تنطلق هذه الدراسة من اعتقاد بأن العالم الإبداعي الذي تنتمي إليه الرواية ينهض على منظومة زمنية خاصة، وخصوصيتها تنبع من اعتمادها ترکيبة تزاوج بين الواقع والخيال، مما يؤدي إلى ظهور العديد من الانحرافات التي تلحق بالزمن الروائي، تتغير على إثرها صيرورة الأحداث، سواء على مستوى ترتيب الأحداث أو مدة السرد أو التکرار، ومن ثم تسعى هذه الدراسة إلى رصد المفارقات الناجمة عن انحراف الزمن الروائي على هذه المستويات الثلاثة، وتوظيفها في صياغة تصور عن إيقاع الزمن الروائي في رواية الطنطورية للکاتبة رضوى عاشور. Rhythm of time in the novel Al-Tantouria Nafisa Mohamed Abdel Fattah Department of Literature and Criticism, Faculty of Islamic and Arabic Studies, Cairo Girls Branch, Al-Azhar University, Arab Republic of Egypt E-mail: zaitonah8@azhar.edu.eg Abstract: This study is based on the belief that the creative world to which the novel belongs adopts a special time system, and its specificity stems from its adoption of a combination of reality and fiction, which leads to the emergence of many deviations in the time of fiction, the result of which changes the process of events, whether at the level of the order of events or the duration of the narrationy or repetition, and then this study seeks to monitor the paradoxes resulting from the deviation of the narrative time on these three levels, and to employ it in the formulation of a conception of the rhythm of the narrative time in the novel of the author Radwa Ashour.

Increasing herd size and fragmented or non-uniform land challenge pasture-based milk production systems. Therefore, part-time grazing combined with indoor feeding of fresh herbage (‘cut-and-carry’) allows to maintain the advantages of fresh-herbage-based diets. However, consequences for environmental nitrogen losses, animal behaviour and ruminal metabolism are decisive for its implementation. Animal performance, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), reticulo-ruminal pH and feeding/locomotive behaviour were compared in six cows subjected either to full-time grazing (system F) or to part-time grazing system with indoor feeding of fresh herbage and concentrate (system P). Biweekly samplings were performed on six lactating cows per treatment in spring, summer and autumn. Nitrogen (N) balance was calculated from estimated N intake and N output via faeces, urine and milk. Reticulo-ruminal pH was recorded using a wireless data recorder. Eating and locomotive behaviour were measured with noseband sensors and pedometers. In spring, but not later, herbage intake per unit of body weight was higher for system F compared to system P cows. Eating time was shorter by 15% in P compared to F cows. Across systems, NUE declined from spring to summer/autumn from about 300 to 200 g milk protein N/kg N intake. Reticulo-ruminal pH was more variable under part-time grazing conditions, with a pronounced decrease subsequent to offering the herbage indoors. The part-time grazing system resulted in similar or higher NUE than full-time grazing. Additional studies with larger numbers of experimental units are required to be able to develop comprehensive recommendations for the improvement of the two grazing systems.

The reproductive performance of lactating sows was investigated by using different feeding methods including conventional feeding (CF, 3 times/d) or free feeding (FF), and different dietary energy level including low energy (LE: 3,300) or high energy (HE: 3,400 kcal/kg) during the hot season. A total of twenty-eight crossbred (Yorkshire × Landrace) sows were distributed into four treatments as a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement. Sows in the FF group showed lower body weight and backfat loss (p < 0.05) compared with the CF group. Backfat loss during lactation was lower (p < 0.05) in sows fed HE diet than in that fed LE diet. There were no significant differences in litter survival rate and weaning to estrus interval, but the litter weight at weaning was improved (p < 0.05) in FF and HE sows. Hence, it is concluded that using the free-feeding system or increased dietary energy density leads to improved sow performance during hot ambient temperature.

This study aims to determine the application of the Just In Time system at the Batu Tela Beton Mas Business in an effort to increase company productivity. This study uses primary data and secondary data with data collection techniques using interviews, observation and documentation. The results of the study show that using the Just In Time system on the purchasing system and production system can increase the productivity of the company. This is proven to be true that the implementation of the Just In Time purchasing system can reduce storage costs. Implementation of the Just In Time Purchasing system can directly have a large impact on cost efficiency and productivity. The application of the Just In Time Production system is able to suppress activities that do not add value (non value added) or improve manufacturing cycle efficiency. The increase in MCE is caused by the smaller activities that do not add value (non value added) to the production process. With increasing MCE due to loss of activity that does not add value. then the application of the Just In Time Production system can increase company productivity. The implication of the results of this study is to give advice to companies so that companies should implement the Just In Time system in managing the company so that it can increase the productivity of the company.

Introduction. Ensuring the necessary level of fire safety of objects of different classes is achieved by the use of automatic fire extinguishing installations — drencher, sprinkler, etc. Such installations, feeding extinguishing agents (eg, water) with the required intensity, are designed to localize and eliminate the fire. But there is a significant class of objects for which it is required not to extinguish the fire, but to contain its spread until the arrival of fire departments. This is due to both the features of the structural and functional purpose of the protected objects, and restrictions on the use of extinguishing agents (water). Such facilities are equipped with automatic fire containment installations. Problem. If the known automatic fire extinguishing systems set out the requirements according to intensity of extinguishing substances in a protected area with one sprinkler and other parameters for silent automatic fire containment installations such requirements are formulated in General terms. This complicates the design and subsequent operation of automatic fire containment systems. Ways to solve this problem are: a) establishment of a list of premises and buildings that are appropriate to equip automatic fire containment installations; b) determination of the working intensity of the supply of extinguishing agents to contain the fire; c) assessment of the required operating time of the automatic fire containment installation; d) assessment of the pass of extinguishing agents. In this regard, the article provides relevant theoretical expressions and examples of quantitative estimation of activation time system, a flow rate of extinguishing agents to suppress fire, stock fire-extinguishing agents. Also information on classification of automatic fire extinguishing installations and the approximate list of the objects which are subject to protection by automatic fire containment installations is given. Conclusions. Thus, on the basis of the above material can be formulated the basic requirements for the design of automatic fire containment systems, for which it is advisable to develop a special regulatory document.

Every year educational institutes conduct various examinations, which include institutional and non-institutional competitive exams. Now a day's online tests and examinations are becoming popular to reduce the burden of the examination evaluation process. The online exams include either objective or multiple-choice questions. Nevertheless, the exams include only objective or multiple-choice questions. However, subjective-based questions and answers are not involved due to the evaluation process complexity and efficiency of the evaluation process. An automatic answer checker application that checks the written answers and marks the weightage similar to a human being is more helpful in the current modern era is necessary. Hence, the software applications built to check subjective answers may be more useful for allocating marks to the user after verifying the answers for online examination. This type of tool/application/system has the challenge of having an abundant resource database, including questions, corresponding answers, and the marks allocated to the corresponding answers. At the same time system need to verify the answers provided by the users by checking the template answers and the answers provided by the user. However, Artificial Intelligence is required to identify the core element of the answers while allocating marks. Hence, an Artificial Intelligence-based answer verifier is proposed to do the job of examiner/evaluator automatically. As a result of this artificial intelligence-based answer verifier, the evaluator's time and energy can be conserved, with improved work efficiency.

Time and coordinate systems are two basic elements for navigation system. For a navigation system, the position and velocity of a spacecraft should be described in a special time and coordinate system. In addition, the establishment of orbit dynamics model and the generation of navigation measurement data often involve the calculation of celestial ephemeris. This chapter presents the description of time system, definitions, and transformation of reference coordinate systems, and ephemeris calculation for navigation celestial bodies.

If time is described by a fundamental process rather than a coordinate, it interacts with any physical system that evolves in time. The resulting dynamics is shown here to be consistent provided the fundamental period of the time system is sufficiently small. A strong upper bound T_C < 10^{-33}s of the fundamental period of time, several orders of magnitude below any direct time measurement, is obtained from bounds on dynamical variations of the period of a system evolving in time., 5 pages, 3 figures

This paper describes a frame-based anti-collision algorithm which is compatible with the current RFID standard of EPCglobal Gen-2 that employs a frame slotted ALOHA approach to detect the tags. The proposed algorithm is derived from the existing tree-based algorithm, called Bayesian Estimation based Modified Dynamic Tree (BE-MDT) [1]. We also derived a mathematical model for our proposed algorithm. The outcomes from the given numerical model and simulation verify that the proposed method accomplishes a higher system efficiency and time system efficiency in tag identification and outperforming the currently employed conventional frame-based collision resolution algorithm in EPCglobal Gen-2 standard.

This paper shows a Novel Low Processing Time System focused on criminal activities detection based on real-time video analysis applied to Command and Control Citizen Security Centers. This system was applied to the detection and classification of criminal events in a real-time video surveillance subsystem in the Command and Control Citizen Security Center of the Colombian National Police. It was developed using a novel application of Deep Learning, specifically a Faster Region-Based Convolutional Network (R-CNN) for the detection of criminal activities treated as &ldquo, objects&rdquo, to be detected in real-time video. In order to maximize the system efficiency and reduce the processing time of each video frame, the pretrained CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) model AlexNet was used and the fine training was carried out with a dataset built for this project, formed by objects commonly used in criminal activities such as short firearms and bladed weapons. In addition, the system was trained for street theft detection. The system can generate alarms when detecting street theft, short firearms and bladed weapons, improving situational awareness and facilitating strategic decision making in the Command and Control Citizen Security Center of the Colombian National Police.

In this article the main attention is paid to research into the narrator’s time and the autobiographical hero’s time in the Modern Russian autobiographical prose. First of all it gives outlines of the leading position of the time in the binarization of “time / space” and explanations for relationships of the narrator’s time and the autobiographical hero’s time. The epic time is described as the basic time of the narrator, which manifests itself mainly in two points - change or cessation of chronological movements of the hero. The biographical time is regarded as the dominant time of the autobiographical hero, in which growth and evolution of the hero occur. The study on intersection of the biographical time with historical, everyday and mythological times occupies a great place in the article.

In shrimp farming, feeding is an important activity to achieve good shrimp growth. Manual feeding manually using hand is less effective due to unequal food distribution. Thus, an automatic feeder is required to dispense feed at predetermined time. The advantages of automatic feeder are cost-effective, low labour requirement, and can be applicable for large volumes of feed. Design of automatic feeder machine can influence the capacity and time controlling of the feeder. In this research, the automatic feeder was designed using a controlling time system based on Internet of Things (IoT) technology. During plant trial, The automatic feeding was scheduled at 7 am, 11 am, 4 pm, and 8 pm. This machine could throw shrimp food homogeneously up to 10 m far for 2,500 m2 pond area. In shrimp farming, distribution of shrimp food in predetermined time becomes an important rule to achieve good shrimp growth.

Properly organized data is vital for appropriate statistics and theories. In this study, it was hypothesized that raw tropical cyclone (TC) data labeled with the current Gregorian time system, dampened the dominant signals and order in the data. Therefore, the objective of this study was to explore and reorganize the data, using the TianGan-DiZhi (T-D) calendar. All 6 h TC records in 60 sidereal years over the western North Pacific (WNP) were investigated after the data were transferred from the Gregorian to T-D calendar. TianGan and DiZhi, two collections of elements in the T-D calendar, were then quantified to conduct correlation analyses with different TC parameters. The results showed significant temporal and spatial correlation between 6 h TC records and variables in the T-D calendar over different timescales. Temporally, 6 h TC records in the T-D summer, generally from May 5 to August 6, of the 60 sidereal years were significantly correlated with the strength difference between yearly TianGan and yearly DiZhi for the sidereal years. Spatially, the longitudes and latitudes of 6 h TC records were also significantly correlated with daily variables in the T-D calendar. We conclude that, TC data over the WNP can be better interpreted using the quantified T-D calendar than the Gregorian calendar. Since this ancient time-labeling tool can provide properly organized data, it might be used to modify some inputs in current numerical models to improve forecasting power. Key words: Tropical cyclone, frequency, temporal, sidereal, Gan-Zhi, calendar.

A delta operator based Discrete Sliding Mode Fuzzy Controller (DSMFC) for dc-dc buck Converter is described. The discrete systems by means of shift operator turns into mathematically disordered at an unexpected sampling rates. In order to face this difficulty, the delta operator is introduced. The delta operator can convert continuous-time system into discrete-time system and vice-versa. The main aim is to increase the rate of response, develop efficiency, get excellent Robustness and chattering phenomenon inhibition. This method is easy to implement and the overall system is efficient and cost-effective. During discretization, to circumvent any data damage, quick sampling has to be done which can be achieved with the help of delta operator because of its well defined mathematical properties even at rapid sampling.

The consistency of the brown color, flavor and dispersability of cocoa solids is the goal of a successful Dutching process of cocoa masse. However, acrylamide, a known probable carcinogen which is one of the by-products of browning reactions, is linked to the strength of alkalis used in the Dutching process. This study used Response Surface D-optimal, 20 experimental runs to determine acrylamide content of beans after using treatment factors; temperature (110–160 °C), time (20–50 min) and K2CO3 (10–70% w/v). Subsequently, the alkalized cocoa masses were treated to obtain extracts containing acrylamide using QuEChERS method. The concentrations of the acrylamide were determined using HPLC after which the data was processed by fitting a cubic process order followed by diagnostics to remove outliers. The results yielded optimized process conditions of treatment to yield low acrylamide content, which was later validated to be 7.7 × 10−2 mg/g, at alkali concentration of 29.17% and roasting temperature - time system of 110 °C and 20 min respectively. Though the validated acrylamide content was relatively lower than what has been reported in some European markets, it was found to be still high relative to other markets. This suggest that the application of K2CO3 could hold promise of lowering acrylamide concentrations. However, after exposure studies, the validated acrylamide yielded a probable risk of ‘4 in 1000’ adults and ‘2 in 100’ young children consumers of chocolate products, which were highly unacceptable relative to the deminimis (‘1 in 1,000,000’). Thus, based on the deminimis risk, further control measures must be sought to produce safer alkalized cocoa masse. Keywords: Alkalized cocoa, Acrylamide, Exposure, Probable carcinogen

Real-time intersection measurement is an important application of TT&C equipment. Most of the current researches of intersection are focusing on the intersection algorithm itself or data preprocessing method, but few revealing how to ensure intersection’ real-time requirement. Based on the two scenarios of having time system and not, this paper expounds two practical real-time intersection strategies, which have been tested in simulation and real tasks and fully ensures that the program can execute the intersection algorithm after receiving appropriate amount of data. the strategies have high practical value.

Cet article s’intéresse à l’influence de la composition genrée de la main-d’œuvre sur les politiques de gestion du temps et des horaires de travail menées par les entreprises. À partir d’une enquête qualitative auprès de responsables d’entreprise, il propose une relecture des trois systèmes de gestion du temps et des horaires analysés dans la théorie de la segmentation : le système de temps fondé sur la performance, le système de temps fragmenté et le système standard, héritier de la norme temporelle fordiste. Il montre que le genre peut être un facteur de dégradation des conditions temporelles d’emploi, comme un facteur d’amélioration en fonction des configurations particulières dans lesquelles se trouve l’employeur. The present paper investigates how employer working time policies are related to the gender composition of the labour force. To study theses policies, we opted for a qualitative survey, based on semi-structured interviews of HR offciers. It proposes a gendered reinterpretation of time systems, as described and analysed in the labour force segmentation perspective: the results-based time system, the fragmented time system, the standard time system. The findings indicate that gender has an ambiguous influence on working time arrangements: depending on contexts, it may improve or worsen working conditions. Este artículo se interesa en la influencia de la composición de género de la mano de obra sobre las políticas de gestión del tiempo y de los horarios de trabajo implementados por las empresas. A partir de un estudio cualitativo con responsables de empresa, propone una relectura de los tres sistemas de gestión del tiempo y de los horarios analizados en la teoría de la segmentación: el sistema de tiempo fragmentado y el sistema estándar, heredero de la norma temporal fordista. Muestra como el género puede ser un factor de degradación de estas condiciones temporales de empleo, como un factor de mejora en función de las configuraciones particulares en las cuales se encuentra el empleador.

Islamic calendar was compiled based on the astronomical phenomenon of Earth, Moon and Sun movement as the main object of estimation. For the purposes of the arrangement of the Islamic calendar, the criteria for the moon visibility and certain conditions have been used. Because of this, the good criteria of a new moon must meet the actual results of new moon sighting. Regarding the criteria of the new moon until the day of unification of Hijri calendar in the Muslim world is still experiencing barriers to consolidation. The problem that arises is that the new moon visibility cannot cover the entire region of the Earth. It only looks in part of Earth's territory alone. Therefore the only local calendar that can vary between countries or global calendar concept has not yet been recognized as a calendar for worship because the dateline does not follow the new moon. This paper compared the new moon criteria of the international Islamic calendar concept that is the single Islamic calendar concept from the international conference 2016 in Istanbul and the global calendar concept of the conference 2017 in Jakarta. The findings revealed that both calendars are intended to have the same meaning of being proposed as the unifying calendar of the Islamic world in a single time system but using different new moon criteria and application parameters.

This chapter examines familiarity with flow diversion devices, specifically, flow diversion devices used on systems producing ultrapasteurized and commercially sterile products. A flow diversion device designed for aseptic processing may not look like the common pasteurizer type, but it is the physical means to prevent under-processed product from being packaged. The flow diversion device is widely recognized by the processors of milk and milk products. A high-temperature, short time system effectively operates with the ability to cycle in and out of forward flow. Most systems allow diversion of product only once when using post cooler flow diversion. A flow diversion and product routing design can be built that allows for ultrapasteurized and pasteurized production under the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance and, with only minor needs for additional valves, meets the recommendations of the process and packaging authorities. Packaging authority is the National Food Laboratories, a division of the National Food Processors Association.

Extending work by Montare, visual simple reaction time, choice reaction time, discriminative reaction time, and overall reaction time scores obtained from college students by the simplest chronoscope (a falling meterstick) method were significantly faster as well as significantly less variable than scores of the same individuals from electromechanical reaction timers (machine method). Results supported the existence of dual reaction time systems: an ancient primary reaction time system theoretically activating the V5 parietal area of the dorsal visual stream that evolved to process significantly faster sensory-motor reactions to sudden stimulations arising from environmental objects in motion, and a secondary reaction time system theoretically activating the V4 temporal area of the ventral visual stream that subsequently evolved to process significantly slower sensory-perceptual-motor reactions to sudden stimulations arising from motionless colored objects.

In the end of XX century we were witnesses of the revolution in a radio-navigation, which led to the present domination of GPS. Dozens of radio-navigation systems disappeared. However now in many papers more and more often we can read an opinion, that GNSS monopoly becomes dangerous. This results from the similar sensibility of all GNSS systems on the same disturbances consequential from the similar radiofrequency band and similarly low powers of the signal. There is a growing approval in the maritime world that GNSS will not provide a required resilience because of common vulnerabilities. An anticipated radio navigation system should be a combination of systems, providing redundancy and effective work when GNSS does not work properly. Lately a lot of authors commonly pointed-out a potential advantages of modified Loran (e-Loran), however surely still it will be only a potential option, particularly for the southern hemisphere, where this system has never existed. An issue of alternative systems becomes urgent, because of the growing concern about GNSS system operation. The solution should not demand high financial effort, well fit to the existing law and utilize a present technology. The paper presents a general outlook of potential development in a present radar devices considering their use as an element of a positioning system. In this context radar seems to be an attractive option, however its utilization as an alternative for GNSS should reach considerably higher technical performances. The accessible information prove that it is possible to reach a higher accuracy of the position obtained from the modified radar in the future, especially with the suitable navigational infrastructure on shore.
