    No full text
    Integration is an activity that unites people, equipments, programs but also managerial practices and helps a company to put its knowledge into good use. In Romania, more and more private companies choose to have integrated systems to help them grow. Public owned companies and institutions, for example The National House of Pensions and Other Social Insurance Right, invested large amounts of founds in the development of new information systems to help them gather, process and disseminate data from the population.integration, information systems, standards, data integration, application integration

    In 1919 at the end of the First World War General Louis Botha (1862 - 1919) was treated as a hero due to the victories of the African campaign. Botha died in the same year and Eloff created a small bronze commemorative portrait. This work is currently in the Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns Collection in the Engelenburg House in Pretoria

    Interview with RF 'Pik' Botha, conducted 13th December 2012 in Pretoria, South Africa, as part of the Commonwealth Oral History Project. The project aims to produce a unique digital research resource on the oral history of the Commonwealth since 1965 through sixty oral history interviews with leading figures in the recent history of the organisation. It will provide an essential research tool for anyone investigating the history of the Commonwealth and will serve to promote interest in and understanding of the organisation. Biography: Botha, Roelof Frederik ‘Pik’. 1932- . Born in Rustenburg, Transvaal Province, Union of South Africa. Studied at the University of Pretoria before beginning a career in the South African foreign service, 1953, serving in Sweden, West Germany, and the Netherlands. Law Adviser to Department of Foreign Affairs, 1966-74, serving on the delegation representing South Africa at the United Nations. South African Ambassador to the United States, 1975-77. South African Minister of Foreign Affairs, 1977-94. Minister of Mineral & Energy Affairs, 1994-96. Deputy Leader of the National Party in Transvaal, 1987-96

    A linear force-free field solution is presented in cylindrical coordinates, formulated in terms of trigonometric and Bessel functions. A numerical exploration has revealed that this solution describes magnetic field lines that meander in Cartesian space, as well as field lines that lie on toroidal flux surfaces. These tori are in (or close to) the plane perpendicular to the cylindrical axis. Nested tori, as well as tori with shells that have finite thickness, were found. The parameter space of the solution shows that the tori exist within a bounded range of values

    A method for multiple superposition of structures

    No full text
    The study of families of protein structures is important in analysing the results of NMR structure determinations and in investigating mechanisms of molecular evolution at the level of conformation. A method is discussed for finding the transformations that mutually superpose an arbitrary number of structures in the least-squares sense given specified atom-to-atom correspondence

    Failed states, fading dreams and a failing democracy : the critical role of public law academics

    No full text
    Text of inaugural address by Prof. Christoffel Botha, Department of Public Law on 17 October 2007.With reference to incidents where rule of law has been disregarded by the South African government and pointing to the danger of paraliament becoming a mere rubber stamp for the executive, the author urges legal academics - and particularly public law academics - to become involved through criticism

    E-LEARNING STRATEGIES IN THE CONTEXT OF KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY

    No full text
    Given the actual society, called often knowledge society, most organizations are experimenting with some form of computer-assisted instruction, in order to train their employees. This article presents briefly the main characteristics of the knowledge society and of the e-learning systems, and how these two concepts interact and affect each other. Also, there are identified the most important informatics technologies which can be used in the e-learning applications. In order to analyze the actual e-learning systems, some of them are identified and compared based on various criteria.e-learning, Web Based Training, Knowledge Society, informatics technologies
