THE EUROPEAN FUNDS – AN ANTI-CRISIS MEASURE AT THE MOMENT

The European funds do not represent an inward purpose, but instruments in reaching the objectives established at the level of the European Union, of the EU member state, based on the implementation documents. The access to Social and Cohesion Funds offers Romania a possibility to develop the regions which are lagging behind, to modernize transport and environment infrastructure, to support rural development, to create new employment opportunities, to sustain social policies which will lead to the growth of the standard of life. The non-reimbursable structural assistance is more the support replaces an important part of the financial effort that should be done by a state on its own, the more helpful and precious is. This research work displays diverse aspects concerning the implementation modalities of irredeemable funds. Furthermore, the existence of a strong institutional structure was absolutely necessary, capable to ensure the formulation and application of public policies, to keep the coordination processes inside ministries going, the implementation of national programs, increasing the application capacity of partnerships between local administrations.structural funds, irredeemable financing, management authorities, regional operation programs, absorption capacity, convergence

Spectral Thresholds in the Bipartite Stochastic Block Model

We consider a bipartite stochastic block model on vertex sets $V_1$ and $V_2$, with planted partitions in each, and ask at what densities efficient algorithms can recover the partition of the smaller vertex set. When $|V_2| \gg |V_1|$, multiple thresholds emerge. We first locate a sharp threshold for detection of the partition, in the sense of the results of \cite{mossel2012stochastic,mossel2013proof} and \cite{massoulie2014community} for the stochastic block model. We then show that at a higher edge density, the singular vectors of the rectangular biadjacency matrix exhibit a localization / delocalization phase transition, giving recovery above the threshold and no recovery below. Nevertheless, we propose a simple spectral algorithm, Diagonal Deletion SVD, which recovers the partition at a nearly optimal edge density. The bipartite stochastic block model studied here was used by \cite{feldman2014algorithm} to give a unified algorithm for recovering planted partitions and assignments in random hypergraphs and random $k$-SAT formulae respectively. Our results give the best known bounds for the clause density at which solutions can be found efficiently in these models as well as showing a barrier to further improvement via this reduction to the bipartite block model.Comment: updated version, will appear in COLT 201

Hyperuniform disordered phononic structures

We demonstrate the existence of large phononic band gaps in designed hyperuniform (isotropic) disordered two-dimensional (2D) phononic structures of Pb cylinders in epoxy matrix. The phononic band gaps in hyperuniform disordered phononic structures are comparable to band gaps of similar periodic structures, for both out-of-plane and in-plane polarizations. A large number of localized modes is identified near the band edges, as well as, diffusive transmission throughout the rest of the frequency spectrum. Very high-Q cavity modes for both out-of-plane and in-plane polarizations are formed by selectively removing a single cylinder out of the structure. Efficient waveguiding with almost 100% transmission trough waveguide structures with arbitrary bends is also presented. We expand our results to thin three-dimensional layers of such structures and demonstrate effective band gaps related to the respective 2D band gaps. Moreover, the drop in the Q factor for the three-dimensional structures is not more than three orders of magnitude compared to the 2D ones

Enterpise resource planning deplozment guide

The deployment of an Enterprise Resource Planning system (briefly ERP) is a global project, of strategic importance for the companies. It is equally a project for the reorganization of the business processes. A guide for the deployment involves all that is necessary for the counseling for the start up of an ERP system: conceptual matters, basic rules, managers' expectations, success factors, associated risks and good practices.enterprise resource planning systems (ERP), ERP deployment, success factors, basic rules, ERP deployment associated risks, best practices

BENCHMARKINGUL-METHOD OF PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Creating a healthy Public Administration, well structured and effective, constitutes a balance and stability factor, the essential elements in strengthening the state of law, in promoting the principles and guidelines to ensure the progress and prosperity in all economic and social sectors. Creating a modern and efficient system for the Public Administration, although it was considered a priority for the governments of Romania, however, numerous cases have braked the real reform application in the administration : the absence of appropriate reform strategy; the continuing financial constraints , the insufficient training and experience of the politicians and of the civil servants in order to meet then needs and demands of the reform; the utilization of the too old regulations on administrative structures, personnel, functions and pays calls, and , at last but not least, the government focus on the economic reform issues disregarding that they can not be solved without reforming the Public Administration. Benchmarking represents a comparative method of analysis which is used in order to evaluate products, services, processes, practices and performance of an organization.benchmarking, calibration, process, Public Administration

Optimal control for diffusions on graphs

Starting from a unit mass on a vertex of a graph, we investigate the minimum number of "\emph{controlled diffusion}" steps needed to transport a constant mass $p$ outside of the ball of radius $n$. In a step of a controlled diffusion process we may select any vertex with positive mass and topple its mass equally to its neighbors. Our initial motivation comes from the maximum overhang question in one dimension, but the more general case arises from optimal mass transport problems. On $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ we show that $\Theta( n^{d+2} )$ steps are necessary and sufficient to transport the mass. We also give sharp bounds on the comb graph and $d$-ary trees. Furthermore, we consider graphs where simple random walk has positive speed and entropy and which satisfy Shannon's theorem, and show that the minimum number of controlled diffusion steps is $\exp{( n \cdot h / \ell ( 1 + o(1) ))}$, where $h$ is the Avez asymptotic entropy and $\ell$ is the speed of random walk. As examples, we give precise results on Galton-Watson trees and the product of trees $\mathbb{T}_d \times \mathbb{T}_k$.Comment: 32 pages, 2 figure

THE ISSUE OF SEMANTIC MODELING OF THE LEARNING ORGANIZATIONAL MEMORY FOR E-LEARNING

The development of open and long-distance learning – within universities but also withingeographically distributed enterprises –has led to the development of researches focusing on modeling onsemantic bases the learning organizational memory of an e-learning type. This paper reviews the literaturein the field, focusing on defining a generic template of semantic modeling of the content of the learningorganizational memory of the e-learning type, by proposing a study case of semantic representation oflearning objects applied to the economic-financial analysis. The research is both theoretic and applied-deductive in character, starting from a general background regarding learning in general and reachingparticularity by providing an ontology specific to the economic-financial analysis.learning organizational memory, learning object, ontology, metadata, indexing, e-learning,modeling standards, economical and financial analysis.
