Authors: B Dr. Madhu
Published: July 2022

Abstract: Securing the Image and video data have applications in various fields like internet communication, multimedia systems, medical imaging, Telemedicine, and military communication. Watermarking protects digital intellectual property. It helps to prove the origin of an image and discourages unaccredited copies or distribution. The proposed method uses the concept of binding a secret message within another, ordinary, message. Our algorithm is used to unobtrusively hide a small message within the noisy regions of a larger image. Deep neural networks are simultaneously trained to create the hiding and revealing processes and are designed to specifically work as a pair. Different models are implemented to check the performance of the algorithm. The results are evaluated using 40,000 different types of images. With the state of art techniques like hiding the image in the least significant bits of the carrier image, our approach compresses and distributes the secret image’s representation across all of the available bits
Compute With Nearby Mobile Devices Using Work Stealing Algorithm – Cloud Technology
Authors: Rachana M.
Published: July 2022

Abstract: As mobile devices evolve to be powerful and pervasive computing tools, their usage also continues to increase rapidly. However, mobile device users frequently experience problems when running intensive applications on the device itself, or offloading to remote clouds, due to resource shortage and connectivity issues. Ironically, most users‟ environments are saturated with devices with significant computational resources. This paper argues that nearby mobile devices can efficiently be utilized as a crowd-powered resource cloud to complement the remote clouds. Node heterogeneity, unknown worker capability, and dynamism are identified as essential challenges to be addressed when scheduling work among nearby mobile devices. We present a work-sharing model, called Honeybee, using an adaptation of the well-known work stealing method to load balance independent jobs among heterogeneous mobile nodes, able to accommodate nodes randomly leaving and joining the system [3].The overall strategy of Honeybee is to focus on short-term goals, taking advantage of opportunities as they arise, based on the concepts of proactive workers and opportunistic delegator.

Authors: Barman Jeetumoni
Published: July 2022

Abstract: Plants are one of the most essential living organisms in our planet. Plants are useful for human beings in many different ways. Plants are beneficial both for ornamental and medicinal purpose. So, identifying the correct variety of plant belonging to the same species is very important. Botanist or experts in botanical knowledge can accomplish the task very easily. But everyone is not a botanist nor can acquire expert botanical knowledge to identify them accurately. So, an alternative approach is needed to identify the plant variety. Leaves play an important role in their identification among the six basic parts of plants viz. roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds. Among all the plant species available, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis (commonly known as China rose) is a plant which proves to be beneficial both as an ornamental and medicinal plant and are available in different varieties. But identifying the correct variety of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis with naked eye before the flower blooms on it is not an easy task. In this paper, we propose a CNN based Machine learning model to identify the different variety of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis species using plant leaf

Authors:   Bryansk State University, Lagerev Alexander
Published: July 2022

Single-span ropeways based on autonomous self-propelled wheeled chassis of high load capacity and cross-country capability are a promising type of mobile transport and overloading equipment for the rapid creation of logistics infrastructure for the sustainable development of hard-to-reach areas with complex natural terrain. They can also be effectively used for rapid deployment during transport operations in the foci of natural or man-made disasters. This article presents a mathematical model of the operation of a hydraulic drive with throttle control with sequential activation of adjustable throttles and a power hydraulic cylinder in relation to the mechanism of installing the end tower on the load-bearing frame of a self-propelled wheeled chassis of a mobile ropeway. The model includes a submodel of kinematic and force analysis of the end tower installation mechanism and a submodel of hydrodynamic analysis of working processes in the volumetric pumping hydraulic drive of this mechanism. The established calculated dependences make it possible to simulate the change during the time of installation of the end tower from the transport position to the working position of the basic quantitative parameters, including the speeds and accelerations of movement of the end tower and the rod of the lifting hydraulic cylinder, pressures and volumetric flow rates of the working fluid at characteristic points of the hydraulic system.

Published: July 2022

The work is devoted to the issue of increasing the lateral stability, handling and safety of a car with a lever-electromagnetic system of transverse stabilization. The road safety of vehicles should improve with the rapid development of vehicle dynamics. Knowledge of vehicle roll stability data is important for the development of vehicle stability systems that will improve road safety. As a result of a review of trucks and passenger vehicles, it was found that the normal anti-roll bars are used to increase lateral stability. At present, higher-class passenger cars have begun to use active stabilizers (anti-roll bars), which provide more efficient alignment of the car when cornering. The main disadvantage of a conventional anti-roll bar is the reduction in suspension travel and does not provide the necessary smoothness when cornering and when maneuvering. These movements can lead to dangerous traffic situations. Thus, unfavorable driving conditions are manifested in terms of vehicle stability and controllability, as well as a smooth ride, which determines the level of comfort during heavy cornering and maneuvering. A new vehicle active safety system has been proposed, which makes it possible to increase lateral stability. The given method of substantiating the design and operating parameters of the lever-electromagnetic lateral stabilization system, which increase the lateral stability of light-duty vans, and the results of a study on the example of a GAZelle NEXT cargo van when cornering and maneuvering are given.

Numerical integration of the equations of motion is carried out. The results are analyzed.
Inversion approach to traction calculation of tracked chassis of hoisting, construction and road machines
Authors:   Bryansk State Technical University, Goncharov K.A.
Published: July 2022

Tracked chassis are a common variant of the implementation of the movement mechanisms of hoisting-and-transport, construction, road machines, which has a number of advantages compared to rail-wheel, pneumatic-wheel and walking mechanisms, in particular, the absence of the need to equip work sites, as well as improved driving performance when moving over rough terrain. This article proposes an inversion approach to the traction calculation of a tracked chassis, which consists in presenting its traction and bearing element in the form of a closed loop, which makes it possible to apply the basic provisions of the theory of traction calculation of continuous transport machines to determine the resistance to movement and, accordingly, tensions in the contour of the track. The proposed approach makes it possible to estimate the contribution of various motion resistances to the total tractive effort during rectilinear motion, depending on the design features of each characteristic section of the track, taking into account the redistribution of the load between different tracks of the same chassis. The results obtained can be applied both in the design of classic special machines on a tracked chassis, and in the development of prototypes of tracked vehicles with displaced load application centers, in particular, tracked chassis of mobile transport and handling rope complexes.
`The handsome astronomer and the yelling lady': representing scientists and expertise in ‘Don't look up’
Authors: Chambers Amy C.
Published: July 2022

The film ‘Don't look up’ engages a woman science advisor, historically a very male-dominated role. Because the character of woman scientist Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence) cannot be easily transformed into a commodity, she is side-lined as a scientific voice as she attempts to warn Earth of the coming apocalypse. For marginalised scientists, their value depends on how their identity markers are used. ‘Don't look up’ is a satire of audience apathy, corporate greed, and media manipulation but still offers a very nihilistic vision of the impact of scientists and their expertise.
Social representations of covid-19 in the unstable information environment (a mid-2021 study)
Authors: Nazarov M. M. , Ivanov V. N. , Kublitskaya E. A.
Published: July 2022

The relevance of studying the social consequences of the covid-19 is determined by the fact that this transforming event affected the most diverse aspects of life in the Russian society. The article presents the results of the survey conducted on the sample of the Moscow residents in mid-2021. The majority of respondents considered the coronavirus as a dangerous disease that should be taken seriously. The phenomenon of coronavirus, due to its complexity, poor knowledge and mass distribution, has acquired not only a biomedical, but also a political, economic and media dimension. The information field about the origin, sources and measures to combat this disease experienced changes over time and was often contradictory. A typological analysis showed that there are several groups with different social ideas about the origin, control measures and social consequences of the covid-19. A significant group - about a half of respondents - shared ideas that were alternative to the official and dominant interpretation of the coronavirus in the information field. The study revealed that the agreement on the dangers of the coronavirus was combined with the priority of personal choice of means to combat it. The majority of respondents (61 %) were against the introduction of mandatory vaccination: among the most popular motives were doubts about its effectiveness and fears of its side effects; the priority of individual choice and the rights of citizens rather than the state. A statistically significant relationship was found between attitudes towards mandatory vaccination and trust in government: a low level of agreement with mandatory vaccination obviously correlates with a low level of trust in leading social-political institutions. The authors show that the Russian media discourse on the need for mass vaccination was accompanied by a wide spread of ideas that rigidly differentiate Russian citizens, which cannot but cause concerns about the tasks of ensuring social stability and unity of the Russian society.

The cautious faculty: Malaysian university researchers’ awareness, experiences, and attitudes towards Open Peer Review
Authors: Hodonu-Wusu James Oluwaseyi , Noorhidawati A. , Abrizah A.
Published: July 2022

The rationale of open peer review (OPR) is transparency as a general concept, where authors and reviewers’ identities are revealed and/or the reviews are published with the article. It is unclear whether there is an uptake for OPR from non-western researchers, given that there has been a geographical disparity in traditional peer review where non-western nations are under presented. As such, this study investigates the awareness, experiences, and attitudes of researchers in regard to OPR, which is part of a larger study that concentrated on the scholarly communication readiness of Malaysian researchers in open science. The data were gathered by means of a survey which obtained 135 responses from researchers based in five research universities in Malaysia. The main findings suggested that (a) attitudes towards OPR are reasonably positive with moderate levels of understanding and practices; (b) low awareness on open identities, open interactions and open reports traits of OPR; (c) a stronger levels of OPR experience amongst the sciences and younger researchers; and (d) the majority still have strong concerns about the transparency traits of OPR. The study concludes that OPR is not yet taking root among researchers from this emerging nation.

Cloud pricing models are essential in the context of the increasing availability of cloud service providers across the Internet and the willingness of users to use high-quality and affordable services. The double-sided combinatorial auction model has been used extensively due to its inherent characteristics. This paper presents a cost-effective pricing method that considers both the forward market and spot market. Moreover, resource requests are workflow or hybrid to support scalability and improve the number of federal cloud response requests. The evaluation results indicate more profit for both buyers and vendors simultaneously. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm reduces the waiting time and the number of pending demands, increasing users' satisfaction relative to cloud services.

Several studies examined the factors associated with self-rated health (SRH), but few studied the relationship between cognitive decline and SRH. The aim of this study was to explore the association between cognitive decline and SRH of Lebanese older adults. This is a secondary analysis of data collected for a cross-sectional study conducted in 2013 to assess prevalence of dementia among a selected representative sample of community older adults aged 65 years and above living in two governorates, Beirut and Mount Lebanon. 419 older adults with no dementia who answered the SRH question and had data on cognitive decline were included in this study. Cognitive decline was measured using the Arabic validated Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the elderly (IQCODE). Results show that around 43% reported moderate/bad SRH and 8.8% suffered from cognitive decline. Adjusting for nine confounders, our results showed that the odds of reporting moderate/bad SRH among older adults with cognitive decline was 2.91 times than that of those with no cognitive decline (p-value=0.016). As a conclusion, this study findings suggest that SRH is strongly correlated with cognitive decline. Health care providers in primary care centers, neurologists, and geriatricians can use the SRH question as a preliminary screen of older adults’ cognitive functions.

A ARTE DE BEM VIVER: APROXIMAÇÕES ENTRE O ESTOICISMO E A TERAPIA COGNITIVO-COMPORTAMENTAL
Authors: Costa de Oliveira Felipe , Silva Josué Candido
Published: July 2022

A arte de bem-viver ou felicidade (eudaimonia) foi o centro das preocupações de muitos filósofos no campo da ética. É claro que o bem-estar do indivíduo não depende só de suas escolhas, mas de uma série de fatores que fogem ao seu controle, como ter onde morar, trabalhar, as interações sociais, condições de saúde, etc. Os filósofos estoicos direcionaram suas reflexões para as modificações que o sujeito pode realizar em si mesmo através de práticas e exercícios que constituiriam, nas palavras de Foucault, as tecnologias do cuidado de si capazes de nos proporcionar a tranquilidade da alma e equilíbrio mental.  Atualmente, os cuidados da alma estão entregues, em grande medida, aos psicólogos, mas ainda podemos ver muitos pontos de contato entre a filosofia estoica e certas práticas terapêuticas. Nesse artigo, apresentaremos como os estoicos pretendiam realizar uma terapia filosófica da alma e como muitas de suas ideias filosóficas permanecem como fundamentos de determinadas correntes da Psicologia, particularmente da Terapia Cognitivo-Comportamental de Albert Ellis e Aaron Beck. Além dessas aproximações, exploraremos também os pontos de afastamento e especularemos se a filosofia dos estoicos teria ainda algo a nos dizer sobre o bem-viver no mundo contemporâneo.

For the management of the team, it uses aspects of the Scrum agile methodology. The application of this work arose due to the PIP selection process being carried out, mainly, in presence stages. A selection of jobs therefore becomes a slow process with a high demand for manual jobs and with several redundancies. Thus, the Management System of the Institutional Academic Permanence Program (sgPIP) developed in this work proposes to integrate the facilities associated with the selection of disks and control of the selection processes in a single web application.

O desperdício e a perda de alimentos ainda são uma dificuldade enfrentada em diversos países. Este fato dá-se, em alguns casos, pelo equívoco de acreditar que determinadas frações dos vegetais sejam insignificantes e comumente rejeitados. Aproveitar os alimentos integralmente reduz esse impacto somando-se aos benefícios nutricionais através de cascas, sementes e talos. Com isso, reduz-se o desperdício, o gasto com alimentação, melhora-se a qualidade nutricional da preparação e sua diversificação, pois em muitos alimentos o teor de nutrientes da parte não convencional é maior em relação às cascas e polpa. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo descrever as experiências sobre as ações de educação a respeito do aproveitamento integral dos alimentos e a elaboração de receitas, as quais usava-se as partes não convencionais dos alimentos que seriam descartadas pelo restaurante universitário (RU) do Centro de Educação e Saúde (CES) da Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG), por meio do projeto de extensão universitária: Nutrição na luta pelo consumo sustentável: a prática dos 3Rs na produção de refeições - Renutri. Percebeu-se que a elaboração e degustação das preparações na prática podem trazer mudança de estilo e hábitos de todos os envolvidos na dinâmica. Dito isso, houve uma redução de lixo orgânico do restaurante universitário e uma promoção das receitas com rico valor nutricional, o que pode diversificar o cardápio do local, assim como favorece uma mudança na esfera econômica e sustentável de quem executa tais preparações em casa. Dessa forma, a comunidade participante beneficiou-se da ação realizada por meio do conhecimento de estratégias do consumo integral dos alimentos que podem ser aplicadas no cotidiano de forma prática e saudável.

A crise gerada pela pandemia Covid-19 provocou diversos desafios para a humanidade. As viagens e deslocamentos foram cancelados em quase sua totalidade, tendo o setor de turismo como um dos mais impactados. Verificou-se, assim, o crescimento do uso das ferramentas de Marketing digital, como as mídias sociais, para reaproximar o consumidor dos produtos e serviços. Diante disso, o objetivo deste trabalho é avaliar a disseminação de conteúdos relacionados com o setor de turismo por meio de mídias sociais. A gestão destes perfis sociais faz parte de atividades realizadas no âmbito do projeto de extensão ENGAJATUR, desenvolvido no Curso de Tecnologia em Gestão de Turismo do IFSP, campus São Paulo. O trabalho para este artigo foi desenvolvido por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e pesquisa qualitativa com aplicação de questionário digital, respondidos por 60 pessoas. Os resultados apontam que houve crescimento das mídias sociais administradas pelo ENGAJATUR em número de seguidores, em quantidade de postagens e novas séries, demonstrando maior interesse dos seguidores em participar de lives, webinares e eventos online através dos canais digitais, bem como obter informações sobre a recuperação do setor de turismo. Indica-se possibilidades para melhorar a gestão dos perfis Facebook e LinkedIn, incluindo oportunidades de empregos e recuperação do mercado de trabalho.
A ARTE DE SABER E FAZER NA INVENÇÃO DO COTIDIANO PARA O EMPODERAMENTO DE UM ALUNO COM ALTAS HABILIDADES/SUPERDOTAÇÃO

Published: July 2022

Esta pesquisa objetiva compreender como a arte de saber e fazer na invenção do cotidiano contribui para o empoderamento de um aluno com altas habilidades/superdotação (AH/S). É uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa. Utilizamos como método de investigação a pesquisa (auto)biográfica através das narrativas de um aluno com AH/S. Os resultados apontam que o sujeito da pesquisa se apropria, socializa, discute, tece e reflete os saberes relativos aos contextos de (auto)formação, tais como familiar (pais, irmãs, primos, avós); escolar (gestores, apoio pedagógico, professores, alunos); Centro Regional de Educação Especial de Mossoró/RN - CREE-MOS (equipe pedagógica da educação especial, diversidade e eventos); virtual (aprendeu novos e diferentes saberes); profissional (na interação com o outro e diferentes espaços); pesquisa (sessões (auto)biográficas com o pesquisador) e toda essa rede complexa de relações que tecem o cotidiano e condiciona a não ser apenas um sujeito cognitivo, mas cultural, social e emocional que pulsa, respira, pensa e faz. As narrativas das experiências vividas, revelam seu empoderamento e proporcionam reflexões acerca de como acontece a inclusão de alunos com AH/S, pautadas no olhar para a diversidade, fundamentais para a concretização de práticas democráticas e emancipatórias.

O presente artigo teve como objetivo refletir sobre as contribuições da utilização das Tecnologias Digitais na educação a partir do relato de experiências desenvolvidas em duas escolas da educação básica de Pernambuco durante o período de ensino remoto.Utilizamos como aporte teórico estudos sobre a utilização das Tecnologias Digitais na Educação presentes na literatura.Como percurso metodológico, realizamos uma discussão sobre as potencialidades e contribuições trazidas pelas Tecnologias Digitais de Informação e Comunicação (TDIC) para o processo de ensino e aprendizagem dos estudantes, seguida de reflexões sobre algumas práticas pedagógicas que utilizaram as TDIC durante o período de ensino remoto em duas escolas do ensino médio. Os principais resultados mostraram que o uso das TDIC durante o período de ensino remoto proporcionou a minimização do distanciamento entre professores e seus estudantes, colaborou para tornar as aulas mais atrativas e significativas, permitiu estudar ambientes longínquos, contribuiu para pluralidade na divulgação científica, supriu a necessidade de práticas e aulas de campo e auxiliou no processo formativo dos bolsistas do PIBID.

Este artigo objetiva analisar as interfaces de atividades nos livros didáticos, do quinto ano do Ensino Fundamental (Anos Iniciais) com o uso das Tecnologias Digitais da Informação e Comunicação - TDIC. A coleção de livros analisadas é composta por 06 obras (Língua Portuguesa, Matemática, Ciências, Geografia, História e Artes), utilizada em escolas públicas da educação básica, de um município do interior baiano. Para tanto, adotamos uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa, do tipo exploratória e documental. Os dados produzidos foram analisados na perspectiva da análise de conteúdo, tendo como aporte Bardin (2011). Os resultados revelam que os livros didáticos apresentam poucas sugestões para trabalhar com a TDIC no cotidiano da sala de aula, especificamente nos livros de Matemática, História e Ciências. Outro aspecto que destacamos é que podem haver dificuldades para a realização das atividades recomendadas, em virtude da ausência dessa discussão no Documento Curricular Referencial-DCRI do município em questão. Concluímos que existe uma lacuna no que se refere a exploração das TDIC nos livros e as atividades propostas são incipientes. Além disso, a precariedade da estrutura de tecnologia das escolas é uma situação que poderá comprometer ou limitar a realização de atividades com estas interfaces, na rotina do cotidiano escolar.

Frente à atualização do perfil do egresso, das habilidades e das competências previstas nas Diretrizes Curriculares de Engenharia, e, juntamente ao aumento da oferta dos cursos de Engenharia no Brasil, fez-se necessário pensar em uma formação a partir do uso de metodologias ativas no processo de ensino. Este artigo, de abordagem metodológica de natureza qualitativa, desenvolve-se com o objetivo geral de entender quais habilidades e competências voltadas à docência são consideradas importantes para os professores, bem como qual a relação de seu desenvolvimento na sala de aula invertida. Aplicou-se um questionário a oito docentes dos cursos de Engenharia, cujos profissionais lecionam em duas unidades da mesma instituição privada de Ensino Superior. A análise dos dados, provenientes das perguntas semiestruturadas, foram analisadas por meio da categorização e da codificação de dados qualitativos, propostas por Gibbs (2009). A pergunta norteadora da pesquisa centra em: pela percepção dos professores, quais competências docentes são desenvolvidas pela metodologia ativa da sala de aula invertida? Quanto aos resultados, os professores acreditam ser as seguintes propostas: competências de liderança, planejamento, trabalho em equipe e aprendizagem autônoma, necessárias ao processo de ensino, podendo estas serem desenvolvidas por meio do método da sala de aula invertida.
