In industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), energy efficiency and reliable data transmission are critical challenges that need to be addressed to ensure sustainable and robust network operations. This paper proposes a novel energy-efficient routing protocol that integrates a Hybrid COOT-LS (Coot- Levy Search) algorithm with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)-based Dominant Object Motion (DOM) prediction. The routing protocol leverages the strengths of Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) to enhance routing efficiency and reduce energy consumption. The Hybrid PSO and ACO algorithms are employed to optimize routing paths by balancing exploration and exploitation, considering multiple factors such as energy levels, node distance, and reliability. The COOT-LS algorithm further refines these paths by incorporating a Levy flight mechanism to enhance the search process. Additionally, the LSTM-based DOM prediction provides accurate forecasts of network conditions, enabling dynamic adjustments to routing strategies in real time. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol significantly improves network lifetime, reduces energy consumption, and enhances data transmission reliability compared to traditional routing protocols. This approach provides a robust and scalable solution for industrial WSN applications, ensuring efficient and reliable network performance in dynamic and complex industrial environments.
Smart Tender Management System Using Blockchain in Python
Authors: M S Shrikanth , C Ashwini
Published: July 2024

-Blockchain technology has been adopted by a number of industries, including government agencies, financial services, healthcare, and agriculture, to improve their operations in the quickly changing modern world. But the industry for tenders hasn't yet completely realized all of its advantages. Due to problems including bias, bad record- keeping, lack of transparency, vulnerability to hackers, and data tampering, inadequate tender management procedures can cause large losses. We suggest using blockchain technology to ensure improved security and effectiveness in tender management as a solution to these problems. We can create a secure transaction management system that protects important documents and transactions related to the tendering process by utilizing encryption and the immutable nature of blockchain. By safely storing bid proposals, firm profiles, historical data, tender documents, and other information, this system fosters transparency and integrity. The Admin and Company modules are the two main components of the Smart Tender Management System. Administrators can oversee applications, handle tenders, and keep an eye on transaction logs with the help of the admin module. Companies can register, submit proposals, and monitor the status of their applications using the Company module. The solution improves security, lowers expenses, and simplifies tender processing by doing away with intermediaries and utilizing strong encryption techniques. This fosters an easy- to-use and effective experience for all parties involved KeyWords: Block chain Technology, Encryption, Smart Contracts, Tender Management.

Realisation of Low Temperature Combustion in an Unmodified Diesel Engine
Authors: Virt Márton , Zöldy Máté
Published: July 2024

Heavy-duty diesel engines are an essential part of road transportation. Since viable alternatives are not expected in the short and medium term, the problematic emission characteristics of compression ignition engines have to be addressed. Low temperature combustion (LTC) is an alternative combustion method for compression ignition engines that allows low particulate matter and nitrogen oxide emissions while improving efficiency. To overcome the difficulties of market introduction, the realization of such alternative combustion methods should come with marginal engine modifications. Thus, this work investigates the possible realization of LTC in an unmodified diesel engine. LTC methods with and without injection strategy modifications were also studied to provide sufficient recommendations for other researchers. It was concluded that techniques requiring early direct injection, such as homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) require a narrow cone angle injector to reduce wall impingement. It was also concluded that modulated kinetics (MK) type LTC can be easily achieved by applying a conventional injection strategy and high amounts of cooled exhaust gas recirculation. The realized MK combustion resulted in an enhanced NOx-PM trade-off and a lower peak pressure rise rate compared to normal operation.

A sífilis congênita é uma infecção que ocorre quando a bactéria Treponema pallidum atravessa a placenta e contamina o feto. Durante a investigação diagnóstica, faz-se necessário o tratamento e acompanhamento da mãe, do recém-nascido e das parcerias sexuais dos casos notificados. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar o atendimento das parceiras sexuais de mães de recém-nascidos notificados com sífilis congênita nas maternidades do município de Arapiraca/AL. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo e retrospectivo de caráter quantitativo através da investigação da notificação de casos de sífilis congênita ocorridos entre 2021 e julho de 2023. Foram notificados 36 casos de sífilis congênita neste período, sendo a amostra composta por 19 parcerias sexuais (52,7%) de mães das crianças, visto que as demais não foram localizadas. A análise estatística realizada foi descritiva e exploratória, a partir de medidas de frequência, centralidade e dispersão. As parcerias sexuais deste estudo apresentaram média de idade de cerca 24 anos, sendo 94,7% do sexo masculino e 5,3% do sexo feminino. Quanto à escolaridade, 84,2% tinham menos de sete anos de estudo e 57,9% possuíam renda média de até um salário-mínimo. Embora mais da metade das parcerias (52,6%) tenham comparecido às consultas de pré-natal da gestante, nenhuma foi acolhida na atenção primária para realização do pré-natal do parceiro, havendo tratamento tardio e manutenção da cadeia de transmissão. Conclui-se ser necessário desenvolver estratégias efetivas para que as parcerias realizem o pré-natal concomitante com a gestante para realização da testagem e tratamento de sífilis de forma a promover a redução da incidência de sífilis congênita.

Published: July 2024

Este artigo compara a modernização e o desenvolvimento avançado por Juscelino Kubitschek (JK) durante seu governo com o panorama atual do Brasil, enfatizando dois setores fundamentais: a administração e a arquitetura. JK promoveu a modernização da economia brasileira incentivando a entrada de capitais estrangeiros e o desenvolvimento de setores-chave como energia, indústria, educação, transporte e alimentos. Além disso, JK promoveu a construção de Brasília e a arquitetura moderna brasileira, que teve impacto significativo em arquitetos e urbanistas em todo o mundo. A cidade de Brasília, projetada por Lúcio Costa e Oscar Niemeyer, é um ícone da nova arquitetura brasileira e continua a desafiar os arquitetos e inspirar o desenvolvimento do país. Embora o governo de JK tenha sido amplamente elogiado, também foi criticado pelos altos custos e pelo deslocamento de comunidades. O uso da ferramenta de gestão 5W2H também foi destacado como um dos métodos eficientes utilizados por JK para desenvolver seu governo, embora ele tenha deixado o país com uma inflação muito alta. Em resumo, o governo de JK teve um impacto significativo no desenvolvimento do Brasil, com a modernização e a inovação sendo promovidas em diversas áreas, incluindo a arquitetura, mas com fortes críticas pelos custos e impacto social de alguns projetos.

The Healing of First Nations: Dominance or Health?
Authors: Atleo Marlene
Published: July 2024

The historical development of health issues in the Aboriginal community and
the implications for First Nations program delivery and health educators is
explored from a First Nations perspective. The health education of First
Nations people has historically occurred in a field of contradictions and competing
interests. In the re-negotiation of the field it is incumbent on Aboriginal
and non-Aboriginal health educators to understand the historical emergence
of health issues in the context of relationships between colonial forces and
Aboriginal people. The re-negotiation of these relationships to restore
Aboriginal peoples to correct relationships with the land, each other, and the
colonizer may be understood as part of the work of healing. The devolution of
federal health programming to First Nations and provincial organizations
provides opportunities for new approaches. As adult educators providing these
services we must ask ourselves: Are we participating in dominance or health
education?

Résumé

Cet article retrace, du point de vue des peuples des Premières Nations, l'évolution
des soins de santé dans l'histoire autochtone, ainsi que sa portée sur la
formation des intervenants et la nature des programmes actuels. Le contexte
historique de l'éducation aux soins de santé est caractérisé par la confusion et
l'affrontement d'intérêts divergents. Il est important pour les intervenants
autochtones et non-autochtones de comprendre l'émergence de leur discipline
dans le contexte de la négociation entre peuples aborigènes et forces
colonisatrices. En renégociant cette relation, les peuples aborigènes pourront
retrouver un équilibre avec la nature et avec leurs semblables, et reconnaître
le rôle du colonisateur dans le processus de guérison. Le transfert des programmes
fédéraux vers les administrations autochtones et provinciales permet
d'entrevoir un changement favorable. Dans ce contexte, les éducateurs
d'adultes doivent déterminer a quel principe ils se vouent: à l'éducation aux
soins de santé, ou au maintien de la relation de domination?

A Cautious Welcome to the New Millennium
Authors: Ohliger John
Published: July 2024

This personal perspective takes a broad view of the impact of the
millennium on adult education. It is based on many years of
considering millennium issues in conjunction with a shared
correspondence forum among adult educators, an extensive millennium
bibliography, and development of The Millennium Survival Kit in 1990.
Caution flows from ideas expressed by these adult educators, as well as
ideas about Utopia, and trends in society. Positive approaches include
recognition that the millennium and time itself have a variety of
meanings; understanding that the year 2000 is of interest to only a
minority of the world's population; recognition that time moves in a
variety of directions, coupled with the realization that time itself can be
a great adult educator; and recognition that healthy movements toward
a truly democratic society are expressed by those authors who write
powerfully of their visions within different time vistas.

Résumé

Nous posons ici un large regard sur la pratique andragogique à l'aube
du nouveau millénaire. Notre vision est alimentée par une réflexion
s'étalant sur plusieurs années, par nos échanges au sein d'une tribune
d'éducateurs d'adultes, ainsi quepar une riche bibliographie et la
création du Millennium Survival Kit en 1990. Il se dégage de ces
échanges une mise en garde contre les notions d'utopie et de nouvelles
tendances sociales, et on relève un appel à la prudence. Plus
positivement, on reconnaît que le millénaire et la notion de temps elle-même
véhiculent de multiples significations. D'abord, l'An 2000 ne
présente d'intérêt que pour une minorité de gens à trovers le monde.
Puis, le passage du temps pent lui-même être perçu comme un important
facteur d'éducation des adultes. Enfin, on retrouve à trovers toutes les

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a critical topic on the agenda of actions on several social fronts, including education, due to their potential as a key component to address new challenges and promote sustainable action. This study investigates to what extent the teaching, research and extension processes of administration courses are aligned with the 2030 Agenda in the mission of promoting Sustainable Development. With a qualitative approach and exploratory and descriptive typology, primary sources resulting from interviews with students and professors are used, as well as secondary sources from documents from the administration course at the Federal University of Amapá, covering a period of 13 years. The results highlight a greater alignment of teaching, research and extension practices of the management course to the SDGs that deal with decent work and economic growth, industry, innovation and infrastructure, and peace, justice and effective institutions. On the other hand, the SDGs related to poverty eradication, gender equality, and clean water and sanitation need greater attention in the actions documented in the guidelines and academic planning instruments of the course. In addition, most actors perceive it as important to incorporate sustainable practices in the actions of the administration course, however there are still barriers that hinder this practical implementation, such as lack of managerial initiative, normative rigidity and cultural paradigms.
Importância do médico veterinário no diagnóstico de Criptorquidismo em equinos: Revisão de literatura
Authors: Tibúrcio Bruna Helena da Silva , Papa Luciene Patrici
Published: July 2024

Independente de lazer ou trabalho, a população de cavalos tem aumentado, devido à influência na relação entre os humanos e esses animais, elevando, assim, a relevância destes animais no cotidiano das pessoas. No processo reprodutivo dos equinos, podem ocorrer diferentes tipos de problemas, como falhas genéticas, podendo acontecer durante o processo de fecundação e desenvolvimento embriológico ou, ainda, por alguma mutação genética sofrida, sendo o criptorquidismo uma falha que ocorre durante o desenvolvimento. O criptorquidismo está definido como uma doença que afeta a progressão da descida dos testículos, sendo interrompida, de forma que um ou dois testículos ficam retidos na cavidade abdominal ou no canal inguinal. Esse trajeto realizado pelos testículos até a bolsa escrotal é um processo de alta complexidade e multifatorial, podendo apresentar falhas. O objetivo desse estudo foi verificar a importância do médico veterinário no diagnóstico do criptorquidismo em equinos, utilizando-se uma revisão de literatura. A classificação desta doença está baseada no canal inguinal e sendo nomeada como: criptorquida abdominal completo, criptorquida abdominal incompleto ou abdomino-inguinal e inguinal. Cabe ressaltar que os fatores genéticos são a principal causa do criptorquidismo, com grandes chances de ocorrência das mutações em mais de um gene e a tendência de ser padrão de herança autossômica recessiva. O diagnóstico e a conduta seguinte devem ser realizados pelo médico veterinário, devido à fatores como uma possível hereditariedade, onde o profissional responsável deve ser capaz de distinguir medidas necessárias para evitar o repasse, e o histórico desconhecido do animal, podendo apresentar castração anterior, fazendo necessário dosagem hormonal. Levando em consideração a importância da transmissão genética e do potencial desse animal para futuras gerações, considera-se imprescindível a atuação do médico veterinário na obtenção do diagnóstico precoce e tratamento adequado, permitindo controle da qualidade das futuras progênies.

Authors: de Lima Maria Angélica , da Assunção Hildeu Ferreira
Published: July 2024

Brazil is the world's leading coffee producer. Increased productivity has been observed in recent harvests due to new management and automation technologies. Even with the expectation of a reduction in national production, the state of Goiás has shown an increasing share in coffee production. The municipality of Rio Verde, in Goiás, is among the eight largest coffee producers in the state and is where the Fazenda da Mata enterprise, the main object of this research, is located. The objective of the research is to evaluate the performance of the production of Arabica coffee grown in an agroforestry system through studies on economic feasibility comparing the implementation costs plus the estimated costs and revenues of AFS with the conventional cultivation system. Coffee growing in AFS is a production system that requires research that presents results on economic analysis, thus the aim was to research the economic feasibility of growing coffee in AFS as a sustainable alternative for agribusiness, whose information can contribute to the decision-making of rural managers when comparing a conventional cultivation enterprise to AFS cultivation. Furthermore, AFS can contribute to increased agricultural productivity with less impact on the environment, revealing several possibilities of subsystems that can be applied to large, medium and small rural properties, considering the financial advantages and also the motivating values ​​that direct the farmer towards this agricultural activity. The economic analysis showed that the conventional cultivation system is more advantageous financially, however AFS also presented excellent results. Therefore, it is important to highlight other relevant factors that can be considered when deciding which cultivation system to use in coffee production. Although AFS presented lower financial results than the conventional system, it is a cultivation system that can provide a second source of income for the producer, such as the use of tree species.

Published: July 2024

This study investigated the use of mobile phone technology as a mitigation strategy for facilitating teaching and learning during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic-induced school closures in Tanzania. Employing an interpretive qualitative approach and a case study design informed by the Framework for the Rational Analysis of Mobile Education (FRAME), the study involved eleven (11) participants, encompassing one head teacher, three subject teachers, and seven parents. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentary reviews and subsequently analysed using content and thematic analysis techniques. Findings revealed a sense of shock among parents and teachers due to the unforeseen closure of schools, but they promptly embraced mobile phones as a means to sustain students’ learning. These devices facilitated the exchange of learning materials via text messages, calls, social media, and emails. However, limitations in instructional skills and financial constraints for smartphone purchase and internet connectivity among parents posed significant challenges. The study recommends collaborative efforts between the government and other stakeholders to establish a robust online learning infrastructure that can ensure educational continuity during unforeseen school closures.
