Complexity of challenges associated with water resources management is increasing due to factors such as climate variability and uncertainty, increased regulatory requirements, changes in planning horizons, and trans-boundary considerations.

Both concepts have a history reaching back decades, but have been facing difficulties in their transfer from theory into practice. There is a clear need to look in more detail at the process of tran

This thesis explores the use of scientific knowledge in policy-making. It is widely recognised that use of natural resources, such as water, is unsustainable across much of the world.

This research is centred on a comparative case study analysis of the use of science in water resource management policies for Southeast Queensland, Australia.

Knowledge management (KM) is distinguished deductively by know-how, and its intangible nature establishes different approaches to KM concepts, practices, and developments.

Fishery resources are in principle renewable, but modern fisheries are typically characterised by excessive fishing effort, fleet overcapacity, illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) fishing along with deficient governance. This has led to growing trends of unsustainability. Fisheries management is a social and political process which aims to regulate human activities within the constraints of the biological ecosystem in which it operates. But the incorporation of sustainability into fishery practices around the world has to date generally failed. In this thesis I explore the relationship b

One of the biggest challenges in contemporary global environmental governance is the future of marine biodiversity. Over the years, increased fishing efforts in previously remote areas drove many fish stocks to scarcity. The Regional Fisheries Management Organizations (RFMOs) emerged to solve the international fishery crisis, on the assumption that they would provide a forum where Member States may agree and discuss binding rules for the conservation and management of fish stocks within its geographical area of responsibility.

Abstract:

The dominant role of social networking in the web is turning human relations into conduits of information flow. This means that the way information spreads on the web is determined to a large extent by human decisions. Consequently, information security, confidentiality and integrity of shared data, relies on the quality of the collective decisions made by the users. Recently, many access control schemes have been proposed to control unauthorized propagation and modification of information in online systems; however, there is still a need for mechanisms to evaluate the risk of information leak

Abstract:

<p>Knowledge Management has been the subject of increasing focus over the last several years. Literature and research on the topic has grown as companies and organizations have come to realize that success is often determined by one's ability to create, disseminate, and embody knowledge in products and services. This realization has led to increased interest in examining the ways in which knowledge can be effectively created, identified, codified, disseminated, and retained. The field of Knowledge Management has emerged to address this need.<p>One of the obstacles that Knowledge Management see

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to describe how journalists do research for their articles and whether there is a need to create a knowledge bank of the material that journalists use for writing these articles. I also looked at how knowledge management could be used at a daily newspaper to add value to the information used by the journalists. The thesis is based on four interviews with journalists, a literature review and a practical project. I helped a journalist with his information seeking and later tried to organize the material. This project gave me an understanding of how varying the mater

Abstract:

Online identities play critical roles in the current Internet world. One of the virtues of traditional online identities, in forms of pseudonyms, is the privacy protection of online users. Users can create as many anonymous identities as they want with only an email account. However, the anonymity itself could be a limitation because of the lack of accountability.The prevalence of online social networks inspires us to create a social pseudonym framework through which it is possible to determine proximity between pseudonyms while retaining privacy. The basic idea of this work is mapping the on

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Die Suid-Afrikaanse regering en sy organisasies en instellings, net soos ander internasionale state, word gekonfronteer met uitdagings om hul bates te bestuur, soos onder andere data, inligting, kennis, mense en prosesse. Hierdie uitdagings tel onder die faktore wat dienslewering negatief beinvloed. Alhoewel die Departement van Behuising ongeveer twee miljoen en sewe honderd duisend huise gelewer het, sedert 1994 was daar nog steeds uitdagings. Gepaardgaande met swak dienslewering, het die Departement ook gesukkel om bates s

Abstract:

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Most people working in the software industry recognise that developing software to predictable schedules is risky and not easy. They experience problems to estimate how long the development of software will take. Underestimation leads to under staffing and setting too short a schedule. That in turn leads to staff burnout, low quality and missed deadlines. Overestimation can be almost as bad: Parkinson's Law that work expands to fill available time comes into action, which means the project will take as long as estimated even if overestimated. Currently people do no put in muc

Abstract:

<p> Global scale identity management attempts to be the system of identifying and authenticating entities such as people, hardware devices, distributed sensors and actuators, and software applications when accessing critical information technology (IT) systems from anywhere. The term global-scale is intended to emphasize the pervasive nature of identities and implies the existence of identities in federated systems that may be beyond the control of any single organization. The purpose of this research was to analyze the current state of Global Scale Identity Management. Today, news of security
