The article presents the results of a research of different types of activity depending on the frequency of transfer of social activity from the real environment to the virtual environment and vice versa. In the course of the research the following types of activity were identified: play activity; educational activity; work; communicative activity. 214 respondents from the following cities participated in the research: Balakovo, Saratov, Moscow. They were at the age of 15 to 24 years. 52% of them were women. They had the following social statuses: "pupil", "student", "young specialist". The correlation interrelation between the specified types of activity and the frequency of transfer of social activity from one environment into another has been analyzed and interpreted. In the course of the research the following results were received: the frequency of transfer of social activity from the real environment to the virtual environment has a direct positive link with such types of activity as play activity (r=0.221; p <0.01); educational activity (r=0.228; p <0.01) and communicative activity (r=0.346; p <0.01). The frequency of transfer of social activity from the virtual environment to the real one has a direct positive link only with two types of activity: educational activity (r=0.188; p <0.05) and communicative activity (r=0.331; p <0.01).

The outbreak of COVID-19 has a great impact on the world. Considering that there are different infection delays among different populations, which can be expressed as distributed delay, and the distributed time-delay is rarely used in fractional-order model to simulate the real data, here we establish two different types of fractional order (Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio) COVID-19 models with distributed time-delay. Parameters are estimated by the least-square method according to the report data of China and other 12 countries. The results of Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio model with distributed time-delay and without delay, the integer-order model with distributed delay are compared. These show that the fractional-order model can be better in fitting the real data. Moreover, Caputo order is better in short-term time fitting, Caputo–Fabrizio order is better in long-term fitting and prediction. Finally, the influence of several parameters is simulated in Caputo order model, which further verifies the importance of taking strict quarantine measures and paying close attention to the incubation period population.

Augmented reality (AR) systems typically use see-through head-mounted displays (STHMDs) to superimpose images of computer-generated objects onto the user's view of the real environment in order to augment it with additional information. The main failing of current AR systems is that the virtual objects displayed in the STHMD appear in the wrong position relative to the real environment. This registration error has many causes: system delay, tracker error, calibration error, optical distortion, and misalignment of the model, to name only a few. Although some work has been done in the area of system calibration and error correction, very little work has been done on characterizing the nature and sensitivity of the errors that cause misregistration in AR systems. This paper presents the main results of an end-to-end error analysis of an optical STHMD-based tool for surgery planning. The analysis was done with a mathematical model of the system and the main results were checked by taking measurements on a real system under controlled circumstances. The model makes it possible to analyze the sensitivity of the system-registration error to errors in each part of the system. The major results of the analysis are: (1) Even for moderate head velocities, system delay causes more registration error than all other sources combined; (2) eye tracking is probably not necessary; (3) tracker error is a significant problem both in head tracking and in system calibration; (4) the World (or reference) coordinate system adds error and should be omitted when possible; (5) computational correction of optical distortion may introduce more delay-induced registration error than the distortion error it corrects, and (6) there are many small error sources that will make submillimeter registration almost impossible in an optical STHMD system without feedback. Although this model was developed for optical STHMDs for surgical planning, many of the results apply to other HMDs as well.

The article considers the importance of the stage of writing headlines in the process of preparing PR-texts on tourism, indicates the features of creating titles of different types of PR-texts published in online publications, identifies factors that affect the reader's attention and facilitate the perception of the title. When promoting a tourism product on the foreign market, it is important to adhere to the principle of conformity. This means that the image that is promoted on the market must correspond to the level of development of society, so as not to irritate the client by the inconsistency of the created image with the real state of the tourist area.

In The Real Dope: Social, Legal, and Historical Perspectives on the Regulation of Drugs in Canada, Edgar-Andre? Montigny brings together a broad range of recent writing on a wide variety of drugs. The collection is well worth reading for the insights it provides into Canada’s socio-legal historical experience of the regulation of different psychoactive substances and for its documentation of the wealth of expertise coalescing in this area of research. This subject matter has inspired much critical analysis and scholarly debate about the role of academics in informing policy discussions about drug use and support for liberal drug policy reform. The present contribution is unique in its broad coverage of different “types” of drugs in different eras, and in its accessible, coherent presentation of historical material. Each chapter stands both alone and as an asset to its larger contemporary relevance, as interpreted by authors drawn from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds.

Abstract An improvement of ecological conscience currently has increased the consciousness of researchers in reducing the processing time and cost of solvent for the dissolution of cellulose. Latterly, ionic liquids have been employed to process cellulose as they are recyclable and nonvolatile. Besides that, biopolymers such as chitosan, chitin, starch, protein, and cellulose acetate can also be processed by using ionic liquids for diverse applications. In this short review, examples of imidazolium-based ionic liquids that are commonly used for the dissolution of cellulose are implied. Furthermore, examples of organic liquids that are utilized as co-solvents for ionic liquids were revealed. In addition, examples of imidazolium-based ionic liquid/co-solvent mixtures utilized in the dissolution of cellulose and other biopolymers are also demonstrated. The properties and applications of cellulose and its blends regenerated from different types of cellulose/imidazolium-based ionic liquid/co-solvent solutions are also shortly reviewed. The information acquired from this review gives a better understanding of the changes in the properties of regenerated cellulose and regenerated cellulose blends. In addition, this short review serves as a model basis for the creation of novel applications of regenerated cellulose and regenerated cellulose blends by utilizing imidazolium-based ionic liquid/co-solvent mixtures.
