The experience of Arab workers working in Turkey: Qualitative study
Authors: ALNAJJAR Dalya , ALSAMAN Ahmad
Published: December 2020

This paper investigates the experience of foreign workers (FWs), essentially Arabs, in the workplace in Turkey with a focus on two major aspects, the first aspect is discrimination and bias that FWs face in the workplace in terms of regulations, task assignment, and relationship with colleagues. While the second aspect is the preference of FWs to work in an entrepreneurial career and the preference of working with a non-Turkish boss. The study took a qualitative approach to reach its finding, 17 people were interviewed individually, and two focus groups took place. The interviews were coded and classified through (consider.ly) platform to find the main trends and common points of discussion. The analysis of the collected data shed the light on one of the challenges that blue-collar FWs face when they start working in Turkey which we named as “internal-discrimination”. We define “Internal discrimination” as a type of discrimination that describes the exploitative and discriminatory practices that some people engage in against people from the same country due to a lack of specific skills in an abroad workplace. We noticed that the major factors that encourage this behavior are the language barrier as many FWs lack language skills as well as the desperate need for money to sustain a living. Internal discrimination seems to affect the experience of FWs in Turkey significantly negatively. The analysis found no discrimination; however, the light was shed on a lot of dishonesty and exploitation.

A introdução e recepção da obra brasileira “A Escrava Isaura” de Bernardo Guimarães, na China, remonta ao ano 1984 com a tradução de Wang & Li. No mesmo ano, a telenovela brasileira adaptada desta obra, também foi introduzida ao público chinês, e conseguiu, rapidamente, um êxito tão grande que a protagonista Lucélia Santos até ganhou, em 1985, o galardão de Melhor Atriz do Prémio de Águia de Ouro da Televisão da China. Pelo grande sucesso desta telenovela, em 1985, várias editoras chinesas optaram por publicar séries de bandas desenhadas com base nesta telenovela. Neste trabalho, iremos abordar a introdução e recepção tanto da obra “A Escrava Isaura” como da telenovela do mesmo título; concretamente, iremos analisar as duas traduções da dita obra, os artigos publicados em chinês sob a influência da telenovela brasileira, e as bandas desenhadas baseadas na mesma telenovela.
Cooperative R&D and Technological Innovation Performance between Enterprises: An Empirical Analysis Based on the 2019 World Bank Survey of Kazakhstani Enterprises
Authors: Nurbatsin Akan
Published: December 2020

Kazakhstani companies have a long-standing problem of low technological innovation performance. With the increasing complexity of technology research and development and the continuous increase of costs and risks, cooperative research and development between enterprises has become one of the important ways of corporate innovation. This article is based on the World Bank 2019 Survey Data of Kazakhstani companies, the propensity score matching method and the generalized propensity score matching method are used to investigate the impact of inter-firm cooperative R&D decisions and the intensity of inter-firm cooperative R&D on the technological innovation performance of enterprises. The research results show that compared with not carrying out cooperative R&D between enterprises, carrying out cooperative R&D among enterprises can significantly improve the technological innovation performance of enterprises; only when the intensity of cooperative R&D between enterprises is at a relatively low level, increasing cooperative R&D between enterprises can significantly improve the technological innovation performance of enterprises, and when the intensity of cooperative R&D is too high, it will not effectively improve the technological innovation performance of enterprises.

Authors: Telagarapu Prabhakar , Rao B. Jagdishwar , Suman J. Venkata , Chiranjeevi K.
Published: December 2020

The objective of this paper is to visualize and analyze video.Videos are sequence of image frames. In this work, algorithm will be developed to analyze a frame and the same will be applied to all frames in a video. It is expected see unwanted objects in video frame, which can be removed by converting colour frames into a gray scale and implement thresh holding algorithm on an image. Threshold can be set depending on the object to be detected. Gray scale image will be converted to binary during thresh holding process. To reduce noise, to improve the robustness of the system, and to reduce the error rate in detection and tracking process, morphological image processing method for binary images is used. Morphological processing will be applied on binary image to remove small unwanted objects that are presented in a frame. A developed blob analysis technique for extracted binary image facilitates pedestrian and car detection. Processing blob’s information of relative size and location leads to distinguishing between pedestrian and car. The threshold, morphological and blobs process is applied to all frames in a video and finally original video with tagged cars will be displayed.

Published: December 2020

Due to the large amount of information produced, accumulated, and distributed via electronic means, it is necessary for forensic experts during crime investigation to increase their abilities to search for important evidence in a timely manner because this is essential to the success of digital forensic examinations. The inadequacy of resources both in tools and human and also limitation in time have a negative impact in result obtained during digital forensic investigation. Previous researchers state that the chances of success in criminal prosecution by law enforcement agencies depend heavily on the availability of strong evidence. The coming out of intelligent software agents that function autonomously with little or no human intervention during crime investigation is significant to the success of digital forensic investigation. Better use of tools is necessary, beyond the capabilities of the currently used forensic tools. In this paper, we discuss the usefulness of intelligent software agent in digital forensic. The goal of the paper is to provide a better knowledge and understand the concepts of intelligent software agent in digital forensic. The findings presents in this paper came from thoroughly review of previous digital forensic literature.
Intake Manifold Noise Prediction Due to the Combined Effects of Combustion Loads and Fluid Flow
Authors: Ramisetti Munikiran , K. Srinivasan
Published: December 2020

Reduced engine noise has contributed greatly to the comfort of today’s passenger vehicles. The trend towards lighter vehicles has led to massive increase in the use of plastic parts, especially for engine components such as intake manifolds and intake air pipes. The primary purpose of using a plastic material instead of conventional aluminum cast for intake manifold is to reduce its weight and cost. The engine power can be increased with the help of improved interior surface roughness and lowered air temperature. The increased usage of plastics for air intake manifold (AIM) production, in place of metallic materials, made the NVH optimization more complicated. In recent years, automotive engine manufacturers are increasingly focusing their attention on noise generated by plastic air intake manifolds (AIMs).
The main objective is to predict the B12D engine intake manifold noise due to the combined effects of combustion loads and fluid flow pressure at various engine speeds (2000rpm-6400rpm). The meshing of intake manifold was done in finite analysis software
HYPERMESH. The post processing was done in NASTRAN software to get the noise levels in AIM. The analytical results were validated by using experimental results.

Authors: Pal Yash , K Kalpit. , Dash P.K.
Published: December 2020

In the present study an effort is made to investigate the local regression rate, average regression rate through the effect of oxidizer injection pressure. For experimental investigation a lab scale ballistic test motor is designed and number of static test firing
are carried out at different gaseous oxidizer injection pressure. The injection pressure is varied from 150psi to 420psi and a Swirl Injector and a conventional Shower Head Injector are used for the oxidizer injection from oxidizer chamber to fuel grain port. The local regression rate is obtained from the unburnt fuel web thickness after 10.5 second of test firing. Further, the investigation of regression rate of PVC and HTPB solid fuels are depended on mass flux of oxidizer as the regression rate shown a decreasing trend from head end to nozzle end. From the present analysis, it can be summarized that for PVC solid fuel regression rate is completely dependent on swirl injection of oxidizer, as well as the oxidizer injection pressure.

Authors: NIGMATOV ХIKMATILLA , MUHAMMADIYEV ALISHER
Published: December 2020

This article is devoted to one of the most relevant and demanded topics ­ information security. One of the reasons for this is that because of the pandemic, the world’s population has switched to a digital management system through computer networks. As a result, the main part of the system of higher, secondary, and special education switched to the forms of distance learning. In this article, we tried to answer, based on scientifc research, the questions related to what standards and safeguards should be used to ensure the security of data in computer systems and networks of higher education institutions. At present, all educational institutions have their computer systems and networks, perform all the necessary calculations and organizational work, and also carry out the educational process based on computers. We focused on the issues of ensuring their security in the process of transmitting or receiving data through the switching networks available on these computers. The article analyzes the issues of information security in local networks of information systems, based on the systematization of information from the point of view of information security, information security system, and optimal data management. By analyzing how data transmitted over communication channels of computer networks are delivered with errors and delays, we get an idea of what parameters and characteristics should be used as the main criterion. It has been proved that in computer systems and networks used in higher educational institutions and research institutes, it is necessary to pay great attention to the protection of information, to widely use organizational, technical, legal, cryptographic tools to eliminate risks and attacks. As the main criterion, taking into account the technical and economic parameters of information protection, it is proposed to take into account confdentiality, the need for each information, and its value. This article is intended for those who research the feld of information security management in computer systems and networks

Authors: S. Soumya , K. Krishna Prasad , Bappalige Navin N.
Published: December 2020

Mobile Ad Hoc networks is a network in which energy is a main constraint and selection of a protocol that minimizes the energy usage is a key issue. Mobile Ad hoc network communicates with other nodes, without the help of base station and Communication is possible by forwarding a data unit consisting of control information and user data known as packets from one node to other. Furthermore, another key issue in mobile ad hoc networks is routing since the nodes are in mobility and tend to change the paths and move out of the network. The evaluation of energy efficient routing protocols can be effectively performed using NS3. Three types of routing protocols can be seen, Reactive, Proactive and Hybrid and in this paper, AODV a reactive protocol and OLSR a proactive protocol is compared and Delivery ratio of packets, Packet Loss and count of packets received are evaluated to analyze the energy efficiency of protocols based on these metrics.

Published: December 2020

Diante da necessidade crescente de se olhar o Direito sob uma ótica internacionalizada, o presente artigo de natureza básica tem como objetivo analisar se é possível encarar o controle jurisdicional de convencionalidade, como um instrumento de proteção aos Direitos da Personalidade. É cógnito que os Direitos Humanos são alvo da salvaguarda pelo controle que compatibiliza normas internas com os tratados internacionais que versam sobre esses direitos, mas há a necessidade de observar se a referida conjuntura também se estende aos direitos de natureza personalíssima, tendo em conta a relevância que tais direitos possuem e a necessidade, que deles emerge, de discussões científicas sobre o tema. Dessa forma, por meio do método de abordagem hipotético-dedutivo e mediante a utilização do método de procedimento bibliográfico e observacional, é possível compreender primeiramente que, a proteção destinada aos Direitos Humanos por intermédio do controle de convencionalidade, também pode alcançar alguns Direitos da Personalidade e em segundo lugar, qual o arcabouço argumentativo para tanto.

Analysis of Cyber Bullying on Facebook Using Text Mining
Authors: ALIYU NASIRU ISHOLA , Musbau Dogo Abdulrahaman , Ajibade Fatimah Olajumoke , Abdurauf Tosho
Published: December 2020

Cyberbullying is a type of cybercrime that involves the use of the internet and other information technology resources to deliberately insult, embarrass, harass, bully, and threaten people online. The ubiquity of internet connectivity has enabled an increase in the volume and pace of cyberbullying activities because the criminals no longer need to be physically present when committing the crime. This work aims to analyze and predict cyberbullying on Facebook using Naïve Bayes algorithm. The score accuracy, classification report, and confusion matrix are also employed to assess the performance of the classifier. The accuracy of the classifier is 0.95(95%) which means the model can predict 95 of every 100 instances correctly. Also, the result of the experimental analysis shows that Naïve Bayes is effective in classifying a word into a bully or non-bully word and can identify the category of the bully word that is being sent online.
User Errors: Reason, (Xeno)-Feminism and the Political Insufficiency of Ontology
Authors: Woodard Ben
Published: December 2020

This paper revisits elements of second wave feminism—in its psychoanalytic, radical, materialist, Marxist and deconstructionist aspects—the better to understand how it is we might define sexual difference today. The vexed question of sexuation, of what it means to be a woman in particular has today generated great tensions at the theoretical, legal and philosophical level. This paper is an attempt to return to aspects of the second wave—an unfinished project where many enduring feminist concerns were for the first time thoroughly and metaphysically articulated—the better to defend the importance of sexual difference. To this end, the transcendental and parallax dimensions of sexed life will be discussed, alongside a defence of the centrality of the mother to our thinking about the relevance and necessity of preserving the importance of sexual difference, not only for thought but also for political and legal life.

Employee Cynicism and Organizational Change
Authors: Behazad Talat
Published: December 2020

Organizational performance and its sustainability significantly depend on aligning business procedures with the fast-changing environment. Because of its significance, the study is based on the Social Exchange Theory. It has developed a new model that has five latent variables (i.e., organizational change, organizational commitment, trust, employee cynicism, and tendency to gossip and a total of fifteen direct and indirect relationships. The study has focused on SMEs in New York. The sample size for the survey was 390 calculated at a 95% percent confidence level and a 5% margin of error. The scales used in the study were adapted from earlier studies. The author has collected the data personally by visiting selected SMEs and used SmartPLS for data analysis. The results suggest that employee cynicism has a negative association with organizational change, the tendency to gossip, and trust. The organizational change also has a negative relationship with organizational commitment and trust. The tendency to gossip and trust have a negative association with organizational commitment. The results support all five single mediating relationships and two multi-mediating relationships. Based on the results, the study has concluded that the element of trust between employees and management is the most crucial aspect in SMEs of the surveyed units. Employees who have confidence and trust in management policies and procedures tend to support change management processes and have a high commitment level towards the organization.Keywords: Organizational change, commitment, trust, employee cynicism, the tendency to gossip.

Sexual violence against women has become one of the most important social security problems in India. None of the existing humanitarian mobile application exactly contains the features that a victim need in times of danger or immediately after victimized. industries and other sectors of the commercial market, it is a necessity for women to travel at late hours and visit the distant and isolated location as a work region. However the expensive part of their increase in assault and attack against women posing a threat. The Defense isn’t the only measure that can help against this increasing abuse. A security solution that creates a sense of safety among women needs to be devised. In an instance of an attack, it is largely reported that women are immobilized. There is a need for simpler safely solutions that can be activated as simply as by pressing a switch and can instantly send out alerts to the near one of the victims. “When safety and security are concerned”, a smartphone becomes a powerful tool to prevent violence against women. Keeping these in mind, apps have been developed which is dedicated to providing relief to the person in trouble.

In Today’s world, Big Data became a vital role in our way of life. Growing rapidly and logical algorithms that will handle large datasets becoming a challenging task. This paper aim is to explain the Hadoop- Map Reduce Framework with Association rule Mining. One of the famous algorithm of ARM is that the Apriori algorithm, which is implemented in MapReduce artificial language, which is executed on the Hadoop framework. These rules are tradition to observe facts that always occur along with datasets. Using association rule, an issue arises when data becomes enormous. To beat this situation they used Hadoop. This paper provides an outline of the Hadoop – MapReduce framework. Our big challenge of this paper are to resolve the matter of scalability, apart from the other problems are execution time and communication overhead. This paper will solve the matter of reliable, scalable and distributed computing.

Method for Non-Invasive Skin Artifact-Free Spatial Bone Motion Tracking Using Pressure Sensor Foils
Authors: Bufe Nikolas
Published: December 2020

This work addresses the development of a novel method for bone pose estimation that is both,non-invasive and accurate. The main principal is to palpate three prominent bone protuberancesusing pressure sensor planes attached to the skin. Bone protuberances are approximatedby three ellipsoids that are rigidly attached together. The general formulation of the constraintequations is presented and, as a solution approach, an optimization cost function is proposedallowing bone pose tracking that is insensitive toward input errors. The method is validated invivousing dual fluoroscopy yielding bone tracking precisions in the submillimeter range andbelow 1 degree, thus, reaching the same order of magnitude as state of the art model basedtracking techniques. Finally, the general approach is extended to automatically approximate therigid body bone geometry via pressure sensor palpation that allows to fully circumvent radiationexposure, making this approach universally applicable.
