Blooming charge assessment in apple orchards for automatic thinning activities
Authors: Daglio Gabriele , Gallo Raimondo , Mazzetto Fabrizio
Published: January 2020

This work aims to develop an automatic system capable of providing objective information about the bloom charge in an apple orchard in order to manage flower-thinning activities. The article presents and discusses the use of a mobile lab (ByeLab) equipped with several optical sensors to carry out a site-specific bloom charge assessment in apple trees. The data collected by the sensors were processed by a specific algorithm implemented in MatLab®. Investigations of the flower reflectance signature indicated that the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is the most suitable parameter to distinguish leaves from flowers. Pure flowers produce NDVI values slightly negative or at least very near to 0. Despite the homogeneous behavior of the NDVI flower response, OptRx™ sensors, which provide an average assessment of an area, were not able to highlight a significant correlation between the number of flowers and the NDVI values. In the future, further studies will be conducted to assess if other techniques based on image analyses can provide better and more sensitive results regarding the bloom charge assessment. Such results could then be used as a reference in automating machines for thinning operations according to a site-specific approach.
Assessment of body composition in oncologic patients: Experimental survey on the role of bioimpedentiometric analysis
Authors: Gammone Maria Alessandra , Ficoneri Cristiana , D’Orazio Nicolantonio
Published: January 2020

Overall survival of oncologic patients is strongly influenced by the incidence of malnutrition, with subsequent loss of muscle mass until sarcopenia. In this respect, the assessment of body composition has a pivotal role in order to manage the clinical consequences of muscle loss.

Aim:

This study focuses on the body composition assessment in oncologic patients, following a diet plan in order to detect and contrast neoplastic cachexia.

Materials and Method:

35 oncologic patients were enrolled and divided into two groups: 24 responders (R) and 11 non-responders (NR). Anthropometric data were collected and body composition was assessed through bioimpedentiometry. All patients received an individualized normocaloric diet. Energetic content was assigned on the basis of individual basal metabolic rate estimated by BIA. All patients were revaluated by anthropometry and bioimpedentiometry 3 and 6 months thereafter.

Results:

Comparing the two male groups R and NR after 6 months, the former maintained almost the same confidence interval, unlike the latter whose interval increased, indicating a light worsening both of body composition and of clinical conditions. Furthermore, in the same male responder group, an improvement of the phase angle (PhA), a positive prognostic factor, was found, with an average weight loss between 2,6 – 3 kg of fat mass (FM). Besides, data show how the R female group maintained the confidence interval unlike the NR female group, whose confidence interval remarkably increased, therefore indicating an important alteration of body composition and subsequently a clinical conditions worsening. Finally, comparing the NR male group with the NR female group after 6 months, a remarkable worsening of body composition (marker of tissue decay and damage) could be noticed in the latter group.

Conclusion:

After 6 months, NR patients show worse results (both in the body composition and in the clinical conditions) compared to the responders, with particularly worse results in females, probably because of a genetically determined sex-related smaller muscle cells and inferior muscular strength. A multidimensional assessment of oncologic patient is necessary, with a special attention to nutritional evaluation and body composition monitoring, in order to avoid malnutrition and subsequent further clinical worsening.

Published: January 2020

The objective of this study was to determine the potential value of electrical impedance myography (EIM) for assessing lumbosacral paraspinal muscle (LPM) condition in lower back pain (LBP) patients. Standard methods for assessing the condition of LPMs, such as magnetic resonance imaging, are inconvenient and expensive. One tool that could be useful for this purpose is electrical impedance myography (EIM) a technique that can be performed rapidly at the bedside. After undergoing a screening history and examination, subjects were studied with the mView EIM device (Myolex, Inc, Boston). Bilateral LPMs were measured three times each and the two closest sets of measurements averaged on each side. Data analysis included non-parametric two-group comparisons between healthy subjects and back pain patients, receiver-operating curve analyses, and correlation analyses to age and body mass index. A total of 86 healthy individuals (median age (interquartile range) (IQR), 45.5 years (30.3–56.0 years), 42 men, 44 women) and 47 LBP (median age 51.0 year (39.5–57.5) years, 21 men, 26 women) were enrolled. Median EIM 100kHz phase was lower in the LBP patients (9.3°(IQR 8.4°–10.6°) versus 11.4°(IQR 9.4°–13.0°), p = 0.0007). Significantly increased normalized side-to-side differences were present for all three EIM variables (e.g., median 100 kHz phase 0.15 (IQR 0.07–0.31 in LBP patients versus 0.09 (IQR 0.04–0.17) in healthy individuals). A significant correlation between 100 kHz EIM phase and reactance was found with age (Rspearman=−0.46, P=0.0002 and Rspearman=−0.440, P=0.0003) but not for resistance. This study provides early evidence supporting that EIM has the potential to serve as a useful tool for evaluating the condition of LPMs.

Eden 100 Forest Park is an ecotourism area that has the potential of natural resources that can be used as tourist attractions. Forest Park Eden 100 also provides environmental services such as hydrological forest services, forest services as carbon sinks, and forest services in producing timber and non-timber goods. This study aims to find out what environmental services are provided by the Eden 100 forest and to analyze the economic value of environmental services and the obstacles and challenges faced by managers in efforts to preserve forest ecosystems.

The results showed that the Eden 100 Forest Park provides environmental services in the form of direct use environmental services, namely wood production with economic value of the economic value of wood production of Rp 7,822,633,800 and non-wood (fruits) of Rp 25,500,000, non-use value directly in the form of natural landscapes (ecotourism) whose value is calculated using the travel cost method (TCM) and a yield of Rp 1,164,181,800 is obtained, non-use value in the form of existence services whose economic value is calculated using the contingent valuation method (CVM) of Rp.60,158,120 , as a carbon sink value which is calculated using the allometric method, and a yield of Rp. 18,161,220,000 is obtained. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that the total economic value of the Eden 100 Forest is Rp. 27,233,693,720. This proves that the existence of the Eden 100 forest is a very big economic benefit if its sustainability is maintained because it can absorb carbon which gives a great economic value. Efforts to manage and preserve Eden Forest Park 100 as a tourist attraction have been carried out in an integrated manner with the government, private sector and local communities, but need to be increased so that forests can provide environmental services in a sustainable manner.

Published: January 2020

The study location of landslide is in Hokkaido, Japan which occurred due to the Iburi Earthquake 2018. In this study the landslide has been estimated by the fully Polarimetric SAR (Pol-SAR) technique based on ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 data using the Yamaguchi’s decomposition. The Yamaguchi's decomposition is proposed by Yoshio Yamaguchi et.al. The data has been analyzed using the deep learning process with SegNet architecture with color composite. In this research, the performance of SegNet is fast and efficient in memory usage. However, the result is not good, based on the Intersection over Union (IoU) evaluation obtained the lowest value is 0.0515 and the highest value is 0.1483. That is because of difficulty to make training datasets and of a small number of datasets. The greater difference between accuracy and loss graph along with higher epochs represents overfitting. The overfitting can be caused by the limited amount of training data and failure of the network to generalize the feature set over the training images.

Published: January 2020

Bardet Biedl syndrome (BBS), is a multisystemic disorder which is described as a ciliopathy. BBS is a rare autosomal recessive disorder and 21 different BBS genes have been defined to date. BBS is characterized with dysmorphic extremities, retinitis pigmentosa, obesity, hypogenitalism, intellectual disabilility and renal structural abnormalities. Renal symptoms in patients with BBS, are nonspecific and often undetected until end-stage renal disease. Here, we were reported 23 children with BBS (12 females, 11 males) with renal abnormalities from a single center and defined their features. Age at diagnosis were very variable (2 days-16 years). Median age at diagnosis was 84 months. Mean follow-up period was 42 months. All 23 children had urinary tract abnormalities on renal ultrasonography. These abnormalities were polycysts (34.8%), hyperechogenic kidneys (34.8%), fetal lobulation (21.7%), hypoplasia on at least one kidney (21.7%) and hydronephrosis in at least one kidney (17.4%). Vesicoureteral reflux and neurogenic bladder detected 11.1% and 22.2% of patients who recieved a voiding cystourethrogram, respectively. Proteinuria was found in 39 % of patients. Hypertension was defined in 21.7% of patients. Six of 23 children (26%) in our cohort had proven mutations in BBS genes. Five of them (83.3%) had homozygous mutations in BBS10 gene and one of them had homozygous mutation in BBS2 gene. All of 23 children had retinitis pigmentosa, twenty two of them (95.6%) had learning disabilities/cognitive impairment and seventeen of them (82.6%) had obesity. Renal involvement is now accepted as a cardinal feature and the most important factor causing mortality in BBS.

Regular blood transfusions for children with beta thalassemia major (β- TM) results in iron overload cardiomyopathy/cardiac failure. Mortality in these children is most often because of heart failure. We compared Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) and conventional pulse wave Doppler (PWD) indices in evaluating diastolic function in chronically transfused β-TM children and correlated the Doppler indices with mean serum ferritin levels. This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted at tertiary teaching hospital. β-TM children aged 3 to 18 years were enrolled as per inclusion criteria. PWD parameters at the mitral inflow (E, A, E/A and DT) and TDI parameters at the medial mitral annulus (E'and E/E') were used for estimation of diastolic dysfunction. Of the 66 children with thalassemia, the mean age was 10.2±3.77yrs and 60.6% were boys. The E/E' ratio estimated diastolic dysfunction (34/66, 51.5%) greater than four times that assessed by E/A ratio indices (8/66, 12.1%) in the subjects. Association of serum ferritin levels with E/E' ratio by chi square test was significant statistically (P=0.027), however was not significant with E/A ratio. By Mann Whitney test, the median serum ferritin levels (ng/ml) were higher [4034.50, (IQR-2084-5340.25) in those with diastolic dysfunction (abnormal E/E'), when compared to those with normal E/E'[2037.50(1510.75- 3572.25)], with their difference being significant (p=0.011), however serum ferritin levels were not significant with E/A ratio and DT. E/E' parameter had a sensitivity and specificity of 76.5% and 53.1% respectively at a mean serum ferritin cutoff level of 2076 ng/mL by ROC analysis. In conclusion, TDI is a more reliable modality for diagnosing early diastolic dysfunction when compared to PWD. Threshold level of serum ferritin greater than 2076 ng/mL is associated with increased incidence of diastolic dysfunction.

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of nitrogen balance in preterm infants with extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) during hospitalization. A total of 64 very preterm infants admitted to the Neonatal Medical Center of Huai`an Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital were enrolled from May to October 2014. These infants had gestational ages less than 32 weeks and were within 24 hours after birth. The enrolled infants were classified into EUGR (n=18) and non EUGR (n=46) groups according to the discharge weight being below or above the 10th percentile of the expected intrauterine growth for the postmenstrual age. The urinary urea nitrogen of the infants were assayed by the Kjeldahl method and determined at 1st, 7th, 14th and 28th day after birth. Nitrogen balance at each time point was calculated and compared between the EUGR and non EUGR groups. The incidence rate of small for gestational age (SGA) infants (33.3% vs 0.0%) in the EUGR group was higher than that in non EUGR group. The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). The birth weight (1.37±0.20 vs 1.63±0.27) and birth weight Z-score (-1.14±0.29 vs-0.37±0.66) in the EUGR group were lower those in non EUGR group. The difference was statistically significant (all p < 0.05). At the 1st, 7th, 14th and 28th day after birth, nitrogen balance values of all infants were negative, showing an upward trend with age. At each observation time point, the nitrogen balance values in the EUGR group were lower than those in non-EUGR group. The differences on the 1st and 28th day between two groups were statistically significant (both p < 0.05), while those on the other time point were not statistically significant (both p > 0.05). All very preterm infants of study were in negative nitrogen balance while the infants of EUGR group had more seriously negative balance.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is widespread all over the world. It causes infectious mononucleosis (IM) mostly in adolescents and adults. Although IM is considered to be rare in younger children and infants, acute EBV infection may have various manifestations in this age group. We aimed to describe the clinical features and laboratory findings of children hospitalized with acute EBV infection. All children hospitalized at Dr. Behçet Uz Children`s Hospital, between January 2010 and January 2017, who tested positive by presence of EBV-specific antibodies and had the diagnosis of acute EBV infection, were included (n=66). Thirty four of the patients (51.5%) were under 6 years of age, and 23 (34.8%) children were below 3 years of age. The most common physical finding was fever (92.4%) followed by cervical lymphadenopathy and tonsillopharyngitis. Leukocytosis (65.1%) and lymphocytosis (42.4%) were the most common laboratory findings. Reactive and atypical lymphocytes were present in 77.2% of the patients. Fifty-three (80.3%) of the patients had a doctor visit before hospitalization, and the ratio of patients using antibiotics was 77.3%. Skin rash was observed in 14 (27.4%) of the patients who used antibiotic treatment and in 2 (13.3%) of the patients who did not (p > 0.05). EBV infection resulting in admission to hospital is common in younger children, even in pre-school period. Serological tests for EBV specific antibody responses and peripheral blood smear evaluation are important diagnostic tools. In addition, rapid streptococcal antigen test and throat culture should be performed in patients presenting with tonsillopharyngitis in order to exclude Group A beta-hemolytic streptococci and reduce unnecessary antibiotic consumption.

The aim of this study was to determine the best cut-off score for determining motor delay in the Motor Scale of the Bayley Scales of Infant-Toddler Development-3rd Edition (Bayley-III) when compared to the Neuro-Sensory Motor Development Assessment (NSMDA) for low birth weight and preterm infants during the first year of life. One hundred and sixty infants born before 32 weeks of gestation and with birth weights of 1500 grams or less were included. Classifications of delay using different Bayley-III cut-offs were cross-tabulated with the NSMDA functional classification. Predictive values of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were calculated with 95% CIs. The sensitivity of a Bayley-III cut-off < 85 was 100% at 1, 8, and 12 months and 92.3% at 4 months. The best score on the Bayley-III for identifying infants with mild/moderate/severe motor problems on the NSMDA was 80 (100% at 1, 4, and 8 months; 91.3% at 12 months). For identifying motor impairments using the Bayley-III in low birth weight and preterm infants at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months old, the proper cut-off scores are 80-85.

Burkitt`s lymphoma, which is the most commonly diagnosed pediatric gastrointestinal tumor, usually affects the intestinal tract. However, the diagnosis of gastric Burkitt`s lymphoma in childhood is extremely rare. Here, we have reported the case of an adolescent male patient with vomiting and weight loss symptoms who was diagnosed with Burkitt`s lymphoma of the pyloric antrum. The patient responded very well to chemotherapy and he did not develop tumor lysis syndrome. Based on this case report, gastric Burkitt`s lymphoma might be included in the differential diagnoses of pediatric patients who experience vomiting that results in significant weight loss.

Los compuestos de defensa indirectos, denominados compuestos volátiles de plantas inducidos por herbívoros (HIPV por su sigla en inglés), al atraer fauna benéfica, son una de las herramientas de control biológico efectivas para la agregación de enemigos naturales de plagas claves. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la atracción de formulaciones sintéticas de cuatro HIPV principales: [salicilato de metilo (MeSa), benzaldehído (B), linalool (L) y farneseno (F)], solos y en combinaciones binarias (MeSa + B; MeSa + F; MeSa + L; F + B; B + L; F + L) a tres depredadores de áfidos de las familias Chrysopidae, Coccinellidae y Syrphidae en una plantación de manzanas de la provincia Bursa, en Turquía. Este estudio representa la primera evidencia de la atracción que ejercen combinaciones únicas y binarias de HIPV sintéticas a depredadores de áfidos en un manzanar. Relativamente, un mayor número de coccinélidos fue capturado por los tratamientos individuales de B y F en comparación con otras combinaciones de HIPV. Los individuos de crisópidos fueron más atraídos significativamente a las trampas cebadas con estos HIPV sólos. Además, la combinación binaria de MeSa + L atrajo significativamente más sírfidos que sus tratamientos únicos y trampas de control. Por lo tanto, se encontró que algunos de los HIPV evaluados tenían un valor potencial en la atracción de depredadores de áfidos en los manzanos.

Published: January 2020

A estrutura social e os padrões de normalidade refletem diretamente as relações de poder e a naturalização de algumas normas em detrimento de outras. Temos no Brasil uma heteronormatividade compulsória vigente, que se apresenta também dentro da escola, nos conteúdos ensinados e nas condutas de comportamento induzidas ou exigidas. O presente artigo discute esse tema no panorama nacional de forma mais ampla e na região de Sorocaba, em particular. Nesse contexto local, a heteronormatividade tem sido afirmada e reafirmada através de aprovações de leis que desconsideram a identidade de gênero e de medidas que reforçam o preconceito e discriminação em torno de diversas formas de expressão da sexualidade e gênero. Esse desrespeito e as diferentes formas de violências dele advindas são desfavoráveis à saúde mental e física de pessoas que não se enquadram na cisheteronormatividade, fazendo então da escola um ambiente potencialmente lesivo a alunos e funcionários LGBT. Ao mesmo tempo, há a possibilidade de a escola exercer um papel protetivo, ao promover o debate e educação sobre sexualidade, o que tem sido pauta de movimentos sociais sorocabanos ao reivindicarem mudanças nas leis e diminuição da influência do conservadorismo presente no meio político local. Palavras-chave: Travestis. Transexuais. Heteronormatividade. Saúde Mental. Transfobia na escola.ABSTRACTThe social structure and patterns of normality reflect directly the relations of power and naturalization of some norms in detriment of others. There is a prevailing compulsory heteronormativity, which also occurs into the school, within the limits taught and conducts of induced or required behaviors. The present article discusses the theme in the national panorama in a broader way and in the region of Sorocaba, in particular way. In this local context, the heteronormativity has been affirmed and reaffirmed through approvals of laws that disregard gender identity and policies that reinforce prejudice and discrimination in the senses of the expressions of sexuality and gender. This disrespect and the different forms of violence that come from it, are unfavorable to mental and physical health of people that doesn’t fit in the cisheteronormativity, making the school to become a harmfull place to LGBT studants and employers. At the same time, there is a possibility of a protective role of school, while promoting debate and education about sexuality, which has been some of the schedule of social moviments of Sorocaba, that claim for chances in the law and for decrease of the influence of conservatism in the local political environment.Keywords: Transvestite.

Os modelos de capitalismo vêm exercendo acentuada influência na matriz de formação dos profissionais da saúde, obstando uma formação profissional humanizada em suas bases pedagógicas, agudizando condições das mais variadas, refletindo na vertente da saúde, tanto no direito como na realização dos serviços em si. O efeito prático dessa relação impõe distorções que ganham vulto e significância e proporcionalmente destituem Direitos Humanos já consolidados como garantidores de direitos individuais e coletivos no que concerne à tutela da vida. Consequentemente a saúde, o bem de maior significância, que vem sendo cada vez mais mitigada numa perspectiva reducionista para realização de metas quantificadas e mensuradas, capazes de aferir valores distintos, determináveis e divisíveis da vida humana, se presta como marcadores os quais vem permeando a formação do profissional da saúde arraigando a disputa entre quantidade e qualidade, num modelo hegemônico que pretende comportar a formação profissional conciliando-a com diretrizes do mercado capitalista, consubstanciando-se numa modalidade de capital-social, um amálgama intercorrente a várias formas de capital humano, emergindo como o paradoxo próprio produzido no interior da matriz neocapitalista.Palavras-chave: Educação Profissional.

Authors: Corrêa Paula , Oliveira Paulo Antônio Barros
Published: January 2020

Esta pesquisa, quantitativa e de caráter ecológico, explorou um banco de dados oficial Estadual, e verificou uma série de características do perfil dos servidores públicos de Santa Catarina que se afastam do trabalho para licença de tratamento de saúde. Através dela foi possível constatar as principais causas que levam o servidor público ao absenteísmo do trabalho. Desde causas osteomusculares, que frequentemente são encontradas em estudos do gênero, até causas mentais e comportamentais que têm se apresentado cada vez mais corriqueiras no ambiente laboral. O estudo também corrobora com diversos autores citados, que tratam do absenteísmo ao trabalho com forte correlação ao adoecimento do trabalhador da área da saúde. Observa-se que há grande necessidade de haver maior entendimento destes dados visando buscar estratégias de intervenção para que o ambiente laboral do servidor público, seja visto como um universo de bem-estar, realização e evolução profissional e pessoal, e não tão somente como um meio de produção de serviços.Palavras-chave: Absenteísmo.

Because of this, it was possible to see the main causes that lead the civil servant to work absenteeism. Sometimes from musculoskeletal causes, which are often found in gender studies, others to mental and behavioral causes that have become increasingly often in the workplace environment. The study also meets with several authors cited, which deal with work absenteeism and its strong correlation to the health worker illness. It is observed that there is a wide need for greater understanding of these data in order to seek intervention strategies so that the work environment of the public servant, is seen as a universe of well-being, achievement and professional and personal evolution, and not only as a means of production or services.Keywords: Absenteeism.

Published: January 2020

Hole cleaning of drilled hole section of planned oil or gas well is considered as a major part of optimization of rate of penetration (ROP). ROP significantly depends on hole cleaning of drilled hole section. Hole cleaning can minimize hole problems such as stuck pipe incidents, drilling cuttings accumulation, torque and drag, erratic equivalent circulating density (ECD) in annulus, wellbore instability, tight spot and hole conditions and improves well drilling performance to maximum limit of rate of penetration which depends on rig equipment as well, however, hole cleaning will help to utilize maximum output of those equipment to achieve satisfactory performance.

In addition, hole cleaning contributes effectively to optimize rig performance as well. It can optimize running time of casings, cementing and well displacement. Hole cleaning is practical more than theoretical and it requires immediate intervention for ensuring efficient hole cleaning to have optimized performance of rate of penetration. In order to achieve proper hole cleaning efficiency, it must be planned and engineered in well design. A new hole cleaning automated models or indexes were developed to monitor, optimize and alert drilling team to realize and recognize and perform an immediate intervention to optimize or control well drilling and operations performance.

Drilling parameters and fluid rheology were collected and studied to come up with efficient hole cleaning models. Collected parameters were compared with other hole cleaning models parameters and rate of penetration to assign strong, qualitative and quantitative relationships that support developed models. The hole cleaning model (or hole cleaning efficiency index) can be automated and provide general idea about hole cleaning efficiency applied in drilled hole section and optimized drilling rate. The developed models were applied in challenging hole sections and showed improvement in well drilling and operations performance. Similarly, it has shown improvement of drilling rate more than 50%.
Application of Machine-Learning to Construct Equivalent Continuum Models from High-Resolution Discrete-Fracture Models
Authors: He Xupeng , Santoso Ryan , Hoteit Hussein
Published: January 2020

Modeling fluid flow in fractured media is of importance in many disciplines, including subsurface water management and petroleum reservoir engineering. Detailed geological characterization of a fractured reservoir is commonly described by a discrete-fracture model (DFM), in which the fractures and rock-matrix are explicitly represented by unstructured grid elements. Traditional static-based and flow-based upscaling methods used to generate equivalent-continuum models from DFM suffer from low accuracy and high computational cost, respectively. This work introduces a new deep-learning technique based on neural networks to accelerate upscaling of discrete-fracture models.

The objective of this work is to automate the process of permeability upscaling from detailed discrete-fracture characterizations. We build an "image-to-value" model to map the nonlinear relationship between high-resolution DFM images, provided as input, and the equivalent-continuum model (output), which comprises the predicted equivalent permeability of each grid-block. The proposed upscaling workflow incorporates the generation of the training datasets, design of the neural network architecture, and the validation process. The implemented deep neural networks consist of 20 layers including 18 hidden layers. Good quality input data and suitable network structure are crucial to obtaining a successful trained model. Therefore, high-resolution simulations were used to generate the training set. A training-validating process is conducted to update of training data and to optimize the network architecture until the trained model reaches an accuracy exceeding 95%.

We first verify the deep learning-based (DL-based) approach by applying it to a set of single rotating fractures with known analytical solutions. We then demonstrate it on a synthetic DFM including connected and disconnected fractures, and on a DFM from an actual outcrop. We compare the method performance to reference fully-resolved solutions and to an advanced flow-based upscaling method, referred to as a multi-boundary fracture upscaling method. In the tested cases, simulation results show that the DL-based method is computational more efficiency than the flow-based method by two orders of magnitude without significant loss of accuracy.

This work demonstrates the potential of a physics-based DL approach for the upscaling of high-resolution images of fractured media. The proposed DL approach is more accurate than the static-based upscaling methods and more efficient than the flow-based upscaling methods, and therefore, has the potential to be used to improve the computational performance of CPU-intensive upscaling methods.

Authors: Anabtawi Manal Fathi
Published: January 2020

This paper explores the influence that the Syrian crisis has on hosting community psycho-social in low income areas in Amman, Capital of Jordan. Case study was chosen as a design that would support a wider and in-depth exploration because it would be able to address the sensitivity of the issue; based on data from a qualitative study involving ten focus groups conducted from July to October 2017. Available reports and researches have investigated Syrian refugee needs and experiences, while few studies have explored the experiences of Jordanians in a hosting community, especially their psycho-social. In this paper, researcher argues that policy makers and service providers have to pay attention to hosting community experiences; especially their psycho-social. Paper concludes that Jordanians living in low income areas in Amman have been influenced by the Syrian crisis; suffering from  frustration and despair, fears, anger, low self-esteem and hopelessness.

The Reality of Using Modern Teaching Methods in Teaching Arabic for Speakers of other Languages from Teachers’ Perspective
Authors: Rababah Ibrahim Hassan Mohamed
Published: January 2020

The current study aims at finding out the reality of using modern teaching methods in teaching Arabic for speakers of other languages from teachers’ perspective in the Language Center at the University of Jordan in terms of its availability and use as well as finding out the effect of variables such as qualification, work experience, and sex. The sample of the study included 26 teachers. The researcher uses a descriptive and analytical method because it is appropriate for the study. To achieve the goals of the study, the researcher designed a tool for the study that is made up of two parts; the first of which includes 23 modern teaching methods to show their availability and use. The second of which are the criteria that have to be taken into consideration when using a modern teaching method. To analyze the results of the study and to process its data statistically, arithmetic averages and standard deviations have been calculated. These findings show the reality of modern teaching methods in the Language Center at the University of Jordan. They also indicate that the use of modern teaching methods in teaching Arabic to speakers of other languages is restricted to a certain number of them, and that other methods are available.The findings also indicate that there are no statistically significant differences due to qualification except for the modern teaching methods and their relation to teachers as well as learners. The findings also indicate that thereare no statistically significant differences due to sex except for the relationship of modern teaching methods to teachers as well as to learners, which are in favor of females. The findings indicate that there are substantial statistical differences due to different experience and in favor of experienced teachers with 11 years of experience and more. Based on these findings, the researcher recommendsintroducing more modern teaching methods in teaching Arabic to speakers of other languages. He also recommends carrying out similar studies to identify the perspectives of teachers, learners, and the administration of centers and institutes concerned with teaching Arabic for speakers of other languages. These studies are necessaryto find out the reality of the use of modern teaching methods and their importance in teaching Arabic to speakers of other languages. The researcher stresses the necessity of having special labs for modern teaching methods in language centers.
