Biblical Legends in the Folklore of the Turkic Peoples in Southern Siberia
Authors: Oinotkinova Nadezhda
Published: June 2017

The article deals with the ethnic specificity of biblical legends about the flood and the Tower of Babel in the folklore of the Turkic peoples of Southern Siberia (the Altai, Tuva, Khakassia and Shor). These folk legends, rooted in early Christianity, confirm the cultural and historical contacts between the peoples of Central Asia and peoples holding Christian beliefs. The subjects of the legends, associated with the biblical idea of the creation of the world and man and the flood, found their way into Siberia even before the Russians initiated the process of Christianization in the region from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. This assertion is confirmed not only by the specific features of folk legends under discussion, but also by historical data on the influence of Manichaeism and Nestorianism on the culture of the Central Asian peoples, including on the Turkic peoples of Siberia. The persistence of these legends can be attributed to the fact that their plots are often adapted to local realities, concepts, myths, and events. In the construction of these narratives, use is made of national mythological terminology and conceptual systems. The saturation of the folk legends with local mythology and local beliefs in the Siberian context may be a contributing factor to their ongoing existence as a part of the folklore. The appropriation of the contents of biblical legends by the peoples of Siberia also shows the seriousness of their adoption of Christian ideas in the distant past.

The four SNPs (C5178A, A10398G, G13708A, and C13928G) in the mtDNA coding region were detected using PCR-RFLP analysis. The primers listed in able 2 were used to amplify target fragments. The mismatch method was applied to generate an HpyCH4Ⅲ artificial restriction endonuclease site in the amplified fragment that included the C13928G SNP. The 20 µl PCR reactions contained 2.0 µl 10×buffer, 2 µl 2.5 mM dNTP mix, 2 µl each of R and F PCR primers (10 pM each), 0.2 µl of rTaq Enzyme (5 U/µl), and 20 ng of template DNA. PCR was performed under the following cycle conditions: initial denaturation of 94 °C for 5 minutes; followed by 30 cycles of 94 °C denaturation for 30 seconds, annealing at 61-65°C (Table 2) for 30 seconds, and elongation at 72 °C for 30 seconds; followed by a final extension at 72 °C for 5 minutes. PCR products were digested with restriction enzymes (S1 Table), and fragments were detected on 6% polyacrylamide gel.
Molecular genetic aspects of keratoconus pathogenesis
Authors: Kulikov Alexey N , Churashov Sergey V , Kamilova Tatiana A , Reituzov Vladimir A
Published: June 2017

Keratoconus is a bilateral, progressive corneal disease affecting all ethnic groups around the world. It is one of the major ocular problems with significant social impacts as the disease affects young generation, and is the leading cause of corneal transplantation. Although keratoconus is associated with genetic and environmental factors, its precise etiology is not yet established. Results from complex segregation analysis and patterns of gene expression show that genetic abnormalities may play an essential role in the susceptibility to keratoconus. There is a strong association between the polymorphism of a number of genes and corneal curvature. These polymorphisms explain only a small percentage of keratoconus cases, so genetic influences on keratoconus are most likely complex and varied. The aim of this review is to briefly provide the current knowledge on the genetic keratoconus basis - to understand the disease pathogenesis.
Enzymotherapy of toxic anterior segment syndrome after phacoemulsification
Authors: Suvorov Alexander S , Sazhin Timur G
Published: June 2017

Purpose. To investigate the efficacy of recombinant prourokinase (RPU) treatment in patients with toxic anterior segment syndrome after phacoemulsification.

Material and methods. We observed 123 patients (123 eyes) with toxic anterior segment syndrome after phacoemulsification; patients of the group I (n = 30) received only antiinflammatory treatment; in treatment of patients of the group II (n = 31), instillations of the RPU solution were used, in the group III (n = 31), RPU solution was injected subconjunctivally, in the group IV (n = 31) RPU solution electrophoresis was used. Treatment result analysis was carried out within 30 days.

Results. Initial mean visual acuity in groups was 0.09 0.04; 0.1 0.04; 0.09 0.04; 0.08 0.04, and was virtually the same (p 0.05). In 24 hours after treatment initiation, mean visual acuity in the group III was higher, than in the others. In three days and up to the end of observation period, the lowest mean visual acuity was noted in the group I (p 0.05). Anterior chamber assessment showed that beginning from the first 24 hours after treatment initiation, in groups III and IV, fibrin lysis in the anterior chamber was more pronounced, than in groups I and II (p 0.05); by the end of the observation period, worst indices of anterior chamber state were found in the group I (p 0.05), in other groups, they were almost identical (p 0.05). When using RPU, no allergic reaction was noted.

Conclusions. RPU use in combined toxic anterior segment syndrome therapy after phacoemulsification allows increasing visual acuity, reducing convalescence time, and reducing the number of laser dissections. It was established that all methods of RPU administration are effective. RPU may be administered as eye drops on an outpatient basis, receiving efficacy similar to other administration methods.

Correction of the electrophoretic shift in virtual 2D SDS-PAGE electrophoresis
Authors: Skvortsov V.S. , Alekseychuk N.N. , Rybina A.V.
Published: June 2017

Virtual electrophoresis in proteomics can be used to search localization of proteins and their proteoforms (especially those existing in low concentrations), to identify proteoforms found in experiments etc. Although the problem of predicting the isoelectric point is well studied, the need of electrophoretic shift correction is usually ignored. Researchers simply use the brutto molecular weight of the protein. In this study four data sets taken from the literature sources and the SWISS-2DPAGE database have been used to build correction equations for prediction of the electrophoretic shift (123, 72, 118 and 470 points, respectively). Two groups of models were built. The first model was based on the amino acid composition of proteins, the second one, on analysis of parameters calculated by amino acid sequences (theoretical molecular weight, hydrophobicity, charge distribution, ability to form helix structures). The coefficient of determination ranged from 0.35 to 0.75 in each single set, but cross-prediction between samples did not gave satisfactory results. At the same time, the direction of correction was predicted correctly in 74% of cases. After combining of the samples and dividing pooled data into 2 representative sets, the coefficient of determination during in the process of learning ranged from 0.44 to 0.51, and R2 of predictions were not less than 0.39. The direction of correction was predicted correctly in 80% of cases. This prediction models have been integrated into the program pIPredict v.2, freely available at http://www.ibmc.msk.ru/LPCIT/pIPredict.
Antecedents and Health Consequences of Job Insecurity among Teachers
Authors: Rajput Namita , Talan Amogh
Published: June 2017

Job Insecurity is emerging as a growing threat to the careers of aspiring, meritious and hardworking employees in our country due to various reasons such as high demand of jobs, and government’s inability to meet such a high demand in a short period of time. This results in hiring of employees on temporary/contractual basis. This situation is especially bad among the teachers belonging to various government schools and colleges in Delhi. Our study investigated certain psychological causes for the feeling of Job Insecurity among teachers. Perceived Organizational Change and Role Ambiguity were studied as the potential antecedents of Job Insecurity. Detrimental impact of Job Insecurity on the Mental and Physical Health of such employees were also studied. A sample of 110 temporary/contractual/ad-hoc teachers belonging to MCD schools and several colleges from University of Delhi was used for this study. ‘Partial Least Square’ technique of ‘Structural Equation Modeling’ was applied using ‘SmartPLS 2.0.M3’ to understand the proposed relationships. Results show both Perceived Organizational Change and Role Ambiguity significantly contribute towards Job Insecurity, where the effect of Perceived Organizational Change was particularly high. Job Insecurity was found to negatively affect Mental and Physical Health of the employees. Mental effect in terms of stress and anxiety was found to be especially prominent.

Lait de vache trait dans les petites exploitations familiales du Sahel semi-aride : des rendements faibles mais de grande valeur !
Authors: Hiernaux Pierre , Adamou Kalilou , Zezza Alberto , Ayantunde Augustine A. , Federighi Giovanni
Published: June 2017

Les volumes de lait de vache traits ont été mesurés tous les quinze jours sur une année chez 300 petits exploitants agro­pastoraux de la zone semi-aride du Sahel, dans la commune de Dantiandou au Niger. Les effectifs de vaches − adultes, en lactation et effectivement traites le matin et/ou le soir − ont été systématiquement enregistrés, ainsi que des informations sur la gestion de la pâture, la supplémentation alimentaire des vaches, et la consommation, la transformation du lait et la vente des produits laitiers. En outre, les carrières de reproduc­tion des 334 vaches ont été documentées par enquête rétros­pective. Le volume moyen par jour d’une traite a été de 0,82 ± 0,45 L. Il n’a pas été significativement différent entre la traite du matin et celle du soir, ni entre les saisons, ni entre les éle­vages. Cependant, les volumes totaux de lait trait par élevage, dont la moyenne annuelle a été de 507 ± 362 L, ont fortement varié en fonction des saisons et des élevages. En moyenne, ils ont été plus élevés dans les élevages des campements peuls récemment sédentarisés (624 ± 377 L) que dans ceux des éle­vages villageois djerma (352 ± 275 L). Cet écart était princi­palement dû à un effectif de vaches plus important dans les campements (7,1 ± 5,3 vs 4,3 ± 4,0), bien que la proportion de vaches en lactation y ait été plus faible (57 %) que dans les troupeaux villageois (73 %). Les résultats ont montré qu’une meilleure gestion par les agroéleveurs des campements avec des traites moins fréquentes, un recours plus fréquent à la pâture de nuit, à la transhumance et à une supplémentation alimentaire régulière ont contribué à améliorer l’état d’en­graissement des vaches et leurs performances reproductives. Malgré ces rendements laitiers modestes, la valeur monétaire du lait trait a représenté 16 % des revenus agricoles et non-agricoles des ménages des campements, et 7 % de ceux des villages. Les produits laitiers étaient largement consacrés à la consommation familiale : 78 % dans les campements et 84 % dans les villages.
O ser humano cultivado (pepaideumenos) em Aristóteles
Authors: Angioni Lucas
Published: June 2017

Discuto a noção de educação ou cultura (paideia) envolvida na figura do ser humano cultivado (pepaideumenos), que Aristóteles apresenta no início do tratado As Partes dos Animais e em algumas outras passagens. A competência do ser humano cultivado o habilita a avaliar certo aspecto das explicações propostas em um dado domínio, sem requerer dele um conhecimento determinado sobre o assunto específico do mesmo domínio. Examino de que modo essa competência é possível e como ela se articula a outras habilidades críticas que Aristóteles geralmente associa à ciência do ser enquanto ser.

Abordaje de la homosexualidad femenina en los tramos fundantes de la institucionalización del psicoanálisis argentino (1942-1955)
Authors: Ostrovsky Ana Elisa , Marin Julia , Alfonso Viviana Miriam
Published: June 2017

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo abordar desde una perspectiva histórica la presencia de sesgos valorativos en torno a la homosexualidad femenina en nuestra disciplina. Particularmente nos centraremos en desarrollos del psicoanálisis en Argentina desde su institucionalización en 1942 hasta 1955.En primer momento tomaremos la noción de heterosexualidad obligatoria señalada por la teórica feminista Adrienne Rich. Dentro de dicho marco, en un segundo momento nos referiremos estudios sobre la homosexualidad femenina analizando textos fundantes de Freud y sus discípulos. Luego realizaremos algunas puntuaciones acerca de la historia del psicoanálisis en Argentina y expondremos ejemplos del abordaje de la homosexualidad femenina en los años de fundación y consolidación del psicoanálisis institucionalizado (1942-1955). Finalmente reflexionaremos sobre cómo la historia de la disciplina nos permite revisar críticamente los valores que los psicólogos ponemos en juego- en nuestras prácticas y sus importantes consecuencias.

Authors: Collares-da-Rocha Julio Cesar Cruz
Published: June 2017

A saúde mental é um tema histórico na psicologia comunitária desenvolvida nas Américas a partir da década de 1960. Nosso objetivo foi produzir uma história da psicologia comunitária na Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio) na década de 1970. O material consultado foi composto por documentos (anais, artigos, capítulos de livros) e entrevista com a Professora Maria Elizabeth Ribeiro dos Santos. Introduzimos, brevemente, as práticas de psicologia comunitária realizadas nos Estados Unidos e no Brasil, focalizando as atividades produzidas na PUC-Rio: o Setor de Psicologia Comunitária no Hospital Fernandes Figueira e a criação da disciplina de ‘psicologia comunitária’. A história demonstra que os espaços tradicionais de atuação dos psicólogos comunitários foram os centros de saúde e os hospitais. Na PUC-Rio, as atividades foram realizadas com os conhecimentos da psicologia social, especificamente dos grupos operativos e da psicologia institucional, da psiquiatria preventiva e da psicologia comunitária desenvolvida nos EUA.
¿Hacia una Epidemia del Autismo? Entre Historias Celebratorias y Estudios Críticos
Authors: Nahmod Maia
Published: June 2017

Este artículo se propone hacer un análisis de las perspectivas historiográficas que señalan una continuidad histórica del diagnóstico de autismo para, a continuación, relevar enfoques críticos que tienen en cuenta los orígenes sociales y culturales de esta patología y plantean al autismo como un objeto histórico. Por otro lado, se utilizarán las nociones de Riesgo y Susceptibilidad como matrices de inteligibilidad de la problemática, en especial en relación con las “epidemias de autismo” a partir del crecimiento de la prevalencia de este diagnóstico en las últimas décadas en las sociedades occidentales. Se utilizará las nociones de historicidad y construcción social de este fenómeno para poder iluminar los contextos culturales de interpretación y las prácticas sociales alrededor del autismo en los siglos XX y XXI.

Development of Energy-Saving Machine Tool
Authors: Ohtani Hisashi ,   JTEKT Corporation 1-1 Asahi-machi, Kariya, Aichi 448-8652, Japan
Published: June 2017

Environmental measures are urgently required to realize a society with a low environmental load. In response, various undertakings are being carried out in the field of machine tools, which is most critical in terms of requirement of energy-saving measures. The energy consumed when a machine tool is used to machine can be broadly divided into three categories: the “standby energy” to maintain the electrical devices operational when the machine is not operational; the “steady-state energy,” which is the fixed amount of energy required when the machine is in operation; and the “dynamic energy,” which varies with the machining conditions and other factors. Measures are necessary for each of these energy categories to reduce energy consumption. This paper describes an example of an energy-saving study undertaken for a machine tool used for machining gears; a new processing method called skiving was developed to consolidate work processes.
Line-Based Planar Structure Extraction from a Point Cloud with an Anisotropic Distribution

We propose a line-based region growing method for extracting planar regions with precise boundaries from a point cloud with an anisotropic distribution. Planar structure extraction from point clouds is an important process in many applications, such as maintenance of infrastructure components including roads and curbstones, because most artificial structures consist of planar surfaces. A mobile mapping system (MMS) is able to obtain a large number of points while traveling at a standard speed. However, if a high-end laser scanning system is equipped, the point cloud has an anisotropic distribution. In traditional point-based methods, this causes problems when calculating geometric information using neighboring points. In the proposed method, the precise boundary of a planar structure is maintained by appropriately creating line segments from an input point cloud. Furthermore, a normal vector at a line segment is precisely estimated for the region growing process. An experiment using the point cloud from an MMS simulation indicates that the proposed method extracts planar regions accurately. Additionally, we apply the proposed method to several real point clouds and evaluate its effectiveness via visual inspection.
Determinants of Maternal Health Care Utilization among Ever-Married Rabari Women of Udaipur District, Rajasthan
Authors: Sharma Ayushi
Published: June 2017

Background: Improving maternal health is one of the eight Millennium Development Goals. It is widely accepted that the use of maternal health services helps in reducing maternal morbidity and mortality. The utilization of maternal health services is a complex phenomenon and it is influenced by several factors. Therefore, the factors at different levels affecting the use of these services need to be clearly understood. The objective of this study was to estimate the effects of individual, community and district level characteristics on the utilization of maternal health services with special reference to antenatal care (ANC), skilled attendance at delivery and postnatal care (PNC)

Methods: The present paper focuses in understanding the maternal health care utilization by the ever married Rabari women of Udaipur District, Rajasthan. A purposive random sampling method was used to collect data from 122 ever married women of age group 15-49 years by using pretested and modified demographic schedule.

Results: The results of this study showed that 63.11% of the respondents used ANC during their most recent pregnancy whereas only 10.65% women received PNC within two weeks of delivery. In the last delivery, 36.06% mothers were assisted by doctors and 50.81% assisted by nurse. Regarding components of ANC utilization 85.24% women reported intake of IFA (Iron and Folic Acid) tablets during pregnancy, while 77.04% of the women received Tetanus Toxoid (TT) Injection. The study reflects that higher utilization of ANC services are there and PNC services are mostly neglected among the women. The study also reflected upon the use of Birth Control Measures (BCM) among the woman. The lesser number of sample size may bind us from recommending much. But, Mothers should be motivated continuously and with every generation of nation they give birth to, they should utilize such health services for the future of the healthy society.
Socio-Economic Condition of Female Agricultural Labourers- With Special Reference to Mandya District
Authors: Pavithra R. H.
Published: June 2017

Women in rural India are involved in various stages of agricultural operations starting from sowing of seeds to hand weeding, harvesting and post-harvest activities. Over time, as technological change in agriculture has brought about a substantial change in labour-land use pattern, the nature of work of rural women has also undergone a change. Women spend a substantial part of their time not only in various activities directly related to agriculture but also in the management of livestock, poultry, etc. (Sisodia, 1985; Agarwal, 1988). However, the true picture of female work and their contribution to family expenditure is usually not clearly presented. Many economically productive activities performed by women go unrecorded as such or are subsumed within ‘domestic work’. In this paper an attempt has been made to study the socio economic condition of female agricultural labourers, and suggest suitable measures for improving their living condition.
Simulation Study on Influences of Wellbore Tortuosity on Hole Cleaning in Extended-Reach Drilling
Authors: Naganawa Shigemi , Kudo Hiroyasu , Matsubuchi Hitoshi
Published: June 2017

Wellbore tortuosity or spiraling can lead to the trapping of a cuttings bed in a trough of a tortuous hole, thereby leading to poor hole cleaning in extended-reach drilling. The objectives of this study included quantitatively evaluating the influences of wellbore tortuosity on hole cleaning and cuttings-transport behavior in extended-reach drilling. In addition, the study provided a recommendation of effective drilling practices. The study involved performing hole-cleaning-optimization studies for an extended-reach well with a long horizontal section aiming for maximum reservoir contact, by use of a transient cuttings-transport simulator. The planned trajectory of the well was assumed to have a certain degree of wellbore tortuosity in the horizontal section. The pump rate and bottoms-up circulation operation were optimized on the basis of parameter studies and additional transient simulations by considering the effects of penetration rate and variation in cuttings size.

Simulation results indicated the formation of a considerably high cuttings bed, particularly in the downdip intervals (updip in mud-flow direction) at an insufficient pump rate; one-third to one-half of the drillpipe diameter could be potentially buried in a cuttings-deposit bed, and this can result in a packed-off hole or stuck pipe. A higher rate of penetration (ROP) can also cause insufficient hole cleaning. In this case, controlled drilling that maintains a reasonably low penetration rate may be effective. Furthermore, borehole breakout may enlarge hole diameter and generate large-sized cuttings. Both of these can have negative impacts on hole cleaning, and, thus, borehole stability and smooth wellbore-trajectory controls should be carefully considered. To clean these holes, frequent bottoms-up circulations were effective at each stand of drilling even if the optimization of other drilling parameters was limited. The findings also revealed that accumulated cuttings in a tortuous wellbore were trapped in the trough of the hole, and that the bed height of locally trapped cuttings in the downdip intervals could be much higher than that indicated by previous studies.

Authors: Margatto Cleiton , Gonçalves Rodrigo
Published: June 2017

Coloured bowl trapping is a passive sampling method which catches insects through a combination of interception and attraction. The method is commonly used for Aculeata, especially bees. The objective of the present study is to determine a reliable sampling interval for aculeates using bowl traps since an appropriate sampling interval is important to enable the collection of representative samples in Neotropics. For this purpose we installed eight bowl traps in a forest fragment in Southern Brazil, during one year, to compare the sampled diversity in twice and once-a-month sampling interval. We confirmed the general expectation that increasing the sample size results in a proportional greater sampling of the community. Different sampling intervals have a weak impact in rarefaction curves, as these do not reach the asymptote in any cases, and Shannon diversity index was considered statistically equal. Under our results, the twice-a-month interval was considered better than monthly sampling intervals only when we compare the extrapolation data (estimators and extrapolation curve) for Aculeata. The Shannon diversity index and the estimated species number (rarefaction) were considered the same among the treatments, so we cannot suggest a reliable sampling interval from these data.

There is a lack of knowledge regarding Lepidoptera species in altitudinal grassland areas, especially in the state of Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil. Here we report some records of Vanessa braziliensis (Moore, 1883) and Urbanus zagorus (Plötz, 1880) in high altitude areas. We have likely registered both the first record of U. zagorus for the state of Santa Catarina and the highest altitudinal record of V. braziliensis in Brazil.

Business organisations constantly strive to improve their processes, both internal and external. Within the supply chain of a product, different strategies can be applied. This paper aims to answer the basic questions like what is the core of lean and agile SCM strategies, what are the differences of the two models, and how can they be combined. This paper examines further, which of these SCM models and what elements of them can be applied for wood pellet supply chains, also examining the possibility of their combination. The result of these examinations is, that even though fuel pellets can be considered as simple commodity and not a very innovative product, diversity in input characteristics, optimization of fuel pellet technology process variables and changes in output market qualities and quantities need sometimes agile, flexible answer from pellet fuel SCM. The basically lean character of pellet fuel technologies and SCM can further enhanced by implementing agile SCM model elements, as is the increased integration of suppliers into the supply chain.

A Közbeszerzésekről szóló új törvény célja, hogy biztosítsa a közpénzek hatékonyabb felhasználását. Az új szabályozás eredményeképpen jelentősen meggyorsulnak a közbeszerzési eljárások, növekszik az átláthatóság és a verseny. A törvény 2015. november elsején lépett hatályba, de már azóta többször módosítottak rajta. Egy évvel ezelőtt az Országgyűlés elfogadta az állami projektértékelői jogviszonyról szóló törvényt. A jogszabály célja, hogy az európai uniós források megvalósuló projektek esetében objektív, átlátható és a piaci szereplők érdekeitől független értékelési rendszer jöjjön létre.
A vállalat értékteremtőinek empirikus vizsgálata a globális pénzügyi válság tükrében
Authors: Kiss Anita
Published: June 2017

A tanulmány a vállalati értékteremtésre és az értékteremtő tényezőkre fókuszál. Az alapvető cél az értékteremtők azonosítása és csoportosítása. Mindezeken túl a másik fontos cél továbbá annak vizsgálata, hogy a 2007-2008-as globális pénzügyi válság hatását a vállalati értékre bemutassa. A tanulmány felépítése a következő. Az első rész felvázolja az értékteremtési láncot, az elsődleges és másodlagos tevékenységeket. A második rész a kulcs értékteremtőket jellemzi. A harmadik fejezet illusztrálja a 2007-2008-os globális gazdasági válságot, annak okait, legfontosabb eseményeit és pénzügyi vetületét. A negyedik az empirikus rész, amely az adatbázis körvonalazásával kezdődik, majd a panel regressziós modellen végzett elemzésekkel, azok eredményeinek közlésével folytatódik. Az adatbázis 18 európai ország, 10 szektorának 1553 vállalati adatait tartalmazza, 2004-2011 között időtartamban. Végül az ötödik szerkezeti részben a következtetések kerülnek megfogalmazásra. A vonatkozó, általam feldolgozott irodalmak és az elvégzett empirikus kutatások eredményei arra engednek következtetni, hogy a 2008-as év egyértelműen a válság évének tekinthető. Ebben az évben valamennyi magyarázó változó negatívan hatott az eredményváltozóra, a vállalatok üzleti értékére.
A termelésirányítási rendszer hatékonyságának vizsgálata
Authors: Oláh Judit , Erdei Edina , Popp József
Published: June 2017

A technológiai fejlődésnek köszönhetően egyre fokozódó, felgyorsuló piaci verseny alakult ki a vállalatok között. Ezen verseny nemcsak a logisztikai folyamatokban, hanem a termeléssel kapcsolatos kérdésekben is jelentősnek tűnik, hiszen a termelővállalatok középpontját jelentik az értékesítésnek, és nélkülük nem teremthetők meg a logisztika folyamataiban fellelhető értékesítési cikkek. A termelés optimalizálásának, hatékonyságának a szerepe az ellátási láncban folyamatosan nő, ugyanis a vállalat költségeinek jelentős része itt képződik. Kutatási célkitűzésünk egy különböző gyártási, szerelési technológiákat alkalmazó vállalat eszközeinek hatékonyság vizsgálata az SAP Business One, illetve a svájci eredetű, napjainkban megjelent PPS One rendszerrel. Ezen alkalmazások segítségével a kifejezetten gyártással és termelésirányítással foglalkozó vállalatok számára adtunk megoldást a munkafolyamataik optimalizálására, tevékenységeik, műveleteik megszervezésére, alapanyagaik felügyelésére és ellenőrzésére. Megfigyeltük a termeléstechnológia elemek közül a kapacitástervezést, gyártási utasításokat, ütemezéseket, gyártás nyomonkövetést és költségszámítást. Az elemzés során olyan javaslatokat tettünk, amelyek a stratégia javításával a vállalkozás versenyképességét, valamint üzleti tevékenységének eredményességét növelik, mindemellett megkönnyítik a vállalat készletgazdálkodási és árazási tevékenységét.

Authors: Sztányi Róbert
Published: June 2017

Tanulmányomban megvizsgálom az építőipari termelés és azon belül is a lakásépítést befolyásoló tényezőket 1921- től napjainkig. Ezen számok tükrében az építőiparban dolgozók számának folyamatos változásait értékelem, illetve hogy a vizsgált körülményekre hogyan tud reagálni a munkaerőpiac. A cikkben célom rámutatni, hogy a különböző hatásokra a szakemberek száma nem tud rugalmasan változni. A nagyobb  beruházási években, illetve a jobb kereseti lehetőség miatt kivándorolt szakemberek hiánya komoly gondot okoz. Ennek ellentétes pólusa, amikor a gazdasági válság éveiben a beruházási kedv hiányában munkaerő  többlettel rendelkezik az építőipar.

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to analyze the negative campaign carried out on Facebook by the two main candidates running for Brazilian Presidency in 2014, Dilma Rousseff and Aécio Neves, comparing the strategies during the pre-campaign and campaign periods. The investigation is conducted by collecting the posts published in the official fanpages of the two candidates (N=3,907) between 6 April and 26 October. Content analysis’ and discourse analysis’ techniques are taken into consideration in order to check the posts that present information with the potential to negatively affect the image of the rivals. The posts are then categorized based on frequency, author, target and focus of the attacks. The results indicate an increase in criticism during the dispute; the alternation between Dilma and Aécio as the biggest sponsors; the reciprocity of one another in the condition of main targets; and the preference of both by political attacks.
