Control and evaluation are major secrets of an organization's survival.Universities, as research and educational organizations, need to be evaluated in order to survive. The results of educational activities encompass a vast spectrum including the graduates, researchers and planners, scientific publications, as well as satisfaction of students, parents, profossors and staff (Ramsden, 1996).Th...

The Web-at-Risk project is a digital preservation project funded by the Library of Congress as part of the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program. The project is developing a web archiving service to enable curators to build, store, and manage archived collections of web-published materials captured largely from US federal and state government agency web sites.

Purpose Scandals in the Australian financial services industry highlight conflicts of interest between those who provide advice (financial planners) and their clients. Disclosure is a potential governance tool to manage these by reducing asymmetries information. Yet, efficacy disclosure questionable as scandals persist, so this paper aims research effectiveness planning. Design/methodology/appr...

The numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction phenomena is increasingly important because this problems occurs in many fields of engineering. The computational treatment of the free surface and of the interface between solid and fluid in fluid-structure interaction is always critical. The Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method (ALE) in which the movement of the fluid particles is indepe...
