Two-band fast Hartley transform

This article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.Efficient algorithms have been developed over the past 30 years for computing the forward and inverse discrete Hartley transforms (DHTs). These are similar to the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithms for computing the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). Most of these methods seek to minimise the complexity of computations and or the number of operations. A new approach for the computation of the radix-2 fast Hartley transform (FHT) is presented. The proposed algorithm, based on a two-band decomposition of the input data, possesses a very regular structure, avoids the input or out data shuffling, requires slightly less multiplications than the existing approaches, but increases the number of additions

THE PLACE OF LIABILITY IN RESPECT TO THE FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION

The terms ‘freedom’ and ‘liability’ are polysemantic and bear multi-valent meaningsaccording to the field.Civil or criminal liability, through the interdictions it brings, sets the border betweenthe legal or illegal discourse. The guilt defined by criminal and civil crimes transfers a set ofobligations to the communicator1. Terms like ‘excess’ or ‘abuse’ of the freedom of expressionis another way to define it.We shall try hereinafter to answer the question whether it is better to regulate andengage the civil liability or criminal liability in relation to the freedom of expression

PROTECTION OF EXTRAPATRIMONIAL RIGHTS IN THE NEW CIVIL CODE

The New Romanian Civil Code, entered into force on 1 October 200, adopted by LawNo. 287/2009 and implemented by Law No. 71/2011 integrates the personality rights in tonon-patrimonial rights. Considering that personality rights cannot be confused with personalrights and does not integrate the heritage of the person, shall be assessed better their namingextrapatrimonial rights.The measures which may be ordered by the Court for the protection of these rightsconsists either in the prohibition of unlawful deed, whether it is imminent, or cessation of theinfringement and the prohibition for the future if it lasts still or finding illicit character of thecommitted offence, if disturbing that produced it subsists. The exception to the rule is given incases of infringement of the rights of non-patrimonial rights by exercising the right to freespeech, according to which the Court cannot order banning of illicit acts.In the first part of the article we present a brief analysis of personality rights, and inthe second part we present the analysis of extrapatrimonial rights (non-patrimonial rights)defenses

Categories set for assessment of functional status, disability and health of children with lung pathology - practical tools derived from international classification of functioning, disability and health in children and adolescents

Instituţia Medico-Sanitară Publică Institutul Mamei și CopiluluiObiectiv: Developing a comprehensive ICF core set for assessing the degree of disability in children derived from the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health in children and adolescents, recommended by WHO (2007). Material and method: To obtain a consensus opinion was used Delphi exercise (structured questionnaires) in a group of 447 professionals. The experts answered an elaborated structured questionnaire (Delphi methodology) in three rounds. The number of experts decreased gradually after each round so that in the final discussion of consensus remained the experts with the highest specialization and skills. Results: From the point of view of experts, 46 ICF categories have been identified - 13 ICF categories of body functions compartment - 5 categories of second-level, 7 categories of third-level and one level IV category; 4 ICF categories that relate to the body structure - 3 of them of a second-level and one of the third level; 9 ICF categories on activities and participation compartment - 3 categories of II Level and 6 of third - Level; 20 ICF categories on environmental factors compartment – 17 of them of second-level and 3 of third-level. Conclusions: opinion survey study resulted in the development of Comprehensive ICF categories core set for chronic lung pathology in children that will be used for the evaluation and assessment objectification of health, functioning, and disability of children of the respective group.Цель исследования: разработать пакет категорий МКФ (Международной классификации функционирования, ограничений жизнедеятельности и здоровья детей и подростков, ВОЗ, 2007), для объективной оценки степени инвалидности у детей с хронической бронхо-легочной патологией. Материалы и методы: чтобы достигнуть консенсуса, было проведено изучение мнения 447 специалистов с использованием метода Delphi (метод структурированного интервью). В течение трех раундов экспертам предлагалось ответить на вопросы специально разработанных анкет. Круг специалистов с каждым раундом сужался, и консенсуальное решение принималось после обсуждения наиболее квалифицированными экспертами. Результаты: на основании консенсуального мнения экспертов был определен набор из 46 категорий МДФДП, наиболее значимых для оценки степени инвалидности у детей с хронической бронхо-легочной патологией: 13 категорий МДФ из раздела, касающегося функций организма (5 категорий II уровня, семь категорий III уровня и одна категория IV уровня); 4 категории МДФ из раздела о структуре тела (3 категории II уровня и одна категория III уровня); 9 категорий МДФ относятся к разделу активность и участие (3 категории II уровня и 6 категорий III уровня) и 20 категории из раздела, касающегося факторов окружающей среды (17 категорий II уровня и 3 – III уровня). Вывод: в результате изучения мнения специалистов был разработан полный Пакет категорий МКФ-ДП для детей с хронической бронхо-легочной патологией, который позволит объективизировать процесс установления степени инвалидности

CHIPER, Natalia. Impactul politicii fiscale asupra sustenabilității fiscale. În: Simpozion ştiinţific al tinerilor cercetători (19-20 iunie 2020) [online]: Lucrări ştiinţifice. Ediţia a 18-a. Chişinău: ASEM, 2020, pp. 55-58. ISBN 978-9975-75-975-5.Fiscal sustainability is the capacity of a state to cover its current expenses, taking into account the risk of default on part of the debts. The global economic and financial crisis has shown how important fiscal-budgetary sustainability is. Keeping public debt under control is essential to the smooth functioning of the economy. The purpose of the research is to highlight the impact of fiscal policy on fiscal sustainability. In the research process, mainly economic and mathematical methods were used. The fiscal policy must be correlated with the level of economic development of the country. The main challenge for fiscal sustainability is the low collection of budget revenues that influence the level of public debt. JEL: H21, H6

Strategii de motivare a angajaților în organizațiile din Republica Moldova: practici și provocări manageriale

Succesul în orice domeniu al activității socio -economice poate fi asigurat doar prin utilizarea rațională și eficientă a resurselor umane. În acest sens, este deosebit de important ca toate activitățile din acest domeniu să fie desfășurate profesional, intenționat și în conformitate cu misiunea companiei. Fiecare companie se străduiește să-și consolideze poziția pe piață, ceea ce poate fi atins oferind produse de o calitate ireproșabilă, urmărind prețuri competitive și oferind clienților confort. Calitatea produselor oferite de o companie este determinata de calitatea activităților desfășurate de angajații unei anumite entități economice. Într-o organizație este foarte important ca factorul uman să i se acorde atenția cuvenită, adică să fie motivat și organizat în așa fel încât atât angajații, cât și compania să atingă obiectivele stabilite pentru ei. De menționat că în majoritatea organizațiilor private sistemul de motivare este destul de funcțional, dar în administrația publică sistemul de salarizare și motivare a personalului este stabilit prin lege. Prin urmare, este puțin mai dificil să motivezi angajații, mai ales din cauza salariului lor. În principiu, această modalitate de motivare este determinată de cadrul legal actual. Motivația are o importanță deosebită în activitățile individului. Managerii pot avea succes în munca lor dacă dezvoltă o bună înțelegere a rolului.Success in any field of socio-economic activity can only be ensured through the rational and efficient use of human resources. In this regard, it is particularly important that all activities in this area are carried out professionally, purposefully and in accordance with the company's mission. Every company strives to strengthen its position in the market, which can be achieved by offering products of impeccable quality, pursuing competitive prices and providing customers with convenience. The quality of the products offered by a company is determined by the quality of the activities carried out by the employees of a certain economic entity. In an organization it is very important that the human factor is given due attention, that is, it is motivated and organized in such a way that both the employees and the company achieve the goals set for them. It should be noted that in most private organizations the motivation system is quite functional, but in the public administration the staff salary and motivation system is established by law. Therefore, it is a little more difficult to motivate employees, especially because of their salary. In principle, this method of motivation is determined by the current legal framework. Motivation is of particular importance in the activities of the individual. Managers can be successful in their work if they develop a good understanding of the role

Une société à la recherche de l’honneur. Le duel dans la Roumanie de l’ancien Royaume (1859-1912)

Le duel, rituel qui connaît d’importantes mutations au XIXe siècle, fut longtemps négligé par les historiens roumains. Or, l’historiographie occidentale récente autorise une meilleure compréhension de sa place dans le processus de « civilisation des mœurs ». Une enquête lancée à partir de plusieurs sources sur l’espace roumain de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle et du début du XXe siècle éclaire certains aspects de la pratique sociale du duel. Elle permet d’expliquer sa diffusion au sein d’une élite large et hétérogène, composée non seulement d’aristocrates, de militaires, mais aussi de hauts fonctionnaires, d’hommes politiques, de journalistes et d’étudiants. Ce travail révèle aussi l’influence du modèle français et la tolérance sociale qui entoure le duel. Il étudie les questions de prestige et de norme, d’identité et d’appartenance qui structurent la société roumaine de l’ancien Royaume.As a social ritual that went through many transformations, the duel was neglected by Romanian historians although the results of the other European historiographies allow to understand better its position in the civilization of manners process. A research launched on several sources of the Romanian space of the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries reveal aspects that explain its popularity within a heterogeneous elite, which consisted not only in members of the aristocraty or the army, but also in government officials, journalists or students. This work reveals the influence of the French pattern of duelling and its consequences, as well as the issues of standard and prestige, identity and belonging which structured the Romanian society of the old Kingdom.Rumänische Historiker haben das soziale Ritual des Duells, das vielen Veränderungen unterworfen war, vernachlässigt, obwohl andere europäische Historiographien seinen Beitrag zum Prozess der Zivilisation beleuchtet haben. Eine Untersuchung verschiedener Quellen aus dem rumänischen Raum der zweiten Hälfte des 19. und des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts erklärt die Popularität des Duells innerhalb einer heterogenen Elite ; diese bestand nicht nur aus Mitgliedern des Adels und des Militärs, sondern auch aus hohen Beamten, Journalisten und Studenten. Dieser Artikel behandelt den französischen Einfluss auf die Art des Duells sowie Konsequenzen, Fragen nach Prestige und Norm, Identität und Zugehörigkeit, die die rumänische Gesellschaft des ehemaligen Königreiches prägten
