Abstract:

The tutorial examines the primary tasks that arise when developing large software projects involving hundreds of developers. The complexity of software is its essential and non—accidental property. The development technology is influenced by various factors, including design problems, the impact of economics, the impact of politics, and lack of imagination. Reducing the risks of reducing the success or even failure of large-scale developments is possible by using an architectural approach to software design based on defining global constraints imposed on system design, such as the choice of pr

Abstract:

This chapter suggests that human beings have two motivational systems—the egosystem, which promotes self-centered, self-interested, and egoistic behaviors, and the ecosystem, which promotes connecting to and caring for others—and describes their characteristic features. Egosystem motivation involves self-image goals, zero-sum views of the relation between self and others, and feeling “at the mercy” of others. Ecosystem motivation involves compassionate goals, non-zero-sum views of the relation between self and others, and feeling “at the source.” The two systems are negatively related, so that

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the three most widely used remuneration systems for general practitioners (GPs): fee-for-service, capitation, and salary. Each system has its pros and cons, so in practice some sort of blended system would often be chosen. A concern with the fee-for-service system is that it might make doctors provide too many services, that is, supplier-induced demand. Capitation breaks the link between payment and amount of services provided by giving the GP a fixed fee for each patient registered on the list. This system may lead GPs to selectively attract healthy patients and make un

The remainder of the book is concerned to show that an institutional normative system is not reasonably contrived to do anything that law must be able to do for us to make sen

This article reviews comparative research on electoral systems and voting behavior, identifying analytical gaps in the tactical voting literature. It starts by examining the core assumptions underpinning the classic approach to tactical voting. It then displays some empirical data about the estimates of this behavior reported in the literature. Contrasting experiences of theoretical and methodological issues in majoritarian and non-majoritarian systems are discussed. Focusing on some difficulties in the application of the “avoiding wasted vote” motivations under PR and mixed-member rules, the

Although critics view participants’ financial needs as dominating their social concerns, participants themselves are acutely aware of their relational needs.

Skeletal muscle weakness affecting the respiratory and peripheral muscles is common in critically ill patients and can lead to difficulties in weaning, prolonged ICU admission, and significant morbidity in survivors. A number of techniques can be used to assess muscle strength. In the peripheral muscles, volitional techniques employing scoring systems or portable hand dynamometers are relatively simple and quick to use, requiring little or no specialist equipment. Such techniques can, however, only be applied to conscious and cooperative patients, preventing assessment of muscle weakness in ma

Awards can also give rise to signalling failures. They have to be used with moderation, and they can rarely be substituted for money where money is already in place.

It thus objectifies the polis as a disenchanted, functionally differentiated terrain inhabited by natural, pre-social individuals.
