E4.6.2 final design of zero-touch and proactive network management
Creators: name: i2CAT
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Deliverable E4.6.2, titled Final Design of Zero-Touch and Proactive Network Management, marks the completion of task A4.2 in the 6GENABLERS project (IA for 6G: Ultra Automation and Optimization, reference number TSI-063000-2021-10). Building on E4.3.2, this deliverable presents an enhanced approach for proactive, zero-touch management in future 6G networks. It leverages Neuro-Symbolic (NeSy) AI tools, particularly Logic Tensor Networks (LTN), to develop an efficient CPU resource prediction service that balances the trade-off between over-provisioning and under-provisioning through the use of smooth logical predicates in the model’s loss function. These predictions will inform the intelligent orchestrator for anticipatory scaling actions during the integration phase. The designed algorithm is highly adaptable to both online and offline telemetry data metrics, aligning with ETSI ZSM’s closed control loop framework.The report begins with an exploration of the rationale behind CPU prediction and its critical connection to network performance, followed by an introduction to NeSy’s concept and its transparency. It then outlines the model architecture and describes the O-RAN experimental dataset used. The deliverable delves into the NeSy formulation, presenting key results that show NeSy’s superior performance over the state-of-the-art DeepCog model by minimizing both under- and over-provisioning. Additionally, a complexity analysis is conducted, comparing NeSy to baseline models. The report concludes with a discussion on adherence to the ETSI ZSM closed-loop framework, as well as the integration of OPTARE’s telemetry system and OpenNebula orchestrator.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed human daily life. To mitigate the pandemic’s impacts, different countries and regions implemented various policies to contain COVID-19 and residents showed diverse responses. These human responses in turn shaped the uneven spatial-temporal spread of COVID-19. Such human-pandemic interaction is complex, dynamic, and interconnected. Delineating the reciprocal effects between human society and pandemics is crucial for preparing for and managing future epidemics. Geospatial big data acquired through mobile applications and sensor networks have facilitated near-real-time tracking and assessment of human responses to the pandemic, enabling a surge in researching human-pandemic interactions. However, these investigations involve inconsistent data sources, human activity indicators, relationship detection models, and analysis methods, leading to a fragmented understanding of human-pandemic dynamics. To assess the current state of human-pandemic interactions research using geospatial big data, we conducted a synthesis study based on 67 selected publications between 25 March 2020, and 9 January 2023. We extracted information from each article across six categories, i.e. publication details, research context, research area and time, data, methodological framework, and results and conclusions. Results reveal that the influence of stay-at-home policies on mobility decrease varied regionally, showing limited effectiveness in Europe compared to the US. The positive correlations between human mobility and COVID-19 case rates evolved through time and were highest in the initial outbreak in 2020. Public awareness generally peaked prior to the peaks in COVID-19 cases, with varying intervals of 0 to 19.8 days observed across different countries. This study summarizes the research characteristics of selected articles and highlights the need for future research to spatially and temporally model the long-term, bidirectional causal relationships within human-pandemic systems to inform evidence-based, hyperlocal pandemic mitigation strategies.

description: Anurans are widely diversified in South Africa, with more than 150 recognised species across the country. However, most the known fossil records of anurans are concentrated in the southern part of South Africa, within the rich Pliocene site of Langebaanweg. Isolated anuran elements have been recovered in the Pliocene deposits of the Cradle of Humankind, but none from the multi-localities site of Bolt’s Farm (Plio-Pleistocene). A small block containing an articulated anuran specimen was recently discovered from the Milo A site from Bolt’s Farm. We analysed this specimen using CT-scanning to describe its osteology. Surprisingly, the cavity housing the skeleton took the shape of the body of the individual, revealing a small sized individual with a triangular-shaped head. The preserved skeletal elements (around 50% of the skeleton) shows clear synapomorphies of the Ranoidea. A comparison between our specimen and members of all South African ranoid families allow us to highlight numerous osteological similarities between our specimen and taxa of the Pyxicephalidae, leading to a putative attribution to this large African family. In addition, the position of the body is identical to the position of a dormant pyxicephalid, suggesting that our specimen died during a dormancy period, in the dry season. This supports the current paleoenvironment reconstruction, an open savannah with marked seasonality.
The Effects of Repeated Reading on Oral Reading Fluency of Third Grade Students

subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate).

description: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of repeated readings on the oral reading fluency of third grade students. This study utilized a quasi-experimental design that included a pretest and treatment, followed by a posttest. The 19 participants in this study attended an urban public school in Maryland during the 2016-2017 school year.  This study hypothesized that gains in fluency, as reflected in changes in the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Literacy Skills (DIBELS) Oral Reading Fluency (ORF) Correct Words Per Minute (CWPM) score from the middle (MOY) to the end of the year (EOY) would not differ significantly between students who completed repeated readings over a five-week intervention period and those who did not participate in the repeated readings intervention. The results of this study confirmed that there was not a statistically significant difference between the control and treatment groups’ gains in WPM read correctly.  This implied that the brief strategy of repeated reading instruction did not improve oral reading fluency of third grade students who demonstrated a wide range of reading abilities.  Observations made during the intervention and students’ feelings about reading are discussed in relation to this finding and the literature review.

Phylogeographic structuring in a widespread southern African grass snake (Psammophiinae: Psammophylax rhombeatus)

description: The structural and environmental heterogeneity within southern Africa has given rise to many morphological forms of Psammophylax rhombeatus distributed throughout the country, with previous studies neglecting the associated molecular significance of these forms. The species’ widespread, generalist ecology coupled with the substantial phylogenetic structuring previously acknowledged within the species, makes P. rhombeatus the ideal candidate for phylogeographic analyses. Using 103 samples, representing the full distribution of the species, phylogenetic analyses retrieved four well-supported clades: south-eastern South Africa, south-western South Africa, north-eastern South Africa and western South Africa. Although not variable enough to warrant taxonomic re-evaluation, the clades are phylogenetically distinguishable, with relatively high intraspecific genetic divergence values separating them, irrespective of the small geographic distances separating populations. This is likely a product of the taxon’s habitat-generalist lifestyle, enabling them to bypass vicariant barriers that might otherwise cause speciation in less versatile species. The clades are also geographically distinct, with little overlap, indicating previous vicariance, a finding that is supported by the split of P. rhombeatus from P. ocellatus in the mid-Pliocene, followed by the diversification of P. rhombeatus into four clades throughout the Pleistocene. The genetic structuring observed in P. rhombeatus may be a product of population expansion following ancient refugial isolation (potentially Last Glacial Maximum). The morphological groupings highlighted in previous studies are loosely attributable to the molecular clades identified in the phylogenetic reconstruction, highlighting the complex interplay of genetic and morphological characteristics in the process of speciation, and their representation in systematic accounts.

Subjects: Democracy-election by lot-failure of electoral process

description: Nowadays every kind of regimes are based on elections, and due to that are called democracies. Nevertheless, some of them are not democracies in a true sense, but dictatorships that promove elections to legitimate themselves. Added to this, in democratic countries there is some malaise about the politicians and their detachment from realities. So is important to renew the concept of democracy.

This paper proposes a new concept of democracy for the 21st century not only based in elections by votes, but in election by lot and other forms of better relation between power and people.

description: Intraspecific variation in colour patterns may reflect adaptive responses to local environmental regimes that favour selection of different trade-offs between visual communication, thermoregulation, and anti-predatory functions. Understanding the drivers of colour pattern variation within species can therefore provide valuable insights about adaptation. However, the ecogeographic correlates, and thus the ecological drivers, associated with the segregation of different colour morphs for most reptile species, including snakes, are not well known. Here, we examined differences in environmental niches associated with occurrence records of preserved museum specimens and georeferenced photographic images of common egg-eaters (Dasypeltis scabra) to characterise ecogeographic divergence between typically patterned, patternless, and faintly marked individuals. We gathered 1707 records that we assigned as either patterned, plain, or intermediate morphs. Most records were of patterned individuals, which were widely distributed in southern Africa. Climate niches differed between morphs as plain and intermediate snakes were restricted to high-elevation areas in the Highveld grasslands of South Africa, and woodland-dominated areas in the central and eastern parts of both Zambia and Zimbabwe, but there were no areas where only plain or intermediate snakes occurred in isolation from patterned snakes. Environmental niche modelling predicted minimal areas suitable for co-habitation of colour morphs. We speculate that plain or weakly-marked colour patterns likely developed as an adaptation to increase camouflage ability in open areas in grassland and certain woodland habitats.

description: The family Ptychadenidae contains three ecologically and morphologically distinct genera: the widespread, species-rich and above-ground dwelling Ptychadena, the less widespread and diverse, burrowing Hildebrandtia, and the little-known, burrowing, monotypic Lanzarana, endemic to Somalia. Previous morphological studies placed Lanzarana in a sister position to Hildebrandtia and these two genera as sister to Ptychadena. However, our analyses of mitochondrial and multilocus nuclear DNA data revealed Lanzarana as a sister lineage to Ptychadena (divergence ∼28 Mya), and Hildebrandtia sister to them (∼42 Mya). This suggests that the common ancestor of ptychadenids may have exhibited a burrowing lifestyle similar to Hildebrandtia and Lanzarana, rather than the more active, above-ground lifestyle of Ptychadena. In addition, based upon analysis of available mitochondrial DNA data, we have identified major clades within the genus Ptychadena and propose them as four species groups, with the P. mascareniensis group being the first diverging lineage (∼20 Mya). We also report four new localities of Lanzarana largeni from central Somaliland, south-western Puntland, southern Somalia and south-eastern Ethiopia, extending the presently known range of the species westward. This represents the first official record of L. largeni from Ethiopia. An ecological niche model of L. largeni for present climatic conditions identifies extensive climatically highly suitable areas in central Somalia and south-eastern Ethiopia. A model for future climatic conditions estimates a substantial extension of climatically suitable areas to northern Somalia and north-eastern Kenya, likely due to predicted more humid conditions accompanying the increase of temperatures in the western Indian Ocean.

description: Ansorge’s Rock Skink Trachylepis ansorgii (Boulenger, 1907) is an Angolan taxon, the taxonomic distinctiveness and geographic distribution of which are poorly understood. It is closely related to the widespread Western Rock Skink T. sulcata (Peters, 1867) from Namibia and South Africa, but heretofore a lack of samples has prevented a comprehensive assessment of T. ansorgii in a molecular phylogenetic context. We combine new genetic sampling from south-western Angola, including topotypical material of T. ansorgii, with published sequences from South Africa and Namibia to identify population structure, phylogenetic relationships, and divergence dates within this species complex. A multi-locus dataset of three nuclear and two mitochondrial loci recovered significant population structuring with a centre of diversity in south-western Angola and northern Namibia. Mitochondrial data recovered seven clades representing distinct geographic populations, while the nuclear data supported either two or three deeper groupings. Mito-nuclear discordance was observed with respect to the geographic boundary between T. ansorgii and T. sulcata. The nuclear data support a break along the western Kunene River (the political boundary between Angola and Namibia), while the mitochondrial data support this break ∼250 km to the north in south-western Angola. A time-calibrated BEAST phylogeny found the deepest species-level divergence to have occurred in the late Miocene/early Pliocene (∼6 mya), potentially related to the formation of the Kunene River. Our results support the recognition of both taxa at the species level, and add further evidence that south-western Angola is a centre of reptile diversity.

description: Cataract surgery is one of the infrequent ocular surgeries. The adequate ocular position with central alignment is the main prerequisite for good surgical technique. Propofol and sevoflurane are the common anesthetics drugs used during pediatric anesthesia. BIS monitor is one of the common intraoperative awareness monitors used. To assess the efficacy of the bispectral index monitor in quantifying the depth of anesthesia and its correlation with ocular alignment during juvenile cataract surgery. Specifically, we will compare the use of sevoflurane anaesthesia with total intravenous anesthesia using a midazolam bolus and propofol infusion. This study included 100 children scheduled for cataract surgery. The children were divided into two groups: group (S) included 50 children who were anesthetized using sevoflurane maintenance only and group (P) included 50 children who were anesthetized using continuous intravenous anesthesia (midazolam bolus plus propofol infusion) as maintenance after induction with sevoflurane anesthesia 8%. The bispectral index was recorded immediately after induction and after intubation and every 5 min later on until end of surgery. The eye position showed statistically significant central position among the propofol group with p value 0.02. An eye position-BIS value association was found statistically significant negative correlation in sevoflurane group while no statistically significant link was found in the propofol group. Use of BIS monitor for making correlation between depth of anesthesia for prediction of ocular alignment was significant in sevoflurane group, but not in propofol group in pediatric patients and even with adequate depth of general anesthesia.

description: Role of point of care ultrasound in management of acute kidney injury (AKI) is still unclear. The discrimination between AKI and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in ED, especially in the absence of clear CKD history, represents a dilemma. To test the accuracy of POCUS and intact parathormone hormone (iPTH) as differentiators between AKI and CKD, and to investigate the role of POCUS in management of AKI in the ED. This prospective study involved 95 adult patients presented to ED of Alexandria Main University Hospital, with signs and/or symptoms suggesting renal impairment in the absence of prior renal functions tests from April 2022 to December 2022. POCUS was done and iPTH was measured for all enrolled patients. Validity of renal length and iPTH to discriminate AKI and CKD were tested. POCUS were used to identify different underlying causes of AKI. Renal length ≤ 9.62 cm could diagnose CKD (Area under curve-AUC 0.926) with 82.46% sensitivity, 92.11% specificity, 94.0% PPV and 77.8% NPV. Intact PTH level > 161 pg/ml could diagnose CKD (AUC 0.844) with 73.17% sensitivity, 92.11% specificity, 90.9% PPV and 76.1% NPV. Both renal length and iPTH are accurate tests to differentiate AKI from CKD in ED. POCUS help identifying the different causes of AKI and reaching appropriate management decisions.

description: Sepsis is a fatal condition with high treatment costs, early identification of sepsis is mandatory to avoid lethal complications. The objective of this study was to compare the predictive capabilities of platelets to lymphocytes ratio (PLR) and procalcitonin (PCT) in determining the outcome of sepsis. This study was a prospective cross-sectional study and fifty-four individuals diagnosed with sepsis were involved. The participants were between the ages of twenty-one and sixty-five and had been admitted to ICU for more than twenty-four hours. The measurement of whole blood count and PCT serum levels was conducted at time of diagnosis, as well as on days three, seven, and fourteen following the onset of sepsis while SOFA score was conducted at time of admission. There was important elevation in platelet to lymphocytes ratio value and PCT in non survivors group compared to survivors group at day one, three, and seven of diagnosis of sepsis (p value ≤ 0.05), and day fourteen there were no data in non survivors group. The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score was found to be the most effective in mortality prediction [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.982] second effective was PCT (AUC = 0.977) and PLR was third (AUC = 0.945). In adult patients diagnosed with sepsis PLR with cutoff value > 228.89 demonstrates efficacy as a reliable prognostic indicator for predicting outcomes in sepsis. Although PLR may have a lower predictive power compared to PCT and SOFA score, it possesses the advantage of being a readily available and cost-effective technology.

description: Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a common procedure for the treatment of chronic sinusitis and minimal bleeding inside the narrow surgical field affects the surgical visualization, prolongs operative time, and increases ocular and intracranial injuries. Our study aims to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of oral versus intravenous Tranexamic acid on surgical field bleeding in endoscopic sinus surgery. A prospective, randomized, controlled trial enrolled 159 participants (ASA I-II, both sex and age 18–40 years) undergoing FESS who were equally randomized into 3 groups. Group O received 2 gm of TXA orally 2 hours before surgery, Group I received 15 mg/kg of IV TXA slowly after induction of anesthesia, and Group C didn’t receive any. Intraoperative surgical field bleeding was assessed by the Wormald grading scale and Surgeon satisfaction on a 5-point Likert scale. At 24 hours post-operatively, the incidence of nasal bleeding, PONV, and D-dimer level were recorded. Showed significantly higher surgical field score, duration of surgery, recovery time, and postoperative (24 hours) D-dimer in group-C (p-value <0.001) with no difference between groups-I and O, while surgeon satisfaction was significantly lower in group-C (p-value <0.001) with no difference between groups-I and O. No differences regarding hemodynamic parameters, postoperative bleeding, pain, and PONV were found. Oral TXA was safe, cheap, and as effective as IV TXA regarding surgical field visualization, surgeon satisfaction, and operative time during FESS; with limited adverse effects and no evidence of thromboembolic complications.
