Abstract The penetration of the 5G Internet and big data communication into human society brings about the survival basis of the social opportunistic networks. Using mobile terminal devices for communication makes the communication of nodes in the social opportunistic network intermittent, because nodes may be in motion all the time. In social opportunistic networks, data communication activities can be recorded and analyzed by evaluating communication activities of human beings or determining their interest points. However, the identification of nodes with the same or similar types of attributes among a large number of user nodes, has become a research problem in the field of social opportunistic networks. How to find an effective method to classify nodes according to their social characteristics and similarity degree becomes the key point of social opportunistic network data forwarding process. In this study, we proposed a method of community mining by decomposition of node and community relationship matrix with large social network data attributes. By using the regular type and iterative community features among community-rule-meet nodes, the method is proved to be converged and yield a minimum solution. Experimental results show that the proposed method exhibits strong application value.

Based on the Hegelian dialectic of the servant-master, this comedy represents, with the sarcasm and irony typical of its author, a profound reflection on the relationships between human beings. Starting from the local, with a pungent criticism on the social and political condition of Egypt in the Sixties, the two protagonists Farfūr and the Master guide and involve the spectator in a consideration on humanity and on the meaning of life that reaches universality. Divided into two acts, the comedy has no precise indications about time and space, which is confused with the time of representation, also thanks to the involvement of actors who are among the spectators. Discussing each other on names, trades and interpersonal relationships, the two protagonists criticise corruption, poor management of public health, social inequalities, but also the intellectual class that fails to give answers to people’s practical needs. The division in two of human society is even more evident with the second act, when the author’s reflection moves towards the existing organisational and economic systems, dismantling the complexity and reducing them again to a mere servant-master relationship. The other characters of the play are functional to the discourse of Idrīs: wives and children, spectators-actors and especially the figure of the author, who gradually disappears and abandons his own creatures to their fate.

Opportunistic Networking

Since mobile devices nowadays have become ubiquitous, several types of networks formed over such devices have been proposed. One such approach is represented by opportunistic networking, which is based on a store-carry-and-forward paradigm, where nodes store data and carry it until they reach a suitable node for forwarding. The problem in such networks is how to decide what the next hop will be, since nodes do not have a global view of the network. We propose using the social network information of a node when performing routing, since a node is more likely to encounter members of its own social community than other nodes. In addition, we approximate a node’s contact as a Poisson distribution and show that we can predict its future behavior based on the contact history. Furthermore, since opportunistic network nodes may be selfish, we improve our solution by adding a selfish node detection and avoidance mechanism, which can help reduce the number of unnecessary messages sent in the network, and thus avoid congestion and decrease battery consumption. We show that our algorithm outperforms existing solutions such as BUBBLE Rap and Epidemic in terms of delivery cost and hit rate, as well as the rate of congestion introduced in the network, by testing in various realistic scenarios.

The Relationship

Looking at religion from the lens of social theory system, one cannot but, postulate that religion is an expression of the relationship that exists between human beings and the divine. This religious expression by individuals accumulates into plethora of communication within a given society. This paper is solely concerned with communication in religion and religious communication and how they play integrative role in the social cohesion of human society. Methods adopted to achieve the above task are the phenomenological and evaluative methods with support of secondary sources. The research reveals that communication in religion and religious communication are strong and essential agents of social change in any human society; and that, they have also enhanced the lives of individuals in terms of social, moral, mental, spiritual, economic and cultural well-being. The paper concludes that the communicative power of religion should not be underrated by individuals, society and government. And that religion should be used to communicate effectively and positively for the integration and development of modern society.

Communication Scheme

In data communication, a good communication scheme can improve the transmission of data packets among nodes. The opportunistic network is a convenient wireless communication network and its model is easily applied in data communication. Energy consumption among nodes in the opportunistic network is an important parameter. The over-consumption of energy may cause the nodes to be dead, and then many useful data packets would be lost. Especially in data communication, this tendency is obvious. However, many researchers rarely consider energy consumption in the opportunistic network. This paper suggests a scheme in which data packets are transmitted among nodes. Energy supply and equilibrium is found in opportunistic networks. This scheme not only supplies energy to active nodes, but also considers inactive nodes to energy supply objects. Then, this scheme accomplishes data packets transmission and improves energy utilization in the opportunistic network. With the evidence of simulation and comparison of the epidemic algorithm, the direct delivery algorithm, and spray and wait algorithm in the opportunistic network, this scheme can be an equilibrium for energy consumption, for improving the delivering ratio, and the size of the cache time.

Method Of Production

History is the sequential chain of the social structure of human beings. The Vedic Aryan society represents ancient human society. The main objective of this article is to find out the production system of livelihoods and the source of the means of production adopted by the Vedic Aryans. Based on historical facts of ancient civilization obtained through secondary sources, which have been analyzed through historical content analysis method. An attempt has been made in this article to find out the method of production of livelihoods and the source of production adopted by the Vedic Aryans. Men to be more involved in the expansion of resources and livestock and agricultural land, and as women were managing domestic work, the ownership of men over resources increased. Due to the process of state-building, regarding the ownership of resources, it appears that the resources were in the collective right of the family and couldn’t be sold or bought without the permission of the head of the family. We concluded that Mentioned facts are analog to the theory of production system of Karl Marx Sejarah adalah rantai sekuensial dari struktur sosial manusia. Masyarakat Arya Weda mewakili masyarakat manusia purba. Tujuan utama artikel ini adalah untuk mengetahui sistem produksi mata pencaharian dan sumber alat produksi yang diadopsi oleh Arya Weda. Berdasarkan fakta sejarah peradaban kuno diperoleh melalui sumber-sumber sekunder yang dianalisis melalui metode analisis isi sejarah. Sebuah upaya telah dilakukan dalam artikel ini untuk mengetahui metode produksi mata pencaharian dan sumber produksi yang diadopsi oleh para Arya Weda. Laki-laki untuk lebih terlibat dalam perluasan sumber daya dan ternak serta lahan pertanian, dan ketika perempuan mengelola pekerjaan rumah tangga, kepemilikan laki-laki atas sumber daya meningkat. Dalam proses pembangunan negara, mengenai kepemilikan sumber daya, tampak bahwa sumber daya tersebut merupakan hak kolektif keluarga dan tidak dapat dijual atau dibeli tanpa izin kepala keluarga. Kami menyimpulkan bahwa fakta yang disebutkan adalah analog dengan teori sistem produksi Karl Marx

The Impact

Regardless of the development of human society and the introduction of new technologies (information, information-telecommunication), a person is mainly a biosocial being. Besides significant social characteristics and virtues, the main feature of each person is belonging to a large self-sufficient system. Thus, human beings differ from other species since they can exist in nature while creating their own culture and living conditions by means of mental and physical work. With the course of time and the emergence of innovations, the environment where people live undergoes global changes. The speed and extent of technological impact on the environment cannot be assessed due to many factors, including the multiplicative negative effect on the environment caused by products of modern civilization. In this regard, such science as ecology has become especially relevant. Environmental knowledge is vital to make the dream of many generations of thinkers come true and create a decent human environment ensuring the harmony of people and nature. Ecology helps analyze the impact of human life on the environment. The study of ecology cannot be conducted only at the level of the scientific community; each person should know its elementary problems and ways to build their personal life to effectively promote the harmonious development of society. Therefore, this article addresses the problem of environmental education, including the use of modern achievements, such as information, information and telecommunication technologies. The formation of environmental consciousness is necessary so that global problems are not regarded as mythical threats.

This article relates two highly important views on the social characteristics of Humans: Michael Tomasello’s theory regarding the evolutionary difference between nonhuman and human primates and the Human portrait, as seen by Economics. Never before considered together, these two ideas agree and sustain each other. Tomasello´s common psychological infrastructure of shared intention and attention finds reason into the normativity circumscribing economic behavior, where fairness, morality and justice prevail. Correlatively, integrating alterity into one´s utility calculations, observed by Economics, reminds of Tomasello´s self-other equivalence and prosocial motivation as key features of building a human society. Finally, altruism, encompassed effortlessly into Human Behavior, is the fundament of social exchange and evolution.

The p 2 model is a random effects model with covariates for the analysis of binary directed social network data coming from a single observation of a social network. Here, a multilevel variant of the p 2 model is proposed for the case of multiple observations of social networks, for example, in a sample of schools. The multilevel p 2 model defines an identical p 2 model for each independent observation of the social network, where parameters are allowed to vary across the multiple networks. The multilevel p 2 model is estimated with a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm that was implemented in free software for the statistical analysis of complete social network data, called StOCNET. The new model is illustrated with a study on the received practical support by Dutch high school pupils of different ethnic backgrounds.

Quality of life and satisfaction with life as tightly interconnected concepts have become of much importance in the urbanism era. No doubt, it is one of the most important goals of every human society to enhance a citizen’s quality of life and to increase their satisfaction with life. However, there are many signs which demonstrate the low level of life satisfaction of Iranian citizens especially among the youth. Thus, considering the temporal concept of life satisfaction, this research aims to make a futures study in this field. Therefore, using a mixed model and employing research methods from futures studies, life satisfaction among the students of the University of Tehran were measured and their views on this subject investigated. Both quantitative and qualitative data were analysed together in order to test the hypotheses and to address the research questions on the youth discontentment with quality of life. Findings showed that the level of life satisfaction among students is relatively low and their image of the future is not positive and not optimistic. These views were elicited and discussed in the social, economic, political, environmental and technological perspectives. Keywords:  futures studies, quality of life, satisfaction with life, youth

AbstractLookism is a term used to describe discrimination based on the physical appearance of a person. We suppose that the social impact of lookism is a philosophical issue, because, from this perspective, attractive people have an advantage over others. The first line of our argumentation involves the issue of lookism as a global ethical and aesthetical phenomenon. A person’s attractiveness has a significant impact on the social and public status of this individual. The common view in society is that it is good to be more attractive and healthier. This concept generates several ethical questions about human aesthetical identity, health, authenticity, and integrity in society. It seems that this unequal treatment causes discrimination, diminishes self-confidence, and lowers the chance of a job or social enforcement for many human beings. Currently, aesthetic improvements are being made through plastic surgery. There is no place on the human body that we cannot improve with plastic surgery or aesthetic medicine. We should not forget that it may result in the problem of elitism, in dividing people into primary and secondary categories. The second line of our argumentation involves a particular case of lookism: Melanie Gaydos. A woman that is considered to be a model with a unique look.
