“Ugric text” as a cultural phenomenon: towards articulation of the problem

Leaning on the conceptual analysis, the article describes “Ugric text” as a special cultural phenomenon. Approximately fifty works by Ugric writers (both, poetic and prosaic) were analyzed using the Internet program, “Morpher”. Despite the obvious differences stylistic and thematic differences in their works, both poets and prose writers use a common set of basic concepts that comprise the backbone of cultural space of the region. The conclusion is made on the similarities that unite the texts of Ugric authors into a single cultural phenomenon. The goal of this research lies in the description of Ugric text as a unique cultural phenomenon. The article employs the results of the latest scientific developments in the field of philological regionalism and geopoetics, as well as literary works by the Ugric authors. The main result consists in elucidation of the concept of “Ugric text”, its differentiation with the concept of “literary school”. Having studied the texts of prominent Ugric writers – E. D. Aypin, S. S. Kozlov, O. B. Richter, P. A. Sukhanov, N. V. Sochikhin, Y. Shestalov and others –  the author concludes on the basic concepts that determine the common mental space of Ugra and ensure the semantic integrity of Ugric text as a cultural phenomenon. It is established that due to the common conceptual framework, Ugric text not only exists as a unified whole, but also evolves, remains contemporary, and meets the spiritual needs of the audience. Comprehensive analysis of the literary works indicates that the common concepts in the poetic and prosaic Ugric text evolve and refract within the framework of the authorial linguistic worldview. The scientific novelty consist sin the fact that this article is first to analyze Ugric texts as a cultural phenomenon from the perspective of conceptual approach.

Rancang Bangun Jaringan Internet di Kantor Desa Kerta

Pada tahun 2018, Kantor Desa Kerta di desa Kerta, kecamatan Payangan, kabupaten Gianyar menerima bantuan desa digital dari Kementerian Komunikasi dan Informatika (Kominfo). Desa digital adalah program pemerintah pusat untuk mengembangkan komunikasi terutama daerah pedesaan yang masih terkendala jaringan internet.

Therapeutic Alliance in Technology-Based Interventions for the Treatment of Depression: Systematic Review

Background There is growing evidence that technology-based interventions (TBIs) are effective for the treatment of depression. As TBIs are gaining acceptance, a question arises whether good therapeutic alliance, considered a key aspect of psychotherapy, can be established without or with minimal face-to-face contact or rather changes if blended concepts are applied. While therapeutic alliance has been studied extensively in the context of face-to-face therapy, only few studies have reviewed evidence on alliance ratings in TBIs. Objective The purpose of this study was to examine therapeutic alliance in technology-based psychological interventions for the treatment of depression. Methods We searched Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PSYNDEX, CINAHL, clinical trial registers, and sources of grey literature for randomized controlled trials on TBIs in the treatment of adults with unipolar depression. All publications were selected according to prespecified criteria. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers. Results A total of eight out of 98 studies (9.5%) included in the review on TBIs for depression considered therapeutic alliance as part of their evaluation. The available data covered eight different treatment conditions, including four stand-alone treatments (face-to-face psychotherapy, email, telephone, and internet program) and four combined treatments (face-to-face psychotherapy plus a smartphone app and an internet program combined with face-to-face psychotherapy, treatment as usual, or email/telephone). On average, patients rated the alliance positively across all groups. Importantly, no relevant group differences regarding therapeutic alliance sum scores were found in any of the studies. Five studies investigated the relationship between patients’ alliance ratings and treatment outcome, revealing mixed results. Conclusions Our results suggest that it is possible to establish a positive therapeutic alliance across a variety of different TBIs for depression, but this is based on a small number of studies. Future research needs to determine on what basis therapeutic alliance is formed in settings that do not allow for additional nonverbal cues, perhaps with adapted instruments to measure therapeutic alliance.

Security Challenges and Resolution in Cloud Computing and Cloud of Things

Cloud computing is a developing zone of computing innovation that shapes the handling power and the computing assets of many associated, topographically separated PCs associated by means of internet. Cloud computing wipes out the need of having a total framework of equipment and programming to meet clients' prerequisites and applications. It very well may be thought of as a total or an incomplete outsourcing of equipment and programming assets. To get to cloud applications, a great internet association and a standard internet program are required. Cloud computing has its own particular downside from the security perspective; this chapter addresses the vast majority of these dangers and their conceivable arrangements. Cloud computing gives its client numerous abilities like getting to an expansive number of utilizations without the requirement for having a permit, acquiring, introducing, or downloading any of these applications.
