Authors: Muttaqin Ahmad 
Published: January 2018

Prior to reading this paper, it is important to realize that hadis as source of islamic teachings has been expressed on cultural varieties. This aims to explore how the Bugis society views both the meaning of Maulid (prophetic birthday celebration) and the reading of Bugis-barzanji and to analyze the acculturation between both islamic teaching and Bugis culture on reading the Barzanji in Maulid. This research uses acculturational concept to explore deeply and briefly how islamic teaching and local tradition produce the new religious cultural practices. This concludes that first, barzanji in Bugis society is one of religious cultural practices regarded as secred tradition excepting in Maulid. Second, the Bugis-barzanji read on maulid celebration in order that society are able to understand easily the barzanji containing sīrah nabawiyyah (prophetic history) is one of living-hadis phenomena.
MENYOAL KEMBALI PERKAWINAN DI BAWAH TANGAN (NIKAH SIRRI) DI INDONESIA
Authors: Abdullah Nafilah 
Published: January 2018

All people who enter the gates of family life through marriages intend to achieve a prosperous and harmonious family life and receive blessing in this world and the next. Marriages must therefore be done in accordance with religious law. A marriage is legal if conducted in accordance with one’s religion, and must be recorded in the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA). Marriages which are not recorded by authorized officials are sirri marriages, and are contrary to legislation. Furthermore, its harm can be seen from its consequence, the lack of legal certainty between husband and wife and the children. This entails the legal consequence that sirri marriages do not have a Marital Deed and children borne of such marriage receive no government recognition, and are considered children born out of wedlock, only having civil relations with the mother and the mother’s family. The wife and children abandoned by a biological father cannot take legal action for the fulfillment of their economic rights or for joint marital assets.
MENGURAI BENANG KUSUT DUALISME NIKAH SIRRI (Upaya Meratifikasi Rancangan Undang-Undang Nikah Sirri)
Authors: Suhaeri Suhaeri 
Published: January 2018

The emergence of the Draft Bill on the Religious Judiciary Material Law on Marriage -otherwise known with the Draft Bill on Sirri Marriage- has brought a lengthy polemic debate. This issue essentially rests on a legal matter, the duality of Sirri marriages; which are legal according to Islamic law but illegal according to formal law (national civil law). This led many actors to disregard the need for the ratification of the Draft Bill, where in fact the Draft Bill’s ratification intends to uphold justice. This shows that there is a faulty perception by society in understanding Islamic law’s position on Sirri marriages. Therefore, this article will attempt to rectify society’s understanding on Sirri marriage through the fiqh approach. The conclusion which may be drawn are that Sirri marriages contain two harms (kemafsadatan) at the same time (adultery and harming others). According to fiqh, when a choice exists between two harms, the avoidance of the greater should be chosen. In this case, the greater harm comes from harming wives and children in Sirri marriages. Therefore, good muslims should not conduct Sirri marriages. The reality whereby many Sirri marriages are still conducted shows the need for legal enforcement through the ratification of the Draft Bill.

Abstract
We consider Dirichlet elliptic equations driven by the sum of a p-Laplacian

Published: January 2018

Abstract
High Performance Computing (HPC) accelerates life science discoveries by enabling scientists to analyze large data sets, to develop detailed models of entire biological systems and to simulate complex biological processes. As computational experiments, molecular dynamics simulations are widely used in life sciences to evaluate the equilibrium nature of classical many-body systems The modelling and molecular dynamics study of surfactant, polymer solutions and the stability of proteins and nucleic acids under different conditions, as well as deoxyribonucleic acid proteins are studied. The study aims to understand the scaling behavior of Gromacs (Groningen machine for chemical simulations) on various platforms, and the maximum performance in the prospect of energy consumption that can be accomplished by tuning the hardware and software parameters. Different system sizes (48K, 64K, and 272K) from scientific investigations have been studied show that the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) scales rather beneficial than other resources, i.e., with GPU support. We track 2-3 times speedup compared to the latest multi-core CPUs. However, the so-called “threading effect” leads to the better results.

Published: January 2018

AbstractBackground:We sought to evaluate the role of soluble ST2 (suppression of tumorigenicity) serum concentrations in polytraumatized patients and its potential role as biomarker for pulmonary complications.Methods:We included severely injured patients (injury severity score≥16) admitted to our level I trauma center and analyzed serum samples obtained on the day of admission and on day 2. Furthermore, patients with isolated thoracic injury and healthy probands were included and served as control groups. Serum samples were analyzed for soluble ST2 concentrations with a commercially available ELISA kit.Results:A total of 130 patients were included in the present study. Five patients with isolated thoracic injury and eight healthy probands were further included. Serum analyses revealed significantly elevated concentrations of soluble ST2 in polytraumatized patients compared to patients suffering from isolated thoracic trauma and healthy probands. In polytraumatized patients who developed pulmonary complications (acute respiratory distress syndrome and pneumonia) and in patients who died, significantly higher serum concentrations of soluble ST2 were found on day 2 (p<0.001). Serum concentrations of soluble ST2 on day 2 were of prognostic value to predict pulmonary complications in polytraumatized patients (area under the curve=0.720, 95% confidence interval=0.623–0.816). Concomitant thoracic trauma had no further impact on serum concentrations of soluble ST2.Conclusions:Serum concentrations of soluble ST2 are upregulated following polytrauma. Increased concentrations were associated with worse outcome.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to assess the effect of a sodium salt 3-(2-oxo-3-phenyl- 2H-[1,2,4]triazine[2,3-c]quinazolin-6-yl) of propanoic acid (MT-279 compound) on physical endurance of rats under conditions of chronic hypokinesia (15 days) in comparison with 2-ethylthiobenzimidazole hydrobromide (2-ETBI). The results of the conducted experiment showed that chronic hypokinesia (15 days) caused a progressive decrease in the physical endurance of animals. The signs of this phenomenon occurred already on the Day 7 of the experiment. It manifested by a significant decrease in the duration of rats swimming, treadmill runtime and holding on rotating rods (rotarod test). The course of MT-279 compound (2.5 mg/kg, ip) administered to animals in the specified experimental conditions contributed to restoration of physical performance of the study subjects. Upon introduction of the compound, the duration of rats` swimming on Day 7 of the experiment increased by 108.2%, and on Day 15 - by 64.2%. Administration of 2-ETBI caused the growth of this indicator by 70.5% and 24.2%, respectively. Along with this, we revealed an increase of rats` treadmill running time. On Day 7 and Day 15 of the experiment, we recorded 55.2% and 68.4% growth of the indicator, respectively. Daily administration of 2-ETBI contributed to 41.7% and 59.7% increase of running time, respectively. On Day 7 of MT-279 compound administration under the conditions of chronic hypokinesia, the duration of rats` rod retention time increased by 58.7% compared to 6.2% for 2-ETBI. On Day 15 of the experiment, the physical endurance of animals assessed under this test compared to the control group was 89.0% and 72.3%, respectively. On Day 7, MT-279 compound was significantly superior to the comparator drug in all tests performed for assessment of the ability to improve physical endurance under conditions of chronic hypokinesia. On Day 15 of study, the statistically significant superiority of MT-279 compound over 2-ETBI was identified in all forced swimming and rotarod tests.

Published: January 2018

Abstract
Adenomatosis is a rare lesion of unknown etiology, defined as multiple (usually 5 or more) adenomas in one kidney. A case of renal adenomatosis in a 68-year-old woman treated previously for urolithiasis, who underwent nephrectomy because of the nonfunctional left kidney is reported. Apart from multiple adenomas, numerous hyperplastic lesions involving single tubules were present in the resected kidney. Both adenomas and hyperplastic lesions exhibited the expression of alpha-methylacyl-coenzyme A racemase (AMACR). Renal adenomatosis is worth special attention, since renal papillary adenomas are suggested as precursor lesions of papillary renal cell carcinoma that show similar AMACR expression.

Published: January 2018

SummaryMonilinia laxa Aderh. and Ruhl. is the predominant causal agent of brown rot disease of stone fruit orchards, especially sweet cherries. The objective of this study was to identify reaction in response of nine genotypes cherry, with different pomological properties, against brown rot. These genotypes were harvested at commercial maturity from orchard in the Fruit Research Institute in Rimski Šančevi. The studied genotypes showed significant differences in terms of the occurrence of disease on fruits, both under artificial inoculation and infection in the field. Given the fact that sweet cherry fruits are prone to infection by a number of pathogens in the field, biochemical parameters were analysed on artificially inoculated fruits. Biochemical analysis of fruits determined significant differences in contents of total phenols, flavonoids and anthocyanins, as well as in antioxidant activity. It was genotype specificities and intensity of infection, as well as the interaction of the two that induced differences in the secondary biomolecules content and antioxidant activity. The majority of the genotypes examined showed high polyphenolics content, while under the infection, the content was significantly lower. Based on the results obtained, the secondary metabolites content can be used as one of the parameters for evaluating the resistance of sweet cherry genotypes to brown rot.
The Role of Public-Private Partnerships in Higher Education How Tertiary Institutions in emerging Economies benefit from Public-Private Partnerships
Authors: Warasthe Ronak 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
The number of Public-Private Partnerships in the education sector is growing in developing and emerging economies. Traditionally governments are the main financial contributor to education however, the involvement of the private sector is an increasing one. While more established in primary and secondary education, PPPs in tertiary education are a phenomenon rather slowly growing in the past decades (Patrinos, Barrera-Osorio, & Guaqueta, 2009). There are various concepts of PPPs in higher education each targeting different goals. In order to give an insight into different types of PPPs, the typology according to Mabizela has been briefly displayed and the case of a PPP in Namibia is given. The framework of the partnership was compiled to give an outlook on the practicability of partnerships. The paper exemplifies that both partners within a PPP can benefit from the added value they may generate for their target group. Thus, the benefit depends on quality, relevance and execution of the partnership.
Job matching as a new challenge for work performance
Authors: Velciu Magdalena 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
In actual challenging environment, progress and growth is more than an economic issue and it involve human capital, development of human resources in terms of knowledge, skills, and competences. The workforce offer and demand is not sufficient to make progress but we need a concept that bring together skills, competency, jobs and productivity that drive economic growth. From the perspective of this paper, we deal with job mismatch as a qualitative imbalance that occurs when the characteristics of workers (level of education, qualification, skills) are not in direct relation with the work requirements, with accent on education requirements. I present some analytical highlights on education-job mismatch at European level and in Romania. Education requirements of jobs vary across countries. In Romania, almost 60% of adult employees, consider medium level of qualification is sufficient to do the job. Remarcable is that the procent is the highest amoung all responders from European countries. The subject have great importance to improve the matching as equilibrium between educational offer for developing skills, competences, knowledge with occupational requirements coming from changing business environment.
Research on the possibility of improving technical higher education through the parties involved in the Bologna Process
Authors: Oțel Călin Ciprian , Firescu Violeta 
Published: January 2018

AbstractThrough this paper, the authors have propose to briefly illustrate the shift from the “approach of knowledge as a product” to the “approach of knowledge as a process”, conducted through the Bologna Process in technical higher education. In this latter approach, the emphasis is on student rather than on teacher, as it is in the case of traditional higher education. The applied research was conducted at the Satu-Mare Branch of the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca through the project “Specialists for Satu-Mare” and the survey was used as method and the questionnaire as tool. The information gathered through the questionnaires distributed to both parties involved: students and teachers were analyzed. The aim of the research is to identify possible malfunctions and to propose recommendations for improving interactions in the educational process. The most important findings are: the need for the learning process to transfer especially practical knowledge and the promotion of “Professor Bologna's portrait” among teachers obtained as a result of applied research.
Challenges of scaling-up process for start-ups
Authors: Zajko Marian 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
Start-up is just a beginning phase of a company life cycle followed by the growth or scaling phase where the growth potential of start-up can develop into a high-growth company bringing revenues, well-paid jobs and taxes. The purpose of the paper is to analyse the essence of scaling up and the relevant external and internal factors for successful scaling up. The research method consists in analysis of internal and external conditions for successful scaling up and related support policies in the EU and Slovakia based on the secondary survey data and relevant publications. The findings about the Slovak start-up ecosystem confirm the relevance of risks of scaling up for the Slovak startups too. Therefore next to the improving of the start-up ecosystem the Slovak policy makers should develop systematic support measures for the scale-up ecosystem in Slovakia based on appropriate scale up metrics and incentives for support of start-ups in order to achieve a higher proportion of gazelles in the economy.

Authors: Ioanid Alexandra , Deselnicu Dana Corina , Militaru Gheorghe 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
The basics of product and service branding are generally the same. However, creating a brand for a company that offers services requires more effort because the services are hard to visualize and each client has different expectations. More than promoting any of the services, branding aims to create a perception of trust so that the brand name to be associated with integrity, quality, and innovation. The purpose of this paper is to determine how entrepreneurs develop their service-based business through social networks branding and also what are the benefits obtained from each method. The authors have researched previously what is the impact of social network marketing on business development and noticed that service-based businesses tend to obtain benefits from different activities comparing to product-based businesses. The authors researched through a semistructured questionnaire the online activities of 71 SMEs from Bucharest that offer various types of services to their customers. The results obtained are then correlated with the online and offline performance of the company.

Implementing A Low Cost Data Acquisition System for Engineering Education Programs in Universities
Authors: Rei Silviu 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
For many educational engineering projects running in Universities, a data acquisition system is a key component. Buying a system from the market is a viable option but many times the cost of it is prohibitive for the low budgets of University projects. This paper investigates the idea of implementing an own data acquisition system with use in small educational projects. Together with the advantage of cost reduction, an own implementation is an engineering exercise in itself, providing learning opportunities for the student. The paper presents first the results of a market scan for development platforms which can be used and then an example implementation of a simple data acquisition system using a low cost development platform. The performance of the implemented system is measured and presented. The main purpose of this paper is to encourage students and young researchers to implement their own tools, using this learning experiences along the way of meeting the project targets.

Affective Iconoclasm: Codes of Labour as a Human Characteristic
Authors: Gronlund Melissa 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
This text argues that a number of recent works of contemporary art have developed an anthropomorphised code to signal “humanness.” Primary within this code is representations of labour, which the artworks connect to mimetic or realist stylisation as well as to the history of image production and often specifically Western art-making. It elaborates this thesis with regards to recent videos by Pierre Huyghe and Sidsel Meineche Hansen, and at a critique of social media labour in a lecture-performance by Jesse Darling, which all draw a link between human and non-human subjectivities and economic productivity. In focusing on different examples of nonhuman likenesses, the text also uses primatology to suggest that the colonial relationship between labour and species and racial hierarchies continues to colour representations of labour today.
To the Origins of American Archaeology in the Czech Lands: The Case of Julius Nestler
Authors: Křížová Markéta 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
The basis for the present article is the case study of Julius Nestler, amateur archaeologist from Prague, who at the beginning of the twentieth century pursued excavations in the ruins of Tiahuanaco and brought to Prague a unique collection of about 3,600 pieces, deposited now in the Náprstek Museum in Prague. His activities are put into the broader context of the origins of Americanist archaeology and anthropology in Central Europe, against a background of nationalist competition and economic entrepreneurship. The life story of Nestler also brings to the fore the problem of ethics in anthropological and archaeological work.
