Strategic Drivers Of Software Quality: Beyond External And Internal Software Quality, Ronan Fitzpatrick Jan 2001

Strategic Drivers Of Software Quality: Beyond External And Internal Software Quality, Ronan Fitzpatrick

Conference papers

Software quality is often considered in terms of the contractual requirements between the supplier and acquirer as described in ISO/IEC 12207 and focuses on software life cycle processes. However, beyond these processes acquirer organisations need to address other issues like complying with new legislation, securing return on investment, and achieving competitive support from their new software investments. Supplier organisations also have issues that they must manage. This paper addresses all of these issues and presents eleven issues, which it calls strategic drivers. Then, using the SOFTWARE QUALITY STAR, builds a new conceptual model where each strategic quality driver is defined …


Applying Event-Condition-Action Mechanism In Healthcare: A Computerised Clinical Test-Ordering Protocol System (Tops), Bing Wu, Kudakwashe Dube Jan 2001

Applying Event-Condition-Action Mechanism In Healthcare: A Computerised Clinical Test-Ordering Protocol System (Tops), Bing Wu, Kudakwashe Dube

Conference papers

This paper addresses issues of the active database application in the challenging healthcare area: the management and execution of computerised clinical practice guidelines/protocols. The problem of how to efficiently and effectively quey and manipulate the computerised clinical protocols/guidelines has posed a major challenge but received little research attention until very recently. By proposing a declarative modelling language (PLAN) with an Event-Condition-Action (ECA) mechanism for clinical test-ordering protocols, and an automatic mapping and management system (TOPS), this paper addresses this issue, in an important medical domain, from a unified approach based on an active rule mechanism. The work presented in this …

The Geography Of Injustice: Borders And The Continuing Immiseration Of California Agricultural Labor In Era Of "Free Trade", Don M. Mitchell Jan 2001

The Geography Of Injustice: Borders And The Continuing Immiseration Of California Agricultural Labor In Era Of "Free Trade", Don M. Mitchell

Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business

Why is it that when the reigning ideology governing the expansion of “free trade” is anti-regulatory”, all agree that the movement of people, or rather laborers, must be carefully regulated? Indeed, why are borders strengthened for people just as states of the Western Hemisphere embark on a thorough reconfiguration, and even a dismantling, or borders for capital and goods.

Foreign Investment Companies Limited By Shares: The Latest Chinese Organization For Major International Ventures, Jim Jinpeng Zhang, Jung Y. Lowe Jan 2001

Foreign Investment Companies Limited By Shares: The Latest Chinese Organization For Major International Ventures, Jim Jinpeng Zhang, Jung Y. Lowe

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Foreign Investment Companies Limited By Shares ("FICLBS") is one of the most important recent innovations in the People's Republic of China's ("China") foreign-invested enterprises law. Since January 10, 1995, China has authorized use of the FICLBS and, for the first time, it more closely resembles major corporate organizations used by international foreign investors.! So far over eighteen FICLBS have been approved for operation through 1999, with combined actual foreign investment of USD 1.2 billion.2 FICLBS has the potential to be the ideal organization for major international investment in China after it joins the World Trade Organization. The FICLBS can issue …


Multinational Regulatory Competition And Single-Stock Futures , Frank Partnoy Jan 2001

Multinational Regulatory Competition And Single-Stock Futures , Frank Partnoy

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Whereas these first two forms of regulatory competition are well documented and covered in the legal literature, the third form - which I call "multinational regulatory competition" - is newer and more difficult to characterize. Accordingly, any claims about future regulatory competition in this form necessarily are speculative. By "multinational regulatory competition," I mean competition occurring when a group of regulators from more than one sovereign forms a partnership as a multinational regulator and then seeks to compete with other groups of regulators, also formed from more than one sovereign. There is some recent empirical evidence that regulatory trends in …

Art Criticism

v. : ill. ; 22 cm (original analog pub.),If Art Criticism meets some of its editors’ hopes for it, we shall be able to claim the appearance of some art criticism, with subjects arising from the writers’ or editors’ decisions, rather than the art market’s. Articles on individual critics and on current groups and tendencies will lead towards the adequate history of art criticism so badly needed in relation to art and in relation to the literature of other disciplines.

The Capacity Of The Electronics Industry For Closing The Lifecycle Look: Assessing The Infrastucture For The Recovery And Recycling Of Electronics In The Unites States, Patricia Donohue Jan 2001

The Capacity Of The Electronics Industry For Closing The Lifecycle Look: Assessing The Infrastucture For The Recovery And Recycling Of Electronics In The Unites States, Patricia Donohue

Theses

This work examined why the electronics industry, specifically producers of commercial and consumer equipment, does not complete the product lifecycle by recapturing valuable materials from products when the products reach the end of their useful life. The electronics industry, it seems, is not capable of fully recovering and recycling its products. It lacks the infrastructure, or the underlying foundation, to enable the industry to take back its products and recycle or reuse the components that make up those products. This research identified and examined the various infrastructure deficiencies, including technical and regulatory factors, causing the recovery and recycling of electronic …


Building Dss Using Knowledge Discovery In Database Applied To Admission & Registration Functions, Ahmed Abdel Hameed Hassan El-Ragal Jan 2001

Building Dss Using Knowledge Discovery In Database Applied To Admission & Registration Functions, Ahmed Abdel Hameed Hassan El-Ragal

Plymouth Business School Theses

This research investigates the practical issues surrounding the development and implementation of Decision Support Systems (DSS). The research describes the traditional development approaches analyzing their drawbacks and introduces a new DSS development methodology. The proposed DSS methodology is based upon four modules; needs' analysis, data warehouse (DW), knowledge discovery in database (KDD), and a DSS module. The proposed DSS methodology is applied to and evaluated using the admission and registration functions in Egyptian Universities. The research investigates the organizational requirements that are required to underpin these functions in Egyptian Universities. These requirements have been identified following an in-depth survey of …
