Abstract: Counterfeit money has always existed an issue that has caused many problems in the market. Technological growth development has made it possible to create extra counterfeit items which are distributed in the mitigation market the global economy. Bangui existing banking equipment and so on trading sites to check the authenticity of funds. But the average person does not do that have access to such systems and that is why they are needed in order for the software to receive counterfeit money, which can be used by ordinary people. This the proposed system uses image processing to find out if the money is real or fake. System built uses the Python system completely language. It contains similar steps grayscale modification, edge detection, separation, etc. made using appropriate methods.

The so-called “singularity” postulates that artificial intelligence technology (AI) will soon outdistance human intelligence and commandeer (Terminator-like) planetary authority from humanity. It may be stipulated that this science fiction scenario is already becoming a science-reality. However, an alternative to the threatening brain-based technological singularity is not being considered. The potential for creating a positive non-dual reality with “coherent heart entrainment” is the desirable alternative, and this alternative “heart-based coherency” can begin with healing the media-sphere. The technological singularity—perhaps the salient issue facing “healing” of the global media-sphere—is a hypothetical point in time (very soon) at which technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization.

At a time when the rate of technological growth worldwide is accelerating in its various forms (internet, IoT, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, digital transformation, blockchain, and big data), our institutions and administrative units are experiencing a complex struggle; It is not able to leave its traditional frameworks for a long time, nor is it able to catch up with the advanced technology every day, but perhaps every hour or minute. This dialectic posed an explicit challenge to the state's institutions, and placed it in the eye of the event. The Digital Transformation project will move “institutions from the traditional stage of interaction between citizens and management to a more modern, transparent, and more in line with technological progress in our world today, in which technology is the key to more achievements at a lower cost (make more for less). The research includes four sections. In the first topic, the researcher explains the different concepts of digital transformation, which no matter how many, they have one content, and also reviews the rules of change required for the digital transformation process, as well as a statement of the positive effects and possibilities offered by this transformation to the national economy. In the second topic, the researcher shows the relationship between the digital economy and both development and sustainable development, and the goals of sustainable development 2030. In the third topic, the researcher deals with the future trends of digital transformation and the foundations of the relevant national strategy, and reviews the most important risks that this transformation poses to the security and sovereignty of countries. In the fourth topic, the researcher provides the conclusions and recommendations that the most important of them are: monitoring the necessary investments and funds in the general budget; In order to implement the digital economy strategy and its requirements, and in conclusion, the relevant sources were mentioned.

Background: In the third millennium, which is called the information era, despite the technological growth and industrialization, lack of hopefulness is seen in the general population, especially among the youth. Therefore, hope is one of the critical issues that should be promoted among the youth. Objectives: This study was aimed at evaluating a hopefulness questionnaire among the youth. Methods: This cross-sectional study with an exploratory approach was carried out among the Iranian youth population in 2020. All students of Shahed University in Tehran (estimated as 5000 people) were considered the study population, 600 of whom were selected as the study sample by the simple random sampling method. For data collection, a researcher-made questionnaire was utilized. Data analysis was performed by SPSS v. 21 and LISREL v. 8.80. Alpha Cronbach coefficient was used to investigate the reliability of the questionnaire. Results: The results showed the adequate reliability of the hopefulness questionnaire. Also, the findings showed that three latent variables in the questionnaire had significantly larger values than the other factors. Therefore, with three latent factors, the hopefulness questionnaire was significantly saturated. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for the 33 items of the questionnaire was 0.80. Conclusions: It was found that the questionnaire constructs are useful in predicting hopefulness intention. The scale consisted of three factors that did not completely replicate the factors found in previous studies. The use of this tool is recommended for all age groups.

With the significant technological growth that affected autonomous vehicles in the last decade, several consequences occurred as: human factor exclusion, entry and exit manoeuvres precision from roundabouts, and headway reduction. In this paper, it was carried out a microsimulation approach study that aims to evaluate benefits in terms of safety obtained with flower roundabouts in a scenario where traffic is characterized by conventional vehicles “CVs” and Connected Autonomous Vehicles “CAVs”. This study focused on the evaluation of CAVs and CVs operation with the presence of the so called “weak users” or rather, pedestrians and bikes. Then, simulated scenarios were characterized by the presence of zebra-crossings in main roads, positioned at 20 m from circulatory carriageway edges. Micro simulation choice is due to the absence of survey data collection because the presence of CAVs in ordinary traffic is still minimal. The micro simulation was carried out through VISSIM, so it was operated with a specific methodological path, consisting, in the application, of O–D matrix based on real cases, in order to achieve an assessment of potential conflicts in relation with the increase in CAVs. Simulation results showed that higher safety levels were achieved for special cases of O–D distribution and with CAVs present. Finally, considering crash absence in results related to CAVs presence, safety interventions of such roundabout types have to be thorough. There were 10 O/D matrices analysed through VISSIM considering parameters as: average tail length, maximum tail length, average speed, vehicles, and number of stops quantity. As reported in the conclusion section, O/D matrices that showed minimum conflicts and maximum dynamic performances were identified.
