Polycentric governance: Evaluating the relevance of traditional authorities in good governance in South Africa by Samson Faboye, Trynos Gumbo, Jackson Sebola

“…The study argues that good governance is defined by its ability to meet the needs of the broader populace, not simply select groups. It proposes a formalised polycentric governance framework that elevates traditional authorities as key actors in local government, with a focus on areas such as administrative hierarchy, development planning, land governance, and natural resource management. …”

Adaptation of the modular number system in threshold secret sharing schemes by A. F. Chernyavskiy, A. I. Kazlova, V. S. Sadov, A. A. Kolyada

“…The results of the presented work allow to conclude for modular threshold cryptosystems of secret sharing in distributed data processing systems that the use of a linear masking function and narrowing the range of changes in the masking analogue S̃ of the original secret S, allowing for minimally redundant coding for the selected p1, p2, …, pn, causes a significant reduction in the computational complexity of the calculated minimal-redundant modular arithmetic relations of integral characteristics within the framework of the model under study. …”
