The framework initiated with the integration of DCT and generalized logistic map to unify both pair of images. This unified image is then encrypted using the Schur decomposition and magic square method. The various experiments and analysis have been done to explore the validity, proficiency and performance of the purport framework.

The teaching of SVT in general offers learners an environment that allows them to explore and explain natural phenomena, to understand different spatio-temporal scales, to understand the world around them so that they can decide and act responsibly. It is interesting to note that the scientific ecological outing (SES) is an integral part of the SVT teaching program, at both college and qualifying secondary level, and that teachers are called to organize these outings in agreement with the programs as recalled by the circulars of the MEN. However, the SES allows the real observation and the execution of experiential practices in the field, it is the opportunity to place the learner in a learning situation according to a reflective and investigative scientific approach from his confrontation with reality Cariou J (2013), (2015) Offers a didactic framework and formalizes evaluation criteria for the implementation and management of a scientific investigation process. So that he can make connections with what the learner acquires as abstract knowledge in class in order to be able to decide and act responsibly and critically on the scale of everyday situations as an Eco citizen.

Available research suggests using Blockchain in electronic medical files to aggregate and integrate information. While reviewing authoritative articles and books, we analyzed the challenges and opportunities of using Blockchain this way. By using the specialists' opinion, completing a specialist questionnaire, using the DEMETEL technique and interpretive structural modeling (ISM) technique, this research investigated and analyzed the possibilities of using Blockchain in electronic medical files. The pair comparison technique was used to study and analyze the challenges of using Blockchain this way. The results are stated in this research. Research achievements include the design of a model using Blockchain for electronic medical files, analysis of Block chain's opportunities and challenges, measurement of the components, design and presentation of the model, and prioritizing the challenges of using Blockchain. This research suggests that the use of Blockchain in electronic medical files can reduce extra costs, create a comprehensive system for medical records to avoid additional costs, facilitate access to patient information, and reduce medical errors. The results obtained reveal that the components of immutability and the impossibility of data forgery of patient records (based on data integration in Blockchain) have the most impact on the system. Examination of the challenges reveals that blockchain technology's challenges (low speed, difficulty working with Blockchain, poor integrations between the software for various electronic health records) are of the utmost importance.

The volume of digital text data is continuously increasing both online and offline storage, which makes it difficult to read across documents on a particular topic and find the desired information within a possible available time. This necessitates the use of technique such as automatic text summarization. Many approaches and algorithms have been proposed for automatic text summarization including; supervised machine learning, clustering, graph-based and lexical chain, among others. This paper presents a novel systematic review of various graph-based automatic text summarization models.

From the recent literature review, it is evident that existing agile methodology lacks the method to evaluate the requirement understanding of agile team members for a given set of requirement chosen for agile software development. Hence, there is a need to introduce a requirement understanding check to ensure every agile team member follows the given requirement clearly without any ambiguity. To fill this existing gap, this research paper proposes to extend the usage of story cards to evaluate the understanding of the given requirement and to highlight any challenges and risks in the early stage of requirement understanding under agile software development methodology, if any. This paper primarily focuses to introduce a robust requirement understanding evaluation process in agile methodology. The research results were found to be motivating and were analyzed by comparing the data-points using time-series for performing agile query analysis, agile team velocity analysis and agile team involvement analysis for two agile teams where one team delivered the sprint output using agile traditional method while another team opted for proposed approach. A considerable decrease of 33.07% was observed in the number of queried raised and a significant increase of 26.36% in agile velocity was observed for agile sprint under proposed approach when compared to agile traditional approach. Also, a significant shift from 40%-80% team involvement under traditional agile method was uplifted to 80%-90% team involvement under proposed approach.

The constant evolution of technological tools and the benefit of the introduction of new technologies in the teaching and learning process in schools, suggests that the possibilities of using digital technology in the practices of the evaluation of learning inside and outside the classroom. Faced with the diversity of technical tools and methods, the teacher is called upon, before addressing his learners, to make a certain number of technical, didactic and pedagogical choices, to set his pedagogical scenario, this is all the more so. Necessary for the conduct of learning activities or to design and implement its assessment tool. In this perspective, we are entitled to ask the question relating to the attitudes and feedbacks of teachers and learners regarding the integration of ICT in assessment practices. This question is broken down into several sub-questions: "At what points, and how do teachers of Life and Earth Sciences integrate digital technology into their assessment practices?" is this integration determined by the educational pathways? What interest and what limit of the use of digital technology according to teachers and learners? "  To answer our problem, we opted for export research, the recommended methodology of which is based on a multidimensional survey, in which we first questioned the teachers around the use of new technologies in the evaluation process, and secondly, to identify the degree of motivation and commitment of learners in instrumented and innovative assessment situations. Our research context is represented by 34 schools, 22 from qualifying secondary education and 12 from college education (from the provincial delegation of Taza), with a varied population of 431 students of all levels and sectors, as well as than a number of 132 teachers of life and earth sciences. Finally, confirming that despite the satisfaction of the majority of teachers and students with respect to the functional qualities and the contribution of technological tools in evaluation practices, some disparities were noted whether at the technical, spatiotemporal level or even organizational.

The inefficiency of the national security system is one of the biggest threats to Ukraine's national security. The strategic planning in the field of security and defense has designed to identify the means, including the future structure of forces, that would allow the institutions of the defense and security sector to effectively deal with potential future threats. The purpose of this study is development of theoretical and practical measures to increase the effectiveness of strategic management of national security processes on the basis of goal setting, forecasting and planning in the context of informatization of society. The relevance of this study is due to the needlegal regulation and improvement of the state system of strategic planning of national security of Ukraine. To achieve the goal of the study was used special scientific methods of legal knowledge. The results of the analysis showedwhat in the basis ensuring national security must rely on the principle of systematization, which means that the security and defense sector of Ukraine is considered as a single object of forecasting and planning. This study substantiates the main directions systemic reform of the security and defense sector, which has carried out in Ukraine to ensure the protection of the constitutional order, sovereignty, territorial integrity of the state in the face of armed aggression. The priorities should be implemented through key tasks, such as the establishment of a comprehensive strategic analysis of military threats to Ukraine's national security, coordination of intelligence activities, development of joint intelligence capabilities of the defense forces in order to obtain complete and reliable warning information for timely decision-making guaranteeing the military security of the state.

For this purpose, the academic literature and content analyses of organized marketplaces were performed. The results showed that end users are not always interested in changing the service and try to choose services/resources well known to them. At the same time, market operators see the need for radical change by introducing strategic innovations and digitizing energy markets. Sustainable e-government management models are typically sustained by IoT, blockchain, and smart grid management technologies.

The study has two main objectives: firstly, to examine the opportunity of the Momentum and Contrarian investment strategy for three different monetary systems to trade currencies in Forex markets using Symlet wavelet decomposition approach. Secondly, to examine the co-movements between the three monetary systems using wavelet coherence analysis. The findings indicate that an investor with momentum strategy can consider investing in Bitcoin and Gold market, while the contrarian investment strategy is more advisable for the fiat money market during crisis period. Furthermore, the wavelet coherence analysis indicates that Bitcoin currency is the most leading monetary system during the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, followed by gold. However, US dollar mostly leads Bitcoin during non-crisis periods, while Gold is found to lead the US dollar throughout the sample period of the study. This suggests that the cryptocurrency system or gold standard should be considered as the alternative monetary system for better economic stability specially during the crisis period. Moreover, Bitcoin and gold had an anti-phase correlation before the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, which implies better benefits of hedging in the non-crisis period, while during a crisis they are moving together across different horizons. In contrast, Bitcoin and Fiat Money are strongly correlated during non-crisis periods, while during covide-19 pandemic crisis the correlation is statistically insignificant. Overall, the outcomes offer significant guidance for policymakers in understanding which monetary system leads to better economic stability during the crisis period and provides many implications for market players such hedging and Diversification investments strategy in forex markets.
