Theoretical and applicative dimensions regarding communication management
No full textThe paper represents the synthesis approach on a scientific investigation made in a private company having 37 employees, aiming at establishing the relation between the management processes and communication management, and for this purpose, following the presentation of some introductory notions, theoretical and practical objectives have been formulated, as well as two research hypotheses. The methods and techniques applied during the research, along with the targeted group have been also briefly presented. In the end, there is a presentation of the outputs of the research and the conclusions stemming from the verification of the hypotheses, on this occasion the main drawbacks of the managerial processes being identified. It was therefore established that the managerial processes map must be redesigned for the company's performance improvement, by redesigning a new communication management scheme that would consider the afore-mentioned findings. The correspondent elements of the formal communication organization do not determine similar configurations on the informal plan due to systemic and integrated operation of the communication management. The importance of this practical approach stems from the fact that the consequences of the organization and communication coordination in the managerial processes are proved.Getting an insight into these plans can only be beneficial for the development of communication management and for the growth of the organizational performancemanagement, communication management, organizational performance
Partially Supervised Approach in Signal Recognition
No full textThe paper focuses on the potential of principal directions based approaches in signal classification and recognition. In probabilistic models, the classes are represented in terms of multivariate density functions, and an object coming from a certain class is modeled as a random vector whose repartition has the density function corresponding to this class. In cases when there is no statistical information concerning the set of density functions corresponding to the classes involved in the recognition process, usually estimates based on the information extracted from available data are used instead. In the proposed methodology, the characteristics of a class are given by a set of eigen vectors of the sample covariance matrix. The overall dissimilarity of an object X with a given class C is computed as the disturbance of the structure of C, when X is allotted to C. A series of tests concerning the behavior of the proposed recognition algorithm are reported in the final section of the paper.signal processing, classification, pattern recognition, compression/decompression
Defalcation of European Union Budget in the Romanian Criminal Law
No full textOne of the goals for Romania, after the 1st January 2007, was to protect the financial interests of the European Union to fight against fraud, corruption and other illegal activities. In order to achieve this target, the legal framework has been completed by the Law no. 161/2003 which introduced the article no. 182 in the text of the Law no. 78/2000 regarding prevention, discovery and punishing the corruption acts. The author analyses this new article and he develops the two constitutive elements (actus reus, mens rea), the objective and subjective aspects of the analyzed crime, the ways, the legal punishments applicable to this crime.fraud, financial interests, spending, incomes, actus reus, mens rea, legal punishments.
Psychological Process of Forming the Declarations of Victims and of Crime Witnesses
No full textThe process of forming the witnesses’ declarations involves a moment of achieving the information circumscribed to the crime or to its author, a moment of keeping the perceived information in memory and, finally, the moment of communicating this information to the judicial organs, by reproducing or acknowledging. To this process forming, all the sensations categories compete, in some way. Some of them have a prevailing role (visual and auditory sensations), others have a subsequent role (tactile, olfactory and gustatory sensations).witness, harmed person, testimony, crime
DIMENSIONS OF CULTURAL INFLUENCE ON ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT OF SMEs IN GORJ COUNTY
No full textThe problem of the influence of culture on organization and management, the management should generally be viewed from two perspectives: that of national culture and organizational culture. Although the two types of cultures is a direct relationship, although they influence each other, are not identical phenomena, they are different. The study leads to the conclusion that organizational culture does not delete does not diminish the national culture, sometimes she even maintains and enhances national differences.cultural dimension,behavior,individualism-collectivism,teamwork.
Biomimetic membranes of lipid-peptide model systems prepared on solid support
No full textThe structure of membrane-active peptides and their interaction with lipid bilayers can be studied in oriented lipid membranes deposited on solid substrates. Such systems are desirable for a number of surface-sensitive techniques. Here we focus on structural characterization by X-ray and neutron reflectivity and give account of recent progress in sample preparation and measurements. We show that the degree of mesoscopic disorder in the films can significantly influence the scattering curves. Static defects should be minimized by optimization of the preparation techniques and their presence must be taken into account in the modelling. Examples are given for alamethicin and magainin in bilayers of different phosphocholines
Structure and interaction potentials in solid-supported lipid membranes studied by x-ray reflectivity at varied osmotic pressure
No full textHighly oriented solid-supported lipid membranes in stacks of controlled number N ≃ 16 (oligo-membranes) have been prepared by spin-coating using the uncharged lipid model system 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC). The samples have been immersed in aqueous polymer solutions for control of osmotic pressure and have been studied by X-ray reflectivity. The bilayer structure and fluctuations have been determined by modelling the data over the full q-range. Thermal fluctuations are described using the continuous smectic Hamiltonian with the appropriate boundary conditions at the substrate and at the free surface of the stack. The resulting fluctuation amplitudes and the pressure-distance relation are discussed in view of the inter-bilayer potential
Legal and Financial Problems of International Joint Custody of Children
No full textThe aim of this article is to analyze very interesting and currently up-to-date area of children living in international joint custody from the legal and financial point of view. This covers the situation when custody of a child is awarded to both parents living in different states of the European Union (or also other states). The number of marriages contracted between Czech nationals and foreign nationals and also between nationals from two different states (not necessarily inside European Union) increases every year while free movement of people is a real practice today. Because these international marriages are becoming more common they bring new problems that must be solved by contemporary law. This regulation needs to result from the knowledge of the children psychology that is affecting family law the most but also has its practical aspects in the area of taxation and payment issues that will be analyzed deeply as well.juridical problems, financial problems, international joint custody, family.
The Catalogue of “Constantin Ciubuc” Trichoptera (Insecta) Collection of “Grigore Antipa” National Museum of Natural History
No full textAbstract
The catalogue of “Constantin Ciubuc” trichopteran collection includes a total of 188 species, 178,878 specimens, (68,966 ♂♂ and 110,937 ♀♀) belonging to 19 families of the Order Trichoptera, Class Insecta. Imago insects were caught by the author and different collaborators, or friends, within the period 1986–2015 (Tab. 5). Last material was collected in the summer of 2016, in the Bucegi Natural Park and Natura 2000 site (ROSCI0013 - Bucegi) (Tab. 6). A percentage of less than 0.1% of the samples contained in the collection are insects from “Adriana Murgoci” collection, collected by Petre Iuncu in the period 1953–1954, offered to the author for preservation in 1985 (Tab. 5). Almost all samples were captured by light traps (white, black, blue), using mercury vapor lamps and / or incandescent light lamps and preserved in tubes, hermetically sealed, in ethyl alcohol. All information regarding the number of specimens, species, author, sex, habitat, sampling places, methods, number, the person who made the capture, climatic conditions during the collection, the date of collection, the geographical coordinates of sampling points, and other information are included in the database (Tabs 5 and 6). Some information on the Romanian endemic species, of the Balkans and of south-eastern Europe are given, as well as the taxonomic index, index of localities, sampling methodology, distribution map of the sampling places in Romania. The large number of species, specimens, vast area, sampling, information contained in the database (Tabs 5, 6) make the collection a scientific reference document for freshwater invertebrate fauna of Romania. It is the single complete trichopteran collection, with specimens collected from Romanian territory.</jats:p
Applications of Civil Responsibility in Case of “Nemo Auditur Propriam Turpitudinem Alegans“ Rule
No full textThe “nemo auditur propriam turpitudiniem alegans” adage (nobody is being listened when he presents his own indecency), as an application of the civil criminal responsibility, has as origin the action called condictio by means of which the person who executed his obligation based on an immoral convention (condictio ab turpen causa) could ask the return of the services. But, when both the plaintiff and the defendant were guilty of immorality, the repetition action should have been rejected based on the "in pari causa turpitudinis cessat repetitio" adage that represents a primitive appearance of the “nemo auditur propriam turpitudiniem alegans” rule.The rule fundament results even from its wording that allows us to see its moral nature that represents actually a refuse to act for the ones who want to use their embarrassing actions in front of the justice.In other words, we must notice the fact that the doctrine did not have a unitary position regarding the application of the rule and the opinions are shared because some authors accept with no reserves the application of the rule, while others declare to be against its application.Regarding the jurisprudence, if it is unitary when it affirms that the liberality by means of which we follow the start, the continuation or the restart of a concubinage relation has a purpose against the social cohabitation rules, and the sanction of a juridical act with such a cause is the absolute nullity , and this is not unitary anymore regarding its position against the ending of such an approach. In most of the cases, the courts are happy to find that the respective obligation has an illicit cause according to art. 968 of Civil Code without specifying if it is immoral or not, in order to make possible the application of the rule in the eventuality of promoting a returning action of the party who had received the liberality with such a cause. But, if we consider we are in the presence of an immoral convention, and the nemo auditor propriam turpitudiniem alegans rule becomes applicable, the return of the services is not possible anymore. Regarding this rule application, we must notice that its application is actually a civil sanction that consists in non-accepting the access to justice, by means of the returning action of the parties that are guilty of the immorality of their convention, that are thus lacked of the protection offered by the law, just because of the insecurity that could be produced by the non-acceptance of such a protection.Most of the cases where the nemo auditur propriam turpitudiniem alegans rule exists are circumscribed to the obligations that are born from a contract, and regard the repetition action or the returning one. Such a way of resolving conflicts between two parties is also a mediation, which takes the form of a contract that confirms the willingness of parties to prevent and extinguish the conflict.adage, plaintiff, minor, juridical act, civil responsibility, action
