Teknik Interpolasi Bikubik untuk Memperbesar Gambar Hasil Pemetaan Suhu dari Sensor MLX90640 pada Praktikum Mikrokontroller
Authors: Darwis Mochammad 
Published: December 2021

The occurrence of various disruptions and damage to equipment and electrical installations begins with a significant temperature increase in it. The temperature increasing in electrical equipment and installations will also increase the consumption of energy or power required. Previous technology used a temperature sensor and current sensor which had to be installed in the environment to be monitored. The temperature measurement system without touching the surface which is measured using infrared rays is a new breakthrough that really helps maintenance and repair. Also with the existence of a temperature sensor arranged in an array, it can map the existing temperature so that it can provide a better picture for analyzing the symptoms that occur, compared to using a temperature sensor that measures one point only. A temperature imaging camera is currently very expensive, making procurement a bit difficult for laboratories dealing with electrical equipment and installations. In this research, we will try to make an inexpensive temperature imaging camera using the MLX90640 sensor and the ESP32 microcontroller. Bicubic interpolation is used to enlarge the resulting image obtained by the MLX90640 sensor. The MATLAB program is used to simulate and create an overall temperature imaging camera system. Tested and compared with two other interpolation methods to ensure that bicubic interpolation can produce better magnified images.

Published: December 2021

Capacity and queue management are currently used in financial institutions. With decreasing bank units due to internet services, research in this field has focused on improving to utilize their employees efficiently and achieve service excellence. In developing countries like Brazil, the customer has become more bank-accounted due to government and labor requirements, such as the wage credit became mandatory in the wage account. The paper's aim is motivated by a real-life case study to simulate discrete events to improve queue management at a Brazilian bank branch with the Arena software simulation environment. The simulation model was designed, tested, and applied considering the Discrete Event Simulation (DES) replication for queuing strategies on a real-world banking scenario. The arrival and service times were collected from 115 customers in Ferraz de Vasconcelos/SP city. It was performed in version 15.10 (2018) of the Arena software, with processor Intel core i3 CPU dual-core 3.07 GHz and 8GB of RAM. The results indicate that the bank agency should consider providing 9 to 11 operators to attend customers considering the arrival and service rate.
Existence of traveling wave solutions in nonlocal delayed higher-dimensional lattice systems with quasi-monotone nonlinearities
Authors: Li Kun , He Yanli 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In this paper, we are concerned with the existence of traveling wave solutions in nonlocal delayed higher-dimensional lattice systems with quasi-monotone nonlinearities. By using the upper and lower solution method and Schauder’s fixed point theorem, we establish the existence of traveling wave solutions. To illustrate our results, the existence of traveling wave solutions for a nonlocal delayed higher-dimensional lattice cooperative system with two species are considered.

On log-bimodal alpha-power distributions with application to nickel contents and erosion data
Authors: Salinas Hugo S. , Martínez-Flórez Guillermo , Lemonte Artur J. , Bolfarine Heleno 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In this paper, we present a new parametric class of distributions based on the log-alpha-power distribution, which contains the well-known log-normal distribution as a special case. This new family is useful to deal with unimodal as well as bimodal data with asymmetry and kurtosis coefficients ranging far from that expected based on the log-normal distribution. The usual approach is considered to perform inferences, and the traditional maximum likelihood method is employed to estimate the unknown parameters. Monte Carlo simulation results indicate that the maximum likelihood approach is quite effective to estimate the model parameters. We also derive the observed and expected Fisher information matrices. As a byproduct of such study, it is shown that the Fisher information matrix is nonsingular throughout the sample space. Empirical applications of the proposed family of distributions to real data are provided for illustrative purposes.
On the Fear of the Void and Killing Babies in Pascal, Nabokov, and Game of Thrones
Authors: Bronowski Ada 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The article places Game of Thrones within a tradition of pessimism, reaching back to Blaise Pascal and coloured by Nabokov’s vision of birth as a separation between two voids. This lineage provides a philosophical thread to analyse the motivations and actions of the protagonists of Game of Thrones, in particular their relation to child-killing. The void looms large in the world of Game of Thrones as the unchartered space beyond the wall. It is the awareness of the reality of this void and the horrors it harbours which is shown to propel those who have it, to go to the greatest lengths to preserve the life of a child.
From Episodic Novel to Serial TV:The Handmaid’s Tale, Adaptation and Politics
Authors: Gerrits Jeroen 
Published: December 2021

AbstractThis article analyzes the changes inThe Handmaid’s Tale’s moral and political outlook as it tracks different forms of complexity in the novel, the film, and the TV series. While the sense of female empowerment increases with each adaptation of this tale of forced sexual servitude in fictional theocratic state of Gilead, the essay argues that Hulu’s TV series (created by Bruce Miller, 2017–) develops an intriguing interaction between the interiority of Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel and the exteriority emphasized in Volker Schlöndorff’s 1990 film. In so doing, the TV series Escher-twists across related binaries between activity/passivity and personal/political actions as well. By expanding, displacing, and creatively intersecting storylines which the novel cut short, the series weaves an intricate perspectival web that invites the viewer to participate in its mind games.
The Adoption of International Arbitration as the Preferred ADR Process in the Resolution of International Intellectual Property Disputes
Authors: Lewis David 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This article, which is intended for arbitration practitioners, demonstrates that international arbitration as a subset of the field of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) offers a useful toolkit for the expeditious resolution of international intellectual property law disputes. The article demonstrates how the theory and practice of international arbitration is particularly well poised to address some of the specific considerations and requirements of paramount concern to the international intellectual property lawyers and their clients. The article will explain how the inherent features of the international arbitration legal landscape combine to indicate that it should be considered as the preferred method of ADR and explain how each of these features can provide both time and cost efficiencies. The article will identify the legal reasoning behind the benefits inherent to choosing international arbitration and will also address those circumstances when international arbitration may be precluded or otherwise considered unsuitable for intellectual property matters. The article examines several distinct benefits that international arbitration uniquely offers to international intellectual property law users and highlights some areas of the field that require additional caution.
The Universal Right to File Petitions as a Contemporary Challenge for Legal Studies
Authors: Małecka-Łyszczek Magdalena , Małysa-Sulińska Katarzyna 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The universality of the right to petition, in terms of both the broad specification of its subject matter and the group of entities entitled to petition, as well as the specification of the accessible formal requirements for filing petitions, is a challenge at the level of both lawmaking and applying the law. The need arises not only to ensure that an extensive group of entities has the opportunity to file a petition, but also to provide a guarantee that the petition will be processed and considered properly. The subject matter of this article is the analysis of the Polish legal regulations on this, as well as a review of the established practices of filing petitions with the Sejm and the Senate, as well as their comparison with the solutions applied in other countries. The findings indicate that this is a tool of a civil society commonly used in the European Union Member States. It should also be noted that the Polish solutions, as well as the practice of their application, are seen to be particularly targeted at increasing social activity and enabling the use of the potential that is inherent in the citizens, groups of citizens and all forms in which they can interact with each other.
The Role of Fiscal Expenditure Rules in Maintaining the Financial Stability of the State
Authors: Lotko Ewa 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
One of the main challenges which legal science faces nowadays is the creation of legal mechanisms guaranteeing sound public finance. The aim of this article is to assess the role of national fiscal rules in maintaining financial stability. Firstly, to fulfil this aim, the role of fiscal rules and their efficiency was analysed. Next, based on the commonly used tool assessing the quality of national fiscal rules – the Fiscal Rule Index – the quality of expenditure rules in the EU countries was analysed in order to evaluate the Polish stabilising expenditure rule and the escape clause of its application. Therefore, the following research question is to be answered: whether in the face of an unstable financial situation of the state connected with an increasing deficit, deviation from the stabilising expenditure rule should be considered as being right. Research methods based on non-reactive research, i.e., analysis of professional literature, legal acts, and statistical data published by the European Commission, were used in this article. Due to this analysis, it was indicated that expenditure rules are regarded as one of the most effective tools to manage public funds, and therefore any derogations from the application of these rules should be evaluated negatively.

An observational and cross-sectional study of prescribing pattern of antifungal drugs in a tertiary care center of Bihar
Authors: Singh Asha , Manohar Murli 
Published: December 2021

Fungal infections take a toll on the health of all individuals, irrespective of ages, gender, ethnicity etc. But still major researchers have focused on antibacterial rather than antifungal till recent past, when the limelight has moved to antifungal medicines. Adding to the gravity of the situation, is the growing resistance against these drugs. Keeping these facts in mind, this study was planned to delineate the prescribing pattern of antifungal drugs by the various specialty in a tertiary care center in the eastern part of the country. This was an observational and cross-sectional hospital-based study. The study incorporated 218 patients from various departments of the hospital during the study duration that was from March 2021 to September 2021. Descriptive statistics was performed using SPSS ver 20.0. Results has been depicted in formof text and table. Antifungal medicines prescribed mostly for leukemia and other immunocompromised status. Most of the patients came from the department of general medicine. Majority of the patients had hematological disorders followed by infections. Anidulafungin was reported to have been prescribed most commonly by the department of surgery in patients with solid tumors. Patients with lung infections also received this drug by physicians. This use can be justified by its action against invasive aspergillosis, oesophageal candidiasis and peritonitis and intraabdominal abscess caused by candida species. Ketoconazole and clotrimazole were the least used antifungal agents in our study. These two agents are mainly indicated for topical use The current report will aid in understanding antifungal prescription practices. This will also form a basis for future researches and formulating guidelines for rational use of these drugs.
Los grupos cooperativos. Las especialidades del régimen de consolidación fiscal
Authors: González-Perabá Miralles Pedro J. 
Published: December 2021

Los grupos cooperativos constituyen una de las manifestaciones del principio de intercooperación. Si los grupos de sociedades se basan en la idea del control que una sociedad ejerce sobre otra u otras, los grupos cooperativos se basan en la existencia de una unidad de dirección por parte de la entidad cabeza del grupo, que deriva de un acuerdo de voluntades entre las cooperativas que lo integran. Esta diferente naturaleza da lugar a importantes especialidades en el régimen jurídico de los grupos cooperativos, que se presentan tanto en su regulación mercantil como tributaria. En este artículo analizaremos las especialidades que presenta el régimen de consolidación fiscal de los grupos cooperativos, tanto en la normativa de Territorio Común como de los Territorios Históricos del País Vasco, frente al régimen de consolidación fiscal contenido en la normativa general del Impuesto sobre Sociedades.

La cooperación en las cooperativas de iniciativa social para maximizar su posicionamiento en el ámbito asistencial
Authors: Rius Coma Martí 
Published: December 2021

La prestación de servicios sociales públicos por entidades de naturaleza privada en régimen de gestión indirecta se encuentra en un momento trascendental en cuanto a la definición de los nuevos sistemas de colaboración público-privada que permitan afrontar los nuevos retos en el ámbito asistencial. Tradicionalmente, las cooperativas de iniciativa social han sido un agente protagonista en el actual modelo asistencial, garantizando el servicio en periodos en los que los poderes públicos carecían de instrumentos y recursos suficientes para dar cobertura al conjunto de la ciudadanía. En este contexto, las cooperativas de iniciativa social han venido colaborando de forma continuada con otras entidades del tercer sector. No obstante, como norma general, dicha colaboración se ha limitado a su integración en estructuras territoriales junto a dichas entidades sin desarrollar una auténtica estrategia propia de colaboración con otras cooperativas de iniciativa social. Así las cosas, en un momento tan trascendental para el futuro de estas cooperativas que desarrollan su actividad en el ámbito asistencial, la cooperación con otras cooperativas de iniciativa social es fundamental para garantizar su mejor posicionamiento frente a otras entidades lucrativas y no lucrativas ante la nueva configuración de la colaboración público-privada en la prestación de servicios sociales. Todo ello, a través de la puesta en valor de algunas de sus características intrínsecas diferenciales, como su participación democrática o su mayor experiencia en gestión.
