Security and confidentiality of data is one important aspect of an information system. The information can be misused very large losses in high-profile cases such as vital information confidential corporate, customer data banks and etc. Information security solutions in one of them can be used with cryptography. Cryptographic algorithms used in this study is a tiny encryption algorithm. Cryptographic data security attacks can always wear can occur, with this in mind the authors added security techniques to perform data hiding with the media as a placeholder, this term is called steganography. Steganography is used in this study is the end of the file. These techniques make the process of data hiding which is located at the end of the image, so it does not affect the image quality of the reservoir. In this study, a system built using microsoft visual studio 2010 C#. This system can work well, but has a color image blur caused to the container caused by the inserted message, where the greater the size of the message was inserted then color the image blur that arises will be many more.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have spread all over our technological environment in the last decade. The inclusion of GPS technologies in everyday portable devices along with the creation of massive shareable geographical data banks has boosted the rise of geoinformatics. Despite the technological maturity of this field, there are still relevant research challenges concerning efficient information storage and representation. One of the most powerful techniques to tackle these issues is designing new Succinct Data Structures (SDS). These structures are defined by three main characteristics: they use a compact representation of the data, they have self-index properties and, as a consequence, they do not need decompression to process the enclosed information. Thus, SDS are not only capable of storing geographical data using as little space as possible, but they can also solve queries efficiently without any previous decompression. This work introduces how SDS can be successfully applied in the GIS context through several novel approaches and practical use cases.

PurposeThe credibility of valuation is enhanced by the use of quality and reliable property market data. Nonetheless, the availability of quality and reliable market data remains a problem for valuers in Ghana, as current market data sources are tainted with issues of reliability. The purpose of this study is to examine the possibility of establishing property market data banks in Ghana, to help solve the market data problem faced by valuers.Design/methodology/approachThis study adopted a mixed-method approach consisting of the identification and review of literature, interviews with officials from the Lands Valuation Division of the Lands Commission and a questionnaire survey of property valuers.FindingsThe study finds that it is possible for property market data banks to be established, and in the absence of facilitating legislation, partnerships among various stakeholders are the best way of achieving this. The study identifies the lack of initiative and the lack of partnerships among the various stakeholders inter alia as the major factors limiting the establishment of property market data banks. The findings imply a need for stakeholders to take initiative to establish a property market data bank aimed at improving the quality and reliability of market data to enhance the valuation practice.Originality/valueThe study asserts the possibility of creating a property market data bank in Ghana, notwithstanding the limiting factors. The findings will provide a basis for relevant institutions and agencies to take cooperative action for the establishment of property market data banks, towards enhancing the valuation practice in Ghana as well as in other developing countries. The study will also prompt research into various tools and mechanisms to be adopted towards the establishment of property market data banks through participatory means.

Abstract Corporate social responsibility is a philanthropic activity that works for the development of underprivileged people in society. The study examined the factors that are considered as influential stimuli of CSR expenditures. Prais Winsten regression model is applied to a sample of 32 commercial banks from the year of 2011 to 2015 with 160 observations. The study revealed that bank size and one year lag of CSR expenditure positively affect CSR expenditure and are statistically significant. However, bank default risk, shareholders influence, and bank age have a negative and significant effect on CSR expenditures of banks. Therefore, the study's implication is to address the factors properly for the country's socio-economic development. JEL classification numbers: C12, C23. Keywords: CSR, Quantitative Methods, Panel data, Banks, Bangladesh.

Sex hormones affect the developmental process and play important roles in the kidney’s structure and functions. Clinical and experimental results have indicated that kidney functions are different between the genders, and they may be associated with the sex hormones, which regulate the expression and action of transporters in the nephron. In the current short review, the data banks including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus were reviewed to achieve the published related articles regarding the role of gender and diabetes mellitus in glucose transport in renal system.

As an exponential increase in road corridors, there is also an increase in injuries, within them, to Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (SETM), which is described as a lesion in the external layer of the tibia, causing the posteromedial region to have a size of approximately ≥ 5cm. The objective of this study is to identify the factors of the cliff, how it has been carried out or the diagnosis and physiotherapeutic treatment for the SETM. Methodology: it is about a literature review, using a qualitative research method, of a descriptive nature. A bibliographic survey was carried out in PubMed, Google Scholar and SciELO data banks. Result: Due to the exact cause of SETM is unknown, being more oily than it is a multifatorial condition, identified cliff factors: o increased BMI; navicular left above 10mm; increase in plantar flexion ADM; inappropriate treinamento plane; Previous injuries no 2/3 distal to the leg and imbalance of muscular forces. Its diagnosis was made through a clinical evaluation, containing a historical examination, followed by a physical examination. Despite the clinical evaluation being certified, image exams may be necessary in some specific cases. Conclusion: Despite the great incidence of SETM, it was not identified during the literature review of this study, a standard protocol considered effective, therefore its treatment is concentrated on the clinical presentation of the patient, being generalized interventions, lacking further scientific evidence of good quality. to verify the effectiveness of a specific physiotherapeutic intervention, not specific treatment of SETM.

One of the most important quantities in chemical thermodynamics and thermochemistry is the enthalpy of combustion. Of the currently existing methods for calculating the heat of combustion of natural and synthetic organic compounds, the most acceptable and correct in our case was the Karash method. In this study, the standard enthalpy of combustion, the standard enthalpy of formation, and the melting enthalpy of the antibiotic roseofungin and its cyclodextrin derivatives were calculated. As a result of the study, the thermodynamic constants of the standard enthalpies of combustion, standard enthalpies of formation, and the enthalpies of melting of the above compounds were calculated, which are of interest for physicochemical modeling of processes with their participation, serve as initial information arrays for loading into fundamental thermodynamic data banks and reference books, and is also important for standardization and certification of these complexes. It should be noted that the presence of a large number of hydroxyl groups in the structures of the studied complexes allows them to be attributed to polar compounds.

In Panama City Beach, Florida, thirteen mosquito species have been recently registered into public health data banks over the span of 7 years [2014-2020], ten species within their published geographic range and three species outside of their noted geographic range. The underreporting is likely due to past identification practices of sub-sampling and aliquoting surveillance collections while only recording the top-most three abundant species for control application thresholds. However, these thirteen species have not been recorded in this area by public health operations up until their respective record timelines. Timelines of identification, species specific character states, the dynamic of identifying similar species and alternate identification methods are discussed. As of 2020, 10 genera and 50 species within Diptera: Culicidae are recorded in Panama City Beach, FL, U.S.A.


Significance It will not be easy to reconcile new tasks with traditional price-stability mandates. Moreover, it is not clear what data banks should use to measure progress, while a green transition will depend on closer coordination with governments, creating challenges for politically independent central banks. Impacts As governments raise carbon taxes, there will be calls to loosen monetary policy to offset their deflationary effect. ‘Mission creep’ is a risk for authorities; financial firms may incur losses if politicians fail to follow through on carbon price moves. Green investments risk a bubble effect, especially as short-run supplies of metals such as cobalt and lithium are limited.
