Firm Characteristics and Financial Reporting Quality: The Moderating Role of Malaysian Corporate Governance Index
Authors: Ishak Rokiah , Amran Noor Afza , Abdul Manaf Kamarul Bahrain
Published: February 2019

The principle role of financial reporting is to provide investors with useful information for investment decision makings. In this study, we examine whether corporate governance moderates the relationship between firm characteristics and financial reporting quality. We use earnings management as measure for financial reporting quality. This study uses secondary data obtained from Thompson Database. The sample of this study is firms listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia from 2012 to 2015. The results of our study reveal that there is a positive value of abnormal cash flow which indicates that companies do practice earnings management through manipulation of cash flow from operations. Large firms are practicing earnings management. Factors such as many business segments and business complexity have encouraged large firms to manage their earnings by manipulating their cash flow from operation. In contrast, firms with high leverage and firms audited by Big 4 are less likely to involve with earnings management. Interestingly, when corporate governance index is used as moderating variable, our result shows that only firms audited by Big 4 are related to earnings management. In terms of the contribution of the study, this study is important for the development of Malaysian capital market and it help investors to better understand how the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on financial reporting quality varies across firms.

Avokadosar och kepsar – ett epentetiskt s med olika funktioner
Authors: Josefsson Gunlög
Published: February 2019

Two groups of words containing an s in the ending are discussed: firstly, non-standard plural forms ending in -sar, such as avokadosar ‘avocados’, frequently found in spoken Swedish, but deviating from the forms avokador or avokadoer, recommended by normative authorities, and secondly, so-called keps-words, traditionally analysed as English loan words, retaining the plural s, which, in some cases has been incorporated into the stem: cap + s → keps ‘hat’. The focus of interest is the role of the s.

I argue that s in both groups is an epenthetic consonant. In sar-plurals, the s blocks hiatus, which is undesirable in Swedish. It also provides the syllable that follows with an onset and allows for the use of the default plural marker -ar. For keps-words I argue that s is epenthetic too, but in a different way. Prokosch’s law is important in Swedish phonology; basically, stressed syllables have to be long. When English short-syllable words, such as cap, are imported, they have to be adjusted accordingly. To supply the coda with an s – a reanalysis of the English plural marker –, is one way to achieve this. Not all keps-words can be explained this way, but the explanation holds for the majority of the examples.

Listy Ananiasza Zajączkowskiego do Jego Ekscelencji Hadży Seraji Chana Szapszała
Authors: Zajączkowska-Łopatto Maria Emilia
Published: February 2019

The collection of letters written by Professor Ananiasz Zajączkowski (1903–1970), an eminent Turcologist and Iranist, to Hajji Seraya Khan Shapshal (1873–1961) is stored in the Archive of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences (in the so called Biblioteka Wróblewskich) in Vilnius and is of great value for both history of Oriental studies (Turcology in articular) and for the members of the Karaim communities in Lithuania and Poland. The letters were written in the years 1928–1948. Unfortunately, the letters addressed by Shapshal (also a recognized Orientalist) to Zajączkowski burned down in the latter’s apartment destroyed during the Warsaw Uprising in 1944. On the base of facts described by Ananiasz Zajączkowski in his letters, one can follow his scientific biography, e.g. his efforts in organizing the Chair in Turcology and the Institute for Oriental Studies at the University of Warsaw and his editorial activities concerning the journal “Myśl Karaimska”. One learns a lot about Karaims living in Warsaw at that time and their social and political position in the Republic of Poland. Some echoes of Zajączkowski’s family life are also present in these letters.
Listy do Wilna
Authors: Pawelec Mariusz
Published: February 2019

Years 1928–1948 were extremely important for Hajji Seraya Shapshal – an Orientalist and the spiritual leader of Karaims working in these years in Vilnius. In the first decade of this period he was a prolific researcher and an active spiritual and social leader in the what was then the Second Polish Republic nota bene very tolerant towards Karaim religion. The second decade of this period includes the years of the Second World War, the first short years of independent Lithuania along with the years of its German occupation, and, finally, a few years of the not less problematic Soviet rule. Seraya Shapshal’s played a key role in these hard times as the spiritual and secular leader of the Karaim community. The correspondence between him and Ananiasz Zajączkowski is therefore an extremely important source of information not only on Seraya Shapszal, but also on the whole Karaim nation.
‘Rozum’ w przysłowiach karaimskich ze zbioru W.I. Fiłonienki Аталар созы przepisanego przez Josifa Kefelego
Authors: Stanek Kamila Barbara
Published: February 2019

Podstawą niniejszej pracy są przysłowia ze zbiorku przysłów karaimskich Wiktora I. Fiłonienki, którego odręczna kopia sporządzona została przez Josifa Kefelego. Rękopis znajduje się w kolekcji Józefa Sulimowicza, na prośbę którego został sporządzony. Z zawierającego 150 przysłów zbiorku wybrano dziesięć dotyczących postrzegania rozumu. Ponieważ ani autor, ani kopista na ogół nie opatrywali przysłów komentarzami odnoszącymi się do kontekstu użycia, podczas analizy posiłkowano się objaśnieniami zawartymi w innych zbiorach przysłów karaimskich oraz przysłowiami posiadającymi podobne znaczenie, a występującymi we współczesnym języku tureckim. Większość z analizowanych przysłów wskazuje na wagę, jaką Karaimi przywiązywali do postępowania opierającego się na logicznym myśleniu. Przestrzega się w nich przed kontaktami z osobami głupimi i szalonymi. Wyjątek stanowi przysłowie głoszące, że tylko od szaleńców (głupców, naiwnych) i dzieci) można się dowiedzieć prawdy. W innym mamy do czynienia z przeświadczeniem, że większy niż rozum wpływ na ludzkie życie ma uśmiech losu (łut szczęścia).
A student of Jewish languages reads Michał Németh’s Unknown Lutsk Karaim Letters in Hebrew Script (19th–20th Centuries). A Critical Edition
Authors: Gold David L.
Published: February 2019

The Karaite language has justifiedly attracted the attention of Turkologists though it should also be of interest to students of Jewish languages (= the languages of Rabbanite and Karaite Jews); and what students of Jewish languages have to say about it should interest Turkologists, just as what the latter have to say should interest the former.

By looking at Karaite (as exemplified in Michał Németh’s Unknown Lutsk Karaim Letters in Hebrew Script (19th–20th Centuries): A Critical Edition)from the viewpoint of other Jewish languages, researchers can:

Add new questions to the agenda of Karaite research. For example, the existence of an idiosyncratic type of periphrastic verb in at least Karaite, Judezmo, Yidish, and Ultra-Orthodox Ashkenazic English prompts the question of what the genetic relationships between the tokens of that type are.

Reopens old questions. For example, the derivation proposed for Karaite כניסא '[Karaite (and/or Rabbanite?)] synagog', with phonological variants, according to which the word comes from Arabic. The author proposes a different etymology (possibly not original with him) , involving only Jewish languages (a more appropriate derivation for a Karaite word having that meaning), which takes the Karaite word back to Hebrew and/or to Jewish Aramaic.

PESANTREN DALAM BINGKAI POLITIK BIROKRASI PENDIDIKAN ISLAM DI INDONESIA
Authors: Riyadi Ali
Published: February 2019

Gesekan politik dan pesantren sudah terjadi pada masa kolonial. Lembaga ini berperan menentang penetrasi kolonialisme yang pada akhirnya melakukan strategi uzlah atau menutup dan menghindar dari persoalan-persoalan politik. Peran seperti ini berlanjut sampai pada masa kemerdekaan. Sebagai dampaknya pesantren menjadi terisolisir dari persoalan-persolan politik dan kurang diperhitungkan eksistensinya secara nasional. Selanjutnya, terjadi perubahan orientasi politik di dunia pesantren, ketika intervensi politik menjangkau segenap jalur kehidupan sosial masyarakat, dengan adanya rekayasa penataan politik yang dikembangkan penguasa yang mempunyai dampak politis yang tidak dapat dihindari oleh lembaga pendidikan pesantren. Secara hegemonik, negara menguasai lembaga politik dan sosial kemasyarakatan dalam rangka menarik massa agar berada dalam spektrum kebijakan dan kekuasaan pemerintah. Dari sinilah pesantren yang semula independen dari atmosfir politik menjadi termobilisasi demi kepentingan penguasa

Artikel ini membahas tentang konsep pluralisme agama dan kaitannya dengan kehidupan masyarakat beragama yang rukun. Sebagaimana karakteristik masyarakat Indonesia yang sangat majemuk (plural society), yang jika tidak ada sistem masyarakat yang mengikat satu sama lain akan menjadi sumber konfil, baik vertical maupun horizontal.Perlu ditegaskan bahwa pluralisme yang dimaksud disini harus diartikan dan difahami dalam kerangka Pluralisme menurut ukuran ke Indonesiaan, bukan menurut ukuran dan dalam konteks masyarakat kolonial. Sebagaimana dikatakan Nasikun, bahwa masyarakat Indonesia merupakan masyarakat yang bersifat Plural yang berbeda.Pluralisme yang dimiliki oleh bangsa Indonesia tersebut secara positif telah mampu memperkaya khasanah kultural bangsa Indonesia yang menjadi kebanggaan nasional dalam kerangka “Nasionalisme Bangsa” Namun disilain , Pluralisme sebagaimana sering diungkapkan oleh para ahli menjadi potensi sosial yang meredam berbagai sumber konflik. Karena adanya potensi sosial ke arah disintegrasi, sangatlah wajar apabila pluralisme menjadi persoalan pelik dalam integrasi nasional di Indonesia.

Effects of pH and Storage Time on the Stability of Papaya and Carrot Extracts
Authors: Juliana Juliana , Indrawati Renny , Yuliati Leny
Published: February 2019

Papaya and carrot are rich in natural pigments, especially b-carotene. Unfortunately, in most cases, natural pigments are less stable than the synthetic ones when they are put in a variety of treatment conditions, such as pH. In this work, the stability of the papaya and carrot extracts were evaluated in various pH, which ranges of 1-10 for 7 days. The extracts were obtained by a slow juicer, followed by encapsulation and drying by a freeze dryer. The extracts were then dispersed in buffer solutions and the chroma and color difference (DE) values were calculated from the obtained lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*). The results showed that carrot extract was better than the papaya extract in terms of chroma values. It was also shown that both extracts were not stable under acidic condition, but more stable in neutral to alkaline condition. The acid condition facilitated the cleavage of the conjugated bonds in the b-carotene, which in turn caused the color degradation in the papaya and carrot extracts.

Brain-microbiota neural network: regulation of the visceral brain and accumulation of cognitive memory
Authors: Volobuev A. , Romanchuk P. , Bulgakova S.
Published: February 2019

The peculiarity of the limbic system is that between its structures there are simple bilateral relations and complex paths, forming a set of closed circles. Such an organization creates conditions for a long circulation of the same excitation in the system and thus for the preservation of a single state in it and the dominance of this state to other brain systems. The limbic system organizes and ensures the flow of vegetative, somatic and mental processes in emotional and motivational activity. It also provides perception and storage of emotionally significant information, selection and implementation of adaptive forms of emotional behavior. In this regard, the limbic system is called the “visceral brain”. The main medical and social significance of the visceral brain is the formation of emotions. The visceral brain is involved in the regulation of the functions of internal organs, smell, automatic regulation, emotions, memory, sleep, wakefulness, etc. Visceral brain determines the choice and implementation of adaptive forms of behavior, the dynamics of innate forms of behavior, maintenance of homeostasis, generative processes. It provides hormonal stimulation of the body, creating an emotional background, the formation and implementation of the processes of higher nervous activity. Cognitive memory is one of the largest and most capacious concepts that represents the basic function of memory in General. The knowledge that a person receives during training is first perceived as something external, but then gradually they turn into experience and beliefs. Cognitive memory retains all the knowledge gained, representing a kind of “library”, and the process of assimilation and preservation is complicated as the complexity of the information received.

The article examines combinations of animate substantives with possessive and demonstrative pronominal adjectives. Most of the focus is on anthroponyms which are completely concrete within a context. Accompanying attributives are seldom used in their primary meanings but usually develop their secondary meanings becoming stylistically marked. The article illustrates how the choice of pronominal adjectives defining an anthroponyms discovers the speaker’s intention.
Stream Data Load Prediction for Resource Scaling Using Online Support Vector Regression
Authors: Hu Zhigang , Kang Hui , Zheng Meiguang
Published: February 2019

A distributed data stream processing system handles real-time, changeable and sudden streaming data load. Its elastic resource allocation has become a fundamental and challenging problem with a fixed strategy that will result in waste of resources or a reduction in QoS (quality of service). Spark Streaming as an emerging system has been developed to process real time stream data analytics by using micro-batch approach. In this paper, first, we propose an improved SVR (support vector regression) based stream data load prediction scheme. Then, we design a spark-based maximum sustainable throughput of time window (MSTW) performance model to find the optimized number of virtual machines. Finally, we present a resource scaling algorithm TWRES (time window resource elasticity scaling algorithm) with MSTW constraint and streaming data load prediction. The evaluation results show that TWRES could improve resource utilization and mitigate SLA (service level agreement) violation.
Probabilistic Safety Assessment for UAS Separation Assurance and Collision Avoidance Systems
Authors: Tabassum Asma , Sabatini Roberto , Gardi Alessandro
Published: February 2019

The airworthiness certification of aerospace cyber-physical systems traditionally relies on the probabilistic safety assessment as a standard engineering methodology to quantify the potential risks associated with faults in system components. This paper presents and discusses the probabilistic safety assessment of detect and avoid (DAA) systems relying on multiple cooperative and non-cooperative tracking technologies to identify the risk of collision of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) with other flight vehicles. In particular, fault tree analysis (FTA) is utilized to measure the overall system unavailability for each basic component failure. Considering the inter-dependencies of navigation and surveillance systems, the common cause failure (CCF)-beta model is applied to calculate the system risk associated with common failures. Additionally, an importance analysis is conducted to quantify the safety measures and identify the most significant component failures. Results indicate that the failure in traffic detection by cooperative surveillance systems contribute more to the overall DAA system functionality and that the probability of failure for ownship locatability in cooperative surveillance is greater than its traffic detection function. Although all the sensors individually yield 99.9% operational availability, the implementation of adequate multi-sensor DAA system relying on both cooperative and non-cooperative technologies is shown to be necessary to achieve the desired levels of safety in all possible encounters. These results strongly support the adoption of a unified analytical framework for cooperative/non-cooperative UAS DAA and elicits an evolution of the current certification framework to properly account for artificial intelligence and machine-learning based systems.
Effect of Large-Scale Cultivated Land Expansion on the Balance of Soil Carbon and Nitrogen in the Tarim Basin
Authors: Xu Erqi , Zhang Hongqi , Xu Yongmei
Published: February 2019

Land reclamation influences the soil carbon and nitrogen cycling, but its scale and time effects on the balance of soil carbon and nitrogen are still uncertain. Taking the Tarim Basin as the study area, the impact of land reclamation on the soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), and carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio was explored by the multiple temporal changes of land use and soil samples. Remote sensing detected that cropland nearly doubled in area from 1978 to 2015. Spatial analysis techniques were used to identify land changes, including the prior land uses and cultivation ages. Using land reclamation history information, a specially designed soil sampling was conducted in 2015 and compared to soil properties in ca. 1978. Results found a decoupling characteristic between the C:N ratio and SOC or TN, indicating that changes in SOC and TN do not correspond directly to changes in the C:N ratio. The land reclamation history coupled with the baseline effect has opposite impacts on the temporal rates of change in SOC, TN and C:N ratios. SOC and TN decreased during the initial stage of conversion to cropland and subsequently recovered with increasing cultivation time. By contrast, the C:N ratio for soils derived from grassland increased at the initial stage but the increase declined when cultivated longer, and the C:N ratio decreased for soils derived from forest and fluctuated with the cultivation time. Lower C:N ratios than the global average and its decreasing trend with increasing reclamation age were found in newly reclaimed croplands from grasslands. Sustainable agricultural management practices are suggested to enhance the accumulation of soil carbon and nitrogen, as well as to increase the C:N ratio to match the nitrogen deposition to a larger carbon sequestration.

Published: February 2019

Buses, as the most commonly used public transport, play a significant role in cities. Predicting bus traffic flow cannot only build an efficient and safe transportation network but also improve the current situation of road traffic congestion, which is very important for urban development. However, bus traffic flow has complex spatial and temporal correlations, as well as specific scenario patterns compared with other modes of transportation, which is one of the biggest challenges when building models to predict bus traffic flow. In this study, we explore bus traffic flow and its specific scenario patterns, then we build improved spatio-temporal residual networks to predict bus traffic flow, which uses fully connected neural networks to capture the bus scenario patterns and improved residual networks to capture the bus traffic flow spatio-temporal correlation. Experiments on Beijing transportation smart card data demonstrate that our method achieves better results than the four baseline methods.
Application of Self-Organizing Neural Networks to Electrical Fault Classification in Induction Motors

Published: February 2019

Electrical winding faults, namely stator short-circuits and rotor bar damage, in total constitute around 50% of all faults of induction motors (IMs) applied in variable speed drives (VSD). In particular, the short circuits of stator windings are recognized as one of the most difficult failures to detect because their detection makes sense only at the initial stage of the damage. Well-known symptoms of stator and rotor winding failures can be visible in the stator current spectra; however, the detection and classification of motor windings faults usually require the knowledge of human experts. Nowadays, artificial intelligence methods are also used in fault recognition. This paper presents the results of experimental research on the application of the stator current symptoms of the converter-fed induction motor drive to electrical fault detection and classification using Kohonen neural networks. The experimental tests of a diagnostic setup based on a virtual measurement and data pre-processing system, designed in LabView, are described. It has been shown that the developed neural detectors and classifiers based on self-organizing Kohonen maps, trained with the instantaneous symmetrical components of the stator current spectra (ISCA), enable automatic distinguishing between the stator and rotor winding faults for supplying various voltage frequencies and load torque values.

Recycled concrete aggregate (RA) from pavement demolition was used to make concrete. Ten concrete mixtures with different replacement percentages of RA (coarse and fine) were made. The corrosion rate of steel and the electrical resistivity of concrete were determined on reinforced concrete specimens subjected to wetting-drying cycles (3.5% solution of NaCl). Corrosion rate was determined using the electrochemical technique of linear polarization resistance, while the electrical resistivity was measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the use of RA introduces more interfaces in concrete, which accelerates the steel corrosion process because the porosity increases and the electrical resistivity decreases. However, steel corrosion and the electrical resistivity in concrete are not significantly influenced by replacing a maximum 30% of coarse aggregate or 20% of fine aggregate with RA.

Published: February 2019

We developed an efficient and environmentally friendly strategy for synthesizing an N-doped carbon aerogel by the carbonization of an alkaline peroxide mechanical pulp (APMP) fiber aerogel saturated with rhodamine B (RB) dyes. The APMP aerogel was prepared via cellulose extraction, sol-gel, and freeze drying. The resulting aerogel had a high adsorption capacity (250 mg g−1) and a fast adsorption rate (within 30 s) towards RB dyes. The saturated aerogel was used as a starting material for further carbonization to prepare N-doped carbon aerogels. SEM studies showed that the 3D network structure of the APMP aerogels was well preserved after RB adsorption and carbonization. The prepared carbon aerogel exhibited a graphitized structure, and N (2.15%) was doped at pyridinic N and pyrrolic N sites in the 3D carbon network. The specific capacitance of the N-doped carbon aerogel reached 185 F g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1, which is higher than carbon aerogels (155 F g−1).

The effects of doping on the electronic and magnetic properties of the quaternary Heusler alloy TiZrCoIn were investigated by first-principles calculations. Results showed that the appearance of half-metallicity and negative formation energies are associated in all of the TiZrCoIn1−xGex compounds, indicating that Ge doping at Z-site increases the stability without damaging the half-metallicity of the compounds. Formation energy gradually decreased with doping concentration, and the width of the spin-down gap increased with a change in Fermi level. TiZrCoIn0.25Ge0.75 was found to be the most stable half-metal. Its Fermi level was in the middle of the broadened gap, and a peak at the Fermi level was detected in the spin majority channel of the compound. The large gaps of the compounds were primarily dominated by the intense d-d hybridization between Ti, Zr, and Co. The substitution of In by Ge increased the number of sp valence electrons in the system and thereby enhanced RKKY exchange interaction and increased splitting. Moreover, the total spin magnetic moments of the doped compounds followed the Slater–Pauling rule of Mt = Zt − 18 and increased from 2 μB to 3 μB linearly with concentration.
