The preparation of transparent budget documents requires politicians to explain complex concepts to a wide range of audiences. This gives tangible benefits. Clear and transparent budget documents can enhance the impact of policy, budget planning, legislative oversight and citizen participation. Such reports allow policy makers to send signals about emerging economic and fiscal trends, helping shape public debate and anticipating future responses. An open budget that takes into account economic and fiscal realities in an understandable form promotes accountability and effective budget planning. This allows civil society organizations to interact with the budget. This, in turn, strengthens the social contract between citizens and the state. Certainly, clear writing not only aids relevant authorities in honing their budget strategy and policy thinking but also contributes to improved and more coherent policy decisions. The primary objectives of this research encompass an examination of how attributes like transparency, assessment, and goal accuracy in budget reporting influence budget efficiency. Additionally, the study explores the influence of risk management as a constraining factor on the correlation between budget characteristics and the resulting budget reports. In practical terms, the findings of this investigation aim to enhance the effectiveness of entities involved in the planning and execution phases, thereby contributing to overall operational improvement.

Authors: Deepmala Sharma  , Dr Saurabh Tege  , Deepti Mehta
Published: January 2024

This paper shows a Simulation Model of queuing process at airport security check-in system in Udaipur Airport using Simevent toolbox in Simulink MATLAB for implementing analytical Models. The queueing model is implemented in Simulink-MATLAB and is used to optimize the number of security servers. The model is used to simulate different scenarios with different arrival rates and number of servers. The input for simulation is inter-arrival time, service time and number of servers. The inter arrival time of passengers follows the Poisson distribution, and the service time follows Exponential distribution The results of the simulation shows that the optimal number of servers depends on the arrival rate of passengers. For low arrival rates, a smaller number of servers is sufficient. However, for high arrival rates, a larger number of servers is needed to avoid long queues. Simulation is scholastic process of events in which the times between events are random variables. The Simulation model is stochastic in behaviour which shows reality hence produces more reliable results. Stochastic analysis methods are recommended for queuing analysis to get accurate results. The Simulation model is therefore recommended to give Airport managers prior knowledge of system performance for planning and improved level of service (LOS) at airports. Additionally, the model could be extended to consider other factors that affect the security check-in process, such as the number of security lanes and the type of security equipment used. This document provides some minimal guidelines (and requirements) for writing a research paper. Issues related to the contents, originality, contributions, organization, bibliographic information, and writing style are briefly covered.

Published: January 2024

The proliferation of wireless communication technologies has spurred the exploration of novel approaches to address the increasing demand for high-speed data transmission and alleviate the challenges posed by radio frequency-based systems. Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) has emerged as a promising paradigm by harnessing visible light to establish data communication. This research paper delves into the intricate mechanics, capabilities, and potential applications of Li-Fi technology.
The underlying principles of Li-Fi involve the modulation of visible light using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit data in the form of binary signals. This modulation occurs at high speeds, beyond the perceptible range of the human eye, enabling the encoding and transmission of vast amounts of data. By capitalizing on the unexplored spectrum of visible light, Li-Fi not only offers remarkable data transfer rates but also addresses concerns related to electromagnetic interference, a constraint often encountered by radio frequency-based systems.
The significance of Li-Fi extends to diverse domains, including indoor wireless communication, the Internet of Things (IoT), and intelligent lighting systems. In environments where radio frequency signals encounter limitations, such as aircraft cabins and healthcare facilities, Li-Fi presents a compelling solution by providing reliable connectivity. Moreover, the integration of data communication capabilities
with existing illumination infrastructure has the potential to pave the way for energy-efficient smart environments, thereby aligning with contemporary sustainability objectives.

The implementation of a dependable and equitable decision-making process is of paramount importance and carries substantial influence within any organizational context. At present, decision-making procedures frequently depend on either traditional manual approaches or sophisticated technological resolutions. There are several challenges associated with these approaches, which encompass a dearth of transparency, low rates of participation, the possibility of manipulation, skepticism towards the decision-making body, counterfeiting of unique identification, prolonged delays in the dissemination of results, and significant security concerns. When contemplating the integration of a digital decision-making system, security throughout the entire process is invariably the foremost consideration. In light of the seriousness of the matters under consideration, it is indisputable that the system must ensure data security and prevent potential breaches. One plausible solution for mitigating these security challenges entails the utilization of blockchain technology. Blockchain, an implementation of decentralized ledger technology, enables the decentralized exchange of digital assets in a secure and transparent manner. In this regard, distributed ledger technology signifies a substantial progression; every block comprises an exhaustive ledger of every transaction. The defining features of blockchain technology are anonymity, decentralization, security, and transparency. The convergence of smart contracts and blockchain technology presents a profoundly auspicious prospect in the realm of constructing decision-making systems that place utmost importance on transparency, safety, and security. A prototype decision-making application was effectively developed and evaluated in this research endeavor by leveraging smart contracts on the Ethereum network. By integrating digital wallets, blockchain technology, and the Solidity programming language, this accomplishment was realized. A finite quantity of tokens, analogous to gas, is assigned to each user within their wallet. By depleting these tokens upon user participation in the decision-making process, duplicate actions are ensured to be prevented. In addition to examining the advantages and disadvantages of blockchain technology, the study presents a working prototype of a web application that is specifically engineered to optimize the process of making decisions. This highlights the intrinsic constraints of the system.

Published: January 2024

Digital radiography technology provides many advantages. However, there are still frequent repetitions of inspections due to failure to determine the exposure factor due to a decrease in image quality. Virtual Grid is a digital radiographic image processing technology that converts image quality that is deteriorating due to X-ray scattering to better image quality by reducing the effects of X-ray scattering. Application of a virtual grid can contribute to improving image quality and increasing the procedural efficiency of the workflow in a radiographic examination. This study uses a research-experimental design, with a One-Shot Case Study. The sample selection of 60 samples was carried out randomly by judgmental or purposive sampling. The sampling technique was carried out with specific considerations for the research objectives to determine the optimal exposure factor by using a virtual grid for the skull, lumbar, and pelvic radiographic examinations. Then, it was analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively visually by three radiologists—a bivariate analysis of data using one-way ANOVA. Qualitative analysis was carried out as well as a test. Feel free to assess the agreement of the informants. Results In the quantitative and qualitative analysis, the exposure factor and the ideal virtual grid ratio for optimization are skull AP: 106 kV, 2 mAs, ratio 14:1, skull lateral: 106 kV, 1.25 mAs, ratio 14:1, skull lumbar AP: 106 kV, 4 mAs, ratio 14:1, skull lumbar lateral: 113 kV, 6.3 mAs, 10:1 ratio, and pelvis AP: 92 kV, 8 mAs, 14:1 ratio.

Published: January 2024

Amid a lot of evolutionary methods (EMs), differential evolution (DE) is broadly used for various optimization issues. Though, it has rare shortcomings such as slow convergence, stagnation etc. Likewise, mutation and its control factor choice for DE is extremely inspiring for enhanced optimization. To increase the exploration competence of DE, a modified-DE (M-DE) is advised in this paper. It implemented a new mutation system, thru the perception of particle swarm optimization, to further trade off the population diversity. Meanwhile, centered on time-varying structure, new mutant control parameters incorporated with the suggested mutation scheme, to escaping local optima and keep evolving. Using the features of memory and robustly altered control parameters, exploitation and exploration ability of M-DE is well-adjusted. Also, admitted features of M-DE algorithm follows to speeding up convergence significantly. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of M-DE, groups of assessments have been piloted on six unimodal and seven multimodal benchmark suites. Performance of M-DE compared with different peer DE algorithms. According the investigational results, efficiency of the suggested M-DE technique has been confirmed.

How Deep are the Roots of Swedish Egalitarianism? A multidimensional approach
Authors: Ericsson Johan , Molinder Jakob
Published: January 2024

When did Sweden become equal? This question has far-reaching implications for our understanding of Swedish history, as well as for theories about inequality, institutions, and politics more broadly. In this article, we present the first multidimensional comparative analysis of the development of inequality in Sweden. Unlike most other studies, we combine a variety of measures to provide a more comprehensive view of inequality. Our findings reveal that, although the share of income and wealth accruing to the absolute top was very high at the beginning of the 20th century, Sweden was more equal than many other countries when focusing on the lower parts of the income distribution. Additionally, several indicators suggest that the decline in inequality began in the decades before the turn of the 19th century. These results imply that the development of the Swedish welfare state was both a cause and a consequence of decreasing inequality. We emphasize the importance of widespread access to education as a key factor in shaping distributional outcomes.

The transformation of Pojian art into the creation of innovative music compositions can be an alternative to regenerate the existance of Pojhian art actors. This effort is to maintain the existence of Pojhian art in the midst of the onslaught of increasingly sophisticated technology, so that it can stimulate the attractiveness of the millennial generation to be proud and take part in the Pojian art which is full of noble values. The purpose of this research is to find out the extent to which the potential of the performance form and song material in Pojian can be exposed to be fresher through the novelty of original musical works. The method used in this research consists of 2 stages, namely; conceptual stage and operational stage. The conceptual stage con- sists of determining objectives, determining musical themes, gathering information, analyzing information, determining instruments, melodies and determining artistic design. The operational stage includes music exploration, notation modification, arrangement variation, music composition, song verse writing, notation writing, artistic design selection and artistic research. There are 3 types of data in this research that are used as measuring instruments, namely; validity, originality of artwork, and novelty. The test subjects in this study were two validators, namely validators of traditional art preservationists to measure the suitability of the appli- cation of the Pojhiân art presentation structure contained in the Gâdhisa ritual and validators of music experts (composers) to measure the originality of the work, and the novelty of the music composition presented.
YOKLUKTAN FARKLILIĞA ÇOCUKLUK, NİCELDEN NİTELE ÇOCUKLUK ÇALIŞMALARI
Authors: Tekin Yılmaz Tülay
Published: January 2024

“Çocuk” insanlık tarihi boyunca var olan ve var olacak bir gelişim evresi iken“çocukluk” çocuğa yüklenen anlamla ilgili olması nedeniyle bu iki kavram birbirinden ayrılmaktadır. Çocuk biyolojik bir anlam ifade ederken, çocukluk toplumsal süreçler tarafından belirlenen ve dolayısıyla her toplumda ve tarihte farklılık gösteren bir kavramsallaştırmadır. Bu nedenle çocuk yetişkinden farklı olan bireye işaret etmekte, çocukluk ise çocuğa yüklenen anlam ve öneme göre şekillenmektedir. Dolayısıyla çocukluk sürekli olarak yetişkinlerin düşünce dünyaları ve bu dünyayı şekillendiren toplumsal süreçler tarafından yeniden tanımlanmaktadır.
Düşünce dünyasını şekillendiren toplumsal süreçlerle birlikte çocukluk fikrinin de değişime uğrayarak farklı aşamalardan geçtiğinin kabul edilmesi yeni bir çalışma alanının doğmasına sebep olmuş ve böylece 20. yüzyılın başlarından itibaren pozitivist bilim anlayışının etkisiyle çocuk bir çalışma nesnesi haline gelmiştir. Bu tarihten itibaren tıpkı çocukluk fikrinde olduğu gibi çocukluk çalışmaları da konjonktüre göre şekillenmiş ve değişime uğramış, her bir çocuğun çocukluk deneyiminin, toplum içindeki konumlarının, yetişkinler tarafından algılanmalarının ve ilişki kurma biçimlerinin değiştiğine dair bir algı oluşmuştur. Toplumsal süreçlere katılım noktasında sosyalleşme biçimleri açısından ele alınan, yani toplum tarafından şekillenen bireyler olarak görülen çocuklar 20. yüzyılın sonlarında toplumu şekillendiren etkin failler olarak kabul edilmeye başlanmışlardır. Özellikle sosyal bilimler alanında yaşanan bu düşünsel değişim beraberinde çocuklarla yapılan çalışmalarda çocuğun çalışmanın merkezine oturtulmasına neden olmuştur. Sonuç olarak söz konusu metodolojik ve teorik değişim çocukluk çalışmalarında da bir yön değişikliğine neden olmuş, başlarda olduğu gibi çocuklar bilimin nesnesi olmaktan çıkıp öznesi konumuna geçmiştir.
Bu çalışmanın amacı çocukluk fikrinin ve çocukluk çalışmalarının geçirdiği tarihsel dönüşümle birlikte ortaya çıkan yeni çocukluk çalışmalarında çocuğa nasıl yaklaşılması gerektiğine dair teorik tartışmaları ortaya koyabilmek ve çocuklarla yapılan çalışmalarda nasıl bir metodoloji izlenmesi gerektiğini aktarabilmektir. Çünkü tıpkı kadınlar gibi çocuklar da onlar adına konuşan erkeklerin deneyimlerinden ve düşüncesinden yola çıkan sosyal bilimler alanında uzun bir süre yok sayılmışlar. 21. yüzyılda ise çocuklar sosyal bilim alanının içinde kendi sesleri ve sözleri ile var olmayı hak etmektedirler.

Background: An Electronic Medical Record (EMR) is an essential tool for delivering high-quality healthcare in a hospital. In recent years, hospitals have increased their investment in EMRs to improve the level of integrated management of information. The purpose of this study was to explore the perspectives of using EMR among healthcare providers (HCPs) in a corporate hospital in Bangladesh.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 153 HCPs (doctors, nurses, lab technicians, drug dispensers, billing managers, and administrative personnel) who have access to EMR and working in a selected corporate hospital of Dhaka city. The study period was January to December 2019. HCPs were selected by convenience sampling technique. Data were collected by face-to-face interview using semi structured questionnaire. Data analysis was done by IBM SPSS software. Ethical issues were maintained strictly.

Result: Study revealed that 59.5% HCPs were in the age group of 18-29 years with the mean age being 29.26 (±7.58) years. Only 32.7% HCPs had previous experience of using this type of software before working in the current hospital and 62.7% got technical training on EMR within the current hospital. The majority (81.7%) of the HCPs found that the technical training was effective for using the EMR software. The difficulty of using EMR was significantly associated with the age (p<0.001), gender (p<0.001), professional status (p<0.001) and highest level of education (p<0.001) of the HCPs. HCPs ability to overcome job related challenges was significantly associated with the professional status of them (p<0.001). HCPs perception regarding effectiveness of EMR was found significantly associated with their place of technical training (p=0.004) and duration of the training (p=0.012).

Conclusion: EMR can be a helpful tool for the health service providers to provider health services at the corporate hospitals. Digital literacy need to be increased among the HCPs to ensure effective use of EMRs. Regular maintenance and upgrades of the technology infrastructure are necessary for advanced record-keeping and quality service.

Evaluation on the insecticidal action of polyphenolic compound from Streblus asper (Lour.) on the red cotton bug, Dysdercus cingulatus (Fab.) (Hemiptera, Pyrrhocoridae)
Authors: Anila L. , Hashim M.S.
Published: January 2024

The study aims to evaluate oxidative stress and the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), upon applying polyphenolic bioinsecticide isolated from Streblus asper (PBSA) at a concentration of 0.595 ?g/insect (LD50) by topical application on Dysdercus cingulatus Fabricius (Red cotton bug- Hemiptera, Pyrrhocoridae). The results demonstrated that the active fraction exhibited significant inhibition in activities of AChE, antioxidant enzymes and Glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and a significant increase in the lipid peroxides (MDA/ TBARS) which led to the fact that D. cingulatus became more susceptible to the tested PBSA. The study has provided basic information on the mechanism of action of PBSA that will be promising to develop effective alternatives to synthetic insecticides.

The efficacy of pongamia oil soap was tested on red spider mites and on its predators (rove beetle, Oligota sp. and predatory gall midge, Feltiella acarisuga Vallot). Pongamia oil soap at 0.6, 1, 2 and 3 per cent along with neem oil 0.6 per cent, soap solution 0.5 per cent and thiamethoxam 25 WG were investigated and observations were recorded on, a day prior to and, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days after spray application. The results revealed that pongamia oil soap @ 3, 2 and 1 per cent shown mite population reduction up to 86.50, 84.57 and 79.27 per cent respectively. Richness of mite predators didn’t vary significantly at one day after spray and the maximum population was observed in soap solution - (4.33/5 plants). Population of mite predators was relatively high at 14 days after spray with soap solution (35.67 per five plants) which was at par with pongamia oil soap @ 0.6, 1 and 2 per cent.

Published: January 2024

Eri silkworm (Samia ricini D.) pupae based fish feed, for common carp (Cyrinus carpio L.) advanced fry, in indoor aquaria was evaluated with eight different diets. Eri silkworm pupae meal (ESWPM) based fish feeds influenced the growth of common carp significantly. Fortnightly growth measurements of the carp in eight treatments showed maximum in ESWPM alone and in ESWPM 100 per cent treatments. The proximate nutrient and amino acid composition varied in the fish feed diets. ESWPM based fish feed recorded significant impact on the carp with reference to its weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and relative growth rate.
