The Management System for Professional Certification Institution in Higher Education prepares students for work. Professional Certification Institution also promotes competency certification as a means of student competency recognition. Studying the competency certification mechanism at Professional Certification Institutions-P1 in Higher Education is necessary. This study examined the advantages and disadvantages of Professional Certification Institution-P1 management in higher education. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. The subjects of this study were the Professional Certification Institution-P1 Head, Certification Manager, and Quality Manager. Research data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using triangulation to provide valid data. An interactive analysis model analyzed triangulated data (Interactive model analysis). While, Interviews, observations, and documentation provided a general description of the Professional Certification Institution's competence certification mechanism, which follows professional certification body number 04/BNSP.305/ X/2013 concerning the test guidelines. In addition, higher education institutions are developing Professional Certification Institution management by increasing the number and quality of assessors for competency test activities and certification schemes. The National Education Education Standards Agency (BNSP) guidelines and university leaders' support have guided management's advantages and disadvantages. The Professional Certification Institution-P1 needs to conduct more socialization on students for competency test participation. Thus, it can be concluded that this study shows that East Java universities generally follow National Education Standards Agency guidelines for managing Professional Certification Institutions.

Authors: Báez-Martínez Sheila , Gallur-Santorum Santiago 
Published: September 2023

Varias ciudades de Latinoamérica y el Caribe, incluida la República Dominicana, se han considerado como paraísos sexuales, espacios que también se prestan para la explotación sexual comercial infantil. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la percepción de actores clave gubernamentales y no gubernamentales acerca de la explotación sexual comercial infantil en contextos turísticos en la Republica Dominicana. El estudio se enmarca en el paradigma positivista, es de alcance descriptivo, con enfoque cuantitativo, de diseño no experimental, de campo, transversal. Se aplicó una encuesta de opinión autoadministrada, anónima, compuesta por 15 reactivos, a una muestra no probabilística de 100 agentes gubernamentales y no gubernamentales que abordan el fenómeno en diferentes provincias del país. Como resultados relevantes se destacan los siguientes: (i) contradicción entre la percepción de existencia de suficiente debate nacional sobre el fenómeno de la explotación sexual comercial infantil frente a la percepción de ineficiencia de las respuestas de instituciones gubernamentales y no gubernamentales para contrarrestar el fenómeno ; (ii) percepción de existencia de un marco jurídico nacional que garantiza de manera adecuada los derechos de niños, niñas y adolescentes, frente a la percepción de pocas denuncias y sentencias condenatorias del delito. Se concluye que la mayoría de los representantes de instituciones gubernamentales y no gubernamentales reconoce la existencia de la explotación sexual comercial infantil en contextos turísticos en la República Dominicana, así como la inefectividad de las intervenciones implementadas para su abordaje.
THE CONCEPT OF FRANCHISING IN THE INDONESIAN’S CIVIL LAW AND ISLAM
Authors: Iwandi Iwandi , Efendi Rustam , Fahmi Chairul 
Published: September 2023

The franchise concept is an agreement between the franchisor and the franchisee. This means that the franchisor, as the patent owner of the trademark, has the right to receive a certain amount of royalties or fees to be paid by the franchisee based on legal provisions. Franchise agreements are regulated in Indonesian civil law with regard to special rights to trademarks. While in Islamic law, the franchise agreement is actually a development of a form of cooperation (syirkah). This research uses the library research method, where data sources come from laws and other secondary data. The results of this study indicate that a franchise agreement under civil law, which refers to Article 4 of Government Regulation No. 42 of 2007 on Franchising, states that every franchise agreement of any kind must be made in writing by the parties. The existence of a franchise agreement is an innominaat contract. Innominaat contracts are contracts that arise, grow and develop in practice. From the perspective of Shari'ah economic law, franchise agreements belong to the group of shirkah (partnership) and the law is permissible. In addition, the franchise agreement involves the cooperating parties, namely the franchisor and the franchisee. Meanwhile, the franchisor's capital consists of intellectual rights in the form of company names, logos, systems and methods, which are owned and developed by the franchisor.

Authors: Sadik M. , Muhammad Nuzha , Ridwan Muh. , Sakinah Sakinah 
Published: September 2023

This research examines sibaliparri in terms of fiqh and the culture of Mandar people. It applies qualitative descriptive research which is obtained based on the result of interview of some leaders and Mandar people from various professions and relevant sources. The result of this research states that sibaliparri is one concept of Mandar cultural values which is firmly intimate on society. This image means the concept of togetherness, mutual cooperation also equality in all fields including household life at a time. The implementation of sibaliparri values in household life of Mandar people can be in the picture of understanding, loving each other, mutual cooperation, and sincerity for example when a wife gives a birth then a husband takes over the household matters. Sibaliparri values related to family welfare are reflected in various fields, namely education, home economics, decision making, religious life, and health. Al-Qur’an is a principle and guide about justice which covers various recommendations to enforce economic justice, cultural politic and gender. In general, Al-Qur’an desires women not to be complementary creature and be the second position compared to men. Al-Qur’an provides guide clearly that all humans are equal and not different in terms of gender instead of the level of loyalty and piety. Other hadiths give women more respect than men and argue that women are domestic creatures but their position is fair and proportional, meaning that in certain circumstances men and women have different roles according to their needs and suitability.
Community's role in preventing child marriage: An analysis of models and community compliance with village policies
Authors: Mahmuddin Mahmuddin , Mansari Mansari , Melayu Hasnul Arifin 
Published: September 2023

The presence of regulations that regulate the increase in the age of children fails to prevent child marriage. However, the existence of a community with an adequate child protection system has been able to prevent child marriage. This study aims to analyse the model developed by the community and the background to the emergence of community initiatives in efforts to prevent child marriage. The research method used in this study is a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach. Data was obtained by interviewing Reje Kampung, community facilitators, and NGO program officers. The research was conducted in Bener Meriah Regency. Data analysis was carried out qualitatively by selecting relevant data and then describing it systematically. The results showed that the model for preventing child marriage was carried out by forming a Cadre of Friends of Women and Children (SAPA), which is responsible for disseminating child protection issues. Second, establish a children's forum at the gampong level as a pioneer and reporter for child protection that continues to report on any incidents that affect children. Third, formulate regulations and policies in the village as guidelines for the community. The emergence of a child marriage prevention community was due to support from PKPM Aceh on the basis of support from UNICEF, which strengthened the issue of child protection from the roots (community) from 2022–2023. The community is strengthened by the issue of child protection and trains SAPA Cadres as the spearhead of fulfilling the rights of women and children in the village.

Computing the ecRad radiation scheme with half-precision arithmetic
Authors: Pershin Anton , Chantry Matthew , Dueben Peter Dominik , Hogan Robin J , Palmer Tim 
Published: September 2023

Numerical simulations of weather and climate models are conventionally
carried out using double-precision floating-point numbers throughout the
vast majority of the code. At the same time, the urgent need of
high-resolution forecasts given limited computational resources
encourages development of much more efficient numerical codes. A number
of recent studies has suggested the use of reduced numerical precision,
including half-precision floating-point numbers increasingly supported
by hardware, as a promising avenue. In this paper, the possibility of
using half-precision calculations in the radiation scheme ecRad
operationally used in the ECMWF’s Integrated Forecasting System (IFS).
By deliberately mixing half-, single- and double-precision variables, we
develop a mixed-precision version of the Tripleclouds solver, the most
computationally demanding part of the radiation scheme, where
reduced-precision calculations are emulated by a Fortran software rpe.
By employing two tools that estimate the dynamic range of model
parameters and identify problematic areas of the model code using
ensemble statistics, the code variables were assigned particular
precision levels.
It is demonstrated that heating rates computed by the mixed-precision
code are reasonably close to those produced by the double-precision
code. Moreover, it is shown that using the mixed-precision ecRad in
OpenIFS has a very limited impact on the accuracy of a medium-range
forecast in comparison to the original double-precision
configuration. These results imply that mixed-precision arithmetic could
successfully be used to accelerate the radiation scheme ecRad and,
possibly, other parametrization schemes used in weather and climate
models without harming the forecast accuracy.
Bilecik’in Fethinin Osmanlı Kuruluş Tarihi Açısından Önemi
Authors: ARIKAN Refik 
Published: September 2023

Osmanlı Devleti’nin kuruluşu üzerine yapılan araştırmalarda öne çıkan en belirgin sorun, kaynak yetersizliğidir. Nitekim Osmanlı’nın dâhili münasebetlerini anlatan ilk eserlerin (kroniklerin) XV. yüzyılda yazılmaya başlanması ve bu dönemde Batı Anadolu’daki diğer iktidar oluşumları (beylikler) arasında büyük bir ağırlığının olmaması, bu bilgi eksikliğinin temel sebepleri olarak sıralanabilir.
Birincil kaynakların satır aralarından edinilen bilgilerin yanı sıra kuruluş coğrafyasında yapılan saha araştırmaları, Osmanlı Tarihi’ne yeni bir açılımı da vaat etmektedir. Nitekim bugün Halil İnalcık Hoca’nın çalışmalarından bahsedilirken onun sahaya inmiş olmasına sıklıkla vurgu yapılır. Bu çalışma, aynı noktadan ilham alarak ve saha araştırmalarına ağırlık vererek hazırlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada Osmanlı kronikleri ve alan yazını ile ilgili yayımlanmış eserlere başvurulmuş ve nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden saha araştırmasının doğrudan gözlem metodu kullanılmıştır.
Bilecik ve çevresinde uzun bir süre boyunca gerçekleştirdiğim alan incelemeleri sırasında rastladığım kale kalıntıları, bu makalenin temelini oluşturmuştur. Bu çalışma bölgedeki tekfurların Bilecik-Çakırpınarı’nda gerçekleştirilen düğünde Osman Bey’i ortadan kaldırmak için neden bir plan içerisinde olduklarının cevabını da aramaktadır. Aynı zamanda bu makale ile Osman Bey’in iktidarının ilk dönemine dair siyasi hareketlerini yürüttüğü coğrafya ve kroniklerde bahsi geçen önemli mekânlarla ilgili de saha gözlemleri temel alınarak bir takım tespitler yapılmıştır.
Experimental evaluation of the nonselective and selective TMEM16 family calcium-activated chloride channel blockers in the airways
Authors: Mažerik J. , Smieško L. , Fedorová L. , Gondáš E. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract

Background
The family of calcium-activated chloride channels, TMEM16, plays a significant role in contributing to the pathogenesis of airway inflammatory diseases. Targeting these ion channels and aiming to modulate them may provide an interesting new approach to the therapy of these potentially fatal diseases.

Methods
We tested this hypothesis in both healthy and ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized male Dunkin-Hartley guinea pigs. The ion channel activity was modulated by TMEM16A-nonselective (benzbromarone) and TMEM16A-selective blockers (CaCCinh-A01). In vivo airway reactivity, induced by histamine and methacholine, was expressed as specific airway resistance (sRaw) values. The number of citric acid-induced coughs was counted using a double-chambered body plethysmograph, and the frequency of ciliary beating (CBF) was assessed in vitro by brushing method. For comparison, salbutamol and codeine were tested under the same conditions.

Results
The results showed significant differences in the responses of unsensitized and sensitized airways to both TMEM16 blockers administered. CaCCinh-A01 and benzbromarone significantly reduced the number of cough efforts in the group of OVA-sensitized guinea pigs. Significant improvement in sRaw values could be observed in OVA-sensitized TMEM16 blocker–treated animals compared to salbutamol when challenged with inhalational histamine, and the outcome was similar to salbutamol when challenged with methacholine. CBF was significantly inhibited in animals sensitized to OVA treated with selective inhibition of TMEM16A.

Conclusions
The results demonstrated that treatment with blockers of TMEM16 can reduce both cough effort and sRaw, and the difference between TMEM16A-selective and TMEM16A-nonselective blocking is only negligibly in favor of CaCCinh-A01. It is also worthwhile to note the impairment of CBF in OVA-sensitized animals treated with CaCCinh-A01.
Hybrid Generation of Existing Wind Power Plants with Additional Installation of Photovoltaic Power Plants
Authors: Mrković Dragan , Perić Perica , Marić Božidar 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The paper describes the possibility of hybrid electricity generation in already existing wind power plants (WPP) by additional installation of photovoltaic power plants (PVPP) on individual wind turbines (WT). Wind turbines have the lowest generation of electricity in the summer months, while PVPPs have the opposite, the highest generation in those months. Connecting the PVPP to the existing WT (hybrid electricity generation) brings a more even generation and a greater degree of use of the infrastructure of the existing wind farms (HV/MV transformer station, medium voltage cable distribution...). This way the variation of generation in relation to the average annual generation is reduced, which reduces the problems of balancing electricity.
US-China Economic Statecraft: Turning Cold War into Negotiation
Authors: Rogowsky Robert A. , Hout Thomas 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The trajectory of US economic strength relative to China has driven a reassessment of the US’ rules of engagement on trade and investment. China is turning more authoritarian, more focused on self-sufficiency, challenging US dominance in international institutions, global markets, and critical technologies. It selectively honors the market-based rules of the international trade order. Structural features of the Chinese economy and its management blunt the effectiveness of international rules-based trade policy tools. The US, in response, is becoming more aggressive, with protective trade measures and proactive industrial policy. A new cold war is emerging, confounding the broad foundation of collaborative interdependence that vastly accelerating world economic growth for the past 35 years. This paper examines the nature of these shifts and the need for and scope of more constructive economic statecraft by both the US and China in order to build a workable, new rules-based framework for managing international competition and trade that is acceptable to both countries. It contributes a path toward more constructive long-term negotiation as an alternative to an economic cold war.
Long-Term Economic and Geopolitical Cycles: A Compass to Multilateral Cooperation in Our Age
Authors: Matolcsy György H 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The birth of modern economics was strongly related to the study of cycles. Economists tried to establish historical cycles, then business cycles and to model even very short-term fluctuations. In the 2000s, the “great moderation” brought about a temporary decline in the interest for longer-term cyclical issues. This was also related to the unipolar moment of US power after the fall of the Soviet Union. The 2008 great financial crisis and the rise of China, however, proved that cycles had not ceased to affect us. The contrary is true: just now, we are witnessing (at least) a rerun of the 1970s with all the implications of energy shocks and geopolitical tensions. Several authors again try to understand cycles; nevertheless, there is a scarcity of studies merging cultural, economic and geopolitical knowledge in this regard. The paper aims to fill this gap by discussing possible interpretations of the current great power dynamics. A complex analysis shows that downward spirals of hegemonic cycles can be escaped. Eurasia as a deep-rooted concept can further catalyse global development and the much-needed cooperative policies towards long-term sustainable growth. The East and the West should be focused on benchmarking the best solutions in the fields of technology, money and the green transition so that a fusion of megatrends benefits each community.
Spindle Cell Carcinoma of the Breast in a Patient with Previous History of Rectal Cancer: A Case Report
Authors: Al-Mallah Rasha Raed , Al-Najafi Marwa Haitham , Zakaria Yehya Dh. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract

Background
Spindle cell carcinoma of the breast is a very rare subtype of metaplastic breast cancer with aggressive behaviour in comparison with invasive ductal carcinoma, which is the most common histological type of breast cancer. It has a poor prognosis and a controversial response to systemic therapy.

Aim of this study
The aim of this study is to shed light on this uncommon but aggressive type of breast cancer.

Case Presentation
In this case report, we present a 56-year-old woman with spindle cell carcinoma of the breast with a previous history of treated rectal cancer. She presented with a left breast mass. Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration gave results positive for malignancy. A left mastectomy with axillary clearance was done, and the histopathology was spindle cell carcinoma of the breast. The patient refused chemotherapy until five months post-operation when she presented with local recurrence of two small masses at the site of mastectomy. New imaging revealed bilateral pulmonary metastasis. She started on single agent Adriamycin and received a total of six cycles. A CT scan of the chest and abdomen with contrast revealed disease progression. Imaging of the brain showed brain metastasis. The patient refused any kind of further chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment until she passed away one month later from aspiration pneumonia and its complications.

Conclusion
Metaplastic breast cancer is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer with rapid progression, a high tendency for distant metastases, a poor response to treatment, and a short survival time.
A Perspective on NFTs in the Arts-and-Music Industry*
Authors: Peters Zarja , Cartwright Phillip 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Significant interest in non-fungible tokens (NFTs) as a means of changing the music industry has motivated this investigation. First, a comprehensive literature review (of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats [SWOT]) provides a summary of the benefits and costs associated with the deployment of blockchain- and NFT-based transactions in the music industry. Considerable effort has been devoted to identifying the economic, legal and regulatory benefits and drawbacks of applying the new technology. NFTs may be the final realisation of the digital universe, bringing exclusivity and revenues to the creator economy and the chance to revalue creative work. The technology's drawbacks may exceed its advantages. Navigation within the crypto regulatory landscape is still deemed as exploring uncharted territory. It is further complicated by the fact that it is largely uncertain which legal framework may apply due to the lack of jurisdiction-identifying criteria. Second, quantitative research is conducted as an online survey directed towards two research questions: 1) What is the extent of familiarity and knowledge related to NFTs, as well as perspectives on NFTs as potential disruptors? 2) What is the extent of music creators’ perception of NFT-related opportunities and NFT integration into the music industry? Twenty EU countries were selected for the survey. Respondents answered twenty questions focused largely on demographics, their awareness of NFTs and their perceived potential for disrupting the music industry. It is too early to say whether NFTs will be utilised successfully, especially by independent musicians. The arguments in favour of NFTs are compelling, but there are issues regarding the levels of awareness and competence required for implementation.
