Full textAbstract:
The diploma thesis addresses the influence of building work carried out on the family house and the comparison of this influence in various localities. The theoretical part defines the basic terms from professional literature and legislation. A family house prior to reconstruction in the town of Bolera-dice was selected and then two other similar sites of the municipality of Hostěradice and the town of Koryčany. In the practical part, the customary prices were calculated before reconstruction. The reconstruction of the house was projected and the costs of construction work were calculated using an itemised budget. By means of a database of real estate properties after reconstruction, the prices of similar real estate properties after the reconstruction were established. The conclusion of the the-sis presents a comparison and analysis of the results at individual sites, and thus fulfils the objective of the thesis by determining the impact of construction work on the family house and comparing this in different locations.

Yin, Fei. "Robust wide-area multi-camera tracking of people and vehicles to improve CCTV usage." Thesis, Kingston University, 2011. http://eprints.kingston.ac.uk/20315/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis describes work towards a more advanced multiple camera tracking system. This work was sponsored by BARCO who had developed a motion tracker (referred to as the BARCO tracker) and wanted to assess its performance, improve the tracker and explore applications especially for multi-camera systems. The overall requirement then gave rise to specific work in this project: Two trackers (the BARCO tracker and OpenCV 1.0 blobtracker) are tested using a set of datasets with a range of challenges, and their performances are quantitatively evaluated and compared. Then, the BARCO tracker has been further improved by adding three new modules: ghost elimination, shadow removal and improved Kalman filter. Afterwards, the improved tracker is used as part of a multi-camera tracking system. Also, automatic camera calibration methods are proposed to effectively calibrate a network of cameras with minimum manual support (draw lines features in the scene image) and a novel scene modelling method is proposed to overcome the limitations of previous methods. The main contributions of this work to knowledge are listed as follows: A rich set of track based metrics is proposed which allows the user to quantitatively identify specific strengths and weaknesses of an object tracking system, such as the performance of specific modules of the system or failures under specific conditions. Those metrics also allow the user to measure the improvements that have been applied to a tracking system and to compare performance of different tracking methods. For single camera tracking, new modules have been added to the BARCO tracker to improve the tracking performance and prevent specific tracking failures. A novel method is proposed by the author to identify and remove ghost objects. Another two methods are adopted from others to reduce the effect of shadow and improve the accuracy of tracking. For multiple camera tracking, a quick and efficient method is proposed for automatically calibrating multiple cameras into a single view map based on homography mapping. Then, vertical axis based approach is used to fuse detections from single camera views and Kalman filter is employed to track objects on the ground plane. Last but not least, a novel method is proposed to automatically learn a 3D non-coplanar scene model (e.g. multiple levels, stairs, and overpass) by exploiting the variation of pedestrian heights within the scene. Such method will extend the applicability of the existing multi-camera tracking algorithm to a larger variety of environments: both indoors and outdoors where objects (pedestrians and/or vehicles) are not constrained to move on a single flat ground plane.

Shueb, Saleh Saber. "Crop identification and area estimation through the combined use of satellite and field data for county Durham, northern England." Thesis, Durham University, 1990. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/6229/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis investigates the use of combined field and satellite data for crop identification and area estimation in County Durham, Northeast England. The satellite data were obtained by the Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor onboard Landsat-5 on 31 May 1985. The TM data were geometrically corrected to the British National Grid and the county boundaries were digitized in order to apply the methodology used in this study on a county basis. The field data were obtained by applying a stratified random sampling strategy. The area was subdivided into five main strata and forty four 1km(_^2) sample units were randomly chosen and fully surveyed by the author using a pre-prepared questionnaire. The field area measurements were taken and the final hectarage estimates were obtained for each crop. The research demonstrated the ability of Landsat-TM data to discriminate between agricultural crops in the study area. Results obtained emphasised that satellite data can be used for identification of agricultural crops over large geographic areas with small field sizes and different environmental and physical features. A land-cover classification system appropriate to the study area was designed. Using the Landsat-TM data, the study produced a classification map of thirteen land-cover types with more than 80% accuracy. The classification accuracy was assessed quantitatively by using the known land-use information obtained from the sample units visited during the field survey. The study analysed the factors which influenced the degree of separability between different agricultural crops since some crops were more clearly identified than others. Using a double sampling method based on the combination of both Landsat- TM and field data in regression analysis, a hectarage estimate was produced for each crop type in County Durham. The results obtained showed that the regression estimator was always more efficient than the field estimator. Crop area estimated by regression reduced the imprecision in all strata and was more efficient in some strata than others. This indicated that a gain in precision was achieved by using Landsat- TM in conjunction with the field data. The results illustrated that stratification based on an environmental criterion was an efficient approach as far as the the application of agricultural remote sensing in County Durham is concerned. The stratified approach allowed each stratum to be analysed separately, thereby lessening the reliance on cloud free imagery for the whole county on any given date. Furthermore, the results obtained by this study suggest that it is possibile to link remote sensing data with existing county based information systems on agricultural and land-use.

"Soil-water use and irrigation scheduling under fruit tree-turf alley cropping system in Hawkesbury Area." THESIS_CSTE_EAG_Hasnat_A.xml, 2003. http://handle.uws.edu.au:8081/1959.7/614.
Full textAbstract:
Efficient use of irrigation and nutrients are becoming increasingly important in commercial orchards in the Hawkesbury area. Proper irrigation scheduling practices can help in the better use of irrigation water and reduce environmental impacts. Field experiments were conducted during February 1999 to June 2000 to understand soil-water use, and to evaluate farmer’s irrigation practice under an alley cropping system consisting of turf and stone fruits. The study was carried out at Atlas Farm, 3.5 km from the University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury campus. The experimental site is a floodplain of the Hawkesbury River. The river flows within 1 km of the farm boundaries. The study was conducted under the farmer’s existing irrigation water and nutrient management practices. The main aims of the thesis were to study the movement and redistribution of soil-water and soil-moisture dynamics in the turf and stone fruit alley cropping system and to understand deep percolation losses and nitrogen leaching using the water balance approach. The study indicated that drainage occurred mainly after heavy rainfall and when there was rainfall for a few consecutive days. Thus irrigation application should be delayed if there is a likelihood of rain in a few consecutive days to prevent loss of water due to deep drainage. Furthermore, the study showed irrigation scheduling was essential to reduce nitrate leaching in the field; that irrigation depths should be varied according to the stage of crop growth, and the proper timing of irrigation application could help reduce deep percolation and runoff losses.Master of Science (Hons) (Agriculture)

Full textAbstract:
The nesting demographics of sea turtles using beaches within the Barrow, Lowendal,
Montebello (B-L-M) island complex on the North West Shelf of Western Australia were
examined in the context of their spatial and temporal distribution and potential for
exposure to industrially based artificial light sources. The distribution of overnight turtle
tracks throughout the island complex confirmed high density nesting of Chelonia mydas
(green turtles) on deep, sandy and high energy beaches and Natator depressus
(flatback turtles) on deep, sandy and low energy beaches, while Eretmochelys
imbricata (hawksbill turtle) tracks were most visible on shallow, sandy beaches
adjacent to near shore coral reef habitat. The three species exhibited a summer
nesting peak. Hawksbill turtles commenced nesting in September and continued
through to January, green turtles commenced in November and decreased in March.
Flatback turtles displayed the most constrained nesting season reported to date in
Australia with 86% of the animals visits recorded in December and January only.
Nesting population sizes estimated for the three species suggest that on a national
scale the B-L-M complex is a moderately large green turtle and a large flatback rookery
site. The hawksbill rookery is large on an international scale. While none of the green
turtle nesting beaches fell within a 1.5 km radius of industrially based artificial light
sources an estimated 42% of nesting flatback turtles and 12% of nesting hawksbill
turtles were potentially exposed to these light sources.
Testing of green turtle and hawksbill hatchling response to different wavelengths of
light indicate that hatchlings from the B-L-M region respond to low wavelength much
like hatchlings tested in North America (Witherington 1992a). Flatback hatchlings
displayed a similar preference for low wavelength light however their responses to
discrete light wavelengths between 400 nm and 700 nm suggest that this species may
not discriminate well between wavelengths that lie between 450 nm and 550 nm. This
response may be related to the rapid attenuation of visible light that occurs in the turbid
near shore habitats favoured by this species.
Field based arena studies carried out to investigate hatchling behaviour on nesting
beaches with light types commonly used in industrial settings found green turtle and
flatback hatchlings are significantly attracted to these lights compared to controls.
Lights that emit strongly in the low wavelength range (i.e. metal halide and fluorescent)
caused hatchling misorientation at lower intensities than the test light that emitted
relatively poorly in this range (high pressure sodium vapour). Hawksbill hatchlings
tested in situ under the influence of actual oil and gas onshore and offshore facility
based lighting were disrupted from the most direct line to the ocean by these light
emissions. Emergence fan mapping methods that measure hatchling orientation on
nesting beaches were refined and are proposed as an alternative monitoring tool for
use on beaches that are logistically difficult to access for large scale experimental
orientation studies. The hatchling behaviour was clearly complicated by beach
topography and moon phase.
Satellite tracking of post nesting female green and hawksbill turtles from North West
Shelf rookeries has identified the Western Australian location of migratory corridors and
foraging grounds for these species while Scott Reef turtles migrate from their south
Timor Sea rookery to Northern Territory waters. Green turtle nesting on Barrow Island
and Sandy Island (Scott Reef) forage at feeding grounds 200 1000 km from their
nesting beaches. Hawksbill turtles nesting at Varanus Island and Rosemary Islands
forage at locations 50 450 km from their nesting beaches. While all of the nesting
beaches within the B-L-M island complex are protected under the Barrow-Montebello
Marine Conservation Reserves, the only foraging ground similarly protected is the
Northern Territory foraging ground used by Scott Reef green turtles. None of the
foraging grounds used by North West Shelf green or hawksbill turtles is currently
protected by conservation reserves.

Full textAbstract:
Emergency response agencies that need to care for large crowds in real-life events, report a constant
lack in human volunteers in large numbers for training purposes. Moreover, existing computerized
training aides either totally omit affected crowds in their scenarios, or represent them as computer
generated models. A potential solution that can provide real human input in large numbers for
training purposes can be found in the form of Massive Multi-user Online Role-Playing computer
Games (MMORPGs) that attract millions of users on a daily basis.
In order to evaluate the use of MMORPGs as an emergency simulation platform I had to examine
the in-game behaviour of participants, usability issues, data collection methods, and data reliability. I
did so by constructing a multi-user computer game that included food shortage and a pandemic
spread scenarios. Data collected included every possible item that could be technically logged, both
qualitative (questionnaires, user’s self tagging of events) and quantitative (all in-game actions and
their coordinates, players and virtual environment in-game status).
The abundance of data enabled easy triangulation and verification. The main findings were:
participants attention span was about 90 minutes, they demonstrated only a narrow range of
behaviours necessary for their in-game survival, and this behaviour followed loosely real life
behaviour patterns. Usability wise participants ignored interface components and in-game tasks that
interfered with their game flow. Data reliability: unlike other methods that rely solely on participants
accounts, the game had the ability to compare between actions to questionnaire answers, and was
able to detect inconsistencies between people’s actions within the game and their accounts of their
actions. The ability to create spatial maps of event types enabled a fast way to visually analyze data.
The research concludes that MMORPGs can be used as an emergency simulation platform if: 1) its
duration fits the participants’ attention span (as a result aspects of human behaviour that happen over
a prolonged period of time will not be demonstrated); 2) the demographic composition of
participants fits that of the population examined by the simulation; 3) participants should be properly
reimbursed for their time; 4) it is known that participants’ in-game behaviour might be negatively
influenced by lack of real-life experience of similar events; 5) in-game rules and mechanisms are set
to filter out game abuse; 6) preliminary sessions are run to determine ideal attention span and data
skewing factor.

The first one aimed at qualitative and quantitative assessment of vegetation and consisted of the following: name of the green area, its location, its altitude, the vegetation in that area, the size and density of vegetation, soil cover, the conditions for relief , physical and health of vegetation, type of occupation of the nearby landscape and quality of parks, the parks and the cemetery park. The second form aimed to make the lifting of quantitative and qualitative aspects of equipment and structures in each street addresses. Accordding to the results found the lack of infrastructure and lack of criteria adopted in the spatial distribution of the squares, and the neglect of the public, about the replacement of equipment and facilities to be located in squares, whichever the greater investment in the central part and in the absence periphery. As the squares of the predominant vegetation and tree trick in 49.03%, then, the squares formed by the vegetation... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Full textAbstract:
Depuis le milieu des années 2000, le champ lexical du discours public de défense et de légitimation du pastoralisme pyrénéen s’est enrichi de notions « empruntées » aux sciences économiques et aux arènes de discussion internationales. Le pastoralisme est depuis lors qualifié de producteur « d’externalités » par certains agents de développement pastoral et représentants de la profession agricole. Le cœur de ce travail de recherche-action est d’interroger l’irruption de ce nouveau paradigme à une échelle locale, en analysant la manière dont les usagers de l’espace montagnard eux-mêmes appréhendent les effets multiples du pastoralisme sur leurs espaces de pratiques. Malgré son utilité potentielle pour la justification d’une action publique dirigée spécifiquement vers l’activité pastorale, l’utilisation de la notion d’externalités en tant que catégorie analytique ne permet pas d’appréhender la réalité des rapports entre la multiplicité d’acteurs investis dans l’utilisation et dans la gouvernance des estives pyrénéennes. En revanche, le recours à une approche relationnelle des effets du pastoralisme permet de reconnecter ces phénomènes à leur contexte spatial, social et temporel d’émergence, mais aussi de faire apparaître la place des acteurs et des organisations locales dans la régulation de la coprésence et des nouvelles proximités. A l’échelle locale, l’étude des effets multiples du pastoralisme renvoie ainsi aux thématiques du multi-usage de l’espace montagnard et à l’action collective des acteurs divers impliqués dans sa gestion et dans son utilisation. La capitalisation et l’interprétation des modalités de gestion collective innovantes des estives ainsi que le transfert des connaissances fondamentales et méthodologiques peuvent alors inciter les acteurs du développement à une prise en compte plus intégrée de l’élargissement et de la complexification de l’espace social constitué par les estives pyrénéennesSince the early 2000’s, the political discourse about defense and legitimization of pastoralism has contained economical terms. Some agriculture representatives and development agents qualify pastoralism as an « externalities producer ». This action-research aims at questioning the appearance of this new paradigm on the local scale by studying the manner by which mountain space users themselves consider the multiple effects of pastoralism on their spaces and practices. Despite their potential utility to justify a specific public action directed to pastoral activity, “externalities” used as an analytical category don’t allow to understand the links between the multiple stakeholders invested in pastures utilization and governance. On the other hand, relational approach of pastoralism multiple effects enables to reconnect these phenomena to their spatial, social and temporal context of emergence. This theoretical approach also reveals the position of local stakeholders and organizations in the proximity regulation. Studying pastoralism multiple effects on the local scale refers to multiple-use of mountain areas and to collective action of those who use and manage Pyrenean pastures. Capitalization and interpretation of innovative forms of governance, but also transfer of scientific and methodological knowledge can lead development agents to a better consideration of the enlargement and the complexification of the social space constituted by Pyrenean pastures

Full textAbstract:
Le paludisme est un des maladies vectorielles les plus communes qui est situé principalement dans les régions tropicales. La zone étudiée est la région transfrontière Guyane française-Brésil. Le niveau et la dynamique intra-annuelle de la transmission y sont variables, avec un taux d’incidence qui est relativement élevé dans l’Amérique du Sud. Les facteurs environnementaux, en particulier l'occupation et l'usage du sol, influent significativement sur la présence, la densité et la distribution spatiale des moustiques du genre Anophèles, vecteurs de la maladie. Les données sur l'environnement, la population et les systèmes de santé sont rarement comparables de part et d’autre de la frontière Guyane-Brésil, excluant une vision bilatérale homogène. La télédétection permet de caractériser spatialement l’environnement de manière quasi continue et complète. L’objectif de ce travail est de caractériser par télédétection des milieux favorables au développement des vecteurs et les interactions hommes-vecteurs pour la zone transfrontalière Guyane-Brésil. Un indicateur spatialisé d’aléa de transmission du paludisme a été développé à l’échelle locale. Il permet de spatialiser la contribution de l'interaction entre milieux forestiers et non-forestiers sur la transmission du paludisme. Ce modèle a été mis en œuvre à l’échelle de la région amazonienne. Cet indice permet de quantifier et d’expliquer l’influence du paysage dans les interrelations homme - vecteurs adultes. L’identification des gîtes larvaires potentiels a été testée à une échelle régionale, à partir de la fusion d’images satellites optiques et radar, afin de mettre en évidence la distribution spatiale de zones humides pérennes et de grandes tailles (lacs, rivières, étangs, etc.) et les interfaces avec les milieux urbaines et forestiers. La distribution et la densité des vecteurs sont affectées par les propriétés physiques et chimiques des gîtes larvaires potentiels qui sont liées à la typologie des sols. Un modèle conceptuel de l’évaluation des sols adapté à la zone amazonienne présente que les caractéristiques géomorphologiques (altitude, courbure, etc.) sont indicateurs de l’évolution des sols. Une typologie des sols a été réalisée à l’échelle régionale à partir de données altimétriques et de ce modèle conceptuel. Les méthodologies, les cartes d’occupation et d’usage du sol, les cartes d’aléa du paludisme mises en place dans le cadre de cette thèse seront intégrés à l’Observatoire transfrontalier (Guyane-Brésil) qui est en cours de création. Ce travail de thèse contribue ainsi à l’exploitation des nouvelles connaissances sur le mécanisme de transmission du paludisme qui peuvent être utilisées pour définir les nouvelles stratégies de prévention aux échelles locale et régionaleMalaria remains one of the most common vector-borne diseases what is predominantly located in the tropics. The study area is the cross-border area between French Guiana and Brazil where the level and intra-annuel dynamic of malaria transmission are variable, with the incidence rates which are relatively high in South America. The environmental risk factors, in particular, land use and land cover, significantly influence the presence, density and spatial distribution of disease vectors, Anopheles mosquitoes. Environmental information, population data and health systems database are rarely comparable on both sides of the Guyana-Brazil border which exclude the homogeneous and bilateral vision. Remote sensing permits to spatially characterize the environment on both sides of the border in an almost continuous and complete manner. The objective of this study is to characterize the favorable environment for the development of vectors and the vector-human interaction in the cross-border area between French Guiana and Brazil using remote sensing. A spatial landscape-based hazard index of malaria transmission was developed at the local scale. Such index allows spatializing the contribution of interaction between forest and non-forest areas on malaria transmission which was then implemented in the entire Amazon region. It quantifies and explains the influence of landscape on the interaction between human population and adult vectors. The identification of potential breeding sites of vectors was tested on a regional scale using the optical and SAR fusion for highlighting the spatial distribution of perennial and large wetlands (lakes, rivers, ponds etc.) and the interfaces with urban and forest environments. The distribution of vectors’ density is affected by physical and chemical properties of potential breeding sites which are related to soil typology. A conceptual model of soil evolution adapted to the Amazon region presents that geomorphological characteristics (altitude, curvature, etc.) are indicators of soil evolution. A soil classification was realized at the regional scale using altimetry data and the conceptual model. The methods, land use and land cover and malaria hazard maps established in this thesis will be integrated in the Observatory Sentinel of cross-border which is being built. This study also contributes to the exploitation of new knowledge about malaria transmission mechanism which can be used to define novel prevention strategies at the local and regional scales

The main purpose of the study was to investigate the library needs
and library usage of external students in remote areas. The study emphasised
external students' perception of their own library needs. Four distinct areas
of research evolved from the purpose of the study: to identify the library
service needs of external students; to identify library use by external
students; to identify external students' perceptions of library needs; and to
identify student status in relation to library use.
Information was collected by an interview with former external
students, a questionnaire to the libraries involved in the study and by
Nominal Group Technique (NGT) sessions with external students. The
primary instrument was a questionnaire to the external students in the
population under investigation requesting information of their library
usage and needs.
The population under investigation were external students enrolledin the South Australian College of Advanced Education (SACAE) and
resident in Whyalla, South Australia. It was decided to survey the total
population rather than a sample because of the small numbers involved.
Thirty-five responses were received out of a population of 52, representing a
response rate of 69 percent.
The results of the survey were analysed using a Statview SE statistical
package and a spreadsheet and graphics package, Excel. Frequency
distributions were computed to determine the number of respondents who
selected each option.
The study found that the external students who used libraries tended
to use a variety of libraries. Students used not only their own institution's
library, but the a range of libraries accessible to them in Whyalla.
The study concludes by identifying issues, recommending possible
solutions, and identifying areas for further research.

The use of technology in assisting educators to use student data in well-devised ways to enhance the instruction received by students is gaining headway and the support of federal dollars across the nation. Since research has not provided insight as to whether or not reading coaches are using data technology tools with teachers, this mixed methods study sought to examine what behavioral intentions reading coaches have in using data technology tools with teachers, what variables may influence their behavioral intentions, and what trends may emerge in their views about using technology data tools with teachers. A mixed methods approach was deployed via a survey embedded in an email, and data from 61 Florida reading coaches from elementary, middle, and high schools in a large urban school district were examined using an adaptation of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The results showed that collectively all reading coaches have a high level of behavioral intentions towards using a data technology tool with teachers. The study also showed that elementary, middle, and high school reading coaches vary in their degree of behavioral intentions in using a data technology tool based on different variables. Trends in data showed that reading coaches think data technology tools are helpful, but that trainings are needed and that technology tools should be user-friendly. Discussion is provided regarding the implications of the study results for all stakeholders.ID: 031001470; System requirements: World Wide Web browser and PDF reader.; Mode of access: World Wide Web.; Adviser: .; Title from PDF title page (viewed July 11, 2013).; Thesis (Ed.D.)--University of Central Florida, 2012.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 105-115).

Car usage is determined by several facts, e.g. living conditions determined by geographical matters. There is a political will to control car usage with different kinds of incentives since car usage generates environmental problems. This essay analyses the differences between car usage in urban areas as opposed to thinly populated areas in Sweden and their significance on governmental incentives. By using statistics differences in car ownership during ten years between thinly populated areas, areas in the countryside and urban areas is studied. Among other things living conditions determined by geographical matters that can explain the differences and problems with fuel taxes and road pricing is being discussed in the analyse.

Full textAbstract:
Pour planifier le devenir d'un territoire, il est classique de projeter l'évolution de l'usage du sol et du système de transport. La projection est fondée sur le principe que les lieux d'activités, selon leurs fonctions urbaines respectives, sont en relations de complémentarité : cette complémentarité induit des besoins de déplacements, lesquels se concrétisent en des flux de transport. Souvent les projections sont réalisées de manière séparée par grand domaine, occupation des sols d'une part et transport de l'autre, or il y a des interactions. La politique polycentrique poursuivie depuis plus d'une génération en région francilienne part de cette volonté de répartition spatiale optimale des activités humaines avec la création des Villes Nouvelles. Leur localisation dans des zones préférentielles d'extension urbaine desservies par des axes structurants de transports devait apporter une cohérence d'ensemble à la région urbaine et contribuer efficacement à une meilleure gestion des flux de déplacements à la fois en termes de structure géographique, pour limiter la congestion en direction du centre, et de répartition modale en faveur des transports collectifs. L'analyse récente des données d'occupation des sols comme celle des comportements de mobilité tend à confirmer que l'Ile-de- France reste encore caractérisée par une forme urbaine à dominante monocentrique. Le niveau de masse et de centralité défini dans le schéma initial d'aménagement n'a pas été atteint pour les " centres urbains nouveaux ", la dépendance au cœur de l'agglomération est toujours vérifiée, et la voiture particulière reste privilégiée comme mode de déplacement. Pour vérifier la capacité de la forme urbaine polycentrique à favoriser une mobilité durable, notre thèse prospecte deux partis d'aménagement pour la période 2004-2030, tous deux favorisant la densification de l'agglomération mais l'un de manière homogène et l'autre de manière ciblée, orientant davantage la localisation des activités humaines dans les grands pôles d'urbanisation. Dans cet objectif, nous avons simulé de manière intégrée l'usage du sol et les transports en mobilisant le modèle d'offre de transport et de demande de déplacements de la DRIEA-IDF, et une méthode de projection démographique spatialisée basée sur le modèle OMPHALE de l'INSEE et ajoutant une focalisation par sous-ensemble territorial. Dans ces conditions, nous avons montré que l'évolution démographique prévue d'ici 2030, canalisée dans l'espace selon une logique de densification, devrait permettre un renforcement de la centralité urbaine dans les grands pôles d'aménagement que sont les Villes Nouvelles, avec une intensification de la cohérence urbaine entre les domiciles et les emplois, une réduction des distances moyennes entre domicile et travail, une proportion accrue de déplacements effectués par des modes non motorisés, et une amélioration de la performance territoriale des réseaux de transport. Ces effets seraient plus forts avec le scénario de densification ciblée qu'avec celui de densification homogène. Les transformations dans la structure des interactions spatiales et dans les besoins de déplacement, couplées au développement programmé des réseaux routiers et collectifs de transport , mais confrontées à l'accroissement démographique, sembleraient permettre de maintenir la qualité de service pour les modes individuels de transport. Cette stabilisation reposerait notamment sur un recours accru aux voies rapides urbaines. Dans le scénario de densification ciblée, l'emprise du trafic routier sur le reste du réseau pourrait même décroître quelque peu dans certains secteurs, permettant de mieux y répartir la capacité viaire en faveur des circulations douces. Le développement démographique et le maintien de la qualité de service en transport concourraient à améliorer non seulement les centralités secondaires donc l'accessibilité dans un cadre de proximité, mais encore les effectifs de population susceptibles d'atteindre une destination en un temps limité, ou le nombre d'emplois pouvant être visés depuis un lieu de domicile.

In the past, Taiwan ignored the importance of river ecology and instead focused on flood control and the utilization and development of rivers in order to protect the safety of its citizens, their property, and public facilities. As a result, the natural habitat of river organisms has gradually deteriorated, and bio-diversity of rivers has been severely impacted. In recent years, however, ecological conservation has emerged as an issue of increasing significance. How to maintain the volume of river water required by organisms for survival and create a suitable habitat are vital concerns in the environmental management of rivers. The river segment researched in this study was the Daqi Bridge segment in the upstream area of Wu River. The research methods were as follows: River 2D was used as the main computational software. This model was combined with on-site surveys, WinGrid, and HEC-RAS to construct a digital elevation model (DEM) of the Daqi Bridge segment. Data on catchment area, constant flow, and annual peak-flow frequency were used as a basis for simulation. The simulations were used to investigate how Habitat diversity (H’) under artificial structures affects the weighted usable area (WUA) of Rhinogobius candidianus and Acrossocheilus paradoxus, and examines the relationships among these elements. Research findings were as follows: 1.Under constant flow, the Habitat diversity (H’) of the original river stretch was 0.47; following the construction of three spur dikes, Habitat diversity (H’) was reduced to 0.41. The value of Habitat diversity (H’) was 0.39 after the construction of a 1m river weir and 0.26 after the construction of a 2m river weir. The main reason for these phenomena is that the addition of these structures led to an increase in deep pools of water and reduced shallow streams. This made the river environment less diverse, which was not beneficial to the organisms that were the subjects of this study. 2.The simulation results of the River 2D showed that construction of spur dikes not only deflected the current away from the river banks but also reduced flow velocity surrounding the dikes. This provides a protective area during periods of flooding. Under a constant flow, the construction of a 2m river weir produced optimal WUA; within a 5 cms flow, construction of a 1m river weir also produced optimal WUA. Under a flow of 100 cm or more, the significant increase in flow meant that the WUA of the original river conditions was improved. Within a 10-year return period, constructing three spur dikes can produce optimal WUA. 3.Results showed that the increased water level caused by high river flow had submerged the sandbars and thickets originally on the river shore. However, the flow velocity in this new region of water was still lower than that of the main riverbed, which created the possibility of its development as a new habitat. 4.Simulation results showed that higher Habitat diversity (H’) implied higher WUA. However, the flow rate affects the distribution of flow conditions. Under different flow conditions, Habitat diversity (H’) may still be similar. For example, when Habitat diversity (H’) was 0.5 under original river conditions, the WUA of Rhinogobius candidianus showed a maximum-minimum difference of approximately 300 m2. 5.In the four simulation cases, the linear relationship between WUA and Habitat diversity (H’) was the most significant under a 1m river weir. After the construction of a 2m weir, the habitat diversity was reduced and Habitat diversity (H’) decreased, which resulted in a non-linear relationship between WUA and Habitat diversity (H’).

The main purpose of training and education in working fields is for us to gain the related abilities that we need in working place. The research mainly focuses on the effects of product knowledge and sales skills work training and education on working performance. Basing on 160 effective questionnaire samples, we adopt the way of hierarchical regression analyses to validate the effects of product knowledge and sales skills work training and education on working performance. As the result of demonstration shows, that product knowledge and sales skills work training and education have notable effects. The choice and use of basic training and education on sales skills and product knowledge are both very important. These two kinds of training can positively affect working performance. So both kinds of training should be made regularly in employees’ working life in order to make better work performance. Since work performance has a positive correlation with the degree of both kinds of training and education. The result of demonstration also proves that both kinds of training in pharmaceutical factory are necessary, at the same time, it would be better for employees to get the training at some relaxing places. This research presents the conclusion and recommendations.

This article serves to compare and discuss how changes took place in different time frames and displayed specific characteristics of the space of the Shoushan area. The three time frames are the Japanese ruling era (1895~1945), the KMT era up to the end of enforced restriction (1945~1986), and the post-enforced restriction era until today (1987~2005). Shoushan is located on the west side of Kaohsiung city; it is 5 kilometers from north to south and 2.5 kilometers from east to west with the highest altitude of 354 meters and a surface area of 1200 hectares. It starts in north as a barrier of the Taiwanese strait at Tao-Tzu Yuen in Dsou-Ying and ends in south as a guardian of the Kaohsiung port with Chi-Ho Shan in Chi-gin at the Shi-Tzu Wan coast. The Shoushan area was used mainly as a security post, a special district of temples, and the Shoushan Park in the Japanese ruling era. At the same time, the Asano Cement Company was allowed to mine at the south side of mid-Shoushan, and it proved to have considerable influence on the local geographical environment. Later the Dsou-Ying military harbor was established on the north side of Shoushan and thus became a military-controlled area; the Tao-Tzu Yuen tribe was forced to move out. During the enforced-restriction era, the Shoushan area was one of the foci on defence. Under the “incident of February 28” and the “Decree of strongholds and forts”, Shoushan was regarded as an prohibited area with Chiang Kai-Shek’s residence within. After being renamed WanShouShan in 1968, the scenery areas and the National Sun Yat-Sen University were successively established. The university filled the ocean to make lands, replaced the space with embankment and wave consuming bricks and thus decreased the length of coastal lines. It was another blow to Mother nature and curtailed residents’ water activities. After the lift of enforced restrictions, military-controlled areas gradually diminshed, and the original sceneries and wild monkeys made Shoushan a popular site for leisure activities. With the increasing number of visitors, the government of Kaohsiung city publicly announced the “Shoushan Natural Park Management Rules” and stipulated that 10 meters above sea level in the GuShan district and the Shoushan area east of the coast are areas of the natural park. Local residents look forward to developments the natural park would bring while worry about limitations of their daily lives at the same time, and therefore it’s still undecided how to divide districts since the public announcement of the natural park. The issue that needs most urgent attention became how to make local developments of the Shoushan natural park and protect the natural resources at the same time.

This dissertation is an investigation of the status and the extent to which the Arabic language is put to use in the Durban Metropolitan Area in the KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa. A quantitative socio-linguistic overview of the Arabic language at the grassroots level is the main aim of this study. The study examines the Arabic language by placing it against a wide frame of reference and compels the researcher to place it in a broader comparative perspective with other dominant languages in Durban. As we have reached a decade of explicit vocabulary development in linguistics, it seems appropriate to reflect on the power of language to express modern discourse in demonstrating the parameters in which the Arabic language is maintained in Durban. When South Africa became a fully independent democratic state in 1994, all languages were liberated. The challenge for Arabic language practice and policy makes for a wider frame of reference for the promotion of the Arabic language in emancipation. The phenomenon that is relevant to the study is researched for the particular situation under investigation. Within this framework the data collection techniques, namely, interviewing, observation and questionnaires were used to gather information. While the secondary data was taken from research done by Arabic scholars and Arabic language promoters, the primary data was gathered from residents of Durban. The primary data was then analyzed and the extent to which the Arabic language is put to use is presented.Thesis (M.A.) - University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, 2007.

In order to provide an environment for convenient network access, it is necessary to allow network connections without rigid restrictions. However, a loosely restricted connection to the public access networks (PANs) could easily suffer from malicious attacks. A department local area network (DLAN) in a campus environment meets the features of PAN. We take the DLAN as a special PAN and deal with the management issues from the perspective of a system manager. Functions of DLAN management include invasion detection, appropriate IP usage, traffic monitoring, and proper system configuration. We physically divide DLAN into a firewall system and four functional clusters: open area, public servers group, proprietary servers group, and management group. In our study, a checkpoint scheme based upon firewall technology is constructed to protect the DLAN from intrusions. An IP-MAC mapping technique is also proposed to prevent IP addresses from misusing. The traffic, both incoming and outgoing, of each internal user is also monitored. Configuration of devices and systems is controlled by Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) operations.

Due to technology advancement, Taiwanhas converted to an informatization society. New social patterns bring many benefits through making life easier and rapid dissemination of information. But there is alsodifferences in technology adoption between the different ethnic groups, which cause the negative impactsthat we call the digital divide. The statistical data indicate that the use of internet in Taiwan significantly increased over years. However, rural areas have lower information equipment utilization rates, which shows that Taiwan does exist the digital divide between urban and rural areas. This study uses the internet usage as the measurement of digital capability to address several issues related to digital inequality between rural and urban areas. First, we investigate whether there exists digital divide between urban and rural residences. We then examine the urban-rural digital divide among different socio-demographic groups. Finally, we investigate the effectiveness in 2007 policy, which was designed to reduce digital divide. Data used in the empirical analysis consistsof people aged 15 and over drawn from the Taiwan Digital Divide Survey in 2005, 2006, 2008 and 2009.The empirical analysis was conducted in a two-stage framework. The first stage analysis estimates internet usageusing the Probit Model, andthe second stage analysis decomposes the urban-rural digital divide using Blinder-Oaxaca Decomposition Model. Results show that the probability of internet usage is higher for male residents. A positive association is also found between internet usage and education and household income. In contrast, internet usage is negatively correlated with age and household size. In the results of the decomposition analysis, the explainted part in digital divide accounted for about 80% of the total digital inequality. Also, the digital divide is mainly driven by the differences in the differences in education level, followed by work-related, the age and household income differences. On contrast, gender and number of household members have no significant effect. Digital divide had been reduced after implementing of the policy, and the main reason is the reduction in endowment effect of education and work-related factors.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among university students’ usage of sport facilities, satisfaction toward sport facilities and constraint of doing sport. The questionnaire was used in this research. A total of 580 questionnaires remained and the overall response rate was about 96.7%. Descriptive statistics, one-way MANOVA and canonical correlation were used in this study. The result of this study was as follows:1. Male freshman had the highest usage rate of using sport facilities. The data showed that they went to the gym once 1-3 hours, 1-2 times a week, and evening was the peak time of using university facilities.2. The score of software facility was higher than the score of hardware facility. 3. Structure constraint was found to be the most influential constraint, followed by intrapersonal constraint and interpersonal constraint. 4. Gender and grade were significant differences with satisfaction of usage of sport facilities. 5. Gender, grade and as a sport club member were significant differences with constraint of usage of sport facilities. Finally, according to the result of this study, some suggestions were provided: doing sport should be encourage, raising the financial input for sport expense is a must, building a safe and friendly environment for facility users, creating an always available gym for students. By doing this, students can not only have more opportunity to do exercise but have a higher satisfaction toward doing sport. Also, recommendations for future studies were provided in this study.

Of all the services in a university library, the reserve book service is one of those directly related to teaching. Yet the number of faculty members who actually used this service was very low. Studies of reserve book services in Taiwan were equally few. These facts indicate a lack of interest on the part of both university faculty and librarians. This study used a survey, to gather information from faculty who used reserve book services, during the second semester of the 2001 school year (between February and June 2002), at institutions in the Taichung municipal and county area. The survey attempted to determine the reasons for the lack of importance attached to reserve services and whether faculty members felt that the existence of reserve services was necessary. The survey, also explored the factors that influence the success or failure of reserve services, and the means to improve these services in the future, so that libraries may better fulfill their mission of assisting in teaching, research, and promoting academic skills and goals. The results of this study are as follows. 1) Faculty members and courses which use reserve services have some common characteristics. 2) Instruction methods, the amount of reserved materials in a course, and the timing in posting reserved book lists affect the use and results of reserve services. 3) Faculty members generally have a strong desire to build a good, interactive relationship with library staff and hope that university libraries can provide higher level services. Based on the findings of the survey, the study presents the following suggestions for future improvements: 1) University libraries should actively promote reserve services to faculty members. 2) University libraries should establish and maintain a good cooperative relationship with faculties. 3) University libraries should provide regular reports of reserve material usage to faculty members. 4) University libraries should improve basic service quality, especially in collection development and acquisition efficiency.

Although Taiwan’s performance in information technology is amazing, there are digital divide problems between urban and rural areas. The distributions of information technology and learning resources have been unequal in urban and rural areas. In addition, it exaggerates the digital divide phenomenon. Therefore, the National Communications Commission (NCC) has assigned type I telecommunications carriers to provide universal services of Internet access for unprofitable areas since 2007, to realize the policy objectives of broadband to every village. From 2007 to 2009, the NCC and universal service providers (Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwan Fixed Network Co., Ltd.) had deployed broadband infrastructure over 147 villages in Taiwan. However, the average broadband adoption rate was about 25% of these 147 tribes until April 2011. It seemed that broadband to every village, is not as effective as expected. According to students can access Internet at home or not, this study figures out any significant demographic factors and potential variables that influence the effectiveness of broadband universal service and Internet usage status in rural areas. Therefore, this study adopts t-test and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze survey data. The results discover that there are significant differences in perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived playfulness and the number of Internet accounts between students have and don’t have Internet access at home. Perceived playfulness has a significant impact on the intention to use the Internet for rural areas students. This research offers policy implications for the NCC to enhance efficiency of broadband universal service, and to reduce the gap of digital divide.

There were many scholars had been studied in students’ attitudes of computer usage, digital games and digital learning. However, coparatively little research has focused on the differences of parents’ attitudes on elementary school children’s computer usage. Therefore, this study aimed to explore if there was any gap of parents’ attitudes on elementary school children’s computer usage between urban and rural area. The method to carry out this study was using a survey, which included six variables: basic population, personal behavior of computer usage, students’ background, students’ computer usage, students’ computer attitude and the parents ‘s attitudes on school children’s computer usage. Subjects were parents from a downtown elementary school in Tai-chung City and from three remote elementary schools in Dongshih District. Of the two-hundred questionnaires, one hundred and eighty-nine were valid. The analysis used the SPSS statistical software package, which included descriptive statistics, chi-square test and independent samples T test. The results showed that the attitudes of parents’ computer usage were significantly different between urban and rural area； the confidence and the usefulness of computer were significantly higher for downtown parents than for remote parents. Otherwise, in the attitudes of school children’s computer usage, there were three dependent variables. First, in the willingness of computer usage, there was a significant difference between urban and rural area parents. Downtown parents were much more willing to let children to use computers than remote area parents. In support and positive attitudes, there was no significant difference between urban and rural area parents. Finally, it is hoped that this study can served as a reference for the future educational policy.

This research is undertaken to explore the patterns of motor vehicle ownership for the households in urban area, and compare the difference of household charact- eristics as well as behavior of vehicle usage among different patterns. Based on the developed conceptual framework about the patterns of motor vehicle ownersh- ip defined by the combination of motorcycle and auto- mobile ownership, a survey was conducted to collect required data. We first analyzed the patterns of motor vehicle purchasing sequence for the motorized households in Taipei and Hsinchucities, and found the households in Hsinchu City tend to own more motor vehicles than those in Taipei City. We might draw theconclusion that convenient public transportation servive and severe parking space deficiency will reduce the willness to own motor vehicle for the households in Taipei City. We also found motorcycles are getting attractive as the parking and congestion problems are getting worse. An Exponential Regression model is established to formulate the elapsed-time for purchasing another new motor vehicle, and try to explore the related factors affecting the decisions ofmotorized households. Fur- thermore, a binary logit model is used to realize the important factors affecting the vehicle type choice of motorized households when they decide to buy one additional motor.

Emergency care is extremely important and necessary work to modern nations.According to Emergency Medical Services Act, emergency medical services ( also known as EMS) include on-site emergency rescue and medical treatment for injured or ill patients in emergencies or mass casualty events, emergency rescue en route to hospital, referral of severely injured patients or critically ill patients on offshore islands or remote areas, and emergency medical care at medical care institutions. Fire Services Act specifically stipulates that there are three major tasks in the fire fighting organization: preventing fire disaster, providing rescue operation, and emergency care.However, emergency care on the way to the hospital is in a significant proportion of the organization’s business. Nowadays, because emergency medical attendance and the number of people sent to the hospital increase sharply, the importance of emergency medical system is obviously great. Rescue plays a very important role in emergency medical services, but in the situation of rescue, it seems that there exists a very big difference between town and country. To understand the differences between town and country for Yunlin County fire units to carry out rescue, I selected the following fire units as the objects of this study：Park Branch，Liohe Brigade，and Douliu Branch, which are located in Douliu City ；Taisi Branch，Mailiao Branch，and Beiwu Brigade, which are close to (border on) the Taiwan Strait.In the meanwhile I made a proper analysis from the rescue data, like the number of the cases from attendance, attendance types, attendance reaction time, the time to arrive at the scene and the time to stay at the scene, delivery time, transport distance, the rate of taking a trip without achieving the purpose, and whether patients are sent to the responsibility hospitals or not. The results of this analysis shows that emergency care of trauma cases in the metropolitan area is higher than rural area, and percentage of hospitalization in the metropolitan area is double than rural area. Furthermore, the elderly in general medicine cases are higher in rural area. It is suggested that number of emergency medical technician, and ambulances should be increased in order to cope with its large number of emergency care cases in the metropolitan area. Strengthen medical rescue techniques of emergency care technicians in order to cope with general medicine cases to the elderly in rural area.

Being safe and free from threats is the common goal for each person. But beside the man-made disasters, we have to be ready to face all kinds of unpredictable natural test in the world we live in, such as earthquakes, typhoons, floods, infectious diseases. Nowadays, without aggression from foreign enemy, to cope with disasters from nature seems to become the most important issue in our society. According to the rules and regulations, military supports relief work mainly on natural disasters.(For example: storms, floods). In recent years, because taking exercise become a kind of lifestyle, people are also relatively active to nature activities, such as hiking, mountain climbing and swimming. However, because of the bad planning of the activities or the carelessness of people, the occurrence rate of the disaster raises. When the disaster strikes, request for military assistance is inevitable. Sending troops for non-essential support will result not only in distortion of the original intent of the Act and the extra costs at all levels of government but also the waste of human and resources in the military. From this point of view, present work focus on the military participation in the work of disaster prevention and relief, and discuss the issues about the usage of military helicopters for the rescue of national emergency and give some useful suggestions.

The total area of Taiwan is 3.58 million and 8,263 hectares, of which the state-owned area is about 2.36 million and 4,028 hectares, 65.88% of the total area with the value around 4 trillion and 860.7 billion dollars. The land value is an asset which belongs to the entire people in Taiwan. Through the activation of these state-owned lands, we can achieve the purposes of land sustainability, interest sharing for the whole people, and the usage chances of the property for future generations. Hsinchu area is known as its high-tech industry and has a laudatory title of "Silicon Valley" in Taiwan. Due to full of employment opportunities, higher spending power per capita, and the stability demand for housing, the real estate market is less impact by the economy fluctuations. However, the booming housing market resulted in a higher house price and rental demand. In addition, the rental cost is not cheap and house rental is usually the last resort for people compared to the relatively higher house purchase cost. In this circumstance, the housing product of "creation of superficy" may be another option for people in real estate market. In this study, the study subjects are the "creation of superficy" cases of the state-owned lands for non-public usage in Hsinchu area. The study methodology is listed below. First, set up the impact factors that affected the "creation of superficy" effect. Second, do the contrast analysis and adjust the impact factors by comparing the successful and unsuccessful land tendering cases of the "creation of superficy" for the state-owned and non-public usage lands. Third, provide the countermeasures and verify their correctness, thoroughness, and comprehensiveness through expert interviews. The research purpose of this study are to set up the impact factors that affected the "creation of superficy" effect for state-owned and non public usage lands in Hsinchu area, including land tendering criteria, base condition, market influence, and land development etc. After further analyzing the impact details, this study provides the countermeasures. Through the study results, the suggestions and countermeasures are put forward and we expect that these can benefit the property management of the state-owned lands in future.

Full textAbstract:
Double DegreeThis dissertation reviews and analyzes the best practices in the Online banking business, namely in those which concern the Personal Finance Manager (PFM) tools for clients. Poland is currently a European leading market in Online banking, ranking amongst the most technologically advanced platforms in the Continent and being considered very reliable when it comes to security of payments. Considering that the Polish banking sector reached saturation and further growth should not be expected1, industry-experts predict that profitability will be gained mostly through cost-savings deriving from less face-to-face contact in customer support which will gradually be replaced by online contact channels. This paper focuses on improving the Personal Finance Manager’s (PFM for short) functions of Millenium Bank’s online platform (which directly or indirectly correspond to money transactions) and aims at analyzing how to develop competitive advantage through a more feature-rich easy-to-use and intuitive online platform (hence the execution of a study on international best practices concerning PFM). A study on the top 5 Polish retail banks is conducted to understand how advanced Millennium’s PFM is in relation with competition (whose results are compared with the aforementioned analysis on the best practices applied by internationally leading PFMs). Next, and on the basis of both these elements, specific suggestions were reached to improve the actual PFM tool. All in all, the objective of the report is to condense all the gathered information into a set of recommendations for Millennium to use in the development of their new PFM platform. The task was of special importance for two reasons: it is estimated that banks’ profitability in the future will be mostly driven by the “digitalization of clients” (resulting in cost savings for the institutions) rather than by the acquisition of new ones (which means that online banking platforms ought to be appeasing for customers); Millennium’s homebanking platform is already very advanced for Polish and even European standards, thus being hard to improve, even marginally.
