Demanding to be served : holding governments to account for improved access
No full textThis paper presents an overview of the constitutional-legal provisions on access to services in developing countries and shows that rights to public services are not justice-able. It further documents the performance record to show that governments'response to such a weak accountability framework has been predictable - poor performance in service delivery with little accountability. The paper also shows that while there has not been a shortage of ideas on how to deal with this problem, most approaches have failed because they could not diagnose and deal with the underlying causes of government dysfunction. The paper presents an analytical perspective on understanding the causes of dysfunctional governance and the incentives and accountability regimes that have the potential to overcome this dysfunction. The paper also documents practices that have shown some promise in improving access. The paper then integrates ideas from successful practices with conceptual underpinnings for good governance and presents a citizen-centric (rights based) governance approach to access. It further explores how such a citizen empowerment and government accountability framework can be implemented in practice, especially in the context of developing countries, where most governments still operate in a command and control environment with little or no orientation to serve their people. It also presents ideas on how to overcome resistance to such reforms.National Governance,Public Sector Corruption&Anticorruption Measures,Governance Indicators,Public Sector Expenditure Analysis&Management,Banks&Banking Reform

Sustainable Manufacturing through Digital Multi-Material 3D Printing
No full textThe utilisation of three-dimensional (3D) printing has become a well-established method for fabricating structural components across various materials such as polymers, metals and ceramics. Within this domain, multi-material 3D printing emerges as a pivotal advancement, offering prospects for rapid manufacturing, customised design, and structural innovation. Particularly, the incorporation of recycled materials into multi-material printing holds promise for promoting sustainability and recyclability in manufacturing processes. By leveraging multi-material printing techniques and incorporating recycled materials, this study aims to advance the sustainability agenda within manufacturing practices while concurrently exploring avenues to enhance material performance for practical engineering applications. This study focuses on the multi-material printing of pure polylactic acid (PLA) alongside recycled polylactic acid (rPLA), employing fused deposition modelling (FDM) as a cost-effective 3D printing technique. The research aims to identify the optimal composition for achieving desired material properties by exploring different percentages and layer placements of recycled material in combination with pure PLA. Detailed analysis of the mechanical properties of these 3D printed components was conducted, with the experimental results further validated through analysis of variance. The results of this study emphasis the mechanical advantages associated with the utilisation of multi-material 3D printing techniques. Moreover, the incorporation of both PLA and rPLA materials highlights the potential sustainability benefits inherent in these approaches

Pakistan’s water apportionment accord of 1991: 25 years and beyond
No full textThe apportionment of waters of the Indus River System between the provinces of Pakistan is widely hailed as a historic agreement. This agreement (herein referred to as the Accord) was signed into effect in 1991, just over 25 years ago. The Accord lacks a clearly stated objective and hence it is difficult to review the Accord against its objective. This paper presents a detailed thematic review of the Accord and interprets the literature and data sets that have become available over the last 25 years. Although the Accord leaves room for interpretation, which is often biased to a particular perspective, an obvious starting point that has been highlighted in the literature is to improve water accounting in the Indus basin and to clarify and document the Operating Rules. Over the next 25 years, demographic change, socioeconomic change, and climate change in the Indus Basin will place this Accord under increased scrutiny.<br/
Logic programming based information management tools for hypermedia systems
No full textThe availability of a large amount of on-line information has created a pressing problem of its maintenance and usability. This thesis presents an open architecture of a general framework, knowledge based hypermedia (kbh), in which a hypermedia system and a knowledge based system (kbs) are loosely coupled together. By adopting such a heterogeneous framework and an open architecture approach we aim to attack two problems. Firstly, to overcome a limitation of logic programming by providing loose coupling to conventional language applications which allows the power of logic programming techniques to be exploited for kbs development without undue consideration of interface questions. Secondly, by coupling a kbs to a hypermedia system, to provide domain independent kbs tools to provide additional facilities for managing the information stored in the hypermedia system. This thesis presents a range of logic programming based kbs tools for managing information in hypermedia. The tools allow non-typical styles of presenting information in hypermedia systems and make the available information more applicable and more understandable. The kbs tools concern ways to assimilate and retrieve documents in hypermedia systems. A semi-automatic method to assimilate new documents is proposed. The method is rather general, allowing the documents to be labelled with a proof tree generated in an interactive session with the kbs. The method of labelling then allows retrieval of documents according to a natural generalisation ordering based on this label and obviates the need to explicitly add new link information when new documents are added. A key benefit of kbh is that it offers a better environment for understanding on-line information than kbs or hypermedia individually. Particularly, the newly developed tools for information management offer a basis for solving disorientation, cognitive overhead and other navigational problems of hypermedia systems. These tools also provide active document features and an intelligent database retrieval environment which enhance the usability of hypermedia systems. In the reverse direction the presence of hypermedia increases the behavioural expressiveness of a kbs. The applicability of kbh and the newly developed tools are demonstrated in a legal domai
