    The application of land evaluation technique in the north-east of Libya

    Land evaluation is a prerequisite to achieving optimum utilisation of available land resources for agricultural production. The principal purpose of land evaluation is to predict the potential and the limitations of land for changing use. Food security is one of the most important issues of agriculture policy in Libya. The country aims to obtain self‐sufficiency for its in agricultural products which contribute largely to the diet of most of the population. Therefore, eighty per cent of water transferred from aquifer‐sourced in the south of the country to the north, is planned for agriculture development. Cereal crops such wheat, barley, maize and sorghum are given the highest priority. There is, therefore, a pressing need to develop an optimal land evaluation method to identify in which part of a region these selected crops could e grown favourably. The model should be developed in accordance with the priorities of the Libyan Government in developing a practical and applicable land evaluation system that can be used by the average computer user. The FAO Framework was selected to conduct the land suitability assessment. This selection was based upon extensive and critical review of land evaluation methodologies and an evaluation of the objectives for and of the data available for study area. The FAO framework is a set of guidelines rather than a classification system, and model used builds upon this

    Quasi-Static Voltage Scaling for Energy Minimization with Time Constraints

    No full text
    Supply voltage scaling and adaptive body-biasing are important tech-niques that help to reduce the energy dissipation of embedded systems. This is achieved by dynamically adjusting the voltage and performance settings according to the application needs. In order to take full ad-vantage of slack that arises from variations in the execution time, it is important to recalculate the voltage (performance) settings during run-time, i.e., online. However, voltage scaling (VS) is computationally ex-pensive, and thus significantly hampers the possible energy savings. To overcome the online complexity, we propose a quasi-static voltage scal-ing scheme, with a constant online time complexity O(1). This allows to increase the exploitable slack as well as to avoid the energy dissipated due to online recalculation of the voltage settings. We conduct several experiments that demonstrate the advantages of the proposed technique over the previously published voltage scaling approaches

    The Al Bashir debacle

    Get PDF
    This article deals with the failure of states to comply with their obligation to execute the warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for the arrest of President Omar Hassan Ahmed Al Bashir of Sudan. President Al Bashir is to stand trial on serious charges, including acts of genocide, based on action taken on instructions of President Al Bashir to eliminate nationals of Sudan who are not of Arab extraction. President Al Bashir may be depicted as the Adolph Hitler of Africa by virtue of his efforts to create a Sudanese Herrenvolk and, in the process, causing the death of between 200 000 and 400 000 members of African tribes in the Sudanese province of Darfur and the displacement of approximately 2,5 million people. A special focus of the article is the hosting of President Al Bashir by the South African government in June 2015 at a summit of the African Union in Johannesburg, in blatant defiance of the rule of law, and escorting him out of the country in contempt of an order of the High Court, Gauteng Division. South Africa claimed that its obligations as a member state of the African Union prevented it from executing the warrant of arrest. However, South Africa was compelled to execute the warrant of arrest (a) as a state party to the ICC Statute; (b) because the Security Council had instructed all member states of the United Nations to do so, and (c) because South Africa’s own Rome Statute Implementation Act, 2002 requires it of South African authorities. Claiming that President Al Bashir as a head of state enjoyed sovereign immunity is also based on a false premise, since sovereign immunity does not apply to prosecutions in international tribunals. Maintaining that President Al Bashir is immune from prosecution in the ICC is criticised in the article.http://reference.sabinet.co.za/sa_epublication/ju_ahrljhb201
