description: I evaluate the potential for the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies in the United States, Argentina, and Venezuela from five angles: existing state, store of value, the unbanked, perceptions and associations, and regulation. The first factor affecting future cryptocurrency adoption is the existing state which consists of the current adoption--current usage within each country--and national currency performance. The second factor is the potential for cryptocurrencies to serve as a store of value asset while considering hyperinflation and correlation with other assets. The third factor is the ability for cryptocurrencies to help the unbanked. The fourth factor is the perceptions and associations that people have surrounding cryptocurrencies. As with any technology, individuals' thoughts and ideas can significantly impact adoption. Finally, the fifth factor is regulation. Regulation can define how people interact with technologies such as cryptocurrencies. After considering each of the five factors, I conclude that in all three nations, cryptocurrency adoption will likely continue. In comparing the potential for adoption between the United States and Argentina and Venezuela, I determine that individuals in Argentina and Venezuela would be more likely to adopt cryptocurrencies than individuals in the United States based on the five factors analyzed.

description: The presence of a finite Berry curvature $\left(Ω\left(k\right)\right)$ leads to anomalous thermal effects. In this letter, we compute the coefficients for the anomalous Nernst effect $\left(ANE\right) $ and its spin analogue, the spin Nernst effect $\left(SNE\right)$ in lead chalcogenide (\textit{PbX}; \textit{X} = S, Se, Te) films. The narrow gapped \textit{PbX} films with a large spin-orbit coupling (\textit{soc}) offer a significant Rashba interaction that gives rise to $ Ω\left(k\right) $ and the attendant anomalous thermal behaviour. In presence of a temperature gradient, the $ ANE $ and $ SNE $ establish a thermal and spin current and are characterized by their respective coefficients which acquire higher values for a stronger Rashba interaction. We further show that an extrinsic \textit{soc} generated by an in-plane electric field offers a gate-like mechanism to control (and turn-off) the anomalous thermal currents. Finally, we conclude by deriving the efficiency of an $ ANE $-driven low-temperature Carnot heat engine and demonstrate that it can be gainfully optimized in systems with a robust intrinsic \textit{soc} resulting in low carrier effective masses.

description: The search for a novel microbial producer of cellulases including a glucose tolerant β-glucosidase is a challenge as most are inhibited by their product glucose. This study aims to screen for cellulolytic fungi using qualitative and quantitative screening methods. Primary screening revealed 34 of 46 fungal isolates with β-glucosidase activity. Eleven and 13 of these also displayed endoglucanase and exoglucanase activities, respectively. During secondary screening, this number was reduced to 26 β-glucosidase producers with 13 also having endoglucanase and exoglucanase activities. Isolate C1 displayed enhanced production of β-glucosidases in the presence of 0.05 M glucose (69% higher activity). Optimisation of growth conditions for β-glucosidase production by one variable at a time experiments improved production for (isolates) PS1 (64%), MB5 (84%), and C2 (69%). Isolate PS1 identified as Chaetomella sp. BBA70074 displayed the highest tolerance to glucose, retaining 10% of β-glucosidase activity in the presence of 0.8 M glucose. Tolerance to glucose increased to 14% when produced under optimal conditions. β-Glucosidase had a molecular weight of 170 kDa with a pH and temperature optima of 6 and 70 °C, respectively. Future studies will include optimisation of the production of the glucose tolerant enzyme by Chaetomella sp. BBA70074.

description: This thesis examines One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez (1967), The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende (1982), and Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquivel (1989). Each story offers commentary regarding the value in deliberately creating confusion through magical realism, as readers must actively work to question the validity of various occurrences and perspectives. As the“father" of the Boom, García Márquez represents an accepted magical realist template, while as Post-Boom authors, Allende and Esquivel deviate from this model on the dimensions of politics, gender, and history. The project offers a framework for understanding how Allende and Esquivel use magical realism to explore Latin American sociopolitical identity in comparison to García Márquez.

description: Sufficient energy resolution is the key issue for the calorimetry in particle and nuclear physics. The calorimeter of the A4 parity violation experiment at MAMI is a segmented calorimeter where the energy of an event is determined by summing the signals of neighbouring channels. In this case the precise matching of the individual modules is crucial to obtain a good energy resolution. We have developped a calibration procedure for our total absorbing electromagnetic calorimeter which consists of 1022 lead fluoride (PbF_2) crystals. This procedure reconstructs the the single-module contributions to the events by solving a linear system of equations, involving the inversion of a 1022 x 1022-matrix. The system has shown its functionality at beam energies between 300 and 1500 MeV and represents a new and fast method to keep the calorimeter permanently in a well-calibrated state.

description: Smart irrigation is a promising tool to optimize irrigation water use but is still faced with challenges related to usability and applicability attributed to several constraints such as high initial costs, complex user interface, poor connectivity, and limited farm coverage. This study aimed at solving these issues through development and testing of a LoRa communication system using a Raspberry Pi 4, LoRa HAT concentrator, and Strega smart valve. The study was conducted at the Makerere University Agricultural Research Institute Kabanyolo (MUARIK) [00°27'06.000" N, 32°03'60.240"]. The system design incorporates Chirpstack open source components including LoRa Network and application server for the scalable and license-free radio operation. A Strega smart valve was connected to the LoRa network server and ensured to be communicating before the system was then tested for the signal strength at two different locations in the site. Two parameters, the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), obtained from the data packets received from the smart valve were compared to provide an analysis of the capability of the system to provide for efficient communication and automation of the drip irrigation. The valve communicated more efficiently and throughout the testing period while at a distance and elevation difference of 402m and 7.6m respectively, as compared to while at a distance and elevation difference of 660m and 8.5m. The reduced disruption in communication was attributed to the fewer obstructions present between the valve and antenna for the former as compared to the latter. The results show that to ensure proper communication between LoRa components, receiving antennas ought to be placed at the highest point in the field. They also illustrate the system’s capability to ensure efficient communication and automation of extensive and small smart irrigation systems as well as agricultural systems. This caters for poor connectivity and limited farm coverage as compared to other existing technologies such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Zigbee. High initial costs are solved for as locally available materials are used in addition to the Chirpstacks application server which provides for the complex user interfaces due to its simplicity which in overall make the LoRa system ideal for Uganda’s current setting.

description: According to the self-expansion model, people increase their positive self-concept content when they form and maintain romantic relationships, and self-expansion is an important predictor of relationship outcomes. Although thought to be universal, no prior research has examined self-expansion among sexual minority individuals. In the current study, sexual minority (N = 226) and heterosexual (N = 104) participants completed measures of self-expansion and relationship outcomes, and sexual minority participants completed measures of sexual minority stress. Overall, sexual minorities reported similar levels of self-expansion as heterosexuals, and sexual minority status did not moderate the association between self-expansion and relationship satisfaction, investments, or quality of alternatives. However, sexual minority status moderated the association between self-expansion and commitment. For sexual minority participants, self-expansion negatively correlated with sexual minority stressors (i.e. internalized homonegativity, concealment, inauthenticity) and moderated the association between internalized homonegativity and relationship satisfaction and commitment, as well as concealment and relationship satisfaction and commitment, such that the negative association between sexual minority stressors and relationship outcomes was weaker in relationships characterized by high (vs. low) levels of self-expansion.

description: Στην παρούσα μεταπτυχιακή διατριβή, εξετάζεται και παρουσιάζεται μέσω βιβλιογραφικής έρευνας μια εισαγωγή στον κόσμο της εικονικής πραγματικότητας και αναλύεται κατά το μεγαλύτερο μέρος ο ορισμός του εικονικού μουσείου και το εύρος του στη σύγχρονη ζωή. Καθώς η κοινωνία έχει προσαρμοστεί στην τεχνολογική εξέλιξη και στην ψηφιακή πραγματικότητα, το εικονικό μουσείο συμβάλει στη διατήρηση και διάδοση της πολιτιστικής κληρονομιάς. Η μελέτη του συγκεκριμένου θέματος χρειάστηκε να ξεκινήσει από τη βασική κατανόηση της εικονικής πραγματικότητας. Εφόσον η εικονική πραγματικότητα ανθίζει σε όλο και περισσότερους τομείς, ο πολιτισμός αποτελεί έναν από τους πιο σημαντικούς πυλώνες που εξελίσσεται. Μέσω του πολιτισμού και συγκεκριμένα μέσω των εικονικών μουσείων μπορεί να δοθεί η δυνατότητα για μία άμεση επαφή του σύγχρονου ανθρώπου που χρησιμοποιεί την τεχνολογία με τον πολιτισμό και την αξία του. Αναμφισβήτητα η χρήση των εικονικών μουσείων, προς το παρόν, θεωρείται συμπληρωματική του φυσικού μουσείου. Θα πρέπει να αναφερθεί πως υπάρχουν τόσο θετικά όσο και αρνητικά στοιχεία από τη χρήση των εικονικών μουσείων. Τα εργαλεία και οι τεχνολογίες που χρησιμοποιούνται για την υλοποίησή τους συνεχώς βελτιώνονται και σταδιακά μπορούν να φτάσουν σε ένα άρτιο αποτέλεσμα που μπορεί να σταθεί μόνο του, χωρίς την ύπαρξη φυσικού μουσείου. Μία καίρια παράμετρος στην εξέλιξη του εικονικού μουσείου είναι η μοντελοποίησή του και πως φτάνει στο σημείο τελικής παρουσίασης στον επισκέπτη. Στο τελικό κομμάτι της εργασίας και μέσω της κατανόησης της λειτουργίας των εικονικών μουσείων, παρουσιάζονται δύο μουσειακές εκθέσεις μέσα σε εικονικό περιβάλλον. Έτσι, μπορεί εύκολα κανείς να καταλήξει στο συμπέρασμα πως μέσω της ψηφιακής παρουσίασης λαμβάνει πλούσια πληροφόρηση και μπορεί να περιηγηθεί με ευκολία σε έναν πολιτιστικό χώρο από τον προσωπικό του υπολογιστή.

Job's Journey: Trusting God Beyond Understanding
Creators: name: Marbun, Saortua
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Abstract 

This sermon delves into the profound and challenging story of Job, focusing on his unwavering faith amid severe trials and suffering. Job, described as a man of great integrity, faces unparalleled hardships, including the loss of his children, wealth, and health. Despite his circumstances, Job's relationship with God deepens, highlighting his refusal to curse God or abandon his righteousness. Through the narrative of Job's honest lament and persistent questioning, the sermon explores the nature of faith that trusts beyond understanding. It emphasizes that true faith involves grappling with unanswered questions while remaining steadfast in the belief that God's ways are ultimately just and good. This sermon seeks to encourage believers to trust in God's sovereignty, embrace the mysteries of His plans, and find peace in the assurance of His omnipotence, even when His responses defy human comprehension.

Keywords: Job's trials, Faith and suffering, Theodicy, Divine sovereignty, Trust in God, Biblical narrative.

description: We study three quasar radio sources (B1257-326, B1519-273, and J1819+385) that show large amplitude intraday and annual scintillation variability produced by the Earth's motion relative to turbulent-scattering screens located within a few parsecs of the Sun. We find that the lines of sight to these sources pass through the edges of partially ionized warm interstellar clouds where two or more clouds may interact. From the gas flow vectors of these clouds, we find that the relative radial and transverse velocities of these clouds are large and could generate the turbulence that is responsible for the observed scintillation. For all three sight lines the flow velocities of nearby warm local interstellar clouds are consistent with the fits to the transverse flows of the radio scintillation signals.

Σκοπός της συγκεκριμένης έρευνας ήταν να εξετάσει την ύπαρξη του Συνδρόμου της Επαγγελματικής Εξουθένωσης (ΣΕΕ) στους/στις εργαζομένους/ες του ιδιωτικού τομέα που εργάζονταν εξ αποστάσεως κατά τη διάρκεια του Covid-19. Επίσης, εξετάσθηκε η σχέση μεταξύ των δημογραφικών μεταβλητών (φύλο, ηλικία, οικογενειακή κατάσταση, επίπεδο σπουδών, έτη εργασίας) και του ΣΕΕ στην εξ αποστάσεως εργασία. Η έρευνα πραγματοποιήθηκε τον Δεκέμβριο του 2022 και συμμετείχαν 176 άτομα που εργάζονταν εξ αποστάσεως στον ιδιωτικό τομέα στην Αττική. Για τη συλλογή των δεδομένων χρησιμοποιήθηκε το ερωτηματολόγιο Maslach Burnout Inventory- General Survey (MBI-GS). Τα αποτελέσματα πολυπαραγοντικών αναλύσεων (MANOVAs) έδειξαν πως ο παράγοντας Φύλο έχει στατιστική σημαντικότητα στην εμφάνιση του ΣΣΕ στην εξ αποστάσεως εργασία, καθώς οι γυναίκες παρουσίασαν υψηλότερα επίπεδα Συναισθηματικής Εξουθένωσης συγκριτικά με τους άνδρες, ενώ στις άλλες δυο υποκλίμακες φάνηκε να μην υπάρχουν σημαντικές διαφορές. Οι υπόλοιποι παράγοντες Ηλικία, Μορφωτικό Επίπεδο, Οικογενειακή Κατάσταση, και Έτη Εργασίας δεν έδειξαν στατιστική σημαντικότητα. Οι εργαζόμενοι/ες στην εξ αποστάσεως εργασία φαίνεται να βιώνουν σε χαμηλά επίπεδα το ΣΕΕ, καθώς επίσης η Συναισθηματική Εξουθένωση φαίνεται να συσχετίζεται θετικά με την Αποπροσωποίηση. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας μπορεί να φανούν χρήσιμα σε μετέπειτα έρευνα, καθώς η εξ αποστάσεως εργασία είναι ένα νέο εργασιακό φαινόμενο και χρειάζεται περεταίρω έρευνα στον Ελληνικό εργασιακό χώρο, και το ΣΕΕ είναι ένα φαινόμενο που συνεχώς διερευνάται και απασχολεί την ερευνητική κοινότητα.

description: In this work, we present HDT-stats, an extension to the HDT operations, to compute further metadata when evaluating triple patterns over RDF graphs represented with HDT. Then, we propose a novel model that relies on the HDT-stats metadata, as well as the distinct position of SPARQL variables, to estimate the cardinality of joins between triple patterns. Our preliminary results suggest that our approach produce smore accurate cardinality estimations than existing solutions.

description: The discrete variational identity under general bilinear forms on semi-direct sums of Lie algebras is established. The constant $γ$ involved in the variational identity is determined through the corresponding solution to the stationary discrete zero curvature equation. An application of the resulting variational identity to a class of semi-direct sums of Lie algebras in the Volterra lattice case furnishes Hamiltonian structures for the associated integrable couplings of the Volterra lattice hierarchy.

description: Abstract: "The combinatorial match in production systems (rule- based systems) is problematical in several areas of production system application: real-time performance, learning new productions for performance improvement, modeling human cognition, and parallelization. The unique-attribute representation is a promising approach to eliminate match combinatorics. Earlier investigations have focused on the ability of unique-attributes to alleviate the problems caused by combinatorial match [Tambe, Newell and Rosenbloom 90]. This paper reports on an additional benefit of unique-attributes: a specialized match algorithm called Uni-Rete.Uni-Rete is a specialization of the widely used Rete match algorithm for unique-attributes, and it has shown over 10-fold speedup over Rete in performing match."

description: The maximal $U(1)_L$ supersymmetric inverse seesaw mechanism (M$L$SIS) provides a natural way to relate asymmetric dark matter (ADM) with neutrino physics. In this paper we point out that, M$L$SIS is a natural outcome if one dynamically realizes the inverse seesaw mechanism in the next-to minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM) via the dimension-five operator $(N)^2S^2/M_*$, with $S$ the NMSSM singlet developing TeV scale VEV; it slightly violates lepton number due to the suppression by the fundamental scale $M_*$, thus preserving $U(1)_L$ maximally. The resulting sneutrino is a distinguishable ADM candidate, oscillating and favored to have weak scale mass. A fairly large annihilating cross section of such a heavy ADM is available due to the presence of singlet.

Fifteen fungal isolates were isolated and identified by molecular methods into the genera Alternaria, Cladosporium, Curvularia, Diaporthe, Epicoccum, Myrothecium, Neofusicoccum, Nigrospora, Preussia and Ustilago. Cladosporium cladosporioides and Curvularia lunata were the most frequently isolated species. The fungal metabolic profiles were obtained by automated TLC and NMR and analysed by PC Analysis. Antifungal and antibacterial activity was assessed by bioautographic assays. In addition, the biotransforming ability of the fungal isolates was tested on F. carica extracts. Five isolates (33.3%) exhibited inhibitory activity against at least one of the microorganisms tested. Most of the fungal endophytes were able to metabolise the flavonoid rutin 1, and the coumarin psoralen 3 present in F. carica extracts. Further investigations of the psoralen biotransforming ability performed by the selected endophyte Alternaria alternata F8 showed the accumulation of the 6,7-furan-hydrocoumaric acid derivative 4 as the main biotransformation product. Our results corroborate that F. carica can live symbiotically with rich and diverse endophytic communities adding insights about their ecological interactions.

description: In this paper, the synthesis of thermally activated delayed fluorescence nanoparticles (TADF NPs) is reported using a micelle-confined soft template self-assembly. With vaporing organic solvent in this system, TADF NPs with a diameter of about 500 nm were obtained. The main advantage is to nanoencapsulate these TADF molecules with an amphiphilic polymer. As demonstrated, air-stable nanoparticles with efficient TADF properties are realized in water. The application of these as-prepared TADF NPs as a kind of alternative electrochemiluminescent (ECL) material has also been investigated. The triplet-harvesting ability combined with excellent redox properties endows as-prepared TADF NPs with a high ECL efficiency of 10.82%, which is a marked enhancement over previous results. Therefore, ECL materials with similar behavior to reported TADF materials in this article are desirable in applications such as ECL sensing, imaging, and light-emitting devices.

description: Pineapple (Ananas comosus L.) is a significant tropical fruit, and its processing generates considerable waste, particularly from pineapple peels. These peels, which represent 30-42% of the fruit’s weight, contain cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin, making them a valuable resource for creating bio-based, biodegradable materials. This study investigates the extraction of nanocellulose from pineapple peels (PPNc) and its application in biodegradable film production. PPNc films were fabricated using a gellan gum matrix and characterized for their physical, chemical, mechanical and biodegradation properties. Results indicate that the films exhibit a transparency of 24.52 ± 0.86%, a water solubility of 25.29 ± 1.03%, and a biodegradation rate of 91.14 ± 1.41%, outperforming many conventional biodegradable films. The films also demonstrated a tensile strength of 69.6 ± 4.95 MPa and a Young’s modulus of 1392 ± 99 MPa, indicating robust mechanical properties suitable for packaging applications. Additionally, the films showed moderate water vapor transmission rates (69.66 ± 0.08 g/m² × day) and excellent light transmission properties, making them viable for food packaging where visibility and moisture control are essential. These findings highlight the potential of PPnc films as sustainable, biodegradable alternatives to single-use plastics, contributing to waste reduction, environmental conservation and promoting a circular economy.

description: The critical behaviour of the Ising model in the absence of an external magnetic field can be specified either through spontaneous symmetry breaking (thermal criticality) or through cluster percolation (geometric criticality). We extend this to finite external fields for the case of the Potts' model, showing that a geometric analysis leads to the same first order/second order structure as found in thermodynamic studies. We calculate the Kertész line, separating percolating and non-percolating regimes, both analytically and numerically for the Potts model in presence of an external magnetic field.

description: Crowdsourced GPS probe data has been gaining popularity in recent years as a source for real-time traffic information. Efforts have been made to evaluate the quality of such data from different perspectives. A quality indicator of any traffic data source is latency that describes the punctuality of data, which is critical for real-time operations, emergency response, and traveler information systems. This paper offers a methodology for measuring the probe data latency, with respect to a selected reference source. Although Bluetooth re-identification data is used as the reference source, the methodology can be applied to any other ground-truth data source of choice (i.e. Automatic License Plate Readers, Electronic Toll Tag). The core of the methodology is a maximum pattern matching algorithm that works with three different fitness objectives. To test the methodology, sample field reference data were collected on multiple freeways segments for a two-week period using portable Bluetooth sensors as ground-truth. Equivalent GPS probe data was obtained from a private vendor, and its latency was evaluated. Latency at different times of the day, the impact of road segmentation scheme on latency, and sensitivity of the latency to both speed slowdown, and recovery from slowdown episodes are also discussed.

description: Abstract: "We present new techniques for the construction of uniquely represented data structures in a RAM, and use them to construct efficient uniquely represented data structures for orthogonal range queries, line intersection tests, point location, and 2-D dynamic convex hull. Uniquely represented data structures represent each logical state with a unique machine state. Such data structures are strongly history-independent. This eliminates the possibility of privacy violations caused by the leakage of information about the historical use of the data structure. Uniquely represented data structures may also simplify the debugging of complex parallel computations, by ensuring that two runs of a program that reach the same logical state reach the same physical state, even if various parallel processes executed in different orders during the two runs."

description: We have conducted radio timing observations of the eclipsing millisecond binary pulsar J2051-0827 with the European Pulsar Timing Array network of telescopes and the Parkes radio telescope, spanning over 13 years. The increased data span allows significant measurements of the orbital eccentricity, e = (6.2 {\pm} 1.3) {\times} 10^{-5} and composite proper motion, μ_t = 7.3 {\pm} 0.4 mas/yr. Our timing observations have revealed secular variations of the projected semi-major axis of the pulsar orbit which are much more extreme than those previously published; and of the orbital period of the system. Investigation of the physical mechanisms producing such variations confirm that the variations of the semi-major axis are most probably caused by classical spin-orbit coupling in the binary system, while the variations in orbital period are most likely caused by tidal dissipation leading to changes in the gravitational quadrupole moment of the companion.
