Optical detection of plant stress in real-time is crucial as it enables timely interventions to mitigate potential damage. This study presents a detailed evaluation of a system that detects changes in plant metabolism in real-time by distributing optical signals across the leaf. The methodology facilitates continuous monitoring of changes in the optical properties of plant leaves through measurements of optical transmission coefficients using a 665 nm LED light signal, thereby recording the circadian rhythm over time. Given that the photosynthetic processes within the leaves are closely linked to the plant’s overall health, this system can detect stress caused by various factors and identify metabolic changes by analysing the circadian rhythm patterns of the observed plants.
For inducing metabolic changes, the plant Vriesea carinata Wawra, a verified representative of dual metabolism, was subjected to high light intensity stress. To validate the method, the collected results were compared with data obtained through chemical methods to establish a correlation between the traditional, destructive method and the non-destructive, optical method.
The findings successfully identify circadian rhythms as parameters for recognizing changes in plant metabolism, demonstrating the significance of the proposed method in researching plant physiology through the optical identification of biological processes.

The paper has the main goal to determine whether there is a statistically significant connection between early created affective relationship between parents and children and later partner relationships. The research was conducted on a sample of 136 respondents, 75 women and 61 men. The following questionnaires were used in this research: a structured questionnaire for sociodemographic and family data (gender, education, marital status, completeness of the family, family functionality, upbringing, alcoholism in the family during childhood and psychiatric diseases), a questionnaire about family affective attachment and the scale of passive dependence in partner relationships. The data were collected via social networks. The research results confirmed tre expected frequency distribution of the four patterns of affective attachment in our sample. Also, it was shown that respondents of different patterns of family affective attachment discriminate in the level of passive dependence in partner relationships. According to the data obtained through statistical processing, respondents with an occupied attachment pattern achieve the highest scores on the Questionnaire of Passive Dependence in Partner Relationships, while securely attached respondents achieve the lowest scores. Although insecurely attached subjects achieved higher scores on the mentioned questionnaire than securely attached subjects, this difference was not statistically significant, and that is why our third hypothesis was rejected.

Tourism began to grow relatively slowly throughout history, starting in the middle of the 20th century. Today, tourism as a whole has imposed itself as one of the most propulsive economic activities. For the Republic of Croatia, where tourism accounts for more than a fifth of the GDP of the national economy. The aim of this work is focused on the presentation of the potential and concept of tourism development of island tourism with an emphasis on the island of Krk, i.e., its most developed municipality of Malinska. The paper conducted an empirical investigation of local residents’ attitudes about the elements of the tourism offer in the municipality of Malinska and the impact of tourism on its development. The purpose of this research, in the interpretation of the obtained results, is to find relevant answers at the level of the tourist destination of Malinska about the attitude of the local population towards tourism, towards phenomena in the environment of importance for tourism, towards the development of the tourist destination and the assessment of the offer and quality of the tourist offer. The general results of the research led to the conclusion that the tourism of the mentioned destination has progressed, but that there is still room for progress and development of the offer in order to build a more competitive and market-recognizable tourist product.

The extent to which changes in the education system are driven by external economic and social systems and internal
factors of the education system is an open question that has yet to be answered after detailed analysis and research. Job satisfaction at school can influence the formation of positive attitudes, and cannot be excluded from the examination of individual attitudes about changes in the organization. Identification with the school represents a particularly significant form of positive attitudes of employees at the school, it has positive personal consequences in terms of better professional advancement, and therefore better performance of work. The research sample has elements of a multi-stage opportunity with elements of random selection, because a survey was conducted of teachers in the schools on Republika of Srpska, who were present at the sessions of the teaching-departmental council (n=400) at the time of the survey. The obtained data (analysis of responses on the scale of general and specific attitudes about changes and factor analysis) show that although teachers manifest a positive general attitude about changes in education, it should be noted that certain aspects of changes are latently perceived as negative. The general attitude about changes in education is statistically significantly positively related to identification with the school (r=.477, p<.001) and with job satisfaction at the school (r=.225, p<.001). Also, the results showed statistically significant differences in some special attitudes about changes in education with regard to the degree of identification with the school (perception of the outcome of changes in education χ²=16.869, df=2, p=.000 and readiness for additional education, χ²= 6.146, df=2, p=.046), while there are no such differences when it comes to being informed about changes and willingness to engage in changes. Furthermore, the results showed statistically significant differences in some special attitudes about changes in education with regard to job satisfaction at school (perception of the outcome of changes, χ²=32.081, df = 2, r=.000, awareness of changes χ²=14.259, df =2, r=.001 and readiness for additional education in order to improve one's own competencies χ²=8.621, df=2, p=.013).

individual and on changes in society as a whole. From the aspect of changes in the individual itself, it is not so much a problem to establish what it is that moves some individuals and hinders others in the process of change, as much as it is a problem find a way to use the obtained data in a practical sense: what, how and why to change.

In today’s modern shipping business environment, there is a shift from traditional to digital marketing. Social media has the most significant potential for companies to reach consumers; thus, this paper aims to discover the intensity and content of the marketing activities of shipping companies through social media. Two different types of companies, the container and multi-purpose ones, are the objects of research, primarily analyzed based on the number of followers, posts, likes, comments, and shares on social media.
The results show the highest intensity of Facebook usage for shipping companies. It was also discovered that shipping companies actively use Facebook, and this form of online representation is considered more precise regarding brand awareness and public engagement. The content analysis revealed that shipping companies have no intention of selling services using social media. Namely, there are limited network-building or customer relationship efforts, but activities in Corporate Social Responsibility activities, Employee Brand Management, and Sustainability increase.
The paper revealed that shipping companies use digital marketing toward the internal public and employees, increasing marketing and human resource management activities.
This paper opens up the possibilities of a more significant application of marketing in the shipping industry, bearing in mind the trends of digitization of maritime operational processes and supply chains.

This paper aims to highlight the importance of defining the dimensions of service quality and their impact on the satisfaction and loyalty of users of banking services in the banking sector of the Republic of Croatia. The study focuses on service quality parameters and customer satisfaction. The paper aims to examine discrepancies between expected and perceived attributes of banking services (Servqual model) on a sample of 130 respondents from the Republic of Croatia. Special objectives include examining the differences in the expression of scores on the dimensions of the expected and observed ABS scales in relation to the socio-demographic variables in the research (gender, age, professional education…etc). Based on the empirical study, it can be concluded that all service quality parameters play a vital role in customer satisfaction. The research results indicate that all five key dimensions of Servqual – tangibility, reliability, accountability, security, and empathy, are significantly and positively related to the overall Servqual perceived by users.

The word rehabilitation is of Latin origin (sanacio) and means treatment, from the point of view of the economy of the company, rehabilitation means economic and technical-organizational measures that should contribute to the recovery of the company, in the sense of making it liquid and profitable again. A company is considered sick if, in the long run, it is unable to meet its obligations and operates at a loss. The causes of the disease can be external and internal. Financial difficulties, manifested in illiquidity and unprofitability, cause the need for rehabilitation. Initiation of remediation presupposes remediation eligibility, which exists if permanent recovery of the company is possible. Determining the suitability of rehabilitation involves examination and selection of measures, the implementation of which ensures the permanent recovery of the company, in the sense of re-establishing the financial balance and returning to the profit zone.

This paper explores the food industry business market as an example, highlighting the key role of market research in successful economic recovery. Through this example, market research becomes a fundamental framework for identifying the changes that a company needs to implement in its operations in order to become more competitive. The example will show the market research of companies from the food industry. There is no successful economic rehabilitation without market research. This example can serve as a framework for market research, which provides answers to the question of what the company needs to change in its business in order to be more successful than the competition. The research results have significant implications for managers, experts and political decision-makers, providing them with information necessary for effective management of financial crises and ensuring the stability of companies, as well as a faster understanding of the competitive business environment.

The laws in Bosnia and Herzegovina that partially regulate the subject areas are outdated, long since overcome and almost completely non-functional, which effectively prevents the introduction of new technologies, which are becoming more and more convergent day by day with the development of digital services that are based on various types of electronic communication infrastructure. This type of legislation in Bosnia and Herzegovina discourages investors from investing in the development of communication infrastructure, which ultimately leads to limited service or lowquality service for the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina. High-quality and modern regulation of the field of electronic communications is achieved first of all so that all legislative levels in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in accordance with their constitutional competences, pass complex and detailed laws that will regulate the field of electronic communications, following the example of the legislative achievements of the European Union in this areas. Bearing in mind the past experiences in Bosnia and Herzegovina, probably a more functional way is for all legislative levels in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in accordance with their constitutional competences, to pass laws that will regulate the field of electronic communications in such a way as to prescribe the basic principles and basic frameworks of regulation this area, again following the example of the legislative achievements of the European Union in this area.

This paper presents the binary symmetric channel as a common model of the communication channel used in theory of coding and theory of information. Since there is no noise in the channel, the data transmission delay is very small, which is why data can be transmitted quickly and in real time, without many errors, which greatly determines its practical application. Therefore, the theoretical basis of the functioning of the channel itself and its practical advantages will be presented in the text. The concept of binary coding will also be explained with the use of block codes that create the possibility of correcting eventual errors, as well as the application of a binary symmetric channel in improving signal interference when using a wireless network.

Understanding elliptic curves contributed to solving mathematical problems in number theory that had been unsolved for centuries. Elliptic curves were also used in solving one of the millennial problems, which is Fermat's last theorem. They are also connected with many hypotheses and problems in mathematics that have yet to be solved. Elliptic curves defined over finite fields are widely used in public key cryptography, since they have proven to be groups that have the best properties for implementing the Diffie-Hellman protocol. This article provides an overview of the theoretical assumptions that are necessary for the development of cryptographic algorithms based on elliptic curve cryptography, which includes defining elliptic curves, defining the properties of arithmetic operations on elliptic curves used in cryptography with reference to curves defined over finite fields.
