Povreda autorskog i srodnih prava na Internetu: osvrt na noviju praksu Evropskog suda pravde
Authors:   University of Belgrade Faculty of Law, Popović Dušan V.
Published: January 2025

New ways of using copyrighted works and subject-matter of related rights on the Internet bring to the courts a complex task of interpretation of concepts of „communication to the public/making available of “ and „reproduction“. Hyperlinking and video framing, used to direct the Internet users from one web-site to copyrighted works and subject-matter of related rights uploaded on the Internet with the consent of the right-owner or without such a consent, highlighted the need for a more precise definition of the concept of communication of a work to the public. The author analyzes the recent case law of the European Court of Justice, which developed and applied the criteria of „different technical means“ and „new public“, when interpreting the concept of communication to the public. These criteria are equally assessed in the context of national rules and case law of the EU Member States, as well as in the context of international copyright treaties. Furthermore, the paper analyzes the concept of reproduction of a copyrighted work and a subject-matter of related rights with respect to the application of a limitation of rights prescribed in order to enable a transmission in a computer network.
Predmeti ReDigi i UsedSoft: nekoliko odgovora i bar toliko neodgovorenih pitanja
Authors: Ivanišević Bogdan
Published: January 2025

The New York court in ReDigi reiterated the general proposition under United States copyright law that exhaustion of distribution right („the first sale doctrine“) applies vis-à-vis tangible copies of a copyright work, but not if digital copies of the work are placed onto market. Nothing in the judgment suggests that distribution of digital copies of a computer program – a matter not examined by the court – would be an exception to the rule. The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), in the UsedSoft case, ruled that distribution of digital copies of the computer program was subject to copyright exhaustion; it seems unlikely, however, that the CJEU would reach that same conclusion with respect to digital copies of other types of protected works. In the United States, the widely shared view that an apparent sale of a copy of a computer program in fact constitutes grant of licence pre-empts application of the first sale doctrine. The CJEU, in contrast, judged the purported licence to be a sale, thereby laying the basis for subsequent conclusion that the exhaustion rule applies. In both cases, the courts also recognized the right of reproduction as possibly infringed in the course of a „digital sale“ of the copy of a copyright work. The New York court concluded that infringement did occur, whereas the CJEU found that in the specific context the right of reproduction was not infringed, due to a narrow exception provided for in the Software Directive 2009/24. The New York court gave due consideration to extra-legal arguments in favour or against applicability of the first sale doctrine in the digital domain, but refrained from effectively assuming a legislator’s role; the CJEU has been criticized for doing exactly the opposite. Both in the U.S. and in the E.U., the debate about „digital exhaustion“ is, in fact, yet to develop.

Published: January 2025

Everybody in the world seems to be battling with anxiety, it has become one of the most common sources of morbidity both psychologically as well as physiologically. Anxiety disorders, that are diseases such as generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder and others are widespread in the whole world, affecting persons of different ages (World Health Organization, 2022). Until now, anxiety has been managed through psychotherapy and medications, and the two practices have specific drawbacks when it comes to availability, cost, and results. Hence, many people have surged towards seeking new approaches to mental health that are easily accessible, convenient and adaptable. In the last few years Machine Learning (ML) or AI-based Mobile phone applications have shown potential as interventions in digital mental health. Such applications use features like ML, NLP and analytics that provide immediate support to cope up with the symptoms of anxiety (Jones, 2023). Based on the user data, users receive CBT modules and components of mindfulness that are in need alongside mood tracking facilities, and all of these are available at the user’s preferred time. The advantages of AI applications are quite obvious in the circumstances where such applications create an opportunity for overcoming the barriers of the traditional treatment that is often expensive and takes too much time. Nonetheless, they are not problem-free as issues such as data privacy, perceived absence of human connection, together with algorithmic constraints of the interventions, can become a concern going forward. In the future, future improvements in virtual reality(VR) and other form of machine learning models associated with developing these applications improve on their effectiveness in offering more suitable support. This article explores the role of AI-driven mobile applications in the management of anxiety, examining their potential to complement traditional treatments and address ongoing challenges in mental health care. We also discuss the benefits, limitations, and future directions of AI-powered interventions in anxiety management, providing a comprehensive analysis of their role in the evolving landscape of digital mental health.
Exploring Fault Tolerance Strategies in Big Data Infrastructures and Their Impact on Processing Efficiency
Authors: Hazarika Akaash Vishal , Shah Mahak
Published: January 2025

As big data systems continue to grow in scale and complexity, ensuring fault tolerance while maintaining processing efficiency has become increasingly challenging. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of fault tolerance strategies in distributed big data infrastructures, examining three primary approaches: replication, checkpointing, and consensus algorithms. Through a systematic review of current implementations and case studies across major platforms including Apache Hadoop, Spark, and Flink, we evaluate the performance implications of these strategies using key metrics such as throughput, latency, and resource utilization. Our analysis reveals significant trade-offs between reliability and performance, particularly in write-intensive workloads where replication factors directly impact system performance. The paper also examines how different architectures, including client-server, peer-to-peer, and serviceoriented models, influence the effectiveness of fault tolerance mechanisms. Based on our findings, we propose recommendations for implementing fault tolerance at scale and identify emerging research directions, including the integration of machine learning for adaptive fault tolerance and the potential of hybrid approaches in managing the reliability-performance balance. This research contributes to the understanding of how organizations can optimize their fault tolerance strategies while maintaining acceptable processing efficiency in large-scale distributed systems.

Published: January 2025

This study evaluated selected physicochemical parameters and major inorganic nutrients of soil samples from ten specific sites in the Athi-Thwake River catchment area in November 2021 and January 2022 in Makueni County representing wet and dry seasons respectively. The average levels of the physicochemical parameters in the dry and wet seasons, for pH were 4.63 ± 0.25 and 4.43±0.18, electrical conductivities were 122±8.09 µS/cm and 216±2.70 µS/cm, percentage moisture contents were 14.19 ± 0.40 % and 27.92±0.56 % while the major inorganic nutrients levels were, nitrate-nitrogen at 0.24±0.04 mg/kg and 0.37±0.02 mg/kg, phosphate-phosphorous were 0.08±0.05 mg/kg and 0.07±0.03 mg/kg and potassium 1.02±0.15 mg/kg and 1.05±0.35 mg/kg respectively. In the two seasons; pH, electrical conductivities and moisture contents levels had no statistical difference with nitrate-nitrogen, phosphate-phosphorous and potassium (p>.05). The soil samples in both seasons had low major nutrients contents, indicating that the area is already experiencing significant erosion. To prevent further nutrient loss due to water runoff and leaching, soil conservation practices such as contour farming, terracing and cover cropping should be implemented to reduce erosion and retain nutrients in the soil.

Simple wire versus figure of 8 wire for sternal closure after sternotomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Rahayu Devi Agustini
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Sternotomy is associated with a range of complications, including instability, non-union, and infection, which are among the most frequent issues encountered. The standard closure method for median sternotomy involves the use of simple wires applied in either a figure-of-eight or a simple interrupted configuration. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of simple wires in a figure-of-eight pattern versus the simple wire technique for sternal closure following median sternotomy.
 
Methods: Data in this study were PubMed, Web of Science, Wiley, Cochrane, ProQuest, Mendeley, and ScienceDirect databases, covering the period from 2019 to 2024. This systematic review included comparative studies evaluating simple wire versus figure-of-eight techniques for sternal closure post-sternotomy. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager version 5.4.
 
Results
From an initial pool of 309 articles, 6 studies were identified as eligible for analysis. These studies collectively included 8,236 patients undergoing sternal closure with the figure-of-eight technique and 2,622 patients with the simple wire technique. The meta-analysis revealed a significantly higher rate of sternal dehiscence in patients treated with the simple wire technique compared to those using the figure-of-eight technique, with an odds ratio of 0.35 (95% CI, 0.15–0.81; p = 0.01).
 
Conclusion: Patients undergoing sternal closure with the simple wire technique exhibited higher rates of sternal dehiscence compared to those treated with the figure-of-eight method. The figure-of-eight wire technique significantly reduced the incidence of sternal dehiscence and appears to be a more effective method for sternal closure after median sternotomy.

In an era marked by escalating challenges such as climate change, resource scarcity, and social inequality, the imperative for sustainable leadership practices has intensified. This study explores the impact of sustainability leadership on staff performance in three major universities in Kano State Nigeria, and examines its influence on performance outcomes, societal impact, and environmental sustainability. Employing a descriptive survey methodology, the research investigates the relationship between sustainability leadership and organizational performance using two research instruments and formulating two hypotheses to test these relationships. Data collected from 150 staff members were analysed using the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient to measure statistical associations between sustainability leadership and staff performance. The findings reveal significant and positive correlations, indicating that universities led by sustainable leaders exhibit higher levels of employee job performance. Additionally, substantial positive relationships were identified between sustainability leadership and the advancement of environmental, social, and economic sustainability goals within these institutions. These results underscore the critical role of sustainable leadership in enhancing organizational effectiveness and promoting sustainable development outcomes. Leaders who integrate sustainability principles into their practices are well-positioned to drive positive impacts on employee engagement, organizational reputation, and resilience amid global challenges. This study contributes to the understanding of how sustainability leadership influences organizational performance in the Nigerian context, advocating for the adoption of sustainable leadership strategies to achieve business success and broader societal benefits. Future research should further explore the mechanisms through which sustainable leadership practices can be effectively implemented and scaled across diverse organizational settings, ensuring sustained positive impacts on both organizational and societal outcomes.

CONTACT STRESSES IN THE FOUNDATION OF A RETAINING WALL WHEN DETERMINING ITS STABILITY
Authors: DOLGACHEV Mikhail , POPOV POPOV
Published: January 2025

This paper investigates a gravity retaining wall of cantilever type with a vertical front face and an inclined rear face. An analysis of shear and soil pressure on the retaining wall is performed, considering one-sided interaction with the foundation. The study focuses on examining the magnitudes of the resultant normal and tangential contact stresses in the foundation of the wall. Optimal parameters for the length of the cantilever retaining wall foundation on the active soil pressure side are determined to ensure structural stability. The moment when the structure becomes a geometrically changeable system is also identified. The finite element method (FEM) is used for numerical modeling, solving the unilateral contact with friction as a linear complementarity problem (LCP). Distributions of contact forces in the foundation of the wall and the dependencies of structural stability on the foundation length are presented.

Authors: RIMSHIN Vladimir , ANPILOV Sergey , ROSCHINA Svetlana , USANOV Sergey
Published: January 2025

In recent decades, information modeling has become one of the key elements of the construction industry, providing integration of various sections of design solutions into a single model. The article considers the advantages and disadvantages of using information models. Particular attention is paid to collisions in BIM design, arising due to data inconsistency between different sections of projects. The process of identifying and eliminating collisions is illustrated in the example of a low-rise building using Navisworks and Revit software systems. In the considered case, intersections in the model were found both between construction elements and between engineering networks. Some domestic analogs of foreign software are given, the introduction of which will make it possible in time to fully ensure technological sovereignty in this area. It is noted that BIM-technologies not only increase the accuracy of design, but also contribute to innovative solutions to emerging problems, increasing the efficiency of construction. The article emphasizes the importance of information modeling both at the stage of project creation and in the subsequent operation of the facility, its role in improving the quality of design, optimization of construction and installation work, as well as the potential for further improvement of all processes, including the use of mobile technologies for rapid information exchange and communication. Potential benefits justify the costs, making information models essential for maintaining high standards of construction in modern conditions.

Evaluations of Dominant Leadership in Workplaces Are Associated with Paranoia
Authors: Horita Yutaka , Kawada Kotone
Published: January 2025

Lower social status is one of the social factors associated with paranoia—the belief that others have harmful intentions. From an evolutionary perspective, paranoia is an adaptive psychological mechanism for coping with social threats. Two types of social status have been theorized based on differences in the social influence of superiors on subordinates: prestige and dominance. Dominant superiors force their subordinates to obey them through threats, and subordinates are motivated to avoid these superiors. Conversely, subordinates voluntarily approach prestigious superiors to gain beneficial expertise. If paranoia functions as a response to social threats, it is strongly associated with evaluations of superiors’ dominance in an immediate environment. A web-based survey of full-time workers (N = 300) examined the correlations between paranoia, evaluations of dominance and prestige toward leaders, and willingness to learn from leaders. We distinguished between a familiar leader (a workplace supervisor) and a distant leader (a leader in the broader community). In support of our hypothesis, paranoia was positively associated with the evaluation of a familiar leader’s dominance, but not with that of a distant leader’s dominance. However, contrary to our prediction, paranoia was positively associated with willingness to learn from leaders regardless of the type of leader.

Published: January 2025

Background and study aims: The COVID-19 pandemic substantially impacted the healthcare system and society in 2020. This study assessed its possible impact on occurrence and stage of colorectal cancer diagnoses in Belgium.

Methods: Population-based data from the Belgian Cancer Registry were used to extrapolate 2017-2019 trends in incidence and stage distribution to expected counts for 2020 that were subsequently compared to the observed values. Stage-specific predictions were corrected to account for the overall decline in diagnoses.

Results: In 2020, 705 fewer than expected invasive and 255 fewer in situ colorectal cancers were diagnosed. For colon cancer, significant declines were observed in all genders and regions, mainly in the screening age group and in age 75+. For rectal cancers, there was only a significant decline in the latter two groups. Colon cancer pStage distribution did not change significantly. In situ rectal tumors showed a relative decline in Flanders and in the screening age group. In the latter group, more than expected cStage III rectal cancers were observed in women.

Conclusions: The excess decline in in situ rectal cancers is likely attributable to the temporary suspension of the colorectal screening program during the first pandemic wave. The overall decline in colon and rectal cancer incidence in Belgium in 2020 was not accompanied by a stage shift. Longer-term effects or impact on clinically relevant outcomes cannot be excluded.
Evaluation of the adherence of patients with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases to a PRO telemonitoring using connected devices: a prospective monocentric study

Published: January 2025

Background and study aims: Monitoring the symptoms of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) patients is now frequently made in the form of patient reported outcomes (PRO), rather than historical clinical activity scores. Unlike several chronic diseases, the role of telemonitoring in IBD has not yet been defined, particularly in terms of patient compliance with remote monitoring; the aim of our study was to assess patient compliance with digital monitoring of PRO as part of routine medical follow-up.

Patients and methods: we performed a monocentric prospective study in the Gastroenterology Unit of Liège’s University Hospital between May 2023 and February 2024. Adherence was considered optimal if 50% of the recordings planned for the duration of the follow-up were carried out.

Results: 31% of the patients included achieved at least 50% total encoding of their PRO over the 9 months of follow-up. The main cause of failure cited by patients was technical difficulties, well ahead of poor motivation. The overall satisfaction of practitioners and patients was generally good. Male gender was the only factor associated with adherence.

Conclusion: Overall adherence to PRO telemonitoring in IBD was around 40% and was mainly impaired by technical difficulties. Despite this, both patients and healthcare professionals found this type of monitoring relevant.
Performance of novices in Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection starting directly in human patients under direct supervision of an expert endoscopist
Authors: Bekaert J , Van Langendonck S , Van Heddegem N , Haringsma J , Dewint P
Published: January 2025

Background and study aim: The ESGE curriculum guideline on training in ESD advises an extensive experience in animal models before commencing ESD training on humans. However, the evidence on which this recommendation is based, is rather limited. In this study we evaluate the performance of novices in ESD during their one-year training period; with continuous supervision of an endoscopist with extensive experience in ESD.

Patients and Methods: During a 6.5 years period, all ESD procedures performed by an expert endoscopist (eESD) or by one of the 3 novices (sESD), in a single non-academic center, were retrospectively collected. Primary outcome parameters were rate of en-bloc resection and clinically relevant adverse events. The secondary outcome was R0 resection, recurrence rate and delayed adverse events.

Results: In total 210 ESD procedures were included. Of these 97 sESD (46.2%), were performed by a novice endoscopist under supervision and 113 eESD (53,8%) by an expert. En-bloc resection rate was 99.1% vs 99% (p = ns), R0 resection rate was 80.5 % vs 79.4 % (p=ns). Clinically relevant complications 14.2% vs 6.2 % (p = 0.04) and severe complications 4.4% vs 2.1% (p=ns). Perforation was the most frequent reported serious complication. Three patients in the eESD group versus one in the other group needed additionally surgery due to a complication (p=ns). Recurrence rate was 2.2% for eESD and 1.3 % for sESD (p=ns).

Conclusion: This retrospective analysis demonstrates that learning ESD in humans without extensive prior animal model training is safe and feasible, on the condition that continuous supervision by an expert is provided.

Correction of ERA5 temperature and relative humidity biases by bivariate quantile mapping for contrail formation analysis
Authors: Wolf Kevin , Bellouin Nicolas , Boucher Olivier , Rohs Susanne , Li Yun
Published: January 2025

Abstract. Aviation contributes to global emissions of carbon dioxide, aerosol particles, water vapor (WV), and other compounds. WV promotes the formation of condensation trails (contrails), which are known for their net warming effect on the climate. Contrail formation is often estimated using the Schmidt–Appleman criterion (SAc) together with meteorological data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis model. We compare ERA5 output of temperature and relative humidity in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere with 5 years of In-service Aircraft for a Global Observing System (IAGOS) observations over the North Atlantic. Good agreement was found for the temperature fields, with a maximum bias of −0.4 K (200 hPa level), while larger biases were found for relative humidity of up to −5.5 % (250 hPa level). Using original ERA5 data, conditions prone to contrail formation occurred 50.3 % and 7.9 % of the time for non-persistent and persistent contrails, respectively, while 44.0 % and 12.1 % were flagged in the IAGOS data. We propose a multivariate quantile mapping (QM) correction to remove systematic biases by post-processing ERA5 temperature and relative humidity fields with respect to contrail formation. The QM correction was applied to post-process ERA5 data, reducing the temperature bias to less than 0.1 K and the relative humidity bias to less than −1.5 %, resulting in 44 % and 10.9 % of the data points now being flagged for non-persistent and persistent contrail formation, respectively. Our bias correction generalizes well compared to the IAGOS observations. How it generalizes outside the IAGOS regions remains to be investigated.

Abstract. The Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM), characterized by heavy rains and winds, mainly affects South and Southeast Asia during the summer months. Deep convection within the ASM is an important transport process for pollutants from the planetary boundary layer up to the tropopause region. This study uses in situ observations of CH2Cl2 from the PHILEAS aircraft campaign in 2023 to examine the transport pathways and timescales for polluted air from the ASM to the extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS). CH2Cl2 mixing ratios of up to 300 ppt (≈500 % of the northern hemisphere background) were measured in the subarctic upper troposphere. The largest pollution events were analysed with the FLEXPART model, both in terms of their origin and their potential entry into the lower stratosphere. The results show that the East Asia Summer Monsoon (EASM) is the key pathway for transporting Cl-VSLS into the tropopause region, which contributes to an increase in tropospheric background levels with the potential to enter the lower stratosphere. The transport analysis of elevated mixing ratios suggests that transport to the subarctic upper troposphere did not occur through the Asian Summer Monsoon Anticyclone (ASMA) with subsequent eddy-shedding events, but by large convective transport contributions from the EASM. The projected entry into the lower stratosphere in the following days (12-day period) amounts to a few percent. However, the analysis covered only a short time frame, suggesting that these elevated CH2Cl2 mixing ratios could still have the potential to enter the lower stratosphere at a later time.

Abstract. This paper introduces the Air Quality Stripes, a data visualisation project which presents historical changes in outdoor particulate matter air pollution (PM2.5) concentrations across major cities worldwide. Inspired by the popular Warming Stripes image showing trends in surface temperature, the Air Quality Stripes aim to make complex information about air quality trends understandable and engaging for a broad audience. A historical PM2.5 dataset (1850–2022) was created by integrating satellite observations with model simulations (with a bias correction step to ensure a smooth time series and address known model biases). Images were produced in collaboration with a visual design specialist and revised after informal feedback from potential audiences. The images show that trends in PM2.5 are varied across the globe; recently there have been significant improvements in air quality in much of Europe and North America but worsening air quality in parts of Asia, Africa and South America. By showcasing historical data in easy to interpret images, the project aims to inspire dialogue among individuals, communities, and policymakers about proactive strategies to combat air pollution.

Abstract. The CaSiO3 system exhibits notable structural complexity, featuring different polymorphs and polytypes across various pressure (P) and temperature (T) conditions compatible with Earth's environments. Among these, the pseudowollastonite and breyite structures are characterized by the presence of threefold tetrahedral rings. In this study, we conducted multianvil syntheses in the pressure and temperature range 4–5 GPa and 600–800 °C to stabilize crystals of a new high-pressure polymorph reported by Chatterjee et al. (1984) and obtain structural information. The structure was solved by combining 3D electron diffraction (ED) and synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD). The new high-pressure polymorph, here referred to as parabreyite, features threefold tetrahedral rings, with a different configuration compared to breyite. Parabreyite is triclinic, P1‾, with unit cell parameters a= 8.1911(10) Å, b= 9.3441(9) Å, c= 10.4604(10) Å, α= 73.901(8)°, β= 89.814(9)° and γ= 77.513(9)°. The bulk modulus, K0= 90.7(5) GPa, was determined by an in situ SC-XRD experiment using a diamond anvil cell (DAC) in the pressure interval 0–10 GPa. Thermal expansion was also determined by low- and high-temperature SC-XRD measurements and resulted in a larger value compared to breyite. Additionally, we performed in situ synchrotron SC-XRD on synthetic pseudowollastonite in the pressure interval 0–14 GPa and did not observe any structural phase transition in this ring-type polymorph. We also report the differences between the Raman spectra of parabreyite and breyite to help with the in situ identification of these polymorphs. The threefold ring topology of parabreyite suggests a new configuration for high-density tetrahedra structures, with significant implications for the prediction of high-pressure sp3 carbonates.
Assessing coupling between soil temperature and potential air temperature using PALM-4U: implications for idealized scenarios

Abstract. Underground heat extremes, amplified by factors such as underground infrastructure or poorly adjusted geothermal systems, have long been discussed in the geosciences. However, there is little emphasis on the exchange between these subsurface heat extremes and the atmosphere. To address the issue, this study investigates the impact of varying soil temperatures on potential air temperatures in an idealized domain using the turbulence- and building-resolving large-eddy-simulation urban microclimate model PALM-4U (Parallelized Large-Eddy Simulation Model for Urban Applications). This involves two steps. First, we test if and how idealized domains can be simulated, and second, the coupling between surface and subsurface energy fluxes, or rather temperatures in air and soil, is in focus. We develop several scenarios, distinguishing between cyclic and Dirichlet/radiation boundary conditions along the x axis, between summer and winter, and between various land cover types. Our results demonstrate that cyclic boundary conditions induce modifications in potential air temperatures due to changes in soil temperature. The magnitude of the impact varies with respect to the tested land covers, which primarily affect absolute temperatures. The time of day and season have a larger influence on the magnitude of the modifications. A 5 K increase in subsurface temperatures at 2 m depth results in a maximum increase of 0.38 K in near-surface potential air temperatures during winter between 09:00 and 10:00 local time after 3 d of simulation. When soil temperatures are decreased, we find predominantly inverse patterns. The least influence is found during summer at 09:00, when elevated soil temperatures increase potential air temperatures by only 0.02 K over short and tall grass and by 0.18 K over bare soil. When using Dirichlet/radiation boundary conditions, the atmosphere cannot develop freely, and changing soil temperatures do not impact potential air temperatures. These results help enhance our understanding of the coupling between soil and atmospheric temperatures and also provide recommendations for the “simulatability” of idealized but reality-oriented scenarios in PALM-4U. This is one of the first studies to demonstrate that heat and cold sources in the soil can affect atmospheric parameters.
