Effects of Destination Image on Revisit Intention: The Intermediate Role of Satisfaction & Words of Mouth (Empirical Evidence in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam).
Authors: Phi Ho Dinh , Quang Thanh Ngo , Thi Phuong Thao Huynh , Linh Nhon Nguyen
Published: January 2022

Most of the tourist destinations are facing tourist loyalty and expanding market share. Research on factors influencing visitor satisfaction and revisit intention to the tourist destination has not been given sufficient attention, especially the relationship between destination image and satisfaction, word of mouth, and revisit intention. This is a challenging problem for tourism researchers and managers. This study uses a survey of 350 domestic tourists staying at least 3 days in the city and applying a structural modeling approach in the analysis. The results reveal that factors of the destination image positively impact satisfaction, word of mouth, and revisit intention. Components of the destination image include (i) Cognitive image; (ii) Affective images; and (iii) Tangible images.
The Effects of Financial Development and Governance Quality on Economic Growth: Evidence from Developed and Developing Countries
Authors: Filfilan Assef
Published: January 2022

This paper investigates the effects of financial development on economic growth with especial emphasis on the role played by governance quality. An indicator of governance built from the Principal Component factor method (PCF) and which takes into account the simultaneous effects of political, institutional and economic governance, is used in mediating such relationship. The study is carried out using a two-step system dynamic GMM method for 93 developed and developing countries over the 1996–2018 period. The findings from the study revealed that the effects of financial development on economic growth various according to the nature of governance and the level of development of countries.  Results show a non-significant effect of financial development on economic growth for low-income countries and a positively significant impact in middle and high-income ones. Estimations demonstrate also that good governance plays an important and significant role in mediating the finance-growth relationship. Finally, results demonstrate that there is a certain threshold level that countries must achieve to make government domestic credit to private sector favorable to economic growth.
Muamalah Market Disruption in The Middle of Modern Markets in Islamic Economic Perspective
Authors: Burhanuddin Chairul Iksan , Kara Muslimin H. , Lutfi Mukhtar , Syaharuddin Syaharuddin
Published: January 2022

The Muamalah market and the use of dinars and dirhams in the community are not merely tools for buying and selling activities. However, it contains a noble goal, namely, to provide benefits to humans, especially in buying and selling activities. The phenomenon of the muamalah market seems to be the answer to concerns about the existence and monopoly activities of conventional markets (eg malls and supermarkets). The results of this study (qualitative) reveal: first, the muamalah market has been disrupted due to the inability to compete with the conventional market presence and the delay in responding to the conventional market presence, especially from the aspect of using technology. Second, the muamalah market does not yet have a fixed place. Third, the use of dinars and dirhams during their implementation does not yet have legality in their use. Fourth, the government still has not looked at the muamalah market to make an economic contribution to the country. The implication of this research is the urgency of the presence of the muamalah market and the use of dinars and dirhams. The use of technology will provide muamalah market opportunities and the use of dinars and dirhams so that they can be useful for the community. So that this can be the answer to economic problems in the community and even for the country.
EXPLORING BROWN AND LEVINSON’S POLITENESS THEORY AND THE FORM-FUNCTION FIT IN REQUESTS IN JANE AUSTEN’S PRIDE AND PREJUDICE FROM A RELEVANCE-THEORETIC, CONSTRUCTIONIST, AND CONTRASTIVE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Martínez López Elena del Carmen
Published: January 2022

The aim of this work is to demonstrate and illustrate the pervasive existence of points of convergence between literature and language in general and form and meaning in particular. Specifically, the connection between language and literature is explored with specific reference to one of the germinal works of English literature, Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice in the light of the principles and taxonomies of Brown and Levinson’s Politeness Theory, with special focus on requests. A further twist added to the analysis presented in this work comes from a relatively fine-nuanced contrastive (English-Spanish) analysis of requests strategies using as the database of analysis a Spanish translation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice (Rodríguez, 2018).

Socialist idea and methods of constitutional implementation in 1918
Authors: Korovin Kirill Sergeevich
Published: January 2022

This article demonstrates that socialism was the key political concept for the nascent Soviet constitutionalism. The matter is that the political-legal ideas of V. I. Lenin underlied the ideology of Bolshevism, which became the basis of the entire legal system of the Soviet state. The author traces the evolution of socialist ideas and their reception by the Russian social democracy. In the Bolshevik party, the idea of a socialist society has acquired rather utopian and radical forms than the initial European model. This was associated with the fact that socioeconomic, political and cultural conditions dictated certain framework for the implementation of socialism. The Communist Party had to establish the socialist principles and fundamentals of the Soviet society on the constitutional level. This led to robust debates on the issue in the constitutional commission. The discourse that emerged due to the adoption of the Constitution of the RSFSR of 1918 is poorly reflected in the scientific publications; therefore, the author provides brief biographical data of the key members of the constitutional commission. This allows correlating the political-legal ideas with the historical and personal contexts. It is worth noting that such concepts as “socialist society”, “association” and “union” underlie the comprehension of the essence of state and law. This served as the basis for further discussion of the goals and objectives of the councils, first steps, as well as rights and responsibilities of citizens.

Authors: BRENNER Koloman
Published: January 2022

Die deutschen Minderheiten in Westeuropa sind von der allgemeinen Entwicklung nach 1945 begünstigt in einer stabilen Lage, dagegen versuchen die deutschen Minderheiten in Ost-Mittel-Europa seit der politischen Wende 1989 ihr Schicksal zu verbessern. Die wichtigste Fragestellung des Beitrags lautet, ob eine Revitalisierung der deutschen Sprache und Kultur in diesen Ländern mit Erfolg durchgeführt werden kann? Es werden die bestimmenden Faktoren elaboriert, die dazu notwendig sind und auch die These wird aufgestellt, dass die regionalen Standardvarietäten als Zielsprache in diesem Prozess berücksichtigt werden sollten, nicht statt, aber als ergänzende Sprachvarietät zu einer eher südlich geprägten Standardvarietät.

Paul ärgert sich, nervt sich aber nicht. Semantische Merkmale deutscher Objekt-Experiencer-Verben und ihr Einfluss auf Antikausativkonstruktionen
Authors: WISKANDT Niklas
Published: January 2022

Objekt-Experiencer-Verben zeigen sprachübergreifend verschiedene syntaktische Besonderheiten, bilden jedoch keine homogene Klasse. Dieser Aufsatz beschäftigt sich mitAntikausativkonstruktionen solcher Verben, die im Deutschen durch ein Reflexivum markiert werden, wie z.B. in Paul freut sich. Diese sind mit einigen Objekt-Experiencer-Verben möglich, jedoch nicht mit allen: Von ärgern ist eine Antikausativkonstruktion möglich, vom semantisch nahen nerven jedoch nicht. Basierend auf Korpusdaten sowie Akzeptabilitäts- und Interpretationsurteilen durch Muttersprachler wird der Einfluss einiger semantischer Faktoren überprüft, um diese Asymmetrie zu erklären.

Bu çalışmada, Borsa İstanbul’da işlem gören teknoloji firmalarının 2016-2020 yıllarına ait bilanço ve gelir tablosu kalemlerinden yararlanılarak oran analizi yöntemiyle finansal performansları tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmanın amacı firmaların finansal performanslarını ölçmek olup, kapsamı dolayısıyla da Covid-19 salgınının firmaların mali (finansal) tabloları üzerindeki etkisini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Çalışmada kullanılan veriler Kamuyu Aydınlatma Platformu (KAP) ve Finnet internet sitesinden elde edilmiş olup Microsoft (MS) Excel bilgisayar programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada oran analizi kapsamında firmaların likidite, faaliyet, finansal yapı ve kârlılık oranları incelenmiştir. Dönemler içinde hesaplanan firmaların likidite oranları standartlara göre uygun yani likidite durumlarının yeterli olduğu görülmektedir. Covid-19 salgının etkili olduğu 2020 yılında firmaların cari ve likidite oranlarında düşüş görülse de yine de kritik değerlerin üzerinde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ele alınan dönem içerisinde stok devir hızı ve dönen varlık devir hızı yüksek seviyelerdeyken 2020 yılında düşüş yaşanmıştır. Finansal yapı oranları incelendiğinde firmaların sermaye yapısının genellikle öz kaynaklardan oluştuğu borçlanma oranlarında ise kısa vadeli yabancı kaynak payının yüksek olduğu görülmektedir. Kârlılık oranları incelendiğinde ise yıllar içerisinde firmaların dalgalı bir seyirde ilerlediği ve 2018-2019 yıllarında negatif seviyelere düştüğü gözlemlenmektedir. Ancak salgın döneminde firmaların karlılık oranlarının yükseldiği tespit edilmiştir.

Monetary policy application and stock market reaction during Covid-19 Pandemic: Evidence from Turkey
Authors: HAYKIR Özkan , ÖZTÜRK ÇETENAK Özlem
Published: January 2022

We investigate whether the pandemic announcement and three monetary policies changed after that (reducing target interest rate) have an impact on the return, liquidity, and volatility in the Turkish stock market. We find that there is a negative reaction to the pandemic announcement and the announcement of the first decline in interest rates, but we discover a positive reaction to the second and third reduction in interest rates in terms of stock return and liquidity. Moreover, the stock return and liquidity of firms that are listed on the BIST-100 index and have associated derivatives are affected less by the pandemic. Results also suggest that the smallest, illiquid, volatile, and highly searched companies on Google are affected more by the pandemic announcement and the first decline in the interest rate.
Designing a Virtual Platform for Modeling Nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks at the Central Processing Unit Level
Authors: Ghaidaa Mohammad Esber, Mothanna Alkubeily, Samer Sulaiman Ghaidaa Mohammad Esber, Mothanna Alkubeily, Samer Sulaiman
Published: January 2022

Wireless sensor network simulation programs provide representation for an actual system, without needing to deploy real testbed which is highly constrained by the available budget, and the direct operations inside physical layer in most of these programs are hidden and work implicitly. This is what motivated us to build a kernel for a virtual simulation platform to be able to simulate protocol operations and algorithms at the node processing unit level, The proposed system aims to observe the execution of operations at the low level of the wireless sensor physical infrastructure with the ability to modify at this level. That give the improvers of wireless sensor nodes the ability to test their ideas without needing to use physical environment. We have built the functionality operations which are related to the platform kernel at several stages. We defined (as a first step) the essential operations inside a virtual microprocessor that uses a partial set pf MIPS instructions, and built the kernel of minimized virtual WSN simulator depending on the proposed microprocessor, that means we can add any number of nodes inside the GUI of the WSN simulator kernel, and these nodes use the proposed virtual microprocessor . Then we improved this platform by adding the instruction set of a real microprocessor that is used in wireless sensor network nodes. Finally, (and to ease and simplify the interaction operation between program GUI of the platform kernel and the user), we have built simplified compiler that allows user to deal with microprocessor GUI inside each node, and to clarify protocol and algorithm operations by a set of orders and functions without needing to deal with low level language (Assembly language) in a direct way. The simulation results have presented high flexibility and performance to this platform in observing the operation sequence inside wireless sensor nodes at assembly level, in addition to focus on some parameters that are related to microprocessor inside each node.
A Comparative Study of Services Placement Algorithms in Future Networks
Authors: Manar Yacoub Al-Jabr, Ali Diab, Jomana diab Manar Yacoub Al-Jabr, Ali Diab, Jomana diab
Published: January 2022

The study aimed to analyze and compare several algorithms in the context of networks services placement, and then proposed a self-organized dynamic heuristic algorithm adaptable to continually changing network conditions in order to achieve the ideal placement of services replicas in future networks. It is known that future networks demand a high degree of self-organization to keep pace with ongoing changes while maintaining performance optimized. One of the important challenges in this context is the services placement problem. Service placement issue refers to the selection of the most appropriate network node for hosting a service. The ideal placement of services replicas reduces the cost of serving customers, improves connectivity between clients and servers as well as the use of available resources. The study summarized the results of qualitative comparison between several placement algorithms and refers to the most important requirements to be taken into account when implementing the placement algorithm. Generally, each service has its own placement technique, and the action taken by a specific service may affect other services decisions and force them to adapt. There is an urgent need to  a management service for managing services replicas to make the optimal placement decision. This service should work in a distributed manner and does not require comprehensive knowledge about the  network. It is also characterized by its ability to adapt to changing network conditions in terms of load and topology. Other services coordinate with the management service about replicating or migrating actions,  thus services will be offered  at a minimized cost.

Adaptive transmission power level algorithm according to random deployment of nodes in WSN
Authors: Bassim Ali Oumran, Muhammad Abdullah Rastanawi Bassim Ali Oumran, Muhammad Abdullah Rastanawi
Published: January 2022

Wireless sensor nodes are generally deployed randomly in hostile, harsh and inaccessible environments. For this reason, the sensor nodes are supposed to operate over long periods of time without human intervention in order to extend the life of the network as much as possible, and also, it is not possible to restore the nodes or change their positions after their deployment, but by changing the transmitting power level and redeploying a new nodes above the deployment Previously, the network performance improves and we guarantee that the deployed nodes are not lost, and we also guarantee the operation of the network as a whole. The researcher has developed an algorithm "Adaptive transmission power level according to random deployment (ATPLRD)", where the presented algorithm includes determining the power levels relative to random deployment and identifying possible paths in the network in order to reach high interconnection between nodes to achieve the least number of published nodes at the lowest energy levels for the nodes, and also determines the most important nodes in the network whose exit or failure leads to the collapse of the network, and determining The boundary nodes of the network, as well as the weakest coverage areas, which represent gaps in the network, and from it determines the number of nodes needed to deploy within these gaps as few as possible. The results of the study showed that the imposed algorithm is effective in all of the above, and we focus in this research on adaptively determining the transmission energy levels of the nodes and reducing the number of deployed nodes that make the network work effectively and improving the quality of deployment by deploying additional nodes within the Reigon of Interest. The results showed achieving the least number of deployed nodes at the lowest transmission power level and achieving high interconnection between nodes. An overall energy consumption improvement of 31.25% was achieved.

Authors: Maharrani Ratih Hafsarah , Supriyono Abdul Rohman , Syafirullah Lutfi
Published: January 2022

Magang adalah proses penerapan bidang keilmuan dan keterampilan yang diperoleh di kampus pada dunia industry. Dalam pelaksanaannya, saat mahasiswa selesai melaksanakan magang ada beberapa mengeluhkan bahwa perusahaan tempat magang tidak sesuai dengan standar yang diinginkan, tidak sesuai bidang serta beban kerja yang berlebih sehingga dalam pelaksanaanya mahasiswa merasa tidak bisa optimal dalam menggunakan kemampuan yang dimiliki. Hal ini dikarenakan adanya subjektifitas dalam penentuan tempat magang, mahasiswa memilih sendiri tempat magang tersebut yang terkadang belum mengetahui job desk yang akan dikerjakan. Selain itu koordinator magang jurusan merekomendasikan tempat magang berdasarkan penilaian pembimbing magang saat visitasi padahal tidak mengetahui keadaan sebenarnya yang telah terlaksana. Sehingga dalam hal ini dibutuhkan adanya sebuah sistem yang mampu membantu dalam pengambilan keputusan rekomendasi tempat magang. Penelitian ini dibuat dengan menerapkan metode pengembangan system Rapid Development Prototyping (RAD) dan penilaian rekomendasi diperoleh menggunakan metode MAUT (Multi Attribute Utility Theory).

Sistem neuromuscular terdiri dari saraf motorik dan otot rangka yang menghasilkan aktivitas kelistrikan pada otot dan menyebabkan otot dapat berkontraksi dan menghasilkan gerak tubuh. Gangguan neuromuscular dapat terjadi pada sel saraf yang dinamakan Neuropathy dan pada sel otot yang dinamakan Myopathy. Aktivitas kelistrikan pada otot direkam melalui suatu alat yang dinamakan Electromiography (EMG). Pada penelitian ini dilakukan identifikasi sinyal EMG pasien sehat, myopathy dan neuropathy. Neuropathy merupakan gangguan yang disebabkan oleh kerusakan sel saraf. Myopathy merupakan gangguan yang disebabkan oleh kerusakan sel otot. Penanganan dan pengobatan myopathy dan neuropathy berbeda, sehingga diperlukan suatu metode yang dapat mendiagnosis dengan tepat jenis gangguan yang dialami. Analisis karakteristik sinyal EMG dilakukan menggunakan metode dekomposisi Wavelet Discrete Dyadic dan variasi fitur Root Mean Square (RMS), approximate entropy, spectral entropy dan Singular Value Decompotition (SVD) entropy. Sinyal karakteristik yang diperoleh di identifikasi menggunakan metode klasifikasi Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). Performa ANFIS dalam mengidentifikasi karakteristik sinyal EMG pada masing-masing koefisien dekomposisi, menghasilkan performa terbaik pada koefisien aproksimasi ke-5 (cA5), dengan akurasi 100%, sensitivitas 100% dan spesivitas 100%.

Sistem inventory adalah serangkaian aktivitas dalam melakukan proses pengelolaan data barang yang terdapat pada penyimpanan yang memiliki peran dan fungsi krusial untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan dalam mengelola, mengontrol, dan memudahkan pelaporan data barang. Sistem inventory diperlukan salah satunya untuk memanajemen persediaan stok vaksin. Saat ini manajemen persediaan vaksin pada dinas kesehatan hingga ke level puskesmas masih ditemukan permasalahan, seperti belum adanya standar perhitungan kuantitas pengadaan dan safety stock yang optimal sehingga persediaan menjadi tidak merata di beberapa wilayah yang menyebabkan terjadinya kelebihan dan kekosongan stok. Hal ini membuat pengelolaan biaya persediaan vaksin tidak efisien. Oleh karenanya, diperlukan sistem inventory yang mampu meningkatkan efisiensi pengelolaan stok vaksin yang optimal dengan meminimumkan biaya. Penelitian yang dilakukan, yaitu membangun smart inventory system menerapkan metode economic order quantity untuk mengoptimalkan persediaan dan mengimplementasikan teknologi RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) berbasis Internet of Things (IoT) untuk mengefisiensi pencatatan pergerakan stok secara otomatis. Sistem dianalisis dan dirancang menggunakan metode SDLC (System Development Life Cycle) sehingga spesifikasi kebutuhan diidentifikasi secara jelas agar dapat memecah permasalahan. Model yang digunakan adalah waterfall methodology. Selanjutnya dilakukan pengujian terhadap smart inventory system. Berdasarkan pengujian yang dilakukan menunjukkan smart inventory system memenuhi kebutuhan dalam pengelolaan stok vaksin secara efektif dan efisien dengan performance error yang terjadi hanya sebesar 1,98%.

Total Synthesis of Cochlearol B via a Catellani- and Visible Light-Enabled [2+2]-Cycloaddition Approach
Authors: Schindler Corinna , Richardson Alistair , Vogel Trenton , Traficante Emily , Glover Kason
Published: January 2022

A new, twelve-step approach towards the meroterpenoid cochlearol B is reported. This strategy takes advantage of a palladium-catalyzed Catellani reaction of a complex chromenyl triflate and a subsequent visible light-mediated [2+2]-cycloaddition to form the central bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane core of cochlearol B. Notably, careful selection and tuning of the photocycloaddition precursor proved crucial to differentiate between cyclopropanation reactions, [4+2] cycloadditions, and selective [2+2]-photocycloadditions.

Chemical bonds and noncovalent interactions are extraordinarily important concepts in chemistry and beyond. Using density-based quantities to describe them has a long history in the literature, yet none can satisfactorily describe the entire spectrum of interactions from strong chemical bonds to weak van der Waals forces. In this work, employing Pauli energy as the theoretical foundation, we fill in that knowledge gap. Our results show that the newly established density-based index can describe single and multiple covalent bonds, ionic bonds, metallic bonds, and different kinds of noncovalent interactions, all with unique and readily identifiable signature shapes. Two new descriptors, NBI (nonbonding and bonding identification) index and USI (ultra-strong interaction) index, have been introduced in this work. Together with NCI (noncovalent interaction) and SCI (strong covalent interaction) indexes already available in the literature, a density-based description of both chemical bonds and noncovalent interactions is accomplished.

Now-days increasing solid or liquid wastes are major problems in developing country therefore utilization of all these wastes are required because of its impact on the environment and as well as on agriculture. These wastes are decomposed and stabilized through composting, vermicomposting, anaerobic digestion, recycling and reuse. Solid wastes act as an organic fertilizer, nutrient supplier, and media for nursery and also helps in improving the physical, chemical and microbiological activity in agricultural soils. Reuse of wastewater helps in reducing water crisis in agriculture. Poultry wastes are used as organic fertilizer, feed for livestock, biogas production, products for commercial purposes.

Labour shortage is pushing the smallholder farms to seek for labour saving strategies for planting and weed control. With this point of view, this study was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of mulching from previous crop relative to herbicides and hand weeding on weed control and grain yield of rice transplanted in non-puddled soil after mustard in the northern Bangladesh during January to May in 2014 and 2015. Rice cv. BRRI dhan28 was transplanted with a combination of six weed control practices [Conventional tillage (CT)+3 hand weeding (HW) (Control); Glyphosate (Gly)+strip tillage (ST)+1HW; Gly+ST+pre-emergence (PE) herbicide (pendimethalin); Gly+ST+post-emergence (PO) herbicide (Ethoxysulfuron-ethyl); Gly+ST+PE+PO; and Gly+ST+weed-free (WF)], and two levels mulch of previous mustard [M0: no mulch and M50: 50% mulch (875 kg ha-1). Over the two years, CT produced 30% higher weed density and 40% higher weed biomass than ST. Spraying herbicides at PE followed by at PO in ST reduced weed density by 45% and weed biomass by 70%. Retention of 50% mulch reduced weed density by 20% and biomass by 34%. The combination of applied glyphosate, ST, followed by sequential application of PE and PO herbicides and the retention of 50% mulch achieved the highest weed control efficacy. Furthermore, this practice produced the 12% higher yield and 47% higher economic returns relative to manual weed control in conventional tillage. These results demonstrate the value of mulch integrated with pre-plant, PE and PO herbicides in controlling weeds and improving grain yield and return of rice transplanted in a non-puddled soil.

Authors: Abdul Sattar Aneeza
Published: January 2022

Level of contaminants (Nickel and Lead) in aquatic ecosystems has increased due to discharge of industrial effluents in water. Hence, there is a need to remove heavy metals (Nickel and Lead) from the water. For removing heavy metals from water, hybrid biosorbent (Almond shell and Pleurotus sajor caju) was prepared. To prepare a novel hybrid biosorbent (Almond shell and Pleurotus sajor caju) for the removal of nickel and lead from waste water the study was conducted in the department of chemistry, university of agriculture Faisalabad. The biomass was collected from local market of Chiniot. Hybrid matrix (Almond shell and Pleurotus sajor caju) and heavy metals (Nickel and Lead) were prepared. Waste water was interacted with the developed hybrid metals (Nickel and Lead) and hybrid bio sorbent (almond shell and P.sajor caju).The maximum adsorption capacity q(mg/g) of nickel and lead obtained at l0mgL-l concentration is in the following order; hybrid biosorbent(87)>P.sajor caju(65)> almond shell(54) and hybrid biosorbent(85)>P.sajor caju(57)>almond shell(45). The maximum uptake for nickel obtained by almond shell, P.sajor caju, hybrid biosorbent (56%), (66%), (90%) for lead and (47%), (61%), (89%) for nickel. The adsorption of nickel and lead follows the 2nd order kinetic model. FTIR spectra show that there are various functional groups, active sites present in hybrid biosorbent (Almond shell and Pleurotus sajor caju). Maximum absorption of lead occurs at pH 5 and nickel at pH 3. The sorptions of heavy metals (Lead and Nickel) follow the pseudo 2nd order kinetic model. From the whole analysis it is concluded that Hybrid biosorbent calm of microbial and plant waste biomass was extremely functional in exclusion of lead and Nickel from wastewater.
