Analysis on East-Asia Poverty Reduction Cooperation Pilot Project in Myanmar (Case Study: Two Pilot Villages in Nay Pyi Taw) (Nyan Win Paing , 2024)
No full textThis research is to examine the execution of the East-Asia Poverty Reduction
Cooperation Pilot Project in Myanmar. Primary data was collected from 150 respondents
picked from two pilot villages in Naypyitaw using a simple random sampling procedure.
The project has implemented a range of extensive poverty alleviation initiatives,
including rural infrastructure, public services, livelihood enhancement, and the capacity
development of rural families. It is also found that East-Asia Poverty Reduction
Cooperation Pilot Project has an effect on socio-economic conditions, agriculture, health,
education, and job opportunity of local people. Among the benefits on five areas, benefit
on socio-economic conditions is the largest followed by agriculture, job opportunity,
education and health. The project has directly and indirectly effect on rural development.
The data indicates that respondents see significant advantages from the East-Asia
Poverty Reduction Cooperation Pilot Project
Prediction Models for Estimation of California Bearing Ratio for Cohesive Soil
No full textCohesive soils are well known for their low strength properties. Thus, they are inappropriate for geotechnical works. Soils may be stabilized to increase strength and durability. Stabilization with cement is a common treatment technology. The present study examines the strength of cement stabilized soil. The laboratory tests were carried out in order to study the strength of california bearing ratio CBR . Nine clayey soils with different properties were mixed with various amounts of cement content 3, 6, 9 and 12 and compacted at the optimum moisture content and maximum dry density. Soaked or unsoaked condition of soil affects the CBR value. The test results show that unsoaked CBR before stabilization ranges between 2.78 and 10.22 which that of its corresponding soaked samples range between 1.01 and 9.5 . After stabilization, the values of unsoaked CBR range between 3.08 and 47 . The maximum values of unsoaked CBR are within 10.8 to 47 . So it can be used as sub base condition. The conventional CBR testing method is expensive and time consuming. The laboratory test results were used for the development of regression based model to predict unsoaked and soaked CBR values for natural and cement stabilized soil.

Win-Win business ethics engagement and corruption reform methods
No full textNo abstractThere has been comparatively less work done on how to effectively engage with and reform unethical and corrupt behaviors in business world; behaviors that can be both legal and illegal. According to the author, however, the research that has been done is very encouraging. Effective business ethics methods can be very profitable and sustainable. Effective business ethics methods can be learned and taught. Further, effective business ethics methods can help cause and stimulate better and greater socioeconomic development. In this paper, the author first considers nine types of effective business ethics engagement and corruption reform methods. Second, he examines in some detail six win-win methods with real case examples. Third, theoretical foundations for win-win methods and why win-win ethical business practices and relationships are profitable and sustainable are considered. Fourth, he discusses strengths and limitations of win-win methods. For the author, win-win methods can help facilitate ethical and mutually prosperous association

Edge contraction and cop-win critical graphs
No full textThe problem is to determine the number of ‘cops’ needed to capture a ‘robber’ where the game is played with perfect information, the different sides moving alternately. The cops capture the robber when one of them occupies the same vertex as the robber at any time in the game. A copwin graph is one in which one cop can always capture the robber. A graph is cop-win edge-critical with respect to edge contraction (CECC) when the original graph is not cop-win, but the contraction of any edge results in a cop-win graph. In this paper, classes of CECC graphs are determined, and k-regular CECC are characterized for k ≤ 4
Strategic Corporate Negotiations: A framework for Win-Win agreements
No full textExploring the concept of win-win agreements, this book analyses how they pose an important challenge for entrepreneurs, managers and advisors involved in complex negotiations among firms. Providing an overview and discussion of existing literature, the author further develops a theoretical framework for analysing corporate negotiations, and illustrates how this can be implemented in real-life situations. This book presents an empirical case study from the automotive industry and analyses the negotiation between Fiat Chrysler in 2009, offering practical strategies for those involved in corporate negotiations. Presenting how win-win agreements can improve competitive advantage, this book will be an invaluable read for practitioners and scholars alike.</p

Target tracking using webcams
No full textWith rapid proliferation of video cameras in public places and ever decreasing price/performance ratio of computing, the ability to identify and track people creates tremendous opportunities for important business and security applications. This report presents a sub-project of the Multiple Camera Indoor Surveillance system. In this project, two webcams are connected to a computer in which C language platform with OpenCV libraries (open source) are installed and knowledge based techniques are used to track and localize a person in a predetermined area.
Using built-in Haar-like feature detection classifiers in OpenCV, we can identify human faces and subtract them out of the background which is normally unchanged and is really not of interest. Haar-like features encode some information about the class (face in this project) to be detected using the existence of oriented contrasts between regions in the image.Bachelor of Engineerin
