Contemporary television programs for children - good witches or evil fairies for little viewers?
Why did modern children’s television programs disappear from the program schedule of the Bulgarian National Television? How did foreign channels for kids took the place of Bulgarian TV productions for children and what are the consequences for the audience? What do young viewers learn from the endless animation series? On the benefits and harms of sitting in front of the TV screen. Is there a TV way out of the situation
In search of modern aesthetics: Emergence of cutting and collage in Bulgarian animated cinema from the 60‘s of the last century
Hiroshima, Mokusatsu and Alleged Mistranslations
This paper revisits the issue of the importance of context and critical thinking in translation and translation training by examining the linguistic controversy over the translation of the word mokusatsu in the statement of Japan’s Prime Minister Suzuki in response to the Potsdam Declaration. There is a widespread belief that the bombing of Hiroshima in August of 1945 was caused by a translation mistake. The author sides with the opposing view, i.e. that such an approach takes one word of the statement out of context in order to shift the focus of the problem from politics to linguistics. The message of the statement is unambiguous when analyzed in its entirety. As a result, it is obvious there was no translation mistake and the bomb was dropped for reasons other than translation quality. Sadly enough, the myth lives on as a textbook example of ‘the worst translation mistake in history†whereas it should be taught as an example of probably ‘the worst translation myth in history’
Integrated thematic direction: Economy – human capital - values
Investigating the effects of development dynamics on our foreign trade, using a calculated index to compare results with those of the EU, stimulating the search for new sources of economic growth, strategic decision-making for catching up, but also pre-emptive measures to ensure the sustainablecompetitive advantage of our national economy
Alternative segmentation approaches for user typology profiling in gamified system, designed for company employee usage
We could profi le the employee of a company in many different ways. Nevertheless, when talking about gamifi ed system for employee motivation, there is a specifi c profi ling that could be done in terms of people being in a game like circumstances. In this research we propose some alternative approaches for such system, user’s profi ling and the results are interpreted as well as the advantages and disadvantages are discussed in relation to future system improvement
EMC assassement criteria and interference protection for basic radio services in accordance with ITU-R recommendations
The effect of unwanted energy due to one or a combination of several desired and unwanted emissions upon reception in a radio communication system results in performance degradation, misinterpretation or loss of information. Multiple sources of interference may affect the receiver input: services of the same type or other operating in the same frequency band, services operating in adjacent frequency bands, sources generating continuous or short term interferences, fixed or mobile sources, etc. To prevent such interfering situations, a key element is the standardization of appropriate criteria for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and interference protection (IPC). The purpose of the studies and analyzes in this article is to systematize the criteria for electromagnetic compatibility for basic radio services based on the Publications of ITU-R. Criteria for four important areas of radio communications covering fixed, fixed satellite, broadcasting and mobile radio services are compared. Contributions are the categorization of the criteria according to the type of interfering signal and the results of the analyses, which show that the regulatory requirements and practical methods for interference protection and EMC for different radio services differ. Detailed criteria for predicting the probability of interference being standardized only for some radio services
Analysis of types of communication services for 6G
The aim of this paper is to analyze the different types of communication services, requirements and applications related to 6G deployment, in accordance to those in 5G, and based on the definitions in the ITU recommendations. In this regard, the requirements for 6G and key performance indicators related to applications for 6G are described, arising from technological development. The results are related to obtaining summary information about the structures and features of the functioning of the various proposed communication services. Classification of the types of services in 6G has been made (new types of services in 6G, combined types of services in 6G (based on types of services in 5G), introduction of standard communication services to maintain potential scenarios for application in 6G communications). The contributions of the work are related to the in-depth analysis of the relationship between the type of services and defined requirements for 6G, presented in tabular form and conclusions are drawn
