The SISO CSPI PDG standard for commercial off-the-shelf simulation package interoperability reference models
No full textFor many years discrete-event simulation has been used to analyze production and logistics problems in manufactur-ing and defense. Commercial-off-the-shelf Simulation Packages (CSPs), visual interactive modelling environ-ments such as Arena, Anylogic, Flexsim, Simul8, Witness, etc., support the development, experimentation and visua-lization of simulation models. There have been various attempts to create distributed simulations with these CSPs and their tools, some with the High Level Architecture (HLA). These are complex and it is quite difficult to assess how a set of models/CSP are actually interoperating. As the first in a series of standards aimed at standardizing how the HLA is used to support CSP distributed simula-tions, the Simulation Interoperability Standards Organiza-tion’s (SISO) CSP Interoperability Product Development Group (CSPI PDG) has developed and standardized a set of Interoperability Reference Models (IRM) that are in-tended to clearly identify the interoperability capabilities of CSP distributed simulations
Distributed simulation with COTS simulation packages: A case study in health care supply chain simulation
No full textThe UK National Blood Service (NBS) is a public funded body that is responsible for distributing blood and asso-ciated products. A discrete-event simulation of the NBS supply chain in the Southampton area has been built using the commercial off-the-shelf simulation package (CSP) Simul8. This models the relationship in the health care supply chain between the NBS Processing, Testing and Is-suing (PTI) facility and its associated hospitals. However, as the number of hospitals increase simulation run time be-comes inconveniently large. Using distributed simulation to try to solve this problem, researchers have used techniques informed by SISO’s CSPI PDG to create a version of Simul8 compatible with the High Level Architecture (HLA). The NBS supply chain model was subsequently divided into several sub-models, each running in its own copy of Simul8. Experimentation shows that this distri-buted version performs better than its standalone, conven-tional counterpart as the number of hospitals increases
Investigating distributed simulation with COTS simulation packages: Experiences with Simul8 and the HLA
No full textCommercial-off-the-shelf simulation packages (CSPs) are used widely in industry. Several research groups are currently working towards the creation of distributed simulation with these CSPs. The motivations to do this are various and are largely unproven as there are very few good examples of this kind of distributed simulation in practice. Our goal is therefore to create a distributed simulation environment using CSPs that will allow end users to make their own decisions as to whether this technology will be useful. This paper presents continuing research in creating such an environment using the CSP Simul8 and the High Level Architecture, the IEEE 1516 standard for distributed simulation. The scope of this paper is limited to the CSPI-PDG Type I Interoperability Reference Model

No full textThe law governing criminal acts of corruption is Law Number 31 of 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning Eradication of Corruption. Corruption crime regulated by Law Number 31 of 1999 consists of various forms / types. In writing this thesis, the author conducts research on corruption cases as referred to in decision Number 3 / TIPIKOR / 2016 / PT PDG and Number 9 / TIPIKOR / 2017 / PT PDG. From the results of the study, the first conclusion was obtained that the consideration of the appellate level judges in applying the elements of Article 2 and Article 3, that in Decision Number 3 / TIPIKOR / 2016 / PT PDG, was the legal judgment of the First Level Judge in its decision that could be approved and corroborated by the Level Judge Appeals, except in the case of conviction for the Defendant, according to the Judge of the Level of Appeals the imposed criminal sentence needs to be aggravated and there are still incriminating matters for the Defendant that have not been considered by the First Level Judge. Criminal application by the Court of Appeal Court is to improve the decision of the First Level Court which imprisonment for 2 (two) years and 6 (six) months and improvement of imprisonment for 3 (three) years and a fine of Rp 50,000,000 (fifty) million rupiahs) subsidair criminal confinement for 2 (two) months. Judge\u27s consideration in Decision Number 9 / TIPIKOR / 2017 / PT PDG, is that the Panel of Appeal Judges has considered Article 2 with elements of a criminal offense committed by the defendant. The Appellate Court Judges disagree with the decision of the First Level Court regarding the Acts of the Defendants in violation of Article 3 of Law Number 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption. Based on the results of the examination of legal facts in the trial and the consideration of the Panel of Appellate Judges with the Primair indictment proved and fulfilled all elements of Article 2 paragraph (1) Juncto Article 18 paragraph (1) letter b paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) of Law Number 31 of 1999. The application of the criminal sentence dropped to Defendants II and IV for 4 years and fined Rp. 200,000,000.00 (two hundred million rupiah)
Confirmation of ovulation from urinary progesterone analysis: assessment of two automated assay platforms
No full text\ua9 2018, The Author(s). Urinary concentrations of the major progesterone (P4) metabolite pregnanediol-3-glucuronide (PDG) are used to confirm ovulation. We aimed to determine whether automated immunoassay of urinary P4 was as efficacious as PDG to confirm ovulation. Daily urine samples from 20 cycles in 14 healthy women in whom ovulation was dated by ultrasound, and serial weekly samples from 21 women in whom ovulation was unknown were analysed. Daily samples were assayed by two automated P4 immunoassays (Roche Cobas and Abbott Architect) and PDG ELISA. Serial samples were assayed for P4 by Architect and PDG by ELISA. In women with detailed monitoring of ovulation, median (95% CI) luteal phase increase was greatest for PDG, 427% (261–661), 278% (187–354) for P4 Architect and least for P4 Cobas, 146% (130–191), p < 0.0001. Cobas P4 also showed marked inaccuracy in serial dilution. Similar ROC AUCs were observed for individual threshold values and two-sample percent rise analyses for P4 Architect and PDG (both >0.92). In serial samples classified as (an)ovulatory by PDG, P4 Architect gave ROC AUC 0.95 (95% CI 0.89 to 1.01), with sensitivity and specificity for confirmation of ovulation of 0.90 and 0.91 at a cutoff of 1.67 μmol/mol. Automated P4 may potentially be as efficacious as PDG ELISA but research from a range of clinical settings is required

Factors in Top Executive Turnover: An Empirical Analysis of the Italian Listed Firms
No full textThis paper aims to study the existing link between CEOs turnover and several variables that could explain the exit of a CEO. The survey takes performance measures into account as main variables. Besides performance variables the study includes: ownership structure variables; variables that highlight personal features of a CEO and the composition of the board; firm variables. The number of sampled Italian companies ranges from 134 to 218 over the period 1996-2002. Accounting returns explain the turnover much better than market measures of performance; CEOs of stateowned firms change more frequently than others; the stake of minority shareholders is positively related to the turnover; the presence of syndicates negatively affects the turnover. In Italy, accounting returns “count” much more than market-based performances.
PERTIMBANGAN HAKIM MENOLAK PEMBELAAN TERPAKSA DALAM PUTUSAN HAKIM TINDAK PIDANA PASAL 351 AYAT 3 KUHP DITINJAU DARI KEADILAN DAN KEPASTIAN HUKUM (Putusan Pengadilan Negeri Padang Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg)
No full textPertanggungjawaban pidana hanya dapat terjadi jika seseorang melakukan tindak pidana, dengan melakukan tindak pidana seseorang dapat dimintai pertanggungjawaban. Hukum pidana memiliki alasan seseorang tidak bisa dipertanggungjawabkan atas tindak pidana yag dilakukanya. Terdapat beberapa keadaan yang menyebabkan perbuatan pidana tidak dipidana. Hal tersebut dikenal dengan alasan peniadaan pidana, salah satunya karena pembelaan terpaksa. Dalam penelitian ini berkaitan dengan keadilan dan kepastian hukum terhadap pertimbangan hakim menolak pembelaan terpaksa dalam putusan hakim terhadap tindak pidana Pasal 351 ayat (3) KUHP (Putusan Pengadilan Padang Negeri Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg). Rumusan masalah dalam penelitian tesis ini adalah (1) Bagaimanakah Dasar Pertimbangan Hakim Menolak Perbuatan Pembelaan Terpaksa Dalam Putusan Hakim Terhadap Tindak Pidana Pasal 351 ayat (3) KUHP Putusan Pengadilan Negeri Padang Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg? (2) Bagaimanakah Pembuktian Oleh Hakim Terhadap Tindak Pidana Pasal 351 Ayat 3 KUHP Ditinjau Dari Keadilan dan Kepastian Hukum Dalam Putusan Pengadilan Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg? Metode penelitian yang penulis gunakan adalah yuridis normatif, dimana penelitian ini dilakukan dengan cara mengkaji dan menelaah putusan dan mengkaitkan dengan Peraturan Perundang-undangan yang berlaku sebagai hukum positif yang ada di Indonesia. Berdasarkan penelitian ini yang telah penulis lakukan bahwa didapatkan kesimpulan (1) Dasar pertimbangan hakim menolak perbuatan pembelaan terpaksa dalam putusan pengadilan Padang Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg bahwa putusan yang dijatuhkan kepada terdakwa kurang tepat, hakim menyatakan tidak adanya unsur pembelaan terpaksa yang terdapat pada Pasal 49 ayat 1 KUHP dan hakim melihat dari unsur-unsur perbuatan pidana yaitu penganiayaan mengakibatkan hilangnya nyawa seseorang serta hakim tidak menjelaskan dalam putusan terhadap pembelaan terpaksa sebagai peniadaan pidana. (2)Pembuktian Oleh Hakim Terhadap Tindak Pidana Pasal 351 Ayat 3 KUHP Ditinjau Dari Keadilan dan Kepastian Hukum Dalam Putusan Pengadilan Nomor 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg, kesalahan melalui pembuktian akan ditentukan bersalah atau tidak melakukan tindak pidana, apabila kesalahan terdakwa dapat dibuktikan dengan alat-alat bukti yang terdapat dalam Pasal 184 KUHAP dan keyakinan hakim. Melalui tulisan ini penulis menyarankan hendaknya hakim lebih mencermati, menggali terhadap putusan yang telah dijatuhkan kepada terdakwa agar terciptanya suatu aspek keadilan dan kepastian hukum dalam putusan hakim tersebut.

Criminal liability can only occur if someone takes responsibility. Criminal law has reasons that a person cannot be held accountable for a crime he has committed. There are several circumstances that cause a criminal act can not be punished. This is known as the reason for the abolition of a crime, which is because the defense is forced. In this study it relates to justice and legal certainty regarding the considerations of Article 351 paragraph (3) of the Criminal Code (Decision of the Padang District Court Number 373/Pid B/2020/PN Pdg). The formulation of the problem in this thesis research is (1) What are the Judges' Based for Rejecting Self Defense in the Judge's Decision Against the Crime of Article 351 paragraph (3) of the Criminal Code Padang District Court Decision Number 373/Pid.B/2020/PN Pdg? (2) How is the Judge's Proofing of the Criminal Act of Article 351 Paragraph 3 of the Criminal Code Viewed from Justice and Legal Certainty in Court Decision Number 373/Pid B/2020/PN Pdg? The research method is using normative juridical where this carried out by studying and examining decisions and linking them with the laws and regulations that apply as positive law in Indonesia. Based on this research, it can be concluded (1) The basis for the judge's consideration of rejecting the act of self defense in the Padang court decision Number 373 Pid B 2020 PN Pdg that the decision handed down to the defendant was inaccurate, the judge stated that there was no element of forced defense contained in Article 49 paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code and judges see from the elements of a criminal act that persecution resulted in the loss of a person's life and the judge did not explain in the decision against forced defense as an abolition of crime. (2) Proof by the judge against the crime of Article 351 paragraph 3 of the Criminal Code in terms of justice and legal certainty in the court decision number 373 Pid B 2020 PN Pdg, through evidence will determine guilt or not committing a crime, if the defendant's guilt can be proven by means of -evidence contained in Article 184 of the Criminal Procedure Code and the judge's conviction. Through this research the author suggests that judges should pay more attention, explore the decisions that have been handed down to the defendant so that an aspect of justice and legal certainty could be achieved.

Numerical and experimental analysis of polarization dependent gain vector in Brillouin amplification system
No full textThe polarization dependent gain (PDG) of Brillouin amplification systems is numerically investigated in detail by solving a new model describing the evolution of PDG vector along the fiber with random birefringence. In this model both the modulus and orientation of the PDG vector are considered. By including the temporal distribution of fiber birefringence, the statistical properties of the PDG vector, including its mean value and standard deviation, are presented as function of fiber beat length, input pump power and fiber length, which can be directly applied in practice to estimate the performance of Brillouin amplification systems in term of its polarization dependence. Experimental results on a Brillouin amplification system are also reported to support the validity of our model. The analysis presented here helps to gain insight for the properties of PDG vector in any SBS systems.National Natural Science Foundation of China [61275089]SCI(E)ARTICLE23-2838
