Transparent memory tests with even repeating addresses for storage devices by V. N. Yarmolik, I. M. Mrozek, V. A. Levantsevich, D. V. Demenkovets

“…The maximum diagnostic ability of new tests is shown for the case of the simplest faults, such as constant (SAF) and transition faults (TF), as well as for complex pattern sensitive faults (PNPSFk). There is a significantly lower time complexity of the March_pA_1 and March_pA_2 tests compared to classical transparent tests, which is achieved at the expense of less time spent on obtaining a reference signature. …”

Psychological distress and coping strategies among Indonesian psychologists during the COVID-19 pandemic: a two-wave cross-lagged study by Fitri Ariyanti Abidin, Ahmad Gimmy Prathama, Efi Fitriana, Evy Sulfiani Komala, Joeri K. Tijdink

“…Notably, maladaptive coping strategies demonstrated a similar pattern, predicting the continued use of maladaptive coping techniques over time, but they were also consistently associated with psychological distress across both time points, though they did not significantly predict future psychological distress.Discussion: These findings shed light on the dynamic nature of coping strategies and psychological distress among psychologists, presenting significant implications for their support systems and mental health during the challenges posed by the pandemic. …”

Impact of tropical Cyclone Marcus on ocean subsurface and surface layers by A.F. Koropitan, M.H.I. Khaldun, Y. Naulita

“…The present study applies the Argo Float data located near the peak of the Cyclone Markus path and could capture the subsurface layer vertically that has never been reported previously.METHODS: This study performs Copernicus data set and Argo Float data to analyze the oceanographic feature of the region before, during, and after Cyclone Marcus.FINDINGS: The average surface current velocity increased almost two times during Cyclone Marcus, and the eddy was formed in the clockwise direction following the surface wind pattern. The Argo Float data presents that Cyclone Marcus could induce surface divergence (clockwise eddy) where the cold water and high salinity waters pumped up to the surface layer, starting 1 day after the peak of Cyclone Marcus, resulting in cooling surface temperature by 1.7 °C and deepening mixed layer depth up to 60 m. …”
