I shall base my comments on my experience as major economic adviser in the design of South Korea’s Second Five Year Plan, which changed its policy orientation radically.. In interpreting Korea’s strategy, I shall also draw upon my comparative and historical statistical studies ( with Professor Cynthia Taft Morris) on how interactions among economic, social and political institutions change syst...

The medical information system has been applied in hospitals widely, which makes hospitals acquire notable management benefit and economic benefit. When hospitals enjoy the quick service decision and convenient management because of informationization, they are also in the danger of data loss. Data disaster recovery is the guarantee of the hospital informationization construction, and the base ...

NCVER found a variety of problems and limitations with existing arrangements: few RTOs apart from the large public sector institutions could guarantee that their records would be retrievable in 30 years time. There is little protection for learners when an RTO closes suddenly. The recent collapse of a large Victorian registered RTO, affecting over 1,400 students across Australia, has demonstrat...

Warning systems are technically, socially, and organizationally shaped and rest on specific assumptions concerning human behavior during disasters. The common notions about people’s behavior in disaster situations are often not based on empirical data, but rather on so-called “myths” which overemphasize rare and situation-dependent extreme behaviors such as panic, disaster shock, looting or hel...

This short paper investigates possibility of data recovery for classes of finite sequences under a special discretization of the spectrum range or a special discretization of the process range. It is shown that these sequences can be dense in the space of all sequences and that the uniqueness sets for them can be singletons.

We describe the principles of a device comprised of a static camera and rotating plane mirror that enables the passive recovery of 3D range information. The range recovery can be regarded as either structure from known motion or as virtual multi-camera stereo. Two advantages of the arrangement are that the camera-mirror system is compact and that range information can be recovered over a wide, ...

As anyone who has ever tried to tango knows, the first few steps are fairly easy and can lull someone into a false sense of accomplishment before the more complicated steps begin. Similarly, Argentina is in the midst of the first few steps of a recovery—the easy part. If Argentina wants to successfully complete this dance and have a sustained economic recovery, it needs to undertake the more di...
