Review Jurnal Ilmiah : Capacity and Bureaucratic Culture in Accessbilitiy of Public Information Based on E-Govermant in Sidoarjo-Indonesia

Dalam pemikiran (Max Weber), setiap aktivitas yang menuntut koordinasi yang ketat terhadap kegiatan-kegiatan dari sejumlah besar orang dan melibatkan keahlian-keahlian khusus, maka satu-satunya peluang yaitu dengan mengangkat atau menggunakan organisasi birokratik. Alasan penting untuk mengembangkan organisai birokratik yaitu senantiasa didasarkan hanya pada keunggulan teknis dibandingkan dengan bentuk organisasi lainnya. Adapun orientasi yang dilakukan dalam suatu organisasi dalam membentuk suatu struktur, fungsi, personalia organisasi birokrasi mampu diikuti oleh perubahan kultur organisasi birokrasi dan perilaku manusia-manusia yang terlibat di dalamnya. Apabila perubahan ini dapat terwujud, maka apa yang diharapkan dalam orientasi efektivitas pelayanan publik, akan tercapai. Keterkaitan sebuah organisasi dalam birokrasi memberikan suatu informasi pada publik tentang bagaimana kebutuhan suatu organisasi dapat dibutuhkan sehingga, dapat memperdaya tinggi pencarian informasi

Infinite first order differential systems with nonlocal initial conditions

We discuss the solvability of an infinite system of first order ordinary differential equations on the half line, subject to nonlocal initial conditions. The main result states that if the nonlinearities possess a suitable "sub-linear" growth then the system has at least one solution. The approach relies on the application, in a suitable Fr\'echet space, of the classical Schauder-Tychonoff fixed point theorem. We show that, as a special case, our approach covers the case of a system of a finite number of differential equations. An illustrative example of application is also provided.Comment: 12 page
