THE SOCIAL AND ETHICAL VALUES IN THE SELECT NOVELS OF SUDHA MURTHY
Authors: Saleh Alyahya Rimah 
Published: October 2019

Purpose/Objective of the Study: Sudha Murthy through her novels empowers women and motivates them to be courageous in adverse situations. The main purpose of this piece of research is to study the struggle faced by the women protagonists in the Select novels of Sudha Murthy titled ‘Gently Falls the Bakula’ ‘House of Cards’ and ‘Mahaswetha’ and how they rise above their mundane existence in search of a meaningful life and start a new life to fulfill their aspirations.
Methodology: To achieve the purpose of the study, a systematic review of research literature was undertaken. Three novels namely ‘Gently Falls the Bakula’ ‘House Of Cards and ‘Mahaswetha’ have been critically analyzed. In addition to this, the research articles published in the Peer-Reviewed Journals were also examined. With the help of the literature, we were able to study the struggle of women and how they overcome the barriers by finding a solution to lead a meaningful life.
Main Findings: The findings that emerged from the Study reveal the violence, denigration, and exploitation faced by the female characters of the novels such as Anupama, Mridula and Shrimati. It is also found that Man-Woman relationship, social acceptance, and estrangement in modern life, forms the core in all the novels namely ‘Gently Falls the Bakula’ ‘House of Cards’ and ‘Mahaswetha’. It is inferred that the women in the novels such as Mridula, Srimati and Anupama are simple, hardworking and innocent throughout, whereas the males - Sanjay, Srikant, and Anand are strongly influenced by the power of luxury, comfort, and materialism, steadily climbing up the corporate ladder without realizing the value of family life. The man’s greed for power, luxury, and social status has proved to be very expensive to the female characters. The female protagonists realize the fact that artificial values and material success cannot make a person successful. They also work tirelessly to overcome the barriers drawn by male-dominated society to lead a purposeful life.
Implications: Social and Ethical values are delineated in the novels taken for study. Life is depicted as a journey with learning and unlearning experiences meeting with innumerable obstacles and barriers to testing the grit and willpower. These obstacles help us to make a decision as seen in the protagonists depicted by Sudha Murthy. Their choices were hard yet, they gathered courage, purpose, and meaning to create a new horizon. Getting to know our real worth is a relentless task, it helps us to toughen our values and passion. Self-discovery is not an easy ride and it requires pain and understanding. The characters here gather courage and face a new dawn.

Sports in the Case-Law of the European Court of Human Rights
Authors: Czepek Jakub 
Published: October 2019

Sport has been an object of interest of international law on several occasions. It has also been a point of interest of regional human rights protection, for example within the legal system of Council of Europe. Recently, the European Court of Human Rights has developed its case-law concerning sport-related issues, such as football supporters related violence and prevention of events of hooliganism, anti-doping related issues or fairness of proceedings before The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne or the protection of professional athletes’ rights in the context of anti-doping requirements. The article focuses on the ECtHR case-law relating to sport within the meaning of the right to life (art. 2 of the ECHR), prohibition of torture of inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment (art. 3 of the ECHR), right to liberty and security (art.5 of the ECHR), right to a fair trial (art.6 of the ECHR) or right to protection of private and family life (art.8 of the ECHR).

Published: October 2019

Le botrytis impacte le rendement et la qualité des moûts. Pour se prémunir de ces dégâts, les viticulteurs axent la lutte contre cette maladie sur l’application de produits phytosanitaires et sur la mise en œuvre de mesures prophylactiques. En climat océanique, un ou deux traitements annuels à base de produits dangereux pour l’environnement et la santé de l’opérateur, et souvent onéreux, sont couramment appliqués. Les produits de « biocontrôle » pourraient être une alternative intéressante à ces derniers mais, comme en témoigne cette étude, ils ne sont pas aussi performants que les fongicides classiques.
RESEARCH TRENDS IN JAPANESE ON CHINESE AGRICULTURE MANAGEMENT (FOCUSING ON PERIOD AFTER RURAL REFORM IN 1978)
Authors: Suxiang Bai 
Published: October 2019

The purpose of this research is to examine the characteristics of the Japanese research trend on Chinese family farm management published after the Chinese rural reform in 1978.The whole 152 articles were collected under the keyword of Chinese Agriculture Management through CiNii that is the most reliable academic information database in Japan. Based on article productivity the study extracted the four stage of research development: incubating stage, growing stage, peak stage, and stabilizing mature stage. Research subject categorization unveiled two general research frameworks: macro approach framework and micro approach framework. In the macro framework, farm management is structurally grasped under the relationship with external or environmental conditions surrounding farm management entities. In the micro framework farm management is grasped within internal structural relationship of family based on inputs (land and labor) and output (income). For solving the weakness of Chinese family farm holding a small land, the study extracted two strategic frameworks of integration in farm management: agricultural industrialization and farm cooperative movement. The former is a vertical integration and the latter is a horizontal integration of farm management. Those integrations of farm management require not only macro and micro level research but also mezzo(middle) approach which focuses on the relationships between community or village and farm family. Especially this mezzo approach is important to understand the reality of farm management under the on-going situation in which many farm families depend on both agriculture and non-agriculture jobs. The fact that the dates for publications in China are limited at the macro-level of nation, province and city has created the research tendency towards bipolar differentiation in macro and micro level research. Thus mezzo-level research on towns and villages has become more important.

Published: October 2019

SummaryThis paper presents a methodology for the geostatistical estimation of reservoir properties to handle uncertainties in observation and modeling. Given certain known well-log data in a geological region, the Kriging methodology is used to estimate or predict spatial phenomena at nonsampled locations from the estimated random function. The approach assumes that the data are accurate and precise, and the random function is generated from a thorough descriptive analysis of the known data set. Regarding the assumptions considered in classic Kriging, it is realistic to assume that spatial data contain a certain amount of imprecision, mostly because of measurement errors, and information is lacking to properly assess a unique random-function model. A methodology is presented for the geostatistical estimation of reservoir properties to handle uncertainties in observation and modeling. A combination of regular, or classic, Kriging and the fuzzy-logic method is proposed. As such, imprecise input data and variogram parameters are modeled on the basis of fuzzy-logic theory, while the predictions and variances are computed from Kriging analysis characterized by membership functions. Last, an optimization method is included to solve the constrained fuzzy-nonlinear-equation system. The proposed methodology was implemented, and a user-friendly integrated tool was developed, which enables the user to create a grid structure on the basis of the input data, conduct statistical analysis, and run fuzzy Kriging for various problems. We used the tool to run a test case using the SPE 10 (SPE Comparative Solution Project, Model-II 2000) porosity data. With the fuzzy-Kriging methodology, two maps are generated with upper-bound values and lower-bound values. Compared with true data, the upper-bound map trends to include higher values better, while the lower-bound map trends to include lower-value parts better. In addition, a case study has been conducted using measured core-permeability data in a heterogeneous reservoir to demonstrate the viability of the technology.

Published: October 2019

Summary
In this paper, we present field results from a series of drilling operations where advances in sensor and control-system technology enable a high degree of automated pressure control in underbalanced-drilling (UBD) operations in Siberia, Russia. Traditionally, this fractured carbonate field was drilled conventionally using water as drilling fluid, accepting losses after hitting the first fractures, resulting in wells with access to only two or three fractures and not reaching target depth (TD) of the productive section. For these operations, a combination of nitrified water and crude oil was used. Applying automated pressure control with UBD equipment enables drilling with a controlled drawdown from the fractures, enabling the drilling of significantly longer wells, maximizing discovered fractures per well.
In this paper, we show how the drilling of these wells has been achieved with the combination of sensors for managed-pressure drilling (MPD) and UBD and an automated pressure control system that maintains a constant drawdown throughout operations.
Bayesian Modeling of Spatiotemporal patterns of TB-HIV co-infection risk in Kenya
Authors: Otiende Verrah A , Achia Thomas N O , Mwambi Henry G 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
Background
Tuberculosis (TB) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) diseases are globally acknowledged as a public health challenge that exhibits adverse bidirectional relations due to the co-epidemic overlap. To understand the co-infection burden we used the case notification data to generate spatiotemporal maps that described the distribution and exposure hypotheses for further epidemiologic investigations in areas with unusual case notification levels.
Methods
We analyzed the TB and TB-HIV case notification data from the Kenya national TB control program aggregated for forty-seven counties over a seven-year period (2012 – 2018). Using the Integrated Nested Laplace Approach (INLA), we modeled the risk of TB-HIV co-infection. Six competing models with varying space-time formulations were compared to determine the best fit model. We then assessed the geographic patterns and temporal trends of coinfection risk by mapping the posterior marginal from the best fit model.
Results
Of the total 608312 TB case notifications, 194129 were HIV co-infected. The proportion of TB-HIV co-infection was higher in females (39.7%) than in males (27.0%). A significant share of the co-infection was among adults aged 35 to 44 years (46.7%) and 45 to 54 years (42.1%). Based on the Bayesian Defiance Information (DIC) and the effective number of parameters comparisons, the spatiotemporal model 3b was the best in explaining the geographical variations in TB-HIV coinfection. The model results suggested that the risk of TB-HIV coinfection was influenced by infrastructure index (Relative risk (RR)=5.75, Credible Interval (Cr.I) = (1.65, 19.89)) and gender ratio . The lowest and highest temporal relative risks were in the years 2016 at 0.9 and 2012 at 1.07 respectively. The spatial pattern presented an increased co-infection risk in a number of counties. For the spatiotemporal interaction, only a few counties had a relative risk greater than 1 that varied in different years.
Conclusions
We identified elevated risk areas for TB/HIV co-infection and fluctuating temporal trends which could be because of improved TB case detection or surveillance bias caused by spatial heterogeneity in the co-infection dynamics. Focused interventions and continuous TB-HIV surveillance will ensure adequate resource allocation and significant reduction of HIV burden amongst TB patients

Introducción: Múltiples factores del trabajador y su entorno influyen en su desempeño laboral. Debido al uso frecuente de teléfonos inteligentes e Internet móvil, las empresas actualmente están adoptando tecnologías móviles y numerosas aplicaciones con el propósito de aumentar su eficiencia operativa y competitividad por lo que es necesario evaluarlos en nuestro entorno. El objetivo del estudio fueidentificar la asociación del desempeño percibido ajustado a la salud del trabajador con el uso del móvil.Método: En 114 trabajadores de la industria del calzado y de servicios, se aplicaron el Work Role Functioning Questionnaire y el Cuestionario de Experiencias Relacionadas con el Móvil (CERM). También se registraron sus principales patologías, estado civil, número de hijos, edad, sexo, antigüedad en el trabajo, número de horas laboradas por semana y su opinión respecto al uso del móvil en el trabajo. De acuerdo a la distribución de las variables efectuamos prueba de Pearson o Spearman para evaluar la asociación entre variables con distribución normal o sesgada respectivamente. La variable dependiente fue el desempeño laboral percibido y ajustado al estado de salud del trabajador y como variables independientes se consideraron la edad, la antigüedad en el trabajo y las horas laboradas a la semana. Se realizaron comparaciones por sexo y de acuerdo a ser empleados profesionales o no profesionales. Para la comparación de variables continuas entre los grupos efectuamos prueba t de Student no pareada o U de Mann-Whitney de acuerdo a la distribución de los datos y chi cuadrada para comparación de proporciones. Un valor de p<0.05 se considera significativo.Resultados: Del grupo total de trabajadores, 70(61.4%) reportó que es necesario el uso del móvil en al ámbito laboral principalmente para comunicación con personal del equipo de trabajo, información requerida en el trabajo y como herramienta para localizar formatos, proveedores etc. El factor conflictos del uso del móvil mostró correlación negativa con las demandas de salida (r=-0.21; p= 0.026), las mentales (r=-0.21; p= 0.03), físicas (r=-0.19; p= 0.041) y la puntuación total del desempeño laboral (r=-0.21; p= 0.025). El factor uso comunicacional correlacionó de forma negativa con las demandas sociales (r=-0.22; p= 0.021) y la puntuación total del desempeño laboral (r=-0.20; p= 0.032). La puntuación total de CERM mostró asociación negativa con la puntuación total del desempeño laboral (r=-0.23; p= 0.015) y todos sus factores exceptuando las demandas físicas (r=-0.17; p= 0.068). En las mujeres se identificó menor IMC, número de horas laboradas por semana, número de hijos, años de pareja y demandas sociales.Conclusión: El uso excesivo del móvil se asocia de forma inversa al desempeño laboral percibido en trabajadores del calzado y de servicios.
Medición de la sustentabilidad turística en una pequeña localidad costera a través de indicadores, barómetros y consulta a expertos
Authors: Ibáñez Pérez Reyna María 
Published: October 2019

Los indicadores proporcionan pautas para mejorar la calidad de vida. A nivel nacional son escasos los estudios sobre turismo en pequeñas localidades costeras por ello, se tomo como caso de estudio a Cabo Pulmo, Baja California Sur (BCS), un destino importante debido a la presencia de arrecifes y enorme diversidad aprovechada con fines recreacionales pese a ello, existe poca información sobre su impacto en el bienestar local. El objetivo de esta investigación fue medir el grado de sustentabilidad turística de Cabo Pulmo, BCS, una pequeña localidad costera sujeta a protección ambiental.El método utilizado se baso en el perfeccionamiento de dos metodologías, una propuesta por la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (UICN) y otra propuesta por la Organización Mundial de Turismo (OMT) y la Secretaría de Turismo (SECTUR) a su vez para la generación de la información de los indicadores se aplicaron técnicas mixtas y posteriormente, se formularon y ponderaron escenarios mediante el Método Delphi.Los resultados para 46 indicadores (23 del componente social y 23 del ambiental) revelaron que el ISL promedio fue de 0.70 y al ajustarlo con base en cuatro criterios de ponderación propuestos por expertos, se obtuvo: ISLae₁=.73, ISLae₂=70, ISLae₃=.73, ISLae₄=.84, según los tres primeros escenarios se corrobora que Cabo Pulmo, BCS se situá en un nivel Bueno de sustentabilidad sin embargo de manera excepcional, en el último escenario se le cualificó en un nivel Alto o excelente. Del mismo modo, los principales hallazgos apuntan a que Cabo Pulmo, presenta cierto grado de rezago social. Tal situación, no es única de la localidad estudiada; si no que suele observarse en pequeñas localidades o áreas, cercanas a enormes polos de desarrollo turísticos.Al contrastar los resultados con otros estudios se encontró que el sitio analizado presenta el mismo nivel de sustentabilidad que entidades de México como BCS y se localiza por arriba de naciones como Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistán y Bután. Por otra parte, debe considerarse que el valor promedio de los componentes se localizaron en el límite superior (en el caso del componente ambiental) e inferior (en el componente social) del nivel de categorización y una pequeña reducción de los valores, en ambos o algunos de los componentes, puede ocasionar que la localidad se ubique en un grado de sustentabilidad más pobre. Las principales recomendaciones son: 1) Poner especial cuidado en mejorar los indicadores categorizados como críticos por ejemplo: servicios de salud y educación, calidad del agua para uso doméstico, viviendas con drenaje, caminos en buen estado y la relación visitantes Vs habitantes y 2) Seguir generando información para evaluar la variación en el nivel de sustentabilidad local.
