The research in the field of speech genres has initiated discussions among scientists and led to the emergence of numerous analyses in recent years. Eminent Ukrainian and foreign scientists have dedicated their in-depth studies to the classification of speech genres, finding and underlining their basic characteristics. They have introduced their own definitions of the term speech genre and schemes that scientists can use with the aim of indentifying the hypergenre and the subgenres. Having analyzed the contributions of the above-mentioned researchers, we could not find the definition of the speech genre in medical subject area. The term that defines the speech genre in medical subject area as a separate genre has not been introduced yet. Rapid development of mass media, the creation of new web sites and the introduction of TV programmes which dwell upon medical problems, diseases and disorders giving both expert and public opinions on the issue have caused the appearance of the new hypergenre in medical subject area. The scientists could not have introduced the term earlier due to the fact that the genre did not exist until the end of the twentieth century. Nowadays, more and more subgenres are appearing. Consequently, we realize that the analysis of the hypergenre and subgenres in medical subject area is impossible without a proper definition. Not only does the lack of the definition exist, but also we lack the questionnaire which will enable us to study the speech genre in medical subject area taking into account its unique features. We must devote scrupulous attention to the existing speech genre questionnaires. Furthermore, we have to study hypertextuality that is typical of speech genres in medical subject area in English mass media. We have created the questionnaire on the basis of the already existing questionnaires with the aim of conducting a thorough research into speech genres in medical subject area and identifying the subgenres of this hypergenre. The most distinctive features that are typical of the genre include exact sphere of genre use, hypertextuality and indirect speech act.

The Web

The main argument of this paper is that the Web is well suited for the role of a streetwise informant for protest events. Using special software, we plot the network of Web sites of organisations related to the meat and anti-globalization protests in Milau, France, in June of 2000, and compare our findings about the nature of the actors with the reports in the mass media. Not only do the findings deepen mass media accounts but they also point to a new web-sociological means to re-open the question of the real. Putting on display the institutional dimension of the protest, the Web network simultaneously undermines and enriches the mass media accounts of the protests. The Web may provide a reality check on existing accounts of the protest and document encounters between opposing definitions of reality. Our analysis also suggests the Web can be harnessed to complicate the definition of real social action.

Goal Realization

The article studies a speech genre of an expert report. The study focuses on the realization of the most significant genre-forming feature – the communicative goal of an expert report. Scientific novelty is connected with the fact that an expert report is studied in the context of being a result of speech activity; within the theory of speech genres and communicative linguistics. The article focuses on the basic characteristics of the genre, its communicative goal-setting peculiarities, and the influence of an expert report type on the communicative goal realization. The analysis shows that the speech genre of an expert report is included into the terminological and actual boundaries of a wider and larger phenomenon, known as a speech event, which is realized by a set of speech genres and represents a form of organization of communication with certain participants. As a speech event, an expert report possesses a complex ritualized nature which makes it possible to define it as a complex speech event. The article studies the speech genre of an expert report as a leading genre of a speech event with the same name. The analysis has found out a dual trend of an expert report in communicative goal-setting, represented by: 1) information communication (informative objective) and 2) evaluation expression (evaluative objective). The balance between the two objectives is determined by an expert report type. Expert reports of traditional (special-purpose) type are found to appeal to consciousness and logic with the informative illocution being a predominant goal; while in case of humanitarian expert reports, subjective emotional experience and assessment serve the same purpose being applied in practice in the dominating evaluative illocution.

With the rapid development and application of medical sensor networks, the security has become a big challenge to be resolved. Trust mechanism as a method of “soft security” has been proposed to guarantee the network security. Trust models to compute the trustworthiness of single node and each path are constructed, respectively, in this paper. For the trust relationship between nodes, trust value in every interval is quantified based on Bayesian inference. A node estimates the parameters of prior distribution by using the collected recommendation information and obtains the posterior distribution combined with direct interactions. Further, the weights of trust values are allocated through using the ordered weighted vector twice and overall trust degree is represented. With the associated properties of Tsallis entropy, the definition of path Tsallis entropy is put forward, which can comprehensively measure the uncertainty of each path. Then a method to calculate the credibility of each path is derived. The simulation results show that the proposed models can correctly reflect the dynamic of node behavior, quickly identify the malicious attacks, and effectively avoid such path containing low-trust nodes so as to enhance the robustness.

The Impact

In the modern Russian philosophy, discussions about the phenomenon of computer simulations in the scientific research practice of conducting experiments are just beginning to pass the stage of initiation in small interdisciplinary groups studying this new direction for the philosophy of science. At the same time, in Western philosophy by the current moment there have been formed entire directions for the study of computer simulations. Different groups of researchers in different ways form ideas about the basic characteristics of simulations: from skeptical views on their nature, which are of no philosophical interest, to extremely revolutionary attitudes that assign simulations to the main role in the next expected turn of philosophy, comparable in its power to the linguistic turn in early XX century. One of the main controversial issues in Western philosophical thought was the search for relevant criteria and signs of simulations that could create a solid basis for formulating a rigorous definition of this phenomenon. Thus, through the definition, researchers first of all try, on the one hand, to solve the taxonomic problem of the correlation and interconnection of simulations with other types of experiment: natural, laboratory, mental, mathematical. On the other hand, to reveal for philosophy ontological and epistemological foundations of simulations, which carry the potential of new philosophical knowledge. This article is devoted to a brief review of the existing concepts of representatives of Western schools of thought on the phenomenon of computer simulations in the context of the philosophy of science. The structure of the review is built on three basic conceptual directions: 1) definition of the term "computer simulation"; 2) computer simulations as an experiment; 3) the epistemic value of simulations. Such a review can become the subject of discussion for Russian researchers interested in the impact of computer simulations on science and philosophy.

The Impact

The development of digital technologies, coupled with progress in the development of self-learning programs based on AI (Artificial Intelligence), has obvious advantages in improving the effectiveness of information impact on people around the world. During the 2010s, researchers have documented trends in the use of artificial intelligence for the construction and distribution of media content to indirectly manipulate political discourse at the national and global levels. Special interest in the context of this issue is how the rapid development of AI technologies affects political communication. The object of consideration within the framework of this article is the deepfake technology. Based on this, as a subject, the authors define deepfake as a phenomenon of modern political communication. Accordingly, the purpose of the study is to describe and predict the impact of deepfake technology on political communication at the global and national levels. The paper presents the definition of deepfake, assesses its characteristics depending on the methods and purposes of its distribution, and analyzes the prospects for using this tool to influence political discourse in modern Russia. To study the subject field of the research, methods of systematizing theoretical data, classification, analysis of a set of factors and forecasting have been applied. The practical significance of the work is presented by the authors’ definition and typology of the phenomenon of deepfake and describes its significance as a factor of political communication on the example of a particular country. The results of the work will be useful for researchers studying the problems of digitalization of the media space and modern means of disinformation in politics, both at the local and global levels

Active introduction of digital technologies in all spheres of life is one of the main directions of state development as a whole and separate sphere of activity. The issue of using information technologies and systems during forensic examination is the subject of scientific research of many domestic and foreign scientists, but this sphere remains relevant. The introduction of digital technologies in forensic activities is one of the priority areas for the forensic science development at the present stage and has significant development potential. One of the areas of optimization and improvement of forensic activity is the development of methods to automate the formation of forensic experts and unify the description of the research process, identified features, justification and formulation of forensic conclusions, which requires legislative consolidation and regulation, analysis and definition of the subject area and development requirements and algorithms for the operation of the system interface. Unification and standardization of the content of forensic experts' opinions requires the development of common standards and an information system adopted by all subjects of forensic expertise, and meets the needs of practice. The development of an information system for forming an expert opinion and automatically forming an expert opinion will allow formalizing and unifying the description of research and results of forensic examinations, optimizing the time of forensic experts and potentially reducing the number of logical, typographical and technical errors, and simplifying quality control of forensic examinations. The proposed system will not only automate the technical work of registration of research results carried out during forensic examinations, but will also contain research algorithms, which will be stored in the form of data on already conducted research of similar objects (list and sequence of operations, identified features and their parameters).

ResumoO contributo de diferentes ramos da ciência no desenvolvimento do conhecimento e no seu ensino em múltiplas áreas disciplinares é incontestável. No caso da Enfermagem de Saúde Infantil e Pediátrica, numa lógica de similitude, associamo-la à medicina, particularmente ao ramo da Pediatria. Cedo percebemos que essa associação é reducionista. A história mostra-nos que o seu desenvolvimento também se deve a ciências como biologia, antropologia, filosofia, psicologia, sociologia e ciências da educação entre outras. Este entendimento conduz-nos ao conhecimento do contexto histórico da definição de infância e adolescência, dois conceitos indissociáveis da necessidade de se ensinar enfermagem e medicina específicas para estes grupos etários. Até ao século XII era desconhecida a representação de crianças em obras de arte e segundo Aries (1981)1 tal deve-se à pouca importância dada a estes seres. Nos séculos seguintes operaram-se modificações. As mais consistentes datam dos séculos XVII e XVIII. É inegável o contributo de Rousseau (1762)2 com Émile não só pelo impacto cultural, mas pelas consequências daí resultantes quando explorados os aspetos filosóficos e pedagógicos da obra. Com a Revolução Industrial tiveram início medidas de proteção da criança contra trabalhos insalubres e para satisfazer as suas necessidades de saúde. Em França surgiram os primeiros conceitos e trabalhos sobre puericultura que se expandiram a outros países da Europa. Querendo aprofundar o conhecimento, através de análise bibliográfica, sobre a evolução do ensino de Enfermagem de Saúde Infantil e Pediátrica e das implicações de diferentes ramos da ciência na mesma, procurámos refletir sobre o contributo que, ao longo dos anos, as diferentes áreas científicas deram para esta área disciplinar. Palavras chave: Ensino; Enfermagem pediátrica. Abstract The contribution of different branches of science to the development of knowledge and its teaching in multiple subject areas is undeniable. In the case of Infant Health and Pediatric Nursing, in a logic of similarity, we associate it with medicine, particularly the branch of Pediatrics. We soon realize that this is a reductionist association. History shows us that its development is also due to sciences such as biology, anthropology, philosophy, psychology, sociology and the educational sciences, among others. This understanding leads us to the knowledge of the historical context of the definition of childhood and adolescence, two concepts inseparable from the need to teach nursing and medicine specific to these age groups. Until the 12th century the representation of children was unknown in works of art and according to Aries (1981)3 this is due to the little importance given to these beings. In the following centuries modifications took place. The most consistent date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Rousseau's (1762)4 contribution with Émile is undeniable, not only for its cultural impact, but also for the consequences resulting from the examination of the work’s philosophical and pedagogical aspects. With the Industrial Revolution, measures began to protect children against unhealthy work and to meet their health needs. In France came the first concepts and works on childcare that expanded to other countries in Europe. Wanting to increase knowledge, through literature review, about the evolution of the Infant Health and Pediatric Nursing teaching and the implications of different branches of science in it, we tried to reflect on the contribution that these have made to this subject area over the years.
