Packet-Level Link Capacity Evaluation for IP Networks
Authors: Mirtchev Seferin T. 
Published: April 2018

Abstract
In recent times, with many applications, the IP networks have become the most powerful tool for sharing information. Best-effort IP interconnected networks deliver data according to the available resources, without any assurance of throughput, delay bounds, or reliability requirements. As a result, their performance is highly variable and cannot be guaranteed. In IP networks, ensuring proper link capacity at the packet level is a challenging problem. In this article, a method to evaluate the link capacity of IP networks at the packet level based on a single server delay system with state-dependent arrival and departure processes is suggested. The dependence of the traffic being carried on the queue length and on the defined waiting time is shown. Presented graphic dependencies allow for defined quality of service, namely the probability of packet loss and admissible delays, to determine the carried traffic of the links.
An Automatically Generated Annotated Corpus for Albanian Named Entity Recognition

Published: April 2018

Abstract
Named Entity Recognition (NER) is an important task in many NLP pipelines. It has become especially important for knowledge bases that power many of the nowadays information retrieval systems. In order to cope with the high demand for annotated training corpora for supervised NER systems, automatic generation approaches have been proposed. In this paper we report on the first automatically generated NE annotated corpus for Albanian. News articles from Albanian news media were used as a document source. They were automatically tagged using a custom generated gazetteer from the Albanian Wikipedia. Our evaluation results show that this corpus can be used as a baseline corpus for human annotated ones or as a training corpus where no other is available.

Published: April 2018

Abstract
Measuring the amount of shared information between two documents is a key to address a number of Natural Language Processing (NLP) challenges such as Information Retrieval (IR), Semantic Textual Similarity (STS), Sentiment Analysis (SA) and Plagiarism Detection (PD). In this paper, we report a plagiarism detection system based on two layers of assessment: 1) Fingerprinting which simply compares the documents fingerprints to detect the verbatim reproduction; 2) Word embedding which uses the semantic and syntactic properties of words to detect much more complicated reproductions. Moreover, Word Alignment (WA), Inverse Document Frequency (IDF) and Part-of-Speech (POS) weighting are applied on the examined documents to support the identification of words that are most descriptive in each textual unit. In the present work, we focused on Arabic documents and we evaluated the performance of the system on a data-set of holding three types of plagiarism: 1) Simple reproduction (copy and paste); 2) Word and phrase shuffling; 3) Intelligent plagiarism including synonym substitution, diacritics insertion and paraphrasing. The results show a recall of 88% and a precision of 86%. Compared to the results obtained by the systems participating in the Arabic Plagiarism Detection Shared Task 2015, our system outperforms all of them with a plagiarism detection score (Plagdet) of 83%.

Abstract
Proper management of natural ecosystems is not possible without the knowledge of the health status of its components. Vegetation, as the main component of the ecosystem, plays an important role in its health. One of the key determinants of vegetation health is its resilience in the face of environmental disorders. This research was conducted in parts of the Namakzar-e Khaf watershed in Northeast of South Khorasan Province with the aim of quantifying the vegetative resilience on behalf of the ecosystem health in response to long-term precipitation changes. First, the annual precipitation standardization was performed during a thirty-year period by the SPI method. Then, the average variation in TNDVI index obtained from the Landsat satellite images was examined and the resilience was tested by calculating the four effective factors (amplitude, malleability, damping and hysteresis). According to the results, the amplitude in the survey period was 6.04% and the vegetation has had different values of damping over the years. The most prominent example of vegetation resilience occurred between 1986 and 1996, with malleability of 0.7 and damping of zero. Vegetation in this period, after the elimination of drought effects (1986), has not only returned to the amount of vegetation of reference year with severe precipitation (1996) but also increased by 0.25%. This increase, as the index of hysteresis, has been presented for the first time in the ecosystem health discussion quantitatively in the present study. A set of quantitative calculations showed that despite reduced annual precipitation and drought events, the vegetation has been able to maintain its resilience, which indicates the health of vegetation in the studied ecosystem.

Summary
We tested the role of sex, size, and mass of the lizards Phyllopezus pollicaris, Gymnodactylus geckoides, Hemidactylus agrius, Lygodactylus klugei, and Hemidactylus brasilianus on the rates of pentastomid infection in the Brazilian Caatinga. We collected 355 individuals of these five species, of which four (prevalence of infection: P. pollicaris 15.9 %, G. geckoides 1.4 %, H. agrius 28.57 %, and H. brasilianus 4.16 %) were infected by Raillietiella mottae. Parasite abundance was influenced by host body size and mass only in P. pollicaris. Host sex did not influence the abundance of parasites in any species. Hemidactylus agrius, G. geckoides, and H. brasilianus are three new host records for pentastomids.

Published: April 2018

Jamur Tiram putih (Pleurotus ostreatus) merupakan salah satu jamur yang dimanfaatkan untuk bahan makanan karena kandungan gizi yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan jamur lain. Upaya untuk meningkatkan produksi jamur ini masih terus dilakukan, misalnya dengan penggunaan campuran media tanam dan aplikasi pupuk organik cair. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh jenis campuran media tanam, pemberian pupuk cair serta interaksi keduanya guna pertumbuhan jamur tiram putih. Kegiatan penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Rumah Jamur Agrojamur Kecamatan Baturaden, Kabupaten Banyumas. Rancangan penelitian yang digunakan adalah rancangan acak kelompok lengkap (RAKL) dengan 2 faktor dan 3 ulangan. Faktor pertama yaitu jenis campuran media tanam dan dosis pupuk organik cair. Variabel yang diamati pada penelitian ini adalah saat muncul tubuh buah, jumlah tubuh buah jamur keseluruhan, kadar air jamur, berat segar dan kering jamur saat panen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan komposisi media tanam menggunakan serbuk gergaji tanpa potongan kardus mampu meningkatkan berat segar jamur, berat kering jamur, dan jumlah tubuh buah jamur. Perlakuan menggunakan campuran media tanam (25% serbuk gergaji + 75% kardus) mampu meningkatkan waktu munculnya tubuh buah jamur dibandingkan dengan perlakuan lainnya. Aplikasi pupuk organik cair dan interaksi antara kedua perlakuan tidak memberikan pengaruh yang nyata bagi pertumbuhan jambur tiram putih.

Proses produksi benih kentang (Solanum tuberosum L.) pada umumnya dihasilkan didataran tinggi (1.500 - 3.000 m dpl), akan tetapi tidak menutup kemungkinan di produksi di dataran yang lebih rendah dengan bantuan teknologi tertentu selama proses budidayanya. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mendapatkan metode produksi benih kentang di dataran menengah (650 m dpl) melalui pemanfaatan asal bahan tanam dan melihat interaksinya terhadap komposisi media tanam. Percobaan menggunakan RAK faktorial terdiri dari perlakuan 2 jenis asal bahan tanam (stek mini/S1 dan umbi mikro/S2) dan 3 jenis komposisi media tanam dengan perbandingan sama, komposisi A (arang sekam: cocopeat: tanah); komposisi B (arang sekam: cocopeat: tanah: kascing) dan komposisi C (arang sekam: cocopeat: tanah: pupuk kandang ayam). Percobaan diulang 4 kali. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persentase hidup tanaman kentang Granola Kembang cukup baik (79,16% hidup). Asal bahan tanam umbi mikro mempunyai kemampuan bertahan hidup lebih besar (87.50%), dibandingkan asal bahan tanam stek mini (70,8%). Factor interaksi antara asal bahan tanam dengan macam komposisi media tidak menunjukkan beda nyata. Beda nyata hanya terjadi pada factor tunggal, dimana pada parameter pertumbuhan (jumlah anakan, tinggi) asal bahan tanam umbi mikro lebih baik dibandingkan bahan stek mini. Pengaruh komposisi media terhadap parameter pertumbuhan tertinggi diperoleh pada komposisi C (arang sekam: cocopeat: tanah: pupuk kandang ayam), disusul komposisi B dan komposisi A terendah. Produksi umbi G2 jumlah umbi dan berat umbi per sampel serta produksi umbi total tertinggi di peroleh pada komposisi media C, disusul komposisi media B dan hasil terendah diperoleh pada komposisi media A. Hasil produksi umbi terbaik diperoleh dari bahan tanam asal umbi mikro dibandingkan dengan stek mini.

Study Design Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial and a prospective cohort. Background The number of arthroscopic surgical procedures for patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) has significantly increased worldwide, but high-quality evidence of the effect of such interventions is lacking. Objectives The primary objective will be to determine the efficacy of hip arthroscopic procedures compared to sham surgery on patient-reported outcomes for patients with FAIS (HIP ARThroscopy International [HIPARTI] Study). The secondary objective will be to evaluate prognostic factors for long-term outcome after arthroscopic surgical interventions in patients with FAIS (Hip ARthroscopy Prospective [HARP] Study). Methods The HIPARTI Study will include 140 patients and the HARP Study will include 100 patients. The international Hip Outcome Tool-33 will be the primary outcome measure at 1 year. Secondary outcome measures will be the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale, fear of movement (Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia), Patient-Specific Functional Scale, global rating of change score, and expectations. Other outcomes will include active hip range of motion, hip muscle strength tests, functional performance tests, as well as radiological assessments using radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging. Conclusion To determine the true effect of surgery, beyond that of placebo, double-blinded placebo-controlled trials including sham surgery are needed. The HIPARTI Study will direct future evidence-based treatment of FAIS. Predictors for long-term development and progression of degenerative changes in the hip are also needed for this young patient group with FAIS; hence, responders and nonresponders to treatment could be determined.

Published: April 2018

Study Design Cross-sectional. Background Hip pain is associated with reduced muscle strength and range of movement (ROM). These impairments may contribute to decreased postural stability and balance. The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) is a reliable and valid method to measure dynamic postural control. Objectives To evaluate the association between SEBT performance and hip strength, hip ROM, trunk endurance, and group characteristics in individuals with hip pain. Methods One hundred eleven individuals with hip pain, scheduled for arthroscopic hip surgery, were matched with 62 healthy controls. Hip ROM and muscle strength, trunk endurance, and SEBT reach were measured prior to surgery. Data were analyzed for between-group differences using t tests, and associations between SEBT reach and hip strength, hip ROM, and population characteristics were evaluated with Pearson correlation coefficients and stepwise backward regression analyses. Results Star Excursion Balance Test performance (P<.01), hip strength (P<.01), and hip ROM (P<.05) were lower in the presurgery group compared to controls. In the presurgery group, when adjusted for height and weight, hip flexion strength and internal rotation ROM accounted for 44% of the variance in anteromedial SEBT reach. In the posteromedial direction, hip adduction strength and sex accounted for 53% of the variance. For the posterolateral direction, hip adduction and internal rotation strength accounted for 46% of reach variance. Conclusion The individuals who were scheduled for arthroscopic hip surgery were significantly weaker, had less hip mobility, and had reduced dynamic balance compared to controls. In this population, dynamic balance performance was associated with various hip strength and ROM measurements in a direction-specific manner.

BRICS: UM BALANÇO CRÍTICO
Authors: Garcia Ana Saggioro 
Published: April 2018

<div class="WordSection1"><p>Surgido a partir de conferências internacionais no início deste século, os BRICS ganharam importância política e econômica após a crise mundial de 2008, quando passaram a ser vistos como um polo alternativo a hegemonia dos EUA e da Europa. Neste artigo, todavia se questiona o suposto papel contra hegemônico dos BRICS. Em termos políticos, sua agenda não vem sendo de confrontação, mas sim a de reivindicar “um lugar à mesa” junto às potências ocidentais. Enfim, buscam um lugar apropriado à sua dimensão econômica nas instâncias de concerto global. De todo modo, iniciativas como a de criação do Novo Banco de Desenvolvimento e uma política de cooperação internacional diferenciada representam pontos de disputa entre os BRICS e os polos de poder tradicionais. Mas isso está longe de significar uma real alternativa para uma ordem mundial mais justa. Além disso, entre os países membros existem não só convergências. As próprias relações entre os BRICS e deles com outros países do Sul global se inserem num quadro mais amplo de acumulação capitalista e respondem a uma lógica de disputa por recursos naturais, acesso a mercados e mão-de-obra barata. Por isso mesmo, um desafio central continua sendo a articulação de lutas sociais desde baixo: camponeses e trabalhadores/as que enfrentam e resistem em seus territórios a grandes projetos conduzidos por corporações dos países BRICS e suas instituições financeiras.</p></div>
REVISIÓN DE LA SUBJETIVIDAD LABORAL FEMENINA EN MÉXICO, DESDE LAS TESIS DE LA PSICODINÁMICA DEL TRABAJO

Published: April 2018

<p>Con la implementación del modelo de desarrollo capitalista neoliberal (80s), la estructura económica global entró en una fase de grandes transformaciones, las cuáles afectaron diversos espacios del desarrollo. En el ámbito de los mercados de trabajo, las alteraciones impactaron las configuraciones típicas del empleo, perjudicando a todos los actores y trastocando con ello sus percepciones laborales; desde diversos niveles de subjetividad. En el ámbito de la subjetividad del trabajo y teniendo como objeto de estudio a las mujeres ocupadas en áreas de limpieza y con base en los supuestos de las tesis de la psicodinámica del trabajo, (en las líneas de las nuevas patologías del trabajo; evasión de la realidad y roles familiares, y simbolismos de defensa), la investigación identifica, analiza y explica una serie de estrategias (simbólicas) que instrumentaron las mismas en el desarrollo de sus actividades. Dichas estrategias tienen como objetivo eludir las repercusiones negativas que los altos niveles de precariedad y desigualdad provocaron en su desarrollo ocupacional, personal y familiar, lo cual al parecer les ayudó a sobrellevar su vida social en una armonía aparente. Asimismo, las acciones factiblemente pueden contribuir a perpetuar y mantener la explotación que tradicionalmente sufre este estrato social. </p>
