Year: 2019

description: The study assesses the practice and challenges of project planning in the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. The study was conducted based on the data gathered from commercial bank of Ethiopia project management office. Since the number of the staffs of project management office is manageable, census is used. A mixed research approach was employed to answer the research questions that emerged through the review of existing literature. The data obtained through questionnaire has been analyzed using descriptive statistics. To acquire the intended information the researcher used structurally designed questionnaire. The result of the study indicated that most of the projects planning processes are practiced poorly in commercial bank of Ethiopia. The finding also reveals the major challenges that the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia faces in the project planning process. These are: Lack of adequate and effective project time management, lack of integration between projects, lack of experienced project managers, lack of qualified and experienced project teams, lack of project management training, inefficient and insufficient communication between project managers and team member and absence of documenting lessons learned and best practices. The study recommended the bank more effort should be made at the planning stage of the project, more advanced project planning tools and techniques should be applied while preparing the project plan, the Project management offices need to have project planning department to conduct the project planning activities and to provide training about project planning practice to project managers and project team members on regular basis.

Malaysia has engaged in the de facto and temporary protection of asylum seekers for over 40 years. In recent times, an aspect of its protection efforts that has been the subject of criticism has been the human rights violations encountered by refugees. Within Malaysia’s un-formalised approach to protection, there is also clear evidence of confusion among public actors, who are duty bound to administer the law. This study examined the laws that govern, and the institutions accountable for, humanitarian protection in Malaysia. The object of this investigation was to employ a rule of law framework, to determine the extent to which decision-making concerning refugees by Malaysian authorities is consistent with the Rule of Law. The methods adopted were a doctrinal analysis of common law and statute, combined with a textual analysis of publicly reported secondary material, and personal observations as a practitioner. The first intermediate finding made by this study was that the un-formalised protection that Malaysia grants to refugees can be justified; on the one hand, by the prerogative to regulate entry and, on the other, by the individual’s freedom of movement. Its next finding was that the prerogative to regulate entry and the individual’s freedom of movement have been displaced by statute for the control of immigration. Malaysia’s Immigration Act has clarified Parliament’s intent as regards the prerogative of defence in the interests of national security. As such, it displaces the Executive’s humanitarian endeavours. The symptoms of harms to refugees, and administrative dissonance to public officials, are the result of the failure to reconcile the competing forces of Parliament’s statutory intent and the Executive’s political agenda.

description: We study expected values of the polynomials $P_N^{}(z)=\prod_{1\leq n\leq N}(X_n^2+z^2)$ whose $2N$ zeros $\{\pm i X_k\}^{}_{k=1,...,N}$ are generated by $N$ identically distributed multi-variate mean-zero normal random variables $\{X_k\}^{N}_{k=1}$ with co-variance ${\rm{Cov}}_N^{}(X_k,X_l)=(1+\frac{σ^2-1}{N})δ_{k,l}+\frac{σ^2-1}{N}(1-δ_{k,l})$. In principle these can be evaluated in closed form for arbitrary $N$, yet commonly available computer algebra handles only $N$ up to a dozen (due to memory constraints). A list of the first three expected polynomials shows that the expressions become unwieldy already for moderate $N$. On the other hand, asymptotic evaluations of the large-$N$ regime for complex $z$ have traditionally been limited to analytic expansion techniques, several rigorous results are proved about this regime for complex $z$. Yet if $z$ is real one can also compute the large-$N$ asymptotics in the "infinite-degree" limit with the help of the familiar relative entropy principle for probability measures, a rigorous proof of this fact is supplied. Computer algebra-generated evidence is presented in support of a conjecture that a generalization of the relative entropy principle to *{signed and complex measures}* governs the $N\to\infty$ asymptotics of the regime of imaginary $z$. Potential generalizations, in particular to point vortex ensembles and the prescribed Gauss curvature problem, and to random matrix ensembles, are emphasized.

Year: 2019

description: The purpose of this paper is to assess project risk management practice at Addis Ababa City Road Authority; the study was descriptive by its type and data was obtained using purposive sampling methods; the sample size of the study was determined to be 40 respondents working actively on project from contractors, consultants and the Addis Ababa City Road Authority. Closed-ended questionnaires were administered to respondents while interview with three project managers. The questionnaires covered main aspects of risk management including the overall project risk management, risk identification, risk analysis and risk monitoring and controlling. The finding of the study indicated absence of risk management policy or guideline, lack of responsible person and department to manage risk, no standard risk management process. Moreover risk is managed by the project managers only rather than to be seen as a common prime activity for project manager and consultant and to have specialized risk management team. In line with this risk identification, risk analysis and risk monitoring and controlling aren't undertaken in a way to mitigate project risk that will happen. Somehow in the authority there is an attempt which has been undertaken intuitively to manage project risk rather than scientifically. Some recommendations were given amongst them were the authority shall give emphasis establishing the risk management system, recruiting and providing training for the staff

description: Attempts to find a quantum-to-classical correspondence in a classically forbidden region leads to non-physical paths, involving, for example, complex time or spatial coordinates. Here, we identify genuine quasi-classical paths for tunneling in terms of probabilistic correlations in sequential time-of-arrival measurements. In particular, we construct the post-selected probability density $P_{p.s.}(x, τ)$ for a particle to be found at time $τ$ in position $x$ inside the forbidden region, provided that it later crossed the barrier. The classical paths follow from the maximization of the probability density with respect to $τ$. For almost monochromatic initial states, the paths correspond to the maxima of the modulus square of the wave-function $|ψ(x,τ)|^2$ with respect to $τ$ and for constant $x$ inside the barrier region. The derived paths are expressed in terms of classical equations, but they have no analogues in classical mechanics. Finally, we evaluate the paths explicitly for the case of a square potential barrier.

Perturbativity vs non-perturbativity in QED-effects for H-like atoms with $Zα>1$

description: The behavior of levels near the threshold of the lower continuum in superheavy H-like atoms with $Zα>1$, caused by the interaction $ΔU_{AMM}$ of the electron's magnetic anomaly (AMM) dynamically screened at small distances $ \ll 1/m$, with the Coulomb field of atomic nucleus is considered by taking into account the complete dependence of electron's wavefunction (WF) on $Zα$. It is shown that the calculation of the contribution caused by $ΔU_{AMM}$ via both the quark structure and the whole nucleus, considered as a uniformly charged extended Coulomb source, leads to results, which coincide within the accepted precision of calculations. It is shown also that there appears some difference in results between perturbative and non-perturbative methods of accounting for the contribution from $ΔU_{AMM}$ within the corresponding Dirac equation (DE) in favor of the latter. Moreover, the growth rate of the contribution from $ΔU_{AMM}$ reaches its maximum at $ Z \sim 140-150$, while by further increase of $Z$ into the supercritical region $Z\gg Z_{cr,1}$ the shift of levels caused by $ΔU_{AMM}$ near the lower continuum decreases monotonically to zero. The last result is generalized to the whole self-energy contribution to the shift of levels and so to the possible behavior of radiative QED-effects with virtual photon exchange near the lower continuum.

Decay widths of bottomonium states in matter -- a field theoretic model for composite hadrons

description: We compute the in-medium partial decay widths of the bottomonium states to open bottom mesons ($B\bar B$) using a field theoretical model for composite hadrons with quark constituents. These decay widths are calculated by using the explicit constructions for the bottomonium states and the open bottom mesons ($B$ and $\bar B$), and, the quark antiquark pair creation term of the free Dirac Hamiltonian written in terms of the constituent quark field operators. These decay widths in the hadronic medium are calculated as arising from the mass modifications of the bottomonium states and the $B$ and $\bar B$ mesons, obtained in a chiral effective model. The decay amplitude in the present model is multiplied with a strength parameter for the light quark pair creation, which is fitted from the observed vacuum partial decay width of the bottomonium state, $Υ(4S)$ to $B\bar B$. The effects of the isospin asymmetry, the strangeness fraction of the hadronic matter on the decay widths, arising due to the mass modifications due to these effects, have also been studied. There is observed to be appreciable effects from density, and the effects from isospin asymmetry on the parital decay widths of $Υ\rightarrow B\bar B$ are observed to be quite pronounced at high densities. These effects should show up in the asymmetric heavy ion collisions in Compressed baryonic matter (CBM) experiments planned at the future facility at FAIR. The study of the $Υ$ states will, however, require access to energies higher than the energy regime planned at the CBM experiment. The density effects on the decay widths of the bottomonium states should show up in the production of these states, as well as, in dilepton spectra at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) energies.

We describe all invertible (equivalently, surjective) weighted composition operators acting on such spaces. For the spaces of analytic functions in the disk whose norm is given in terms of a natural seminorm (such as the typical spaces given in terms of derivatives), we describe all surjective weighted composition operators that are isometric. This generalizes a number of known results.

description: The aim of this research project (thesis) is to develop an understanding of the theoretical basis and practical implementation of stakeholder management in AAHDPO and to identify the challenges are there in managing stakeholder at Bole Arrabesa. A literature reviews on the topic related to the stakeholder management was conducted. A survey questionnaire was carried out among professionals in the AAHDPO. (55) questionnaires were distributed to HDPO, Consultant and Contractor and (45) questionnaire were collected. In AAHDPO personal past experience is the most effective approach to analysis stakeholders needs and concern. Engaging stakeholder in AAHDPO the workshop is the most effective method. The compromising strategy, influence strategy, and adaptation strategy are effective in response to the stakeholder"s claims. The major success factors that influence stakeholder management process in AAHDPO at Bole Arrabesa are implementing the strategy based on schedule plan, Ensuring effective communication between the project and its stakeholder, and determine the stakeholder knowledge. Effectively practiced the stakeholder management in AAHDPO at Bole Arrabesa will facilitate project success. One of the main recommendations of this research is the AAHDPO project managers should be aware of the stakeholder management process to manage stakeholders effectively. So, they have to keep communication with stakeholders and build relationship based on the mutual trust, in the same time to involve them in the decision making according to their interest issue.

Late-time acceleration with a scalar field source: Observational constraints and statefinder diagnostics

description: This article discusses a dark energy cosmological model in the standard theory of gravity - general relativity with a broad scalar field as a source. Exact solutions of Einstein's field equations are derived by considering a particular form of deceleration parameter $q$, which shows a smooth transition from decelerated to accelerated phase in the evolution of the universe. The external datasets such as Hubble ($H(z)$) datasets, Supernovae (SN) datasets, and Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) datasets are used for constraining the model par parameters appearing in the functional form of $q$. The transition redshift is obtained at $% z_{t}=0.67_{-0.36}^{+0.26}$ for the combined data set ($H(z)+SN+BAO$), where the model shows signature-flipping and is consistent with recent observations. Moreover, the present value of the deceleration parameter comes out to be $q_{0}=-0.50_{-0.11}^{+0.12}$ and the jerk parameter $% j_{0}=-0.98_{-0.02}^{+0.06}$ (close to 1) for the combined datasets, which is compatible as per Planck2018 results. The analysis also constrains the omega value i.e., $Ω_{m_{0}}\leq 0.269$ for the smooth evolution of the scalar field EoS parameter. It is seen that energy density is higher for the effective energy density of the matter field than energy density in the presence of a scalar field. The evolution of the physical and geometrical parameters is discussed in some details with the model parameters' numerical constrained values. Moreover, we have performed the state-finder analysis to investigate the nature of dark energy.

description: We investigate entanglement entropy in a scalar field theory on the fuzzy sphere. The theory is realized by a matrix model. In our previous study, we confirmed that entanglement entropy in the free case is proportional to the square of the boundary area of a focused region. Here we argue that this behavior of entanglement entropy can be understood by the fact that the theory is regularized by matrices, and further examine the dependence of entanglement entropy on the matrix size. In the interacting case, by performing Monte Carlo simulations, we observe a transition from a generalized volume law, which is obtained by integrating the square of area law, to the square of area law.

Assessing The Implementation Of Kaizen Project In A Public Inter-Governmental Context: The Case Of The African Union Commission (AUC)

Year: 2017

description: Organizations today are operating in a more competitive environment and adapting increasingly to various challenges in the environment. This calls for the implementation of change either in a radical manner, or on a small-scale in a continuous manner. For any organization to be efficient and effective, it is generally necessary to strive for the development of processes that track and document why organizational changes are necessary; why the changes mark improvement within the organization; and how to continuously refine and re-evaluate what the organization is doing to achieve its mission (Sackmann, 1997). Kaizen, a Japanese business management concept that calls for continuous improvement has been implemented in the African Union Commission (AUC) to improve organizational efficiency by standardizing work procedures and eliminating wasteful activities through a collective effort. The implementation of Kaizen does not offer a quick fix to a problem and the fruits often take time to be realized. Also, Kaizen projects often require large amount of funding to enable among others, training of the employees. Hence the implementation process becomes a very important stage for the eventual success of the programs. Organizational literature shows that the experience of public and private sector institutions that have implemented Kaizen has not always been positive. Failure is frequently identified as the implementation issue, rather than failure of the concept and theory of Kaizen. The aim of this research is to assess the implementation of Kaizen project in the context of inter-governmental and multi-cultural organization such as the African Union Commission. The study relies on a consolidated theory on critical measurement variables of Kaizen as the main theoretical framework. The study was also narrowed down to the implementation of Kaizen project, as a major case study on how the measurement variables manifest themselves in the implementation of Kaizen at the African Union Commissions.The study is a descriptive case study that uses cross-sectional panel data (quantitative) and synthesization of qualitative data. Using a Systematic Random sampling technique, 131 respondents (employees) were selected from a total population of 1743, with the sampling frame of 700. Primary data was collected using a Self-Administered Questionnaire (SAQ) complemented by a Semi-Structured interview which was then subjected to subsequent statistical analysis using SPSS –version 20. This was augmented by the review of existing literature. Research findings generally reveal that various challenges exist, some of which are common to single-government organizations and others which are specifically created by the multi-national and multi-cultural environment. The study recommends strategies and approaches for the management of the AUC as it drives its continuous improvement initiatives
Social support and the experience of living with HIV for women in Australia

Social connections are the basis of society and the support they deliver is especially important for people living with HIV (PLH). Women living with HIV (WLH) in Australia are marginal in the HIV population; they are diverse and less likely than men to know others with HIV. HIV organisations have limited resources and services dedicated to WLH and little is known about their needs. WLH in Australia experience a range of social inequalities that may compromise their access to essential social connections and support. This thesis examines the social support and contemporary experiences of WLH. Interviews were conducted with 60 WLH from four Australian states, and information gathered about them and up to twelve people important to them. A description of the 60 participants was compiled and reduced to nine composite profiles generated from 42 categorical variables using correspondence analysis techniques. The social networks generated from WLH ranged in size from three to twelve, with a median of eight, and a total of 467 people. Of these, 40 percent were family members, 29 percent friends, 14 percent healthcare providers, 12 percent intimate or ex-intimate partners and 4 percent were co-workers. Overall, 80 percent had knowledge of the participant’s HIV status and there were striking similarities in a range of factors between each participant and their network members (homophily and social influence). Six types of social support were analysed. Multilevel modelling established that the personal networks significantly explained social support; as did the type of social relationship, the centrality of network members and whether they had knowledge of the interviewee’s HIV status. The findings from this research have provided a social view of WLH in Australia. They make an original and substantial contribution to the HIV literature, and to service providers to develop novel interventions to improve the social well-being of WLH.

description: This project work is about an assessment of construction contract administration practices in concrete pole factory expansion projects of Kabew Construction Private limited company. Thus, the researcher came up with a major research gap of which the effectiveness of the force account contract administration on the project's time, cost, quality management, team members accountability, authority and handling of variation of work . The methodology used convenience sampling & was designed as semi-structured interview and two principal ways of conducting research are used for the analysis; namely; through the methods of literature review and interviewing "experts" in the subject; where, narrations method is used for the reformulation of stories presented by respondents taking into account context of each case and different experiences of each respondent with content analysis. For triangulation, secondary data were also greatly used .The qualitative research came up with a finding that principal or owner commitment, competence & experience of the contract administrator, understanding contract documents, frequent meetings & communications, regular quality assurance & control, adequate human resource capacity & appropriate choice of contract delivery method had a significant impact in the execution of the projects with regard to the contract administration of the expansion projects. Moreover, critical success factors in contract management that can provide valuable recommendations for improving organizational success in managing projects & contracts are covered.

description: User engagement has recently received significant attention in understanding the decay and expansion of communities in many online social networking platforms. When a user chooses to leave a social networking platform, it may cause a cascading dropping out among her friends. In many scenarios, it would be a good idea to persuade critical users to stay active in the network and prevent such a cascade because critical users can have significant influence on user engagement of the whole network. Many user engagement studies have been conducted to find a set of critical (anchored) users in the static social network. However, social networks are highly dynamic and their structures are continuously evolving. In order to fully utilize the power of anchored users in evolving networks, existing studies have to mine multiple sets of anchored users at different times, which incurs an expensive computational cost. To better understand user engagement in evolving network, we target a new research problem called Anchored Vertex Tracking (AVT) in this paper, aiming to track the anchored users at each timestamp of evolving networks. Nonetheless, it is nontrivial to handle the AVT problem which we have proved to be NP-hard. To address the challenge, we develop a greedy algorithm inspired by the previous anchored k-core study in the static networks. Furthermore, we design an incremental algorithm to efficiently solve the AVT problem by utilizing the smoothness of the network structure's evolution. The extensive experiments conducted on real and synthetic datasets demonstrate the performance of our proposed algorithms and the effectiveness in solving the AVT problem.

description: Semiconductors offer a promising platform for physical implementation of qubits, but their broad adoption is presently hindered by limited scalability and/or very low operating temperatures. Learning from the nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond, our goal is to find equivalent optically active point defect centers in crystalline silicon, which could be advantageous for their scalability and integration with classical devices. Transition metal (TM) impurities in silicon are common paramagnetic deep defects, but a comprehensive theoretical study of the whole 3$d$ series that considers generalized Koopmans' condition is missing. We apply the HSE06(+U) method to examine their potential as optically active spin qubits and identify seven TM impurities that have optically allowed triplet-triplet transitions within the silicon band gap. These results provide the first step toward silicon-based qubits with higher operating temperatures for quantum sensing. Additionally, these point defects could lead to spin-photon interfaces in silicon-based qubits and devices for mid-infrared free-space communications.

description: The paper presents a new Kalman filter (KF) implementation useful in applications where the accuracy of numerical solution of the associated Riccati equation might be crucially reduced by influence of roundoff errors. Since the appearance of the KF in 1960s, it has been recognized that the factored-form of the KF is preferable for practical implementation. The most popular and beneficial techniques are found in the class of square-root algorithms based on the Cholesky decomposition of error covariance matrix. Another important matrix factorization method is the singular value decomposition (SVD) and, hence, further encouraging implementations might be found under this approach. The analysis presented here exposes that the previously proposed SVD-based KF variant is still sensitive to roundoff errors and poorly treats ill-conditioned situations, although the SVD-based strategy is inherently more stable than the conventional KF approach. In this paper we design a new SVD-based KF implementation for enhancing the robustness against roundoff errors, provide its detailed derivation, and discuss the numerical stability issues. A set of numerical experiments are performed for comparative study. The obtained results illustrate that the new SVD-based method is algebraically equivalent to the conventional KF and to the previously proposed SVD-based method, but it outperforms the mentioned techniques for estimation accuracy in ill-conditioned situations.

description: We investigate a two-dimensional Schrödinger operator, $-h^2 Δ+iV(x)$, with a purely complex potential $iV(x)$. A rigorous definition of this non-selfadjoint operator is provided for bounded and unbounded domains with common boundary conditions (Dirichlet, Neumann, Robin and transmission). We propose a general perturbative approach to construct its quasimodes in the semi-classical limit. An alternative WKB construction is also discussed. These approaches are local and thus valid for both bounded and unbounded domains, allowing one to compute the approximate eigenvalues to any order in the small $h$ limit. The general results are further illustrated on the particular case of the Bloch-Torrey operator, $-h^2Δ+ ix_1$, for which a four-term asymptotics is explicitly computed. Its high accuracy is confirmed by a numerical computation of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of this operator for a disk and circular annuli. The localization of eigenfunctions near the specific boundary points is revealed. Some applications in the field of diffusion nuclear magnetic resonance are discussed.

description: We show that carbon nanotubes (CNT) can be driven through a topological phase transition using either strain or a magnetic field. This can naturally lead to Jackiw-Rebbi soliton states carrying fractionalized charges, similar to those found in a domain wall in the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model, in a setup with a spatially inhomogeneous strain and an axial field. Two types of fractionalized states can be formed at the interface between regions with different strain: a spin-charge separated state with integer charge and spin zero (or zero charge and spin $\pm \hbar/2$), and a state with charge $\pm e/2$ and spin $\pm \hbar/4$. The latter state requires spin-orbit coupling in the CNT. We show that in our setup, the precise quantization of the fractionalized interface charges is a consequence of the symmetry of the CNT under a combination of a spatial rotation by $π$ and time reversal. Finally, we comment on the effects of many-body interaction on this phenomena.
