Grammatical aspect informs us about the internal temporal contours of a situa tion. In other words, aspect provides information as to how the verbal action is to be regarded, whether it is complete, continuous, or iterative. Bosnian grammati calizes the binary system characteristic of Slavic languages that entails that verbs are marked for the perfective or the imperfective aspect. English, on the other hand, grammaticalizes the perfect and the progressive, which do not entirely cor respond to the perfective/imperfective aspectual opposition. Grammatical aspect is an obligatory category in Bosnian, whilst in English, verbs need not be mor phologically marked for aspect. Expectedly, studies report different processing patterns in sentences with aspectual violations in these two languages. It has been shown that native speakers of English do not show electrophysiological responses to violations of aspect, while native speakers of Bosnian show a clear sensitivity to aspectual violations immediately at the verb. Even though they detect aspectual violations already at the point of the verb in Bosnian, their L1, in this study we investigate whether university students of English process aspectual violations in English, their L2. More precisely, we conducted a self-paced reading study to ex plore whether Bosnian university students of English detect aspectual violations at the position of the verb or in adjacent positions during incremental sentence processing. Our results are in line with the previous findings on L1 processing of English aspect – English aspectual violations are not detected online during sen tence comprehension in L2 processing. However, there is an important difference. Unlike native speakers of English, Bosnian university students of English do not detect aspectual violations even after the sentence has been processed. Such re sults provide evidence for the Shallow Structure Hypothesis in L2 processing. We, therefore, compare our findings with other studies on grammatical aspect, con trast L1 and L2 processing, and discuss English and Bosnian grammatical aspect.
The Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand rapidly, yet IoT devices often lack on-device Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) due to strict CPU, RAM, and memory limitations. While prior research has explored machine learning-based IDS, relatively few studies have evaluated models under realistic resource constraints. In this paper, we assess the feasibility of lightweight and efficient machine learning models for multiclass intrusion detection using the ToN_IoT dataset. We compare a Decision Tree (DT), Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM), a Feedforward Neural Network (FNN), and a TinyML-optimized FNN. Our results show that the TinyML FNN provides the best balance between accuracy and deployability, achieving an F1-Score of 0.976, an inference throughput of ≈120,000 packets per second, and a model size of only 31 KB. These findings demonstrate that TinyML-optimized neural networks are strong candidates for practical on-device intrusion detection on highly resource-constrained IoT devices.
In the early stages of research on the genetics of human morphological traits, particular attention was given to the details of the physical complexities of the face. In this field, prominent focus was placed on the characteristics of the auricle, especially the types of the earlobe (lobulus auriculae). This paper presents the first data on the previously undescribed possibility of inheriting the ossified granules of the antihelix. Based on genealogical analysis of the presence/absence of the granule across five successive generations of a Bosnian family, evidence is provided for the autosomal recessive inheritance of this dimorphism.
Abstract Objective. This article aims to emphasize the importance of considering invasive thymoma in the differential diagnosis of mediastinal masses and highlights the critical role of timely surgical and oncological management in improving patient outcomes. Case Report. We present the case of a 70-year-old woman who presented with signs of superior vena cava syndrome, including dyspnea, facial swelling, and fatigue. Advanced imaging and intraoperative findings revealed a large anterior mediastinal mass infiltrating the left brachiocephalic vein and superior vena cava, extending into both the right atrium and right ventricle. Surgical intervention was performed, and histopathological analysis confirmed B2 thymoma with a high Ki-67 proliferation index. Despite surgical intervention, the patient’s condition deteriorated, and she ultimately succumbed to the disease. Conclusion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported Bosnian case of B2 thymoma invading the brachiocephalic vein and superior vena cava and infiltrating both the right atrium and ventricle, causing superior vena cava syndrome. Despite their rarity, thymomas should always be considered in patients presenting with an enlarged mediastinum.
Contemporary linguistic research has increasingly focused on the administrative functional style, its substyles, nature and peculiarities, shortcomings and flaws, as well as influences on other styles. Numerous works dealing with this topic from different aspects have been published. Here, we are referring primarily to works from Croatian and Serbian studies, and in order to point out the importance of dealing with this style in Bosnian studies as well and to encourage the develop ment of Bosnian research in this direction, we dedicate this work to an important characteristic of the administrative style – administrative expressions. Adminis trative expressions – lexemes, constructions and phrases – are typical features of the administrative style and are used in its genres. In order to determine adminis trative expressions in the Bosnian language and confirm their status, it is first nec essary to gain insight into the lexicographical manuals of the Bosnian language in order to understand the relationship of these normative manuals to the lexemes and expressions that are recognized as units characteristic of the administrative style of the Bosnian language, which is also the main goal of this work. Since Rječnik bosanskoga jezika [The Bosnian Language Dictionary] (Halilović – Palić – Šehović, 2010) also has a normative assessment of the included units, we deem appropriate to begin this type of analysis with the content of this dictionary, while the other Bosnain language dictionaries, namely, Rječnik bosanskog jezika (Čedić et al., 2007) and the multi-volume Rječnik bosanskog jezika (Jahić, 2010–2024) served for additional comparison and consultation.
Vehicular communication via V2X networks significantly improves road safety, but is vulnerable to data manipulation, which can lead to serious incidents. To address this threat, misbehavior detection systems (MBDs) have been developed to detect such misbehavior. In order to enhance the detection of data manipulation, trust assessment in V2X networks has recently gained increasing attention. Trust assessment takes into account the output of various security mechanisms such as MBDs or Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) to detect misbehavior. One particular challenge in trust assessment is the appropriate quantification of the output of these security mechanisms into trust opinions. In this paper, we propose a trust quantification methodology that transforms the output of an MBD into a subjective logic opinion. Furthermore, we apply a hyperparameter optimization approach to determine the optimal parameter set for an MBD. Our evaluation using three MBD variants shows that the optimization approach significantly increased the detectionperformance of all MBDs. The MBD variant that used the optimization approach and our proposed trust quantification methodology achieved the best performance, increasing the F1 score by over 13 % compared to other state-of-the-art MBD variants analyzed in this work.
USB4 Version 2.0 is the first generation to adopt Pulse Amplitude Modulation-3 (PAM-3) signaling while increasing the data rate to 40 Gb/s, thus needing PAM-3 transceivers that can satisfy its various requirements. This paper presents the architectural choices and trade-offs in high-speed PAM-3 wireline transmitters. A quarter-rate clocking architecture is adopted to investigate the impact of different driver and Feed-Forward Equalizer (FFE) implementations on complexity, area, and power consumption across varying data rates. Three transmitter architectures are designed and simulated in 22 nm CMOS technology, following the standard as a guideline. Analog and digital FFE implementations are combined with voltage-mode, conventional and DAC driver implementations. All three designs employ a 4-tap FFE as required by the specification. Among them, the DAC-based design achieves the highest energy efficiency and smallest area, whereas the all-analog solution ranks second. The analog driver with digital FFE results in the most power and area consumption.
Geodetic survey is a comprehensive process for collecting both graphical and descriptive data related to real estate, primarily for the purpose of establishing cadastral records and land registration. The graphical data serve as the fundamental basis for creating various small-scale cartographic representations. Geodetic surveys in Bosnia and Herzegovina have been conducted twice. The first comprehensive systematic survey was carried out by the administration of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, covering the entire territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina at that time. The second comprehensive survey began after the end of World War II and lasted several decades, though not all of Bosnia and Herzegovina's territory was surveyed during this period. The result of the geodetic survey of Bosnia and Herzegovina during the rule of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy was the creation of cadastral maps that did not include representations of relief features. Cadastral plans were produced at scales of 1:6250, 1:3125, 1:1562.5, and 1:781.25. The scale of the cadastral plan depended on the built-up density of the surveyed territory. The real estate data collected during this survey are referred to in Bosnian-Herzegovinian geodetic terminology by a unique name – the “old survey”. Conversely, the geodetic surveys conducted during socialist Bosnia and Herzegovina included, among other features, representations of the territory on cadastral plans created at scales ranging from 1:5000 to 1:500. These plans incorporated a separate layer depicting terrain elevation, which allowed for the creation of topographic-cadastral plans by overlaying these elevation layers onto cadastral maps. In Bosnian geodetic terminology, the data collected during this period are referred to as the “new survey”. Cadastral plans from both the old and new surveys are collectively referred to as large-scale map representations. From these representations, a multitude of small-scale map representations can be generated. Despite the availability of these data, it's notable that throughout the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the graphical depiction of the region has been portrayed on numerous small-scale cartographic representations created across various historical periods. After the completion of the geodetic survey of the settlement of Prusac, situated within the present-day municipality of Donji Vakuf, by the administration of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, a cadastral register and land register were established. The cadastral record from the land cadastre of the old survey served as the official cadastral record for several decades. However, the destruction of this register during the hostilities of the Second World War left the area of Prusac without a cadastral register. To maintain a record of real estate ownership, an evidentiary land cadastre was instituted for the Prusac area, utilizing archival lithographic copies of cadastral plans from the old survey as graphical bases. In the 1970s, an aerial photogrammetric survey of the municipality of Donji Vakuf, including the area of the settlement of Prusac, was carried out. Utilizing this data, the cadastral register of the new survey was established. Following the establishment of the cadastral register of the new survey, the use of the cadastral register from the evidentiary cadastre of the settlement of Prusac was discontinued. Evidentiary cadastre was established partially on the basis of the data of the old survey. It has been repealed, resulting in the discontinuation of the evidentiary cadastral register's use as an official cadastral record. However, to maintain the land register, “cadastral plans” from the evidentiary land cadastre were occasionally employed. After the establishment of the cadastral register of the new survey, the cadastral plans from this survey became the official graphic base for maintaining the cadastral register. Prusac, a city with a history spanning through several centuries, held significant importance following the Ottoman Empire's occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. During the Ottoman rule, Prusac emerged as a prominent location, notably recognized for the religious and cultural event known as Ajvatovica. Various localities within Prusac and its environs hold associations with this event. The focus of this paper is to examine the depiction of the Ajvatovica locality on both analog cadastral plans from the old and new surveys. Additionally, the research delves into locating and presenting Prusac on small-scale cartographic representations dating back to the Ottoman Empire era.
This paper explores both theoretical and practical dimensions of peacebuilding in post-conflict societies, with a specific focus on Bosnia and Herzegovina and the role of the High Representative, established by Annex 10 of the General Framework Agreement for Peace (Dayton Peace Agreement). By analysing the functioning of the Office of the High Representative (OHR), the study investigates the scope and limitations of the liberal institutionalist approach to peacebuilding, which dominated international intervention strategies in Bosnia and Herzegovina after 1995. The paper argues that classical institutional models failed to adequately respond to the fragmented political landscape and deep ethno-political divisions in Bosnia and Herzegovina, leading to a gradual transformation of the High Representative’s mandate from a coordinating body to a politically active institution with significant executive powers. The aim of this study is to examine the institutional evolution of the OHR and assess its contribution to state-building and peace preservation in Bosnia and Herzegovina, while also critically engaging with broader debates on the effectiveness of international peacebuilding in complex post-conflict environments. The research employs a qualitative methodology, including the analysis of primary documents (Annex 10, decisions of the OHR, legal acts), secondary sources (academic literature, international reports), and a case study approach based on a chronological review of the actions taken by High Representatives from 1995 to 2021. The analysis focuses on three core areas where the intervention of the High Representative had a decisive impact: (1) the imposition of binding decisions and laws in cases where domestic political actors failed to reach consensus; (2) judicial reforms and the annulment of rulings by domestic courts that were seen as contrary to the peace agreement; and (3) the dismissal of political officials deemed to be violating the Dayton Agreement or undermining the constitutional order. Findings indicate that this form of international tutelage contributed to short-term stabilization and institutional functionality but also raised concerns over democratic legitimacy and the limited ownership of domestic actors in the reform process. The theoretical framework links traditional liberal peacebuilding approaches with more recent critiques that emphasize the need for deeper local participation, long-term capacity-building, and context-sensitive governance. In this regard, the Bosnia and Herzegovina case illustrates the ambivalence of international interventions—balancing between ensuring stability and respecting sovereignty, and between delivering quick institutional fixes and fostering sustainable domestic governance. Scholarly and political critiques of the OHR’s role vary widely—from accusations of autocratic governance to acknowledgments of its necessity—thus exposing the ongoing tension between efficiency and legitimacy in international administration. The paper concludes that while the institution of the High Representative has played a critical role in maintaining peace and facilitating institutional development in Bosnia and Herzegovina, long-term sustainability requires a shift from external supervision to internal political consensus. The contribution of this research lies in its systematic analysis of the institutional trajectory of the OHR and its theoretical interpretation within broader debates on post-conflict international governance. The findings offer valuable insights for future peacebuilding missions in similarly complex environments.
