навыками, необходимыми для развивающегося рынка труда. Кроме того, политика, поощряющая предпринимательство и инновации, способствует созданию новых деловых предприятий, добавляя еще одно измерение конкуренции за таланты.
В заключение, рынок труда Азербайджана характеризуется сложным взаимодействием экономических, демографических и технологических факторов. Продолжающаяся диверсификация экономики, демографические тенденции, технологические достижения и государственная политика в совокупности способствуют созданию конкурентной среды, в которой отдельные лица и предприятия должны постоянно адаптироваться, чтобы процветать. Балансирование этой конкуренции с инклюзивной политикой будет иметь решающее значение для содействия устойчивому и справедливому экономическому росту в ближайшие годы.

Physiography of the Surface of the Moon
Authors: Beneš Konrád
Published: January 2024

In the present paper on the physiography of the Moon surface, the author describes the peculiarities of two main types of moon crust developed in the highlands and in the lowlands. The protosialic type of crust forms the original outer selenosphere. Its cover upon the surface of the Moon differs in thickness. This is especially important for the study of both opposite-lying polar areas. In some places the "protosial" is probably interrupted, and we must allow for manifestations of magmatic anatexis, assimilation, etc. The dusty layer of tuff origin occurs most probably on the Moon surface, however it may not be continuous and differs in thickness. The paper solves the problem of the origin of circular structures. At the same time a Czech selenological terminology is suggested. The origin of Mare Imbrium occured in several stages: 1) formation of large domatic structure, 2) breaking of the convex part and emanations of gas from the subcrustal basin, 3) breaking down of vault blocks and flooding of depressions with magmatic material, 4) congealation and gradual stabilization (Tab. 2a). The author also gives his opinion on the attempts at a geographical division of the visible part of Moon. He appreciates maps by R. Hackman and A. Mason dating from 1960. In his opinion it will be necessary to agree on some international criteria before we start working on the geography of the Moon, according to which physiographic districts and sections will be defined. Up to the present, also the question of the selenographic description of the so-called mare-ridges has been abandoned.
The shape of water
Authors: Sub Bertin Dong
Published: January 2024

There is little to do, he continues; "The water that descends on the slope in the basin - from which the spring comes out - comes from that gutter, which is upstream. The water just descends and it cannot trace a china or a tube "[...] If the river is visible water, exposed to the sky and the eyes of men, the gutter is Danube." [...] But who feeds the gutter, which hidden and ineffable river gods? Here the link fails, because the scientist believes in a rough gossip, which reports someone else's rumors. He tells that Maria Giuditta – who arrived first thanks to her long legs to look out the ground floor window – interrogated the old and grouch mistress. She found out how water comes to the gutter from a sink, which is constantly filled by a faucet that no one can close, connected to "a lead pipe - old as much as the house - which loses its way somewhere” (Magris, 1986).
New drivers of sustainable development in developing countries / Unlocking the energy saving potential in Albania’s residential sector
Authors: Cesari Silvia
Published: January 2024

In - and due to - the current economic and social condition, new innovation processes are happening in developing countries, ‘proving that scarcity of means can stimulate technical inventiveness’. (Galiano, 2014). This is what occurs when cities and the existing demanding conditions are considered strategic and potential resources for their occupants. Albania,
one of the fastest-growing countries in Europe before the global financial crisis, is making every effort to attain a competitive market economy and reach EU membership. Despite demonstrating significant economic growth in the last decade, the country’s development is constrained by an insecure power supply and obsolete energy infrastructure. One of the main challenges in ensuring a reliable and sustainable power sector is represented by electricity, whose production is completely dependent on hydropower generation.
Limita(c)tion – How to use the limit as a concept tool of sustainable development in Shkodra
Authors: Andrea  Giacobone Gian
Published: January 2024

Starting to the considerations made by the famous economist Serge Latouche about the meaning of limit, the article takes in exam the southwest part of the town of Shkodra, in particular the part which is located along the lower shore of the homonymous lake, in order
to create some own reflections around the concept of this important word. The idea is to understand the meaning of limit and its boundary and then produce many possibilities to discover and use them, to drag a border between what are the limitations and what are the possibilities of the selected area. For the French economist there are some different types of limit which are economical, geographical, political, cultural, ecological, moral and of knowledge and then we have to know what are those better for our situations and use them to improve the whole system that manages the urban development. Recently, Albania is experiencing a strong economic growth which is allowing a great overall development rather quickly. This factor allows the country to gain importance and competitiveness outside the national borders, but in the other side, it has to tackle the uncontrolled and confused urban growth which is producing informal urbanization, many infrastructure problems within the cities and incognizance of the environment preservation, in particular of the landscape. Indeed, the potential of the examined area is geographically limited by the disconnection from the main center of Shkodrä owing to the weak infrastructure of the territory, while his landscape is exposed to the urban informality derived by the political limits that are not strong enough to really control the edification in that area. The aim is to raise the border of the economic possibilities of the fragment, stimulating one of the most profitable activities of the zone, as the tourism, through the creation of new infrastructure connections and facilities around the villages. This chance can initialize the communication between the fragment and the center to facilitate the exchange flow among visitor and residents. To increase the value of the fragment, it’s also necessary rethink the mobility and its experience starting both from the ecological limits of the local ecosystem and from the laws of the general local plan, in order to preserve and promote a new sustainable development with a low impact multimodal mobility.
Toolkit design methodology / Architectural project by use of classification and taxonomies
Authors: Resta Giuseppe
Published: January 2024

The paper is focused on a methodology carried out to approach landscape and urban design, on the base of a codified process, during an international design workshop that took place in Shkodra. The fragment comprises the mouth of the Buna River, ranging from the Albanian part of the delta to the western side of the marsh. The even landscape changes drastically every year, and often more than once, in a waterbed with houses and stables apparently floating on it. Moreover, informality along the street and the coast spread unfinished buildings, reducing the draining capacity of the area and putting in danger those who decided to move there. Here we suggest a methodology built on a system of localized interventions. As Jan Neutelings pointed out, we need to find new metaphors to read those diffused cities that do not establish a recognizable relationship between the inside and outside, figure and ground, city and countryside, as they provide green spots, which contain built spots too. His metaphor of the patchwork, deflated the idea of a comprehensive large-scale design conducted by an isolated agent. We should not forget that Albania admitted the rules of the free market only during the 90s, at a mature stage of the European liberalism, causing an explosive run from state-owned lands to fragmented private properties. Then the main issue is the distance between the author (of the plan) and the user, and the way the latter can bend and transform certain rules according to his needs. The proposed design is a soft landscape infrastructure that analyzes the overlapping artificial and natural pattern striving to enhance the natural diversity of the area, though addressing natural and human threats. The overall process is intended as an architectural toolkit that gathers three steps up to the final strategy: the formation of an analytical tableau; the visualization of a new geography; the definition of the architectural toolkit.

Authors: Emanueli Luca , Grando Alberto , Lobosco Gianni
Published: January 2024

This article investigates the relationship between territory and infrastructure in order to offering new ideas for the
management and design of coastal landscapes. As a case study, are exposed the results of a project concerning the Venetian Litoranea Waterway, an old waterway that flows along the Adriatic venetian coast. The need for reactivate the waterway - now under-utilized and never fully completed – becomes an opportunity to study a broad-minded approach, based on the analysis of the of both the environmental and economic issue. The aim of the work is to provide a model able to face with the problems afflicting the entire coastal system and provide a valid alternative to the current seafront employment strategies. The concept of combining skills deriving from civil engineering, economics, and landscape architecture, is fundamental in order to studying a wide-ranging approach to the problems emerging from the analysis and the critical issues affecting the coast and the entire waterway system. This point of view permit to obtaining results usually not taking into account by ordinary planning. On the basis of the problems affecting the Adriatic coast under examination - such as coastal erosion, subsidence and saltwater intrusion - the project proposes a radical transformation of the reclamations area surrounding the waterway, towards a more resilient and less burdensome structure to manage.

Determinants of Leadership Style in Business School
Authors: Amborowati Agustin , Harsono Mugi
Published: January 2024

Leadership plays a central role in determining the direction, culture, and performance of an organization. In the context of globalization, an effective leadership style is becoming increasingly important, as leaders need to be able to face the various challenges facing organizations at the global level. Leadership style refers to the leader's methods and behaviors when directing, motivating, and managing others (Fonseca Da Costa Guterresa et al., 2020). A leader's style is shaped by a variety of factors, including personality, values, skills, and experience, and can have a significant impact on the effectiveness of their leadership. The research design used was in the form of a survey. The primary data source obtained in this study was carried out by distributing questionnaires directly to students.  Secondary data sources in this study are Human Resource Management Books and previous research journals related to the research topic, namely about Leadership Style. In this study, researchers will describe the Leadership Style possessed by students. Generation Z shows a strong preference for participatory, collaborative and technology-oriented leadership. Participatory leaders listen to and value team input, promote collaboration, and create an inclusive environment (Hassan et al., 2016). This research makes an important contribution to our understanding of Generation Z's preferences and leadership styles in the global economy. These results can assist organizations, leaders, and academics in developing more effective leadership strategies to guide and support future leaders.
Far from the threatening crowd: Generalisation of conditioned threat expectancy and fear in COVID-19 lockdown
Authors: Dymond Simon , Cameron Gemma , Zuj Daniel V. , Quigley Martyn
Published: January 2024

Fear and anxiety are rarely confined to specific stimuli or situations. In fear generalisation, there is a spread of fear responses elicited by physically dissimilar generalisation stimuli (GS) along a continuum between danger and safety. The current study investigated fear generalisation with a novel online task using COVID-19-relevant stimuli (i.e., busy or quiet shopping street/mall scenes) during pandemic lockdown restrictions in the United Kingdom. Participants (N = 50) first completed clinically relevant trait measures before commencing a habituation phase, where two conditioned stimuli (CSs; i.e., a busy or quiet high street/mall scene) were presented. Participants then underwent fear conditioning where one conditioned stimulus (CS+) was followed by an aversive unconditioned stimulus (US; a loud female scream accompanied by a facial photograph of a female displaying a fearful emotion) and another (CS-) was not. In a test phase, six generalisation stimuli were presented where the US was withheld, and participants provided threat expectancy and fear ratings for all stimuli. Following successful conditioning, fear generalization was observed for both threat expectancy and fear ratings. Trait worry partially predicted generalised threat expectancy and COVID-19 fear strongly predicted generalised fear. In conclusion, a generalisation gradient was evident using an online remote generalisation task with images of busy/quiet streets during the pandemic. Worry and fear of COVID-19 predicted fear generalisation.
Pure Literature Controversies before and after Liberation
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Song Myung Jin
Published: January 2024

This study examined the controversy over pure literature before and after liberation. Ideology was internalized by Japanese imperialism in the time before liberation. During this period, the pure literature debate was linked to the generational debate and was accomplished with the participation of Jin-oh Yoo, Dong-ri Kim, and others. However, owing to the limitation of being an extension of the latter, the former itself could not be greatly deepened or expanded. However, the concept of pure literature discussed by Yu Jin-oh and others is significant in that it inherited the humanism debate and is connected to the pure literature debate after liberation.
After liberation, the debate began amidst ideological conflict between the left and the right. Purity was divided into the logic of left- and right-wing literature, depending on whether purity was understood in relation to the situation of the times or as an attitude toward the literary spirit itself and toward literature itself. As it was developed based on the political logic, it was able to deepen and expand the discussion with the participation of many commentators. However, this debate failed to reach an agreement and ended in an emotional fight, which caused disappointment. The above discussion is significant in that it comprehensively considers the pure literature debate before and after liberation.

Clustering Datasaurus Dozen Using Bottleneck Distance, Wasserstein Distance (WD) and Persistence Landscapes
Authors: R.U. Gobithaasan  , Kirthana Devi Selvarajh  , Kenjiro T. Miura
Published: January 2024

Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is an emerging field of study that helps to obtain insights from the topological information of datasets. Motivated by the emergence of TDA, we applied Persistent Homology (PH), one of the tools commonly used to extract topological features to cluster the Datasaurus Dozen dataset. This dataset is ideal to show PH’s capability in clustering as it consists of twelve distinct point clouds (PC) that have identical mean values, standard deviation, and correlation values, yet produce dissimilar patterns. The methodology starts with normalizing Datasaurus Dozen, followed by computing H1 Persistence Diagrams (PD) for each dataset. Two types of PD distances are computed directly: Wasserstein Distance (WD) and Bottleneck Distance (BD) and represented as proximity matrix. We also vectorized H1 Persistence Diagrams to obtain the average of first five strips of Persistence Landscape (PL) and computed L2 distance to represent a proximity matrix. These three distance matrices are used to generate dendrograms by using Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC). Regardless of possessing similar descriptive statistics, PH accurately extracts the global and local geometric topological information, and clusters them accordingly. It is evident that for clustering based on global geometric information, BD is suitable and computably cheap, whereas for clustering based on local geometric information, WD and average PL vectors are suitable but may incur extra computation.

The energy management system (EMS) can be used to optimize renewable energy resources and to monitor and schedule household appliances to reduce energy cost and Peak-to-Average-Ratio (PAR). This paper presents a smart home EMS with renewable energy sources and energy storage systems and shows how to use/ sell electrical power from/to the main grid (MG). Detailed information about the electricity selling/buying operation and appliances schedule at each hour during the day are shown. The main objective of the system is to reduce the daily cost and PAR and maximize the user’s comfort. The system achieved a reduction in cost by scheduling the appliances and optimizing the renewable and stored energy. Based on the day ahead pricing of electricity and available renewable and stored energy, the appliances are scheduled. The mathematical models of each component in the system and the daily cost, PAR, and user’s comfort functions are built in MATLAB. All constraints of the system are considered. Multi-objective optimization with a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to solve this problem. The EMS with PV renewable energy source and battery energy storage is applied on smart home appliances (shiftable and non-shiftable). The efficiency of the scheduled appliances is measured by the electricity cost. The results show that the system helps to reduce the electricity cost and PAR.

INTRODUCTION. Impaired gait and balance after a stroke significantly affect patients' daily activities and quality of life. Robotic mechanotherapy and virtual reality technologies are actively studied and used to restore lower limb muscle strength, balance and gait pattern.
AIM. To assess the effectiveness and safety of rehabilitation using robotic mechanotherapy (exoskeleton) with functional electrical stimulation (FES) and virtual reality (VR) technology with plantar stimulation in the restoration of gait and balance disorders in patients in acute and early recovery periods of ischemic stroke.
MATERIAL AND METHODS. Men and women aged 39 to 75 with ischemic stroke in acute and early recovery periods with gait impairment and lower limb paresis from 0 to 4 MRC scores. The patients were randomized using the envelope method into 4 groups: Group 1 (33 people) — exoskeleton with FES, Group 2 (32 people) — combined application of robotic mechanotherapy with FES and VR with plantar stimulation, Group 3 (35 people) — VR with plantar stimulation, Control group (30 people) — conventional training.
RESULTS. Group 2 and 3 had significantly greater increases in muscle strength in the hip extensors, tibia flexors and flexors of the foot compared to the control group. Patients in the main groups also had a significant improvement in Tinetti Walking and balance Scale at follow-up. The analysis of the stabilometry results on the first and last day of the study revealed a decrease in the area of the statokinesiogram in the main groups both in the intragroup comparison and in the comparison with the control group.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION. Exoskeleton gait training with FES and exercises on a VR with plantar stimulation, as well as combined use of these techniques allowed to achieve better recovery of lower limb muscle strength, walking functions and balance in patients in acute and early rehabilitation periods of stroke. This is probably due to the large number of steps or their imitation performed by the patient during rehabilitation sessions, which leads to activation of neuroplasticity and better recovery. The study demonstrated the safety and efficacy of an exoskeleton interval training system that prevents the development of orthostatic hypotension in patients in the acute period of ischemic stroke.

INTRODUCTION. VDT (video display terminal or visual display terminal) is used, especially in ergonomic studies, for the computer display. When using a VDT, static posture raises muscle tension, which causes a variety of neuromuscular symptoms, most frequently in the upper body, including discomfort, numbness, loss of function, and other symptoms. The advent of the technological revolution has rendered modern computing and communication tools indispensable for both professional and recreational purposes. The companies have extended its market reach by introducing their computing products, specifically Video Display Terminals (VDTs), beyond the confines of traditional business settings to include personal laptops used in residential spaces such as bedrooms.
AIM. The study aimed to compare the effects of stabilization exercises vs traditional exercise on cervical range of motion and the Craniovertebral angle in VDT users with a forward head posture.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. Comparative study design with 26 participants, comprising both genders with forward head posture between the ages of 20 and 35. Following selection, subjects were randomly divided into two groups: Group A, which received stabilization exercises, consist of 12 subjects; Group B, with 14 subjects; the main outcome measures were cervical range of motion and Craniovertebral angle.
RESULTS. Group A shows statistically substantial improvement in all the outcomes. Group B also shows statistically significant improvement in selected cervical range of motion; however, the group did not improve the Craniovertebral angle and cervical rotations substantially.
CONCLUSION. The results of the current study showed that stabilizing exercises are superior to conventional training in reducing the craniovertebral angle and increasing cervical range of motion in visual display terminal users with a forward head posture.

INTRODUCTION. Integrating climatotherapy into health resort therapy for arterial hypertension in diverse landscapes has the potential to yield positive effects, if used in target groups and preventing the occurrence of meteopathic reactions, including a hypertensive crisis (HC). While the impact of natural healing factors on the human body has been previously studied, the utilization of modern mathematical approaches in developing HC models has enabled accurate predictions and timely prevention of HC during adverse weather periods.
AIM. To analyze publicly available meteorological data time series to construct a mathematical model for predicting high-risk situations of HC based on the influence of climatic factors on patients with arterial hypertension. This model would identify unfavorable periods for hypertensive patients staying in health resorts throughout the year, allowing for timely therapeutic and preventive measures to prevent HC during these periods.
MATERIALS AND METHODS. The study was conducted over a 22-month period, from January 1, 2019 to October 31, 2020, in Gelendzhik and Novorossiysk, renowned resort destinations located on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. These regions have a dry and subtropical climate. Meteorological data were obtained from Gelendzhik and Novorossiysk weather stations, and ambulance calls data were collected from Gelendzhik (12,268 calls) and Novorossiysk (12,226 calls), resulting in a total of 24,494 ambulance calls.
The model was calculated using the maximum likelihood method through nonlinear logit regression. Key factors for the model included the main indicators of climate1 and geomagnetic conditions2. The logistic regression method exhibited a sensitivity of 56.0 % and a specificity of 77.3 %, with an overall accuracy of 76.0 %.
RESULTS. According to the developed predictive model, the winter season has no more than 75.0 % of days associated with a low risk of hypertension, decreasing to 59.0 % in spring. However, the proportion increases to 89.0 % in summer and reaches 77.0 % in autumn. Model adequacy checks indicated a high degree of relevance, with Q (model quality) ranging between +0.64 and –0.117, and p 0.3.
CONCLUSION. The developed logistic regression models provide more accurate calculations of individual risks for developing complications of hypertension and offer the opportunity to formulate individual strategies for patients. These models contribute to the field of climatotherapy and enhance the understanding of the impact of climatic factors on hypertensive patients, facilitating targeted interventions and improved management of hypertensive crises.
