Interaction of Internet Addiction with FoMO

This study shows that digital media increases internet addiction and FoMO due to the impact of digitalization. As digitalization expands day by day and becomes a platform that can be addressed in its needs such as socialization, people's dependence on the internet is also increasing. Currently, digitalization also uses digital citizenship and digital identity as auxiliary elements. Without digital citizenship and digital identity, the impact of digitalization will also decrease. Digital citizenship and digital identity separate people from the normal and physical world and involve them in the digital plane. In this process, internet addiction is exposed due to the need to socialize, and individuals become even more dependent for socializing reasons. FoMO, on the other hand, is another indicator that addiction is growing. FoMO is increasing digital needs as there is a fear of missing out on the processes that are happening. As a result, internet addiction and FoMO are directly proportional to the increase in digital citizenship and digital identity.

Convexity and freezing sets in digital topology

<p>We continue the study of freezing sets in digital topology, introduced in [4]. We show how to find a minimal freezing set for a "thick" convex disk X in the digital plane Z^2. We give examples showing the significance of the assumption that X is convex.</p>

Digital Jordan Curves and Surfaces with Respect to a Closure Operator

In this paper, we propose new definitions of digital Jordan curves and digital Jordan surfaces. We start with introducing and studying closure operators on a given set that are associated with n-ary relations (n > 1 an integer) on this set. Discussed are in particular the closure operators associated with certain n-ary relations on the digital line ℤ. Of these relations, we focus on a ternary one equipping the digital plane ℤ2 and the digital space ℤ3 with the closure operator associated with the direct product of two and three, respectively, copies of this ternary relation. The connectedness provided by the closure operator is shown to be suitable for defining digital curves satisfying a digital Jordan curve theorem and digital surfaces satisfying a digital Jordan surface theorem.

Don't Let Kellys Go to Hell

This chapter aims to make the most of the lessons learned due to the Spanish cleaning ladies' crisis in order to bring useful recommendations abroad. Spain has been the cradle of Las Kellys, a cleaning women union turned into a social movement that has disclosed the outsourcing-driven precariousness that preys on thousands of women. This chapter uses those maids' struggle for dignity at work to expose how oppression hides even in very highly developed countries. Oppression may crouch behind a gender gap or sit in a manager's desk when a job applicant is discriminated against by her nationality or gender. And, of course, oppression may appear in the digital plane as it engulfs labor dignity everywhere. Apropos of global events, this chapter will focus on how the COVID-19 pandemic has hit the maids' lives and on their brave stand against rising discrimination, aggravated vulnerability, and belittled human rights. Finally, this chapter gathers the opinions of two vet Kellys about their situation in order to better illustrate its content.

CENTER OF AGRICULTURAL COMPETENCIES AS AN INNOVATIVE MECHANISM OF THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR MANAGEMENT

The article identifies the main theoretical and methodological foundations for the formation of the agricultural competence center (AC) on an innovative basis. It is proposed to introduce the best world practice of the Extension system as a basis, which will enable the subjects of the agricultural sector to improve the methods of agriculture and technology through educational and practical activities, targeted transfer of know-how. The formation of the AC region in the context of cluster development is the basis for increasing the competitiveness of the agar sector of the region and the country as a whole. It should concentrate on ensuring equal competitive conditions for all actors of the agricultural sector. The main purpose of creating AC on an innovative basis in the region is to consolidate the efforts of government, business and science for economic development of the region, aimed at solving socio-economic problems. Within the framework of the regional AC, the organization of Agribusiness Incubators is proposed, which will provide a rapid increase in the level of innovation and stability in the agricultural sector of the economy. The main strategic prospects for the development of AC have been identified. AC allows for greater flexibility, adaptability and mobility of the association. As a result, the form of cooperation will provide an opportunity to ensure: interaction of scientific and educational institutions, authorities, agribusiness structures and their public organizations to obtain a synergistic effect; reduction of total costs for research and development of innovations with their subsequent commercialization due to high efficiency of production and technological structure; more efficient use of infrastructural and scientific potential of the region; implementation of potentially significant financial and innovation-investment projects; mobilization of disparate investment resources, their accumulation and transformation into productive capital. Proposed the creation of Agribusiness Incubators within the regional AC, which are a key element of strategy in the agricultural sector to rapidly increase the level of innovation and stability in the agricultural sector of the region and the country as a whole. The creation of Agribusiness Incubators will increase the economic potential of entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector and create conditions for self-employment in the region. The agribusiness incubator will be a platform for public-private dialogue, training and exchange of best practices in the agricultural sector. The creation of the proposed AC is a tool for leveling the global challenges facing the region and the state as a whole. Such global challenges may include demographic decline and urbanization, increased competition, the growing role of digital technologies and the shift of quality jobs from production and marketing to the digital plane, investors' willingness to return on investment and, consequently, their unwillingness to invest in the industry.

Digital Objects in Rhombic Dodecahedron Grid

Rhombic dodecahedron is a space filling polyhedron which represents the close packing of spheres in 3D space and the Voronoi structures of the face centered cubic (FCC) lattice. In this paper, we describe a new coordinate system where every 3-integer coordinates grid point corresponds to a rhombic dodecahedron centroid. In order to illustrate the interest of the new coordinate system, we propose the characterization of 3D digital plane with its topological features, such as the interrelation between the thickness of the digital plane and the separability constraint we aim to obtain. We also present the characterization of 3D digital lines and study it as the intersection of multiple digital planes. Characterization of 3D digital sphere with relevant topological features is proposed as well along with the 48-symmetry appearing in the new coordinate system.

A closure operator for the digital plane

We introduce and study a closure operator on the digital plane Z2. The closure operator is shown to provide connectedness that allows for a digital analogue of the Jordan curve theorem. This enables using the closure operator for structuring the digital plane in order to study and process digital images. An advantage of the closure operator over the Khalimsky topology on Z2 is demonstrated, too.
