The use of game theory in building sustainable competitive advantage
Authors: Bateh Dena
Published: April 2024

Creating sustainable competitive advantages is central to both the success and longevity of firms competing in today’s business environment. One powerful tool that businesses can learn from and utilize to potentially foster such advantages is game theory. Further, we have thoroughly researched previous studies and determined three areas in which competitive advantages can be derived from the implementation and understanding of game theory principles. These include improved decision-making, supply chain management, and employee management. Our goal is to analyze the works of experts on the subject to further our understanding of the topic. This research will provide a foundation for the subsequent justifications on how game theory can be utilized to create the competitive advantages we specified. Reviewing our findings has led the researcher to believe that firms of any variety looking to improve their decision-making, supply chain management, and/or employee management could find great value, if not create fully realized competitive advantages, from taking game theory and its observations into consideration.

Published: April 2024

Los estudios sobre el optimismo han experimentado un crecimiento importante. En el marco de los factores asociados, una línea de investigación que ha recibido menos atención en este ámbito es la influencia que ciertas características de los padres tienen sobre el desarrollo de la respuesta optimista en sus hijos. Esta investigación aporta dos estudios relativos a este campo. Mediante el Estudio 1, N = 189 diadas (padre o madre y sus hijos), examinamos la relación entre el apego de los padres y el optimismo de los hijos. En el Estudio 2 (N = 327 niños y adolescentes) se revisa la relación entre el apego de los hijos y su optimismo. La muestra del estudio 1 fue diádica, mientras que la muestra del estudio 2 fue infantojuvenil unicamente. Los resultados indican una asociación entre la evitación del apego de los padres y el optimismo de los hijos, así como también una relación entre la calidad del apego y el optimismo en población infantojuvenil. Estos resultados sugieren que el apego con las figuras parentales podría favorecer el desarrollo de optimismo disposicional.
BRiM: A Modular Bicycle-Rider Modeling Framework
Authors: Stienstra Timótheüs J. , Brockie Samuel G. , Moore Jason
Published: April 2024

The development of computationally efficient and validated single-track vehicle-rider models has traditionally required handcrafted one-off models. Here we introduce BRiM, a software package that facilitates building these models in a modular fashion while retaining access to the mathematical elements for handcrafted modeling when desired. We demonstrate the flexibility of the software by constructing the Carvallo-Whipple bicycle model with different numerical parameters representing different bicycles, modifying it with a front fork suspension travel model, and extending it with moving rider arms driven by joint torques at the elbows. Using these models we solve a lane-change optimal control problem for six different model variations which solve in mere seconds on a modern personal computer. Our tool enables flexible and rapid modeling of single-track vehicle-rider models that give precise results at high computational efficiency.

Apartheid in the Occupied Palestinian Territory?
Authors: Ambos Kai
Published: April 2024

The apartheid claim made against Israel because of its policy in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) – most recently in the ongoing advisory proceedings before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) – cannot be settled with the counter-claim of antisemitism, but calls for an objective, thorough and fact-based legal inquiry. Only such an approach with regard to this and other allegations against Israeli policy will strengthen Israel, understood as a liberal and democratic Rechtsstaat, which guarantees, in line with its 1948 Declaration of Independence, “complete equality” to “all its inhabitants”.
Moderation Made in Europe
Authors: Gradoni Lorenzo , Ortolani Pietro
Published: April 2024

The EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA) has been fully applicable for a little more than a month now. The conditions are thus in place for the emergence of the out-of-court dispute settlement (ODS) ecosystem envisaged in Article 21 DSA, arguably the DSA’s most original contribution to securing digital platform users’ rights. In this post, we try to envision the shape such an ecosystem might take over the next few years in the key area of social media content moderation (SMCM). We argue that the DSA may create an adjudication system dominated by a few ODS providers backed by public-private partnerships and ready to work in concert with the complaint-handling mechanisms set up by the platforms themselves.

The effects of three N rates (0, 20 and 40 kg N ha-1) and time of topping (topping at early flowering and topping at full flowering) on yield and quality (percentage of first, second and third grade dried tobacco, and chemical composition) of Virginia tobacco genotypes (Virginia 0514, Hybrid 33, Hybrid 27) were studied in field experiment in 2015-2016. The experimental design was a randomized complete block replicated three times. The most important factor that affects leaf yield was N rate. Genotype differences and time of topping also had a significant effect on the yield. The application of 20 and 40 kg N ha-1 improved the leaf yield by 12.6%, and 17.8%, respectively, in comparison with unfertilized plants. When tobacco was topped at early flowering stage, the yields of the different genotypes increased by 4.3%-10.1% compared to the topping at full flowering. Nitrogen fertilization and topping had almost the same effect on the quality of the tobacco (as determined by the percentage of first grade dried tobacco). The genotype effect was weaker but also statistically significant. The quantity of the first class was also determined by the interaction of topping and nitrogen rate. Topping at early flowering increased the concentrations of nicotine and total nitrogen in tobacco. The reducing sugars/nicotine ratio was higher, and in this case more favorable, when tobacco plants were topped at full flowering stage. Nicotine content (2.33%-3.53%) increased when the rate of nitrogen increased. There was a negative relationship between increasing N levels and reducing sugars content.

It is very important to understand various communication problems in order to improve communication skills so that the communication process runs effectively. The realization Communication problems are marked from the macro level in government, in corporations to the micro level in everyday life. It is very important to understand various communication problems in order to improve communication skills so that the communication process runs effectively. The realization of effective communication requires communication skills. A person is expected to be able to collaborate effectively with other people, present ideas effectively and so on. The method used in PKM activities is that the participants are vocational high school students. Counseling is carried out by prioritizing simulation or roleplay for participants. This counseling shows the enthusiasm of the participants and also increases their effective communication skills. The results of the speaker's activities were carrying out a simulation in the form of a roleplay for Tarakanita Vocational School students. Effective communication is determined by a communication behavior approach, namely (1) submissive (non-assertive), namely someone who shows low self-esteem so that interactions are always accompanied by worry and disappointment with themselves; (2) aggressive, in communicating generally giving the impression of superiority, domination and no respect for other people; and (3) assertive, in communicating generally respecting oneself and others and being able to communicate needs, desires and feelings

Teaching Design of the Junior High School English Reading for Deep Learning
Authors: Ying Yijia , Su Yujie
Published: April 2024

English reading holds a pivotal position in junior high school English teaching, constituting an integral component of the entire educational process. Nowadays, it is imperative for English teachers to transcend the conventional, superficial reading instruction models and adopt a deep learning framework to fashion a profound reading classroom for students. This approach allows students to engage in inductive integration, application evaluation, and internalization and transfer, enabling them to delve into seemingly intricate and challenging texts, exploring them from multiple dimensions, including content, structure, and cultural implications. Ultimately, this fosters the development of students' comprehensive reading abilities and English core literacy. This paper, drawing from the perspective of deep learning and incorporating specific case studies, aims to devise a junior high school English reading instruction design that is both academically rigorous and emotionally engaging, with a focus on enhancing students' English core literacy and overall reading proficiency.

Revisiting the Regional Integration of ASEAN: A Comparison with the EU
Authors: Li Zhuosi
Published: April 2024

This study provides a comparative analysis of regional integration processes in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the European Union (EU) within the framework of Liberal Intergovernmentalism (LI). The formation of state preferences, the role of decision-making regimes, and the selective nature of integration in these two regional blocs are discussed. While both organizations have achieved substantial results in regional cooperation, they differ significantly in the depth and scope of their integration. ASEAN emphasizes the preservation of national sovereignty, resulting in limited progress, while the EU has achieved deep economic and political integration by delegating sovereign powers and empowering supranational institutions. The study also looks into the ongoing ASEAN in the changing global economic landscape, highlighting the increasing influence of economic interests, globalization, and the need for regional unity in the face of external challenges. In conclusion, while ASEAN and the EU have followed divergent paths of regional integration, they continue to evolve in response to internal and external dynamics.

The Mediating Effect of Acculturation Ability in the Relationship between Discriminatory Stress and Mental Well-Being among Chinese Students in South Korean Universities
Authors: Zhang Yizhen
Published: April 2024

As the number of international students in Korea increases, it is particularly important to pay attention to their mental well-being and adaptability. This study aimed to explore the mediating effect of acculturation ability on the relationship between discrimination stress and mental well-being among Chinese students studying in Korea. The mental well-being of international students has always been a concern. However, for the Chinese students in Korea, who occupy the largest proportion of international students and have special discrimination stress, their psychological adaptation to the cross-cultural environment has not been fully studied. Discrimination stress may negatively affect their mental well-being, and the acculturation ability may play a key role in this process. This study examined the relationship between discrimination stress, acculturation ability, and mental well-being by reviewing data from the literature on Chinese international students studying in South Korea. This study discovered that the association between discriminatory stress and mental well-being is significantly mediated by acculturation skills. That is, international students with higher acculturation ability are more likely to mitigate the adverse effects of discrimination experiences on their mental well-being. The results of this study highlight the importance of acculturation ability in the mental well-being research of international students. In the future, support and intervention measures should be developed for Chinese students studying in South Korea to improve their acculturation ability so as to reduce the negative impact of the stress brought by discrimination on mental well-being and promote the sound development of cross-cultural education.

Authors: Yavorska H. V. , Vorobets N. M.
Published: April 2024

Biofilms are an important element of microbial communities and perform various functions determined by their composition, structure and environmental conditions in which they are formed. Biofilms can form on various surfaces, such as soil, glass, metal, polymeric materials, and biostructures of living organisms. This process takes place with the participation of many species of microorganisms, in particular, bacteria and fungi, which, in this manner, acquire additional mechanisms for survival, in particular, in the presence of antibiotics. To test the biofilm-forming ability of bacteria (Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus brevis, Rhodococcus luteus, Staphylococcus albus, Azotobacterchroococcum, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Micrococcus luteus) and yeasts (Candida pseudotropicalis, C. curvata, C.kefyr, C. parapsilosis, C. tenuis, Cryptococcus lactativorus, Cryptococcus laurentii), which were affected by plant extracts, three methods were used. The ability of these microorganisms to form biofilms was not detected.

The spring period - in that time the relevance of diagnostics related to Helicobacter pylori infection forces us to pay more attention to the cohort of patients with gastrointestinal tract pathology. Most often, these are patients with exacerbation of chronic gastritis (CH) and peptic ulcer disease (UD) of the stomach and duodenum, the typical course of which involves the seasonality of exacerbations: spring and autumn. Among other criteria of a "typical" course, infection with H. pylori, which is the cause of these diseases and without its destruction in the body, it is impossible to achieve clinical remission of H. pylori-associated diseases and prevent their recurrence. Before prescribing therapy, the causative agent must be identified, and after treatment, its eradication must be confirmed. The severity of chronic diseases of helicobacterial etiology depends on the degree of pathogenicity of the strains, the presence of certain cytotoxic genes. The review analyzes modern information on the biological properties of the causative agent of helicobacteriosis and methods of its diagnosis. They can be divided into invasive (requires taking a biopsy during endoscopic examination) and non-invasive. Bacteriological and morphological research methods are distinguished among the invasive ones. The histological method is recognized as the "gold standard" for the diagnosis of helicobacteriosis. The essence of the method consists in the preparation of preparations of the gastric mucosa and their Giemsa staining in order to detect bacterial cells in the preparation. The method allows you to determine the characteristics of the causative agent and assess the condition of the gastric mucosa. The bacteriological method is considered indispensable for checking strains for resistance to certain antibacterial drugs, which allows predicting the results of treatment. Currently, non-invasive diagnostic methods have become the most widespread. Along with the respiratory urease test, serological methods are used (immunoenzyme analysis, immunoblotting), as well as the immunochromatographic method. The molecular diagnostic method, namely PCR, is used to study the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of H. pylori strains in gastric biopsy samples, saliva, stools, gastric juice, and dental plaque. PCR provides excellent sensitivity and specificity of over 95% compared to other tests.

COVID-19: Economic and Social Impact Assessment in Cambodia
Authors:   United Nations Development Programme, Cambodia, Beresford Nick
Published: April 2024

INTRODUCTION COVID-19 has taken immense tolls on societies and economies around the world, including through dramatic global impacts on trade, production and other economic activities. The World Bank, International Monetary Fund, Asian Development Bank and United Nations system have all estimated the high costs of COVID-19, but mainly at the regional level, such as for ASEAN (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations). The UN Secretary General Report in April estimated a regional contraction of —0.1 percent in gross domestic product (GDP) for 2020 in South-East Asia, contrasting to the predicted 4.5 percent growth before the pandemic. UNDP Cambodia has undertaken a costing of socioeconomic impacts specific to Cambodia. Crucially, the crisis operates through both demand and supply channels. Cambodia is highly exposed as it relies on a narrow cconomic base built from garments, tourism, agriculture and construction. It has a highly open economy, where exports and imports are around 62 percent and 63 percent of GDP, respecively. Foreign direct investment is 11 percent of GDP. On the supply side, Cambodia is highly reliant on China for raw materials for its garment industry and as a source of tourists. On the demand side, China is an important export destination for agricultural products. Capital inflows from China are key to sectors such as construction. Cambodia’s higher value-added exports go mainly to Europe. COVID-19 effects will exacerbate the pre-existing loss of trade preferences from the partial suspension of the European Union’s Everything But Arms programme, starting in August 2020.

Energy and Exergy Analysis of Single Effect Water-LiBr Vapour Absorption Refrigeration System
Authors: Sitotaw Natnale
Published: April 2024

Vapor absorption refrigeration system (VARS) is one of the emerging technology in thermal-driven refrigeration systems and has too many benefits in comparison with another cooling system as their performance is good and the cost is low. Different mathematical models of various complexities have been developed for performance analysis, optimization, and design of such systems. In this study energy and exergy of a single effect LiBr vapor absorption refrigeration system is analyzed with different mathematical model developed so far. The effect of varying the temperature for each component of the system on the coefficient of performance (COP) and exergetic efficiency (COPex) is briefly discussed. The results show that increasing generator temperature from 86oc to 102oc for constant refrigerant mass flow rate causes COP of the system to increase, due to the decrease in circulation ratio. In another case, increasing the evaporator temperature from 2oc to 14oc for a constant temperature input of the generator has a positive effect on both the first and second law efficiency of the VARS as the load on the generator decrease. From the result, it can also be concluded that increasing absorber temperature has a negative impact on both COP and exergetic efficiency of VARS.
