Students' voting experience can be made far more secure, transparent, and effective with an electronic voting system based on blockchain. But for it to be implemented successfully, technological issues must be resolved, accessibility must be guaranteed, and student trust must be developed. Resilient security protocols, intuitive user interfaces, and unambiguous dissemination of the advantages and functionality of the system are vital for surmounting possible obstacles and optimizing favorable outcomes. System development techniques and a descriptive research design were used in this study. The developed systems are accepted and compliant as determined by the IT experts, as evidenced by the grand mean of 4.63 and the descriptive rating of conformity to a very high level. It can be deduced that the SG Advisor, SAS Director, students, and Canvasser Board from Maddela and Diffun Campus gave the generated application great approval and acceptance. This indicates that there is a notable discrepancy between the users' and IT specialists' perceptions of the system's adoption and compliance levels. This procedure can be made better with a safe voting system that has cutting-edge features. Blockchain technology is regarded as a disruptive breakthrough with substantial potential to improve the electronic voting system.

Published: January 2025

A tele-referral system with a geographic information system (GIS) integrates telehealth services with spatial data to enhance healthcare delivery. Resource constraints can significantly impact the effectiveness of a tele-referral system with GIS. Addressing delayed or missed referrals is critical to ensuring timely patient care and improving health outcomes. Implementing a tele-referral system with GIS can significantly enhance healthcare delivery by leveraging spatial data and telehealth technologies to improve access, efficiency, and outcomes. One major issue is the lack of access to specialists, particularly in underprivileged communities. Patients face accessing specialized care due to a cumbersome referral process or long wait times, as well as the lack of patient engagement. The results showed that the GIS-enabled tele-referral system significantly reduced patient waiting times and improved the coordination of care. By incorporating these functionalities and strategies, the tele-referral system with GIS can effectively address issues related to delayed or missed referrals, ensuring timely patient care and improving overall health outcomes.

Authors: Abden Sofiane , Bendjima Mostefa , Benkrama Soumia
Published: January 2025

Crop diseases lead to significant losses for farmers and threaten the global food supply. The date palm, valued for its nutritional benefits and drought resistance in desert climates, is a vital export crop for many countries in the Middle East and North Africa, second only to hydrocarbons. However, various diseases pose a threat to this important plant. Therefore, early disease prediction using deep learning (DL) is essential to prevent the deterioration of date palm crops. The aim of this paper is to apply a robust ensemble method (EL) combining tree transfer learning (TL) models Resnet50, DenseNet201, and InceptionV3, and compares its performance with the CNN-SVM model and the tree TL models mentioned previously. The models were applied to a date palm dataset containing three classes: White scale, brown spot, and healthy leaf. The training and validation sets were applied to a public dataset, while the testing set was applied to a local dataset captured manually to check the model’s performance. As a result, we considered that the ensemble method gave very satisfactory results compared to other methods. Our hybrid model reached a testing accuracy of 98% while achieving an amazing training and validation accuracy of 99.94% and 98.14%, respectively.

Authors: Wang Qian , Ibrahim Shafaf , Wan Xing , Idrus Zainura
Published: January 2025

CAPTCHA is a cybersecurity measure that distinguishes between humans and automated scripts. Researchers have employed various security features to thwart automated program identification by hackers. However, previous research on the attack resistance of CAPTCHAs has used roughly quantitative analysis instead of a fine-grain quantitative study. This study implemented comparative experiments based on CAPTCHA recognition algorithms to find the best-mixed security features. A multi-stage best parameter selection (MBPS) mechanism was proposed in this study. Experiment results indicated that mixed security features of “overlap + scale + rotate + bg (background)” were the best, with an average machine recognition accuracy of only 4.81%. The contrast experiment result illustrated that the anti-attack ability of mixed security features was better than adding adversarial noise, with machine recognition accuracy decreased by 2.2%. Moreover, by investigating the efficacy of security feature parameters, this study provides practical guidelines for designing robust CAPTCHAs. Furthermore, this study also presents valuable insights into the security of image generation technology.

Authors: S. Suriya , R. Agusthiyar
Published: January 2025

Energy consumption is influenced by various factors, including the proliferation of electronic devices, technological advancements, economic growth, agricultural development, and population increase. Each of these factors contributes to the rising demand for energy. This paper addresses the challenge of predicting peak energy demand (ED) by utilizing historical time series data from the past five years, combined with temperature data from Tamil Nadu’s official sources. We employed feature engineering techniques to prepare the data for machine learning models, specifically XGBoost regressor, lasso, and ridge regression. The time series data was then analyzed using both univariate and multivariate models, including auto regressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) and vector autoregressive (VAR) models. The results show that our models can effectively forecast ED, providing critical insights for policymakers and stakeholders involved in energy planning and resource management.

Authors: Anupriya Anupriya , Nandal Vikas
Published: January 2025

In the ever-evolving landscape of wireless communication, there is a persistent quest for modulation schemes that optimize spectral efficiency, reduce interference, and enhance overall system performance. This paper introduces a novel modulation technique that synergistically improves on the strengths of filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC). A distinctive feature of our approach is the deployment of the Hermite prototype filter in the FBMC system, diverging from traditional FBMC architectures. An advanced precoding strategy leveraging a pruned discrete fourier transform (pDFT) paired with scaling is also introduced. This combination promises reduced inter-symbol interference and heightened spectral efficiency. As the management of the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is a significant challenge in FBMC systems to addressing this iterative particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm is proposed. Evaluations are carried out to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposes scheme in reducing PAPR substantially for FBMC/OQAM framework. Experiments are conducted and comparisons are performed among several prominent multicarrier modulation schemes. The results from the experiments indicate that the application of IPSO algorithm with Hermite functions and applied to an FBMC/OQAM system using pruned DFT has been successful in reducing the PAPR also a 6-13% decrease in error rate has been shown across varying QAM orders regardless of SNR level.

Histórias em quadrinhos, gêneros discursivos e competência em informação na construção de capital cultural
Authors: Costa Robson Santos
Published: January 2025

Information is seen as an essential element for the social mobility of individuals in contemporary times. Knowing how to access, understand and use information is extremely important for a society to make progress. Thus, this article proposes, by a literature review, a reflection on the role of comics as a means of social transformation, by tracing a relationship between the concepts of speech genres (Bakhtin, 1997), information literacy (Dudziak, 2003) and cultural capital (Bourdieu, 2015). We conclude that, as a discursive genre, and with information literacy policies in libraries or other spaces for cultural practices, comics can build cultural capital by acting on the social mobility of subjects.

Authors: Cunha Miguel Alexandre da , Escada Maria Isabel Sobral , Sant'Anna Sidnei João Siqueira
Published: January 2025

Açaí is highly significant both economically and nutritionally for the communities of the Baixo Tocantins region in the state of Pará, Brazil. However, mapping açaí palm trees has proven to be a challenging task due to their location beneath the forest canopy, which complicates their identification through orbital satellite imagery. To address this challenge, this study aimed to identify potential areas of native açaí occurrence by employing map algebra with Boolean operation rules, integrating land use and land cover data with hydro-topographic data generated using the Height Above the Nearest Drainage algorithm (HAND). The results indicate that approximately 56% of the study area has some potential for native açaí occurrence. To validate the classification, 66 field samples related to fruit production were analyzed, resulting in 70% agreement. Of these, approximately 80% showed high potential for açaí occurrence. These findings provide valuable insights for a broader discussion on regional public policies related to the açaí economy, as the spatialization of this indicator can support local population inclusion while encouraging the conservation of forest resources.

Published: January 2025

Microreliefs are present in several terrestrial ecosystems, including on other planets, such as Mars. These can be indicators of environments with a greater presence of humidity (such as in semi-arid regions), they can be indicators of the presence of expansive clays (2:1), bioturbation or the occurrence of permafrost (in periglacial environments). In the national literature there is a large gap regarding the gilgal microreliefs of the Brazilian semi-arid region. The objective of this study was to analyze the genesis, morphology and features associated with microreliefs, in different terrestrial environments, with an emphasis on gilgais in semi-arid environments based on a bibliographic review study. In areas with microreliefs, soil disturbance occurs in a widespread manner, being associated with freezing, bioturbation, or clay disturbance. In this way, the opening of preferential paths for water percolation (through cracks or channels) is remarkable. In semi-arid tropical environments, the primordial process for the genesis of gilgais is associated with the presence of expansive clays with high activity and accumulation models with a greater occurrence of wetting and drying cycles. Landscapes with microreliefs have in common a complexity of pedological and geomorphological processes, which in order to better discover interscalar relationships, from macro to micro and vice-versa.

Authors: Matos Maira Delmondes de , Lima Nilsângela Cardoso
Published: January 2025

Essa pesquisa examina as mudanças na imprensa atreladas à ideia de sedimentação das identidades nacionais emergidas na segunda metade do século XIX, período no qual os países recém-independentes na América do Sul se consolidavam enquanto Estados Nações. Focamos nos casos de Brasil e Paraguai para demostrar como era preciso criar e difundir símbolos, a fim de firmar identicidades e definir pertencimentos. Nesse sentido, entendemos a Guerra do Paraguai, ou La Gran Guerra, como motivação maior para fabricação dessas identidades. Nesse contexto, a imprensa cumpriu o importante papel de validar símbolos, forjando os limites das nacionalidades. Sobre essa perspectiva, analisamos a atuação dos periódicos A Imprensa e El centinela, respectivamente publicados no Brasil e no Paraguai, pontuando no estudo desses casos uma lógica maior de atuação da imprensa.

Estudo da exposição à luz solar em áreas residenciais adensadas considerando a ABNT NBR 15.215-3:2024
Authors: Almeida Bruno Guimarães de Melo , Souza Roberta Vieira Gonçalves de , Vecchini Luisa Miquelete
Published: January 2025

The sun is a historical premise for the city's quality of life, human health, and well-being. However, there is a discrepancy between what is produced by the construction industry in densely populated urban areas and the environmental comfort of their residents. With this in mind, the article investigated the behavior of the new metric for minimum sunlight exposure from ABNT NBR 15.215-3:2024 in verticalized neighborhoods of Curitiba/PR and Porto Alegre/RS, metropolises located in bioclimatic zones 1M (very cold with a moderate winter) and 2R (cold), respectively, where compliance with the requirement is mandatory due to the susceptibility to cold discomfort. Based on the construction potential of current master plans, it was observed that more restrictive urban planning parameters, as seen in Porto Alegre, greatly favor compliance with the standard at higher levels, even considering higher latitudes. In more permissive scenarios, such as in Curitiba, the metric alone does not provide definitive results, since it, in isolation, is not sufficient for a conclusive result on solar exposure, since most analyzed units would need to be subjected to thermal performance evaluation by NBR 15.575:2021 to verify compliance with Level I. Finally, authors concluded that aligning public policies, standardization, and market interests is necessary to ensure residents' comfort.
A situação escolar contra a violência do desejo em ruína
Authors: Silva Bruna Rafaele Souza da , Buechler Flávia Tridapalli , Vidal Paulo Eduardo Viana
Published: January 2025

L'objectif principal de ce travail est de présenter un type de violence présente dans les écoles et dont la caractéristique est le désir en ruine, un phénomène psychique résultant de l'invasion technocratique de la scène scolaire. Nous renvoyons pour cela au cas bien connu des cerveaux frais présenté par Ernst Kris en 1948 et repris par Jacques Lacan, dix ans plus tard, dans le texte L'orientation du traitement et les principes de son pouvoir. La discussion se déroule fondamentalement à partir des notions de situation analytique, d'interprétation, de transfert, de transmission et de désir. Comme proposition de résistance à ce type de violence à l'école, sont présentées les réflexions de Walter Benjamin sur la valeur formatrice du récit d'expériences, un acte qui lie les générations et qui va dans une direction contraire à l'individualisation des impasses scolaires.
Escolas, palco e alvo de massacres: (trans)formações do código da violência
Authors: Andrade Fernando Cézar Bezerra de , Gonçalves Catarina Carneiro
Published: January 2025

With a Laplanchean reading, we understand the school simultaneously as target and stage of massacres. Target, because it is the receiver of ipsocentric translations of the sexual death drive, using the violence discourse as a narcissistic response to the original psychic passivity and social submission imposed by adults. Stage, as a source, a melting pot of messages sent by adult world, also affected by sexual death drive, appealing to violent social codes in paradoxical translations – demonizing or valuing otherness. By making schools as stage and target, massacres question about the limits of their codes to set up coexistence, denouncing their inadequacy, and demand translations with codes that help to distinguish psychic violence from social violence, linking drives without attacking people in order to transform the code of violence.
Aviso de incêndio: o mal-estar no laço educativo e a dimensão sociopolítica do sofrimento escolar
Authors: Fagundes Patrícia da Conceição , Gurski Rose
Published: January 2025

This article reflects about the malaise in the educational bond and its effects on the psychological suffering of adolescents based on a research-intervention experience carried out in a school institution in the south of the country. We start from the sociopolitical dimension of the suffering of school subjects in order to constitute a clinical-political intervention strategy through the presence of  psychoanalytic listening and ethics at school. We highlight the crossings of the new school order in the narratives of school subjects, in conjunction with the social inequalities that are expressed in the Brazilian educational problem, increased more currently by neoliberal practices. Inspired by the Benjaminian aphorism about the “Fire Alarm”, we open up new possibilities to listen to discomfort and psychological suffering in the space of the school institution.

To achieve the proposed objectives, the interview employs concepts from thematic oral history (Meihy, 2002; Hoffman, 2015; Lozano, 2006) and semi-structured interviews (Bernal Torres, 2006; Manzini, 1990/1991; Triviños, 1987) as investigative methodologies. These procedures serve as a foundation for developing a methodological path. In other words, processes are adapted to address a problem within the field of Communication and Culture.

Economia do Cuidado e Equidade de Gênero no Trabalho:o papel das políticas públicas de assistência social e dos novos arranjos de trabalho
Authors: Duarte Andressa , Morimoto Lays Harumi
Published: January 2025

Este trabalho busca analisar o papel da mulher na economia do cuidado e sua relação com a equidade de gênero no mercado de trabalho, contextualizando a vinculação da mulher ao  trabalho reprodutivo, a luta feminista pela valorização do trabalho doméstico como um trabalho reprodutivo e fornecedor de força de trabalho dentro do sistema capitalista. A partir da apresentação de indicadores sociais e econômicos históricos e contemporâneos, conclui-se que, mesmo com a crescente participação feminina no mercado de trabalho e os novos arranjos familiares, ainda existe uma lacuna importante quanto a políticas públicas e mudanças na legislação trabalhista que corroborem para a redução das desigualdades no papel do trabalho de cuidado não remunerado, para a desvinculação do cuidado da figura feminina, de forma a desresponsabilizar a família, de forma integral e predominante, do cuidado com idosos e pessoas com deficiência, e para ampliar o amparo ao cuidado de crianças para além da gestação e primeiros meses de vida.
Implementação da Escola Cívico-Militar a partir do Olhar dos Fluxos Múltiplos
Authors: Eliseu Renato , Batista Marcelo Boscoli , Bezerra Marília de Almeida
Published: January 2025

This article examines the National Program of Civic-Military Schools in Brazil, a public policy initiative led by the Ministry of Education in conjunction with the Ministry of Defense. The program proposes the educational and administrative management of regular educational units with the participation of teaching staff and the support of retired military personnel, following a management model based on Military Schools. Using John Kingdon Multiple Streams model, the analysis aims to illustrate how Civic-Military Schools have emerged as one of the main public education policies of the federal government. The Multiple Streams model aids in understanding decision-making dynamics, considering variables such as power, rationality, and priority choices, simplifying complex realities and facilitating the comprehension of decisions and pivotal moments in the Brazilian education landscape. A critical analysis grounded in this well-established theoretical model is essential to enhance the debate and inform decision-making in the educational field.
Motivação, Satisfação no Serviço Público e o Papel Mediador do Chamado Ocupacional
Authors: Siqueira Fábia Colli , Cristo-Andrade Silveli
Published: January 2025

O objetivo desta pesquisa foi verificar se a motivação para o serviço público influencia positivamente o chamado ocupacional e a satisfação no trabalho e se o chamado ocupacional influencia positivamente a satisfação no trabalho, bem como medeia a relação entre a motivação para o serviço público e a satisfação no trabalho. Com esse propósito, foi realizada uma pesquisa com os servidores das instituições públicas de ensino, sendo quantitativa, descritiva, com uso de dados primários e corte transversal e a análise por meio da Modelagem de Equação Estrutural (MEE). Os resultados apontam que o chamado ocupacional pode ser considerado o mediador entre a motivação para o serviço público e satisfação no trabalho, bem como recebe influência da motivação para o serviço público e influencia a satisfação no trabalho. Por outro lado, a motivação para o serviço público não apresentou influência na satisfação no trabalho. Assim, este estudo propicia ferramentas para o desenvolvimento e o aprimoramento de políticas na área de gestão de recursos humanos, através da identificação de onde e como os servidores podem encontrar sentido no desempenho de seu trabalho em prol do atendimento dos interesses da sociedade.
A narradora de Caderno Afegão: uma jornalista na borda do mundo
Authors: Neves Leticia Myrrha de Paula e Silva , Serelle Marcio de Vasconcellos
Published: January 2025

The proposal of this article is to investigate, through the analysis of the narrator's voice in Caderno Afegão, the interchange between personal diary and reporting, as well as the adherence between textual and authorial identities, manifested from gender issues, which the clash between different cultures brings forth. Our hypothesis is that the narrator's subjectivity is constructed, textually, from the cultural encounters she experiences. Thus, gradually, the distant gaze of a foreign reporter gives way to a feminine perspective, of solidarity with Afghan women. The examination of the work brings at least two important contributions to the study of journalistic narrative: first, it allows understanding fluctuations between genres of non-fiction and hybridizations, present in contemporary Portuguese-language journalism; second, it problematizes, in the field of narratology, the relationships between the empirical author and the narrator in factual accounts.
IA Responsável, Plataformas de Mídia Social e Regulação no Brasil: Notas para Pensar a Participação Social em Tempos de Incertezas

Published: January 2025

This conceptual study, organized by a literature survey, aims to reflect and critically observe the impacts and transformations artificial intelligence (AI), supported by algorithm systems and machine learning, has brought to sociocultural relations and processes in contemporary Brazil. It also outlines the concept of responsible artificial intelligence, emphasizing the key role of social participation in the regulatory constructions encompassing the development, application, and social uses of AI. As a result, this study provides an informative theoretical and technical framework that signalizes and discusses some points of attention and recommendations on the expressions of AI in Brazil in a critical and interdisciplinary way. These recommendations can inform and support future interventions and research on the topics in focus.
Fronteiras da Alteridade no Documentário e na Ficção: Imigrantes, Refugiados e suas Representações na Cultura Audiovisual
Authors: Lobato José Augusto Mendes
Published: January 2025

This paper discusses the formulation of boundaries between identity and alterity in the representation of refugees and immigrants in audiovisual culture. Specifically, we examine the circulation and reverberation of what we call alterity narratives, seeking to understand how subjects represented in documentary and fictional works read their content. We explore concepts from language, culture and media studies – such as social representation, translation, boundary, mediation and mediatization – and conducted semi-open interviews with ten immigrants and refugees. The research subjects were also invited to watch scenes from two documentaries and a telenovela to evaluate the ways in whichboundaries are constructed and their universes of origin are translated into these narratives. We note that the processes of mediatization of alterity tend to reduce complexity in extreme ways and are based on judgments and valuation processes when designating cultural difference.
Rumo ao FM: Impasse e Expectativa em Rádios AM Curitibanas

These reflections are based on a rather provocative premise: reception is not merely a stage in the communication process, it is a new place from which we must rethink communication studies and research. It is not a stage, as suggested by the North American school, that somewhat imposed on us a kind of artificial history, studied for years by sociology—essentially focusing on the economics of the sender—and later by the semiotic analysis of the ideology of the message. Seeking to break away from this “staged” conception, I propose that reception constitutes a kind of metaphor for reconnecting communication studies with today’s Latin American society—and not that of the 1970s, when communication studies began to gain importance in schools and society

The Black Aesculapian Snake Zamenis longissimus (Serpentes: Colubridae): characters and possible origin of the subgrisea morphotype
Authors: Paterna Alessandro
Published: January 2025

Novos dados adquiridos sobre a biologia de Zamenis longissimus lançam luz sobre um morfotipo específico amplamente difundido nessa espécie: a formasubgrisea. Por meio da criação em cativeiro de grupos de indivíduos durante várias gerações, foi estabelecido que esse morfotipo é causado por uma mutação recessiva. A presença e a combinação de vários caracteres indicam que essa forma não provém de uma única mutação genética, como o melanismo ou o axantismo, mas sim de um morfotipo mais complexo do que considerado anteriormente. A expressão dessa forma em vários exemplares de diferentes países da Europa e do Oriente Médio sugere que a origem do morfotipo é comum e antiga, não aleatória. A partir de análises genéticas, registros fósseis e observações recentes de indivíduos selvagens, é provável que essa forma tenha-se originado na península dos Balcãs, onde é mais comum, e se espalhado para a Europa Central durante a expansão e a recolonização da espécie no final do Pleistoceno, após a última glaciação. Zamenis longissimus poderia, portanto, ser considerada uma espécie polimórfica.
