This chapter discusses contemporary debates regarding the use of artificial intelligence as a vehicle for criminal justice reform. It closely examines two general approaches to what has been widely branded as “algorithmic fairness” in criminal law: the development of formal fairness criteria and accuracy measures that illustrate the trade-offs of different algorithmic interventions; and the development of “best practices” and managerialist standards for maintaining a baseline of accuracy, transparency, and validity in these systems. Attempts to render AI-branded tools more accurate by addressing narrow notions of bias miss the deeper methodological and epistemological issues regarding the fairness of these tools. The key question is whether predictive tools reflect and reinforce punitive practices that drive disparate outcomes, and how data regimes interact with the penal ideology to naturalize these practices. The chapter then calls for a radically different understanding of the role and function of the carceral state, as a starting place for re-imagining the role of “AI” as a transformative force in the criminal legal system.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) compose a heterogenous group of membrane-derived particles, including exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic bodies, which are released into the extracellular environment in response to proinflammatory or proapoptotic stimuli. From earlier studies suggesting that EV shedding constitutes a cellular clearance mechanism, it has become evident that EV formation, secretion and uptake represent important mechanisms of intercellular communication and exchange of a wide variety of molecules, with relevance in both physiological and pathological situations. The putative role of EVs in hemostasis and thrombosis is supported by clinical and experimental studies unraveling how these cell-derived structures affect clot formation (and resolution). From those studies, it has become clear that the prothrombotic effects of EVs are not restricted to the exposure of tissue factor (TF) and phosphatidylserines (PS), but also involve multiplication of procoagulant surfaces, cross-linking of different cellular players at the site of injury and transfer of activation signals to other cell types. Here, we summarize the existing and novel clinical and experimental evidence on the role and function of EVs during arterial and venous thrombus formation and how they may be used as biomarkers as well as therapeutic vectors.

The purpose of this research is to describe the role of the clerics to actualize good governance concept in the development of Makassar City. Therefore, clerics are not merely issuing “fatwas” (religious advises) for the sake of society, but also, clerics can also play a role in development process. The method applied in this research is a descriptive method. While the approach applied is a qualitative method because the issues that are studied are phenomenological. The results show that the role of clerics is optimal in actualizing good governance concept in Makassar City development process. The role and function of the clerics can be represented as a community counselor in line with the government's role as servant and protector of society. Moreover, the policy taken by the government has been supported by all the clerics in actualizing development programs for the mutual good of the societies. In making strategic decisions, clerics sometimes contribute and suggestions to the government to improve social support of that decision

Like international legal scholarship, LJIL is in transition. Our colleagues, Larissa van den Herik and Jean d'Aspremont, who have shaped much of the role and plural identity of the journal over the past decade, in collaboration with our different sections, have passed leadership on to us, the new team of (co-)editors-in-chief. This editorial reflects on the changing role and function of scholarship in international law, a theme important to our predecessors and ourselves. This is to some extent a niche area. It has not received much attention in discourse. With some notable exceptions, legal journals are typically reluctant to address overarching meta-issues of discourse, i.e. issues of production of scholarship, the role of journals vis-à-vis other media, or the broader direction of the development of international legal scholarship. Such issues might be perceived as non-scientific by some. We feel that it is important to include such dimensions, including critical self-reflection on our discipline, in international legal discourse.

Abstract Biological membranes are dynamic and complex assemblies of lipids and proteins. Eukaryotic lipidomes encompass hundreds of distinct lipid species and we have only begun to understand their role and function. This review focuses on recent advances in the field of lipid sensors and discusses methodical approaches to identify and characterize putative sensor domains. We elaborate on the role of integral and conditionally membrane-associated sensor proteins, their molecular mechanisms, and identify open questions in the emerging field of membrane homeostasis.

Penanganan pesawat di bandar udara atau ground handling mempunyai fungsi dan peranan penting dalam menjaga keselamatan penerbangan. Sesuai prosedur dalam sistem operasional harus benar benar ditaati dan dijalankan. Peristiwa yang pernah terjadi pada Turkish Airlines penerbangan nomor 981 yang melakukan penerbangan dari Istanbul, Turki menuju London melalui Paris kemudian pada tanggal 3 Maret 1974, pesawat tersebut berakhir celaka sesaat setelah keluar wilayah Paris. Pintu kargo di bagian belakang bawah pesawat terlepas. Menyebabkan dekompresi dan memutus kabel kabel kontrol pesawat. Pilot kehilangan kontrol atas pesawat sehingga pesawat kemudian jatuh menukik. Semua penumpang dan awak pesawat McDonnel Douglas DC 10 yang berjumlah 346 ditemukan tewas. Sebagai upaya dalam meningkatkan keselamatan penerbangan khususnya di bandar udara, maka perlu dilakukan kajian tentang human factor tentang ground handling di sisi udara. Maksud kajian adalah untuk mengevaluasi bagaimana peran ground handling di bandar udara dan bagaimana manajemen dalam mencegah faktor human error. Kajian human factor personel ground handling di Bandara Adi Sucipto yang difokuskan pada sisi udara menemukan hasil bahwa pekerjaan ground handling yang mempunyai human error probability HEP tertinggi personel ground handling dalam menjalankan tugasnya adalah terburu buru menempatkan forward airstair sehingga menabrak pesawat, bagasi yang jatuh dari bag carts dan tugs and tractor saling bertabrakan karena area sempit. Seluruhnya mendapat nilai 0.1800 sedangkan HEP operator tidak melock forward airstairs mendapatkan nilai 0.0900 [The Study of Human Factor of Ground Handling Human Resources in Yogyakarta Adi Sucipto Airport] The aircraft handling in the airport, named as ground handling, has important role and function in maintaining the aviation safety. In accordance with the stated procedures, ground handling operations must be obeyed and held appropriately. The accident related with aircraft mishandling was happened on Turkish Airlines flight number 981 which departed from Istanbul, Turkey, to London via Paris at 3 March 1974, The accident took place shortly after flew out of Paris area. The cargo door at the lower aft of aircraft was detached and causing decompression and cutting off the control cables of the aircraft. The pilot lost control and the aircraft crashed. All 346 of the passengers and cabin crews of the McDonnel Douglas DC 10 aircraft found dead. In the effort of improving the aviation safety, particularly in the airport, it is necessary to examine the human factor of ground handling in the air side of the airport. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of ground handling and propose the operational management which can prevent the occurrence of human error. The results of this study indicate that ground handling works with high Human Error Probability HEP are forward air stair that is placed hastily by ground handling personnel that it collides with the aircraft, falling baggage from bag carts, and collision of tugs and tractor due to narrow area. All of three works with high HEP have the score of 0.1800 whilst the operator who does not lock the forward air stair has the score of 0.0900
