Rain Water Harvesting Technology on Income and Employment

für 35.91€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This study assesses the impacts of rainwater harvesting technology adopted on household income and employment generation in three districts in the Central Rift Valley of Oromiya Regional State of Ethiopia. Results are based on data collected from a survey of 300 household stratified into those with rain water harvesting structures and those without from which equal number of sample households were drawn randomly. Tobit model was used to estimate impacts of RWHT on household income and employment of hired laborers. The results indicate that among the variables used in the model, the variables that are significant in explaining the household income and employment generation are, availability of farmers` active labor force, household perception ,leadership status ,number of rain water harvesting structures owned, total land holding, and off-farm income activities availability. ····· 1036191560

internet technologies and ecotourism marketing

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Kenyan ecotourism industry has not fully exploited the opportunities presented by the internet to propagate its growth. The internet provides a new and important electronic commerce medium for tourism. The scale of the internet and its use to promote `disingenuous` ecotourism products may accelerate negative outcomes. However, the understanding of internet-based ecotourism developments - both delivery and outcomes - is limited. The overall purpose of this study is to assess the possible impacts of the internet technology on the Ecotourism industry in Kenya. The advancement of Internet technology worldwide has contributed to the enhancement of ecotourism principles. Despite much discussion devoted to defining ecotourism conceptually, knowledge regarding how ecotourism is actually developed through the Internet is still lacking. This book attempts to address these issues by exploring how ecotourism concept is enhanced through the Internet. ····· 1036191548

Traveling Salesman Problem

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of the most widely studied NP hard combinatorial optimization problems and has already solved in the semi-optimal manners using numbers of different methods. Among them, Genetic Algorithms (GA) is pre-dominating. In this paper I solve the problem with a new operator, Inver-over, for an evolutionary algorithm for the TSP. This operator outperforms all other `genetic` operators, whether unary or binary, which was first introduced by Guo Tao and Zbigniew Michalewicz. I also propose a new algorithm for solving TSP and also introduced it modified version. To get a comparative idea of the performance of these algorithms I solve same problems with the two algorithms. The performance analysis shows that my proposed algorithm produces relatively better solutions in the case of the tour length every time. But when we increase the cities it takes more time to solve than the Inver-Over operator for TSP. ····· 1036191458

Una de las alternativas sobre la ineficiencia, inequidad y baja cobertura del Sistema Sistema General de Seguridad Social en Salud de Colombia y dentro del proceso de modernización del Estado fue implementar una reforma al sector salud con la Ley 100 de 1993. Esta reforma considera indispensable que se tenga la información necesaria para tomar decisiones dentro de un sistema de mercado y de libre escogencia. Los problemas de asimetría en la relación de los actores que participan del sistema, permiten que la aplicación de las técnicas de agrupamiento borroso para la identificación de modelos borrosos se extienda al sector salud por tratarse de modelos locales no lineales para el control. En este trabajo se revisan las principales técnicas de agrupamiento para la identificación de los factores determinantes de asimetría de la información en la utilización del servicio médico en el Eje cafetero, incluyendo propuestas que permiten medir la asimetría de la información y clasificar dichos factores con técnicas borrosas. ····· 1036190857

Identidades en juego

La siguiente investigación demuestra la relación existente entre las prácticas lúdicas y los procesos de identificación cultural, observados a través del recorrido de diferentes escenarios lúdicos en jóvenes de ascendencia mapuche. Los lugares elegidos comprenden diferentes espacios delimitados a los fines de este trabajo, circunscriptos en poblados del noroeste de la provincia de Chubut, Patagonia Argentina, dentro de los cuales se encuentran dos escuelas rurales, en una zona geográfica ubicada en la estepa patagónica, próximas al paralelo 42º. En estos contextos, los procesos históricos, económicos y sociopolíticos (aunque también características geográficas y climáticas), permite que los jóvenes lleven a cabo diferentes juegos, principal fuente de observación, aunque no la única, puesto que éstas prácticas se dan en el marco de relaciones sociales complejas, tanto en el marco institucional escolar como en la cotidianidad social extraescolar. Es así que los niños y jóvenes llevan adelante prácticas lúdicas en las que aparecen continuidades y divergencias vinculadas a las tradiciones mostrando el carácter relacional e histórico sobre los que se edifican los procesos culturales. ····· 1036190036

En el presente trabajo, se realizó un estudio bacteriológico en tres unidades de producción de trucha arco iris en el Estado de Hidalgo. Se hicieron cuatro muestreos en dichas unidades en (junio, julio, agosto y octubre). Se tomaron muestras de peces y del agua de los estanques de cada una de las unidades. Se identificaron bacterias patógenas de los géneros Aeromonas, Pseudomonas y Vibrio, además de diferentes géneros de la familia Enterobacteriaceae en diferentes órganos (branquias, intestino, riñón y lesiones en aletas) y en el agua de los estanques de cultivo de la especie. Algunas de estas bacterias pertenecen a la microbiota normal de los peces, mientras que la presencia de las enterobacterias se relacionada con las inadecuadas prácticas de manejo que llevan a cabo en dichas unidades de producción. Las variaciones con relación al número de UFC/g y UFC/mL estuvieron determinadas por los diferentes meses de muestreo donde se observó que la mayor cantidad de bacterias está dada en los meses de verano mientras que disminuye gradualmente en los meses de otoño. ····· 1036189879

El agua, entendida como un recurso limitado y de primera necesidad, es amenazada día a día por la acción del hombre. Este recurso se está transformando de manera muy acelerada en un bien, que en pocos años más será causal de muchos conflictos entre naciones para obtenerla. La presente investigación pretende contribuir al uso eficiente de dicho recurso, centrándose en el ahorro del agua en el riego de áreas verdes, como jardines, canchas, parques, etc., privados y públicos. Estas áreas son importantes en las ciudades porque contribuyen de mane-ra eficiente a la purificación del aire, sin embargo, la mayoría de las veces son regadas de manera ineficiente permitiendo el despilfarro de este vital elemento, que es el agua. En el presente estudio se diseñó un modelo para optimizar la localización de aspersores de riego en áreas verdes, cuyo propósito es entregar al usuario una herramienta para planear un sistema de riego. Esto permitirá optimizar el uso del agua, lo que conlleva a un ahorro del recurso, y por ende, un ahorro económico para el dueño del predio, puesto que la mayoría de las áreas verdes que existen en las zonas urbanas son regadas con agua potable. ····· 1036189826

This work is unique in that it, for the first time, takes up urbanization and urban related issues in North-western part of Ethiopia, particularly in Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State. Because, studies on urbanization and urban growth in Ethiopia are generally confined to major cities like Addis Ababa, Bahir Dar, Naziret and others ignoring the situation of smaller but still very important towns, mainly in the North-western Ethiopia. Bullen town is such an urban area which has important historical, socioeconomic, political and institutional progresses and problems. However, the town has been marginalized and has been out of the scope of several research works so far conducted in Ethiopia. With this consideration, this project was aimed at assessing the historical development of the town, problems it faced and development options it has. By doing so, the findings of this research work are expected to indicate major areas of the problems associated with its economic, social and institutional developments so that concerned bodies can seek for solutions that will help tackle those problems.

Alcohol Consumption Reduces Effortful Fatigue After Sleep:

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The current work examined whether greater alcohol consumption at night would predict less effortful fatigue the next morning. The theory is that effortful thought and behavior benefit from additional stored metabolites, and that drinking alcohol temporarily reduces metabolites but later increases them. Participants attended a drinking, social event at night. The next morning, they completed an effortful task (a breath-blowing task requiring forceful exertion and persistence) before and after a mentally fatiguing task (controlling attention). Consuming more alcohol during the event predicted less fatigue on the effortful breath-blowing task, computed as the difference between performance on the task before and after the attention control task. Alcohol consumption might be one strategy for reducing later fatigue on effortful tasks. ····· 1036188303

Aluminium based nanocomposites

The phase evolution characteristics in the elemental blends of Al92Mn6Ce2, Al94.5Cr3Co1.5Ce1, Al87Y10Ni3 and Al88Ni9Ce2Fe1 compositions during mechanical alloying were studied. It was revealed that a wide variation of lattice parameter of Al-rich solid solutions in presence of similar level of surface and strain energy played a pivotal role in the amorphous phase formation by mechanical alloying. None of the aforesaid alloys resulted in a completely amorphous structure and hence, an attempt was made to consolidate the mechanically alloyed fully amorphous powder of Al88Ni6Ti6 composition to produce bulk Al-rich nanocomposites having densities near to the theoretical density. Consolidation was carried out by spark plasma sintering, hot pressing and conventional pressure-less sintering methods. The microstructural features and mechanical properties were also investigated for the ultrasonically cast nanocomposites of Al reinforced with nano-sized Al2O3 (average size ~10 nm) particles. Orowan mechanism predicted much higher yield strength than that observed in the present nanocomposites. ····· 1036188159

Extension should note of the changes that are taking place in and around the country to improve its efficiency and effectiveness. Agriculture is moving from subsistence to market oriented farming though a large number of farmers shall be producing for their own consumption. Farmers need a wide range of information for different resource and constraint situation for production as well as for pre-production and post production functions. These require some new approaches in extension. Sustainability issues have become very important as farmers are to obtain increased return from their enterprises by preserving and enhancing their own and also country s resources. Information technology is improving and spreading at a rapid rate. The people are also diversifying their enterprises. The author has written the book with 10 chapters and has discussed, analyzed in depth on the concept of cyber extension, expert system, persuasive communication, effect of mobile phone on society.This book may be an indispensable guide book for people and students who are related with agriculture, agriculture extension and communication in the schools, colleges and universities. ····· 1036188090

A prophetic voice should be raised through a concrete commitment to the plight of the immigrants, giving reasons for hope that are translatable into just polities and policies. It is through such hope that the anguish and fears of immigrants who live in Ivory Coast will find compassionate ears and hearts. Is there good news for these immigrants Can we imagine citizenship as extended to accommodate immigrants Correlatively, is it good news for Ivorians who have sought a national identity to understand themselves through a relationship with the immigrants from Burkina Faso These are questions this book hopes to answer. It seems it is a common occurrence among human beings to welcome others, but it is unusual to make others one of them. The tragedy today is that welcoming others and justly distributing membership have become equally unnatural to the practices of admission in modern societies.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the major cause of acute and chronic hepatitis which could lead to hepatocellular carcinoma. Currently, interferon- and nucleosidic inhibitors of HBV reverse transcriptase, polymerase, lamivudine (3TC), adefovir and entecavir are the only drugs approved for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. However, interferon- -produces many side affects with partial efficacy less than 30% of the chronic carriers responding to treatment. In addition, about 50% of the patients who respond positively to interferon- treatments are known to suffer recurrence of the viremia after cessation of the treatment. In contrast, 3TC has more universal applicability and is able to reduce the viral load very rapidly. Complete and sustained suppression of viral replication remain the most important goal in the treatment of patient with chronic (HBV) infection. Nucleoside and Nucleotide analogues have greatly improved the disease outcome for these patients and have also prevented hepatic decompensation or the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, there is need for drugs that directly inhibit HBV production. Most compounds explored so far are nucleoside analogs. ····· 1036187317

This book concentrates on removal of SPN,RVIN,Gaussian & Speckle noise from images.Most of the nonlinear filters used in removal of impulsive noise work in two phases,i.e.detection followed by filtering only the corrupted pixels keeping uncorrupted ones intact. Performance of such filters is dependent on the performance of detection schemes. In this book thrust has been put to devise an accurate detection scheme and a novel weighted median filtering mechanism. Comparative analysis has been made with existing standard schemes with suitable parameters such as Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR),Access Time & Image Enhancement Factor.I am thankful to Prof.Dr.David Ebenezer,The experimental methods and results presented in this book have been in uenced by his article. ····· 1036187205

Teachers` Beliefs and Practices

This book is an exploration of the relationship between one teacher s beliefs about teaching English as a second language and her classroom practice. It shows how the teacher s beliefs play out in the classroom setting. It highlights the teacher s beliefs about language, language teaching and learning, use of mother tongue, errors and error correction. It further uncovers the other factors like school policy, working experience and personal learning experiences which also impact practice. It concludes by maintaining that teaching is an extremely complex activity and it is not always possible to link belief to practice. It is, nevertheless, vital to study the teachers beliefs as any professional development activities teachers engage in must consider the teachers beliefs as teachers always view new learning through their own belief lens. Hence, focus on teachers beliefs is an important component for the success of professional development activities which educational institutions engage in. ····· 1036187030
