Teaching and Learning in the Scientific Hawza (Analytical Study)

Education and learning in the scholarly Hawza is an old one that dates back to the era of prophecy and the final message, and one of its most prominent features is its time extension, and the predominance of micro-education over the rest of the types of education, taking mosques as a place for it, then progressed and became in line with formal education in innovation, technology, and the diversity of the curriculum. It also collects the six official academic stages (elementary, intermediate, preparatory, elementary university studies, postgraduate university studies in its master's and doctoral levels) in three stages (introductions - surfaces - diligence). The researcher reviewed the methods and methods of seminary teaching and learning in its most famous cities, from Makkah and Madinah, through Baghdad and Najaf, to Isfahan and Khorasan, in addition to the curricula and schools that included males and females.

CONSTRUCTION DISPUTE AND CONTRACT DOCUMENT DEFECTIVENESS: TESTING MODERATING EFFECT OF BIM

Construction dispute is the result of contract incompleteness caused by bounded rationality and uncertainty. These disputes are prevalent and have a detrimental effect on project success in terms of increased cost, low quality of work, loss of profit, time extension, and damaged business and professional relationships. Using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), this study examines the relationship between contract defectiveness (one of the bounded rationality classes) and dispute occurrence and the moderating effect of BIM on the causal relationship. The result shows that contract document defectiveness has a significant effect on dispute occurrence. Likewise, the multigroup moderation test revealed a significant, positive, and more substantial impact on the BIM user group. Therefore, it can be posited based on this study's findings that BIM has a significant effect on reducing contract document defectiveness, which is one of the potential benefits of its adoption on construction projects.

Heterogeneous traffic flow model under connected vehicles environment considering cyberattacks

Under the Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) environment, connected vehicles (CVs) can share the traveling information with each other to keep the traffic flow stable. However, the open network cooperation environment makes CVs vulnerable to cyberattacks, which leads to changes in driving behavior. The existing theories divide cyberattacks into three types: bogus information, replay/delay and collusion cyberattacks. In addition, the mixed flow consisting of truck and car is a common form of road traffic. In order to clarify the potential impact of cyberattacks on mixed traffic flow, this paper proposes an extended car-following model considering cyberattacks under CVs environment. Subsequently, the stability of the model is analyzed theoretically, and the stability condition of the model is obtained. The numerical simulation is carried out and the result shows that the cyberattacks lead to different degrees of traffic behavior hazards such as queue time extension, congestion and even rear end collision. Among them, cooperative attack is the most serious.

A Hybrid Multiprocessor Scheduler for Soft Real-Time System with Processor Affinity Concept

Now a days numerous real-time OS like QNX, VxWorks, LynxOS and real-time extension of Linux practicing the processor affinity concept to schedule the real-time tasks and it offers more flexible approach instead of traditional approaches defined in the literature. Limiting the migration may reduce the context switch overhead and improve the cache performance but it largely influence on other parameters which are most important for the any real-time operating system. It degrades overall performance by decreasing the schedulability of tasks, increase the deadline miss ratio. This paper presents the problem in existing processor affinity based approach which confines the schedulability of the tasks and designed a novel processor affinity based algorithm to enhance the schedulability of the tasks and decreases the average deadline miss ratio by providing the flexible migration policy with the priority reassignment mechanism.

ALBINISM AND USABILITY OF SOFTWARE FOR COMPUTER-BASED TESTING IN KOGI STATE UNIVERSITY: IS THERE NEED FOR ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY?

This research paper is an evaluation of usability of software for computer-based testing in Kogi State University by students and candidates with albinism. A qualitative research design was employed for the study because the intent was to elicit information from the respondents. The responses show that the interaction of the user (students with albinism) with computer through specific interfaces during the course of computer-based testing was reasonably satisfactory. However, the software used does not give warning sounds (auditory displays) to indicate that something needs attention during CBT. From the response of 88.7% of the respondents, it is obvious that the software effectively monitors time during CBT examination. Disappointingly, there was no time extension placed on the software/program for student with albinism to complete the test as reported by 91.9% of respondents. All the respondents were of the opinion that assistive technologies should be adopted during CBT examination for people with low vision in KSU. Therefore, this paper recommends that the software designers for CBT in KSU should take into consideration more graphics interfaces, auditory displays, time extension for students with low vision and various assistive technologies that students might use. The University management should make effort at providing assistive technologies to compensate for low vision students. This will help advance quality and equity in education by providing fair and valid assessment for all students and candidates including those with albinism.

Development of Multi-Quadrotor Simulator Based on Real-Time Hypervisor Systems

Today, simulator technology has been widely used as an important part of quadrotor development such as validation and testing. A good quadrotor simulator can simulate the quadrotor system as closely as possible to the real one. Therefore, in case of multi-quadrotor simulator, the simulator should not only can simulate a multi-quadrotor system, but also every quadrotor should be able to leverage their own resources. To solve this issues, in this paper, we present a hypervisor-based multi-quadrotor simulator. We used RT-Xen as hypervisor, a real-time Xen hypervisor. To ensure every quadrotor runs in real-time manner, we implemented quadrotor simulator in Litmus-RT which is a real-time extension of Linux. In this paper, we conducted some testing and performance evaluation for particular cases on our multi-quadrotor simulator: step-input responses, computation time, and response times. Based on the performance evaluation, our hypervisor-based multi-quadrotor simulator environment is proven to meet the real-time requirements. The results show that three important tasks in quadrotor system: Stability Controllability Augmented System (SCAS), Equation of Motion (EOM), and waypoint following task, are finished before their deadlines; in fact, 20 ms, 10 ms, and 40 ms before the deadlines for SCAS, EOM, and waypoint following, respectively.

Default Solution on Sharia Housing in The View of Private Law and Islamic Law

Sharia housing with sharia developer system using cash and in house method without involving the bank is thriving, because in the advert mentioned no fines and confiscations. While every financing there is a possibility of contract breach, such as La Tansa Cluster Malang Housing, there are several users doing breach of contract. This breach of contract can cause problems between developer and user so that solution is needed. The goals of this research are determining factors that led to the breach of contract and the efforts to resolve trade breach of contract in La Tansa Cluster Malang in terms of civil code and Islamic laws. This research uses empirical legal research with a sociological juridical approach, a concept approach, and a legislative approach. Data collected by interviews with developer of La Tansa Cluster Malang and the user, and then analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis methods. The results showed that breach of contract occurred in La Tansa Cluster Malang due to lack of user candidate analysis, postpone payments, family deaths, business failures, serious illness, and inaccurate financial predictions. According to civil code, the efforts to resolve contract breach of sharia housing trade in La Tansa Cluster Malang are doing deliberation, communication, time extension, PPJB canceling (according to the Article 1338 paragraph (2) of Civil Code), and money returning (according to Article 1267 and Article 1248 of Civil Code). While the efforts to resolve the breach of contract in La Tansa Cluster Malang according to Islamic laws are doing deliberation or reconciliation (shulh), communication, time extension (according to surah al-Baqarah (2): 280), PPJB canceling (based on fasakh iqalah), and money returning (based on dhaman al ‘aqdi).

Merawat Mistisisme di Surakarta

Mystical rituals in a tradition experience conflict in society because of things that are irrational in nature. For example, the grebeg maulid tradition, grebeg sudiro, lawung mahesa ceremony, mbah meyek village clean, sadranan, and slametan. However, the government has not lost the way to maintain this mystical tradition to maintain society's social order. This research is qualitative research with an ethnographic approach that focuses on the traditions that exist in Surakarta, which contain mystical but still growing. This research was conducted from 2019 to 2020. The data collected came from observations made in 5 sub-districts in Surakarta. Second, interviews with mystical actors. Third, documentation obtained from books, journals, and mass media explaining the mystical traditions in Surakarta. The data validity used the triangulation method, member check, time extension, peer debriefing. Data analysis using ethnographic analysis model. The result is that there are six ways to rationalize the mystical tradition, namely connecting the mystical with something rational, using a different name that can be accepted by the public at large, making the tools used in the tradition no longer mystical, and accommodating technological developments. such as the e-wom method to spread tradition.

Influence of Calcination conditions on the Adsorption Properties of the Wasted Sea Shell to the Dibutyl phthalate

<p>The calcined clam seashell powders were applied as adsorbent to adsorb Dibutyl phthalate (DBP), from an aqueous solution. The influence of calcination conditions including temperature and time on its adsorption capability to DBP was investigated. The shell powders calcined at 500 oC had the best adsorption capability. As the calcination time extending under different temperatures, the adsorption capabilities showed the same tendency and reached peak values at the calcination time of 10mins. Calcination time extension also led to the increase of crystal unit cell Sizes of CaCO3 inside the clam seashells at the first 10mins and then decreased to the stable value, Correspondingly, the calcined shell specific surface areas decreased firstly to the minimum at 10mins and then gradually increased, as the calcination process lasting at 500oC. The maximum adsorption capability as 1.237mg/g, the lowest specific surface area as 14.2m2/g, and the largest unit cell size as 60.7nm of CaCO3 simultaneously exhibited at the calcination time of 10mins. The Freundlich isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order-kinetics model were appropriate for describing the adsorption isotherm and kinetics of DBP at 30oC, respectively. It is inferred that the interaction between calcined shell and DBP is chemical adsorption.</p>
