Emergence Of New Components Research Articles

DEVELOPMENT OF PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCES IN THE CONDITIONS OF NON-FORMAL EDUCATION

In connection with the transition of the Republic of Kazakhstan to a market economy, the growth of globalization processes and the increase in the need for highly qualified specialists, the discrepancy between the training of bachelors and the modern requirements of employers is becoming more and more obvious. This leads to the emergence of new components of professional competence, which more fully and reliably allow the future specialist to carry out professional activities. Therefore, in addition to the main EP in the relevant area of study at the university, it is necessary to introduce additional programs that will be relevant in real time, and their implementation will go beyond formal education. In this regard, the purpose of our study is to substantiate the role of non-formal education in the development of professional competencies of students in the direction of "Pedagogical Sciences".The relevance of our study lies in the fact that in modern conditions for the effective and timely development of students' professional competencies, it is necessary to use other forms along with formal education - non-formal and blended learning. Through these forms, a timely “response” to employers’ requests for the development of the necessary professional competencies is possible.The scientific novelty of the study was the development of a program aimed at developing the professional competencies of university students in the framework of non-formal education.

MOTIVATIONAL FEATURES OF THE LINGUOCULTURAL CONCEPT TEXTILE IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE

The article is dedicated to the investigation of the motivational features of the linguocultural concept TEXTILE in the English language. The investigation has been done within the framework of the cognitive scientific paradigm, namely, linguoconceptology and linguoculturology. Despite the large number of researches devoted to the study of motivational features of concepts in the English language, it should be admitted that the concept of TEXTILE still has not been properly investigated. According to the fact that the motivational features are understood as the internal form of the word, etymological analysis based on the comparative-historical method was used to identify them. The research was based on etymological dictionaries, general explanatory dictionaries of the English language and dictionaries of textile terminology. An etymological study of the English lexeme ‘textile’ revealed that its original form was a derivative from a Pre-Indo-European root meaning “to weave”. As a result of the study of the etymological dictionaries entries of the English language, 7 main motivational features of the studied concept were identified, namely: ‘canvas’, ‘cloth’, ‘fabric’, ‘texture’, ‘tissue', ‘web’ and ‘woven’. The source of the aforementioned English lexemes was both Germanic and Romance languages. Three of these lexemes come from Old French, namely ‘canvas’, ‘fabric’ and ‘tissue’; English lexemes ‘cloth’, ‘web’ and ‘weave (woven)’ come from Proto-Germanic; and the lexeme ‘texture’ is derived from Middle French. There is also a gradual increase in the volume of the concept structure due to the emergence of new components that reflect the current understanding of the concept under study. The prospect of the research is seen in further investigation of the verbalised concept of TEXTILE in the English language.

Transformation of legal impact in the context of the modern information and technological structure (case study of the relations connected with genomic information)

The article is devoted to a crucial theoretical issue of the impact transformation under the influence of digital technologies. It is necessary to distinguish the process of law evolution in general and legal impact in particular, which presupposes a gradual, "dosed" change in the regulatory legal framework of the state in the direction of its greater adaptation to changing socio-economic and political realities from a more radical version of changes - from the transformation of legal impact under the influence of digital technologies and new qualities acquired by the information society. Legal impact in the digital environment demonstrates not only a new type of subjects, previously unknown to the classical paradigm of law, but also a special type of legal ties. From a legal point of view, the relationship pattern is of contractual nature on the Internet, reflecting the conventional process of interaction of quasi-subjects of law, which corresponds to the nature of almost any network interaction. However, the specificity is that norms are formed; and they contain self-regulation rules and have a legal impact on the subjects of network communication. The transformation of legal impact in the above sense presupposes qualitative changes in legal impact that are local in time, but reactive (accelerated) in intensity, accompanied by the complication of the legal impact organization, the emergence of new components under the influence of technological factors and, accordingly, new functions. The objective is to demonstrate the vector of changes in the contemporary theory of legal impact and acquire a new look for it. We use the data and material of modern characteristics of society to solve the problem. The transformation of legal impact occurs under the influence of changes in the legal and social systems having occurred as a result of the reconfiguration of social objects, which are traditional areas of legal impact, and owing to the forced transformation of legal means used by the state. The basic features of such transformation are revealed by the example of a theoretical comprehension of the “genomic information” concept and the attitude of the legislator to it. The result of the study is the conclusion that the transformation of legal impact is a sequential system of organizational, legal, mental shifts (innovations), which provide for the creation of new components of legal impact that do not coincide with their previous structures with a supplementary (or new) set of functions.

ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЯ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЇ СИСТЕМИ: ТЕОРЕТИЧНІ ОСНОВИ

Open economic systems are influenced by a significant number of factors, which by their nature can be both external and internal. The influence of factors causes changes in the system, which is determined by the content of the concept of “transformation”. The concept of “transformation” has long roots of application and today can be considered interdisciplinary. For our country, the transformation is largely due to the changes in the national economy that have taken place over the past three decades. The performed generalization proves that the transformation is characteristic of every open economic system, and its course requires control and management. The aim of the study was to consider the theoretical foundations of the transformation of the economic system with the definition of security aspects as a condition for the existence and development of such a system. To determine the theoretical foundations of the transformation of the economic system used methods: induction and deduction, comparison and systematization – in the study of the essential characteristics of the term “transformation”; synthesis and analysis – to determine the theoretical foundations of the transformation of any system; morphological analysis – to clarify the security aspects of the transformation of the economic system; graphic – for visual presentation of theoretical and methodical material; abstract-logical – for theoretical generalizations and conclusions of the study. It is revealed that the transformation formed at the intersection of scientific approaches is characteristic of the existence and development of any systems. The process of transformation itself involves a change in its composition, i.e. the disappearance of existing and the emergence of new components, changes in the properties of individual components, forms of functioning, creates a basis for the transition to another state. The following main parameters are defined as the theoretical basis for the transformation of any system: a radical change of interests, priorities and values; occurs at all hierarchical levels and applies to all elements of the system; qualitative change of the system, in particular its components, parameters, structure and connections; general form of system development; system transformations are caused by internal and external factors; multistage process of change; the process of transforming one system into another; carried out consistently and continuously. The defined theoretical bases allow, taking into account possible changes in the system at the moments of its loss of stability, to predict the further course of events with the formation of the program of transition to the next level of development. Emphasis is placed on the security aspects of the transformation, which allows both to stabilize the situation and to form a basis for development despite the influence of internal and external factors.

ТРАНСФОРМАЦИЯ МЕЖДУНАРОДНЫХ ИНФОРМАЦИОННЫХ АГЕНТСТВ

The functions of the IA system are provided by its structure. The development of the structure is associated with the emergence of new components, formats, structural links, the expansion of specialization and integration, an increase in the number of multi-format materials and the creation of interactive services. The regulator of structural ties in the system today is the presence of market relations and competition. This also determines the typology of modern information Internet agencies. Their division according to various criteria (territorial characteristics, specialization, etc.) is a necessary condition for the formation of a full-fledged system. Constant changes at different levels of this global mechanism indicate that the process is not yet complete. Network agencies continue to experiment with the format and develop the technological capabilities of their own Internet resources.

Imperatives of global digital platform management

The article critically analyses the phenomenon of global digital platforms, which have become key actors in the international movement of factors of production and studies the approaches to their management. The methodological basis of the research includes the main provisions of the emerging theory of ecosystems and digital platforms, questioning the postulates of theories of international business and strategic management. The article uses the methods of comparative, structural and system-based analysis in the context of their application for assessing digital transformation and managing global digital platforms. The study shows that universal determinants and competitive advantages of global digital platforms are the following: the ability to overcome trade barriers; providing liquidity through transactions; low marginal cost; more efficient use of assets and attraction of investments; and the ability to significantly enhance international specialization. The authors propose an approach for differentiating traditional business models and platform business models based on avoiding linear optimization of internal processes and centralized exchange of value. We establish the conceptual aspects of the expansion of global digital platforms’ business activities. This is due to the emergence of new components of the digital infrastructure that modifies the principles of international business and the administration methods of transnational corporations, which are no longer focused on location. The paper identifies the management problems and risks experienced by traditional companies when creating platforms: dependence on key platforms, increasing costs incurred in market entry, and difficulties when functioning within the lightweight asset model. The formation and development of global platforms not only affect the system of economic relations, but also stimulate changes in corporate governance models and technologies.

STRATEGY FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION DEVELOPMENT IN CONDITIONS OF GROWTH OF THE NATIONAL ECONOMY OPENNESS

Introduction. The implementation in practice of the conditions for the sustainable agricultural production development in Ukraine requires a study of its functioning components: economic, social and environmental ones. However, with the growing openness of the national economy for the agricultural production development, new challenges arise, accompanied by the emergence of new components to ensure full-fledged conditions for its sustainable development. The purpose of this article is to study the peculiarities of the strategy formation for sustainable development of agricultural production in terms of increasing openness of the national economy. Results. To substantiate the strategy of sustainable agricultural production development in terms of growing openness of the national economy, it is necessary to identify strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats to its implementation. This allows simulating the relations between the strengths and weaknesses of the object of analysis and its potential and actual threats. Taking into account the data of the SWOT-analysis of factors and conditions of sustainable agricultural production development in Ukraine in the conditions of growing openness of national economy, all possible pair combinations are considered, and those, which should be considered at strategy formation of sustainable agricultural production development in Ukraine in the conditions of growing openness of national economy. Conclusions. Given the growing openness of the national economy, the transition of domestic agricultural production to the principles of sustainable development is an unalterable scenario. Only with such an approach, it is possible to ensure full use and full reproduction of the resource potential of the agricultural sector of Ukraine's economy, the formation of economically balanced, environmentally sustainable and socially oriented production system. The analysis of the interrelationships of factors in the sectors of comparative advantages, security, challenges and threats indicates the existence of a potential opportunity for sustainable development of agricultural production in Ukraine in the conditions of growing openness of the national economy. To do this, it is necessary to form a mixed strategy by combining comparative advantages using opportunities to strengthen weaknesses. Key words: agricultural production, sustainable development, strategy, growing openness of national economy.

Neuronal Bases of Systemic Organization of Behavior.

Despite the years of studies in the field of systems neuroscience, functions of neural circuits and behavior-related systems are still not entirely clear. The systems description of brain activity has recently been associated with cognitive concepts, e.g. a cognitive map, reconstructed via place-cell activity analysis and the like, and a cognitive schema, modeled in consolidation research. The issue we find of importance is that a cognitive unit reconstructed in neuroscience research is mainly formulated in terms of environment. In other words, the individual experience is considered as a model or reflection of the outside world and usually lacks a biological meaning, such as describing a given part of the world for the individual. In this chapter, we present the idea of a cognitive component that serves as a model of behavioral interaction with environment, rather than a model of the environment itself. This intangible difference entails the need in substantial revision of several well-known phenomena, including the long-term potentiation.The principal questions developed here are how the cognitive units appear and change upon learning and performance, and how the links between them create the whole structure of individual experience. We argue that a clear distinction between processes that provide the emergence of new components and those underlying the retrieval and/or changes in the existing ones is necessary in learning and memory research. We then describe a view on learning and corresponding neuronal activity analysis that may help set this distinction.

Pubertal development shapes perception of complex facial expressions.

We previously hypothesized that pubertal development shapes the emergence of new components of face processing (Scherf etal., 2012; Garcia & Scherf, 2015). Here, we evaluate this hypothesis by investigating emerging perceptual sensitivity to complex versus basic facial expressions across pubertal development. We tested pre-pubescent children (6-8years), age- and sex-matched adolescents in early and later stages of pubertal development (11-14years), and sexually mature adults (18-24years). Using a perceptual staircase procedure, participants made visual discriminations of both socially complex expressions (sexual interest, contempt) that are arguably relevant to emerging peer-oriented relationships of adolescence, and basic (happy, anger) expressions that are important even in early infancy. Only sensitivity to detect complex expressions improved as a function of pubertal development. The ability to perceive these expressions is adult-like by late puberty when adolescents become sexually mature. This pattern of results provides the first evidence that pubertal development specifically influences emerging affective components of face perception in adolescence.

Formation and applications of nanoparticles in silica optical fibers

Optical fibers are the basis for applications that have grown considerably in recent years (telecommunications, sensors, fiber lasers, etc). Despite undeniable successes, it is necessary to develop new generations of amplifying optical fibers that will overcome some limitations typical of silica glass. In this sense, the amplifying Transparent Glass Ceramics (TGC), and particularly the fibers based on this technology, open new perspectives that combine the mechanical and chemical properties of a glass host with the augmented spectroscopic properties of embedded nanoparticles. This paper is an opportunity to make a state of the art on silica-based optical fibers containing nanoparticles of various types, particularly rare-earth-doped oxide nanoparticles, and on the methods for making such fibers. In the first section of this article, we will review basics on standard optical fibers and on nanoparticle-doped fibers. In the second section we will recall some fabrication methods used for standard optical fibers, and in the third section we will describe how TGC fibers can be obtained. This new generation of fibers, initiated a decade ago, already show very positive outlook and results departing from those obtained previously in homogeneous silica fibers. The next few years should see the emergence of new components based on these optical fibers.

In silico survey of the mitochondrial protein uptake and maturation systems in the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus.

The acquisition of mitochondria was a key event in eukaryote evolution. The aim of this study was to identify homologues of the components of the mitochondrial protein import machinery in the brown alga Ectocarpus and to use this information to investigate the evolutionary history of this fundamental cellular process. Detailed searches were carried out both for components of the protein import system and for related peptidases. Comparative and phylogenetic analyses were used to investigate the evolution of mitochondrial proteins during eukaryote diversification. Key observations include phylogenetic evidence for very ancient origins for many protein import components (Tim21, Tim50, for example) and indications of differences between the outer membrane receptors that recognize the mitochondrial targeting signals, suggesting replacement, rearrangement and/or emergence of new components across the major eukaryotic lineages. Overall, the mitochondrial protein import components analysed in this study confirmed a high level of conservation during evolution, indicating that most are derived from very ancient, ancestral proteins. Several of the protein import components identified in Ectocarpus, such as Tim21, Tim50 and metaxin, have also been found in other stramenopiles and this study suggests an early origin during the evolution of the eukaryotes.

Enhancement of cells proliferation and control of bioactivity of strontium doped glass

Bioactivity and chemical reactivity of bioactive glass offer the ability to bond for soft and hard biological tissues. In this work, synthesis was carried out by using melting and rapid quenching. Strontium was introduced as trace element at different contents in the glass matrix, according to its concentration in the bone matrix. This chemical element presents a high interest in the bone metabolism activity. Investigations were conducted on the surface of biomaterials by using in vitro assay after immersion in SBF. Several physico-chemical methods such as SEM, FTIR, NMR, ICP-OES and MTT test were employed to highlight the effects of the Sr. The in vitro experiments showed that after soaking in SBF, the behaviour of pure glass is different compared to glass doped with Sr. NMR analyses showed in the 29Si MAS-NMR that glass matrix undergoes some changes after in vitro assays particularly the emergence of new components attributed to Q 3(OH). The presence of Sr slowed down the bioactivity of glass after immersion in SBF. The non toxic character of compounds was confirmed. Introduction of Sr at 0.1 wt % induce an enhancement of cells at about 14.3%.
