A software prototyping environment called TransObj (TRANSaction and OBJect) is used for designing real-time Transaction-based Concurrent Software Systems (TCSS). In a TCSS design process, a software designer should perform both functional design and performance design. The designer should change his design view from a transaction-based paradigm to an object-based paradigm during the TCSS design process. Recognition of re-entrant functional objects and serially reusable functional objects in the TCSS should be required. TransObj includes the Stepwise Prototyping Method (SPM), and two SPM-based tools: Prolog-based TransObj (P-TransObj) and GPSS-based TransObj (G-TransObj). SPM enables the designer to advance both functional design and performance design for the TCSS prototype as controling the change of design view paradigms. P-TransObj mainly checks the prototype in a microscopic view on a personal computer. G-TransObj mainly checks the same prototype with a longer time span on a large-scale computer.

Recently, autonomous robots play an important role in many aspects. Autonomous robots help improve efficiency and productivity, further reduce errors, and risk rates. Employee safety in high-risk work environments is also becoming one of the benefits of autonomous robots. When designing an autonomous robot, two paradigms can be implemented, i.e., planning and reactive paradigm. A distinct feature of the reactive paradigm is that all activities are carried out through behavior. The benefits of the reactive paradigm include can be applied in limited inexpensive hardware resources, low complexity, goal convergence, easy adaptation to changing situations, and a completely unfamiliar environment with unpredictable mobile obstacles. In this paper, the behavior-based reactive system of an autonomous mobile robot is designed to collect stuff objects. Negotiators have been proposed to combine several behaviors into a system that can be implemented in a variety of situations and cases. The results show that a negotiator can be implemented to realize a fully autonomous mobile robot based on the behavior of the reactive system.

The article is devoted to the development of culturological studies methodological model of the socio-cultural phenomenon basedon the theory of systems principles. The analysisis based on a conceptual paradigm: Sociocultural object is a system consisting of separate parts, interconnected by certain relationships; the system is in continuous development and interaction with the external environment. The algorithm of system analysis contains: understanding the basic purpose and functions of the system; the choice of most optimal variant for partitioning system on components (subsystem, elements); introducing of the hierarchy of parts in the structure of the system; detection оf function of each subsystem and linkages between them; definition ofthe system connections with the environment (or other systems); study of the nature of the variability of the system, of its ability to development and adaptation to the environment. The classification of the sociocultural systems depends on the selected criteria, for example: on the nature of the items, their origin, the variability of propertie, the degree of difficulty, the attitude to the environment, etc. The article reveals the features of system analysis in cultural studies, as well as the potential of the theory of systems in the field of culturology for solving theoretical and practical problems. In the view of the synergetic model, the algorithm of the process of self-organization of the sociocultural system and the mechanisms governing this process are analyzed. The article shows that the self-organization of a sociocultural system is a nonlinear process that is a sequence of phase transitions from an equilibrium state through a nonequilibrium phase and dissipation to bifurcation and relaxation of the system. The process of intercultural interaction is considered through the prism of system analysis. The article shows that the openness of the socio-cultural system is a necessary and indispensable condition for intercultural interaction.

The shift in the Eco-Theocratic thinking in resolving oil pollution disputes at sea by tankers is intended as a new paradigm reconstruction that is more oriented to deep ecology with an ecoliteracy perspective towards a new ecodesign environment as an equal subject to human beings resisting anthropocentrism toward society sustainable sociaty and sustainable environmental development. This concept was built through an analysis of the shift in the perspective of philosophical figures from the organic paradigm of nature to the mechanistic paradigm of new nature and paradigms in looking at nature systemically, holistically and ecologically. This new ecoliteracy paradigm is analyzed through a system of democracy, ecocracy and theocracy with a measure of theology and paradigm of the Pancasila.

We discuss a computational system following the paradigm of distributed computing, which will allow us to simulate the epidemic propagation in random networks with large number of nodes up to one million. This paradigm consists of a server that delivers tasks to be carried out by client computers. When the task is finished, the client sends the obtained results to the server to be stored until all tasks are finished and then ready to be analysed. Finally, we show that this technique allows us to disclose the emergence of seasonal patterns in the respiratory syncytial virus transmission dynamics which do not appear neither in smaller systems nor in continuous systems.

Multirobot system architecture: environment representation and protocolsAn approach to the problem of interoperability in open and heterogeneous multirobot system is presented. It is based on the paradigm of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and a generic representation of the environment. A robot, and generally a cognitive and intelligent device, is seen as a collection of its capabilities exposed as services. Several experimental protocols (for publishing, discovering, arranging, and executing the composite services) are proposed in order to assure the interoperability in the system. The environment representation, the description language for tasks and service interfaces definition, as well as the protocols constitute together the proposed information technology for automatic task accomplishment in an open heterogeneous multirobot system.

The paper offers a systemological interpretation of the anthropocentric approach in linguistics from the point of view of its heuristicity in the analysis of feedbacks of a natural language with the environment. We emphasize ontologically conditioned connection of the language system with the conceptual one, which is the most important component of the environment for the language formation and functioning. Using the descriptive method, as well as the methods of conceptual, contextual, definitional and word-formation types of analysis, the work specifies the constitutive role of positive feedbacks that ensure the functioning of language as a means of cognition. The author considers some language phenomena illustrating the results of this type of connections in the representative side of the language, and also identifies the role of normative phenomena in the implementation of negative feedbacks that contribute to the communicative stability of the language system. It is concluded that the inclusion the relations of language with the environment in the linguistic research makes it possible to more fully characterize the flexibility of its system and explain qualitative changes focused on current cognitive tasks.

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to analyse the quality of the human – work system in the context of modern organisation management paradigms focused on theoretical aspects of sustainable growth in which flexibility gets the crucial condition to meet each company’s objectives specified by this growth. Design/methodology/approach: It is an opinion article, the attempt to interpret the correlation between the high quality of work environment indicated by the goals of Agenda 2030 and the organisation flexibility dimensions presented in literature which imply the growth in efficiency and effectiveness of work potential management. The study was developed on the basis of the regular and critical literature analysis. Findings: The considerations presented in the article indicate that the achievement of high efficiency and effectiveness level in organisation in the era of postglobalisation and Coronavirus is only possible when the high organisation flexibility is guaranteed, and the flexible initiation of innovative changes depends on optimising the management of work potential. The need of flexibile creativity in the company, being a reaction to the radical redefining the human functioning in an organisation, is required on all levels of each company functioning arising from the view that the general organisation flexibility is conditioned by partial flexibilities. Originality/value: The value of this paper is theoretical. The possibilities of obtaining various kinds of flexibility by a company were determined in the context of developing the human – work system and its influence on the total growth of organisation abilities. It was presented that the flexible organisation competences guaranteeing the proper organisation processes, condition the increase in flexibile skills in a positive way, which contributes to the more flexible activities adapted to the permenent and turbulent changes in the company external surroundings. This article is addressed to the people interested in the multiaspect problematics of the academic issue, the obtained results may be the inspiration to further research.

Production scheduling can be affected by many disturbances in the manufacturing system, and consequently, the feasible schedules previously defined became obsolete. Emerging of new technologies associated with Industry 4.0, such as Cyber-Physical Production Systems, as a paradigm of implementation of control and support in decision making, should embed the capacity to simulate different environment scenarios based on the data collected by the manufacturing systems. This paper presents the evaluation of environment dynamics effect on production scheduling, considering three scheduling models and three environment scenarios, through a case study. Results show that environment dynamics affect production schedules, and a very strong or strong positive correlation between environment dynamics scenarios and total completion time with delay, over three scheduling paradigms. Based on these results, the requirement for mandatory inclusion of a module for different environment dynamics scenarios generation and the corresponded simulations, of a Cyber-Physical Production Systems architecture, is confirmed.

Due to anticipated energy shortages and the need to achieve climate goals, there is an urgent requirement for transition towards a green, resilient system of energy provision. This transition is hampered because important players in energy markets (governments and oligopolies), while supporting large-scale solutions, avoid or block systemic changes. This rejection of systemic change is strengthened by the dominant social paradigm, which ignores systemic vulnerabilities, treating resources as solutions and the environment as a sink. In its turn, the dominant social paradigm is contested by the new ecological paradigm and by attitudes towards sustainable business practices. Understanding this framework may be relevant for identifying decision-makers’ perception of system risk, and thus for supporting a transition towards a more decentralized and resilient energy supply. In this context, this paper presents an empirical study among Polish students of a business university (N = 393), trying to discover the relationship between the social paradigms, perceptions of environmental resources and sinks, and systemic risk in large-scale energy production (i.e., nuclear power plants). Although the explained variance is limited, results show that various elements of the dominant social paradigm are related to problem denial. Technological optimism and belief in markets are predictors of optimism about resource shortages and neglect of system risk. This optimism is counteracted by political liberalism, and respondent attitudes towards sustainable business practices. Belief in market forces has an ambivalent effect, tempering technological optimism regarding nuclear energy but also political acknowledgement of the limited resources and sink capacities of the environment. Although the influence of the dominant social paradigm on energy transition can be identified, the results may indicate a decline in belief in market forces and liberal democracy, implying a rethinking of the dominant social paradigm may be needed. The existing relationship between these aspects warrants a critical review and discussion of the central role of the dominant paradigm in current management training. The results indicate that a lack of political liberalism and a negative attitude towards sustainable business practices amplify system risks in, e.g., large-scale nuclear energy projects.

Existing methodologies based on the request/response model for system software design, rooted in principles of object-oriented design, lead to tightly-coupled interactions, and lack coordination capacities. The publish/subscribe (P/S) paradigm is particularly suitable for loosely-coupled communication environment. A design of event and subscription models under an object-oriented environment was motivated by the idea of using P/S paradigm for an object-oriented environment. A compiler subsystem for object-oriented P/S Systems was studied. In the subsystem, its form, working process, and typical algorithms were analyzed from the point of object-oriented and technology of P/S paradigm separately. Experiment was simulated in the following two aspects: users model and middle code generation, and shows that using the P/S service improves the usability of P/S systems.

The article describes the author’s concept of the modern paradigm of legal knowledge. Rethinking philosophical paradigms«epistemology as theory of reflection», the recognition of the irreducibility of cognitive activity to reflective procedures, the lack of systematic research in the field of knowledge in the legal sphere, the predominance of ideology over logic and gnoseology, the lack of comprehensive studies of the content and structure of legal cognition as a complex, multilevel and polyelement system operating in a special environment necessitates the formulation of a paradigm of legal knowledge on a theoretical level. Development of legal knowledge paradigm requires, first, considering the unity of figurative and symbolic, reflective and interpretative issues, and, secondly, the use of modern ideas about the existence of ideal entities and virtual reality, which should include legal concepts and spatio-temporal images.

Although brain-computer interface technology is mainly designed with disabled people in mind, it can also be beneficial to healthy subjects, for example, in gaming or virtual reality systems. In this paper we discuss the typical architecture, paradigms, requirements, and limitations of electroencephalogram-based gaming systems. We have developed a prototype three-class brain-computer interface system, based on the steady state visually evoked potentials paradigm and the Emotiv EPOC headset. An online target shooting game, implemented in the OpenViBE environment, has been used for user feedback. The system utilizes wave atom transform for feature extraction, achieving an average accuracy of 78.2% using linear discriminant analysis classifier, 79.3% using support vector machine classifier with a linear kernel, and 80.5% using a support vector machine classifier with a radial basis function kernel.

The emergence of large amount of data requires an efficient means of processing and storage facilities. Cloud computing provides an effective solution; MapReduce programming paradigm has the ability to handle such data by implementing Hadoop, but came up with some conflicting challenges in terms of Service Level Agreement (SLA) between major stakeholders. This paper focuses on coming up with a MapReduce model through system identification in order to address the requirement of the service time to meet-up the SLA within the limit of defined threshold in the presence of uncertainties in the system. A second order nonlinear model was obtained, which shows a good representation of the real system and could be used to develop control laws on the real system.

Purpose: the article is devoted to the ways to create adaptive production systems, taking into account the experience of the economies that have successfully emerged from the terminal crisis. One of the tasks is to improve the adaptability of the production system or, at the best, of the socio-economic system as a whole, in a now situation of uncertainty and unpredictable social, technological, structural, economic dynamics.Methods: an approach is based on the provisions of systemic economic theory, specifically on the representation of the socio-economic system in the form of a tetrad, comprising several key subsystems (sectors) that exchange resources (powers) that they possess.Results: noticeable contemporary conditions and the characteristics of the global socio-economic system are identified as a terminal crisis, which is determined by the depth and breadth to cover the regions, countries, industries with serious changes of a new quality in the functioning of economic objects at the different hierarchy levels. Such a crisis, in contrast to a structural crisis, affects all social groups, spheres of subject affairs and actors relations. The paper argues the quite relevant issue of how to make a systemic transition to a new model and paradigm of the economy. With this purpose, we have identified three groups of factors on which a model of the economy in a post-pandemic world can be based at least. Theoretical grounds and practical conclusions are given in order to carry out system assembly (synthesis) of a production system based on the model of the tetrad.Conclusions and Relevance: it is shown that the synthesis of all types of systems – socio-economic, industrial, innovation system – should be carried out on the basis on systemic economic paradigm, taking into account both the new current phenomena and peculiarities on the different economic levels. According to the author conclusion, some of the principles, proposed to organize and manage the corporate systems by Deming, can be used to increase adaptive ability of the production systems at least at the micro level of the Russian economy, which will inevitably be being transformed in a post-pandemic world.

In the European context, animal rights legislation is relying on human rights language, since it aims to protect the animals from mental suffring. The fact that a legal norm is not labelled as a human rights norm does not alter its content. This article also shows that in the Estonian judicial system the concept of animals deserving protection of their fundamental rights is accepted by default. The reasoning of court judgments indicates that the main reason for criminal sanction is the violation of animals fundamental right not to be killed or tortured. The article supports the thesis that it is clear that there is an urgent need to recognize the animal rights in legislation directly and the need of such application of these laws by courts; altogether with placing such conviction in public awareness.

The human and social security paradigm has been developed and shaped at different levels in various countries and political regions as a result of their diverse development of civilisation. Security in all spheres of social life has become a paradigm of the present and the future and, following its creation, has caused mental changes in the human value system. The system of values developed at universities, in terms of peaceful coexistence, tolerance, respect for the canons of law, and environmental protection, is becoming an interpretation of the quality of human life. This means that universities, regardless of their educational and scientific research profiles, are actively involved in building security in their micro- and macro-environment in the short and long term. The social responsibility of universities to shape a safe environment consists in including the following in the content of education and in the system of values of graduates: human rights, assumptions of humanitarianism, ethics, tolerance, environmental protection, respect for the law, shaping pro-social attitudes, and many others arising from the challenges of the present and future.

Currently, remote work is common, and this trend has come to several areas and processes, such as education and teaching. Regarding higher education, universities have several challenges to overcome, the most challenging being transforming teaching to be more digital and engaging. Therefore, TechTeach has arisen as a new teaching paradigm that creates a unique learning environment and satisfies students’ and professors’ expectations. After the success of the b-learning approach, professors created new experiences utilizing an entirely online learning environment following this paradigm. This article shows the work performed through a real case study, explains the strategy used to implement this paradigm, provides students’ opinions, and analyses the results achieved. The results demonstrated that, while the effort was tremendous, the result was beneficial to all. After 208 online hours of classes, 11,173 downloads, 15,224 messages, 200,000 sessions, 3 rescues requests, and 28t cards, 98.15% of the active participants gave it their approval, 96.53% considered this subject equal to or better than the others, and 85% of accepted the gamification system. These results show that a class can be an engaging environment where students can learn and enjoy it regardless of whether it is physical or not.

This paper looked at multimedia application techniques in an e-learning environment in the digital libraries in Nigeria as an alternative paradigm to information management. The article surveyed the current state of affairs in the Nigeria Educational sector through careful review of the budget allocation to the Ministry of Education and discovered a negative trend. The article proposes an alternative paradigm to the current method of information access and distribution in the Nigeria Libraries to accommodate e-learning functionalities. The article attempted to define the term data mining in relation to its usage in driving restructuring in line with the Nigerian government agenda for national development. It also covers different data mining features and standards as its main focus was to engage students and learnable groups productively. The article explains why it is necessary to implement a multimedia Internet of Things in the Eastern Nigeria Institutions, basically libraries with the help of internet repositories with the vision of expanding its functionalities to accommodate other five geopolitical regions of the country. The choice of Eastern Nigeria is on the merit of economic stability, relative peace, and general orientation to Western civilization and culture. The design will be centrally built as knowledge repository otherwise referred as Knowledge Powerhouse that will service other subregions through a wireless data sharing architecture. The study also revealed the budget implication and established to what extend the multimedia Internet of things will be used to drive key innovations in the institution Libraries for human capital development in Nigeria and by extension the entire continent of Africa.

Distillations utilize multi-agent based modeling and simulation techniques to study warfare as a complex adaptive system at the conceptual level. The focus is placed on the interactions between the agents to facilitate study of cause and effect between individual interactions and overall system behavior. Current distillations do not utilize machine-learning techniques to model the cognitive abilities of individual combatants but employ agent control paradigms to represent agents as highly instinctual entities. For a team of agents implementing a reinforcement-learning paradigm, the rate of learning is not sufficient for agents to adapt to this hostile environment. However, by allowing the agents to communicate their respective rewards for actions performed as the simulation progresses, the rate of learning can be increased sufficiently to significantly increase the teams chances of survival. This paper presents the results of trials to measure the success of a team-based approach to the reinforcement-learning problem in a distillation, using reward communication to increase learning rates.

SUMMARYThe use of Multi-Agent Systems as a Distributed AI paradigm for Robotics is the principal aim of our present work. In this paper we consider the needed concepts and a suitable architecture for a set of Agents in order to make it possible for them to cooperate in solving non-trivial tasks.Agents are sets of different software modules, each one implementing a function required for cooperation. A Monitor, an Acquaintance and Self-knowledge Modules, an Agenda and an Input queue, on the top of each Intelligent System, are fundamental modules that guarantee the process of cooperation, while the overall aim is devoted to the community of cooperative Agents. These Agents, which our testbed concerns, include Vision, Planner, World Model and the Robot itself.

The human neuroendocrine system is highly sensitive to the social environment. Hormones such as testosterone and cortisol are released in response to a wide variety of social stimuli. The evolutionary functions of this sensitivity are not well understood. Longitudinal monitoring of hormones, behavior, and social environment is a promising research paradigm for solving these evolutionary puzzles.

A computer-aided instructional environment which is based primarily upon the direct manipulation paradigm to promote learning by doing, or discovery learning is described. This environment has been implemented and used in an introductory computer science course to teach algorithmic problem-solving. It has been developed as a modular software system which is easily adapted for a wide range of instructional activities and student populations. It provides a simple, adaptable, and conceptually uniform approach to the development of a class of practical CAI systems. Several important characteristics of this computer-aided instructional environment include guiding students toward understanding a concept without being too obtrusive, introducing example tasks and subtasks so students can discover concepts on their own by generalizing from examples, providing meaningful graphical and/or verbal feedback to students, recognizing and gently correcting misconceptions, and knowing when to terminate a tutoring session.

This paper presents a new approach to solving N-queen problems, which involves a model of distributed autonomous agents with artificial life (ALIFE) and a method of representing N-queen constraints in an agent environment. The distributed agents locally interact with their living environment, i.e. a chessboard, and execute their reactive behaviors by applying their behavioral rules for randomized motion, least-conflict position searching, and cooperating with other agents, etc. The agent-based N-queen problem solving system evolves through selection and contest, in which some agents will die or be eaten if their moving strategies are less effective than others. The experimental results have shown that this system is capable of solving large-scale N-queen problems. This paper also provides a model of ALIFE agents for solving general CSPs.

Abstract This paper presents the development and testing through simulation of an integrated scheme for aircraft sub-system failure detection and identification (FDI) based on the artificial immune system (AIS) paradigm augmented with artificial neural networks. The features that define the self within the AIS paradigm include neural estimates of the angular accelerations produced by the abnormal conditions. The simulation environment integrates the NASA Generic Transport Model interfaced with FlightGear. A hierarchical multi-self strategy was investigated for developing FDI schemes capable of handling malfunctions of a variety of aircraft sub-systems. The performance of the FDI scheme has been evaluated in terms of false alarms and successful detection and identification over a wide flight envelope and for several actuator and aerodynamic surface failures. For all cases considered, the performance was very good, confirming the potential of the AIS paradigm augmented with the proposed neural network-based approach for feature definition to offer a comprehensive solution to the aircraft sub-system FDI problem.

The article, based on a study of the key provisions of the concept of sustainable development and the essence of the concepts of «paradigm» and «system» found that the modern socio-ecological-economic paradigm is a system of selective views, compromises and actions of society. through available economic, institutional, financial, social mechanisms and tools to harmonize relations between the population, government and business. It is determined that the formation of socio-ecological-economic paradigm of sustainable development involves its territorial differentiation, which means the transition to a model that takes into account the economic and natural specifics of certain areas, ensuring a balance between economy, social sphere and ecology. It is proposed to consider the socio-ecological-economic paradigm of sustainable development according to the types of relationships formed between its components: economic-ecological, which provide for the impact of economic activity on the environment. Reflecting the impact of the environment on production conditions, form the raw material base; socio-economic relations provide the spheres of economic activity with labor resources, through which the research and production process takes place; socio-ecological reflect the interaction of the environment and society, their mutual influence. The purely economic ties that arise due to the influence of economic laws, and are the basis for the formation of certain patterns of economic processes and relations, and social ties that arise during the functioning of society and characterize the features and stages of social relations; institutional ties are formed in the process of historical development of the socio-economic environment in the context of reconciling the interests of social groups, etc. A scheme of sustainable development of rural areas as complex systems has been developed in three-dimensional space, which includes, depending on the availability of key links in the system and provides for deviations from its sustainable development.

Fog computing is emerging as a powerful and popular computing paradigm to perform IoT (Internet of Things) applications, which is an extension to the cloud computing paradigm to make it possible to execute the IoT applications in the network of edge. The IoT applications could choose fog or cloud computing nodes for responding to the resource requirements, and load balancing is one of the key factors to achieve resource efficiency and avoid bottlenecks, overload, and low load. However, it is still a challenge to realize the load balance for the computing nodes in the fog environment during the execution of IoT applications. In view of this challenge, a dynamic resource allocation method, named DRAM, for load balancing in fog environment is proposed in this paper. Technically, a system framework for fog computing and the load-balance analysis for various types of computing nodes are presented first. Then, a corresponding resource allocation method in the fog environment is designed through static resource allocation and dynamic service migration to achieve the load balance for the fog computing systems. Experimental evaluation and comparison analysis are conducted to validate the efficiency and effectiveness of DRAM.

A Sensor Web (SW) consists of a large collection of small nodes providing collaborative and distributed sensing abilities in unpredictable environments. Nodes composing such an SW are characterized by resource restrictions, especially energy, processing power, and communication capacities. A sensor web can be thought of as a spatially and functionally distributed complex system evolving in and interacting with a geographic environment. So far, the majority of the currently deployed SWs has been mainly used for prototyping purposes. These SWs operate without considering a management scheme and do not take into account the geographic environment characteristics in which they are deployed. Multiagent Geosimulation (MAGS) is a recent modeling and simulation paradigm which provides a flexible approach that can be used to analyze complex systems such as SW in large-scale and complex georeferenced environments. In this paper, we propose to use an MAGS approach to support SW management. Moreover, we present Sensor-MAGS, a multiagent geosimulation system which manages sensor nodes using Informed Virtual Geographic Environments (IVGE). This system is applied in the context of a water resource monitoring project.

This paper examines a complex security environment and every-day challenges of the modern world. According to the author, the national defence system, as part of the national security system in a modern society, should constantly adapt to challen- ges of the environment in which it operates. Only in this way, it is possible for the defence system to effectively respond to the challenges of globalization processes, including those pertaining to security. The challenge exists in the organisation of defence systems and financial resources providing their functioning in indivi- dual countries. In this respect, countries are organized differently or have started to introduce the organizing or adapting of the system to the challenges of the modern environment in a different way. The success of their adaptation will only become measurable over time. Since Slovenian strategic and guidance documents lay down the transformation of the Slovenian defence system, it is reasonable to consider the examples of good practice and follow the approaches used by selected countries. Only timely and comprehensive transformation of the defence system will provide a more efficient support to the defence system and to the system of protection against natural and other disasters, to the necessary extent. Večplastno varnostno okolje in izzivi sodobnega sveta, s katerimi se vsak dan srečujemo, predstavljajo rdečo nit članka, v katerem trdim, da se mora obrambni sistem kot del nacionalnovarnostnega sistema sodobne družbe nenehno prilagaja- ti izzivom okolja, v katerem deluje. Le njegovo nenehno prilagajanje mu namreč omogoča, da se učinkovito odzove na izzive, ki jih prinašajo s seboj procesi glo- balizacije, tudi na področju varnosti. Izziv predstavlja področje organiziranosti obrambnih sistemov in finančnih virov, ki zagotavljajo njihovo delovanje po posa- meznih državah. Omenjeno področje je namreč v državah različno urejeno oziroma so se države večinoma različno lotile organiziranja oziroma prilagajanja sistema na izzive sodobnega okolja. Uspešnost njihovega prilagajanja bo merljiva šele čez čas. Strateški in usmerjevalni dokumenti določajo tudi preoblikovanje obrambnega sistema Slovenije, zato je smiselno upoštevati tudi primere dobre prakse in pristope, ki so jih uporabile izbrane države. Le s pravočasnim in celovito izvedenim preobli- kovanjem obrambnega sistema se bo zagotovila še učinkovitejša podpora obramb- nemu sistemu in v nujnem obsegu tudi sistemu varstva pred naravnimi in drugimi nesrečami.

This article presents two strategies of manipulation: metaphoric and metonymic. Metaphoric type is a foundation of the totalitarian propaganda. The optimal environment for this type of propaganda is a new urban population, the former peasants. Its best information distribution channel is a newspaper. Its Achilles’ heel is the involvement of population masses in creating and developing of metaphors, which makes perception of metaphors less “automatic” and more thought-provoking. Metonymic type of propaganda is based on categorization of reality through the understanding of what is typical. Such propaganda does not create a holistic worldview and is suitable for an authoritarian rather than classical totalitarian government. Its optimal environment is people who have experience in virtual reality. The ideal information channel is TV. The recipient of this propaganda is not involved in its co-creation, which makes the system more resistant to self-analysis. Nevertheless, like in case of any hidden linguistic manipulation, the intensive use of metonymic type of propaganda reduces its manipulative potential.

Traditional online dental education courses follow the broadcast paradigm which centers on the teacher, not the student. This one-size-fits-all approach resembles a mass-production idea which cannot take individual learner characteristics into account. Most online course designs do not address the issue that users with different goals and knowledge may be interested in different pieces of information about a topic. Adaptive hypermedia (AH) is an emerging field in education research which investigates how computer systems can overcome this problem. AH can be applied to any course content. This learner-centered approach first considers the learning goal(s), then evaluates the user’s abilities and determines the individual learning style, to structure and tailor the curriculum most efficiently. The presented AH environment exploits various concepts of AH. The system collects data to create a model of the individual user, which is continuously refined based on test results throughout the course. The system then adapts the learning material dynamically, using active and passive curriculum sequencing and adaptive presentation.

The increasing complexity of cryptographic devices requires fast simulation environment in order to test their security against fault attacks. SystemC is one promising candidate in Electronic System Level that allows models to reach higher simulation speed. However in order to enable both fault injection and detection inside a SystemC cryptographic models, its code modification is mandatory. Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP), which is a new programming paradigm, can be used to test the robustness of the cryptographic models without any code modifications. This may replace real cryptanalysis schemes. In this paper, we present a new methodology to simulate the security fault attacks of cryptographic systems at the Electronic System Level. A fault injection/detection environment is proposed to test the resistance of cryptographic SystemC models against fault injection attacks. The fault injection technique into cryptographic SystemC models is performed using weaving faults by AspectC++ as an AOP programming language. We validate our methodology with two scenarios applied to a SystemC Advanced Encryption Standard case study: the first is related to the impact of the AOP on fault detection capabilities, while the second refers to the impact of the AOP on simulation time and size of the executable files. Simulation results show that this methodology can evaluate perfectly the robustness of a cryptographic design against fault injection attacks. They show that the impact of AOP on simulation time is not significant.

Purpose – Although big data analytics has reaped great business rewards, big data system design and integration still face challenges resulting from the demanding environment, including challenges involving variety, uncertainty, and complexity. These characteristics in big data systems demand flexible and agile integration architectures. Furthermore, a formal model is needed to support design and verification. The purpose of this paper is to resolve the two problems with a collective intelligence (CI) model. Design/methodology/approach – In the conceptual CI framework as proposed by Schut (2010), a CI design should be comprised of a general model, which has formal form for verification and validation, and also a specific model, which is an implementable system architecture. After analyzing the requirements of system integration in big data environments, the authors apply the CI framework to resolve the integration problem. In the model instantiation, the authors use multi-agent paradigm as the specific model, and the hierarchical colored Petri Net (PN) as the general model. Findings – First, multi-agent paradigm is a good implementation for reuse and integration of big data analytics modules in an agile and loosely coupled method. Second, the PN models provide effective simulation results in the system design period. It gives advice on business process design and workload balance control. Third, the CI framework provides an incrementally build and deployed method for system integration. It is especially suitable to the dynamic data analytics environment. These findings have both theoretical and managerial implications. Originality/value – In this paper, the authors propose a CI framework, which includes both practical architectures and theoretical foundations, to solve the system integration problem in big data environment. It provides a new point of view to dynamically integrate large-scale modules in an organization. This paper also has practical suggestions for Chief Technical Officers, who want to employ big data technologies in their companies.

The increasing threats and opportunities, on the global markets, challenge today the company at several levels. The actual Manufacturing Systems becomes dramatic for the survival and prosperity of the organization. Agility, Sustainability and high rate of Re-usability are the main objectives of an “Evolvable Production System”. Task-specific and process-oriented modules with embedded intelligence, together with distributed control based on agent technology are the cornerstones of an EPS. The realization and management of this kind of systems entail an ontological approach due to their implicit complexity. The reference architecture is the key to canalize the underlying holism of an EPS towards an effective instantiation, which exploits the “Emergent Behavior”, the key driver of the Evolvability of a system. The issues related with the application of this view, such as dynamic link between product and system design as well as the management of a module repository, underline the weakness of present business models. Therefore a model for the emplacement of a System that follows the “Evolvable Paradigm” predicament has been produced in order to enable further studies. One of the conclusions of the work is the need for a more suitable approach to business by the main actors involved in the realization of an EPS. Sharing information and standards about product design and modules realization becomes a compulsory strategic choice.

Cloud computing is a new computing paradigm in which information and computing services can be accessed from a Web browser by clients. Understanding of the characteristics of computer service performance has become critical for service applications in cloud computing. For the commercial success of this new computing paradigm, the ability to deliver guaranteed Quality of Services (QoS) is crucial. Based on the Service level agreement, the requests are processed in the cloud centers in different modes. This paper analyzes a finite-buffer multi-server queuing system where client requests have two arrival modes. It is assumed that each arrival mode is serviced by one or more Virtual machines, and both the modes have equal probabilities of receiving service. Various performance measures are obtained and optimal cost policy is presented with numerical results. The genetic algorithm is employed to search the optimal values of various parameters for the system.

AbstractTraditional didactic pedagogies employed within the culture of the Russian higher education system precluded students’ engagement with problems which were described as generating dissonances in learning cognition. Addressing issues of dissonance within the higher education learning sphere requires re-imagining the educational culture. Re-imagining provides an opportunity to promote new approaches to learning through alternative affordances; one such affordance is technology mediated learning.Pedagogical re-design within an alternative learning paradigm requires deep understanding of the problems associated with the previous paradigm. Re-imagined pedagogical scope for exploration of the professional, learning, cultural, institutional and technical aspects expand the knowledge base beyond the didactic towards an engaging student-centered ethos using open education and gamification.To address issues of learning, culture, technology, and institution, a convergent mixed methods design using student questionnaires and academic interviews alongside performance observations was employed. The research study examined the re-imagining of the educational culture to promote new approaches to learning through the affordances of technology mediated learning within a constructivist, critical realism epistemology using thematic analysis.The re-imagined pedagogical design within a technology mediated learning environment demonstrates a cultural shift towards an engaging and supportive educational experience. The lessons learned may be applied in other higher educational contexts.

Regularity detection, or statistical learning, is regarded as a fundamental component of our cognitive system. To test the ability of human participants to detect regularity in a more ecological situation (i.e., mixed with random information), we used a simple letter-naming paradigm in which participants were instructed to name single letters presented one at a time on a computer screen. The regularity consisted of a triplet of letters that were systematically presented in that order. Participants were not told about the presence of this regularity. A variable number of random letters were presented between two repetitions of the regular triplet, making this paradigm similar to a Hebb repetition task. Hence, in this Hebb-naming task, we predicted that if any learning of the triplet occurred, naming times for the predictable letters in the triplet would decrease as the number of triplet repetitions increased. Surprisingly, across four experiments, detection of the regularity only occurred under very specific experimental conditions and was far from a trivial task. Our study provides new evidence regarding the limits of statistical learning and the critical role of contextual information in the detection (or not) of repeated patterns.

Today, Mobile devices are receiving a wide recognition as a cutting-edge technology to assist teaching and learning strategies that harness individual learners’ context. As mobile technology is being resorted to in education systems, tools that help accessing information have changed. In similar fashion, concepts such as Mobile Learning have emerged. Mobile learning is widespread. Furthermore, students nowadays are able to learn regardless of time and place. This is accomplished by mobile technologies and wireless internet connections. Nevertheless, there are still critical challenges regarding this new learning paradigm. In fact, researchers are meeting a difficulty related to providing accessibility for all students. This paper introduces a New Cloud-based Adaptive Mobile Learning System using a Multi-agent paradigm. The system provides adaptive learning content and personalised to the learner’s style and preferences, to increase learner satisfaction and facilitate the learning process. The system was implemented and will be tested with students in a real educational environment.

The sustainability of manufacturing processes lies in industrial planning and productive activity. Industrial plants are characterized by the management of resource (inputs and outputs), processing and conversion processes, which usually are organized in a linear system. Good planning will optimize the manufacturing and promoting the quality of the industrial system. Cradle to Cradle is a new paradigm for engineering and sustainable manufacturing that integrates projects (industrial parks, manufacturing plants, systems and products) in a framework consistent with the environment, adapted to the society and technology and economically viable. To carry it out, we implement this paradigm in the MGE2 (Genomic Model of Eco-innovation and Eco-design), as a methodology for designing and developing products and manufacturing systems with an approach from the cradle to cradle.

Pervasive Information Systems (IS) exemplify a paradigm where Information Technology is embedded in the physical environment, capable of accommodating user needs and wants when desired. Pervasive IS differ from IS that are based on the desktop paradigm In that they encompass a complex, dynamic environment composed of multiple artifacts, capable of perceiving contextual information and supporting user mobility. Building on the novel properties of pervasive IS, we propose a taxonomical framework assessing the level of ‘pervasiveness’ in a given information system. The framework consists of three interweaving dimensions, namely ubiquity (encompassing mobility and heterogeneity), diffusion (encompassing invisibility and interactivity) and contextual awareness. The framework may be employed either to prospectively inform the design of pervasive IS (by pointing towards pertinent design considerations) or to retrospectively assess the pervasiveness of a system and identify improvement opportunities. We demonstrate both uses, firstly by discussing design priorities for ex ante IS evaluation and secondly by showcasing ex post assessments of a domestic and a corporate pervasive IS.

The authors believe that the scale of what is happening today in the world at different levels leads to a substantial change in national structure of Russia. An extensive review of the Russian and international literature on multiculturalism is presented in the article. The concepts of interculturalism, polyculturalism and multiculturalism were reviewed. The authors also argue that the formation of the elite and the content of the state national policy are interrelated. We believe that it is the level of higher education institutions, the results of their research and technology development activities, determines not only their place in the international rankings, but also the dynamics of economic and innovative development of individual territories and entire countries. In the process of forming new paradigm to develop the role of higher education system, there are many factors which effect on this process especially in some countries like Russia and Belarus.

Many animals regularly hoard food for future use, which appears to be an important adaptation to a seasonally and/or unpredictably changing environment. This food-hoarding paradigm is an excellent example of a natural system that has broadly influenced both theoretical and empirical work in the field of biology. The food-hoarding paradigm has played a major role in the conceptual framework of numerous fields from ecology (e.g. plant–animal interactions) and evolution (e.g. the coevolution of caching, spatial memory and the hippocampus) to psychology (e.g. memory and cognition) and neurobiology (e.g. neurogenesis and the neurobiology of learning and memory). Many food-hoarding animals retrieve caches by using spatial memory. This memory-based behavioural system has the inherent advantage of being tractable for study in both the field and laboratory and has been shaped by natural selection, which produces variation with strong fitness consequences in a variety of taxa. Thus, food hoarding is an excellent model for a highly integrative approach to understanding numerous questions across a variety of disciplines. Recently, there has been a surge of interest in the complexity of animal cognition such as future planning and episodic-like-memory as well as in the relationship between memory, the environment and the brain. In addition, new breakthroughs in neurobiology have enhanced our ability to address the mechanisms underlying these behaviours. Consequently, the field is necessarily becoming more integrative by assessing behavioural questions in the context of natural ecological systems and by addressing mechanisms through neurobiology and psychology, but, importantly, within an evolutionary and ecological framework. In this issue, we aim to bring together a series of papers providing a modern synthesis of ecology, psychology, physiology and neurobiology and identifying new directions and developments in the use of food-hoarding animals as a model system.
