Published: May 2024

In today's digitally connected world, giving secure data packet transmission in public spaces is paramount. Traditional encryption methods have limitations when it comes to protecting sensitive records from sophisticated cyber threats. This chapter proposes a novel approach leveraging generative adversarial networks (GANs) and block formed chain structured technology to enhance data packets security in public spaces. The proposed methodology, dubbed SecureGANChain, utilizes a machine learning-driven algorithm to encrypt and transmit data packets securely across public networks. SecureGANChain harnesses the power of GANs to generate encryption keys dynamically, making it extremely difficult for adversaries to intercept or decipher transmitted data packets. Additionally, block formed chain structured technology is employed to create a tamper-proof and immutable ledger, giving the integrity and authenticity of transmitted data packets.
Privacy-Preserving Data Aggregation Techniques for Enhanced Security in Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors: Vora Ahad Abbas , Maheboobbhai Tanveerhusen , Mohammad Faaiz Patni Vora , Verma Shanti
Published: May 2024

In the SecureSense system, the authors propose a machine learning methodology for data aggregation that prioritizes privacy preservation while maintaining data utility. This approach utilizes a combination of techniques such as federated learning and differential privacy. Federated learning allows individual sensor nodes to train a local machine learning model using their own data while keeping it on-device, thus minimizing the need to transmit raw data across the network. This decentralized training process helps preserve privacy by avoiding centralized data aggregation points where sensitive information could be compromised. Additionally, the authors incorporate differential privacy mechanisms to further protect the privacy of individual data points during the aggregation process.

Authors: Chourasia Harshita , Chourasia Devendra , Wanjari Shrutika , Khan Mohammad Imran
Published: May 2024

An important development in the field of traffic surveillance is enhanced video quality with ESRGAN, which provides law enforcement with unmatched clarity and accuracy when observing traffic, vehicles, and drivers. Through a significant increase in the resolution and clarity of traffic camera footage, ESRGAN provides authorities with images that are clearer and more comprehensive than those produced by traditional surveillance technologies. This upgrade not only improves the footage's visual quality but also increases the effectiveness of monitoring systems by giving them a better understanding of the dynamic environment of roads. ESRGAN enables authorities to detect and respond to events quickly and decisively by giving them a sharper and more comprehensive picture of road accidents. To put it briefly, enhanced video quality using ESRGAN is essentially a paradigm shift in traffic surveillance that raises the bar for monitoring system capabilities.

Published: May 2024

Black sexually minoritized men (BSMM) are the most likely to acquire HIV in Chicago- a racially segregated city where their daily travel may confer different HIV-related risks. From survey and GPS data among participants of the Neighbourhoods and Networks Cohort Study, we examined spatial (proportion of total activity space away from home), temporal (proportion of total GPS points away from home), and motivation-specific (discordance between residential and frequented sex or socializing neighbourhoods) dimensions of mobility. To identify potential drivers of BSMM’s risk, we then examined associations between mobility and sexual behaviours known to cause HIV transmission: condomless anal sex, condomless anal sex with a casual partner, transactional sex, group sex, and sex-drug use. Multivariable logistic regression models assessed associations. Of 269 cisgender BSMM, most were 20-29 years old, identified as gay, and lowincome. On average, 96.9% (Standard Deviation: 3.7%) of participants’ activity space and 53.9% (Standard Deviation: 38.1%) of participants’ GPS points occurred outside their 800m home network buffer. After covariate adjustment, those who reported sex away from home were twice as likely to report condomless sex (Odds Ratio: 2.02, [95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.08, 3.78]). Those who reported socializing away from home were four times more likely to have condomless sex with a casual partner (Odds Ratio: 4.16 [CI: 0.99, 29.0]). BSMM are on the move in Chicago, but only motivation-specific mobility may increase HIV transmission risk. Multidimensional investigations of mobility can inform place-based strategies for HIV service delivery.

Implementation of Educational Opportunities for Social Determinants of Health in Health Professions Education: A Scoping Review
Authors: Picha Kelsey J. , Jones Bailey , Garcia CJ , Winkelmann Zachary K.
Published: May 2024

Objective

Health professions programs have recently increased their efforts to educate health care professionals about the social determinants of health (SDH); however, there seems to be a disconnect between graduate medical education and its applicability to other peer health professions. The current scoping review aims to map the literature that explores the implementation of educational opportunities focused on SDH in health professions education programs.

Data Sources

PubMed, CINAHL, ERIC, Education Source, and the Health Policy Reference Center were searched to identify relevant articles.

Study Selection

To be included in our review, articles had to have been published in the last 5 years and describe how material related to SDH was implemented into a graduate health professions education program. Outcomes were analyzed by thematic categories by type of curricular delivery (didactic, clinical education, service-learning experience, or reflection), timing of the implementation in the program, methods of implementation, and assessment after implementation.

Data Extraction

Our search identified 2006 articles that were reviewed by study authors; 36 were included in our full-text review. Information extracted included the study design, type of graduate education, aims of the studies, description of technique, timing of implementation, type of curricular delivery, and outcomes.

Data Synthesis

The majority (23, 63.9%) of studies used an observational design and used 2 or more (27, 75.0%) types of curricular delivery presented to medical students. Didactic (19, 52.8%) and small-group discussion (14, 38.9%) methods were used most often. Assessments were mostly student reflections or self-report items. Overall, students reported increased knowledge and satisfaction with activities.

Conclusions

Results of our scoping review indicated that various education opportunities related to SDH exist in graduate health professions education but are likely insufficient. More studies are necessary to investigate the purposeful implementation of SDH and the best methods to assess student knowledge of SDH. Future research should also investigate how to objectively assess student learning of SDH.
Energy scattering for a 3D Hartree equation with inverse square potential
Authors: Saanouni Tarek , Ghanmi Radhia
Published: May 2024

This work studies the focusing inhomogeneous nonlinear equation of Hartree type

\mathrm{i} \partial_{t} u-\mathcal{K}_{\lambda}u +|x|^{-\tau}|u|^{p-2}(\mathcal{J}_{\alpha} *|\cdot|^{-\tau}|u|^{p})u=0, \quad u(t,x):\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}^{3}\to\mathbb{C}.

Here, the linear Schrödinger operator reads

\mathcal{K}_{\lambda}:= -\Delta+\frac{\lambda}{|x|^{2}}

for some

\lambda>-\frac{1}{4}

. The Riesz potential is

\mathcal{J}_{\alpha}(x)=C_{\alpha}|x|^{-(3-\alpha)}

for certain

0<\alpha<3

. The singular decaying term

|x|^{-\tau}

for some

\tau>0

gives an inhomogeneous non-linearity. One considers the inter-critical regime, namely,

1+\frac{2(1-\tau)+\alpha}{3}
0

because there is no dispersive estimate

L^{1}\to L^{\infty}

for

\lambda<0

. Contrarily to the homogeneous case

\tau=0

, for

\lambda>0

, there is a ground state which minimizes the associated Gagliardo–Nirenberg-type estimate. The purpose is to investigate the energy scattering of global solutions under the ground state threshold. One uses the method of Dodson–Murphy based on Tao’s scattering criteria and Morawetz estimates. The decay of the inhomogeneous term

|x|^{-\tau}

avoids any spherically symmetric assumption.
Evaluation of the potential impact on alcohol misuse of a “Responsible Off-Licensing Scheme” in Cheltenham
Authors:   , Martin Peter
Published: May 2024

The World Health Organisation alcohol strategy (2012-20) and the UK Government’s Alcohol Strategy (2012) aim to develop and implement effective, socially responsible, self-regulating initiatives for reducing the impact of alcohol misuse. This study aims to identify the impact of current features of off-licensing practice on problems relating to alcohol misuse in Cheltenham, to identify the features of responsible off-licensing schemes introduced elsewhere and to make recommendations for the introduction of a new responsible off-licensing scheme. Cheltenham’s Lower High Street was selected as a case study. A small survey using open-ended questions was carried out in the area with willing participants; in addition, observations were made of small off-licence premises. Themes and concerns arising include the availability of high strength alcohol, under-age drinking, homelessness, abuse of other substances and anti-social behaviour. No clear link is established between these concerns and the presence of off-licences. Public health models/ multiple-component, socially responsible models were examined for their efficacy at reducing or preventing alcohol misuse and their capacity to deal with the broader problems in Cheltenham’s Lower High Street. In particular, the author reviewed schemes known as ‘Reduce the Strength’ and the ‘Community Action-Community Alcohol Partnership’; evaluation documents and minutes of relevant Council meetings were analysed, and practitioners interviewed. There is a lack of robust rigorous independent evidence on the schemes, but findings suggest they could usefully be adopted to address the types of problem found in Cheltenham, although they cannot operate in isolation.
On Tools for Completeness of Kleene Algebra with Hypotheses
Authors: Pous Damien , Rot Jurriaan , Wagemaker Jana
Published: May 2024

In the literature on Kleene algebra, a number of variants have been proposed
which impose additional structure specified by a theory, such as Kleene algebra
with tests (KAT) and the recent Kleene algebra with observations (KAO), or make
specific assumptions about certain constants, as for instance in NetKAT. Many
of these variants fit within the unifying perspective offered by Kleene algebra
with hypotheses, which comes with a canonical language model constructed from a
given set of hypotheses. For the case of KAT, this model corresponds to the
familiar interpretation of expressions as languages of guarded strings. A
relevant question therefore is whether Kleene algebra together with a given set
of hypotheses is complete with respect to its canonical language model. In this
paper, we revisit, combine and extend existing results on this question to
obtain tools for proving completeness in a modular way. We showcase these tools
by giving new and modular proofs of completeness for KAT, KAO and NetKAT, and
we prove completeness for new variants of KAT: KAT extended with a constant for
the full relation, KAT extended with a converse operation, and a version of KAT
where the collection of tests only forms a distributive lattice.
Mathematical Software: A Panacea for Improving Senior Secondary School Students’ Retention in Geometrical Constructions
Authors: Age Terungwa James , Machaba Masilo France
Published: May 2024

When attempting to address the persistently poor performance of students in mathematics, researchers have typically examined factors such as retention to identify long-term solutions. The objective of this study was to improve the retention of senior secondary school students in geometrical constructions through mathematical software. Despite the many benefits of geometry to both the learner and society, the performance of the students continued to be abysmal. Could it be that the students do not retain what they learn? The research was conducted in Benue State, Nigeria, and was based on John Sweller’s cognitive load theory of multimedia. The study’s design utilised a non-randomised, quasi-experimental control group with a sample size of 457 students. Three objectives, research questions and research hypotheses led the study, with the Geometrical Construction Achievement Test and the Geometrical Construction Retention Test as the instruments for data collection. The mean and standard deviation of descriptive statistics were used to analyse the data that was gathered. The research reveals that retention was higher in the experimental group (Mean = 65.88) than in the control group (Mean = 51.87). The study found a statistically significant improvement in retention (p ˂ 0.05). No gender variations were found when the students were taught with mathematical software. Mathematics teachers’ utilisation of mathematical software as a strategy for teaching geometrical constructions among senior secondary school students was recommended.
Utility of Partitioning of Standard Base Excess in Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis with Hyperchloremic Acidosis
Authors: Kim Sehui , Jee Dae-Lim , Chun Suyoun , Baek Jongyoon
Published: May 2024

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EDKA) can be difficult to recognize during surgery, particularly when the anion gap (AG) is within the normal range. A 73-year-old female patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus underwent surgical adhesiolysis and enterostomy for intestinal obstruction. The patient showed a normal serum glucose level and hyperchloremic acidosis but had an accumulation of unmeasured anions (UA) detected by partitioning of the standard base excess (SBE). This prompted testing for serum ketones, which confirmed the presence of EDKA during surgery. The calculation of the hyperchloremic base deficit as a percentage of the total acidifying base deficit revealed a significant contribution of hyperchloremic acidosis to the severity of mixed metabolic acidosis. The AG approach can misdiagnose high AG metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) with hyperchloremic acidosis as hyperchloremic acidosis only. Partitioning of the SBE can be useful for detecting UA when both HAGMA and hyperchloremic acidosis are present, and it may help determine the necessity of treating hyperchloremia during EDKA.

The study focuses on the process of converting peanut shells into high-quality pulp through various methods such as chemical and mechanical pulping. The paper further discusses the potential benefits, challenges, and environmental implications of using peanut shell pulp as a sustainable alternative to conventional wood-based pulps. The findings of this research contribute to the growing body of knowledge on sustainable resource management and promote the utilization of agricultural waste for value- added applications.
Analizar el acoso laboral y su clasificación establecida en el Z56 del CIE 10, dentro del derecho penal
Authors: Alvarado Gutiérrez Edwin Stalyn , Flores Idrovo Luis Manuel
Published: May 2024

El mobbing o acoso laboral constituye una grave violación de los derechos humanos de los trabajadores, afectando su integridad física, psicológica y social. La ausencia de sanciones adecuadas en las leyes vigentes fomenta la impunidad y el incremento de este tipo de comportamientos, sin discriminación de género entre las víctimas. En muchos casos, la responsabilidad de abordar estas situaciones recae en los empleadores, quienes no siempre adoptan las medidas necesarias para solucionarlo. Esta falta de acción puede generar consecuencias devastadoras, como la pérdida de empleo, impactando negativamente en la vida familiar y en el bienestar emocional de los afectados. Es imperativo destacar cómo las decisiones tomadas por los empleadores fuera del ámbito legal no ofrecen una solución efectiva al problema, dejando a los trabajadores en una situación de vulnerabilidad continua. Por lo tanto, resulta fundamental implementar medidas legales efectivas que prevengan y castiguen el acoso laboral, asegurando así un entorno laboral seguro y respetuoso para todos los individuos económicamente activos dentro del país.

Authors: Siqueira José Fábio Cardoso Correia , Lima Erika Leticia da Silva de , Oliveira Maria Margarete de
Published: May 2024

O Projeto Fenômeno Cangaço: O Lampião Que Não Se Apaga surgiu como forma de resgate da cultura nordestina no que diz respeito à influência do cangaço na música, na alimentação, na arte da cura com plantas medicinais, no vestuário, incluindo também o uso de couro na confecção de vestimentas utilizadas pelos cangaceiros. A pesquisa oportunizou aos alunos da EEEP Balbina Viana Arrais, em Brejo Santo - Ceará, conhecer alguns dos lugares no Nordeste por onde se passou esse fenómeno; e perceber o papel da mulher nos bandos e, principalmente, a organização desses grupos. A literatura de cordel mostrou-se de fundamental importância para o estudo desse fenômeno, por revelar a humanização do cangaço através da participação da mulher. Além desses conhecimentos através de cordéis, livros e coletas de informações, foi realizado um estudo das músicas de Luiz Gonzaga que contam a história da bravura dos nordestinos. O cangaço determinou marcas profundas na nossa história, na nossa cultura e por isso não devemos deixar apagar essa luz da memória daqueles tempos em que o nordestino, segundo o escritor Euclides da Cunha, era e ainda é antes de tudo, um forte.

On August 24, 2011, during the cruise of R/V Professor Vodyanitsky in the Black Sea, bottom sediments were sampled from the hydrogen sulfide zone at a depth of 756 m at the station with coordinates 44°40ʹ70"N, 31o51ʹ70"E. The sample was taken using an automatic “Shelf” box corer (United States). A sediment core of 40 cm high was cut out of the box corer. The sediment core is further cut horizontally in 5 cm (8 samples). The sediment is homogeneous dark gray silt with thin white stripes and the smell of hydrogen sulfide. Eighteen species of fungi were found in sediments, 3 taxa were identified to genus level, the taxa were assigned to 11 genera, 10 families, 10 orders, 7 classes from the phylums Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Mucoromycota. Representatives of the classes Eurotiomycetes (8) and Dothideomycetes (4) dominated in the taxonomic composition of mycocomplexes of sediments in the Black Sea. The abundance of micromycetes varied from 40 (horizon 15–20 cm) to 3300 CFU g-1 dry sediment (horizon 5–10 cm); the maximum number of taxa (5) was recorded
in the horizon of 25–30 cm. The representatives of the phylum Ascomycota dominated in the samples in terms
of the number of taxa – 91.23%.

Pensar o ensino médio no atual contexto socioeconômico e cultural brasileiro a partir de bases epistêmicas sustentadas por Dermeval Savani, Edgar Morin, Pedro Demo, entre outros pensadores, e a partir de estatísticas, com intencionalidade propositiva, são objetivos da presente reflexão. O texto desenvolve esforço no sentido de compreender a situação das juventudes em idade para frequentar o ensino médio e tece algumas articulações na perspectiva do compromisso do Estado com a formação integral tanto de estudantes quanto da docência. Sugere a relação entre o projeto de educação e o projeto de sociedade apontando para a necessidade de que os processos educativos para o ensino médio cuidem, pela ação do Estado republicano, democrático, de direito para todos e todas, para desenvolver uma educação de formação integral. Sugere que a educação integral tenha acento científico e humanista e valorize as experiências de estudantes trabalhadores. O compromisso do Estado, no ensino médio, deve incorporar o acesso amplo, o desenvolvimento de condições de permanência e aprendizado das juventudes. A formação integral de caráter humanista e científico construída em bases dialógicas e solidárias são condições de aprendizado desde a escola, na perspectiva de assegurar a incorporação de valores que possam sustentar a república, a democracia, a equidade, a justiça social, a equidade, a ciência e a educação pública para todos e todas.
percepção dos professores de Educação Física sobre a política do novo Ensino Médio na rede estadual de ensino de Mato Grosso do Sul
Authors: Lourenço Otavio Bonjiovanne , Duarte Rodrigo Gonçalves , Silva Dirceu Santos
Published: May 2024

O Novo Ensino Médio (NEM) corresponde a uma política proposta no Governo Temer, por meio da Medida Provisória nº 746/2016, promulgada como Lei nº 13.415/2017. O prazo de implementação da reforma deveria ocorrer entre 2022 e 2024, mas o estado de Mato Grosso do Sul (MS) iniciou sua implementação com as escolas piloto, em 2019, e para toda a Rede Estadual de Ensino (REE) em 2021. Neste contexto, o objetivo foi analisar a percepção dos professores de Educação Física sobre a política do NEM na REE/MS. Utilizou-se de uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa e coleta de dados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada, com sete professores da REE/MS. A análise foi inspirada no referencial teórico marxista. Os resultados apontaram que os professores de Educação Física não participaram do planejamento e não conheciam a política do NEM. Além disso, tiveram que atuar em disciplinas que não estavam relacionadas a sua formação inicial, sem qualquer tipo de orientação formativa. O NEM foi formulado por gestores que desconhecem o contexto de prática da política, e cada escola tem implementado o seu próprio modelo. Conclui-se que o NEM corresponde uma política neoliberal, que foi promulgada de forma unilateral, com o objetivo de formar para a educação profissional, focado no mercado de trabalho e nos interesses capitalistas.

Published: May 2024

A proposta do Novo Ensino Médio provocou mudanças na concepção da educação no Brasil, entre as quais o olhar para o protagonismo juvenil. Nesse sentido, este artigo busca analisar as interlocuções de professores e alunos a respeito do protagonismo juvenil no Ensino Médio (EM). Para isso, a metodologia de abordagem descritiva consistiu na realização de grupos de discussões com professores e alunos do 1º ano do EM de uma escola privada que estabeleceu parceria com uma universidade, para a constituição de uma nova matriz curricular. Por meio da Análise Textual Discursiva, emergiram três categorias de análise. Na categoria A parceria escola-universidade como oportunidade, evidenciou-se que a implantação do EM pela integração entre as instituições foi além da simples reformulação curricular, promovendo o amadurecimento da identidade das juventudes e fortalecendo a interlocução entre professores e alunos. Na categoria A constituição da identidade das juventudes pela interação, verificou-se que, apesar dos desafios, a experiência oportunizou espaços para a participação dos estudantes, para que os jovens pudessem construir suas próprias identidades e formas de conceber o mundo. Já na categoria A organização curricular para a autonomia, evidenciou-se que a concepção curricular transversal constituiu-se elemento transformador, resultando em experiências mais dinâmicas, engajadoras e voltadas para a autonomia. Concluiu-se que, embora os processos de implantação possam ser desafiadores, a experiência criou espaços para reflexões sobre o protagonismo juvenil na construção de uma sociedade mais participativa, dialógica e democrática, tornando os jovens protagonistas conscientes de suas trajetórias de vida.
Projeto de vida no "novo" Ensino Médio no estado do Ceará e a institucionalização da agenda globalmente estruturada para a educação (AGEE)

Published: May 2024

O presente estudo, resultado de pesquisa desenvolvida no âmbito do grupo de pesquisa Observatório do Ensino Médio/CE, vinculado à Universidade Federal do Ceará, traz em seu conteúdo uma discussão sobre o Projeto de Vida no currículo do “Novo” Ensino Médio (NEM) no estado do Ceará e tem como objetivo evidenciar a articulação das proposições do Projeto de Vida com a agenda globalmente estruturada para a educação (AGEE). (DALE, 2024). Metodologicamente, o estudo desenvolve uma análise política do discurso, tomando por base documentos normativos relativos à implementação do NEM, compreendendo documentos institucionais disponíveis no site da Secretaria de Educação do estado do Ceará relativos ao Projeto de Vida e o material didático do Projeto de vida. O estudo também contempla uma pesquisa de campo com a participação de 84 estudantes do município de Fortaleza, estado do Ceará. Do estudo desenvolvido é possível concluir que a proposição do Projeto de vida do NEM não dialoga com as demanda das juventudes e que o estado do Ceará apresenta aspectos ainda mais retrocedentes do que a própria política nacional em curso, uma vez que é pioneiro na implementação do Projeto de Vida no currículo do ensino médio antes mesmo do próprio NEM, aspecto que se adensa ao implementar o Projeto de vida em articulação com uma política estadual intitulada “Professor Diretor de Turma (PDT)” a qual, por sua natureza constitutiva e proposição, representa a precarização do trabalho docente.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Malaysia has implemented various financial relief measures to support those adversely affected by the crisis. These measures primarily target individuals who have experienced job loss or a reduction in wage due to the pandemic. One of the options available to individuals was the premature withdrawal from their social security account, specifically the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) account, through various programs such as i-Lestari, i-Sinar, and in 2021, i-Citra, and also “Pengeluaran Khas,” in 2022, even though such withdrawals are said to be potentially risky. Conducting a qualitative method by using an in-depth interview, this paper determines the factors associated with employees’ EPF withdrawals during the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia. Therefore, this paper identifies the factors of withdrawals and the relationship between characteristics such as financial hardship, precautionary demand for cash, uncertainty over finances, and immediate financial obligations and uses it as a guideline for building a framework to enhance the current social security system in Malaysia and manage future unforeseen crises. Based on the findings, this study proposes a range of policies based on the identified factors of early EPF withdrawals.

Learners with autism spectrum disorder in Eswatini mainstream primary schools are showing high academic failure rate. In spite of that, the learners' parents have not been adequately capacitated on matters related to mainstreaming the learners into regular schools, yet by virtue of being parents, they are pillars of their families. This qualitative, phenomenological interpretivism study sought o explore and understand challenges of parental role in enhancing academic performance of learners with autism spectrum disorder in Eswatini mainstream primary schools. Data were collected through individual interviews, focus-group interview and document analysis, whereby we used interview guides , an audio recording system and a document analysis form to extract data from fifteen purposively sampled male and female parents and teachers of the learners with autism spectrum disorder from four mainstream primary schools in Eswatini. One striking finding of this study demonstrated that a major challenge for parents was lack of effective communication due to their absence in their meetings. Hence, schools should consider using modernised modalities of holding parents' meetings, like Microsoft Teams to allow the parents to juggle their multiple roles through a robust multi-disciplinary approach for strengthening collaboration among stakeholders.
