The Formation of the East Siberian Region in 1930 and the Problems of the Reorganization of the Banking Sector in the Region

The article analyzed the changes in the credit system of Eastern Siberia that took place during the formation of the East Siberian region in 1930. As a result of the reorganization Irkutsk office of the State Bank of the USSR was transformed into a regional one, which greatly expanded the geography of its activities. The article considers the challenges of expanding bank by establishing branch offices, the organization of management and communication with them on the territory of the region. Management challenges of the new structure were compounded by the ongoing administrative change initiatives in the region. The study focused on the issues of human resources management. The reorganization of the banking sector was hampered by the lack of experienced bank managers. A significant issue was not only the low level of professional skills, but also high staff turnover due to difficult working conditions, low wages, high cost and low level of cultural and living conditions. The way out from this situation was the creation of its own system of job training in the form of banking and finance courses, which were later transformed into a Training Academy.

THE PRIORITY ORIENTATION OF THE PERSON OF A YOUNG DOCTOR IN PROFESSIONAL LIFE AND PROFESSIONAL TASKS

Purpose. The purpose of the study was to study the priority orientation of the personality of the young doctor in the professional sphere of life and the solution of professional problems. Materials and methods. The priority orientation of the individual to the professional sphere of life and the solution of professional tasks as a component of the professional socialization of young doctors was determined by us using the psychodiagnostic methodology “Motivation in professional activities” developed by B. Bass. This technique allows you to build a personal profile of the subject, based on three scales characterizing the level of orientation of the individual: the “case”, “self” and “communication”. The number of young doctors with a priority orientation of the individual to the professional sphere of life and the solution of professional tasks were attributed to the surveyed, in the personal profile of which the level of orientation “towards the case” was the highest and at the same time exceeded the level of the greatest of the two remaining directions of not less than 10% . The percentage of people with a priority orientation of the individual on the “case” was 35.0%, those with a priority focus on “themselves” 41.0%, on “communication” 24.0%. The object of the study was 600 young doctors of the Tver region at the age of 35 years with work experience in the specialty from 1 year. In total, the impact of 141 factors was analyzed by comparing the distribution of their gradations in the main and control groups. The significance of differences between distributions was estimated by calculating and verifying χ2. The presence of reliable χ2 (p < 0.05) allowed us to consider the influence of the corresponding factor as statistically significant. To assess the strength of the influence of factors, the coefficient of mutual conjugacy of Chuprov (K) was used. Results. Formation of the orientation of the individual to the professional sphere of life and the solution of professional tasks on the gradations of representative factors of conditions and lifestyle contributes to: a high level of health and an active desire for a healthy lifestyle, a relatively low level of alcohol consumption, a relatively high level of remuneration; availability of official documents of moral incentives (letters of appreciation and thanks); the fact of work in the period of study in a medical university; relatively prosperous family relationships (level assessed as excellent, good); relatively high level of relationships with colleagues (rated as excellent, good). This priority orientation of an individual is also the result of a relatively high importance for them as factors motivating the following to work: flexible working hours; the amount of sufficient information about what is happening in the medical institution; difficult and difficult work. The priority orientation of the individual to the professional sphere of life and the solution of the professional tasks of young doctors in a medical organization is determined by the dominance of such terminal value as “physical and mental health”. Conclusion. It is concluded that factors of the conditions and lifestyle of young doctors are of greater importance for its formation.

Program i propagatorki wychowania religijnego w przedszkolu w świetle czasopisma „Wychowanie Przedszkolne” (1925- 1939)

Tekst wpisuje się w problematykę historii wychowania przedszkolnego w Polsce. Jego celem z jednej strony jest ukazanie dziejów teorii wychowania przedszkolnego, a głównie wychowania religijnego, z drugiej zaś zasygnalizowanie, jak ważną rolę w rozwoju wychowania przedszkolnego i jego propagowania odegrało czasopismo „Wychowanie Przedszkolne”. Intencją przedstawionej w tekście refleksji jest ukazanie propagatorek teorii wychowania przedszkolnego ze szczególnym akcentem na popularyzację i upowszechnianie idei wychowania religijnego w przedszkolu oraz treści wychowania religijnego. Wyrazistą cechą proponowanego programu wychowania religijnego w omawianym czasopiśmie było zalecenie łączności wychowania religijnego z wychowaniem moralnym i zasadami etyki, ponieważ religia musi być połączona z życiem. Proponowany przez „Wychowanie Przedszkolne” program wychowania religijnego miał na celu uczenie głębokiej religijności, dlatego „ambasadorki” takiego wychowania przekonywały, że ważna jest nie tylko teoria religii i religijności czy poznanie treści Pisma Świętego, ale i praktyki religijne. Służyły temu wszystkie zasady i wskazówki wynikające z proponowanej w czasopiśmie metodyki wychowania religijnego. Należy zaznaczyć i to, że szczególna rola w tym niełatwym dziele wychowania religijnego przypadała wychowawczyniom przedszkoli. Z pomocą zwłaszcza w zakresie dostarczania odpowiednich treści przyszli im twórcy poezji religijnej.

Misalignments Computation of a Two-Mirror Optical System based on Modified Merit Function Regression Method

The computer-aided alignment (CAA) is a key technology to align a precision optical system, which is generally a difficult and laborious work. However, many methods proposed has a weak point in that they cannot calculate the misalignments accurately if there are figure error in mirrors. In order to solve this problem, a new modified merit function regression (MFR) is developed, which can compute the misalignments even if the effect of figure error. Misalignments computation based on the traditional and modified MFR are tested in a typical two-mirror optical system, experimental results shows the correctness of modified MFR and its high calculation accuracy.

Professional Work of Women in State Agricultural Farms (1949–1989) — an Overview

Abstract Women employed in State Agricultural Farms (SAF) were blue- and white-collar workers, the former group being more numerous. However, the blue-collar workers mainly worked seasonally, during the period of intensive field work. When it comes to fulltime work, it was usually related to animal production. The demand for this type of work decreased with the progress of mechanization. Meanwhile, the demand for white-collar workers, especially those with agricultural education and experience, increased. Since the 1960s, the SAFs increasingly employed women qualified in agronomy, animal production, and veterinary medicine. However, they were not always accepted in positions traditionally considered “masculine”. For most women, work in SAFs was not attractive due to difficult working conditions and low prestige. If a woman decided to work there, it was usually for economic reasons. Most women did not take up professional activity and performed the traditional roles of wives and mothers.

Design of patrol and control platform for power network based on UAV and VR

Since the beginning of the twenty-one th century, with the rapid development of China’s economy and the continuous progress of China’s power industry, it has contributed an indelible force to the development of China’s socialist undertakings The construction of power grid is very important to the development of society. The normal operation of the power grid can not be separated from regular inspection of power grid equipment and lines, so as to keep abreast of and understand the operation of power transmission lines and changes in the surrounding environment and Line Protection Areas Is the power supply enterprise a heavy daily work. Manual inspection is a traditional inspection method, but also the main way of transmission line inspection. Due to the complex terrain of the transmission line corridor, there are almost no patrol roads in some sections along the route in some harsh conditions such as river-crossing or high mountains and steep mountains. This patrol method has great labor intensity and difficult working conditions Transmission lines can not get timely feedback, and can not observe the real-time intuitive operation of lines and equipment. In this case, in response to the national “Internet +” strategic thinking, we initiated the “Internet +”, “UAV +” and “VR +” all-ecological power grid patrol mode Realize the power network equipment long-distance inspection, all-round inspection, real-time simulation inspection, inspection in bad environment, so that the cause of power inspection can take off.

EXPERIMENTAL RESOURCE STAND RESEARCH OF THE GOLDEN DIVISION DISTRIBUTOR

The article discusses and analyzes the operating conditions of a modern hydraulic drive. Despite the difficult operating conditions of modern agricultural machinery (difficult working conditions, frequent changes in the technological load on the working bodies, low quality of the working fluid, increased dust content and temperature fluctuations), the hydraulic drive is its main reliable element. The basis of hydraulic drives is hydraulic spool type devices, they remain the main components of a modern hydraulic drive, are able to increase energy, dynamic, cost characteristics and increase the reliability and durability of this drive. The advantages, disadvantages and directions of improvement of this drive are noted. The modern directions of development of the hydraulic drive aimed at increasing the reliability, durability and adaptability to changing the technological load on the working bodies are considered. A booth design is proposed that allows to investigate a resource study of the developed spool splitter of a forage stem feeder. As a result of the research at the initial stage, some shortcomings in the structural implementation of the developed spool of the flow divider at the time up to 2·104 cycles were revealed. After analyzing the operating conditions and making changes to the design of the stem feeder spacer spacer and retesting, the spacer spacer showed stable operation, with more than 6.6·105 load cycles.

A decomposition-based evolutionary algorithm with adaptive weight adjustment for many-objective problems

For many-objective optimization problems (MaOPs), how to get a set of solutions with good convergence and diversity is a difficult and challenging work. In this paper, a new decomposition-based evolutionary algorithm with adaptive weight adjustment is designed to obtain this goal. The proposed algorithm adopts the uniform design method to set the weight vectors which are uniformly distributed over the design space, and an adaptive weight adjustment is used to solve some MaOPs with complex Pareto optimal front (PF) (i.e., PF with a sharp peak of low tail or discontinuous PF). A selection strategy is used to help solutions to converge to the Pareto optimal solutions. Comparing with some efficient state-of-the-art algorithms, e.g., NSGAII-CE, MOEA/D and HypE, on some benchmark functions, the proposed algorithm is able to find more accurate Pareto front with better diversity.

Test Case Generation Process using Soft Computing Techniques

Software testing is the SDLC's important and most expensive step. Software testing is difficult and time-consuming work requiring a great deal of money for software development. Testing is both an operation that is static and adaptive. Software testing process deals with the creation of test cases, checking and validating either passed or failed test cases. It is unidealistic to check only the discerning parts of the material as a whole at once. It is not possible to test the whole system once, so selected parts of the code are considered for analysis. Since the input space of the Product Under Test (PUT) can be very large, it is important to analyze a representative subset of test cases. During software testing, the most important task is to build appropriate test cases. An effective set of test cases can detect more errors. Software testing always requires high deficiencies. Test cases are constructed using the test data. In the automation of software testing, the important task is to generate test data according to a given level of competence. The improved test data are determined using the test case development methodology and the test data adequacy criterion being applied. For increase the level of automation and performance, these aspects of test case development need to be studied. This paper studies the various test case generation techniques using soft computing techniques like Genetic Algorithm, Artificial Bee colony methods. Further an evaluation criterion for the test case generation process, empirical study of Code Coverage and its importance is discussed.

THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FLEXIBLE WORKING AND JOB SATISFACTION: A RESEARCH IN LOGISTICS SECTOR

The competitive environment caused by globalization lead to logistics companies to increase their service quality and implement best practices in order to meet customer demands and to reduce their supply times. The intensity of working hours and difficult working conditions makes the attracting and retaining of talented employees difficult for logistics firms. Therefore, the effect of flexible working arrangements on increasing job satisfaction and employee loyalty in the logistics sector becomes important. In this study, the effect of flexible working on employee’s job satisfaction and the mediating role of organizational commitment in this effect were investigated. In the research, 82 employees’ data used from 10 leading companies in their sectors implementing flexible working arrangements and the data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 program. Flexible Working Scale developed by Albion (2004), Organizational Commitment Scale developed by Allen and Meyer (1990), Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale developed by Weiss et al. (1967) were used to measure the attitudes of the employees. Research results show that there is a positive and meaningful relationship between flexible working and job satisfaction, between job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Furthermore, the results have shown that organizational commitment has a mediating role between flexible working and job satisfaction. In other words, as organizational commitment mediates in the relationship between flexible working and job satisfaction, as organizational commitment increases, job satisfaction also increases.

An Analysis of Working Conditions of Filipinos in Malta

Malta is experiencing a strong economic growth which is attracting increasing numbers of foreign workers. This study investigates the working conditions experienced by Filipinos in Malta, the largest group of migrants from outside the European Union. Survey data collected from a sample of 317 Filipino workers was compared to the results of the Sixth European Working Conditions Survey. While most respondents experience positive work outcomes, a significant minority grapples with negative conditions and perceptions. Overall, the Filipino respondents in Malta appear to face more difficult working conditions than other migrants in Europe. Nearly half of the respondents report that their health or safety is at risk because of their work and over a fourth suffered from discrimination during the year leading to the research. A substantial minority of Filipinos work below their skill levels and more than 40 hours per week. About a third of the respondents are not satisfied with their working conditions, claim not to be treated fairly at work and do not find sufficient help and support from their managers and colleagues. This study indicates the need to take into consideration the realities of both the home and host countries when analyzing the working situation of migrants. It highlights the employment vulnerability of migrant Filipino workers in Malta, and points to an apparent structural deficiency in the Maltese society to protect them.

Recent Trends in Deep Learning Based Abstractive Text Summarization

With the rapid growth of cyberspace and the appearance of knowledge exploration era, good text summarization method is vital to reduce the large data. Text summarization is the mechanism of extracting the important information which gives us an overall abstract or summary of the entire document and also reduces the size of the document. It is open problem in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and a difficult work for humans to understand and generate an abstract manually while it have need of a accurate analysis of the document. Text Summarization has become an important and timely tool for assisting and interpreting text information. It is generally distinguished into: Extractive and Abstractive. The first method directly chooses and outputs the relevant sentences in the original document; on the other hand, the latter rewrites the original document into summary using NLP techniques. From these two methods, abstractive text summarization is laborious task to realize as it needs correct understanding and sentence amalgamation. This paper gives a brief survey of the distinct attempts undertaken in the field of abstractive summarization. It collectively summarizes the numerous technologies, difficulties and problem of abstractive summarization.

ROBOTIZATION OF MANUFACTURING PROCESS: ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL PROBLEMS AND LEGAL WAYS OF THEIR SOLUTION

It is substantiated that the decrease due to the robotization of manufacturing process of the number of working places, should aim the state for the need to revise the tax system and change the approaches to financing free access of citizens to public goods. The robotization and automation of manufacturing process must be taxed, and the appropriate funds should be directed at the social security of citizens. These funds should be directed in accordance with the newly adopted laws on professional, spiritual, cultural and physical development of the individual through the creation of a system of free access to public goods. The robotization and automation of manufacturing process should be aimed at facilitating and improving the lives and health of workers, in particular by reducing the workplaces in hazardous, harmful and difficult working conditions, which requires appropriate changes to labor legislation. Free from work time appeared due to robotization and automation of the manufacturing process should be aimed at the training of workers, and it should also get its regulatory consolidation. There are defended the following key ideas in the article: 1) taxation of roboters’ work in proportion to reduced workplaces; 2) the formation, distribution and use of tax revenues from robotization should be subordinated to social goals based on the principles of «justice» and «social function of property». The funds from the taxation of robots should be aimed at ensuring standards of decent life such as: education, health, culture, security; 3) the states should stimulate the primary robotization of manufacturing processes conducted in hazardous, unsafe and difficult working conditions. For example, the manufacturing processes carried out in contaminated with harmful substances in the sites; underground work; work at low or high temperatures; heavy work related to lifting and moving loads etc.; 4) today it is necessary to reform the system of education and training of specialists in accordance with the perspective needs of labor market, where continuity of training should become the basis for professional development of the employee.

STATE AND FEATURES OF FRUIT GROWING DEVELOPMENT IN VINNYTSIA REGION

The article investigates the current state and peculiarities of horticulture development in Vinnytsia region, which are preceded by special natural-climatic and economic conditions. The factors of external and internal environment on the prospects of horticulture development in the region are considered. The analysis of the enterprises of Vinnytsia region, which form the basis of growing and processing of fruit and vegetable products. The investigated enterprises of Vinnytsia region have developed a marketing strategy for entering new international markets of products, improved advertising and product quality, sorting and transportation conditions. The cost of production collected using manual labor is several times higher than the cost of collected and sorted products at the enterprises with mechanized machinery. In order to fully evaluate the volume of horticultural products in the region, the yield and gross harvest for individual years were investigated. The increase in the volume of fruit and berry production contributes to the development of processing enterprises in Vinnytsia region and to entering new markets with finished products in fresh or frozen form. Typical vegetable products exported to European Union countries are presented. For an example of consumption of basic products per person according to the medical standards defined by the World Health Organization are given. There is a gradual decrease in consumption of vegetables, fruits and berries per person, insolvency of consumers, difficult working conditions, lack of state support have led to such results. Today, the development of fruit and vegetable production contributes to the economic growth of the agricultural sector not only in the analyzed region, but in Ukraine as a whole. Growing quality horticultural products at an affordable price for all categories of the population allows to increase the consumption of such products, which in turn improves the well-being and health of the population. The conducted researches help to develop a comprehensive program of food security of the region and the country for providing full nutrition of the population in accordance with medical norms.

Clinical typology and mechanisms of psychogenesis of states of psychological maladaptation of internship doctors

A comprehensive examination of 213 interns of both sexes was carried out. A system of psychotherapeutic correction of maladaptive states and psycho-preventive support of interns during the period of professional training has been developed. Levels of adaptation of internship doctors for professional activity were emphasized: high (14,1 %), average (20,2 %) and low level (65,7 %). It was described the asthenical (25,8 % of men and 22,5 % of women), hypersthenic (20,6 % of men and 23,2 % of women), anxiodepressive (11,3 % and 20,6 % respectively), psychosomatic (14,5 % of men and 18,1 % of women), asthenic-apathetical (12,3 % and 11,2 % respectively) and addictive (15,5 % of men and 4,4 % of women) variants of maladaptive reactions among the internship doctors. The developed model of the formation of disorders of adaptation of internship doctors is presented by a complex of pathogenic factors. It was established that the basis for the formation of maladaptive reactions among the internship doctors is the presence of somatic pathology, craniocerebral injury and neuroinfection in the anamnesis and the tendency to addictive behavior. Prognostically important factors in the formation of adaptation disorders are conflicts of family and professional relations, disturbing suspiciousness, low communicativeness, difficult working conditions, lack of positive emotions, awareness of inadequate level of competence, low level of motivation, and imperfectiveness of mechanisms of psychological protection. Triggers for the development of maladaptive states are the high level of professional stress, depletion of adaptation, prolonged mental stress, frustration of significant basic needs, and high rates of clinical scale of anxiety and depression HDRS. An individualized three-stage system of medical and psychological support during the professional training period, which involves the application of complex psychodiagnostic, psychotherapeutic, psychoeducational and psychoprophylactic influences, has been developed and tested.
