Full text" service to friends " - a juxtaposition of two words which make a remarkable expression. Unknownin legal language, this expression signifies something done freely in the service of a friend. French civil law does not directly recognize friendship, but acknowledges it through the system of " services to friends ". If friendship has an important place in law as applied to individual rights, incapacities and liberalities, if friendship still has a privilege place in law concerning obligations, it only has a restricted place in law has applied to property because of the impersonnality of this particular branch of french civil law. French civil law is not all hostile to the concept of friendship as long as that concept does not interfere with it. In other words, friendship should remain a personal inclination- calm and moderate. Moreover, friendship, in the eyes of french civil law, should be something permanent and not subject to change

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The primary focus of this study is the civil service system as an organization and the extent to which it is institutionalized within a specific society. Within the ambit of organizational science the emphasis is on the concept of institutionalization, more specifically the institutionalization of the civil service system. Several aspects pertain to the field of Public Administration; these include the study of public organization structures and processes, the formulation and execution of public policy and the general administration and management of the public organization. Civil service systems form an integral part of public administration. The civil service is viewed as the focal point in this study as it represents a collective organization that incorporates the different public organizations within the system. This study focuses on four concepts identified by Bekke, Perry, & Toonen (1996) in their book Civil Service Systems - In Comparative Perspective. These concepts act as indicators of institutionalization within civil service organizations. The concepts are briefly explained as: boundedness (the influence of the boundaries between civil service system and society), exchange (the interaction that occurs externally between the civil service and society, and internally within the system), routinization (the extent to which the organizations within the system are rule and routine-bound) and connectedness (the extent to which the different components of the system are connected). Each of the indicators is developed within a theoretical framework that supports scientific operationilization. With operationilization each of the indicators are explored according to a set of questions. The answers to the questionnaires developed for a specific indicator represents the extent to which the civil service is institutionalized. The information supplied by all the different questionnaires provide for the creation of a profile that indicates to the level of institutionalization of the civil service system. This information can be utilized within a comparative analysis of civil service systems. These questionnaires and the information they provide can also be utilized in the identification of key concepts, they can improve understanding concerning relationships among concepts and the underlying logic or dynamic of different organizational relations within civil service organizations.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die primêre fokus van hierdie studie is die staatsdiensstelsel as 'n organisasie en die mate waartoe dit geinstitusionaliseerd is binne 'n bepaalde samelewing. Die doel van die studie behels die ontwikkeling van 'n navorsingsinstrument wat gebruik kan word binne 'n vergelykende studie aangaande die institusionalisering van staatsdienssteiseis. Verskeie akademiese dissiplines dra by tot die aard van vergelykende studies. Die primêre fokus van hierdie studie omvat twee van hierdie dissiplines, naamlik Publieke Administrasie en Organisasiekunde Wetenskap. Verskeie aspekte hou verband met Publieke Administrasie as "n studieveld, insluitend die bestudering van openbare organisasiestrukture en prosesse, die formulering en die uitvoering van openbare beleid asook die algemene administrasie en bestuur van "n openbare instelling. Staatsdiensstelsels vorm 'n integrale deel van publieke administrasie. Hierdie studie fokus hoofsaaklik op die staatsdiens as "n kollektiewe organisasie wat die verskillende openbare instellings inkorporeer en verteenwoordig. Binne die strekking van die organisasiewetenskap is die klem op die konsep institusionalisering en meer spesifiek die institusionalisering van die staatsdiens. Die klem val veralop die vier konsepte wat deur Bekke, Perry & Toonen (1996) in hulle boek Civil Service Systems - In Comparative Perspective geidentifiseer is. Hierdie konsepte word gebruik as indikatore om die mate van institusionalisering van die staatsdiens aan te dui. Die konsepte kan kortliks beskryf word as begrensing (die invloed van instellingsgrense of afbakenings tussen die staatsdienssisteem en die samelewing), uitruiling (die interaksie wat plaasvind tussen die staatsdiens en die samelewing asook die interaksie binne die staatsdiens), roetineering (die mate waartoe instellings binne die staatsdiens verbonde is tot reëls en roetine) en verbondenheid (die mate waartoe die verskillende komponente van die stelsel aan mekaar verbind is). Elkeen van hierdie komponente word omskryf deur middel van "n teoretiese raamwerk wat die wetenskaplike operasionalisering van elke komponent ondersteun. Met die operasionalisasie word die verskillende konsepte toegepas binne "n bepaalde vraelys. Die antwoorde op die vrae bied 'n aanduiding van die mate waartoe die instelling geinstitusionaliseerd is. Die inligting wat verskaf word deur die verskillende vraelyste gee aanleiding tot die samestelling van 'n profiel wat die vlak van institusionalisering binne "n bepaalde staatdiensstelsel aandui. Sulke profiele kan gebruik word binne 'n vergelykende studie van verskillende staatsdienssteiseis. Die vraelys inligting kan ook gebruik word vir die identifikasie van sleutel konstepte binne staatsdienssteiseis, asook die verklaring van bepaalde verhoudings en onderliggende logika of dinamika tussen die verskillende instellings binne die staatsdiens.

Full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaves 109-110).
Many transit agencies run both limited-stop and local service along some of their heavy ridership corridors. The primary benefit of limited-stop bus service is higher speed which results in reduced running time and thus reduced travel time for passengers. This reduced travel time can improve the service quality for existing passengers and can increase ridership on the route and thus both passengers and the agency can benefit from limited- stop service. However, this strategy also results in increased access time, and in increased wait time for some passengers. This thesis develops a model to evaluate limited stop bus service and then applies the model to develop general design guidelines for limited-stop service. The model created evaluates a specific service configuration including both the local and limited-stop headways and stops. The model calculates travel times, and assigns existing demand to limited and local stops and to limited and local routes, based on minimum passenger (weighted) travel time. This assignment is applied at the origin-destination pair level. The model then calculates several measures of effectiveness, which are used to compare different configurations, including market share (local preferred, limited preferred, and choice passengers), stop and route assignment (number of passengers selecting the limited service stops and limited-stop service), net change in passenger travel time (weighted and un-weighted), and finally productivity (passengers per trip and per vehicle hour for the local and limited-stop service). The model was used to analyze two CTA cases: Western Avenue local Route 49 and limited-stop Route X49, and the Madison Avenue Route 20.
(cont.) The analysis of Western Avenue and Madison Avenue involved testing alternative frequency configurations; alternate stop spacing configurations were analyzed only for Madison Avenue. The specific findings on these routes show that the existing stop spacing on Route X49 is effective, but to improve the overall effectiveness of the route the limited-stop frequency share should be increased to at least 60% of all service on the corridor. Limited-stop service on Madison Avenue was found not to be effective under any configuration due to short trip lengths and evenly distributed demand along the route. The results of the analysis were used to develop two sets of guidelines: corridor (or route) potential for limited stop service and limited-stop service design. The corridor potential guidelines suggest that high concentrations of origins and destinations and long passenger trips are both critical to the effectiveness of limited-stop service. Additional factors that affect the corridor potential for limited-stop service are the existing headway and ridership and the potential for route level running time savings. Limited-stop service design guidelines were developed for setting stop spacing and frequency share. The stop spacing on the limited-stop service should be decided by placing stops at the highest demand points and at all transfer points, and is guided by the distribution of origins and destinations, with the goal of attaining a wide enough stop spacing to achieve significant route level travel time savings. One of the major findings of this thesis is that limited-stop service is generally most effective at greater than 50% frequency share.

This thesis investigates the problem of "design for change" in the context of Web Service based information systems. It describes the current status of architecting Web Services, an implementation of the Service Oriented Architecture. It also discusses the availability and support for higher level specifications, such as security, that leverage the baseline standards like SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol), WSDL (Web Service Description Language), and UDDI (Universal Discovery, Description and Integration). This thesis examines versioning as an additional specification. It discusses the Web Service enabled programming environment by addressing the various causes of change. Two levels of versioning are identified to deal with this problem--Schema level and Interface level versioning. For Schema level versioning, the extensibility models and their versioning support are discussed. Other techniques of using distinct namespaces and custom versioning tags are presented by means of samples. The second level of versioning, the Interface Level Versioning, discusses implementation of versioning logic using the current standards of WSDL 1.1. In addition, the ongoing recommendations and efforts in this field are stated.
