A Discrimination Index Based on Jain's Fairness Index to Differentiate Researchers with Identical H-index Values
Authors: Rochim Adian Fatchur , Muis Abdul , Sari Riri Fitri 
Published: July 2020

Abstract

Purpose
This paper proposes a discrimination index method based on the Jain's fairness index to distinguish researchers with the same H-index.

Design/methodology/approach
A validity test is used to measure the correlation of D-offset with the parameters, i.e. H-index, the number of cited papers, the total number of citations, the number of indexed papers, and the number of uncited papers. The correlation test is based on the Saphiro-Wilk method and Pearson's product-moment correlation.

Findings
The result from the discrimination index calculation is a two-digit decimal value called the discrimination-offset (D-offset), with a range of D-offset from 0.00 to 0.99. The result of the correlation value between the D-offset and the number of uncited papers is 0.35, D-offset with the number of indexed papers is 0.24, and the number of cited papers is 0.27. The test provides the result that it is very unlikely that there exists no relationship between the parameters.

Practical implications
For this reason, D-offset is proposed as an additional parameter for H-index to differentiate researchers with the same H-index. The H-index for researchers can be written with the format of “H-index: D-offset”.

Originality/value
D-offset is worthy to be considered as a complement value to add the H-index value. If the D-offset is added in the H-index value, the H-index will have more discrimination power to differentiate the rank of the researchers who have the same H-index.
Wrongful Omission as a Condition for Tort Liabilities
Authors: Buletsa Sibilla , Hrinko Svitlana , Hrinko Ruslan , Anikina Halyna 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
As omission of a person is a certain manifestation of his/her internal will from outside. Exactly through inactivity, the internal will of a person materializes due to which a person becomes a participant of public relations. At the same time in the absence of external expression of will inactivity of a person can not cause the occurrence of legal consequences, in particular, to be examined as a reason of origin of tort liabilities. If a person enacted because of negligence or poor awareness, it should be defined: whether a person knew or had to know about the necessity to perform a certain action. Accordingly, if a person possessed such knowledge this form of behavior will be treated as guilty omission, if not – this is an example of innocent omission. Responsibility for illegal omission can arise only when appropriate persons are included in the system of civil and legal relationships, thus are the subjects of civil relations. Damage caused by “reflexive movements” testifies the carelessness of a person to his/her behavior, which reflects his/her will. Therefore, such behavior of a person is considered to be wrongful.

Abstract
Designing proper frontend electronics is critical in the development of highly sophisticated electrode systems. Multielectrode arrays for measuring electrical signals or impedance require multichannel readout systems. Even more challenging is the differential or ratiometric configuration with simultaneous assessment of measurement and reference channels. In this work, an eight-channel frontend was developed for contacting a 2×8 electrode array (8 measurement and 8 reference electrodes) with a large common electrode to the impedance gain-phase analyzer Solartron 1260 (S-1260). Using the three independent and truly parallel monitor channels of the S-1260, impedance of trapped cells and reference material was measured at the same time, thereby considerably increasing the performance of the device. The frontend electronics buffers the generator output and applies a potentiostatic signal to the common electrode of the chip. The applied voltage is monitored using the current monitor of the S-1260 via voltage/current conversion. The frontend monitors the current through the electrodes and converts it to a voltage fed into the voltage monitors of the S-1260. For assessment of the 8 electrode pairs featured by the chip, a relay-based multiplexer was implemented. Extensive characterization and calibration of the frontend were carried out in a frequency range between 100 Hz and 1 MHz. Investigating the influence of the multiplexer and the frontend electronics, direct measurement with and without frontend was compared. Although differences were evident, they have been negligible below one per cent. The significance of measurement using the complex S-1260-frontend-electrode was tested using Kohlrausch's law. The impedance of an electrolytic dilution series was measured and compared to the theoretical values. The coincidence of measured values and theoretical prediction serves as an indicator for electrode sensitivity to cell behavior. Monitoring of cell behavior on the microelectrode surface will be shown as an example.
Education policy and the socio-spatiality of school reform – learning support spaces as perceived by students in the context of the new middle school policy in Austria
Authors: Knapp Mariella , Kilian Michaela , Katschnig Tamara 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Education policies are socio-spatially sensitive and, depending on the local situation, can be interpreted and understood differently. The concept of perceived learning support spaces (e.g. student cooperation, student-teacher relationships) refers to an understanding that students’ school experiences are situated within the school. Using the example of the introduction of a new type of school, the new middle school (NMS), in Austria, and based on the longitudinal data of a national evaluation project (NOESIS), this article aims to clarify the extent to which, and how, student learning support spaces are perceived as local social conditions inside and outside school, and how this can explain changes in students’ educational aspirations, which was the objective of the NMS reform. In this sense, the reform policy of introducing the new middle school is examined from the perspective of the students themselves. The results from the panel analyses demonstrate that the perceived learning support spaces are highly relevant in explaining students’ aspirations.
Mobility and belonging – A case from provincial Denmark
Authors: Gulløv John , Gulløv Eva 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Young people in rural areas are gradually convinced that they have to leave their homes for education. They move, and hereby amplify the problem of local economic and demographic decline. The article explores the role of education as well as the social dynamics behind this process in a minor community in Denmark. Drawing on children and young people’s perspectives, the article examines how children gradually come to doubt on the local opportunities and become alienated to local lifeforms. Based on an anthropological fieldwork, the authors show how day-care institutions, schools and youth education play an important role in this process.
A social justice approach to rural school staffing: The need for a politics of distribution and recognition to solve a perennial problem
Authors: Cuervo Hernán 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
The last Australian government review on rural education reveals that staffing schools continues to be a challenge. To examine this problem, the paper draws on data from semi-structured interviews with pre-service teachers undertaking rural school placement. The aim is to address rural school staffing through a bi-dimensional social justice approach by drawing on a politics of distribution and recognition. While distributive justice has always been at the centre of the problem, it is argued that a solution might also encompass a politics of recognition that puts “place” as a significant category to understand the complexities of rural staffing.

Mobile Security Threats: A Survey on Protection and Mitigation Strategies
Authors: Mitrea Teodor , Borda Monica 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
The spectacular growth in the use of mobile devices is a natural consequence of the benefits they offer. However, most mobile users grant little importance to the security of information stored, processed and transmitted. Even more, the last two years can be considered years of reference for the mobile security industry - ranging from virulent mobile ransomware attacks to mobile IoT botnets and mobile security breaches through mobile malware, that have redefined security paradigms. It is clear that we are at a point of inflection and transition to another generation of cyber attacks and the tendency is that attacks on mobile devices will expand. The security of mobile devices is a topical issue and the main objective is to educate the user to know the risks to which he/she is exposed to and to offer him/her viable security solutions in order to protect himself/herself against mobile threats. In this article we are going to present some protection and mitigation strategies with recommendations for improvement.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
The article is presenting actual state of the art UGVs capabilities and employment in support of naval operations. The paper provides a demanding inquiry of the Black Sea environment and, in this regard, the ways to employ UGVs in support of naval operations conducted in this basin, especially in the grey waters area. As UGVs can be employed alone, as soldiers companion or multiple vehicles, the paper underlines strong points and shortfalls regarding human-vehicle interaction, ”cooperation” between multiple vehicles, and the possibility and opportunity to employ such platforms in conjunction with other manned or unmanned platforms. In the concluding section, the paper gives some directions of research necessary to improve the ability of this vehicle to support naval operations.
EPC 4.0: The quest for reducing CAPEX in EPC projects
Authors: Wagner Reinhard F. 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) business in Europa is increasingly under pressure. Lack of productivity, low or negative profit margins for investors, and the lack of adopting necessary innovations and digitalization—from engineering activities through operations and maintenance to decommissioning—have caused significant deprivation of business and competitiveness compared to emerging providers in Asia. The quest for reducing capital expenditures (CAPEX) in EPC projects is intensifying. In May 2018, a research project was started to analyze the situation and key trends through desk research, to research how the challenges of the business could be tackled and to derive practical guidance for EPC contractors as well as for investors, owners, and operators (O/O). The project aimed to propose innovative ways of improving the EPC business model to reach the next level (“EPC 4.0”). In doing so, lessons learned from the automotive and aviation industry were considered. A key objective of the research project was to challenge statements of international EPC experts to cut CAPEX by 40–50% in EPC projects. With this statement in mind, the research focused on identifying measures with potential in six areas: (1) digitalization, (2) partnering, (3) flat supply chains, (4) flexible organizations, (5) core competences, and (6) the human factor. Summarizing the findings in these areas, the EPC 4.0 project came to a savings potential of up to 50% of the total budgeted project costs.
Study on particle movement characteristics in sandblast cylinder based on PIV technology
Authors: Hui Zhiquan , Wu Feng , Duan Haojie , Yang Bo , Lin Jinmei , Wang Lian , Huang Si 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
PIV technology was used to investigate the influence of the particles’ relevant parameters on the instantaneous movement characteristics in the sandblast cylinder under the circumstance of different particle sizes, different section heights and different stacking conditions. As the diameter increased, particles had a greater velocity and energy when approaching the wall, which would cause a serious abrasion. The influence of test selection factors on the particles’ radial velocity of particles was greater than that on axial velocity. The radial velocity and axial velocity on the surface of the cylindrical section were all reduced to a lower level when the particles approach the tank wall. When r > 0.3 R, the particle velocity maintained at a higher level, but then decreased slowly when r > 0.7 R. Therefore, the abrasion of the conical section of the sandblast cylinder when r > 0.3 R should be paid more attention to.

Unholy Alliances? A Case Study of Cooperation between Churches and the Radical Right Group Młodzież Wszechpolska in Poland
Authors: Tronina Dominika 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
Much has been written about the increasing influence of the Catholic Church in post-socialist Poland and its role in shaping the Polish national identity. As a result, the ways in which many Polish radical right groups have built their ideologies on Catholicism has also been studied. However, despite evidence of personal contact between clergymen and radical right figures over the past few decades, little is known about the intensity of these relationships and the advantages that right-wing groups might obtain from association with churches. This study aims to contribute to filling this knowledge gap by examining the relationship between churches and clergymen with the radical right in Poland by performing a case study of the group Młodzież Wszechpolska (MW, All-Polish Youth). By drawing on Social movement theory and borrowing from methods such as social network and protest event analysis, the paper uses joint events as an indicator of links and analyzes Facebook announcements posted by MW. The detected events (N = 170) primarily centered around cultural or historical issues and indicated that MW benefited from material resources and personal relationships facilitated by churches. Collaboration manifested not only as religious action but also in the involvement of clergymen as discussion participants at public events and churches as venues where MW could hold meetings. Therefore, churches can be used as a base for spreading ideology and approaching potential supporters. In addition, the presence of ecclesiastical actors can function as a legitimizing factor for increasing acceptance of MW and, ultimately, deradicalizing the group’s image.

Published: July 2020

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive degenerative eye disease. Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is the advanced form of AMD characterised by abnormal growth of newly formed blood vessels in chorioidea which typically involves fluid accumulation in the retina or retinal haemorrhage, retinal epithelial detachments, hard exudate or subretinal scars. The process of angiogenesis is controlled by ocular angiogenic factors, which have enabled the development of different treatment options aimed at these factors. This review aims to compile the available information about the most commonly identified ocular angiogenic factors, uncovering their role in the pathogenesis of nAMD and assessing their application possibilities as biomarkers of disease identification and treatment.
Quantization for a Mixture of Uniform Distributions Associated with Probability Vectors
Authors: Roychowdhury Mrinal Kanti , Salinas Wasiela 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
The basic goal of quantization for probability distribution is to reduce the number of values, which is typically uncountable, describing a probability distribution to some finite set and thus approximation of a continuous probability distribution by a discrete distribution. Mixtures of probability distributions, also known as mixed distributions, are an exciting new area for optimal quantization. In this paper, we investigate the optimal quantization for three different mixed distributions generated by uniform distributions associated with probability vectors.
Menghidupkan Kembali Sukma Bhinneka Tunggal Ika dan Pancasila
Authors: Adrian Adrian 
Published: July 2020

Perbedaan acapkali menjadi penyebab terjadinya konflik dan disintegrasi (perpecahan) dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat dan bernegara. Tak sedikit orang yang anti dan benci dengan perbedaan. Perbedaan seolah dipandang sebagai musuh yang harus diperangi secara bersama. Namun, tidakah disadari bahwa negara Indonesia merupakan negara yang terbentuk dari keberagaman suku, budaya, dan agama, yang jauh lebih dulu ada ketimbang kata “Indonesia” itu sendiri. Selain itu, keberagaman merupakan kehendak yang telah Tuhan ciptakan untuk kehidupan manusia, yang dengannya menjadikan kehidupan manusia berwarna serta memperkaya pengetahuan manusia. Maraknya praktek intoleransi yang terjadi telah menodai semboyan Bhinneka Tunggal Ika dan Pancasila. Selain itu, praktek intoleransi juga telah menodai citra Indonesia di kancah internasional. Indonesia merupakan negara yang dikenal rukun atas keberagaman dan menjunjung tinggi nilai-nilai toleransi, sehingga menjadi inspirasi bagi banyak negara di dunia. Wakil Presiden Amerika Serikat Michael Richard Pence menyampaikan bahwa Indonesia itu insiprasi dunia, karena ada kerukunan beragama di tengah keberagaman. Oleh karena itu, menyeragamkan atau menyelaraskan keberagaman, merupakan tindakan yang bertentangan dengan norma-norma yang ada, serta merupakan bentuk perlawanan terhadap kehendak Tuhan.
Novas faces do cristofascismo no Governo de Jair Bolsonaro

Published: July 2020

O presente artigo estuda o cristofascismo, termo usado para designar movimentos mundiais onde a tendência ao totalitarismo neoliberal politicamente e conservador nos costumes torna-se cada vez mais acentuada. Tomando como referencial a obra As origens do totalitarismo, de Hannah Arendt, identificamos o messianismo na construção de um imaginário popular religioso que coloca expectativas no advento de um governo “cristão” que inaugura uma era de justiça na sociedade. Analisamos o cristofascismo na auto-identificação de um líder com esses ideais, e que surge no contexto brasileiro com a eleição de Jair Messias Bolsonaro como presidente da República. Sustentamos a hipótese de que o messias esperado atua politicamente amparado pela religião. A associação foi feita a partir da frase do ministro Ernesto Araújo, que compara Bolsonaro a Jesus: a pedra rejeitada pelos construtores e que se tornou a principal. Abstract: This paper studies Christofascism as a term used to designate world movements where the tendency towards totalitarian neoliberalism and conservatism is becoming increasingly pronounced. Taking Hannah Arendt’s The Origins of Totalitarianism as a reference, we identify Messianism in the construction of a popular religious imaginary that places expectations on the advent of a “Christian” government that will inaugurate an era of justice in society. We analyze Christofascism in the self-identification of a leader with these ideals, and wich arises in the Brazilian context from the election of Jair Messias Bolsonaro as President of the Republic. We support the hypothesis that the expected messiah acts politically supported by religion.The association was made from the words of Minister Ernesto Araújo, who compares Bolsonaro to Jesus: the stone rejected by the builders and that became the main one.Keywords: Cornerstone; Christofascism; Messianism; Jair Bolsonaro; Totalitarianism.
