Abstract Unmanned driving is the future development direction of the automobile industry, and intelligent driving detection is one of the important research topics. In order to improve driverless technology and traffic safety, this design is based on FPGA technology to design a driving detection system, combined with off-chip SDRAM’s high-speed, large-capacity cache and image processing related algorithms, and it will achieve the function of acquiring target image, cache, detection and display. Finally, the FPGA development board is used to test the driving detection system, which demonstrates that this driving detection system can better improve the safety monitoring problems in unmanned driving. At the same time, the system’s frame rate is close to 55pfs, which has practical significance and application value.

Abstract The field of social network studies has been growing within the last 40 years, gathering scholars from a wide range of disciplines (biology, chemistry, geography, international relations, mathematics, political sciences, sociology etc.) and covering diverse substantive research topics. Using Google metrics, the scientific production within the field it is shown to follow an ascending trend since the late 60s. Within the Romanian sociology, social network analysis is still in his early spring, network studies being low in number and rather peripheral. This note gives a brief overview of social network analysis and makes some short references to the current state of the network studies within Romanian sociology

The paper considers the issues, particularly relevant for the current state of society, regarding the unrestrained distribution of advertising messages in the architectural environment, especially in the underground space of the metro. As a result of this expansion, copyright is violated, the architectural image is distorted, extraneous meanings are introduced, and a “carnival" style is formed that is not typical for engineering infrastructure facilities. The necessity is postulated to involve the community in the process of forming an opinion regarding these phenomena and making certain decisions. A methodology is proposed for assessing the opinions of consumers, in this case, passengers of the Kharkiv Metro. Questions have been developed in order to record and scale respondents' opinions. Key words: architectural environment, outdoor advertising, brand, architectural image, visual perception, metro space.

One of the most prominent representatives of Lviv Slavic studies, an active organiser of science, Professor Volodymyr Motornyi was a famous representative of Bohemistics. Along with Professor Kostiantyn Trofymovych, he launched the Ukrainian scientific school of Sorbian studies, actively studied and popularised the literature and culture of various Slavic nations. One can hardly overestimate his contribution to the development of Ukrainian science being a talented teacher who educated many generations of young Slavists, was a co-organiser of the Lviv International Slavic Colloquia, as well as numerous scientific and cultural events.

The principles of scientific attribution of liturgical cyrillic manuscripts, which has been worked out by author, are examined. The thorough study of Jerusalem Ecclesiastic Typikon from the rare books and manuscripts department’s collection of Maksymovych Scientific Library of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv is conducted. The stages of manuscript attribution are analyzed, including the date identification and localization of its origins and use. The type and the title of the codex have been identificated by the analysis of book’s texts. The linguistic variant of Church Slavonic language, used for re-writing the copy, is revealed, which has helped to localize the place of creation. Detailed watermark analysis of paper, which the copy had been made of, has allowed to estimate date range of its production. The problematic ascertainment of the date of creation has been also supported by the analysis of the textual sources, studying of palaeographic peculiarities of cyrillic script book, the inner book’s decorative features. The problem of binding production date, its construction, materials and design, is formulated. The state of preservation of manuscript is analysed, which led the author to understanding the extent of book’s relevance for its readers. The history of manuscript restoration and its stages have been studied. The places of use and migration of the copy are revealed on the basis of provenance examination up till its arrival to Maksymovych Scientific Library’s rare books collection. Key words: Jerusalem Ecclesiastic Typikon, manuscript, Cyrillic manuscript, attribution, codicology, Maksymovych Scientific Library of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv.

El presente trabajo reflexiona sobre la situación de la investigación en el campo del Trabajo Social en Argentina y más específicamente su desarrollo en la Facultad de Trabajo Social de la Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos. El recorrido se inicia recuperando a los precursores en el ámbito de las investigaciones sociales que básicamente están ligadas a los movimientos de reforma social. En esa breve incursión resultan interesantes los aportes provenientes de la historiografía de las mujeres. Luego se aborda la actualidad de la investigación de Trabajo Social en el contexto argentino donde se avizoran renovados desarrollos que contribuyen a la consolidación del campo profesional.This paper serves to reflect on the research situation in the field of social work in Argentina and more specifically its development at the Faculty of Social Work in the National University of Entre Ríos. We started off by recovering the forerunners of social research, which is mainly linked to social reform movements. In this brief incursion into the field, the contributions based on the historiography of women proved to be of interest. The research into social work was then looked at in its current state within the Argentinean context, where renewed progress was examined leading to the consolidation of the professional field.

This year we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Department of Geomorphology (since 2000 – Geomorphology and Paleogeography) of the Faculty of Geography, Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, formed on the basis of the existing Lviv school of geography, which possessed old traditions and scientific achievements in the research of relief, in particular, of its development and formation. On the occasion of the anniversary, the article attempts to analyze the main achievements of the Department over the 70-year period, to highlight the main stages of its development and to outline the new challenges facing the Department today. There is the “Engineering, ecological and regional geomorphology” scientific school successfully functioning at the Department. Within its borders, the “Paleogeography of the Pleistocene” research direction is rapidly developing with significant achievements recognized at the international level. Anthropogenic and dynamic geomorphology, historical and geographical research, and geomorphological mapping with the use of GIS and remote sensing have been intensively developed. Over the last decade, research on the environmental issues, including spatial planning and design of nature reserves and ecological networks, as well as the study of geoheritage, geotourism and geoeducation have been singled out into independent areas. Overall, there are four development stages of the Department: the first ‒ from its foundation (1950) till 1970, the second ‒ during 1971-1990, the third ‒ during 1990-2010, and the fourth ‒ from 2010 till present. For each of them, the main scientific and practical achievements of the Department are briefly analyzed. The most important event in the first stage was the launching of fundamental comprehensive regional research, including the Ukrainian Carpathians, under the supervision of P. Tsys; in the second one ‒ the development of regional and engineering-geomorphological research and the introduction of stationary and semi-stationary research of modern relief-forming processes for the first time in Ukraine; in the third one ‒ the formation of a research school of engineering, ecological and regional geomorphology and the rapid development of Pleistocene paleogeography, as well as of environmental research; in the fourth one ‒ active development of the “Engineering, Ecological and Regional Geomorphology” scientific school and of the “Pleistocene Paleogeography” research direction, as well as of the investigations related to geoheritage, geotourism and geoeducation. The main current challenges are outlined at the end of the article. Key words: geomorphology; paleogeography; stages of development; scientific school; research directions; research; achievements; challenges.
