The environmental aspect is now a significant element in polluting companies' management choices. laws defined by the establishment of standards and requirements to guarantee minimally contaminated environment are applicable these companies. These have encouraged companies implement systems. According concepts, our research aimed at assessing improvement productivity working agrarian sector ado...

This paper presents a new energy management system (EMS) for an islanded microgrid (MG) to increase power security cost-effectively. The small size of MGs, variations in renewable sources (RESs) output power, and low inertia electronic interfaced distributed resources (DERs) convert voltage fluctuations into vital issue the MG EMS. proposes two-stage stochastic multiobjective framework simultan...

As promising solutions to various social and environmental issues, the generation integration of renewable energy (RE) into microgrids (MGs) has recently increased due rapidly growing consumption electric power. However, such can affect stability security power systems its complexity intermittency. Therefore, an optimal control approach is essential ensure efficiency, reliability, quality deliv...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is partnering with the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors and the North Carolina Office of EMS to design, develop, and implement an emergency medical services (EMS) performance improvement toolkit to evaluate opportunities to improve the emergency identification and treatment of acute stroke. The EMS Acute Stroke Care Toolkit is bein...

The future of the grid includes distributed generation and smart grid technologies. Demand Side Management (DSM) systems will also be essential to achieve a high level of reliability and robustness in power systems. To do that, expanding the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Energy Management Systems (EMS) are necessary. The trend direction is towards the creation of energy resource hu...

A new trend in environmental policy has emerged in the 1990’s. This trend is the voluntary participation of business in environmental protection and problem-solving. So-called environmental management system principles and standards are being developed and certified in many countries. A reasonable number of corporations have already introduced this system. Voluntary agreements between industry ...

Over the last two decades, use of mobile communications for emergency services (e.g. 911) has grown exponentially. This rise of mobile networks has increased reliance on new private and public partnerships to deliver these time critical services. Drawing upon complex systems theory and Interorganizational Systems (IOS) dynamics, a framework is developed for investigating technology, organizatio...

Environmental concerns over the effects of construction sector activities necessitate meaningful measures to be taken. Despite worldwide increases in uptake environmental management systems (EMS), implementation EMS across U.S. remains slow. To date, stakeholder opinions about remain unexplored. The purpose this study is investigate views stakeholders towards benefits and barriers implementing ...
