Abstract:
Growing concerns about the health of young people and physical activity can be observed recently. Indeed, children do not exercise enough, they tend to play computer games and watch television instead of playing outside. None of the state authority assumes responsibility for the establishment of proper conditions for students’ physical activity; too little attention is paid to the quality of physical education classes. Not all Lithuanian schools pay enough attention to the issues of health education. In some schools, students’ health is fostered only by the individual teachers initiative (Proškuvienė, 2004). What are the causes of such a situation? A health education process in schools would be conducted more efficiently if it was supported by more willingness and active participation of all the staff and students’ parents. Physical activity is one of the factors influencing people’s health. Movement is the body’s natural biological need, and ordinary human activity is hardly possible without it. Physical activity can be understood in quite a broad sense. It includes various exercises, participation in competitions, household work, leisure activity that requires physical effort, as well as physical work. In order to implement the students’ healthy lifestyle education and addiction prevention programs a teacher survey on healthy living issues and on the use of tobacco, alcohol and other psychoactive substances were conducted in the Vilnius Jons Basanavicius Gymnasium. The public health official (PHO) carried out the students’ state of health analysis in accordance with the provided medical evidence. The aim of the survey was to determine the teachers’ attitude to the students’ health education and to evaluate the students’ and teachers’ initiatives which promote physical activity and prevention of addictions. The prevailing method used in the survey was a questionnaire for the teachers which consisted of 10 open-ended questions. 62 questionnaires were handed out, and soon 42 of them were filled in. Thus, 67.74 percent of the teachers shared their knowledge of a healthy lifestyle. The results of the questionnaire survey conducted at Vilnius Jonas Basanavicius Gymnasium show that only 50 percent of the teachers believe that they play an important role in protecting and enhancing the students’ health. The majority of the teachers thinks that their knowledge about health is only satisfactory. According to the teachers’ subjective assessment, they mainly face the lack of knowledge about the issues of psychotropic substance abuse, sexual education, first aid matters, mental health and coping with stress. About 35.5 percent of the gymnasium teachers do not use the Universal Health Education Program or other health programs such as the preparation for the family life program, the smoking prevention program, the program of changes, and the program of self-confidence. There are many teachers who believe that the most important thing is to teach their particular subject, regardless of the anatomical and psychological characteristics of the students’ health and their real abilities; thus, indiscriminately increasing mental stress and leaving no time for physical activity and recreation. 2015/2016 year students’ health studies have shown that the most common health problems are optic (313 cases), bone and muscle (234 cases), circulatory and respiratory diseases (187 and 105 cases), an increase of disorders of the endocrine system has been noticed (65 cases), and nervous system disorders (26 cases) have also been quite common if compared to the statistics for the years 2014/2015. In order to adapt the students’ healthy lifestyle education and addiction prevention programs at our gymnasium we conducted a survey on tobacco, alcohol and other psychoactive substance use prevalence. The survey that was conducted with the help of the IQES system analysed the answers of 348 gymnasium students from the 1st-3rd form (51 percent of these respondents were boys and 49 percent were girls). All in all, 37 percent of these students were from the 1st form, 39 percent from the 2nd form, and 24 percent from the 3rd form. The survey found out that the most common bad habits observed in our gymnasium are smoking, as 317 respondents (91 percent) indicated; and alcohol consumption – that was admitted by 22 respondents (6 percent). 10 percent of the students named desire to relax as the main reason for smoking; 10 percent admitted being encouraged by their friends; 8 percent pointed out that this was a habit; while 3 percent started smoking out of curiosity. In order to reduce the spread of harmful habits, various prevention events, promotions, meetings and competitions are organized at our gymnasium. Besides, since this school year, the public health official (PHO) organizes the classes based on the issues of psychoactive substance prevention. A lot of events take place in February, since the campaign "February is a healthy month – 2016" is traditionally carried out at that time of the year. Programs of health promotion, physical activity and addiction prevention applied in schools will help shape students' psychological - social competence, their life and health skills; encourage healthy living and safe choices. Key words: physical activity, promoting factors, healthy lifestyle, addiction prevention.

Abstract:
Background.Several studies showed that regular gymnasium users use various dietary supplements without comprehension of their potential risks.Objective.To determine the prevalence and dietary supplement intake and assess the awareness of supplement use among regular gymnasium users in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.Methods.A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among regular gymnasium users in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between April 2015 and June 2015. A validated structured questionnaire was used.Results.The study included 299 participants. Of these 113 (37.8%) were dietary supplements users and this was more common among males than females (44.7% versus 16.4%). Gender based analysis showed that males were exercising more frequently than females and the type of cardiovascular exercise was more among them. The most commonly used supplements were whey protein (22.1%), amino acids (16.8%), multivitamins (16.8%), creatine (11.5%), and omega 3 (11.5%). The reasons for taking dietary supplements were to improve body shape (47.7%), increase health (44.2%), and improve performance (41.5%).Conclusion.Most of the information about supplements was obtained from unreliable sources. More studies are needed to better understand supplements use and their impact on health in Saudi Arabia.

Abstract:
The article deals with literary and artistic life at the Kremenets Ukrainian Gymnasium named after Ivan Steshenko. On the basis of archival materials the teaching staff of the educational institution, which functioned in the territory of the Second Rzeczpospolita, was studied. The author notes that the main component of state formation in the years of the Ukrainian People's Republic was the formation and development of Ukrainian national education and culture. The first step in implementing the national school reform was the creation of conditions for the introduction of the Ukrainian language in high school and the opening of new Ukrainian gymnasia. Numerous documents stored in the State Archives of the Ternopil region (351, «Private Ukrainian Gymnasium of Joint Training in Kremenets»), reveal the activity of the educational institution and confirm its prominent role in the educational life of the Ukrainian population of Kremenets. The researcher emphasizes the pedagogical skills of the teaching staff of the Kremenets Ukrainian Gymnasium, and the understanding of the important role of education in the process of preserving national dignity and spirituality contributed to the formation of students' professional and intellectual development. In its activity, the Ukrainian gymnasium has repeatedly faced difficulties: lack of funding, lack of premises adapted properly to educational needs, lack of appropriate material and technical base, but it became the center of high culture and education. The content of the first issue of the handwritten literary and artistic magazine "Youth" was analyzed, on the basis of the memoirs of the student of the gymnasium and the editor of the almanac U. Samchuk, the names of the members of the literary circle were established. The main aspects of the cultural-artistic collaboration of the teaching staff and the students' collectives of the gymnasium with Prosvita Society are revealed. The musical activity of high school students was traced and the programs of concert performances were explored. Based on the memories of former students of the gymnasium, the repertoire of the theater circle under the direction of G. Berezovsky was considered, and the study of high school students at the School of National Dances V. Avramenko was analyzed. The names of well-known writers and public figures who studied in the Ukrainian gymnasium were established.

Abstract:
Supervised exercise (SE) in patients with type 2 diabetes improves oxygen uptake kinetics at the onset of exercise. Maintenance of these improvements, however, has not been examined when supervision is removed. We explored if potential improvements in oxygen uptake kinetics following a 12-week SE that combined aerobic and resistance training were maintained after a subsequent 12-week unsupervised exercise (UE). The involvement of cardiac output (CO) in these improvements was also tested. Nineteen volunteers with type 2 diabetes were recruited. Oxygen uptake kinetics and CO (inert gas rebreathing) responses to constant-load cycling at 50% ventilatory threshold (VT), 80% VT, and mid-point between VT and peak workload (50% Δ) were examined at baseline (on 2 occasions) and following each 12-week training period. Participants decided to exercise at a local gymnasium during the UE. Thirteen subjects completed all the interventions. The time constant of phase 2 of oxygen uptake was significantly faster (p < 0.05) post-SE and post-UE compared with baseline at 50% VT (17.3 ± 10.7 s and 17.5 ± 5.9 s vs. 29.9 ± 10.7 s), 80% VT (18.9 ± 4.7 and 20.9 ± 8.4 vs. 34.3 ± 12.7s), and 50% Δ (20.4 ± 8.2 s and 20.2 ± 6.0 s vs. 27.6 ± 3.7 s). SE also induced faster heart rate kinetics at all 3 intensities and a larger increase in CO at 30 s in relation to 240 s at 80% VT; and these responses were maintained post-UE. Unsupervised exercise maintained benefits in oxygen uptake kinetics obtained during a supervised exercise in subjects with diabetes, and these benefits were associated with a faster dynamic response of heart rate after training.

Abstract:
To improve air change rate and exercise site’s thermal comfort of gymnasium under natural ventilation in hot and humid areas, taking Guangzhou as an example, symmetrical model, unsymmetrical model, and unsymmetrical model with corbel table were simulated and calculated with Fluent and other software. The result indicates that, compared with symmetrical mode, unsymmetrical model and unsymmetrical model with corbel table can improve exercise site’s wind velocity and integral air change rate, and the latter model improves more. Based on unsymmetrical model with corbel table, window-opening ventilation strategies for competition are further put forward. In the end, it discusses about the influence towards thermal comfort of exercise site by natural ventilation in different form models and different use modes.

Abstract:
Background: People who have experienced a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) will most likely live with motor and cognitive deficits including balance and poor mobility. These deficits may lead to limitations in activity participation, life satisfaction, and may increase the risk of falls. Improving access to rehabilitation care in the chronic phase of recovery is essential to prevent ongoing health issues. However, geographical restrictions, cost of transportation, or recently the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions may limit access to rehabilitation services. Telerehabilitation could serve as an alternative method to provide rehabilitation care while increasing access. Objectives: The overall objective of this dissertation was to understand the implementation of high-intensity telerehabilitation exercise programs for people living with a moderate or severe TBI and their family partners. This was accomplished by 1) determining the feasibility of using telerehabilitation, 2) investigating the effectiveness of high-intensity home-based telerehabilitation exercise programs on physical activity, functional mobility and dynamic balance, 3) understanding the perspectives and lived experiences of completing a telerehabilitation program, and 4) exploring how interpersonal behaviours can influence practice and be perceived in a telerehabilitation setting. Methodology: Influenced by a people-centered approach and explained by the Self-Determination Theory, this dissertation followed a mixed-method alternating single-subject design methodology. Five dyads composed of five persons living with a moderate or severe TBI and their family partners completed two high-intensity telerehabilitation programs remotely supervised, daily and weekly. The feasibility and effectiveness of the telerehabilitation programs were measured from a quantitative and qualitative perspective to replicate the clinical realities and understand all perspectives. Results: In this dissertation, the feasibility of using telerehabilitation with this population was highlighted by reporting high adherence, high usability, active engagement and safety. The effectiveness on physical activity levels, functional mobility, dynamic balance and concerns with falling was also demonstrated with no differences between the daily and weekly remote supervision schedule. The dyads described being highly satisfied, engaged, and enjoyed the remotely supervised exercise programs. The individuals with the TBI perceived more supportive behaviours than thwarting behaviours from the physiotherapist. Conclusion: This dissertation advances knowledge on telerehabilitation implementation for people living with cognitive and motor deficits following a TBI. High-intensity home-based telerehabilitation programs were shown to be feasible and effective. I introduced the importance of assessing needs-supportive and needs-thwarting interpersonal behaviours in the telerehabilitation context. Integrating these novel telerehabilitation concepts within emerging telerehabilitation models of care could significantly impact long-lasting positive health outcomes for individuals living with a moderate or severe TBI.

Abstract:
The aging population and burden of chronic conditions have led researchers and practitioners to develop, implement, and evaluate evidence-based programs (EBPs) for older adults. The Healthy Aging Regional Collaborative (HARC) was established to make EBPs including Diabetes Self-Management Program, Chronic Disease Self-Management Program, Matter of Balance, and EnhanceFitness (EF) accessible in south Florida. According to the REAIM model, reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance determine the impact of EBPs. Evaluation of HARC demonstrated widespread adoption of EBPs by community organizations that reached diverse participants and effectiveness among participants attending the recommended number of sessions, but only 19% of EBP participants were male, and only 25% of EF participants met attendance criteria for adherence. This mixed-methods dissertation explored program instructor and coordinator perspectives on barriers and strategies related to male participation in EBPs, examined predictors of short-term and long-term adherence to EF, and applied a theoretical framework to explore participant and instructor perspectives on factors influencing adherence to EF. Fourteen program coordinators participated in a focus group to identify barriers and strategies to improve male participation, and 49 instructors participated in a survey to triangulate findings. Themes among barriers to male participation included women outnumbering men in programs, incompatibility of programs with male gender roles, and preference for other activities. Themes among strategies included endorsement by male community leaders, advertisements featuring males, and content adaptation. Among 5,619 EF participants, logistic regression confirmed age, race/ethnicity, gender, and health status as significant predictors of adherence. The likelihood of short-term and long-term adherence increased with age and health. Black participants were less likely than whites to adhere short-term (OR=0.82, p=.05) but more likely to adhere long-term (OR=1.77, p=.000). Hispanics were more likely than whites to adhere short-term (OR=1.25, p=.008) and long-term (OR=1.30, p=.001). Men were more likely to meet the criteria for short-term (OR=1.47, p=.001) and long-term adherence (OR=1.19, p=.04). Interviews with 12 adherent EF participants and 10 instructors revealed cues to action, goals, beliefs, intentions, program factors, social factors, and benefits that supported adherence. Findings inform efforts to improve participation and adherence in EBPs and maximize their impact on health among older adults.

Abstract:
Background and Purpose: To investigate the effect of an individualized exercise program versus a generic group-based exercise program on balance, gait, and functional performance of older adults categorized as having mild balance dysfunction and living in residential care facilities. Methods: Single blind randomized control design. One hundred-twenty residents fulfilled screening criteria for mild balance dysfunction based on the BioSwayTM balance and the Multi-Directional Reach Test (MDRT) primary outcome measures. Secondary assessment was completed using the Modified Physical Performance Test (PPT), hand-held dynamometer (lower-limb muscle strength testing), and gait speed analysis. Sixty subjects received individualized treatment from physical therapists (8 weeks). Another sixty subjects received generic group-based exercises (8 weeks). All outcome measures were collected at baseline and post-intervention (ninth week); and BioSwayTM and PPT measures at follow-up (thirteenth week) for the individualized group. Results: Individualized group (n=60) showed significant improvement compared to the group-based group (n=60) on the two BioSwayTM scores (limits of stability, p < .001; and postural stability, p = .016), the MDRT scores (forward reach, p < .001; backward reach, p = .007; right lateral reach, p < .001; and left lateral reach p < .001), the strength scores (hip flexors, p = .010; knee extensors, p = .002; hip abductors, p = .009; and ankle dorsiflexors, p = .025), the PPT outcomes (p < .001), and the gait scores (p = .012). Effect sizes ranged from small to large, with the largest sizes for limits of stability and MDRT. There were no significant differences between groups for the mCTSIB (p = .538). However, 96.7% of subjects in the individualized group scored within one SD of the reference mean, relative to 75% in the group-based group. At follow-up, the individualized group showed significant differences over time with medium to large effect sizes on the PPT (p < .001), limits of stability (p < .001), postural stability (p < .001), and mCTSIB (p = .005) measures. Post-hoc analysis revealed retention of gains for all measures at follow-up, except the mCTSIB. Conclusion: The individualized group showed significant improvements in the areas of balance, strength, mobility, and functional outcomes.

Abstract:
This thesis involves a study of adolescent participation in gymnasium based exercise programs (GBEPs) in Australia. It investigates the problematic nature of, and the influences on their low levels of participation. Special attention is given to the significance of gymnasiums as spaces for adolescent exercise participation, and—in the light of both the prevailing regulatory context and operations of the Exercise and Fitness Industry (EFI)—the capacity of gymnasium businesses and their workers to appropriately cater for this cohort. The study used a triangulated mixed-method research design, with data sourced from semi-structured telephone interviews, a structured online questionnaire, and documents relating to the operations and conduct of the EFI in Australia. Interviews were conducted with 16 informants, including a government minister, government and industry association executives, and senior managers from gymnasium businesses. Also from across Australia, were 44 parents and/or guardians of adolescent children who completed the questionnaire. The document analysis incorporated independent industry reports and government regulations relevant to the EFI and the context of this study. In particular, industry codes in four state and self-governing mainland territories, which were the main and generally enforceable regulations specific to the EFI in Australia, were examined. The study was framed by stakeholder theory, with the data situated in an analytical setting guided by regulation theory. The findings suggested that gymnasium businesses generally discriminated against adolescents through informal exclusion and restrictive policies on gymnasium based exercise program (GBEP) participation, and it was clear that this customer segment was not given the attention it deserved. In addition, most stakeholders believed that there was a need for better educated and suitably qualified gymnasium instructors and personal trainers, able to provide appropriate supervision, guidance and exercise instruction. Also demonstrated was strong support for external EFI regulation, including mandatory gymnasium business and instructor accreditation, with interview informants, in the main, believing that it would result in better quality and safer industry practices, offering quality assurance. While the findings showed that gymnasiums were mostly viewed as appropriate spaces for adolescent exercise participation, some stakeholders felt that the prevailing levels of regulation of the EFI, as well as its internal practices, were unable to deliver Australia’s adolescents with equitable access and appropriate levels of support to participate effectively in GBEPs. The findings were used to formulate a number of recommendations—predominantly for the EFI—with special attention to advancing the participation of adolescents in GBEPs across Australia. Accordingly, the thesis culminates in the analysis of policy options and strategic opportunities to increase their participation, whilst ensuring equal gymnasium access. This includes the nationwide introduction of external industry regulation, mandatory gymnasium business and instructor accreditation, and a gymnasium access requirement which provides all adolescents with the opportunity to participate in GBEPs. The ensuing recommendations are to support both adolescent and adult GBEP participants, improve enterprise and industry performance, and potentially contribute to building a healthier and more active Australian population.

Abstract:
AbstractParkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects primarily motor system. Physical exercise is considered important for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) to slow down disease progression and maintain abilities and quality of life. However, people with PD often experience barriers to exercises that causes low-level adherence to exercise plans and programs. Virtual Reality (VR) is an innovative and promising technology for motor and cognitive rehabilitation. Immersive VR exergames have potential advantages by allowing for individualized skill practice in a motivating interactive environment without distractions from outside events. This paper presents an immersive virtual reality (VR) exergame aiming at motor training on fingers and hand-and-eye coordination. The results from the usability study indicate that immersive VR exergames have potential to provide motivating and engaging physical exercise for people with PD. Through this research, we hope to contribute to evidence-based design principles for task-specific immersive VR exergames for patients with Parkinson’s Disease.

Abstract:
AbstractPatients discharged from hospitals following the onset of an acute illness or injury rendered with disabling conditions require systematic medical-based and rehabilitation-focused sports and exercise programs accessible in their communities. This proposal aims to build a data-driven smart health system that allows people with disabilities to continuously improve their health by alleviating modifiable factors, including architectural barriers and related challenges following discharge from an inpatient hospital or rehabilitation course. Our goal is to promote a multi-ministerial data-driven innovative medical exercise system using a digital living lab platform as a testbed program to provide lifestyle exercise and physical education for community-dwelling individuals with disabilities. The pilot program of services will be rendered at the living lab center of the National Rehabilitation Center, equipped with data servers for storing accumulated pertinent information and continuous data acquisition. We envision an encrypted data collection and acquisition system, whereby newly acquired data will be merged with data information from original records of individuals generated during the inpatient hospital course.

Abstract:
AbstractDifferential software testing is important for software quality assurance as it aims to automatically generate test inputs that reveal behavioral differences in software. Detecting regression bugs in software evolution, analyzing side-channels in programs, maximizing the execution cost of a program over multiple executions, and evaluating the robustness of neural networks are instances of differential software analysis to generate diverging executions of program paths. The key challenge thereby is to simultaneously reason about multiple program paths, often across program variants, in an efficient way. Existing work in differential testing is often not (specifically) directed to reveal a different behavior or is limited to a subset of the search space. This work proposes the concept of Hybrid Differential Software Testing (HyDiff) as a hybrid analysis technique to generate difference revealing inputs. HyDiff consists of two components that operate in a parallel setup: (1) a search-based technique that inexpensively generates inputs and (2) a systematic exploration technique to also exercise deeper program behaviors. HyDiff’s search-based component uses differential fuzzing directed by differential heuristics. HyDiff’s systematic exploration component is based on differential dynamic symbolic execution that allows to incorporate concrete inputs in its analysis. HyDiff is evaluated experimentally with applications specific for differential testing. The results show that HyDiff is effective in all considered categories and outperforms its components in isolation.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the authors propose a system for generating error correction questions of programs, which are suitable for developing debugging skills in programming education. The system generates HTML files for answering questions and CGI programs for checking answers. They are deployed on a Web server, and learners read and answer questions on Web browsers. It provides an intuitive user interface; a learner can edit codes in place at the text. To make programs including errors for learning debugging, the authors analyze types of errors and define the processes of error injection as code transformation patterns. If learners can edit any codes freely, it is difficult to check all possible answers. Instead, the authors adopt a strategy to restrict editable points and possible answers from the educational view. A demonstration of error correction questions of the C language is available at http://ecq.tebasaki.jp/.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews the issue of overweight management, which is one of the major challenges faced by most countries today. The causes of obesity include genetic and epigenetic factors, a lack of physical activity, eating disorders, and gut microbiota status. Physical exercise is the main means of prevention and management of overweight and obesity. The effectiveness of exercise programs for obese people typically varies around 80%, but it can be increased by taking into account biochemical, genetic, epigenetic, and microbiome markers, which allows choosing the most appropriate type of exercise according to individual characteristics. The pathogenetic preconditions for reducing exercise tolerance were examined based on the existing imbalance of adipokines, cytokines, and incretins. The association between genotype and weight loss induced by different diets and types of exercise was discussed along with obesity epigenetic markers. The effects of dietary choice on the microbiome composition and its contribution to the development of systemic inflammation in obese people were assessed. The weight management exercise program for middle-aged women was presented. The structure and value of the factors that determine the physical condition of overweight middle-aged women were described. These data provide the basis for designing a sound exercise program for weight management.

Abstract:
Middle school students are physically and psychologically different from adults. They are in a relatively special and rapidly changing phase. As the most penetrating level of environmental perception, visual perception directly affects the use of the space in middle school gymnasiums. Based on the human factors engineering problem of teenagers using campus gymnasiums to carry out sports activities, this study takes visual perception as the starting point and adopts the method of combining research and experiment. Through semi-structured interviews and grading questionnaires, the strong factors related to middle school students’ willingness to exercise and architectural space design were refined. A seven-differentiation evaluation scale was constructed by SD method, and a questionnaire survey was conducted on 1150 middle school students. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed on the statistical data, and multiple groups were compared by age group and gender, and thus corresponding design strategies were proposed. The paper aims at promoting the enthusiasm of youth sports development, and providing theoretical support for the construction and development of middle school gymnasiums.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Cervical syndrome is one of the most common painful conditions of modern times. It can be defined as a set of disorders caused by degenerative changes to the joints of the cervical spine. The clinical picture of a person affected by the cervical syndrome includes pain, increased tone of the neck muscles, as well as the muscles of the shoulder girdle, reduced range of motion of the cervical spine, etc. This study aimed to determine the effects of exercise programs on cervical syndrome based on a systematic review of previous research. PubMed, Google Scholar, SCIndex, and Medline databases were all searched to compile data on the effects of exercise programs on cervical syndrome. The following keywords were used in the search: cervical syndrome, physical exercise, and neck pain. The inclusion criteria were that the papers were written in English, were available in full text, and were published between 2015 and 2020. Based on the set criteria, 13 studies were included in the final analysis. Based on their analysis, it was determined that various forms of physical exercise programs have numerous positive effects among people affected by the cervical syndrome (reduction of pain, increased range of motion of the cervical spine, increased muscle strength and endurance of neck muscles, relaxation of cervical flexor muscles, reduction of pain in response to pressure, reduction of nocturnal neck pain, etc.). Physical exercise programs lead to strengthening and increased flexibility. By strengthening the musculature, the support that the muscles give to the surrounding joints increases, while the increase in flexibility affects the function of the joints and enables a greater range of motion, which is reduced by cervical syndrome. Due to all the previously mentioned positive effects of physical exercise programs among people affected by the cervical syndrome, physical exercise programs should be included as their first-line treatment.

Abstract:
This paper proposes new algorithms for generation of trace files and deterministic execution of concurrent programs under test. The proposed algorithms are essential to automate the coverage testing of concurrent programs and allow to execute new synchronizations automatically, increasing the source code coverage with focus on non-determinism, and edges of communication and synchronization. Our algorithms consider programs with multiple paradigms of communication and synchronization (collective, blocking and non-blocking point-to-point message passing, and shared memory). We validate our algorithms by means of experiments based on nine representative benchmarks, which exercise non-trivial aspects of synchronization found in real applications. Our algorithms have a robust behaviour and meet their objectives. We also highlight the overhead generated with the algorithms.

Abstract:
The potential of using immersive technologies like Virtual Reality (VR) in education is endorsed by several research studies indicating an expected increase in its use within the foreseeable future. Owing to its capacity to provide a highly interactive and immersive experience, the adoption and integration of VR into maritime safety training can create new opportunities for competency-based learning and teaching methods. In a safety-critical domain such as the maritime industry, safety training is crucial for ensuring trainees’ competency in emergency response and survival skills. This is accomplished through a range of training programs that were specifically tailored to address emergency events. However, during training exercises, fear and anxiety can have a substantial influence on trainees performance, especially if the activity is stressful as the "Helicopter Under Water Escape Training" (HUET). To address this problem, it is essential to psychologically prepare the trainees before executing the exercise. Driven by this aim, this applied research claims that incorporating VR technology into the classroom prior to practical exercises might contribute to achieving the best feasible results of the preparation by improving skill acquisition while mitigating fear and disorientation. The methodology followed in the study consists of two stages; the first comprises a 3D-Camera recording the training exercises from the trainee’s seats view, and examples of commonly committed faults. The trainees watch these recordings in VR headsets before practicing the exercises. The second stage entails conducting, collecting and analyzing trainees’ questionnaire, as well as observations raised by training instructors to distinguish viable elevations in trainees’ performance. Based on the outcomes of this study, it can be concluded that VR technology considerably enhances learning by enabling trainees to anticipate difficulties of the exercises, hence contributing to improved training performance.

Abstract:
Flexible elements are used for modeling of various hawsers, chains, ropes, tail-ropes and other elements in the programmes of simulation. Depending on a current task a set of requirements necessary for a flexible element modeling is formulated. The article presents two methods of rope, wire, cable designing in computer games programming environment Unity3D based on the use of primitive objects. The standard design method grounded in hinge joints employment is considered. The disadvantages of a standard method are noted and two new methods of modeling are offered. The developed methods consider the requirements necessary for the solution of the task at hand, they include the reality of a scene, the interaction with surrounding objects, the possibility to specify the function of a natural sag. Two methods of modeling are compared taking into account the implementation area of programs, the reflection of physical and geometrical properties of modelled entity and the reality of a scene. Both methods meet specified requirements, however it is expedient to use one of the methods for mobile scenes, such as games, exercise machines, simulators of processes, while the other fits better for static programmes.

Abstract:
The value of blood pressure in children aged one to 12 years is based on the normative distribution of blood pressure in healthy children of normal body weight and is interpreted on the basis of gender, age, and height of the child. Normal values are considered to be lower than the 90th percentile, elevated blood pressure is considered to be valued between the 90th and 95th percentile, and high blood pressure or hypertension are considered to be all values above the 95th percentile. Due to the need for specialized cuffs of different sizes and the complexity of interpreting blood pressure values, it is necessary to measure blood pressure in children with standardized procedures in pediatric clinics. Children and adolescents with elevated blood pressure and hypertension should change their lifestyle, which includes: weight loss, regular physical activity, a special approach to diet, and stress reduction. The duration, frequency, and/or intensity of physical activity can be increased through increased spontaneous physical activity, organized physical exercise programs, or participation in sport. It is important to provide children and adolescents with elevated blood pressure and hypertension with equal opportunities and incentives to participate in physical activities that give them pleasure, offer diversity and that are appropriate for their age and abilities.

Abstract:
Purpose: The aim of the study is to develop and verify an intervention program based on find-ings of the subject field Pulmonary Rehabilitation and the application of such programme to a daily program of healthy probands over a six-week period. The authors were concerned with determining whether an intervention program, based on a combination of aerobic load and resistance training, might affect the breathing stereotype and breathing functions in healthy individuals. Methods: Muscle dynamometer MD03 was used to examine the extent of engagement of in-dividual breathing regions. Breathing functions, or more specifically, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and one-second vital capacity (FEV1), were measured by means of Spirometer Ot-thon, and the evaluation was conducted using program ThorSoft. The intervention included 6 probands at the age of 21.3 ± 0.8 who exercise regularly. The probands underwent initial and final tests. The data obtained were evaluated and substantial significance was deter-mined using Cohen’s d, and the Student’s paired t test for dependent selection. Significance value was determined at significance value α = 0.05. Data were processed in programs Mi-crosoft Excel 2016 and Statistica 12. Results: The tested set of probands showed a substantially significant change of value FVC (Cohen’s d = −0.13, i.e. a small effect). This change was also statistically significant. As regards value FEV , a substantially significant change incurred (Cohen’s d = −0.23, i.e. a small effect). Likewise, this change was statistically significant. The analysis of breathing movements of the observed group of probands revealed improvement especially in the lower thoracic region (abdominal) following the completion of the intervention program. In resting breathing, a substantially significant (Cohen’s d = 2.83, a large effect) as well as statistically significant change was effectuated in this region. In the middle thoracic region, a substantial-ly significant change (Cohen’s d = 0.01, i.e. a small effect) incurred; however, there was no statistical change. No substantially or statistically significant changes were obtained for the upper thoracic (subclavian) region. Conclusion: Our results imply that the aforementioned intervention applied in healthy individ-uals who exercise regularly hasn’t had a positive influence on breathing functions. Though there was a small improvement in the breathing stereotype, the optimum engagement of the abdominal breathing region within the breathing wave as described in specialized literature was not accomplished.

Abstract:
The Safe Motherhood Demonstration Project (SMDP) implementation framework was developed as a result of lessons learned and approaches used during SMDP in Western Province, Kenya, 2000–04. All the components require cooperation and support at the provincial and national level. The six components, as outlined in this brief, are: preparation; safe motherhood (SM) rapid appraisal; analysis; intervention planning; implementation; and evaluation. The development of a Safe Motherhood Rapid Appraisal Tool has been an important outcome of the DFID Western Province SMDP. The intervention in Western Province was based on addressing resource and skills gaps in service provision, which were identified by a situation analysis carried out in each district. Through the introduction of training programs tailored to staff needs, ensuring that basic equipment and drugs were available, and ensuring greater community involvement, safe motherhood services have been improved in Western Province. The situation analysis exercise was refined during the project, resulting in the development of the Safe Motherhood Rapid Appraisal Tool.
