description: Abstract

The rapid development of the city of Pekanbaru is reflected in the rapid growth of businesses in various places and sectors. All business sectors have the potential to develop further. Still, from various districts in the Pekanbaru City area, the culinary business is a prominent sector, especially in Pekanbaru. The role of MSMEs in driving the wheels of the national economy is not only as seeds for the growth of large businesses but also as providers of products and services that large businesses cannot produce because they are less cost-efficient. This research aims to concentrate on and investigate the influence of entrepreneurial leadership, business environment, digital literacy, and religiosity on business performance, emphasizing the innovative behavior of MSMEs as an intervening variable. Study This quantitative study with a population study is City MSMEs Pekanbaru. The study collects data using a shared questionnaire with a Likert measurement scale and interviews with MSME actors in Pekanbaru City. Research results are: (1) Leadership Businessman is influential, positive, and significant in business performance. (2) The business environment positively and significantly affects business performance. (3) Digital literacy positively and significantly affects business performance. (4) Religiosity has a positive and significant effect on business performance. (5) Entrepreneurial leadership does not affect innovative behavior. (6) The business environment positively and significantly affects innovative behavior. (7) Digital literacy does not affect innovative behavior. (8) Religiosity has a positive and significant effect on innovative behavior. (9) Innovative behavior positively and significantly affects business performance. (10) Innovative behavior does not mediate the effect of entrepreneurial leadership on business performance. (11) Innovative behavior does not mediate the influence of the business environment on business performance. (12) Innovative behavior does not mediate the effect of digital literacy on business performance. (13) Innovative behavior does not mediate the effect of religiosity on business performance.

description: Striga is a parasitic weed commonly found in both cereals and legumes, reducing yield between 80-100%.
Different control measures emerging from various agricultural Researchers at national and international levels
are been recommended in tackling the negative effects of this weed. A review of these findings has been discussed
for the benefit of our poor-resource farmers in Nigeria. Based from these findings, striga can be managed using
one or more methods: use of biological control practices, use of cultural control practices, planting of resistant
host crops, use of nitrogen fertilizers and use of chemicals/herbicides. The choice of any of these methods will
depend on the literacy level of the farmer, available desired technology, availability of resources at his/her
disposal and size of his/her farm. However, the use of resistant host crops is considered to be the most preferred
because it can easily be handled, affordable, cheaper and more environmentally friendly for Nigerian farmers.

description: Granular Aluminum is a superconductor known for more than eighty years, which recently found its application in qubits, microwave detectors and compact resonators, due to its high kinetic inductance, critical magnetic field and critical current. Here we report on the nonlinear dependence of granular Aluminum inductance on current, which hints towards parametric amplification of the microwave signal in granular Aluminum films. The phase shift of the microwave signal reached 4 radians at a frequency of 7 GHz, which makes it possible to estimate the nonlinearity of the system as 1.4 % and the potential gain of the order of 17 dB

description: As microscopy diversifies and becomes ever-more complex, the problem of quantification of microscopy images has emerged as a major roadblock for many researchers. All researchers must face certain challenges in turning microscopy images into answers, independent of their scientific question and the images they've generated. Challenges may arise at many stages throughout the analysis process, including handling of the image files, image pre-processing, object finding, or measurement, and statistical analysis. While the exact solution required for each obstacle will be problem-specific, by understanding tools and tradeoffs, optimizing data quality, breaking workflows and data sets into chunks, talking to experts, and thoroughly documenting what has been done, analysts at any experience level can learn to overcome these challenges and create better and easier image analyses.
Stabilizing deflection routing in optical burst switched networks

description: This paper studies the blocking performance of optical burst switching (OBS) networks using a sequential office control (SOC) state-independent deflection routing policy. We show that unprotected deflection routing may destabilize OBS resulting in higher blocking probabilities than if bursts were not deflected but simply blocked. This study was motivated by the well-known destabilizing effect that alternative routing has on circuit switching in classical telephony networks. We propose two forms of protection to guard against destabilization: 1) wavelength reservation, which is analogous to trunk reservation in circuit switching; and, 2) preemptive priority, which is a new form of protection where bursts that have not been deflected are given preemptive priority over bursts that have been deflected. Our main contribution is a one-moment reduced-load approximation to evaluate the blocking performance of OBS networks using deflection routing protected by either wavelength reservation or preemptive priority. Our reduced-load approximation relies on the usual assumptions of link independence and Poisson distributed link arrivals. We quantify the error admitted in making these two assumptions via simulation. Using our reduced-load approximation, we evaluate the blocking performance of protected and unprotected deflection routing in several randomly generated networks. The chief conclusion of our study is that deflection routing in OBS should be given some form of protection to avoid destabilization resulting from upward load variations, and in terms of blocking performance, preemptive priority is the best form of protection for OBS. We use simulation to verify that our conclusions remain valid for a realistic traffic scenario.
Freezing delay of a drop impacting on a monolayer of cold grains

description: We investigate a subfreezing droplet impact scenario in a low-humidity environment, where the target is a cold granular monolayer. When the undercooling degree of targets passes a threshold, such a granular layer effectively postpones the bulk freezing time of the droplet in comparison with the impact on the bare substrate underneath. In this case, the retraction of the droplet after impact reduces the contact area with the cold substrate, even though both the grains and the substrate are wettable to the liquid. We find that the significant changes in the dynamic behavior are triggered by freezing the liquid that wets the pores. Owing to the small dimension of the pores, the freezing process is rapid enough to match the dynamics over the droplet dimension. In certain circumstances, the rapid freezing may even stop liquid penetration and shed icing from the underneath surface.

description: In deep reinforcement learning, estimating the value function to evaluate the quality of states and actions is essential. The value function is often trained using the least squares method, which implicitly assumes a Gaussian error distribution. However, a recent study suggested that the error distribution for training the value function is often skewed because of the properties of the Bellman operator, and violates the implicit assumption of normal error distribution in the least squares method. To address this, we proposed a method called Symmetric Q-learning, in which the synthetic noise generated from a zero-mean distribution is added to the target values to generate a Gaussian error distribution. We evaluated the proposed method on continuous control benchmark tasks in MuJoCo. It improved the sample efficiency of a state-of-the-art reinforcement learning method by reducing the skewness of the error distribution.

description: This paper introduces a very general discrete covering location model that accounts for uncertainty and time-dependent aspects. A MILP formulation is proposed for the problem. Afterwards, it is observed that most of the models existing in the literature related with covering location can be considered as particular cases of this formulation. In order to tackle large instances of this problem a Lagrangian relaxation based heuristic is developed. A computational study is addressed to check the potentials and limits of the formulation and some variants proposed for the problem, as well as to evaluate the heuristic. Finally, different measures to report the relevance of considering a multi-period stochastic setting are studied.

description: In this paper, we examine the restricted phase space (RPS) thermodynamics for charged AdS black holes by considering the impact of quantum gravity on the event horizon area. The primary aim of this work is to elucidate the influence of quantum gravitational effects on thermodynamic behaviors, critical phenomena, phase transitions, and the stability of black holes. We observe that charged AdS black holes exhibit thermodynamic behavior similar to that of Van der Waals fluids when influenced by quantum gravity. Furthermore, we introduce a novel black hole thermodynamic phenomenon, which we term ``resistance of phase transitions". Our study uncovers a violation of the homogeneity property of the Smarr relation in RPS thermodynamics due to the effects of quantum gravity.

description: Measurements of singlet oxygen (1O2) quenching rates (kQ (S)) and the relative singlet oxygen absorption capacity (SOAC) values were performed for seven rice bran extracts 1–7, which contained different concentrations of antioxidants (AOs) (such as α-, β-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols and -tocotrienols, three carotenoids (lutein, β-carotene, and zeaxanthin), and γ-oryzanol), in ethanol at 35 °C using UV–vis spectrophotometry. The concentrations of four tocopherols and four tocotrienols, three carotenoids, and γ-oryzanol contained in the extracts were determined using HPLC-MS/MS, UV-HPLC, and UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, respectively. Furthermore, comparisons of kQ (S) (Obsd.) values observed for the above extracts 1–7 with the sum of the product { [AO-i]} of the values obtained for each AO-i and the concentration ([AO-i]) of AO-i contained in extracts 1–7 were performed. From the results, it has been ascertained that the SOAC method is applicable to general food extracts to evaluate their 1O2-quenching activity. Measurements of the quenching rate (kQ) of singlet oxygen were performed for seven rice bran extracts in ethanol to evaluate their singlet oxygen quenching activity.

description: Since biological activity of medicinal plants is dependent on cultivation area, climatic conditions, developmental stage, genetic modifications and other factors, it is important to study flora present in different growing sites and geographical zones. This study was focused on screening of antioxidant activity of C. angustifolium harvested in six different locations in Lithuania. The total contents of phenolic compounds, flavonoids and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity were evaluated by spectrophotometric methods. A correlation between radical scavenging activity and total phenolic compounds content was observed (correlation coefficient 0.98). HPLC with online post-column DPPH radical scavenging reaction detection was used for the separation of extracts. Oenothein B, rutin and one unidentified compound were predominant. Volatile compounds were analysed using solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Based on the analysis of volatiles, all samples were classified into two chemotypes: (I) with predominant α- and β-caryophyllenes and (II) with predominant anethole.

description: Carbon (C) cycling is crucial to agroecosystem functioning. Important determinants for the belowground C flow are soil food webs, with microorganisms and microfaunal grazers, i.e., nematodes, as key biota. The present study investigates the incorporation of plant-derived C into the nematode micro-food web under two different cropping systems, grassland (ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and white clover (Trifolium repens L.)) and agroforest (willow (Salix schwerinii Wolf and Salix viminalis L)). To quantify the C flux from the plant into the soil micro-food web, grass and willow were pulse-labeled with 13CO2 and the incorporation of 13C into the nematode trophic groups was monitored 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after labeling. The natural stable isotope signals (13C/12C, 15N/14N) were analyzed to determine the structure of the nematode micro-food web. The natural isotopic δ15N signal revealed different trophic levels for omnivores and predators in grassland and agroforest soils. The incorporation of plant C into nematode tissue was detectable three days after 13CO2 labeling with the highest and fastest C allocation in plant feeders in grassland, and in fungal feeders in agroforest soil. C flux dynamics between the aboveground vegetation and belowground micro-food web varied with cropping system. This demonstrates that crop-specific translocation of C affects the multitrophic interactions in the root environment, which in turn can alter soil nutrient cycling.

Methodologies and Theories within Academic Research
Creators: name: Arnold, Josie
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This paper enters into scholarly debate and discussion about data, methodologies and theories within academic research. It proposes that critical and cultural theories and methodologies are not some isolated intellectual game. It explores how they are that, but they also offer us ways in which we can identify those things that we most take for granted in our society. Once we have identified their existence, then we can begin to see how they are constructed. We question cultural metanarratives and confront normative but constrictive ways of knowing. In doing so, we identify those who benefits from these 'givens' and those who are locked out from the central aspects of culture through the unthinking application of such 'givens'. Reading against the dominant cultural texts enables scholarly critiques of cultural metanarratives. It can be seen that such questioning is disruptive in the sense that it calls upon us to undertake scholarly research that takes knowledge forward. In doing so, we must clearly challenge that which we take for granted. For example, language embodies that shared cultural view in a flawed way. The flawed ways in which language establishes that shared cultural view is the best that we can do to share meaning. Language is a social 'given' or 'norm' that constructs the individual as well the culture. Meaning (fact) is never 'fixed' and stable: It is always in interpretation. Thinking thus acts to displace social reverence for 'fact' showing it to be a cultural invention necessary to the maintenance of social orderliness and order.

description: Digestate coming from an Anaerobic Digestion unit in a Biogas Plant, feeded on cow manure and vegetable waste from markets, has been used. About 8–35 L polyethylene transparent bags have been employed as cultivation container, outdoor. Different aliquots of digestate, alone or mixed with commercial liquid fertiliser, were employed to cultivate in batch Scenedesus dimorphus, a freshwater green microalga, in the ENEA facilities of Casaccia Research Center, near Rome, Italy. The cultivation period was June–July 2013. The average daily yields of dry microalgae biomass varied from 20 mg/L/d to 60 mg/L/d, mean 38.2 mg/L/d. Final dry biomass concentration varied from 0.18 to 1.29 g/L, mean 0.55 g/L. S. dimorphus proved to be very efficient in removing N and P from the culture medium. Another fact emerged from these trials is that S. dimorphus inner composition resulted to be variable in response to the tested different culture conditions.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This study aims to investigate the antecedents to customer retention and brand loyalty of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in Thailand. Overall service quality of an ISP is determined by network quality, customer service, information support, privacy and security. The findings reveal that the positive relationships between service quality and consumers' affective evaluations (satisfaction, trust, commitment, and value) were revealed. Overall customers' satisfaction and commitment were positively associated with both attitudinal and behavioural loyalty. However, surprisingly, there was no support for the hypothesised positive association between customers' trust and value with attitudinal and behavioural loyalty. Practical implications that can be drawn from this research will form a foundation for service providers in the home ISP to develop new retention strategies. By making customers more central in company operations, these strategies can potentially reduce the expenses associated with acquiring new customers.

description: The threatened Brazilian Cerrado biome is an important biodiversity hotspot but still few explored that constitutes a potential reservoir of molecules to treat infectious diseases. We selected eight Cerrado plant species for screening against the erythrocytic stages of Plasmodium falciparum, human intracellular stages of Trypanosoma cruzi and bloodstream forms of T. brucei gambiense, and for their cytotoxicity upon the rat L6-myoblast cell line. Bioassays were performed with 37 hexane, ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts prepared from different plant organs. Activities against parasites were observed for 24 extracts: 9 with anti-P. falciparum, 4 with anti-T. cruzi and 11 with anti-T. brucei gambiense activities. High anti-protozoal activity (IC50 values Connarus suberosus, Blepharocalyx salicifolius, Psidium laruotteanum and Myrsine guianensis. Overall, studies of plant extracts will contribute to increase the biodiversity knowledge essential for Cerrado conservation and sustainable development.

description: Fractionation of the methanol extract of the leaves of Oricia renieri and Oricia suaveolens (Rutaceae) led to the isolation of 13 compounds including the hitherto unknown furoquinoline alkaloid named 6,7-methylenedioxy-5-hydroxy-8-methoxy-dictamnine (1) and a flavanone glycoside named 5-hydroxy-4′-methoxy-7-O-[α-l-rhamnopyranosyl(1‴→5″)-β-d-apiofuranosyl]-flavanoside (2), together with 11 known compounds (3–13). The structures of the compounds were determined by comprehensive analyses of their 1D and 2D NMR, mass spectral data and comparison. All compounds isolated were examined for their activity against human carcinoma cell lines. The alkaloids 1, 5, 12, 13 and the phenolic 2, 8, 11 tested compounds exhibited non-selective moderate cytotoxic activity with IC50 8.7–15.9 μM whereas compounds 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and 10 showed low activity.
Employee Mental Illness: Moving Towards a Dominant Discourse in Management & HRM
Creators: name: Romanella, Mirella
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: On a global scale, mental illness affects one in five employees in any twelve month period, and is well represented in the medical research literature as a dominant discourse. However, its presence in management and human resource management (HRM) research literature, while certainly on the rise, is less prevalent than it is in medical and related areas of research. At the same time, discussion of employee mental illness and its effects on employee performance and/or attendance, barely rates a mention in management and HRM textbooks, nor is it a common part of the curricula for university and other forms of higher education seeking to equip our future managers and HRM staff with the necessary skills and knowledge to be effective leaders. This paper will show that employee mental illness is a pervasive element of all workplaces, and as a consequence, policies to manage this phenomenon are not only vital, but overdue. Furthermore, it will be posited that this subject requires immediate inclusion in the teaching programs and textbooks of future managers and HRM staff, and should be elevated from current obscurity in such offerings to the status of a dominant discourse.
