Lopez, Franco Ignacio. "Autonomous pseudomonoids." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2009. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/219201.
Анотація:
In this dissertation we generalise the basic theory of Hopf algebras to the context of autonomous pseudomonoids in monoidal bicategories. Autonomous pseudomonoids were introduced in [13] as generalisations of both autonomous monoidal categories and Hopf algebras. Much of the theory of autonomous pseudomonoids developed in [13] was inspired by the example of autonomous (pro)monoidal enriched categories. The present thesis aims to further develop the theory with results inspired by Hopf algebra theory instead. We study three important results in Hopf algebra theory: the so-called 'fundamental theorem of Hopf modules', the 'Drinfel'd quantum double' and its relation with the centre of monoidal categories, and 'Radford's formula'. The basic result of this work is a general fundamental theorem of Hopf modules that establishes conditions equivalent to the existence of a left dualization. With this result as a base, we are able to construct the centre (defined in [83]) and the lax centre of an autonomous pseudomonoid as an Eilenberg-Moore construction for certain monad. As an application we show that the Drinfel'd double of a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra is equivalent to the centre of the associated pseudomonoid. The next piece of theory we develop is a general Radford's formula for autonomous map pseudomonoids formula in the case of a (coquasi) Hopf algebra. We also introduce 'unimodular' autonomous pseudomonoids. In the last part of the dissertation we apply the general theory to enriched categories with a (chosen) class of (co)limits, with emphasis in the case of finite (co)limits. We construct tensor products of such categories by means of pseudo-commutative enriched monads (a slight generalisation of the pseudo-commutative 2-monads of [37], and showing that lax-idempotent 2-monads are pseudo-commutative. Finally we apply the general theory developed for pseudomonoids to deduce the main results of [27].

This dissertation examines a bank’s right to unilaterally terminate its contractual relationship with a customer on the basis of reputational risk. The law of contract allows a bank to terminate the bank-customer agreement when the customer is in serious breach of the contract. Over the years, however, a pattern has started to develop by which a bank can unilaterally terminate the bank-customer relationship of high-risk customers based on reputational risk. Banks are reluctant to facilitate the transactions of individuals surrounded by negative publicity, due to fears of how the bank’s investors, customers or counterparts might perceive the bank.
Compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter financing of terrorism (CFT) requirements, as set out by both domestic and foreign legislation, results in higher costs for the bank. As such, the profitability of a particular bank-customer relationship may ultimately decline to such an extent that the bank rather decides to make an appropriate business decision by terminating the relationship.
Correspondent banking relationships are agreements in terms of which one bank will provide services for another in jurisdictions where the first bank lacks a physical presence. As such, whenever there is a perception that a local bank does not comply with the relevant AML/CFT laws as set out by its domestic legislation, the correspondent bank might decide to terminate its relationship with the local bank, leaving the latter financially excluded from the correspondent banking market. Such a situation would hinder the growth of the South African economy and may also cause a systemic event in the financial industry.
Adequate customer due diligence (CDD) measures assist a bank in formulating a clear understanding of the business of its customers. The information obtained through CDD may also assist the bank in determining the reputation of a particular customer. This information can also assist law enforcement in combatting financial crimes. In this regard, it is recommended that a bank should be able to trace the information that was shared with Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs) and law enforcement agencies, so that the bank may reasonably determine the level of reputational risk involved in the relationship.Mini Dissertation (LLM)--University of Pretoria, 2020.

Michaud, Julie. "Les granites à métaux rares : origine, mise en place et mécanismes de la transition magmatique-hydrothermale." Thesis, Orléans, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019ORLE3002.
Анотація:
Les granites à métaux rares sont issus de la cristallisation de magmas très évolués enrichis en volatiles et fondants (F, Li, P, B) et en métaux tels que Sn, Nb, Ta et W. Dans la chaîne Varisque d’Europe de l’Ouest, ils résultent d’un magmatisme tardi-orogénique spécifique. Depuis les années 60, de nombreuses études se sont intéressées à la signature géochimique de ces granites et différents modèles de genèse ont pu être proposés. Malgré cela, plusieurs questions subsistent; le contexte et les mécanismes de mise en place de ces granites particuliers ne sont que rarement abordés. Afin d’avoir une vision complète des processus et mécanismes responsables de (i) la genèse des magmas à métaux rares, (ii) la géométrie et la mise en place de ces granites, (iii) leur signature géochimique et leur enrichissement en métaux, une étude multi-approches et multi-échelles a été menée sur l’exemple du granite à métaux rares d’Argemela (Zone Centro-Ibérique, Portugal). Elle a été complétée par une étude expérimentale portant sur la genèse des magmas. Les résultats de l’étude structurale montrent que l’intrusion d’Argemela se met en place dans un contexte particulier. Plusieurs critères suggèrent une remontée verticale rapide et chenalisée du magma jusqu’à un niveau très superficiel, subvolcanique. L’étude pétrologique et géochimique du granite et des minéralisations associées a permis de mettre en évidence les évènements clés et les processus mis en jeu durant la transition magmatique-hydrothermale. Ceci a également permis d’appréhender les processus de concentration/transport des métaux et les mécanismes de dépôt des minéralisations. L’étude expérimentale indique qu’un seul stade de fusion partielle à faible taux ne permet pas de générer des magmas suffisamment enrichis en métaux. Cependant, un mécanisme de refusion de restites enrichies, qui reste encore à tester, pourrait produire les concentrations en métaux requises. Enfin, cette étude démontre la nécessité de combiner les approches car l’ensemble des processus sont interdépendants dans ce type de systèmes minéralisésRare metal granites result from the crystallization of highly evolved magmas enriched in volatiles and fluxing elements (F, Li, P, B) and in metals such as Sn, Nb, Ta and W. In the Western Europe Variscan belt, these granites are attributed to a late orogenic episode of rare metal magmatism. Since the 60’s, numerous studies have focused on the specific geochemical signature of rare metal granites and several models have been proposed for their genesis. However, several questions remain and, in particular, the context and mechanisms of magma emplacement have been only rarely addressed. In order to build a comprehensive understanding of magmatic, hydrothermal and tectonic processes and mechanisms responsible for (i) rare metal magma generation, (ii) magma emplacement and geometry, (iii) specific geochemical signature and metal enrichment, a multi-approach and multi-scale study has been performed on the example of the rare metal granite of Argemela (Central Iberian Zone, Portugal). It has been complemented by an experimental study on the genesis of rare metal magmas. Results of the structural analysis highlighted the special structural context of emplacement of the Argemela intrusion. Several criteria suggest a fast vertical and channelled magma ascent up to shallow subvolcanic levels. The petrological and geochemical study of the granite and related mineralization allow the identification of key events and processes involved during the magmatic-hydrothermal transition. Mechanisms of concentration/transportation and deposition of metals have been also specified. The experimental study indicates that a single step low degree partial melting is not efficient enough to produce rare metal magmas, since most are sequestered into the restite. However, remelting of enriched restitic assemblages, a mechanism which remains to be tested, could well produce the required rare metal concentrations. Finally, this study demonstrates the necessity to combine several approaches, since processes and mechanisms are interrelated in these mineralized systems

Title: Similarities or differences within the centre-right? A study of the potential for party fusions within in the Swedish centre-right
Author: Charlie Weimers
Aim: The thesis seeks to find the potential for party fusions within the Swedish centre-right by analyzing the ideological similarities and differences between the parties.
Method/Material: In the thesis, four dimensions of the parties’ ideologies are analyzed: view of man, theory for societal structures, fiscal theory and moral values. The results of the study of the ideologies are then compared. The investigation is done with the party manifestos as starting point and with the analysis of ideas as theoretical tool.
Main Results: The comparative analysis, based on the parties’ ideological views, shows specific party constellations are more probable than others. The biggest ideological similarities are to be found between the Liberal People’s Party and the Centre Party, out of which I conclude that these two parties have the best potential for a fusion. The Moderate Party and the Christian Democratic Party also have clear similarities, thus there is a potential for fusion to a certain degree. The Moderate Party also shows some similarities with the Liberal People’s Party and the Centre Party, hence the possibility for a merger can not be excluded. My conclusion is based upon social liberalism and neo-conservatism as ideal types, which gives the Christian Democratic Party a position to the right. Thus, it would possible to claim that this party has the least options regarding fusion partners. The Moderate Party has the most alternatives, since the party is in a kind of “middle ground” between social liberalism and neo-conservatism.

CHDS State/LocalFusion Centers are in a unique position to provide the necessary collaborative space to bring the federal intelligence community together with state, local and tribal initiatives to support homeland security efforts at the grass roots level. Fusion Centers are described as a collaborative effort of two or more agencies to share, or more importantly, fuse information or data from multiple sources. Although, fusion centers have developed at different intervals, the U.S. Homeland Security has provided guiding documents to support fusion center maturation. This research examines these documents and proposed strategies incorporated into four proficient fusion centers in the Northeast Region of the United States to identify best or smart practices, success stories and areas for improvement. There has been a plethora of literature written concerning fusion centers since the tragedies of September 11, 2001. These categories of the literature include: official documents, guidelines and lessons learned for intelligence input, civil liberties safeguards and protections and literature dealing with the intelligence cycle and information sharing. The focus of this thesis is to examine correlation between the implementation of the current United States Homeland Security and U.S. Justice suggested Fusion Center Guidelines, and the employment of these guidelines in the successful development of a model fusion center.

This thesis presents a method for information fusion for an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV).We consider a system that fuses contact reports from automated information system (AIS) data and active and passive sonar sensors. A linear assignment problem with learned assignment costs is solved to fuse sonar and AIS data. Since the sensors operate effectively at different depths, there is a time lag between AIS and sonar data collection. A recurrent neural network predicts a contact's future occupancy grid from a segment of its AIS track. Assignment costs are formed by comparing a sonar position with the predicted occupancy grids of relevant vessels. The assignment problem is solved to determine which sonar reports to match with existing AIS contacts.

Анотація:
Une fusion d'hôpitaux est très souvent à l'origine de transformations importantes. Pourtant, les études menées jusqu'à présent, pour la plupart, ignorent les processus de changement post-fusionnels. Partant de l'observation de trois hôpitaux engagés dans une fusion, cette thèse interroge ces processus de changement, en se demandant pourquoi certains hôpitaux s'engagent dans un processus de fusion. Par ailleurs, elle se pose la question de la transformation post-fusionnelle des lits d'hospitalisation et des filières-réseaux, et qui semblent être l'élément majeur dans les processus de changement des hôpitaux engagés dans de telles opérations. Elle défend l'idée que l'organisation hospitalière est fortement structurée en réseaux, et la fusion consiste à faire bouger ces réseaux. Il s'agit alors de la ré-articulation des trois hôpitaux ensemble et du nouvel hôpital avec son espace sanitaire. Une fois cette ré-articulation entre les différentes entités de nos trois hôpitaux et de leurs partenaires externes stabilisée, l'hôpital devient un espace propice à la mutualisation des moyens, à l'apprentissage et à l'harmonisation. Ceci renforce la stabilité de cette nouvelle structure. L'ensemble de ces processus oriente la fusion vers une fusion intégrative.

Much of the current fusion center debate focuses on three areas of concern: the ability of the centers to be a vital link in the national counter-terrorism effort while maintaining their state and local autonomy, the lack of consistency in the development and operation of the centers, and the potential for violation of civil liberties. This thesis analyzes the two handbooks most widely adopted by fusion center leadership, explores the disparity among the centers and their continuing challenges, and applies the characteristics of accreditation programs to the issues at hand in an effort to determine whether published baseline capabilities coupled with an accreditation process is the solution to the long-term success of fusion centers.

Анотація:
The September 11 terrorist attacks pointed out the lack of information sharing between law enforcement agencies as a potential threat to sound law enforcement in the United States. Therefore, many law enforcement agencies as well as the federal government have been initiating information sharing systems among law enforcement agencies to eradicate the information sharing problem. One of the systems established by Homeland Security is the North Central Texas Fusion Center (NCTFC). This study evaluates the NCTFC by utilizing user acceptance methodology. The unified theory of acceptance and the use of technology is used as a theoretical framework for this study. Within the study, user acceptance literature is examined and various models and theories are discussed. Furthermore, a brief information regarding the intelligence work done by law enforcement agencies are explained. In addition to the NCTFC, several major law enforcement information systems are introduced. The data for this study comes from the users of the NCTFC across the north central Texas region. Surveys and interviews are used to triangulate data. It is found in this study that performance expectancy and effort expectancy are important indicators of system use. Furthermore, outreach and needs assessment are important factors in establishing systems. The results of the study offer valuable input for NCTFC administrators, law enforcement officials, and future researchers.

Multimodal image registration is essential when combining functional and structural imaging modalities. Among the most common combinations, numerous methods have been developed for co-registration of CT and PET, typically validated on human size scanners. However, only a few registration studies have been performed for the combination of small animal miniPET and microCT imaging. The Jonasson Center for Medical Imaging at KTH possesses an integrated miniPET/ microCT for pre-clinical research purposes. The motivation for this work is the need for the development of fusion method(s) for combining the data of these two modalities. In this work, a novel pipeline registration method, employing image processing and Mutual Information (MI) is proposed and implemented. The method starts with a pre-alignment step before acquisition of the miniPET/microCT volumes, followed by scaling, binarization and processing of the two volumes and finally, a registration procedure by Maximization of Mutual Information (MIM) as a voxel-based similarity metric. A established intrinsic landmarks based method is also implemented for comparison. For the validation of the methods, volumes acquired by in-house designed 3D printed Polyethylene (PE) phantoms, filled with multiple concentrations of FDG were used. The misalignment between corresponding points volumes after registration, is analyzed and compared in terms of absolute spatial distance. The proposed method based on 3D processed volumes outperformed the Landmarks based registration method, showing average misalignments of 0.5 mm. The registered volumes were also successfully visualized together using Alpha blending. By so, an automatic fusion method for miniPET/microCT has thus been implemented, presented and evaluated, raising prospects for multimodal imaging research at the Jonasson Center for Medical Imaging.Kombinationen av funktionell och strukturell avbildning är vanlig inom medicinsk bildgivning, och koregistrering av bildvolymerna utgör en essentiell del i den multimodala framställningen. PET/CT-avbildning hör till de vanligast förekommande multimodala avbildningskombinationerna, och till följd av detta har ett antal koregistreringsmetoder utvecklats för just detta. Vad gäller pre-klinisk avbildning är dock validerade koregisteringsmetoder inte lika vanliga, och framförallt inom forskningsbaserad avbildning (där egendesignade scanners förekommer) är behovet av effektiva metoder tydligt. Inom Jonassons centrum för medicinsk avbildning på KTH har ett multimodalt miniPET/ microCT-system utvecklats, och det är just behovet av koregistering som utgjort basen för följande examensarbete. I följande arbete har en koregistreringsmetod baserad på fördefinierad bildbehandling och analys av gemensam information (mutual information, MI) implementerats och testats. Metoden bygger på ett initialt upplinjeringssteg innan microCT/ miniPET bildtagning. Efter detta genomförs en rad bildbehandlingssteg (skalning, binärisering) innan en slutgiltig koregistrering genomförs med hjälp av s.k. maximering av gemensam information (Maximization of Mutual Information, MIM). En etablerad landmärkesbaserad metod implementerades även som jämförelse. Metoderna testades sedan genom multimodal avbildning av egendesignade 3D-printade fantomer, fyllda med varierande aktivitet av FDG. Den föreslagna MI-metoden överträffade den etablerade landmärkesmetoden, med ett genomsnittligt koregistreringsfel på 0.5 mm. Visualisering av de koregistrerade volymerna genomfördes även genom så kallad alpha blending. Genom detta har en koregistreringsmetod för miniPET/microCT:n på Jonassons center för medicinsk avbildning implementerats och testats, vilket möjliggör för framtida studier av multimodal avbilning på KTH.

The aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on the United States resulted in the introduction of the National Fusion Center Network. This effort seeks to empower National Security by effectively sharing information between various law enforcement organizations. Since the establishment of the Network, information that addresses the Networks' standard operating procedures and existing barriers to share information effectively has been lacking. This caused many criticisms as to whether the network is in fact effective in fulfilling its mandate to effectively share information between the various law enforcement agencies. Utilizing Bandura's cognitive theory of behavioral change, this phenomenological study identifies the strategies utilized by the Fusion center Network to share information while addressing the barriers that arise during the process. Qualitative data consists of interviews conducted with a purposive sample of N=8 employees at two Fusion Centers in the Network. Data were inductively coded, analyzed, and summarized to answer the research questions and illustrate relevance to the framework. Findings made it clear that staff respondents believe that the Fusion Center Network has a tangible impact on Information Sharing between law enforcement, government, and non-government agencies. This expanded the field of knowledge regarding the Fusion Center Network and made room for future researchers to expound on. Recommendations offered by this study are geared towards assisting policy makers, partner organizations and the public at large to make better decisions toward protecting the Homeland from future acts of terror. This study carries implications for creating positive social change by providing recommendations to assist legislators develop effective policies and to increase national security measures of the United States.

The National Network of Fusion Centers (Network) represents one of the post-9/11 era organizational efforts to strengthen the security of the homeland through collaboration, analysis, and information sharing. These entities have been subjected to criticisms and have been noted in studies as being deficient in certain areas suggesting that the Network has been experiencing problems with integrating the U.S. national security strategy. Using the multiple streams framework, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to identify and understand elements that have been impacting the Network's integration with broader national security efforts as well as identify items contributing to negative perceptions of fusion centers. Data for this qualitative study were collected through interviews with 13 individuals working within the Network. Collected data elements were inductively coded and then analyzed, demonstrating the relevance of framework to this topic area. Research findings indicated that there were challenges with Network integration that were influenced by perceptions of problems/threats, views concerning a fusion center's primary stakeholder, and constraints related to existing organizational policy and mandates. Barriers to integration stemmed from differing priorities, ineffective marketing, policy requirements, relationships, and limited resources. Study recommendations included the development of a strategic engagement plan, alignment of priorities, and increases in federal funding and representation. The implications for positive social change of this study are associated with proving transparency on the Network, informing national security agencies and decision makers on issues impacting integration, and promoting operational efficiencies.

Анотація:
Améliorer la compréhension des phénomènes pilotant l’agglomération au sein des réacteurs à lit fluidisé lors de la conversion thermochimique de biomasse (700-1000°C) est important pour prédire son occurrence à l’échelle industrielle. L’agglomération est liée à la formation de phases liquides (oxydes liquides et/ou sels fondus) provenant de la fusion des espèces inorganiques contenues dans la ressource (cendres). Leur présence conduit à la défluidisation des matériaux de lit, à l’origine d’une baisse des rendements de production en gaz, voire d’un « blocage » du réacteur. La phénoménologie de l’agglomération est examinée à partir de trois approches expérimentales, en matériaux simulants et réels, à trois échelles différentes et dans des gammes de températures allant de l’ambiante à 1000°C. L’analyse des mécanismes à l’origine de cette agglomération du lit montre que la formation du liquide est le seul paramètre limitant dans la formation d’agglomérats. Ce phénomène provoque une augmentation du diamètre apparent des particules de lit en parallèle d’une diminution de leur masse volumique. Ces modifications peuvent être associées à un déplacement au sein de la classification de Geldart de la catégorie B vers la catégorie D. D’un point de vue hydrodynamique, la défluidisation du lit résulte de la ségrégation des agglomérats au fond du réacteur. Ce phénomène contribue à dégrader l’homogénéité de répartition du gaz de fluidisation dans le réacteur. La défluidisation complète du lit survient pour une fraction de liquide dans le lit très faible (quelques % vol. de lit). Sur la base de ces résultats, une formulation simplifiée a été proposée et permet de prédire, à partir de la ressource utilisée et pour un fonctionnement simplifié, la durée de fonctionnement avant défluidisationImproving the knowledge on the driving phenomena of agglomeration during fluidized-bed conversion of biomass (700-1000°C) is essential to predict its occurrence at industrial scale. Agglomeration is due to liquid phase formation (molten salts and/or molten silicates) coming from the melting of inorganic species contained inside the biomass (ash). Their presence leads to bed materials defluidization, reducing the process efficiency and even going up to a “blockage” of the reactor. The phenomenology of agglomeration is investigated with three experimental approaches, using simulant and real materials, at three different scales, and with a temperature ranging from ambient one to 1000°C. The analysis of the mechanisms underlying the bed agglomeration indicates that the liquid formation is the single limiting parameter for agglomerates formation. This phenomenon leads to an increase of the apparent diameter of the bed particles and at the same time to a decrease of their density. These modifications can be seen as a shift among the Geldart’s classification, from the B to the D-class. Concerning the hydrodynamic aspect, the bed defluidization is due to the agglomerates segregation at the bottom of the reactor. This phenomenon contributes to degrade the homogenous fluidization gas distribution across the reactor. The total bed defluidization occurs for a very low liquid fraction in the bed (few % vol. of bed materials). Based on these results, a simplified model has been proposed in order to predict the operating time before defluidization of the reactor, taking into account the biomass composition and simplified operating conditions

Little is known about how effectively federal agencies share terrorism intelligence with state and local governments through fusion centers. As a result, there is a risk that local governments do not receive critical intelligence that would allow them to collaboratively prevent catastrophic terrorist attacks. Using Dawes' interagency information sharing model, the purpose of this exploratory case study was to evaluate how effectively federal agencies share terrorism intelligence with fusion centers. Data were collected through interviews with 25 senior leaders, federal agents deployed to fusion centers, and intelligence analysts in 5 fusion centers on the East Coast. These data were inductively coded and then subjected to a thematic analysis procedure. Findings indicated that, among these leaders, information sharing was hindered by both technology and inter-organizational relationships between the fusion centers and federal agencies. Participants also noted that obstacles to information sharing regarding classified data has not been sufficiently mitigated. Dawes' interagency information-sharing theory was found to be explanatory regarding intelligence sharing activities. Implications for positive social change include recommendations to the Department of Homeland Security to utilize Dawes' work on information sharing in order to alleviate the tension between federal and local agencies and remove obstacles, particularly related to classified intelligence related to counterterrorism. Doing so can be useful in developing policy recommendations to improve the dynamics between federal and local agencies, thereby allowing critical information to be shared with state and local governments in a proactive manner that may better protect communities.

The working situation of fighter pilots is often very challenging. The pilots are requested to perform their tasks and make decisions in situations characterised by time-pressure, huge amounts of data and high workload, knowing that wrong decisions might result in fatal consequences. To aid the pilots, several automatic support systems have been implemented in modern fighter aircraft and will continue to be implemented in pace with technological advancements and new demands posed on the pilots. For example, innovations within the information fusion (IF) domain have made it possible to fuse large amounts of data, stemming from different sensors, databases etc., to create a better foundation for making decisions and act than would have been possible if the information sources had been used separately. However, there are both positive and negative effects of automation, such as decreased workload and improved situation awareness on the one hand, but skill degradation and complacent behaviour on the other. To avoid the possible negative consequences of automation, while at the same time ameliorating the positive ones, a human-centred automation (HCA) approach to system design has been proposed as a way of optimizing the collaboration between the human and the machine. As a design approach, HCA stresses the importance of a cooperative human-machine relationship, where the operator is kept in the automation loop. However, how to introduce HCA within the fighter aircraft domain as well as its implications for the interface and automation design of support systems within the field has not been investigated. This thesis investigates the implications of introducing HCA into the fighter aircraft domain. Through literature surveys and empirical investigations, general and domain specific HCA guidelines have been identified. These advocate, for example, that an indication of the reliability of the information and the recommendations provided by the different aircraft support systems must be given as well as that support for appropriate updates of the pilots’ individual and team awareness of the situation must be provided. A demonstrator, mirroring some of the identified guidelines, has been implemented and used to evaluate the guidelines together with system developers within the domain. The evaluation indicated that system developers of modern fighter aircraft implicitly incorporate many of the identified HCA guidelines when designing. However, the evaluation further revealed that to explicitly incorporate these guidelines into the development approach, preferably through the development of a domain specific style guide, would aid the system developers design automated support systems that provide appropriate support for the pilots. The results presented in this thesis are expected to aid developers of modern fighter aircraft support systems by incorporating HCA into the traditional simulator-based design (SBD) approach. This approach is frequently used within the field and stresses early and frequent user-involvement when designing, in which complementary HCA evaluations could be performed to further improve the support systems implemented from an automation perspective. Furthermore, it is expected that the results presented in this thesis will contribute to the research regarding how to incorporate the human operator in the information fusion processes, which has been recognised as a research gap within the IF field. Thus, a further contribution of this thesis is the suggestion of how the HCA development approach could be of aid when improving the interaction between the operator and the automated fusion system.Arbetssituationen för stridspiloter är ofta mycket utmanande. Piloterna måste utföra sina uppgifter och fatta beslut i stressiga situationer med stora informationsmängder och hög arbetsbörda, samtidigt som val av fel beslut kan leda till allvarliga konsekvenser. För att hjälpa piloterna har flera automatiska stödsystem implementerats i moderna stridsflygplan. Denna trend kommer att fortsätta i takt med nya tekniska framgångar och nya krav som ställs på piloterna. Forskning inom informationsfusion (IF) har bland annat gjort det möjligt att fusionera stora mängder data som härstammar från olika sensorer, databaser m.m. för att på så sätt skapa en bättre grund för att fatta beslut och agera än vad som hade varit möjligt om informationskällorna hade använts separat. Dock har både positiva och negativa effekter av automatisering rapporterats, såsom minskad arbetsbörda och förbättrad situationsuppfattning men även försämrad pilotprestation till följd av att de automatiska systemens prestanda inte övervakas. För att undvika negativa effekter av automation samtidigt som de positiva effekterna stärks har den så kallade människo centrerade automationen (HCA) lyfts fram som en möjlig väg att designa system där samverkan mellan automationen och den mänskliga operatören optimeras. Som en designapproach fokuserar HCA på viken av en samverkande människamaskin relation, där operatören hålls kvar i automatiseringsloopen. Men hur HCA kan introduceras inom stridsflygdomänen och dess implikationer för gränssnitts- och automationsdesign av stödsystem inom domänen har inte undersökts. Denna licentiatavhandling undersöker möjliga implikationer av att introducera HCA inom stridsflygdomänen. Genom litteraturundersökningar och empiriska studier har generalla och domänspecifika HCA riktlinjer identifierats, såsom att piloterna måste erbjudas en indikation angående tillförlitligheten hos den information och de rekommendationer som de olika implementerade stödsystemen i flygplanet har genererat, samt att stöd för att uppdatera piloternas individuella och gemensamma uppfattning av situationen måste ges. En demonstrator, som återspeglar några av de identifierade HCA riktlinjerna, har implementerats och använts för att utvärdera riktlinjerna tillsammans med systemutvecklare inom domänen. Denna utvärdering påvisade att systemutvecklare inom stridsflygdomänen implicit använder sig av många av de identifierade HCA riktlinjerna under designprocessen, men att explicit inkludera dessa i en domänspecifik design guide skulle kunna hjälpa dem att designa automatiska system som erbjuder lämpligt stöd för piloterna. De resultat som presenteras i denna licentiatavhandling förväntas kunna hjälpa utvecklare av moderna stridsflygsystem genom att inkludera HCA i den traditionella simulator-baserade designapproachen (SBD). Denna approach används flitigt inom området och fokuserar på tidigt och återkommande användardeltagande vid designarbetet, där komplementära HCA utvärderingar skulle kunna genomföras för att förbättra de stödsystem som implementeras från ett automationsperspektiv. Det förväntas även att de resultat som presenteras i denna avhandling kommer att bidra till forskningen kring hur operatörer kan påverka fusionsprocessen, vilket har identifierats som ett område där mer forskning behövs inom IF området. Ytterligare ett bidrag av denna avhandling är därför det förslag som ges på hur HCA utvecklingsprocessen skulle kunna användas för att förbättra interaktionen mellan operatören och det automatiska fusionssystemet.

Entre la fin des années soixante et le début des années soixante-dix, on assiste au passage de l'illustré juvénile hebdomadaire à la revue mensuelle de bande dessinée adulte, qui se nourrit d'événements comme mai 1968. Dans les années qui suivent, des politiques rédactionnelles inédites voient le jour. La figure du rédacteur en chef est mise à mal et les auteurs créent leurs propres structures, non conformistes. Si cette presse ne tient pas vingt ans, son apport décisif à la bande dessinée française n'est pas à minorer. Ce laps de temps représente une période de création, de renouvellement des genres par le biais des revues mensuelles. Les auteurs sortent de l'anonymat et proposent un nouvel art de la narration et de la représentation. Les fanzines et revues mineures prolifèrent en un phénomène pertinent dans sa dimension critique qui n'hésite pas à analyser le style, l'écriture, le contenu. L'exégèse se positionne entre circuits parallèles et controverse. L’album commence dès la fin des années soixante-dix à gagner des parts de marché sur la presse, alors que celle-ci est fragilisée par le circuit parallèle des fanzines. La bande dessinée s’envisage comme une industrie. Les éditeurs prévoient un glissement de support passant par l’album et de nombreux produits dérivés (figurines, portfolios, etc. ). La bande dessinée quitte alors les pages du journal vers de nouveaux supports.

This dissertation examines organizational level outcomes within a whole network--the national network of fusion centers. Fusion centers are state and local organizations that fuse threat-related intelligence and information by working with federal, state, and local law enforcement as well as other security partners in the public and private sectors. This research will ask why outcomes at the fusion center level vary within the network by exploring unique configurations of conditions at multiple levels of analysis. The results of the research will present evidence that suggests whole network effectiveness cannot be fully comprehended without first examining sub-network level impacts, such as the training or experience of analysts, organizational capacities, and the roles of relationships between network actors. This line of inquiry has ramifications for inter-organizational network theory building because it will demonstrate the individual importance of these factors, and how they interact with other factors at multiple levels within a network to influence outcomes. For practitioners in the domestic intelligence community this research will provide important insights and present paths taken by organizations in a national network to achieve a desired or undesired outcome.Ph.

Анотація:
This thesis consists of the evaluation of sensor-based risk management against oil spills using an underwater distributed sensor network. The work starts by highlighting the importance of having a performing leak detection system both from an environmental, safety and economic point of view. The case study is the Goliat FPSO in the Barents Sea which has to meet requirements dictated by Norwegian authorities to prevent oil spills. The modeled network is made of passive acoustic sensors monitoring the subsea manifolds. These sensors send their local 1-bit decision to a Fusion Center which takes a global decision on whether the leakage is occurring. This work evaluates how the choice of adapted Fusion Rules (Counting Rule and Weighted Fusion Rule) can affect the performances of the leak detection system in its current geometry. It will also be discussed how different thresholds, selected for a specific FR or sensor test, can change the system performance. The detection methods are based on statistical signal processing adapted to fit this application within the Oil&Gas field. The work also proposes some new leak localization methods developed so they can be coupled with the proposed leak detection methods, giving a coherent set of operations that the sensors and the FC must perform. Performances of detection techniques are assessed balancing the need for high values of True Positive Rate and Precision and low values of False Positive Rate using indexes based both on the ROC curve (like the Youden's Index) and on the PR curve (the F-scores). Whereas, performances of localization techniques will be assessed on their ability to localize the spill in the shortest time; if this is not possible, parameters like the difference between the estimated and the real leak position will be considered. Finally, some tests are carried out applying the different sets of proposed methods.

Mestrado em Administração e Gestão PúblicaDa Reforma de Gonçalves Ferreira, que constituiu a base para o atual Sistema, à criação da Lei n.º27/2002, de 8 de novembro, que lança as bases para a criação dos Centros Hospitalares, o Sistema de Saúde Português sofreu várias transformações. Na base destas alterações, porém, está sempre patente a procura de uma melhoria da qualidade dos cuidados de saúde, uma maior eficiência dos serviços e ainda a satisfação dos utentes. Uma oferta de cuidados gerais a todos os cidadãos foi também uma preocupação existente nestas reformas. Sabe-se, no entanto, que os Hospitais revelam uma grande complexidade na sua organização e gestão, dadas as suas características intrínsecas e o domínio onde atuam. Os serviços que oferecem e os diferentes problemas que surgem todos os dias dificultam o trabalho dos gestores. É, também, sobre o serviço de urgência que têm recaído as preocupações dos vários gestores, tendo-se este transformado na primeira escolha dos utentes, tornando os serviços menos eficientes e desajustando a dinâmica dos hospitais. Realizado em contexto de estágio, o trabalho desenvolvido teve como duplo propósito: por um lado, perceber o impacto que uma das reformas do sistema de saúde deste século – a fusão hospitalar e a consequente criação de Centros Hospitalares – tem produzido, designadamente no que respeita aos tempos que decorrem desde que o utente sente uma necessidade de utilizar um serviço de urgência até ao primeiro atendimento médico; por outro lado, compreender a dinâmica de fluxos dos utentes do Centro Hospitalar do Baixo Vouga, E.P.E. e mais particularmente os Serviços de Urgência do Hospital Distrital de Águeda e do Hospital Infante D.Pedro em Aveiro. O estudo mostra que a fusão não trouxe uma melhoria no atendimento ao utente em situação de urgência, no que ao acesso diz respeito. No entanto, há algumas medidas que podem ser tomadas para reduzir os tempos de espera e aumentar a qualidade do serviço de urgência do Centro Hospitalar do Baixo Vouga, nomeadamente a criação de fluxogramas como base de apoio à tomada de decisões.
Since the Gonçalves Ferreira’s overhaul, which was the basis of the current System, up until the creation of the Law n.º27/2002, of november 8th, that launches the basis to the creation of the Hospital Centres, the Portuguese Healthcare System underwent several transformations. On the basis of these amendments, however, it is always clear the improvement of the healthcare quality, a greater efficiency of the sevices and still the users’ satisfaction. The care offer to all citizens was also the concern existing in all of the overhauls. It is known, however, that the Hospitals show a big complexity in its organisation and management given its characteristics and the area where they operate. The services that are offered and the various problems that present themselves every day make the managers’ work difficult. It is, also, on the Emergency Department that the managers’ concerns have fallen, but the latter has become the first choice of the users, becoming the services less eficient and misfits the hospitals’ dynamics. Carried out in an internship context, the work developed had as a double purpose: on one hand, to understand the impact that one of the Healthcare Systems’ overhauls of this century – the hospitalar fusion and the consequente creation of Hospital Centres – has produced, namely in respect of the time that passes since the user feels the need to utilize an emergency service up until the first medical assistance; on the other hand, to understand the flow dynamics of the users of the Centro Hospitalar do Baixo Vouga, E.P.E. and particularly the Emergency Services of the Hospital Distrital de Águeda and the Hospital Infante D.Pedro in Aveiro. The study shows that the fusion did not bring improvement to the users’ assistance in an emergency situation, concerning the access. However, there are a few measures that can be adopted to reduce the waiting times and increase the emergency service’s quality of the Centro Hospitalar do Baixo Vouga, E.P.E, namely the creation of flowcharts as a support system to the decision making process.

Анотація:
Les années 1990 et 2000 ont vu l'activité mondiale des fusions et des acquisitions prendre de l'expansion (Melewar et Harrold, 2000; Lemieux, 2007). Les dirigeants d'entreprises anticipaient que les fusions procureraient plusieurs avantages économiques et organisationnels, mais de nombreux cas d'échec ont été répertoriés dans les écrits. Alors que la responsabilité de ces échecs est souvent imputée à des facteurs « hard », tels des enjeux légaux et économiques (Balmer et Dinnie, 1999; Melewar et Harrold, 2000), on a commencé à expliquer ces derniers par des éléments
« softs » liés au facteur humain, dont les concepts de culture, d'identité organisationnelle (Buono, Bowditch et Lewis, 1985; Nahavandi et Malekzadeh, 1988; Chreim, 2001; Melewar et Harrold, 2000). Pour étudier les processus de fusion, le présent projet de thèse emploie le concept de l'identité comme construit social (Tajfel, 1974; Tajfel, 1978a et 1978b; Turner, 1978; Tajfel, 1981; Abrams et Hogg, 1990) contribuant au sentiment de fierté des personnes par l'intermédiaire de caractéristiques jugées centrales, distinctives et relativement stables dans le temps (Tajfel, 1974; Hogg et Abrams, 1990; Albert et Whetten, 1985).
Les écrits démontrent l'influence de l'identité sur les comportements des personnes touchés par une fusion (Ullrich, Wieseke et Van Dick, 2005; Seo et Hill, 2005; van Dick, Ullrich et Tissington, 2006). On y fait également mention d'interventions pouvant être employées par les gestionnaires pour encadrer l'intégration (Yi et Uen, 2006; Kavanagh et Ashkanasy, 2006; Bartels, Douwes, de Jong et Pruyn, 2006). En revanche, l'identité et les interventions de gestion ont rarement été reliées explicitement dans les écrits examinés. La présente thèse propose d'examiner l'influence des enjeux identitaires et des interventions de gestion sur le déroulement d'une fusion dans le contexte d'un grand centre hospitalier universitaire (CHU). Plus précisément, le propos de cette thèse est double. Premièrement de mieux comprendre l'influence de l'identité des sous-groupes touchés par la fusion d'une unité opérationnelle hospitalière sur le déroulement de la fusion et sur ses résultats sur les plans suivants: le degré et la forme d'intégration identitaire atteint après la fusion et la satisfaction des personnes touchées par cette dernière. Deuxièmement, la thèse vise à expliquer comment les interventions de gestion influencent ces mêmes variables et le déroulement de la fusion. Un devis de recherche qualitatif a été choisi en raison du caractère exploratoire de la recherche. Pour recueillir les données nécessaires, le chercheur a interviewé 71 personnes (employés, professionnels et gestionnaires) provenant de quatre unités opérationnelles fusionnées du CHU. Un questionnaire fut également distribué aux employés touchés afin d'apprécier de manière quantitative l'impact de certaines variables, telle l'identité organisationnelle, pendant une fusion organisationnelle. L'information recueillie sur la phase pré-fusion révèle que les similarités et les différences identitaires entre les sous-groupes d'origine influencent le processus d'identification en modulant le niveau des perceptions de menace identitaire. Plus précisément, cette recherche a mis en évidence le fait que la probabilité de devoir changer sa manière de travailler et l'attrait que représente la fusion exacerbent les perceptions de menace identitaires. Pendant la phase post-fusion, différentes interventions de gestion peuvent influencer le degré d'identification des groupes et la satisfaction des personnes. Les interventions favorisant les interactions interpersonnelles planifiées semblent répondre au besoin plus élevé d'affiliation des personnes pendant la fusion, tout en favorisant le développement professionnel. Les données recueillies mettent aussi au jour le rôle modérateur de l'environnement physique de l'unité sur le nombre et l'impact des interactions non planifiées, et le fait que les événements non planifiés dits catalyseurs peuvent parfois stimuler le processus d'identification à la nouvelle unité, en faisant émerger la confiance entre des membres de sous-groupes préalablement distincts. De plus, les interventions de gestion tels les remplacements symboliques et les interventions de médiation favoriseraient l'identification à la nouvelle unité, mais à la condition que les personnes puissent préserver certaines anciennes manières de travailler ainsi que certains anciens symboles d'importance avant la fusion. Puis, pour obtenir un certain succès lors d'une fusion visant la polyvalence chez les professionnels, la formation des personnes et l'introduction de nouveaux symboles doivent être perçues comme utiles. Les résultats confirment également l'importance du leadership collectif (Denis, Langley et Cazale, 1996) pour réaliser la fusion mais, de manière intéressante, dévoilent l'importance de l'identité d'origine des membres de ce collectif comme facteur influençant la légitimité du leadership. Finalement, l'attrition de personnes agit de manière paradoxale. Le départ de personnes les plus insatisfaites augmente à court terme l'harmonie dans l'unité, mais peut entraîner une perte d'expertise et une perception de menace identitaire chez les collègues demeurant dans un sous-groupe à la taille réduite. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Fusion et acquisition, Gestion des ressources humaines, Gestion de changements organisationnels, Gestion des opérations d'une organisation de santé.

This thesis investigates the impact of after-school programs on youth in rural communities. A case study of the Fusion Youth Activity and Technology Centre in Ingersoll, Ontario was conducted to explore the relationship between program participation and the development experiences of youth participants ages 12 to 18 years. The Youth Experience Survey created by Hansen and Larson (2002) was selected for this study to assess the positive and negative youth development experiences of Fusion youth participants, measuring experiences within conceptual domains of Identity Work, Initiative, Basic Skills, Positive Relationships, Team Work and Social Skills, Adult Networks and Social Capital, and Negative Experiences. The study found that all domains measuring positive youth development experiences were positively correlated, with the strongest experiences associated with the domains of Identity Work, Basic Skills, Positive Relationships, and Team Work and Social Skills. In addition, the study concluded that participants’ youth development significantly increased with duration of membership and intensity of participation at Fusion.

En 1982, suite à d'un décret ministériel, le Centre Hospitalier de la Région de la Beauce était créé. La formation de cet ensemble de santé, fruit de la fusion des deux (2) hôpitaux de la Beauce, à savoir l'Hôtel-Dieu Notre-Dame de Beauce situé à Saint-Georges et l'Hôpital Saint-Joseph de Beauceville, était perçue comme nécessaire par la majorité des intervenants locaux et régionaux. Tous reconnaissaient que la mise en commun des ressources et l'élimination des duplications pouvaient permettre d'offrir dans la région des services de santé de façon efficace et efficiente.
Malgré l'atteinte des objectifs, à savoir la résorption des déficits budgétaires et le développement de nouveaux services, le Centre Hospitalier de la Région de la Beauce fut démantelé en 1988. Ce travail se propose de découvrir les raisons de cet échec de la fusion; car si cette structure organisationnelle permet d'actualiser les objectifs parfois contradictoires d'accessibilité et de rentabilité, la connaissance des embûches qui compromettent son utilisation devient primordiale à ceux qui comme gestionnaires voudront profiter des bienfaits de cet outil de rationalisation.
Le cadre conceptuel s'articule selon trois (3) axes d'investigation. En premier, la pertinence du choix de ce modèle pour créer des liens entre des organismes de santé sera évaluée. Puis, l'intégration des différents facteurs organisationnels sera questionnée, à savoir si des différenciations selon les facteurs spatial, géographique, économique, psycho-social, culturel, et politique se sont maintenues ou sont apparues. Enfin le processus décisionnel sera évalué à la lumière de ses conséquences.
Grâce aux données recueillies par la consultation des archives des centres hospitaliers et surtout par l'interview de trente-quatre (34) intervenants représentant tous les secteurs, les conclusions suivantes ont été tirées. Le modèle d'arrangement interétablissement était approprié. Des écarts dans l'intégration du facteur politique ont entraîné des différenciations dans les facteurs géographique, spatial et culturel. Cette confrontation entre administrateurs-médecins aux conséquences néfastes pour l'organisation a été engendrée par un processus décisionnel déficient en ce qui a trait au partage des services entre les deux pavillons.
S'inspirant de Mintzberg, la conclusion suivante pourrait être tirée : une méritocratie professionnelle est devenue une arène politique parce qu'aucune planification stratégique n'est venue appuyer un partage de services entre les deux composantes du Centre Hospitalier de la Région de la Beauce.

The application of wireless sensor networks has been quite practicable nowadays. We can place the sensor nodes near to the things or environments which we want to monitor. We can use the message received from the sensor node to make decision fusion about the condition of the event. Therefore, the correctness of the data is very important. In the thesis, we have designed a sensor fault detection scheme suitable to hardware implementation. A fault-tolerant distributed decision fusion in the presence of sensor faults via collaborative sensor fault detection (CSFD) was proposed in our previous research [1]. The scheme can identify the faulty nodes efficiently and improve the performance of the decision fusion significantly. It achieves very good performance at the expense of such extensive computations as exponent and multiplication/division in the detecting process. In many real-time WSN applications, the fusion center might be implemented with the ASIC and included in a standalone device. Therefore, a simple and efficient decision fusion scheme requiring lower hardware cost and power consumption is extremely desired. In this paper, we propose the approximated collaborative sensor fault detection (ACSFD) scheme and its VLSI architecture. Given the low circuit complexity, it is suitable for hardware implementation. The circuit of ACSFD contains 9265 gates and requires the core size of 368×358μm^2 by using TSMC 0.18 μm cell library. It can operate at the clock rate of 102 MHz with a power consumption of 2.516 mW. Simulation results indicate that ACSFD performs better in fault tolerance than the conventional approach.

The purpose of study was to discover the track of how nature environment inspired environmental education course through different methods such as analyzing course development structure under various circumstances, vision construction, course development, course operation and course evaluation to understand the problem, effect, introspection and result on driving environmental education in order to provide relevant data and reference to participates in the field of environmental education. To achieve the purposes above, this research would adopt Case Study method by interviewing various participants who had related with environmental education development within Fushan Research Center, Forestry Research Institute. The interview would also combined with third-party observation and profile evaluation before processed data analysis, evaluate and summarize. According to this research, I had concluded following results as below: 一、During field analysis stage this research indicated that the team leader and members of Fushan Research Center did not discuses and analysis the advantages and disadvantages of research field. As the concluded results pointed that the advantage of Fushan Research Center was its nature and friendly eco-environment, plentiful research results, free entrance and experimental in eco-environmental events. For the disadvantages site, including location, traffic, tour number restriction, no independent finance and professional resources that these could all be solved and turned into advantages for used and attracted points. 二、For further construction stage, Fushan Research Center had not won the support from management level regarding its environmental course development. As the result, the development and plan for further goal and target did not process, moreover, team members were hold different prospects for the development, which caused unstable atmosphere around. In the point, they can only relied on current resources and budget based on their leaders given to take further step. 三、On the course development stage it adopted a way to corporate with education institute to build up a basic model, which include course content, practice course for teachers, course design and trial course, and adjust it through members from institute to process further trial course to reach the complete of course proposals. During the corporation, teachers, leaders and members of institute could not align theirs course concepts which lead a lake process to the goal which center set, furthermore resulted in a huge different between course design concepts and in practice. 四、During the course practice stage, through the corporation with elementary school, this research had not provided the exact practice contents and information, relevant resource and practice demonstration and students’ attitudes and learning atmosphere which has been seen as three major effect to the course process. The adjustment had been made included increase observation and common period, decrease explain time and method. 五、In course evaluation stage, Fushan Research Center had been hold various events like Fushan deep breath, 福山植物人and 福山真水劇場courses to describe specific course targets and evaluation methods which demonstrated the basic model. However, it did not provide more specific recommendation regarding data collection, summary mechanism and presentation of teaching results. After study three courses, the results demonstrated that students had positive increased their sense and attitude toward environmental values. In conclusion, researcher had proposed this unofficial environmental course to the field for study and reference for Fushan Research Center, authority level, courses development department and further research use.

We propose a collaborative sensor fault detection (CSFD) scheme for elimi-nating unreliable local decisions when performing distributed decision fusion in WSNs. A criterion is proposed to determine a set of pseudo-faulty nodes. Perfor-mance evaluation results also indicate that the fault tolerance capability of the proposed approach employing a CSFD scheme is superior to conventional decision fusion. In addition, we propose the approximated collaborative sensor fault detection (ACSFD) scheme for hardware implementation. Given the low circuit complexity, it is suitable for hardware implementation. Simulation results indicate that ACSFD performs better in fault tolerance than the conventional approach. In this dissertation, an collaborative sensor fault detection (CSFD) scheme is proposed for distributed estimation in WSNs. In CSFD, the results of a homogenei-ty test are used to identify the faulty nodes within the network such that their quantized messages can be filtered out when estimating the parameter of interest. The simulation results confirm that the accuracy of the estimate obtained from CSFD scheme is significantly better than that obtained from a conventional estimation scheme when applied in sensor networks characterized by an unknown number of sensor faults of various types. Furthermore, we propose an efficient collaborative sensor fault detection (ECSFD) scheme with low computational complexity. Given the low circuit complexity, it is suitable for hardware implementation. The VLSI architectures of the proposed design were implemented by using Verilog HDL. We used SYNOPSYS Design Vision to synthesize the designs with TSMC or UMC cell library. Synthesis results demonstrate that our designs have the advantages of low cost and high performance.

The main purpose for this study is to introduce the procedures for the spiral of knowledge, the evaluation methodology into the PCDC teaching models. In addition, the processes and results of the knowledge transformation will be observed and recorded. This study adopted action research for two senior high school classes one of which is the 1st grade of senior high school functioning as an experimental group while the other of which receives the traditional instruction, functioning as the control group. Two pretests were administered and one formal test was applied to both groups. The data were mainly collected from teaching journals, teaching videotapes, recording forms for the subgroups, the evaluation forms for the knowledge transformation, testing questions for the problem solving ability and the study sheets for the course content. While qualitative data mainly focused on the content analysis, the quantitative data focused on statistical analysis of the evaluation form by using SPSS. We are trying to understand the issue whether after we integrate the theory of the spiral knowledge with the PCDC methods, studied participants’ ability on transformation of the personal knowledge, on problem solving will be promoted or not. The results indicated that participants’ socialization, externalization, internalization, the capabilities on the knowledge transformation and problem solving are reliably promoted whereas the combination did not result in the reliable effect, which might be due to the fact that the participants in this study were insisting on their original creativity for their conclusion and the fact that the teacher could not appropriately induce the participants to contemplate other groups’ conclusions. Another finding is that while the teacher guides the knowledge transformation of combination, he should use open questions to induce students to rethink their subgroup conclusion, and subgroup recording forms will help students concentrate on the difference of each subgroup conclusions. Keywords：action research, PCDC teaching model, the knowledge spiral theory.

Rapid development of natural science and the segregation between human beings and the natural environment have caused a common paradox that one’s views of nature tend to neglect one’s actual experience of nature. Nowadays, people tend to acquire knowledge from books rather than firsthand experience in nature. The purpose of this research is to probe into people’s views of nature, and explore contemporary views of nature. The literature analysis method is applied to compile the connotations of different views of nature, including environmental ethics, historical view on earth, and modern environmental perceptions upon which the basic conceptual framework for interview were developed. The subjects of in-depth interviews were eight naturalists who currently work at Taiwan Forest Research Institute (TFRI). Fushan Research Station which located in a nature reserve. All of these naturalists had been working in nature for long time and with rich knowledge and experiences in nature studies. In-depth interviews were conducted to obtain the characteristic traits of the naturalist’s view of nature. The main findings from the studies are as follows: 1. Connotation of views of nature: significant life experiences (contact with nature, other people's influence, education, job, environmental experience and beliefs), essence of nature (definition, analogy, composition, course and experience), values of nature (natural resources, right of life, moral considerations and the value of nature), relation between nature and mankind (role, right, duty and management), and practice (edification, influence, cognition, impetus and suggestion). 2. Significant characteristic traits that have influenced the view of nature: diverse life experiences combined with abundant contact with natural environment, knowledge of nature through scientific concepts, disappointment with mankind’s role in nature, and education and learning experiences. Based on above findings and analysis, the follow-up research on this subject and future development of public environmental education are recommended. Further suggestions including: revise the connotation framework on views of nature, conduct interviews via the “double topic” method, pay attention to privacy risks concerning interviews, and multiple and long-term interviews should be conducted with key persons from key areas. This connotation framework on views of nature may be useful in designing and developing systematic environmental education curriculums.

L'étude présente un compte rendu non exhaustif des recherches sur les facteurs critiques de succès. Elle décrit la réalité lors de fusion d'établissements de santé et de services sociaux. Ces organisations doivent maintenant planifier et rationaliser. En vertu du projet de loi 120, les fusions fournissent un moyen d'atteindre ces objectifs.
La recherche rejoint douze établissements "centres d'hébergement et de soins de longue durée" formant cinq regroupements. L'analyse de certains facteurs critiques de succès retient l'attention. Ces facteurs portent sur: le modèle de gestion, l'atteinte des objectifs du service à la clientèle, l'exercice du travail et la fusion proprement dite.
La méthode de régression simple ou multiple analyse la cueillette de données par l'intermédiaire d'un système informatique utilisant le programme "statview". Ces données représentent la vision du personnel travaillant principalement au niveau du service à la clientèle.
L'étude sur le terrain et l'analyse des résultats permettent de dire qu'au niveau de la pratique de collaboration seulement 12% des répondants observent une amélioration et 25% la situent au même niveau. La compétition entre les établissements fusionnés semble toujours exister.
Au niveau du service à la clientèle, 26% des répondants y voient une amélioration et 46% le croient inchangé. Le facteur critique "exercice du travail" demeure relativement stable malgré l'absence remarquée des cadres.
Généralement, le jugement des répondants sur la fusion s'avère positif à l'exception des pratiques de collaboration où près de 60% des répondants considèrent que ça ne s'applique pas. Les aspects négatifs se retrouvent dans les questions ouvertes où les commentaires sur: l'augmentation de la hiérarchie, les problèmes de communication, l'absence des dirigeants et la mobilisation des énergies retiennent 1'attention.
Des problèmes de communication et de bureaucratie semblent s'installer dans ces organisations. Les améliorations à apporter se situent principalement au niveau des communications et du rôle de chaque intervenant.
