Gold pawn is one of sharia bank products that may provide additional income to the bank. Additional income can be included in fee-based income. However, in the implementation of the sale of gold pawn, not all sharia banks are lucky and feel its contribution. Bank Syariah Mandiri is a bank that is able to maintain gold pawn as one of its products in contributing income to fee-based income. Therefore, this paper discussed more about what the contribution of gold pawn to fee-basedincome and how the implementation of procedure so that this product can contribute to fee-based income for Bank Mandiri Syariah. These problems were investigated using a qualitative approach. Methods of collecting data used in this study were observation, interview and documentation. The data was analyzed descriptively. The data validity used in this study was triangulation technique.Research findings showed that the gold pawn has a contribution in the form of rental income or produced from ujroh. Ujroh is then entered into fee-based income.The transaction process of gold pawn was done by using covenant of rahn, qardh and ijara or in legal term called hybrid contract. Gadai emas salah satu produk bank Syariah yang bisa memberikan tambahan pendapatan pada bank. Tambahan pendapatan tersebut bisa masuk pada fee based income. Akan teta pi, dalam pelaksanaan penjualan gadai emas, tidak semua bank Syariah beruntung dan merasakan kontribusi dari produk gadai emas. Bank Syariah Mandiri adalah bank yang mampu mempertahankan gadai emas sebagai salah satu produknya dalam menyumbang pendapatan pada fee based income. Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini mengungkap lebih jauh mengenai apa sebenarnya kontribusi gadai emas terhadap fee based income dan bagaimana prosedur pelaksanaannya sehingga produk ini bisa memberikan kontribusi terhadap fee based income bank Syariah Mandiri.

O desenvolvimento econômico e social se faz a partir do acesso à informação e conhecimento e da interação entre as pessoas comprometidas com mesmo ideal. A finalidade deste estudo de caso é verificar se as redes sociais de informação desenvolvidas pelos associados do Sindicato Rural de Ponta Porã - MS, Brasil, possuem influência no comprometimento organizacional afetivo pela instituição. Para alcançar o objetivo, usou-se método quali-quantitativo para mensurar o comprometimento organizacional afetivo e as redes sociais, sendo que para o primeiro utilizou-se a aplicação de um questionário baseado por Meyer e Allen e o segundo um modelo adaptado do trabalho de Soares (2008)cuja análise foi obtida por meio do Software UCINET 6.0 em paralelo com o NETDRAW. Para a verificação da correlação das redes sociais de informação com o comprometimento organizacional afetivo utilizou-se metodologia quantitativa para criar o instrumento com base em testes MSA e de Alpha de Cronbach. Para verificar a influência das redes no comprometimento fez-se o uso de análises de regressão, teste KMO e de Bartlett´s. Concluiu-se que as variáveis de redes possuem correlação positiva com o comprometimento organizacional afetivo. A partir de uma análise de regressão múltipla, descobriu-se que somente uma possui influência estatística significativa, o que pode ser atribuído ao tamanho da amostra analisada.

O molibdênio (Mo) está associado aos processos de metabolismo do nitrogênio (N) devido a sua participação na formação e na atividade da redutase do nitrato. A deficiência de Mo pode acarretar também deficiência de N, comprometendo o rendimento das culturas. Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito de doses de Mo na produtividade do milho e na concentração de nutrientes nas folhas. Foi utilizado o delineamento experimental em blocos casualizados com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos foram constituídos de seis doses de Mo: 0, 25, 105, 210, 315 e 420 g ha-1. Como fonte de Mo, empregou-se o molibdato de sódio, suspensão concentrada, com 25 % de Mo. Avaliaram-se os teores de nutrientes nas folhas, na época do florescimento, e a produtividade de grãos do milho. Os dados foram submetidos a análises de variância 5 % de significância. Os atributos avaliados não se modificaram com as doses de Mo. A ausência de resposta à aplicação de Mo foliar pode ser devido às quantidades adequadas do nutriente no solo como também nas sementes.

Published: March 2018

abstract
Node localization is one of the key technologies of wireless sensor networks (WSN). Due to the indoor environment requires a high positioning accuracy, an improved algorithm based on RSSI is put forward. In terms of RSSI ranging, the error correction coefficient received from self-correcting locator beacon nodes, and then had been applied to distance solving from unknown nodes to the beacon nodes. In the choice of weights, the algorithm uses inverse distance and replaces the method of determining the distance and the reciprocal of the weights, and also fixes the weight factor. On the complexity of the algorithm, select one of the most recent four from unknown node to beacon nodes, reducing the amount of data calculation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm positioning accuracy has been greatly improved.

Published: March 2018

abstract
Fermentation is extremely a crucial process which is primarily responsible for tea quality. It is an oxidation process where tea leaves change colour and smell. Relative humidity (RH) and temperature are two important physical parameters which play a crucial role in producing good quality tea. This work is an attempt to develop and implement a monitoring system for fermentation room of tea factory. Due to the larger dimension of the fermentation room, it requires several numbers of monitoring point for estimating average condition. Sensor node at each monitoring point is connected via RS 485 network which works with a protocol developed for this purpose. Each sensor node consists of sensors, signal conditioning, controller and RS485 transceiver. All these nodes are calibrated and the voltage level of RS 485 system is converted to RS 232 voltage level to make compatible with the COM port of the PC. Data acquisition software is developed with the help of NI Lab VIEW.

Published: March 2018

Abstract
Connectivity offers the foundation for achieving required quality of service in all WSN applications. By the concept of cyclic-like topologies proposed and their property proved, we find a new searching method based on cyclic paths on nodes and their combination, which cuts down the cost of ensuring bi-connectivity in this problem. On the basis of graph and probability theory, our centralized connectivity-aware algorithm with cyclic-like topologies and computation of link reachability is proposed. Results of the experiments show that, our topology control algorithm could be more satisfactory than that of another two algorithms in different scales of networks.

A Framework For “Energy-Saving Strategies”: Utilization of A cue Offering Interface
Authors: Kishi Yasutaka , Ito Kyoko , Nishida Shogo 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Mass consumption of energy is a big problem. Energy-saving activities which are a solution to this problem have been attracting a lot of attention. Nevertheless, in order to engage in thorough energy-saving activities, consumers need support; on the other hand, even with support, the effects seem to be only temporary. In this paper, to obtain a long-term effect, we focus on developing a method to raise consumers’ awareness about energy-saving behavior. To this end, we designed an interface which offers consumers the cue to think about energy-saving activities and conducted a 2week-experiment using the interface with 10 participants. The results suggest two things. First, offering cues increases the number of the energy-saving activities. Second, the more times they perform an activity, the less likely it is that they will change their way of thinking about the activity as time passes. We discuss a more effective method of helping consumers create energy-saving strategies.

Authors: Lu Yan Hong , Zhang Ming 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), node’s locations play a critical role in many applications. Having a GPS receiver on every sensor node is costly. In this paper, we propose an adaptive mobile anchor localization algorithm based on ant colony optimization, firstly, some virtual anchor nodes are distributed in the area, second, ant colony was used which has the maximum of transition probabilities to obtain the optimal path, last, the centroid-weighted localization algorithm was proposed to locate the position of unknown nodes. Simulation results show that the localization accuracy of the proposed algorithm is better than the traditional centroid algorithm, the more number of anchor nodes, namely, the density is bigger, the position errors is smaller. Under the same anchor nodes, the more number of unknown nodes, the position errors is smaller and the overall trend is downward.
Eigenvector Centrality: Illustrations Supporting the Utility of Extracting More Than One Eigenvector to Obtain Additional Insights into Networks and Interdependent Structures
Authors: Iacobucci Dawn , McBride Rebecca , Popovich Deidre L. 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Among the many centrality indices used to detect structures of actors’ positions in networks is the use of the first eigenvector of an adjacency matrix that captures the connections among the actors. This research considers the seeming pervasive current practice of using only the first eigenvector. It is shows that, as in other statistical applications of eigenvectors, subsequent vectors can also contain illuminating information. Several small examples, and Freeman’s EIES network, are used to illustrate that while the first eigenvector is certainly informative, the second (and subsequent) eigenvector(s) can also be equally tractable and informative.
Setting up a water quality ensemble forecast for coastal ecosystems: a case study of the southern North Sea
Authors: Mészáros Lőrinc , El Serafy Ghada 
Published: March 2018

Abstract
Prediction systems, such as the coastal ecosystem models, often incorporate complex non-linear ecological processes. There is an increasing interest in the use of probabilistic forecasts instead of deterministic forecasts in cases where the inherent uncertainties in the prediction system are important. The primary goal of this study is to set up an operational ensemble forecasting system for the prediction of the Chlorophyll-a concentration in coastal waters, using the Generic Ecological Model. The input ensemble is generated from perturbed model process parameters and external forcings through Latin Hypercube Sampling with Dependence. The forecast performance of the ensemble prediction is assessed using several forecast verification metrics that can describe the forecast accuracy, reliability and discrimination. The verification is performed against in-situ measurements and remote sensing data. The ensemble forecast moderately outperforms the deterministic prediction at the coastal in-situ measurement stations. The proposed ensemble forecasting system is therefore a promising tool to provide enhanced water quality prediction for coastal ecosystems which, with further inclusion of other uncertainty sources, could be used for operational forecasting.

AbstractThe streams in a watershed form a hierarchical network system. From the perspective of the river continuum, this classification system is the result of gradual increase in traffic. This study analyzed the riparian species richness, diversity and environmental factors along a six-order hierarchical mountain river in the Donghe watershed, China. A total of 34 sampling sites were sampled to study the spatial distribution of riparian plants among different stream orders. The results showed: Environmental factors among stream orders had significant differences. Among stream order, species richness showed remarkable differences. The species richness rose firstly and dropped afterwards except for tree species richness; tree species richness decreased while stream order increased. The same is true for shrub quadrat species richness. Shannon-Wiener diversity, Simpson dominance and Pielou uniformity showed significant difference among stream orders; Shannon-Wiener diversity rose firstly then dropped afterwards. For integrated environmental factors and community characteristics, we found the changes of stream orders had a significant impact on riparian habitats and riparian vegetation. Further analysis showed that riparian vegetation experienced different types and degrees of disturbance in different stream orders. This meant that a hierarchical management strategy should be applied to riparian vegetation management.

O SENSO COMUM DE INFORMAÇÃO: QUESTÕES OPORTUNAS
Authors: Gonzalez Marcos 
Published: March 2018

Problematizamos o conceito de informação, sob a perspectiva da Linguística Sociocognitiva, em especial da teoria da metáfora conceptual e da teoria dos frames semânticos, a fim de verificar se a terminologia predominante da Ciência da Informação (CI) é próxima do “senso comum”, como querem alguns autores da área. De fato, pudemos descrever o esquema cognitivo em que o conceito de informação é produtivo. Identificamos um componente da metáfora do canal, a metáfora INFORMAÇÃO É CONTEÚDO, capaz de confirmar a suspeita dos epistemólogos da CI e ir além: ela revela uma maneira mecânica de “falar sobre comunicação” que é de um “senso comum” desde há muitos séculos. Qual “senso comum”? Argumentando que a metáfora INFORMAÇÃO É CONTEÚDO faz mais sentido no contexto da comunicação escrita do que na falada, sugerimos uma revisão crítica dos efeitos que o letramento em massa aos seis anos poderia estar provocando na mentalidade ocidental: ao valorizar a escrita, tecnologia fundamental para a sustentabilidade das “sociedades da informação”, estaremos negligenciando a oralidade e, em consequência, negando nossa humanidade? THE COMMONSENSE OF INFORMATION: TEMPESTIVE QUESTIONSAbstractWe problematize the concept of information, from the perspective of socio-cognitive linguistics, especially that from the conceptual metaphor and semantic frames theories, in order to check whether the prevailing terminology of the Information Science (IS) is close to the “commonsense”, as some authors whish. In fact, we describe a cognitive scheme in which the concept of information is productive. A component of the conduit metaphor, INFORMATION IS CONTENT, seems to confirm the suspicion of IS epistemologists and more: it reveals a mechanical way to “speek about communication” that is a “commonsense” for centuries. Which “commonsense”? Arguing that the metaphor INFORMATION IS CONTENT makes more sense in the context of written language than in spoken one, we suggest a critical review of the effects that mass literacy at age six could be causing in Western mind: giving prestige to the writing language, a key technology for the sustainability of “information societies”, are we neglecting orality and therefore denying our humanity?
