In contemporary power systems, the load shedding schemes are typically based on disconnecting a pre-specified amount of load after the frequency drops below a predetermined value. The actual conditions at the time of disturbance may largely differ from the assumptions, which can lead to non-optimal or ineffective operation of the load shedding scheme. For many years, increasing the effectiveness of the underfrequency load shedding (UFLS) schemes has been the subject of research around the world. Unfortunately, the proposed solutions often require costly technical resources and/or large amounts of real-time data monitoring. This paper puts forth an UFLS scheme characterized by increased effectiveness in the case of large disturbances and reduced disconnected power in the case of small and medium disturbances compared to the conventional load-shedding solutions. These advantages are achieved by replacing time-consuming consecutive load dropping with the simultaneous load dropping mechanism and by replacing ineffective fixed-frequency activation thresholds independent of the state of the system with implicit adaptive thresholds based on fuzzy logic computations. The proposed algorithm does not require complex and costly technical solutions. The performance of the proposed scheme was validated using multivariate computer simulations. Selected test results are included in this paper.

The interest in data science is increasing in recent years. Data science, including mathematics, statistics, big data, machine learning, and deep learning, can be considered as the intersection of statistics, mathematics and computer science. Although the debate continues about the core area of data science, the subject is a huge hit. Universities have a high demand for data science. They are trying to live up to this demand by opening postgraduate and doctoral programs. Since the subject is a new field, there are significant differences between the programs given by universities in data science. Besides, since the subject is close to statistics, most of the time, data science programs are opened in the statistics departments, and this also causes differences between the programs. In this article, we will summarize the data science education developments in the world and in Turkey specifically and how data science education should be at the graduate level.


As an introduction to the subject of future accelerators, it will be useful to consider briefly the main points of discussion at the three international conferences on a similar theme held in 1956, 1959 and 1961. In 1956 there were several laboratories, in different parts of the world, engaged in building machines based on the latest important new principle in accelerator design, namely, alternating-gradient focusing. There was a feeling, however, that the end of the road had not yet been reached, and at the 1956 Conference the success of earlier innovations encouraged the accelerator physicists to present a number of new ideas. Some of them were rather natural extensions of known principles, as, for example, a machine of fixed frequency with alternating-gradient focusing (F. F. A. G. ; see Kerst et al. 1956). This was also the first conference at which there were serious suggestions for colliding-beam experiments (Kerst 1956). The ideas presented by the Russian physicists were much more spectacular; in particular the suggestion of Budker (1956) for setting up very large neutralized electron currents to provide guiding fields in the mega-gauss region.

Ever since the results of the International Achievement Tests in Mathematics were announced, much interest has been expressed in the outstanding performance made by the Japanese students.1 The test results displayed an accomplishment that at age thirteen, and overall, was far su perior to the other countries involved. Many analyses have been made of the subject matter involved in the questions, of the type of questions, of the teachers of the students, and of the curricula of each of the countries, to either sustain or disprove popularly expressed superiority of Japanese mathematics education. This article merely reviews the existing structure of Japanese education and points to some unique features of Japanese culture that may offer a partial explanation. It is not intended in any sense to suggest that the Japanese program or its culture— which is evidently satisfying to their own people—is one that would be satisfactory for others. It is merely one of many cultures which we should corne to under stand as the world grows closer knit in its forward progress.

Today, the world has heard a lot about artificial intelligence (AI) and its influence in accomplishing responsibilities, and it has become famous through films, series TV and social networking sites. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a combination of algorithms and techniques developed by developers and programmers to build metal bodies that can work for centuries with individuals. Despite the interest of everyone in this topic and its spread significantly, most people do not have adequate knowledge and understanding of this science. This science is considered as one of the essential topics in computer sciences and engineering. In this article, it has been decided to write an overview on the topic of artificial intelligence and understand how its ideas started and spread universally. In addition, there is a review of Expert Systems, Artificial Neural Networks, Fuzzy Logic, and AI applications in the medical field and power systems, especially in investigating lung images of people with COVID-19. The idea presented in this article is that the future will soon come when humans and machines will merge into cyborgs or cybernetic creatures, and they will work together when completing tasks. This idea is described as transhumanism.

The subject of alignment is not new to the world of education. Today however, it has come to mean different things and to have a heuristic value in education according to research in different areas, not least for neuroscience, and to attention to skills and to the alternation framework.This paper, after looking at the classic references that already attributed an important role to alignment in education processes, looks at the strategic role of alignment in the current context, outlining the shared construction processes and focusing on some of the ways in which this is put into effect.Alignment is part of a participatory, enactive approach that gives a central role to the interaction between teaching and learning, avoiding the limits of behaviourism, which has a greater bias towards teaching, and cognitivism/constructivism, which focus their attention on learning and in any case, on that which separates a teacher preparing the environment and a student working in it.
