La implementación de controles para la eliminación de peligros y la reducción de riesgos ergonómicos es un aspecto crucial en la gestión de la seguridad y salud ocupacional. En la granja Mishilí realizaron evaluaciones de riesgos ergonómicos en las actividades que ejecutan los estudiantes y docentes de la carrera de producción agrícola, centrados en la producción de cacao. El objetivo principal es reducir los riesgos laborales y mejorar las condiciones de trabajo mediante la implementación de controles ergonómicos, mejorando la salud y el bienestar de los estudiantes. Los peligros identificados incluyeron movimientos repetitivos durante la cosecha y poda de mantenimiento, así como el levantamiento y manipulación de cargas debido a la transportación a más de 70 metros sin equipo adecuado. Los resultados revelaron la presencia de riesgos no tolerables que requieren intervención inmediata y mostraron que los estudiantes desconocen las pautas para evitar enfermedades musculoesqueléticas. Por ello, se implementaron tijeras de podar con extensión y carretillas manuales, además de capacitar a los estudiantes sobre los riesgos en la manipulación de cargas. Como consecuencia de la implementación de estas estrategias, la incidencia de los riesgos laborales en la Granja Mishilí ha disminuido, lo cual ha contribuido a mejorar tanto la salud y seguridad de los estudiantes como la eficiencia operativa en el entorno laboral.

Authors: Mpofu Queen , Favourate Sebele-Mpofu
Published: August 2024

The purpose of the study is to provide a comparative review of the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in accounting education by the South African and Zimbabwean higher learning institutions. This was prompted by the fact that the extent to which AI has been integrated into education is not known with certainty. The study adopted a systematic literature review approach to systematically search and identify studies, extract, analyse and synthesise information guided by some pre-established guidelines (these could be design, year of publication or findings) or research protocol. To establish valid and reliable results, authors adopted seven steps recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration to conduct a systematic review. The paper findings revealed that the incorporation of AI in accounting education is at infancy phase. Both countries are currently developing an ethical AI framework aligned with their national policy strategies. This implies that the policy on incorporating AI in accounting education is still in motion. In addition, other issues that have hampered the incorporation of AI include the unavailability of digital infrastructure, the digital divide and the lack of educators' and students' education and training on AI technology. This paper recommends collaboration between academic institutions and industry and research institutions to integrate AI education into the curriculum and implement training and development programs to enhance educators' AI literacy.

In this study, the effect of nitrogen fertilization and seeding density on the Area Under Disease Progress Curve (AUDPC) of rice blast disease was evaluated in irrigated areas with varying levels of organic matter. The experiment was conducted in two regions of Tocantins, Brazil (2022-2023), using a randomized block design (RBD) in a factorial arrangement of 5 nitrogen doses (DN) (Urea 45%, applied topically at rates of 0 (control), 19, 59, 100, 150 kg N ha-1) × 4 seed densities (DS) (50, 75, 100, 125 kg ha-1) × 2 cultivars (BRS A704 and BRS A706 CL), with 4 replications. Additionally, 230 kg ha-1 of 05-25-15 NPK fertilizer was applied at seeding. In the field, disease progress on leaves and panicles was monitored, while in the laboratory, panicle count and rice yield were recorded. The AUDPC results from the experimental areas revealed that in Formoso do Araguaia (FMA), nitrogen doses above 100 kg N ha-1 and in Lagoa da Confusão (LdaC), starting from 59 kg N ha-1, along with seed densities above 75 kg ha-1, significantly influenced the progression of rice blast disease. It is concluded that nitrogen excess, coupled with local climatic conditions, played a crucial role in disease intensity in rice.

Published: August 2024

Artikel ini menyajikan tinjauan sistematis mengenai dua paradigma utama dalam Machine Learning yaitu Supervised Learning dan Unsupervised Learning, dengan tujuan memberikan pemahaman mendalam tentang perbedaan, serta kelebihan dan kekurangan masing-masing metode. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode Literature Review (SLR) berdasarkan pedoman PRISMA untuk menganalisis studi-studi relevan yang dipublikasikan dalam lima tahun terakhir. Dari total 540 artikel yang diperoleh, 10 artikel dipilih untuk ditelaah lebih lanjut, terdiri dari lima mengenai Supervised Learning dan lima mengenai Unsupervised Learning. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa Supervised Learning menggunakan data berlabel Systematic untuk prediksi dan klasifikasi dengan algoritma seperti K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree, dan Support Vector Machine (SVM), yang umumnya menghasilkan akurasi tinggi. Di sisi lain, Unsupervised Learning yang tidak membutuhkan data berlabel, fokus pada eksplorasi data dan pengelompokan menggunakan algoritma seperti K-Means, Artificial Neural Network (ANN), dan Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM), menawarkan fleksibilitas yang lebih besar meski dengan akurasi yang biasanya lebih rendah. Kedua pendekatan ini memiliki kelebihan dan keterbatasan masing-masing, dan pemilihan metode yang tepat harus mempertimbangkan tujuan aplikasi, ketersediaan data, dan karakteristik data.
Managing Copyright Infringement Risks in Generative Artificial Intelligence Data Mining
Authors: Li Jing
Published: August 2024

In the era of artificial intelligence, the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence represented by ChatGPT brings great convenience to human creation, but also causes many potential copyright risks and brings a series of new challenges to the field of intellectual property. The creative process of generative artificial intelligence mainly includes four stages: training data input, data learning, input instruction and content generation. Among them, the legal use of copyright works in the data input stage needs to be solved instantly. In order to solve this problem, we should first improve the “fair use system” under current Copyright Law, divide machine learning into expressive and non-expressive types according to whether generative artificial intelligence has expressive content output, and discuss whether it constitutes fair use separately. Secondly, in order to protect the legitimate rights of original copyright owners, it is also necessary to improve the transparency of training data and increase the “opt-out” mechanism. In addition, it is also necessary to clarify the tort liability subject of generative artificial intelligence by legislation when it does not constitute fair use.

A CASE FOR ENHANCING THE FRANCO-AUSTRALIAN ALLIANCE IN THE INDO-PACIFIC
Authors: McCann Edward
Published: August 2024

In a contested Indo-Pacific region with a rising andassertive Chinamilitarily and economically, Australia must look beyond the USas the sole guarantor of its security. Australia realises the importance of maintaining the US–Australiaalliance, but it must also seek other like-minded nations to ensure peace and prosperity in the region. The potential development of an enhanced Franco-Australian partnershipin the Indo-Pacific presents a promising alliance against the backdrop of heightened US-China rivalry, concerns over maritime security, challenges to sovereignty and economic prosperity. Australia, as a small to medium nation in the South Pacific, must develop and expand its geostrategic partnerships. As Australia seeks to grow, expand or reinforce existing partnerships within a contested and competitive environment, the potential benefits of an enhanced Franco-Australian alliance in the Indo-Pacific are significant andworthy of carefulconsideration.
THE ENIGMA OF PAKISTAN'S NUCLEAR DETERRENCE: AN ALTERNATE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Aizad Amin Aezaz
Published: August 2024

Pakistan has developed its nuclear and missile programmes primarily in response to perceived threats from India. Pakistani officials claim that these capabilities are for self-defence, aiming to deter India from initiating a war. However, Indian military strategists have consistently explored options to overcome these deterrent measures. Applying the theoretical models of the “Concept of Deterrence”, “Agreed Battles”, and “Iterated Game Theory”, existing gaps in Pakistan's understanding and projection of deterrence against India,coupled with its displayed behaviour, have been analysed. It has been found that the current pattern is bolstering confidence in the Indian leadership that the application of military instrumentsagainst Pakistan is possible and will achieve political goals. The key to addressing this issue lies in Pakistan,recognisingthat deterrence is ongoing. Effectively managing nuclear deterrence involves a strategic interplay of intent, capability, and communication, with a crucial emphasis oncontinual adaptation to maintain effectiveness.
TAIWAN DILEMMA: A FLASHPOINT FOR THE GLOBAL PEACE
Authors: Khan Aamir Hussain
Published: August 2024

With its multilayered complexities, Taiwan is not just a contentious issue but a potential flashpoint for war between China and the United States(US). Since 1949, Taiwan’s politics has oscillated between its unique status of UNSC’s permanent membership and veto power to its present status of de facto sovereignty. Despite losing its UN membership in 1971, Taiwan maintains a de facto sovereign status, which can lead to conflict at any moment. China,the US, and Taiwan maintain conflicting views over the future status and resolution of the Taiwan issue. Taiwanese prefer independent and separate identity. China demands Taiwan’s reunification with the mainland. The US pursues an unclear policy of whether,in case of aggression from Chinaon Taiwan, the US would defend Taiwan or not. While there has been relative peace, China’s rapid rise, Taiwan’s preference against unification, declining US deterrence, and ongoing Sino-US major power rivalry increasethe likelihood of forceful unification. The US policy of “Strategic Ambiguity”—an acknowledgementof the One-China policy and commitment to Taiwan’s defence—further exacerbates the risk of war over Taiwan.
PAKISTAN-RUSSIA EMERGING COOPERATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES
Authors: Ali Usman , Javed Tauseef
Published: August 2024

Bilateral relations between states have always been dynamic and can go in either direction. For much of history, Pakistan and Russia have remained in a contained relationship, particularly during the Cold War. However, post 9/11, due to changes in Pakistan's pro-Taliban policy, gradual ground for re-engagement has risen into prominence between Russia and Pakistan. But, because of the troubling history, both sides remained distant. However, for the past ten years, due to the change in the international order, both countries found each other in the convergence of bilateral relations. The research paper intended to employ the commercial liberalism branch of neoliberal institutionalism to evaluate emerging bilateral tiesbetween Russia and Pakistan. Based on Immanuel Kant’s principle of universal hospitality, commercial liberalism sheds light on the importance of economic interdependence and free trade in sustaining peace. The impending challenges and compelling opportunities were discussed in this paper. The nature of bilateral relations sprouted from opportunities and challenges and was categorised into complementary and non-complementary bifurcation. Based onthis division, the research has argued that the trajectory of emergent bilateral relations has ample space to grow and head upward. The studysuggests that institutional mechanisms such as JMCC, JMC, and JWGs, with their potential to navigate challenges, offer reassurance in the face of potential obstaclesin bilateral relations.

Published: August 2024

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) form part of the industrial growth strategies of the respective countries to stimulate economic growth and community development. China has emerged as the most prosperouscountry in developing SEZs for long-termeconomic and social transformations of its people. Bangladesh, treading its path, achieved long-termforeign direct investments and developed its SEZs. Indian development of SEZs facedproblems but contributed to attracting FDIs and triggeringexports. SEZs Act 2016 in Pakistan laid the outlines for developing and regulatingSEZs in Pakistan1. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) with integrated SEZs can be a potential economic growth stimulus. Critical Success Factors (CSF) like bold policy initiatives, customiseddesigns, correct location with proficient and effective management, and institutional protocols through internal connectivity and integration can be the recipe for the success of SEZs in Pakistan2
POST 2021 CHANGING STRATEGIC DYNAMICS IN AFGHANISTAN: IMPLICATIONS FOR PAKISTAN

Published: August 2024

The US withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 changed Afghanistan's strategic dynamics. The Afghan Taliban now controlthe wholeAfghanistan and have taken some adverse measures that affect not only Pakistan but also regional and global security. After 2021, Transnational terrorist groups like Al-Qaeda, Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan(IMU), Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan(TTP), Islamic State Khorasan Province(ISKP), Baloch Liberation Army(BLA) and East Turkestan Islamic Movement operate in Afghanistan with greater impunity and freedom. The Afghan Taliban also welcomed India to Afghanistan after 2021 to get financial assistanceand support in reconstruction and development. But India’s renewed hybrid warfare from Afghanistan has seriously jeopardisedthe internal security of Pakistan. Pakistan-focused groups like TTP, BLA, and ISKP suddenly got reorganised under the umbrella of India in Afghanistan. They started a vicious cycle of violence against the civil and military installationsof Pakistan in Balochistan and the ex-FATA region, besides attacks on the Chinese citizens to disrupt CPEC and slow down FDI to Pakistan. This articleanalysesthe whole debate under the regional security complex theory, which evaluates that simple physical adjacency generatesmore security interaction among neighboursthan among states located in different areas. Adjacency is potent for security because many threats travel more easily over short distances than long ones. The RSCT aptly applies to Afghanistan’s changing strategic dynamics and regional implications, focusingon Pakistan

The cultivation of plants through hydroponics represents a novel innovation in the field of agriculture, especially in limited land areas. Hydroponics has the potential to yield agricultural products that are highly profitable. Additionally, each hydroponically grown product possesses specific competitive advantages that are assumed to enhance marketing performance. This research aims to explore the influence of product innovation and competitive advantages on marketing performance within hydroponic farming groups. The research methodology involves quantitative descriptive analysis, utilizing both t-tests and simultaneous F-tests to determine the impact of each variable and whether both variables collectively affect marketing performance. The variables examined include product innovation (X1) and competitive advantage (X2) as independent variables, and marketing performance (Y) as the dependent variable. The research findings demonstrate that both product innovation and competitive advantage individually have a significant impact on enhancing the marketing performance of hydroponic products. Moreover, both product innovation and competitive advantage, when considered simultaneously, significantly contribute to the improvement of marketing performance for hydroponically produced goods. This study underscores the importance of innovative hydroponic products possessing competitive advantages over other agricultural products. Such attributes are crucial for boosting marketing performance and indirectly creating consumer appeal for hydroponic products.
