    In this article I try to express components of the market economy which may affect an organization of the companies into a period whith decline and resignation reign in human activities. The economic crisis that is the a current world is the climax of financial turmoil which make integral part a normal legislative and the economic calculation which configures a demand and supply of goods.organizational arrangements; company; contracts; legislation; demand; supply; Microeconomics; economic calculation

    A platform for the development of patient applications in the domain of personalized health

    Personalized health (p-health) systems can contribute significantly to the sustainability of healthcare systems, though their feasibility is yet to be proven. One of the problems related to their development is the lack of well-established development tools for this domain. As the p-health paradigm is focused on patient self-management, big challenges arise around the design and implementation of patient systems. This paper presents a reference platform created for the development of these applications, and shows the advantages of its adoption in a complex project dealing with cardio-vascular diseases

    Abstract: The problem of the study is the spread of the phenomenon of intolerance in ideas and beliefs, which threatens the intellectual security of societies and the disputes and non- unity. The study aimed to highlight the role of intellectual security in promoting moderation in light of the revolution of information technology. And identify the most important social and economic variables help to spread the phenomenon of intolerance. The importance of the study stems from the pioneering role of intellectual security in combating intellectual invasion and the profanity of terrorist groups. The study examined (3) main hypotheses: There is a relationship between the diversity of knowledge sourcesAbstract: The problem of the study is the spread of the phenomenon of intolerance in ideas and beliefs, which threatens the intellectual security of societies and the disputes and non- unity. The study aimed to highlight the role of intellectual security in promoting moderation in light of the revolution of information technology. And identify the most important social and economic variables help to spread the phenomenon of intolerance. The importance of the study stems from the pioneering role of intellectual security in combating intellectual invasion and the profanity of terrorist groups. The study examined (3) main hypotheses: There is a relationship between the diversity of knowledge sources and the spread of the phenomenon of intolerance, which threatens the intellectual security of Saudi society. There is a relationship between the social and economic conditions and the spread of the phenomenon of intolerance, which threatens the intellectual security of individuals. There is a relationship between the spread of the phenomenon of intolerance and religious extremism and destabilized the unity and solidarity of the Islamic nation. To achieve the objectives of the study and test hypotheses, the researcher adopted descriptive, analytical and inductive methods through previous studies to identify the problem and the objectives

    A Domain Specific Graphical User Interface Framework

    Get PDF
    Since the early days of software development, there has been an ongoing trend towards higher-order or higher level abstractions in programming languages, software libraries and application frameworks. Some of the arguments for software development tools with higher levels of abstraction include simpler software development, improved portability and better maintainability. Higher level abstractions can however lead to reduced performance. This thesis presents an innovative graphical user interface software solution that mixes high-level and low-level approaches to achieve acceptable performance while retaining good maintainability. The solution is an extension to a graphical application framework called JavaFX. The scope of this thesis is defined by a software development project which goal is to create a graphical user interface framework. The framework is used in the creation of customer specific user interfaces for an accompanying intralogistics system. The resulting user interfaces must be able to visualize possibly thousands of objects moving on a factory floor. The views must simultaneously support user-initiated zooming, panning, and tilting of the two-dimensional view. Meeting these requirements while maintaining acceptable performance, requires an unconventional solution and a deviation from idiomatic JavaFX. The user interface framework in question is developed using a high-level graphical user interface application framework called JavaFX. JavaFX is the most recent graphical user interface toolkit included in the official Java Development Kit. It has many reactive traits and other modern high-level properties. Overcoming performance challenges with JavaFX when producing views with thousands of animated items was the key research challenge in this research. Some attention is also given to replacing JavaFX built-in dependency injection system with Spring framework to improve JavaFX suitability to the task at hand. This thesis presents a hybrid solution that overcomes JavaFX’s performance challenges in the problem domain, while retaining as much as possible of the usefulness of the high-level features present in the JavaFX framework. The key innovation is a mechanism that enables automated rendering of sprite-bitmaps from JavaFX scene-graph nodes. The solution includes a system that draws the automatically generated bitmaps to a lower-level JavaFX component called Canvas. The solution enables layered mixing of regular JavaFX views with the custom high-performance views, including seamless resizing and event handling between the two types of views. The solution enables the developers of customer specific user interfaces to choose an appropriate graphics rendering type, such that only objects that cause performance issues, typically items which number exceeds dozens, need to use the more complex high-performance system

    A model driven architecture approach to web development

    The rise of the number and complexity of web applications is ever increasing. Web engineers need advanced development methods to build better systems and to maintain them in an easy way. Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is an important trend in the software engineering field based on both models and its transformations to automatically generate code. This paper describes a a methodology for web application development, providing a process based on MDA which provides an effective engineering approach to reduce effort. It consists of defining models from metamodels at platform- independent and platform-specific levels, from which source code is automatically generated
