IT&C Impact on the Romanian Business and Organizations. The Enterprise Resource Planning and Business Intelligence Methods Influence on Manager’s Decision: A Case Study

The aim of the paper is to study the use of the advanced management methods in the 2010 year in Romania. The research results were obtained with the use of a questionnaire, and our purpose was to demonstrate some hypothesis concerning identify the effect that implementation of ERP and BI applications in all functions of an organization has over the management method and the IT&C based decision. The originality of this article consists in the study realized in computer based advanced management methods implementation. The study is limited to the SIVECO companies portfolio. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate some hypothesis concerning the relationship between the size of the organization, the management method used, and the role of IT&C in decision making. The practical value of this study consists in the measurement of the impacts of contingency factors, including size, and in the assessment of the ERP systems success. The results demonstrate that the relationship between firm size and ERP success is moderated by IT assets.Enterprise Resource Planning, Business Intelligence, Management Methods, Balanced Scorecard

Quality Risk Management – An Integrated Approach in the Mining Industry

The continued development of management system standards into areas such as environment, health and safety, and information security has reinforced the calls for an integrated approach. In the mining field, characterized by a high level of specificity, an integrated approach to underground activities should not omit the influence of the risk factors. In this context QRM can be not just a solution, but also a necessity.

ERP AND BI IMPLEMENTATION IN ROMANIAN ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON MANAGER'S DECISION: A CASE STUDY

ERP systems are usually complex, expensive, powerful, proprietary systems which are used widely as integrated multi-module commercial packages suitable for tailoring and adding "add-ons" as and when required. A lot of research has been done over ERP and implementation of ERP. However, most of the research so far has been done over ERP in an effort to implement it successfully in an organization. In this paper I offer the results of a case study undertaken to see the effect of ERP implementation on a few variables of manager's decision. This study has found that the job tenure and job type of an employee influences the attitudes towards ERP system

Increasing the quality of medical services by streamlining the human resources management

The most affected field of the society by the two-year COVID-19 pandemic was undoubtedly the medical one. An analysis of the most important changes that have taken place in this field, from the perspective of human resources in the medical sector, is the main objective of the research. A first step in this complex analysis, however, is to identify the situation of human resources in the medical sector from the perspective of its satisfaction in the pre-pandemic period. The present paper aims to highlight the situation existing in the Romanian medical system prior to the pandemic from the perspective of employee satisfaction, through a research conducted in a medium-sized hospital in Romania. The research method used was the survey, with 144 respondents, represented by the employees of the hospital, questionnaire applied in 2018 and 2019 years. One of the conclusions of this paper is that improving employee satisfaction from the perspective of human resources management in the organization studied, increase the quality of medical services offered to the patients, and therefore increase patient satisfaction

A new academic management vision for the University of Petrosani

We face a period of profound changes in our society, changes that will have effects on education. Today, universities abroad focus on practical things, while in Romania the basis remains the theory. The West European or American higher education institution (HEI) emphasize on dual specializations, internships, business partnerships, and encourage creativity. Abroad, students can get substantial scholarships or have the guarantee of a well-paid job after graduation. In this context, can we give a new face and adapt the higher education system in Romania, in particular in the case of the University of Petrosani, by implementing the hybrid education and developing new applied specializations in collaboration with business partners? We will try to give the answer to this question in this paper

Drug Delivery to Posterior Intraocular Tissues: Third Annual ARVO/Pfizer Ophthalmics Research Institute Conference

The third Annual ARVO/Pfizer Ophthalmic Research Institute Conference was held Friday and Saturday, May 4 and 5, 2007 at the Fort Lauderdale Grande Hotel and Yacht Club, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The conference, funded by the ARVO Foundation for Eye Research through a grant from Pfizer Ophthalmics, provided an opportunity to gather experts from within and outside ophthalmology to develop strategies to address drug delivery to posterior intraocular tissues—a topic of great interest, as the major route of drug delivery is via intravitreous injection

Gluino Decay as a Probe of High Scale Supersymmetry Breaking

A supersymmetric standard model with heavier scalar supersymmetric particles has many attractive features. If the scalar mass scale is O(10 - 10^4) TeV, the standard model like Higgs boson with mass around 125 GeV, which is strongly favored by the LHC experiment, can be realized. However, in this scenario the scalar particles are too heavy to be produced at the LHC. In addition, if the scalar mass is much less than O(10^4) TeV, the lifetime of the gluino is too short to be measured. Therefore, it is hard to probe the scalar particles at a collider. However, a detailed study of the gluino decay reveals that two body decay of the gluino carries important information on the scalar scale. In this paper, we propose a test of this scenario by measuring the decay pattern of the gluino at the LHC.Comment: 29 pages, 9 figures; version published in JHE
