Aproximaciones teóricas y metodológicas en torno al comercio sexual con niños, niñas y adolescentes en Girardot, Cundinamarca
Authors: Olivar Rojas Andrés Francisco , Rojas Bonilla Yeimy Karina
Published: May 2020

Este ensayo, producto de la investigación documental titulada “Dinámicas del comercio sexual en niños, niñas y adolescentes en el municipio de Girardot, Cundinamarca, Colombia”, plantea la cuestión del comercio sexual con niños, niñas y adolescentes como un problema social que afecta a Colombia y a distintos países en los que el turismo es un sector relevante de la economía. En este artículo se propone una teorización sobre esta problemática en torno de tres categorías conceptuales: familia, sociedad de la información y cultura de consumo, las cuales determinan las dinámicas que promueven el ingreso de niños, niñas y adolescentes al mundo de la prostitución infantil. Así mismo, se detallan las disposiciones jurídicas existentes en Colombia, desde la Constitución Política hasta el Código Penal, pasando por diversas leyes y convenios internacionales legalmente vinculantes destinados a la protección de los niños, niñas y adolescentes, para evidenciar que el comercio sexual se manifiesta a pesar de la existencia de garantías legales. Por último, se plantea una aproximación metodológica de tipo cualitativo -que no se ha puesto en práctica-, la cual puede ser útil de cara a futuras investigaciones que deseen realizar indagaciones empíricas y corroborar las hipótesis a partir de las categorías aquí propuestas.
Teaching the learners with a migrant background – teachers’ perspectives
Authors: Pamuła-Behrens Małgorzata , Szymańska Marta
Published: May 2020

As a result of the growing number of migrants in Poland, schools accept increasing numbers of learners with a migrant background (immigrants and reimmigrants), and they are not always able to successfully help the newcomers in their integration. Therefore, it is necessary to undertake specific support activities. Related shortcomings result in many school failures among many migrants, their dropping out of schools and as a result gaining little if any qualifications. At the same time, the researchers indicated the role of teachers in the education of children with a migrant background. The level of their training and the quality of the support they can offer determines the success or lack thereof of their pupils.

In the article the researchers discussed a study (Stage 2 in particular) the purpose of which was to diagnose and analyse the needs of the education community in terms of migrant education and integration. The following question was the starting point: What do schools need to be able to better teach and integrate learners with a migrant background? The study of needs organised as a focus group gathered teachers teaching pupils with a migrant background with various levels of training, and a headmaster of a school attended by migrants. The analysis of the collected material indicated three areas where teachers need particular support: systemic organisation of accepting and educating learners with a migrant background, access to materials, and the ability to participate in additional training courses and acquire new competences.
Peri-literary communication games of high school students
Authors: Ślósarz Anna
Published: May 2020

Seven interviews with high school students were conducted in order to establish the relationship between their use of Internet resources and the level of their interpretation, communication and social skills. Respondents, who used the Internet as a source of information, comprehend literature factographically and its adaptations as distortions of the original texts. Their communication skills were poorly developed. They were passive in interpersonal contact. They made only superficial contact with the interviewer, in order to hide the way they really used Internet resources. They perceived the interview as a hierarchical relation, and were subordinated to the interviewer.

Students who posted texts on the Internet were able to get the interviewer engaged in the topic they were discussing. They created their own image and influenced the environment. They assumed role of a node in the network, limiting the influence of social hierarchy.

A small sample does not allow for generalization of findings. Nonetheless, it was found that students who posted texts on the Internet presented highly developed interpretation, communication and social skills.
“I remember when at school...” On the importance of autobiographical elements not only for their authors – the students of Polish studies
Authors: Łazarska Danuta
Published: May 2020

The author of the article begins with a discussion of how specialists in the field understand the term “autobiography” and what its role is. Then, she presents the results of an analysis of autobiographical elements present in texts by 136 students starting Polish studies. In analysing the collected works, she diagnoses the places and attitudes of students who referred to stories from their own school lives, their considerations about their teachers’ ways of perceiving pupils, and the purpose of such texts. She also indicates the roles of emotions and the recollections of the personal past in creating school memories, and developing various ways of thinking about pupils, teachers, and literature. In treating those texts as diagnoses of the problems of school and school Polish education, she discusses the importance of such observations for their authors, readers and for school and university education.
Pyramid Population Prediction using Age Structure Model
Authors: Widayani Heni , Nuraini Nuning , Triska Anita
Published: May 2020

Population composition in a country by sex and age-structure often illustrated through the Population Pyramid. In this study, an age-structure model will be constructed to predict the population pyramid shape in the coming year. It is assumed that changes in population are affected by natality and mortality number in each age group, ignoring migration rates. The proposed age structure model formulated as a first-order partial differential equation with the non-negative initial condition. The boundary condition is given by the number of births which is proportional to the number of women at childbearing age. Then, this age structure model implemented utilizing United Nations Data to predict population pyramids of Indonesia, Brazil, Japan, the USA, and Russia. The population pyramid prediction of the five countries shows different characteristics, according to whether it is a developing or developed country. The results of this study indicate that the age structure model can be used to predict the composition of the population in a country in the next few years. Indonesia is predicted to be the highest populated country in 2066, compared to the other four countries. This result can be used as a reference for the government to plan policies and strategies according to age groups to control population explosion in the future.
Analysis of the Breast Cancer Mortality Rate in Portugal Over a Decade: Spatiotemporal Clustering Analysis
Authors: Gomes Inês Afonso , Nunes Carla
Published: May 2020

Introduction: Breast cancer is the first cause of cancer-related death in Portuguese women. This study aimed to characterize female breast cancer mortality in Portugal in the period between 2002 and 2013, with a special focus on spatiotemporal patterns.Material and Methods: The breast cancer mortality rate was studied using descriptive analysis (unadjusted and age-adjusted), and spatiotemporal clustering analyses.Results: In 2002 – 2013 the breast cancer mortality rate was 28.47/100 000 inhabitants and the age-adjusted mortality rate was 19.46/100 000 inhabitants. In this period the Lisbon region (urban), Alentejo and Algarve (rural) presented higher breast cancer mortality rate, but Madeira (urban), Lisbon and Algarve had higher age-adjusted mortality rate. In the spatiotemporal analysis, the overall mortality rate showed an increasing trend of 1.218%/year, without spatial variations. Also, different patterns were detected in the < 50, 50 - 64 and ≥ 65 age-groups (+ 0.725%, - 1.781% and + 0.896%, respectively). One temporal (2004 – 2006) and one spatiotemporal cluster (North coast) presented significantly lower mortality rate than expected for the period and/or area (26.2 and 16.1/100 000 inhabitants, respectively). Conversely, two spatiotemporal clusters, located in the city of Lisbon (2002 – 2007) and in the Centre region (2008 – 2013), presented significantly higher breast cancer mortality rate than expected (48.6 and 34.9/100 000 inhabitants, relative risk: 1.74 and 1.26, respectively).Discussion: The annual female crude and adjusted breast cancer mortality rate matched previous publications. However the annual increase detected in the unadjusted rate clashes with the published literature. Overall, the presence of spatiotemporal clusters supports the uneven distribution of the breast cancer mortality reported previously in the different Portuguese regions.Conclusion: This study identified areas and trends of the female breast cancer mortality rate, showing high spatiotemporal variations that must support further detailed studies/interventions.

Apontamentos sobre a organização do criacionismo e do intelligent design nos EUA e no Brasil
Authors: Silva Hugo Rodrigues da
Published: May 2020

O crescimento das instituições religiosas, especialmente as de denominação cristã no Brasil e no mundo tem contribuído para a disseminação das interpretações religiosas sobre a origem do mundo e os fenômenos naturais e sociais. Nesse contexto a ciência como instrumento de compreensão do mundo perde espaço para as revelações míticas, presentes nas escrituras bíblicas. O criacionismo, como a principal interpretação cristã para a explicação sobre a origem do mundo tem se revigorado na disputa de terreno com a ciência, ao questionar as descobertas científicas, inspiradas na teoria da evolução biológica, eixo norteador das ciências naturais, apresentando alternativas pseudocientíficas para a compreensão da complexa organização do mundo natural. Nesse artigo são apresentados alguns apontamentos sobre a organização do criacionismo e do Intelligent Design nos EUA, berço de sua constituição, e no Brasil, cuja disseminação tem ocupado várias instituições da república.
Notas etnográficas sobre o surgimento dos cursos de formação de professores de ciências no semiárido baiano
Authors: Cruz Elizeu Pinheiro da
Published: May 2020

Este trabalho apresenta apontamentos acerca dos percursos de instituições e sujeitos relacionados ao surgimento e desenvolvimento dos Cursos de Ciências no semiárido baiano, produzidos a partir de uma etnografia desenvolvida entre os anos 2011 e 2016 na esteira de contribuições de Clifford Geertz, James Clifford, Marilyn Strathern, Mariza Peirano e Olívia Cunha. Objetiva-se aqui problematizar enunciados que relacionam a gênese do ensino superior na Bahia à demanda de formação de professores em uma investigação que considera os arquivos como campos etnográficos. Argumenta-se que as Faculdades de Formação de Professores marcaram a formação de professores de Ciências no semiárido baiano e matizaram o surgimento do ensino superior relacionado à formação de professores na década de 1970. As reformas curriculares que ofereceram os contornos dos Cursos de Ciências e das instituições às quais estavam vinculados foram estabilizadas pelo Governo Estadual sem deixar de serem disputadas por professores, estudantes e outros sujeitos da sociedade local.
Mundo do trabalho e as reformas na educação
Authors: Araújo Renan , Pereira Karla Cristina Prudente , Silva Larissa Ribeiro da
Published: May 2020

Neste artigo, analisa-se o processo de flexibilização do ensino, correlato às reformas da educação em implantação no Brasil. Iniciadas por volta da década de 1990, as mudanças propostas no século XXI, em uma perspectiva dialética, representam a continuidade das teses apresentadas por Delors (1997) no sentido de que estão em sintonia com as necessidades do processo de produção flexível. Em superação ao taylorismo/fordismo, a flexibilidade toyotista caracteriza-se pela redução de custos na produção por meio da flexibilização do processo produtivo e do enxugamento dos postos de trabalho individuais. Seguindo o princípio da produção Just in Time, o ritmo da produção se orienta pela demanda do mercado de modo a manter os estoques reduzidos. A análise desenvolvida no artigo visa apreender as mudanças no processo produtivo e o sentido da formação neo-tecnicista preconizada por meio da Base Nacional Comum Curricular - BNCC, bem como do esvaziamento das possibilidades da formação do indivíduo na perspectiva omnilateral.

Introduction: Flies can transmitted disease. The final waste disposals were the breeding place of flies, especially when the final waste disposals weren`t implementation in good management. The objectives of the research were to analyze the differences between flies density in the Pakusari landfill and Ambulu landfill, Jember District, Indonesia. Method: the method was analytic with a cross-sectional design. The data were collected with observation, interview and measure the flies density. The population was all of the area kavling in the Pakusari and Ambulu landfill. The samples were total population. There were 4 active kavling in the landfill, and interview 68 head of the family which stays around the landfill how the flies disrupt their daily activity. The measurements of flies density were using fly grill, stopwatch, form the flies density. The type of flies was identification. Result and Discussion: Waste disposal management at Pakusari landfill was a controlled landfill, and Ambulu was open dumping. Both of flies density of the landfill were categorized very high. The measurement of flies density was in September 2019, whereas the Pakusari landfill using open dumping because of the equipment was broken. The highest flies density on Pakusari at kavling 2 dan 3,4 were 44,4 per 30 seconds (point 1) and 42,4 per 30 seconds (point 1). At kavling 2, 3 Ambulu landfills were 34 per 30 seconds (point 6) and 31,4 per second (point 1) There were sig difference flies density between Pakusari and Ambulu landfill (p=0,000). The most of flies were Musca Domestica(81%). The most distribution of flies were disturbed by the view, causing diarrhea, typus. Conclussion: Waste disposal landfill management should be improving with sanitary landill to control the flies density and decrease the vector-borne disease.

Authors: Syamsir Syamsir , Pangestuty Dwi Murdaningsih
Published: May 2020

Introduction: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is the disease that spread quickly in tropical and subtropical regions. DHF can spread quickly because the dengue virus is transmitted through the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus into the human body. One of the provinces that felt the impact of the dengue outbreak was East Kalimantan, especially Samarinda City. Efforts to prevent dengue have been attempted by health center officials in Samarinda City. The cause has not yet been effective in controlling DHF programs in Samarinda City because there is no mapping of DHF vulnerable areas. This study aims to map the pattern of DHF distribution in the working area of the health center to maximize the implementation of the DHF control program. Methods: The population in this study were all DHF sufferers registered at the Air Putih Health Center in 2018. Withdrawal samples using total sampling techniques. The analysis used in this study is spatial autocorrelation analysis by Moran’s I. The Moran Index method is used to determine the autocorrelation of the distribution of DHF cases. Result and Discussion: The results of the autocorrelation analysis showed a Z score <-Z α/2, meaning Ho was rejected. This shows that there is spatial autocorrelation in the distribution of DHF in the Health Center. Based on the Moran’s I value (Moran’s I = -0.045850) which has a negative value indicates that the distribution of DHF in the working area of the Health Center tends to spread or dispersed. Conclusion: This study concludes that the more cases of DHF in a densely populated area, the greater the chance of spatial autocorrelation. The closeness between DHF cases can form spatial autocorrelation with the dispersed category.
Symbolism of sacred and profane animals in the Quran
Authors: Ahmadi Anas
Published: May 2020

The story of animal symbolism is associated with knowledge and wisdom. This is in order to be used as an example by humans as a valuable lesson. Humans can learn ethics from fables. In the modern view, the symbolism of animals in relation to the issue of eco-psychology has become a trending topic. This study aims to explore the symbolism of sacred and profane animals in the Quran through a hermeneutic-anthropological perspective. This study used a qualitative-descriptive method by describing the data narratively. The data analysis techniques used in this study are hybridization techniques. First, there is reciting the verses (hermeneutical-anthropological) in the Quran can be either universal or particular. Second, there is identifying the passages that relate to animals, whether real pets or unreal ones (symbolism). Third, there is the classification of the animals associated with the pattern of binary oppositions, and the Quran in the context of mytheme (unit of myths) and cheritheme (unit of the story). Fourth, there is the search for collective mediation functions for the community supporters who are in the Quran - mytheme and cheritheme animals. The findings of this study are that: 1) animal symbolism in the Quran appears in the form of either dyadic or triadic and 2) the symbolism of animals the Quran shows that animals in the Quran have a collective mediating function for the supporting community,i.e. a) animals as intermediaries towards holy people (through sacrifice); b) animals as medicine/human health; and c) animals as protectors. The conclusion of this study shows that animals in the Quran appear in both real and symbolic form.
Discourse on the shifting of local beauty: Concepts in an Easternization era
Authors: Puspitasari Diana , Suryadi Yudi
Published: May 2020

The desire to be beautiful among Indonesian women today is influenced by the construction of beauty from outside of the culture. The popular culture of parts of East Asia has entered Indonesia and the Eastern concept of beauty has brought in a different paradigm compared to the local beauty of the Indonesian people. This study is a descriptive qualitative study involving discourse analysis that examines the shift in the construction of beauty held by Indonesian women in the decades 1990-2000 and 2001-2010 through the cosmetic advertisements that appeared on television. Through this research, the shift in the concept of beauty and the discourse hidden behind the present construction of beauty will be revealed. The results found that in the early 1990s, Indonesian women were still oriented towards the reality of the condition that Indonesian women’s skin is tanned. This shifted to the concept of fair skin being preferred using traditional ethnic materials in Indonesia. From the 2000s up until the present, the increasingly popular culture of Japan and Korea has made Indonesian women want white skin like Japanese and Korean women. The change is driven by the desire to be beautiful by those who have experienced the shift in the discourse and beauty concept. Capitalists, as the owners of capital, always want to reap the benefits of every phenomenon that occurs in society. The use of different taglines on the beauty products is a beauty discourse construction strategy in itself and it is a form of symbolic violence against women.
Impact of a free public transportation service for rural households

Published: May 2020

The transportation service subsidy is intended to ease the burden of students from low-income families by helping with their need for mobility. The local government provides a transportation service expenditure budget annually to pay for the transportation services they require. Theoretically, the subsidy benefits the poor, although a study on the evaluation of the transportation service subsidy program is still needed to ascertain whether the program beneficiaries benefit from the program. This study used a survey method, and it deepened by the in-depth interviews conducted with 98 respondents. It used to obtain supporting information to pair with the survey results. The critical findings from this study are that the subsidy program has increased the rate of savings in terms of transportation service spending, and it has also reduced the burden of food expenditure among the poor. Better access to education services among the program recipient students reduced traffic congestion, and the enthusiasm for learning within low-income family students are also benefits. Another benefit is that the public transport drivers involved in the program get sustainable income certainty. The income of the recipient community groups has increased moderately compared to the non-recipient groups. However, saving on transportation spending does not contribute significantly to the burden of food expenditure for low-income families. The reason for this is that the free transportation subsidies received by the poor are minimal in terms of the frequency of coupon use. This study concludes that free transport subsidies in the short term can alleviate the burden on the poor, and in the long run, they can improve the welfare of the poor.

Role of Protons in Calcium Signaling
Authors: Molinari Giuliano , Nervo Elsa
Published: May 2020

36 years after the publication of the important article by Busa and Nuccitelli on the variability of intracellular pH (pHi) and the interdependence of pHi and intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), little research has been carried out on pHi and calcium signaling. Moreover, the results appear to be contradictory. Some authors claim that the increase in [Ca2+]i is due to a reduction in pHi, others that it is caused by an increase in pHi. The reasons for these conflicting results have not yet been discussed and clarified in an exhaustive manner. Variations in pHi have a significant impact on the increase in [Ca2+]i and hence on some of the basic biochemical mechanisms of calcium signaling. This paper focuses on the possible triggering role of protons, highlighting the mechanisms potentially involved and the open issues that could be clarified by research.
Black Hole as the Global Standard Model
Authors: Farag Ali Ahmed
Published: May 2020

We study the localization of gravity through the matching point between non-inertial frames and local inertial frames. This localization of gravity lead to an emergence of a timeless state of the universe in a mathematically consistent way. We find a geometric interpretation of the speed of light and mass. The experimental evidence of the timeless state of the universe is the quantum entanglement and internal symmetries that are independent of time. Since the spin measurement is the manifestation of quantum entanglement measurement. Therefore, the spin of quantum particles is correlated with the relative gravitational red-shift at two different points. The same can be applied to all types of internal symmetries that are independent of time. Therefore gravity represents all measurements independent of time including quantum entanglement. We conclude that the gravity is the global $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)$ symmetry that produces gauge fields such as Electromagnetism, weak and strong nuclear force through localization with their internal symmetries correlated with the varying of relative gravitational red-shift . We also introduce a gravitational or geometric interpretation of spin-0, spin-1 and spin-1/2 states. We answered the question why do we measure matter and not anti-matter. We Introduce a solution for the Cosmological Constant Problem Value.

Published: May 2020

With the pandemic of Corona Virus [Covid-19], another infectious disease such as dengue neglected In Indonesia. Since the majority of resources, both human and capital, are focusing more on Covid-19, it is still essential to also manage dengue as it is still becoming a threat to the community. This paper aims to predict the number of cases of dengue in Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, which can help the government to plan for dengue program activities. The result shows the forecast that dengue will remain high for the whole year. With the stay at the home approach to preventing COVID19, chances to get dengue virus increased. Maintaining a clean environment, reduction of breeding sites, and other protective measurements against dengue transmission is very important to perform.
Histamine Antagonists to Temper the Cytokine Overproduction in Gastrointestinal Cells Infected by SARS-CoV-2
Authors: Geurdes Han , Koutsaroff Ivo
Published: May 2020

The premise regarding COVID-19 disease is that it is a spectrum which begins with infection with viral SARS-CoV-2 exposure via airborne or oral virus particles. The individual response to it depends on many factors including co-morbid conditions. An important aspect of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection is the cytokine storm that develops after the infection. The immuno-chemical chaos created in this cytokine storm is to the benefit of the virus. In this meta analysis the authors explore ways to let the cytokine storm die down by looking into the role of histamine. Histamine is a metabolic product of the essential aminoacid histidine. Histamine has 4 known receptors: H1, H2, H3 and H4. The immunoglobulines IgE and IgM are indicative for a COVID-19 infection. This immune response is related to inflammation. Inflammation, in turn, runs mainly via histamine after e.g. virus inoculation. The goal of the meta-study is to gather evidence to primarily block the H4 receptor (H4R) in gastrointestinal cells to diminish the cytokine overproduction in the $\approx$ 30\% of the patients suffering from gastrointestinal problems caused by SARS-CoV-2. Our concept is as follows. If we can strike a careful balance between hampering the gastrointestinal spreading of the virus and histamine antagonists to tackle the cytokine storm, then the natural immunity can later on come on line again and attack the virus without being led astray by cytokine chaos. We will concentrate on H4R but also look at H1R and H2R related effects. The proposed substances in our systemic approach can be balanced for an effective early treatment. The nature of our work is by its method and results theoretical. In that respect we also may note the structural chemistry indol skeleton resemblance among a number of different drugs.

Recently, thanks to implementation of radiological and metabolic exams and development of new target therapies, oligometastatic and oligoprogressive disease presentations are even more common, leading to a change of paradigm of focal treatments. In fact, acknowledgement of behaviour of disease in these setting of patients is carrying aim of radiotherapy towards modalities with radical intent. The aim of this literature review is to analyse available clinical data regarding disease behaviour, imaging, radiotherapy and chemo-radiotherapy integration outcomes for understanding bone metastasis from breast cancer and the potential impact of targeting it.

Along with the Coronavirus pandemic, another crisis has manifested itself in the form of mass fear and panic phenomena, fuelled by incomplete and often inaccurate information. There is therefore a tremendous need to address and better understand COVID-19's informational crisis and gauge public sentiment, so that appropriate messaging and policy decisions can be implemented. In this research article, we identify public sentiment associated with the pandemic using Coronavirus specific Tweets and R statistical software, along with its sentiment analysis packages. We demonstrate insights into the progress of fear-sentiment over time as COVID-19 approached peak levels in the United States, using descriptive textual analytics supported by necessary textual data visualizations. Furthermore, we provide a methodological overview of two essential machine learning classification methods, in the context of textual analytics, and compare their effectiveness in classifying Coronavirus Tweets of varying lengths. We observe a strong classification accuracy of 91% for short Tweets, with the Naive Bayes method. We also observe that the logistic regression classification method provides a reasonable accuracy of 74% with shorter Tweets, and both methods showed relatively weaker performance for longer Tweets. This research provides insights into Coronavirus fear sentiment progression, and outlines associated methods, implications, limitations and opportunities.

Background: COVID-19 is a disease of the elderly as 95% of deaths related to COVID-19 occur in people over 60 years of age. Despite the urgent need for a preventive treatment there are currently no serious leads, other than the vaccination. Objective: To find a preventive treatment of COVID-19 in elderly patients. Design: Retrospective case-control study. Setting: Robertsau Geriatric Hospital of the University Hospitals of Strasbourg, France. Patients: 179 elderly patients who had been in contact with the SARS-CoV-2, of whom 89 had tested RT-PCR-positive (COVID-pos) for the virus and 90 had tested RT-PCR-negative (COVID-neg). Measurements: Treatments within 15 days prior to RT-PCR (including antihypertensive drugs, antipsychotics, antibiotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), paracetamol, anticoagulant, oral antidiabetics (OADs), corticosteroids, immunosuppressants), comorbidities, symptoms, laboratory values, and clinical outcome were all collected using the electronic patient record. Results: COVID-pos patients more frequently had a history of diabetes (P=.016) and alcoholism (P=.023), a lower leukocyte count (P=.014) and a higher mortality rate– 29.2% versus 14.4% – (P=.014) when compared to COVID-neg patients. Patients on PPIs were 2.3 times less likely (odds ratio [OR] = 0.4381, 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.2331, 0.8175], P=.0053) to develop COVID-19 infection, compared to those not on PPIs. No other treatment decreased or increased this risk. COVID-19 patients on antipsychotics (P=.0013) and OADs (P=.0166) were less likely to die. Limitations: retrospective study. Conclusion: PPIs treatment lowered the risk of development of COVID-19 infection, and antipsychotics and OADs decreased the risk of mortality in geriatric patients. If further studies confirm this finding, PPIs could be used preventatively in the elderly in this pandemic context. Moreover, OADS and antipsychotics should be tested in clinical trials.

Phenotype variation is produced through a complex of interactions between genotype and environment. Phenotype, genotype, and environment are addresses the relationship between architecture and identity. The term genotype biology and phenotype have been adopted into architecture in the late twentieth century. Genotypes are abstract relational models that govern the arrangement of space, and the principle of organizing space and phenotypes is the real realization of genotypes in the physical environment. The genotype is a reflection that is not only about the spatial organization but also the nature of social and cultural patterns. Then this study purpose to an understanding of the connectedness variant phenotype from a genotype and environment. The repetition pattern being stable structure in variation phenotype uses as a database to finding an identity in architecture. The method used in this research was Levi Strauss's structuralism and multi-layer of a biological system. This research samples traditional Malay houses in West Borneo, Indonesia. These houses have a unique site and existing environment. The houses can be found mainly along the river. The results found from the phenotype, genotype, and environment have value and meaning as a traditional Malay house rule in West Borneo which was always handed down from generation to generation.

Paper currency recognition is important for automatic payment system. The paper performs a nominal paper detection process using image processing with canny method implemented in python programming language. The canny method is used to find edge features in the nominal currency. By using template matching of image reference, region of interest (ROI) of nominal value is extracted so that it can be used in any orientation of  paper currency image. The ROI of nominal image is processed by canny edge method and spatial transformation to strengthen the image features and being processed by template matching to decide nominal currency. The study has successfully tested nominal value of 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 50000, and 100000 Indonesia banknotes which then the currency value will appear in the value variable in python.

Demand for electricity is increasing rapidly, the consequence of this is a threat to the stability of the electrical system, one of which is the voltage stability. FACTS or Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System is electronic equipment that is able to regulate electric power transmission that can be used to overcome stability problems. This research will analyze the use of Static Var Compensator (SVC) as one of the equipment from FACTS to overcome the stability of the most critical buses by using the 500 kV Java-Bali electricity system using PSAT. Results from using the power flow method in the 500 kV Java-Bali case show that the total active power generation is 12.144 p.u. and the total reactive power generation is 5.268 p.u. This value is obtained from the total addition of active power generation and reactive power of all plants in the 500 kV Java-Bali system. While the total active power load is worth 12.058 p.u. and the total reactive power load is 4.65 p.u. This value is obtained from the total load on each bus plus the total losses incurred on the line.
