Authors: Adi Vibhisana Andreas Daniel , Rifqi Nugroho Muhammad , Muhammad Rofiulhaq Fian
Published: August 2023

Pemilihan umum (Pemilu) 2024 akan segera dilakukan, meski demikian terdapat dinamika yang kuat terutama berkaitan dengan gugatan kepada Mahkamah Konstitusi (MK) untuk meninjau kembali penerapan sistem proporsional terbuka pada Pemilu 2024. Tulisan pendek ini hendak melihat sejauh mana sistem proporsional terbuka maupun sistem proporsionaltertutup akan memperkuat kualitas representasi politik dalam pemilu di Indonesia? Menggunakan pendekatan penelitian kualitatif dan menggunakan data sekunder sebagai sumber data utama. Terlepas dari perdebatan antara sistem proporsional terbuka dan tertutup, dengan kondisi bahwa masih banyak praktik politik uang, lemahnya representasi politik, serta tidak jelasnya posisi ideologi partai politik. Sistem campuran dengan menggabungkan sistem proporsional tertutup di tingkat nasional dan sistem proporsional terbuka di tingkat Provinsi dan Kabupaten/Kota dapat menjadi jawaban untuk mengatasi dua isu sekaligus, mengenai kualitas representasi politik sembari memperkuat kontrol publik.

Authors: Laili Wahyu Nur , Afandi Muhammad
Published: August 2023

Sistem informasi memungkinkan masyarakat untuk saling terhubung tanpa mengenal batas wilayah dengan waktu yang cepat dan acap kali salah dalam penggunaannya.Sebagai contoh dengan adanya pemanfaatan sistem informasi tersebut mengakibatkan data diri seseorang sangat mudah untuk dikumpulkan dan dipindahkan dari satu pihak ke pihak lain tanpa sepengetahuan subjek si pemilik data. Perlindungan data diri masuk dalam perlindungan hak asasi manusia. Pelanggaran terhadap penyalahgunaan data diri masyarakat dalam penyelenggaraan pemilu sering terjadi pada tahapan pendaftaran dan verifikasi peserta pemilu. Pada tahapan ini, data masyarakat banyak digunakan untuk mempermudah jalan calon partai politik dan bakal calon Dewan Perwakilan Daerah (DPD) agar dapat ditetapkan menjadi peserta pemilu. Banyak masyarakat yang tidak mengetahui bahwa data dirinya dicatut baik untuk memenuhi syarat keanggotaan partai politik maupun syarat dukungan minimal pemilih DPD. Kondisi seperti ini dikhawatirkan akan terus berlanjut tanpaadanya pergerakan untuk merubah pola agar setiap pihak dapat mengetahui bahayanya pencatutan data diri. Penelitian ini berfokus pada alasan munculnya pencatutan data diri dan bagaimana dengan penindakannya. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan penulis dalam mengeksplorasi permasalahan penelitian ini adalah dengan menggunakan jenis penelitian normatif dan menggunakan sumber data sekunder sertametode pendekatan perundang-undangan, pendekatan kasus, dan pendekatan konseptual.

The Effect of Super Resolution Method on Classification Performance of Satellite Images
Authors: CENGİZ Ayşe , AVCI Derya
Published: August 2023

The high resolution of the image is very important for applications. Publicly available satellite images generally have low resolutions. Since low resolution causes loss of information, the desired performance cannot be achieved depending on the type of problem studied in the field of remote sensing. In such a case, super resolution algorithms are used to render low resolution images high resolution. Super resolution algorithms are used to obtain high resolution images from low resolution images. In studies with satellite images, the use of images enhanced with super resolution is important. Since the resolution of satellite images is low, the success rate in the classification process is low. In this study, super resolution method is proposed to increase the classification performance of satellite images. The attributes of satellite images were extracted using AlexNet, ResNet50, Vgg19 from deep learning architecture. Then the extracted features were then classified into 6 classes by giving input to AlexNet-Softmax, ResNet50-Softmax, Vgg19-Softmax, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, decision trees and Naive Bayes classification algorithms. Without super resolution and with super resolution feature extraction and classification processes were performed separately. Classification results without super resolution and with super resolution were compared. Improvement in classification performance was observed using super resolution.
Political Evolution of Kashmir during the Mughal Period
Authors: Kumar Arun
Published: August 2023

The Mughal period in Kashmir's history, spanning from the late 16th to the late 17th century, signifies a transformative phase in the region's political tapestry. With its strategic significance and natural allure, Kashmir invariably drew the attention of Mughal emperors, culminating in its annexation under Emperor Akbar in 1586. This research delves into the consequential shifts in political paradigms during the Mughal reign. It underscores the sophisticated administrative frameworks introduced, exemplified by the 'Mansabdari' system, and the meticulous blend of military strategy with diplomatic outreach to ensure regional stability. Further, the paper highlights the nuanced governance approaches of successive Mughal emperors, delineating their individual contributions and challenges. As the broader Mughal Empire exhibited signs of decline, its reverberations in Kashmir's political scenario are also explored, marking the transition to ensuing power struggles. This study, thus, offers a comprehensive insight into the intricate dynamics that shaped Kashmir's political landscape during the Mughal epoch, emphasizing the empire's lasting legacies and the region's evolution in response to them.

Published: August 2023

Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar as propriedades energéticas da madeira e do carvão vegetal produzido com a biomassa do fuste e do galho de Eucalyptus urophylla aos seis anos de idade.  Para tal, foram selecionadas cinco árvores, das quais foram coletados discos da base, DAP e topo do fuste e material dos galhos. Da madeira do fuste e galho foram determinadas a densidade básica, teor de extrativos totais, lignina total e holocelulose. Para a obtenção do carvão vegetal, a madeira passou pelo processo de pirólise com temperatura final de 500°C e taxa de aquecimento de 5°C/min. Após a produção do carvão vegetal foram analisadas as propriedades energéticas por parâmetros como densidade a granel, análise química imediata (matérias voláteis, carbono fixo e cinzas), poder calorífico, densidade energética e estoque de carbono fixo. Por meio da análise dos resultados foi possível concluir que a madeira do fuste dá origem a um carvão vegetal de melhor qualidade, visto que a madeira apresentou maior teor de lignina (27,89 %), consequentemente maior o teor de carbono fixo (76,77 %), e maior poder calorífico (7488,64 kcal/kg) do carvão vegetal. Porém, por mais que o galho tenha apresentado valores médios menores para as propriedades energéticas do carvão vegetal, o mesmo ainda pode ser considerado uma biomassa com bom potencial para a produção de energia.

Authors: De Oliveira Marcello Sartore , D’Avignon Alexandre , Santos Adrielly dos Anjos
Published: August 2023

O ICMS Ecológico é uma ferramenta inovadora voltada para a preservação ambiental, uma vez que alguns governos estaduais alteraram as estruturas de repasses do ICMS, levando a um novo comportamento de seus municípios, em decorrência desses agentes econômicos atenderem a determinados critérios ambientais.  Por esse motivo, este estudo tem como objetivo analisar se o ICMS-E fluminense consiste em uma ferramenta de inovação de política pública de desenvolvimento, nas dimensões da sustentabilidade, na Comunidade Quilombola Alto da Serra do Mar, localizada no município de Rio Claro. A metodologia utilizada foi uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa, com objetivo exploratório, sendo a coleta de dados documental, bibliográfica e pesquisa de campo, através da realização de entrevista com questionário semiestruturado. Os dados analisados demonstram que os valores repassados pelo Estado ao município de Rio Claro são expressivos.  No entanto, o ICMS Ecológico do estado do Rio de Janeiro não se demonstra uma ferramenta de inovação para aquela Comunidade, pois, devido ao baixo valor de repasse de pagamento de serviço ambiental (PSA) e a não exigências de contrapartidas de preservação ambiental a esses produtores, não se vislumbram benefícios sociais a esta comunidade, bem como não se percebe melhoria da qualidade do serviço ambiental nessa região, decorrentes do ICMS Ecológico.

COMPARAÇÃO DE INSTRUMENTOS PARA RASTREIO DA FRAGILIDADE EM IDOSOS COMUNITÁRIOS
Authors: Martins Andréia Christiane Amâncio , Dos Santos Brenda Gomes , Da Costa Fernanda Marques , Carneiro Jair Almeida
Published: August 2023

Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão sistemática de estudos que verificam a comparação entre os instrumentos de avaliação da fragilidade. Métodos: Revisão sistemática realizada entre janeiro e março de 2023 em base eletrônica de dados (LILACS e MEDLINE). Para a construção das estratégias de busca foi utilizada uma adaptação do vocábulo acrônimo PICO, onde P = população (idosos comunitários), I: fenômeno de interesse (comparação da fragilidade por instrumentos diferentes) e CO = contexto (Atenção Primária à Saúde). Nas buscas foram considerados os termos “idoso” AND “fragilidade” AND “instrumentos” e “Elderly” AND “fragility” AND “instrument”, sendo que a seleção final resultou em 13 artigos.  Resultados: A comparação entre a Escala de Fragilidade de Edmonton (EFE) e o Índice de Vulnerabilidade Clínico Funcional (IVCF-20) mostrou concordância moderada e forte correlação positiva. Todavia, a prevalência de fragilidade apontada se mostrou discrepante, sendo maior quando utilizada a EFE. Ao analisar a concordância entre a Avaliação Subjetiva da Fragilidade (SFA) e o IVCF-20, os resultados indicaram fraca concordância na classificação de fragilidade entre esses instrumentos. Entretanto, foi encontrada concordância moderada quando o desfecho foi dicotomizado em “frágil” e “não frágil”. Apesar de avaliar conceitos semelhantes, a SFA e o IVCF-20 são complementares e um não pode substituir o outro. Conclusões: Embora diversos estudos abordem diferentes instrumentos de avaliação da fragilidade, ainda há uma escassez de trabalhos que investiguem a concordância entre esses instrumentos e, além disso, os resultados apresentados reforçam a necessidade de um instrumento padronizado para medir a fragilidade em idosos na Atenção Primária à Saúde.

The First Republic of Armenia was born in difficult socio-economic conditions. However, in a short time, some sectors of the economy recovered and gained new development. The Turkish campaign of 1920 dealt a new blow to economics.
The materials stored in the HMA – archives, manuscripts, records, photographs, memories of people spread in a new light on the development of some branches of economics of this period. By studying these materials, in particular the testimonies of Ado, an economist, statistician and witness of this time, we can have a complete picture of some branches of agriculture – the production of cotton, tobacco, beekeeping, sericulture, etc. It contains interesting material about cooperatives as a new industry in Armenia, where the activities of the existing network are presented.
We also consider as an important material the notes of the first Prime Minister of Armenia Hovhannes Kajaznuni in his notebook, the study of which is a new page and contains valuable information on how it was possible on that period to compare the need for grain crops and the available opportunities in a country that was just reviving.
The history of the Alexandropol Mechanical Plant, which was donated to the museum by one of its founders, Rafael Yekimyan, is interesting and inquisitive. We hope that our study will fill the gap and help discuss some sectors of the economy in a broader spectrum.

Published: August 2023

The purpose of a secure e-learning system based on cloud computing is to allow instructors and students to access their accounts at any time and from anywhere. These types of systems work to ensure that their users (instructors and students) are truly enrolled in the school or institute to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the resources and components of the system. Furthermore, the traditional authentication techniques used in the majority of educational systems suffer from several issues, such as cyber security attacks and weak management of resources. So, some students could be eager to take advantage of such a system's flaw in an effort to cheat. User authentication and end-user monitoring are more difficult in this situation. Multifactor adaptive authentication techniques are used to implement a system with simultaneous authentication. The proposed scheme system offers an effective, affordable, and human intervention-adaptive authentication and monitoring solution for e-learning environments. Additionally, our work can resist cyber security and contains some good metrics like mutual authentication, user anomalies, and others. In this paper, the proposed scheme system uses a two-factor authentication system based on Asymmetric Scalar Product Preserving Encryption (APSE) and fingerprint biometrics for managing and generating a user's account in a secure way. Our work also achieves a good balance between performance and security complexity compared to the state-of-the-art. So, we achieve good results for 1.69 ms for computation and 1280 bits for communication.
Improving the Performance of Searchable Symmetric Encryption by Optimizing Locality
Authors: Alyousif Aya A. , Yassin Ali A. , Abduljabbar Zaid A. , Xu Ke
Published: August 2023

Both individuals and organizations prioritize data security and privacy, leading to an increasing focus on technological solutions that emphasize these aspects. Searchable symmetric encryption stands out as a prominent choice for secure storage and search of encrypted data on cloud servers, contributing to this objective. While searchable symmetric encryption offers numerous benefits, it also faces certain challenges, particularly when dealing with large databases. One significant challenge is poor performance, often attributed to poor locality. Visiting multiple locations can significantly increase the time required for data retrieval. Additionally, optimization methods aimed at improving locality can sometimes impact read efficiency or result in excessive storage of the encrypted index on the cloud server. In this paper, we present a scheme that effectively addresses these issues. We have enhanced the encrypted inverted index storage mechanism to improve information retrieval performance. Our scheme achieves optimal locality O(1) and optimal read efficiency in O(1), resulting in a significant increase in retrieval speed. Through experimentation with real-world data, we have demonstrated the practicality, accuracy, and security of our scheme.

Pendidikan karakter dalam pembelajaran IPS memiliki peran yang penting dalam membentuk sikap dan perilaku positif siswa. Mata pelajaran IPS, yang melibatkan kehidupan sosial, ekonomi, dan politik, memberikan kesempatan bagi siswa untuk mempelajari dan menerapkan nilai-nilai seperti kejujuran, tanggung jawab, kerja sama, toleransi, dan kepedulian sosial. Dalam pembelajaran IPS, nilai-nilai pendidikan karakter dapat ditanamkan melalui berbagai metode dan strategi pembelajaran yang interaktif, seperti diskusi kelompok, studi kasus, atau penggunaan media dan teknologi yang relevan. Pembelajaran IPS juga membantu siswa memahami keterkaitan antara nilai-nilai pendidikan karakter dengan konteks sosial dan kehidupan nyata, di mana mereka dapat belajar tentang penerapan nilai-nilai seperti keadilan, demokrasi, dan hak asasi manusia dalam masyarakat, negara, dan hubungan internasional. Oleh karena itu, pembelajaran IPS memiliki peran penting dalam membantu siswa mengembangkan pemikiran kritis dan analitis. Namun, kolaborasi antara guru, siswa, orang tua, dan lingkungan sekolah juga diperlukan untuk menciptakan lingkungan pembelajaran yang mendukung pembentukan karakter siswa.

Der Andere in der Übertragung
Authors: Weiss Heinz
Published: August 2023

Die Übertragung genießt in der Psychoanalyse ein beinahe 'mytisches Prestige'. Dabei sind es nach Lacan noch jedesmal die 'antreibenden technischen Divergenzen' gewesen, die eine wirkliche Kritik des Übertragungsbegriffs verhindert haben. Diesen Mangel versucht die vorliegende Untersuchung auszugleichen, indem sie nach dem intersubjektiven Bedeutungsgehalt der Übertragung fragt. Es ist das Anliegen des Buches, den Phänomenbestand 'Sprache', 'Wunsch' und 'Intersubjektivität' in einen übergreifenden Interpretationszusammenhang zu stellen, der theoretischen Ansprüchen ebenso genügt wie er den besonderen Bedingungen der analytischen Gesprächssituation Rechnung trägt.

Published: August 2023

Context:: Fungal infections are very common, and several medications are used to treat them. Azoles are prescribed widely to treat fungal infections. In addition to therapeutic effects, any drug can be accompanied by side effects in patients. One of the most important complications in this regard is liver injury. Therefore, hepatotoxicity induced by azole antifungal drugs were reviewed in this study. Evidence Acquisition:: English scientific papers were evaluated to review the effects of hepatotoxicity by azole antifungal agents, and the related studies' results were summarized using a table. The systematic search was implemented on electronic databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. Original articles and review articles that were published before April 1, 2022, were included in the study. Those articles without available full text or non-English articles were excluded. Also, articles that reported pediatric data were excluded. Results:: Most studies have reported the effects of hepatotoxicity by azole antifungal agents, and their mechanisms have been described. Conclusions:: Clinical evaluations regarding the hepatotoxicity of antifungal agents provided in the literature were reviewed. Therefore, it is recommended to prescribe these drugs with caution in high-risk patients suffering from liver diseases, and patients should be monitored for hepatotoxicity. However, more research is needed to evaluate the hepatotoxicity of azole antifungal agents and select appropriate drugs according to cost-effectiveness and the side effects' profiles, relying on lower incidence of this liver complication.
Ukrainian Parents' Engagement with Czech Public Schools: Challenges and Roles for Parents
Authors: Dombinskaya Natalia
Published: August 2023

Even though school-based parental involvement has been linked to academic and behavioral benefits for children, little is known about the links between parental involvement for Ukrainian refugee families and contextual factors such as Czech language fluency, teaching styles, and student assessment. Identifying the barriers and limitations to cooperation between the home and the school might contribute to helping refugee children adjust to their new life in the host country. The article presents the results of a study with an exploratory qualitative approach using interviews and an interpretative phenomenological analysis for data interpretation. The study was designed to explore the multiple barriers that refugee families face when engaging with their children’s Czech public schools. The results revealed that Ukrainian parents encountered a number of challenges and that a welcoming school environment was crucial for involving them in their child’s school.
Leadership with care – Constructing responsibility as ‘shared caring’ in a complex public service
Authors: Hasu Mervi , Lehtonen Mikko
Published: August 2023

The article investigates the pattern of influence enacted by shop-floor service workers and line managers in a public sector organisation which have been affected by New Public Management changes. Applying the concepts of care (caring) and trust, we expand the concept of the relational influence pattern originating from leadership theory. We supplement our analysis with the sensitive methodology of studying activities in shop-floor work, namely experiences of transitions on the micro-level among a group of employees, managers and clients. The results show that the caring observed in the group is shared among the individuals, it supports their collective responsibility, and exhibits trust relationships that have been created through shared experiences. Qualitative evidence illustrates that shared caring can be a pattern of relational, embodied leadership influence, directed to nurture, improve or help the situation of others in the work community. The pattern had evolved naturally through shared and expected, foreseeable experiences. We suggest the notion of leadership with care to describe this type of relational leadership influence.
Managing the gap between policy and practice through Intermediaries for Quality Improvement
Authors: Neubeck Truls , Elg Mattias , Schneider Thomas
Published: August 2023

A gap exists between policymaking for quality improvement and the realization of these policies in practice. Using previous research on intermediaries, a conceptual model of an Intermediary for Quality Improvement (IQI) is developed. The model highlights the characteristics of structural positions, mediating approaches, and duration as a way to describe an IQI. The conceptual model is used to examine two cases in which Famna, the Swedish Association for Non-profit Health and Social Service Providers, has supported both policymaking and the implementation of policies at a provider level. The cases are the national strategy for quality improvement by open comparisons in health care and social services and a new regulation on quality management systems in health care and social services. Using the concept of an IQI deepens the understanding of how top-down and bottom-up perspectives may be managed to realize good quality of services.
