DEVELOPMENT OF STEM-BASED DIGITAL POCKETBOOK ON SPLDV MATERIAL USING THE ADDIE MODEL: APPLICATION IN ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS

This study aims to assess the feasibility, teacher and student responses, and effectiveness of the STEM-based digital pocketbook on the topic of Systems of Linear Equations in Two Variables (SPLDV). The subjects of this research were junior...

Outdoor access practices in the Canadian dairy industry

ABSTRACT: Dairy cows are highly motivated to access pasture and have a partial preference for alternative forms of outdoor access (e.g., deep-bedded outdoor sand or wood-chip packs). In addition, Canadians value the provision of outdoor acc...

A Secure, Intelligent, and Smart-Sensing Approach for Industrial System Automation and Transmission over Unsecured Wireless Networks

In Industrial systems, Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, the pseudo-transport layer of the distributed network protocol (DNP3) performs the functions of the transport layer and network layer of the open systems interc...

Spatial patterns in the contribution of biotic and abiotic factors to the population dynamics of three freshwater fish species

Background Population dynamics are driven by a number of biotic (e.g., density-dependence) and abiotic (e.g., climate) factors whose contribution can greatly vary across study systems (i.e., populations). Yet, the extent to which the contri...

Genomic Organization and Expression of Iron Metabolism Genes in the Emerging Pathogenic Mold Scedosporium apiospermum

The ubiquitous mold Scedosporium apiospermum is increasingly recognized as an emerging pathogen, especially among patients with underlying disorders such as immunodeficiency or cystic fibrosis (CF). Indeed, it ranks the second among the fil...

PRICHAIN: A Partially Decentralized Implementation of UbiPri Middleware Using Blockchain

With the popularization of the Internet-of-Things, various applications have emerged to make life easier. These applications generate a large amount of user data. Analyzing the data obtained from these applications, one can infer personal i...

6G Beyond Radio: From Connecting Devices to Sensing the World

Future sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks are expected to evolve beyond traditional communication infrastructures and incorporate native sensing and environmental awareness capabilities. While previous generations primarily focused on ...

Classification and hydrocarbon distribution of passive continental margin basins

Sixty-six passive continental margin basins around the world were compared comprehensively from the aspect of seismogeology on the basis of plate tectonics. According to their textural and structural differences, passive continental margin ...

Distributed Multi-Antenna Positioning for Automatic-Guided Vehicle

Radio-based positioning systems are typically utilized to provide high-precision position information for automatic-guided vehicles (AGVs). However, the presence of obstacles in harsh environments, as well as carried cargoes on the AGV, wil...

AMALGAMATION OF BUSINESS INT ELL IGENCE WITH ENT ERPRISE RESOURCEPLANN ING SYSTEMS FOR IND USTRY 4.0

Businesses today are incredibly data rich, and dealing with large amount of data, so making some inferences andconclusions, depending on the organisation size and complexity of its processes, it has been a challenge, especially that thenext...

Statics and Dynamics of Selfish Interactions in Distributed Service Systems.

We study a class of games which models the competition among agents to access some service provided by distributed service units and which exhibits congestion and frustration phenomena when service units have limited capacity. We propose a ...

Toward a Fit-for-purpose Policy Architecture on Long-term Care in Sub-Saharan Africa: Impasse and a Research Agenda to Overcome it

Context: Perspectives from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) have featured little in the expanding global debate on long-term care (LTC) policy thus far – despite SSA countries’ embrace of global commitments on the development of equitable and susta...

A Fully Adapted Headstage With Custom Electrode Arrays Designed for Electrophysiological Experiments

Electrophysiological recordings lead amongst the techniques that aim to investigate the dynamics of neural activity sampled from large neural ensembles. However, the financial costs associated with the state-of-the-art technology used to ma...

Critical Cybersecurity Scenarios in Drinking Water Treatment Plants

The increasing interconnectivity with external networks and the higher reliance on digital systems make chemical and process industries, including waste and drinking water treatment plants, more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Historical evide...

SIMULATION OF INFORMATION SECURITY RISKS OF AVAILABILITY OF PROJECT DOCUMENTS BASED ON FUZZY LOGIC

The widespread use of computer technology, its rapid development and use in almost all areas of human activity requires constant updating of information security issues. The activities of many enterprises in the field of IT, construction, a...
