Abstract:
Since 2000, Morocco has launched important institutional and economic reforms based on strategies to correct market failures in important sectors of the economy. These strategies have included tax exemptions and other financial incentives, facilitating access to land and simplifying administrative procedures, and launching major public infrastructure projects, all of which have combined to create a new investment dynamic in strategic sectors such as agriculture, industry, and energy. These efforts have affected many sectors: the Azur Vision 2020 plan for tourism, the Green Morocco Plan for agriculture, the Halieutis 2020 Plan for fishing, Maroc Plus Export for export, the Emergence Plan (2005) for industry followed by the National Pact for Industrial Emergence, 2009-2015 and the new Industrial Acceleration Plan, 2014-2020. For example, to support the new Industrial Acceleration Plan, the government has provided a grant, a financial support of about 2% of GDP over 6 years. The government has also offered ad hoc support to attract foreign investors in large private projects likely to generate significant positive externalities. One example is the project to set up a Renault Company plant in Tangiers, which aims to produce and export 400,000 cars per year (World Bank, 2017).This note highlights the industrial sectors that can offer the best potential for growth, attract private investors and contribute to the creation of decent jobs. It will also identify ways to accelerate investment in Morocco. These industrial investments may include purely private investments or those made with the support of international financial institutions. The note analyzes investment and sectoral integration opportunities using the input model (outputs and employment elasticity indicators), the evaluation of the industrial acceleration plan, and sets out the measures taken by the CVE to promote VSEs. Only one classic sector is selected is highlighted for their investment potential and their commitment to reform in the sectors. It is the food industry.The note follows the diagram below:1) An introduction to the economic, political and social frameworks, including key indicators 2) A sector analysis to identify one to three sectors that are likely to be the subject of accelerated investment and in which reforms will have a particularly high chance of improving the business and investment climate and having an impact on development. 3) A mapping of the most relevant initiatives, technical assistance, grants and loans, and investments by donors and other stakeholders, such as development finance institutions. In the selected sector(s).4) An analysis of the existing reform agenda in the respective sector(s) and the identification of areas where there is a high likelihood of effective cooperation to support the implementation of these reforms.

Abstract:
In this paper we describe how fuzzy reasoning can assist an automated program understanding/fault localization tool with program understanding tasks. We are developing such a tool called BUG-DOCTOR, which is based on a blackboard framework. A fuzzy reasoner is proposed as a component for one of its knowledge sources, the Plan Processor. The Plan Processor retrieves a set of program plans from a plan library using indices called signatures. These plans are candidates for matching against the code we are trying to understand. The fuzzy reasoner will support the Plan Processor with the task of ranking the retrieved plans in order of similarity to the target code. The most highly ranked plan can then be used for the complex plan/code matching required for automated program understanding. Experiments with a fuzzy reasoning prototype are promising, and we believe that this approach to plan processing may eliminate the need for exhaustive plan library searches. The success of the fuzzy reasoning approach could lead to automated program understanders that scale up for use on large software systems from a variety of problem domains.

Abstract:
Modern data processing systems require optimization at massive scale, and using machine learning to optimize these systems (ML-for-systems) has shown promising results. Unfortunately, ML-for-systems is subject to over generalizations that do not capture the large variety of workload patterns, and tend to augment the performance of certain subsets in the workload while regressing performance for others. In this paper, we introduce a performance safeguard system, called PerfGuard , that designs pre-production experiments for deploying ML-for-systems. Instead of searching the entire space of query plans (a well-known, intractable problem), we focus on query plan deltas (a significantly smaller space). PerfGuard formalizes these differences, and correlates plan deltas to important feedback signals, like execution cost. We describe the deep learning architecture and the end-to-end pipeline in PerfGuard that could be used with general relational databases. We show that this architecture improves on baseline models, and that our pipeline identifies key query plan components as major contributors to plan disparity. Offline experimentation shows PerfGuard as a promising approach, with many opportunities for future improvement.

Abstract:
In various networks, anomaly may happen due to network breakdown, intrusion detection, and end-to-end traffic changes. To detect these anomalies is important in diagnosis, fault report, capacity plan and so on. However, it?s challenging to detect these anomalies with high accuracy rate and time efficiency. Existing works are mainly classified into two streams, anomaly detection on link traffic and on global traffic. In this paper we discuss various anomaly detection methods on both types of traffic and compare their performance.

Abstract:
The reconfiguration debate has dominated the NHS over the summer with Conservative leader David Cameron promising a 'bare knuckle fight' over district general hospitals under threat from service closure. With the focus clearly on the need for service change, it is timely for the College to restate its policy on the provision of trauma care. We are calling for a critical examination of those centres currently providing trauma care and a national plan for the identification of major specialist trauma centres to provide the best care to injured patients.

Abstract:
Automated conceptual design often shows significant promise for generating conceptual solutions automatically through searching and synthesizing known principle solutions for a desired function. However, existing automated conceptual design systems lack an efficient heuristic search strategy and a knowledge-based planning mechanism, which lead to less chance of finding promising principle solutions within a limited time. This article proposes a novel semi-heuristic planning approach for automated conceptual design which comprises two successive steps, i.e. DESIGN PLAN and DESIGN COMBINATION. During the stage of DESIGN PLAN, the planning-graph technique is employed to extract a design plan from a planning graph, which is composed of various principle solution clusters. Under the guidance of the design plan, in the second stage, DESIGN COMBINATION combines compatible principle solutions from the principle solution clusters in the design plan until finding promising conceptual solutions. A prototype system and design case illustrate that the proposed semi-heuristic planning approach can successfully achieve an automated conceptual design synthesis.

Abstract:
Canadian drug plan pricing of generic drugs is in a state of flux, with different plans adopting different approaches. The manner in which public plans pay for generic drugs can affect five policy goals: low generic drug prices, security of the drug supply, a reliance on reimbursement rules (thereby avoiding the need for drug plan managers to exercise discretion over reimbursement levels), low administrative burden and finally, the provision of adequate incentives for generics to enter the market. We review five pricing mechanisms: maximum prices, tiered pricing, tendering, benchmarking and pharmacy competition. We examine international evidence on the success of the first three of these. We conclude with an assessment of promising reimbursement approaches.

Abstract:
Abstract Metabolic rewiring in cancer cells supports many aspects of tumor growth. Understanding the mechanisms that result in metabolic rewiring, such as altered enzyme expression, is key to identifying therapeutic vulnerabilities that selectively target cancer cells. In this issue of Cancer Research, Marczyk and colleagues analyze matched tumor-normal enzyme expression across 14 different cancer types and report that cancer cells exhibit a general loss of isozyme diversity (LID) relative to corresponding normal tissue. The authors hypothesized that the presence of a cancer dominant isozyme may reduce metabolic plasticity and uniquely sensitize cancer cells to isozyme-specific inhibitors. Several LID targets were identified, including acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), which the authors validated using a clinically available inhibitor of ACC1/2. This study is the first to systematically evaluate isozymes affected by LID, which represents a promising strategy to target the unique metabolic demands of cancer.

Abstract:
The 100th anniversary of the GOELRO Plan has spurred a growing interest in the topic and has become an information occasion for many publications of both scientific and popularization nature.The GOELRO Plan’s study historiography has a vast space, which began to emerge in parallel with the implementation of the plan itself. The first publications date back to the 1920s and 1930s. Their authors were direct participants who considered the electrification matters in historical and practical aspects. At that time, a lot of publications of markedly propagandistic nature were issued.In the late 1940s and 1950s, the GOELRO Plan attracted the attention of professional researchers. In the period from the second half of the 1950s to 1980s, generalizing papers of historians were prepared, in which the GOELRO Plan began to be considered not only based on an analysis of technical and economic characteristics, but also from the standpoint of political and social significance, with placing focus on the "party leadership" and Lenin's role in its development.In the modern Russian historiography, an interest in the GOELRO Plan history has been retained, especially in regard of aspects that were inaccessible to Soviet researchers.In the historiography of the last decade, a great deal of attention is paid to the human factor in the development and implementation of the GOELRO Plan in terms of "historical and anthropological turn in humanitarian thought". One of the debating matters is the GOELRO Plan "authorship", in which several conceptual approaches have emerged, and no unambiguous opinion has been formed. In our opinion, the research line related to the participation of the Russian engineering community members in the development and further implementation of the GOELRO Plan that is based on a personal-biographical approach should be considered among the promising ones.The purpose of the article is to analyze the role of Robert Eduardovich Klasson (1868-1926) in the development and implementation of plans for electrification of pre-revolutionary and post-revolutionary Russia, including the GOELRO Plan.Klasson was one of the first electrical engineers in Russia. He initiated and implemented the construction of the Russia's first district power plant "Elektroperedacha". This plant operated on peat, which was a local cheap fuel, and an overhead power line was for the first time laid from this plan, which was capable of transmitting electricity over a distance of more than 70 kilometers. Klasson's engineering activity can be viewed as a historical projection of the personal and professional factors in the fateful events of the Russian history. Klasson’s life is an example of civic responsibility to his people and the importance of the role of an engineer in the scientific and technical development of Russia.

Abstract:
Due to the separation of project management systems and workflow management systems, there is a gap between project plans and process support used to implement them. Often, managers could not see what was going on in their businesses until it was too late to react. In this paper, a cooperative hypermedia approach and an integration framework are developed to provide an integrated support for project planning, workflow management, information management and teamwork. The cooperative hypermedia-based process model has many desirable computational properties. The cooperative hypermedia tools built on this model can support distributed project teams to create, analyze, execute, monitor and adapt a project plan cooperatively. Case studies and user experiences of the cooperative hypermedia system demonstrate that the cooperative hypermedia approach can facilitate team members to identify emerging problems, to discuss and adapt the plan cooperatively. It is a promising approach to bridge the gap between project management and workflow management systems so as to support flexible business processes of real-time project teams.

Abstract:
В этой статье представлены материалы, полученные при морфометрическом исследовании ценнейшего лекарственного растения рода Ферула (Ferula L.) семейства зонтичных (Apiaceae Lindl.). Ferula L. является одним из ценных лекарственных растений для сохранения генетического фонда других видов флоры в будущем от уничтожения. Вонючая ферула была известна с давних времен во многих странах как приправа и острая добавка, а также и в народной медицине. Несмотря на специфический химический состав, который еще не был зарегистрирован официально в государственной фармакопее Республики Казахстан, мы планируем изучить фитохимический состав растений Ferula L., выращиваемых в нашей стране. Тем не менее, изучение биоморформетрической специфики для определения размещения биологически активных веществ является актуальной проблемой. На основании исследования выяснилось, что вонючая ферула образует два вида однолетних отростка: розеточные и не розеточные. Выявлено, что после цветения полностью уничтожается жизнеспособность этого растения. Для сохранения популяции дикорастущего лекарственно-травянистого растения, образующего ценоз, необходимо защитить территории, где распространена вонючая ферула, не допуская ее сбора во время цветения. В настоящее время применение ферулы в качестве лекарственного растения будущего доказывается тем, что в ее корнях и семенах содержатся биологически активные вещества в высоких концентрациях. Корни и семена ферулы являются настоящим источником сырья, а целенаправленное использование семян с целью сохранения их естественного прироста свидетельствует о высокой всхожести семян. This article presents the materials obtained during the morphometric study of the most valuable medical plant of the genus Ferula (Ferula L.) - the Umbelliferae (Apiaceae Lindl.). Ferula L. is one of the most valuable medicinal plants for the preservation of the genetic pool of other florae species in the future from destruction. Smelly ferula has been known for centuries in many countries as a condiment and which gives palatable taste to the meal, as well as in ethno science since ancient times. Despite the specific chemical composition, which has not yet been officially registered in the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan, we plan to study the physiochemical composition of Ferula L growing in our country. Nevertheless, the study of biomorphometric specificity with the aim to determine the placement of biological active substances is an urgent problem. Based on the study, it turned out that the smelly ferula forms two types of annual appendages. It was found that after flowering, the viability of this plant will be completely destroyed. To preserve the population of a wild medical herb that forms a cenosis, it is necessary to protect the areas where the smelly ferula is common, preventing its collection during flowering. Nowadays, the use of ferula as a medicinal plant of the future proves that its roots and seeds contain biologically active substances in high concentrations. Ferula roots and seeds are real sources of raw materials, and the purposeful use of seeds concerning that preserving of their natural growth indicates high seed germination.

Abstract:
The State of Nebraska Co-Lead agencies, who are responsible for developing statewide early intervention policies, rolled out professional development for two evidence-based strategies across several pilot sites. Implications of these strategies for child/family assessment, Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) development, and Early Intervention service delivery were examined utilizing family (n=30) and professional interviews (n=50), and analyses of IFSPs (n=30). The results of this mixed method study indicate widespread strategy implementation with fidelity fosters early working relationships with families and enables teams to generate, using family members’ own words, a robust group of high-quality child and family IFSP outcomes. Family engagement in planning services such as identifying service providers and setting the frequency and length of home visits was limited. In addition, further professional development is needed to strengthen use of routines-based interventions during home visits and promote family-professional collaboration to monitor child/family progress. Implications for systematic scale-up of evidence-based practices as a function of state policy implementation are reported.

Abstract:
The Asset Management Plan is defined and valued as the most important aspect of the strategic management (the marketing strategy, the plan of investments, the business philosophy as well as the importance of transactions and the management, etc.). It is important for the company as a whole as well as for the each independent strategic business unit to provide the answers for all the questions concerning: the production positioning, capital expenses, operational strategy, the financial projection of transactions as well as the property valuation and all this according the international practice used in the domain of the asset management. Such a plan may be considered as the basis for making decisions related with the share disposal as well as for providing premises for the re-establishment of the work control from the side of the owner. In terms of all this, it is very important to bring into the mutual accord all the activities paying attention about the effects of the single actions on the tourist policy at destination as well as on the national level and re-establish the adequate managing portfolio system having the basic functions: the strategic planning; the valuation of the effects of the single units of the property; monitoring, research and analysis of the main terms of references of the environment; partnership relations; development and quality improvement. All the above mentioned is implemented in practice at the company "Adria Resort”, Rovinj, the owner of the market promising companies in Istria, "Jadran-turist" of Rovinj and "Anita” of Vrsar, which manages the total accommodation potential consisting of more then 30.000 accommodation units, or the portfolio of twelve 2 - 4 star hotels, 7 tourist settlements and 6 motor camps, respectively.

Abstract:
Kiswani Wholesalers and Distributors (KWD) is a proposed Limited Liability Company (LLC) that will be co-owned by two partners and operated in New York State, serving four counties of Rockland, Westchester, Orange and Dutchess. The company will be dealing in medicines sold over the counter, health and beauty products, general merchandise and male enhancement drugs. These product lines offer the company a unique product mix that will enable it to penetrate and sustain a steady market base in the market for profitability. The proposed company has identified four market segments: convenience stores, supermarkets, grocery stores, gas stations and other small retail shops that will be its customers. It intends to target the first four segments of its market in the first year of operation. KWD will employ a marketing strategy that will put it ahead of its competitors and its SWOT analysis shows that it will compete favorably in the business environment into which it intends to venture.Key success factors will be the experienced ownership and management and skilled and qualified persons who will implement the success strategies of pricing, marketing and sales to deliver high outputs that will enable the firm to break even in the ninth month of operation. Upon commencement of its operations, KWD will plough back its profits for purposes of expansion, which is inevitable for every organization in all industries. Its books of account as projected are so promising that the owners will confidently acquire $ 24,000 of the total capital from a bank loan and contribute $20, 000 personally as the other $15,000 is gained from credit facilities by the suppliers in a 21-day credit term. With a small size workforce of only five personnel for the startup phase, KWD will be able to have efficient operations that will steer the firm to rapid growth and profitability.

Abstract:
As innovation scaling is arriving at its cutoff points, new methodologies have been proposed for computational effectiveness. Inexact processing is a promising method for elite execution and low power circuits as utilized in blunder lenient applications. Among surmised circuits, rough number juggling plans have drawn in huge exploration interest. In this paper, the plan of rough excess twofold (RB) multipliers is contemplated. Two inexact Booth encoders and two RB 4:2 blowers dependent on RB (full and half) adders are proposed for the RB multipliers. The inexact plan of the RB-Normal Binary (NB) converter in the RB multiplier is additionally concentrated by considering the mistake qualities of both the estimated Booth encoders and the RB blowers. Both rough and accurate ordinary incomplete item clusters are utilized in the surmised RB multipliers to meet distinctive exactness prerequisites. Mistake investigation and equipment reenactment results are given. The proposed surmised RB multipliers are contrasted and past rough Booth multipliers; the outcomes show that the estimated RB multipliers are superior to inexact NB Booth multipliers particularly when the word size is huge. Contextual investigations of blunder tough applications are likewise introduced to show the legitimacy of the proposed plans.

Abstract:
The train operation plan plays an essential role in metro systems and directly affects transportation organization efficiency and passenger service level. In metro systems, passengers have paid more attention to the travel time reliability (TTR), reflecting the reliability of metro operation management. This article proposes an analysis method of train operation plan based on TTR in the station dimension. First, an automated fare collection (AFC) data-driven framework is established to calculate the station travel time reliability (STTR) and analyze the train operation plan at different periods. The framework structure consists of four steps: AFC data preprocessing, STTR calculation and assignment, clustering algorithm design based on SOM neural network, and train operation plan analysis and optimization. Second, the proposed method is applied to the Beijing metro network as a case study. Several promising results are analyzed that allow the optimization of the existing train operation plan. Our research shows that STTR is a good supplement for the existing metro operation assignment studies, which can help analyze and optimize the train operation plan effectively. This study is also applicable to other metro networks with AFC systems.

Much water body running in urban residential subdivisions in China is not successful, and deteriorated water and bad scenery happened frequently in rainy seasons. The main purpose of this study is to recommend a feasible water scenery planning program in urban residential subdivisions construction to improve water quality. Based on the detailed analyses, the main reasons of unsuccessful water running might lie in sustainable water resource shortage, improper water scale, water body structure, and subsequent weak self-purification ability. A feasible planning program was recommended, and a case design based on this program was presented. It is concluded that rainwater is a promising sustainable water resource to maintain water body. Such general planning as water scenery layout and scale, water balance analysis are main aspects in the water body construction design. If the results obtained in this study were extendedly applied, the water scenery in residential subdivision could be improved successfully.

Lack of comprehensive land use planning in India has posed significant challenges in achieving more optimal utilisation of land resources. This has also limited the opportunities for developing land use plans that adequately reflect the rationale and objectives of planning. This calls for developing a comprehensive and holistic approach to review the compatibility of actions associated with development plans involving multiple sectors with the ground realities. This paper is an attempt to apply strategic environmental assessment (SEA) as a promising tool to identify environmental risks and deficiencies in the land use planning process in India. The paper draws on the experience of applying SEA to Gurgaon-Manesar Development Plan for 2031 and elaborates on the merits and usefulness of adopting SEA in land use planning in the Indian context.

Abstract:
In the territories of mountain-folded regions, aquifers in rock masses are associated with tectonic disturbances. To identify promising faults and their detailing for water supply or drainage of mining enterprises, methods of electrical exploration are quite effectively applied. When choosing promising areas for laying water supply wells in rock masses, good results are obtained from a combination of exploratory techniques for hydrogeomechanics and biolocation. Analysis of the orientation of faults in the field of modern tectonic stresses from the standpoint of hydrogeomechanics makes it possible to assume, with a high degree of probability, the kinematic type of tectonic disturbances. The characteristics of the tectonic stress field can be identified in the process of exploratory research. Dowsing allows you to identify the location, orientation and width of faults in the search area with minimal cost. A quantitative interpretation biolocation effects makes it possible to identify the most flooded areas of tectonic disturbances, which are very often associated with fault intersections. The effectiveness of dowsing is significantly reduced when studying the hydrogeological section vertically (in depth). Determining the thickness of integumentary formations, assessing the displacement, in depth, of the most flooded areas is not as reliable as studies performed in a generalized subhorizontal plane (in plan). Electrical exploration data reveals the structure of the fault in plan and vertically, allows you to assess the lithological composition of the rocks, determine the position of lithological contacts and the thickness of the cover formations. The results of electrical exploration make it possible to quantify the degree of water cut and permeability of the studied areas.

Abstract:
Biometric identification of the human face is a pervasive subject which deals with a wide range of disciplines such as image processing, computer vision, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence, and cognitive psychology. Extracting key face points for developing software and commercial devices of face surgery analysis is one of the most challenging fields in computer image and vision processing. Many studies have developed a variety of techniques to extract facial features from color and gray images. In recent years, using depth information has opened up new approaches to researchers in the field of image processing. Hence, in this study, a statistical method is proposed to extract key nose points from color-depth images (RGB-D) of the face front view. In this study, the Microsoft Kinect sensor is used to produce the face RGB-D images. To assess the capability of the proposed method, this algorithm is applied to 20 RGB-D face images from the database collected in the ICT lab of Sahand University of Technology and promising results are achieved for extracting key points of the face. The results of this study indicated that using the available information in two different color-depth bands could make key points of the face more easily accessible and bring better results and we can conclude that the proposed algorithm provided a promising outcome for extracting the positions of key points.

Abstract:
The analysis of urban bioethics in the article is carried out through urban practices. In turn, through such life practices there is an awareness of bioethics in general. Three main characteristics of urban bioethics are being revealed – Inclusion, Integration and Transdisciplinarity. Inclusion is a restless screenwriter of “inclusion” of citizens, where urban bioethics explores the experience of using the principles of bioethics in everyday life. Integration reveals integrative mechanisms for uniting communities to develop a strategy for the development of a city and society as a whole. Transdisciplinarity explains the mechanism of the transcendent space, combining the diversity of languages, specialties, cultures and the like. The urban bioethics plan aims at discussing civic thought in solving problems including both a bioethical nature and an urban context. Which forum is better for such discussions? We offer InplatBio - an integrative bioethics platform that has online and offline life in the city. The most promising theories for debates on bioethics are the ones that call upon citizens or officials to justify any requirements for collective action, giving reasons that may be acceptable to those who are connected by action. This concept has become known as deliberative democracy. InplatBio is an involvement of conscious citizens to work together in the community, for an ongoing, general, thoughtful and competent discussion of problems and their joint solution.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper presents an assessment method that uses weighted graphs to quantify a building’s capacity to support changes. The method is called Spatial Assessment of Generality and Adaptability (SAGA), and evaluates the generality (passive support for change) and adaptability (active support for change) of a building’s spatial configuration. We put forward that the generality and adaptability of a floor plan can be expressed in terms of graph permeability, and introduce a set of five quantitative indicators. To illustrate the method, we evaluate six representative plan layouts, and discuss how their generality and adaptability scores relate to their spatial configuration. We are developing the SAGA method for two areas of application. First, SAGA’s global graph indicators can be used to analyse and compare large sets of plan graphs, for example to map or plan adaptable capacity throughout a building or city. Second, the SAGA method can serve as a tool to inform design, allowing architects to improve the generality and adaptability of their plan layouts. While we conclude that the method has significant strengths and promising applications, the paper ends by discussing ways to make the assessment more robust and extend it beyond measuring spatial configuration.

This article describes how slum upgrading comprehensive plans and urban regularization plans are two planning tools which have been used by Brazilian municipalities to promote integrated interventions in slums and illegal settlements. Aimed at urban-environmental improvements, as well as land regularization and socio-economic community development, these plans have been, however, criticized for being too technical, time-consuming, expensive and top-down oriented, lacking sufficient participation and a strategic approach to achieve community consensus on priorities, under severe budget restrictions to face complex problems and fast changing realities. This article discusses the results of a workshop held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil aimed at developing a methodology for the Maria Tereza neighborhood plan, using Geodesign framework and geovisualization strategies to create a collaborative environment and enhance stakeholders' participation. The decision model achieved proved to be a promising support tool for more effective and inclusive neighborhood rehabilitation and land regularization planning policies.

In the International Classification of Diseases (ICD‑10), the diagnosis of chronic pain is not presented, which makes it difficult to conduct accurate epidemiological studies and prevents the development of an adequate diagnosis and multimodal therapy strategy. ICD‑11 will be the first version to include chronic pain as a diagnosis. According to the new concept, chronic pain is a real disease associated with multiple changes in the nervous, endocrine and immune systems. Developing a comprehensive treatment plan is of paramount importance and requires a multimodal plan that includes non‑drug and pharmacotherapeutic strategies for pain management. One of the promising areas of pharmacotherapy is the use of complex therapy regimens: meloxicam (Amelotex) – tolperisone (Calmirex) – B vitamins (compliments B).

Full text
Abstract:
Many planning applications must address conflicting plan objectives, such as cost, duration, and resource consumption, and decision makers want to know the possible tradeoffs. Traditionally, such problems are solved by invoking a single-objective algorithm (such as A*) on multiple, alternative preferences of the objectives to identify nondominated plans. The less-popular alternative is to delay such reasoning and directly optimize multiple plan objectives with a search algorithm like multiobjective A* (MOA*). The relative performance of these two approaches hinges upon the number of -values computed for individual search nodes. A* may revisit a node several times and compute a different -value each time. MOA* visits each node once and may compute some number of -values (each estimating the value of a different nondominated solution constructed from the node). While A* does not share -values between searches for different solutions, MOA* can sometimes find multiple solutions while computing a single -value per node. The results of extensive empirical comparison show that (i) the performance of multiple invocations of a single-objective A* versus a single invocation of MOA* is often worse in time and quality and (ii) that techniques for balancing per node cost and exploration are promising.

Abstract State employment agency policies and practices vary widely in their level of commitment to improving access to integrated employment for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). State IDD agencies are charged to seek creative approaches to policy formation, organizational change, and service provision that directly influence the development of employment opportunities. The goal of this study was to understand the promising practices and strategies being used by state intellectual and developmental disabilities agencies in order to understand what factors make these strategies successful, the lessons learned from implementation, and how the themes derived from this analysis can help to further articulate integrated employment as the preferred outcome for individuals with IDD. Semistructured, one-on-one telephone interviews with key state IDD agency personnel revealed six themes that were common across 30 state agency practices. These were (a) identifying barriers, (b) forming a coalition, (c) developing a mission and strategic plan, (d) aligning the infrastructure with vision and policies, (e) building stakeholder capacity, and (f) measuring progress and monitoring implementation. Recommendations are offered to state agency administrators to broaden perceptions about methods for expanding integrated employment options and outcomes at the systems level.

The transformation of the city within the existing boundaries of the city, but with a promising development is the main vector for improving the city in the urban planning aspect. This article examines the relevance of modern trends in the development of the city, which are the fundamental of the master plan. The master plan serves as a future reference point for the development of the city, not only in the architecture, but also in the economic and demographic factors. A comprehensive assessment allows you to select key areas for the development of the territory and propose ways to achieve the goals of the master plan. A competent approach and the right decisions will allow the territory, taking into account resources and potential, to get an impetus for development. The general characteristics of the territory are subject not only to urban planning aspects, but also to the spatial organization of the urban structure.

Full text
Abstract:
Planning as satisfiability, as implemented in, for instance, the SATPLAN tool, is a highly competitive method for finding parallel step-optimal plans. A bottleneck in this approach is to *prove the absence* of plans of a certain length. Specifically, if the optimal plan has N steps, then it is typically very costly to prove that there is no plan of length N-1. We pursue the idea of leading this proof within solution length preserving abstractions (over-approximations) of the original planning task. This is promising because the abstraction may have a much smaller state space; related methods are highly successful in model checking. In particular, we design a novel abstraction technique based on which one can, in several widely used planning benchmarks, construct abstractions that have exponentially smaller state spaces while preserving the length of an optimal plan. Surprisingly, the idea turns out to appear quite hopeless in the context of planning as satisfiability. Evaluating our idea empirically, we run experiments on almost all benchmarks of the international planning competitions up to IPC 2004, and find that even hand-made abstractions do not tend to improve the performance of SATPLAN. Exploring these findings from a theoretical point of view, we identify an interesting phenomenon that may cause this behavior. We compare various planning-graph based CNF encodings F of the original planning task with the CNF encodings F_abs of the abstracted planning task. We prove that, in many cases, the shortest resolution refutation for F_abs can never be shorter than that for F. This suggests a fundamental weakness of the approach, and motivates further investigation of the interplay between declarative transition-systems, over-approximating abstractions, and SAT encodings.

Abstract:
With prolonged use of machines, wear of parts is accompanied by a decrease in performance indicators, causing a deterioration in the quality of products. The power take-off shaft experiences significant static and dynamic loads. The high wear rate of the power take-off shaft is due to constant friction with the clutch disc, gears, and bearing inner rings. The manufacture of a new power take-off shaft requires significant costs, so the development of new technological processes for repair and restoration is urgent. A promising direction of restoration technology in the organizational plan of deepening the method of group restoration technology is the creation of unified-group equipment for surface restoration. It has been established that most of the parts of remanufactured machines are rejected due to slight wear of the working surfaces, making up no more than 1% of the initial mass of parts. As experience and practice show, on the one hand, it is technically impossible to avoid the repair of agricultural machinery, and on the other, it is economically feasible. After all, most of the worn out parts have a high residual value: during their restoration, 20-30 times less metal and materials are consumed than in the manufacture of new ones. The following problems are considered: the choice of the technological process of restoration, the choice of technological equipment, tools. Restoration of details is a technically justified, economically justified measure. This allows repair shops to reduce downtime of faulty machines, improve the quality of maintenance and repair to positively affect the reliability of the use of machines. To restore the efficiency of worn parts requires 5-8 times less technological operations compared to the manufacture of new ones [1, 2]. Restoration of parts allows you to get a considerable economic effect, as much lower consumption of metal and auxiliary materials, and the cost of the restored part is 60-80% of the cost of new ones. Therefore, to make this recovery process effective, it is necessary to introduce new processing and recovery methods, as well as to improve existing equipment. The production of a new power take-off shaft requires significant costs, and the detection of new technological processes of repair and restoration is relevant.

The present study was conducted to estimate different gene systems involved in the inheritance of important quantitative traits viz. plant height, branches/plant, fruits/plant, seeds/fruit and seed yield/plant in F1 and F2 generations following 6 parents half diallel. Diallel assumptions were fulfilled for all the characters. Wr - Vr graph and component analysis revealed the major influence of over dominance for all the traits except branches/plant in F1. The arrays scattered all along the regression line below limiting parabola in two groups, Dominance and recessive and was confirmed by standardized deviation graph. The ranking on the basis of breeding value (Yr) of the parents and per se performance was closely associated (r=0.83**). On the basis of ranking, parents 'NBC-01', 'NBC-25' and 'NBC-30' were found most promising and possessed more dominant alleles for most of the characters. Considering the gene action involved, the breeding plan was discussed.

Abstract:
The social sciences—including economics—have long called for transparency in research to counter threats to producing robust and replicable results. In this paper, we discuss the pros and cons of three of the more prominent proposed approaches: pre-analysis plans, hypothesis registries, and replications. They have been primarily discussed for experimental research, both in the field including randomized control trials and the laboratory, so we focus on these areas. A pre-analysis plan is a credibly fixed plan of how a researcher will collect and analyze data, which is submitted before a project begins. Though pre-analysis plans have been lauded in the popular press and across the social sciences, we will argue that enthusiasm for pre-analysis plans should be tempered for several reasons. Hypothesis registries are a database of all projects attempted; the goal of this promising mechanism is to alleviate the “file drawer problem,” which is that statistically significant results are more likely to be published, while other results are consigned to the researcher's “file drawer.” Finally, we evaluate the efficacy of replications. We argue that even with modest amounts of researcher bias—either replication attempts bent on proving or disproving the published work—or modest amounts of poor replication attempts—designs that are underpowered or orthogonal to the hypothesis—replications correct even the most inaccurate beliefs within three to five replications. We offer practical proposals for how to increase the incentives for researchers to carry out replications.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of determining the landscape potential (hereinafter—LP) of the territory on the example of the urban district of the resort city of Kislovodsk. The work on the identification of new promising areas for the development of recreation is presented in three stages: the identification of areas with the highest integral points of recreational potential, the identification of areas with the highest integral points of resistance to recreational loads, the total assessment of landscape potential and the calculation of the recreational capacity of natural complexes. The method of determining the recreational potential of the territory is based on the point classification of territorial units using program the Quantum GIS for several parameters of one indicator: contrast and expressiveness of the terrain (vertical and horizontal dissection of the terrain), mosaic landscape (type of vegetation cover, its seasonal dynamics and color scheme), the number of water bodies (length of the riverbed, the area of the water mirror, the number of mineral springs). The determination of the stability of natural complexes was carried out according to the following indicators: morphometry of the terrain (steepness of slopes, density of vertical dissection), intensity of exogenous processes, species composition of vegetation cover, the degree of anthropogenic variability of the landscape. According to the obtained data of the integrated assessment, the conclusion is made about the most promising territories for improvement and inclusion in the development plans of the city district. In addition, for the territories planned for use, the indicator of recreational capacity (the permissible one-time number of people) is calculated. The results of the work carried out are the justification of the relevant thematic sections in the territorial planning documents, in particular, the general plan of the city district and the master plan for the development of the tourist territory.
