Key Lessons Learnt from Stakeholder Management in Design and Build Projects in Qatar
Stakeholders in the construction industry require accurate, reliable and timely
information in order to streamline the design and construction of Projects. Design Bid
Build or Design and Build contracts need a process for seeking the latest requirements,
interests and existing assets of all the stakeholders involved. This to lead and guide the
projects to deliver in a timely, cost-effective and safe manner. This paper summarizes
the multi-discipline Stakeholder management challenges and their proactive approach
during the execution of the Expressway Programme by Public Works Authority, Qatar
illustrated by a case study and actual actions from the industry. Various internal surveys
have been undertaken to assess the issues to be resolved. Key to managing the time
and cost impacts on the construction projects are identifying the needs of stakeholders,
stakeholder communication procedures, their requirements, identification of existing
assets, expected future requirements and decisions among the stakeholder. Unique and
innovation construction procedures are highlighted in order to overcome construction

Implementasi Multi User Operating System (OS) Dengan CCBOOT
The development of hardware and software technology has caused cybercafe and computer labs to raise the level of the operating system installed on their hardware. The Windows 7 operating system that is usually paired with PC devices is not compatible because there is no software update available for the Windows 7 version. At present, the operating system used is WINDOWS 10, but businesses have difficulty implementing or installing WINDOWS 10 on the device. they. One application that is used to facilitate the use of WINDOWS 10 is CCBoot. This research was conducted by directly applying the use of WINDOWS 10 on a Personal Computer (PC) device with an additional CCboot application. From the results of this study will be concluded whether the implementation of a diskless system with CCBoot can optimize the use of hardware

Cross-species amplification of 41 microsatellites in European cyprinids: A tool for evolutionary, population genetics and hybridization studies
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Cyprinids display the most abundant and widespread species among the European freshwater Teleostei and are known to hybridize quite commonly. Nevertheless, a limited number of markers for conducting comparative differentiation, evolutionary and hybridization dynamics studies are available to date.</p> <p>Findings</p> <p>Five multiplex PCR sets were optimized in order to assay 41 cyprinid-specific polymorphic microsatellite loci (including 10 novel loci isolated from <it>Chondrostoma nasus nasus, Chondrostoma toxostoma toxostoma </it>and <it>Leuciscus leuciscus</it>) for 503 individuals (440 purebred specimens and 63 hybrids) from 15 European cyprinid species. The level of genetic diversity was assessed in <it>Alburnus alburnus, Alburnoides bipunctatus, C. genei, C. n. nasus, C. soetta, C. t. toxostoma, L. idus, L. leuciscus, Pachychilon pictum, Rutilus rutilus, Squalius cephalus </it>and <it>Telestes souffia</it>. The applicability of the markers was also tested on <it>Abramis brama, Blicca bjoerkna </it>and <it>Scardinius erythrophtalmus </it>specimens. Overall, between 24 and 37 of these markers revealed polymorphic for the investigated species and 23 markers amplified for all the 15 European cyprinid species.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The developed set of markers demonstrated its performance in discriminating European cyprinid species. Furthermore, it allowed detecting and characterizing hybrid individuals. These microsatellites will therefore be useful to perform comparative evolutionary and population genetics studies dealing with European cyprinids, what is of particular interest in conservation issues and constitutes a tool of choice to conduct hybridization studies.</p

A method framework of integrating information security into the enterprise architecture
Tietoturvan sisällyttämiseksi osaksi kokonaisarkkitehtuuria on kehitetty useita menetelmiä ja malleja. Tarjolla olevat mallit on kuitenkin usein koettu raskaiksi ja työläiksi käyttää, eivätkä ne kata kaikkia kokonaisarkkitehtuurin osa-alueita. Jotta tietoturva olisi mahdollista integroida kokonaisarkkitehtuuriin sen kaikille osa-alueille, yhtenä mahdollisena lähestymistapana on esitetty tietoturvan integroimista kokonaisarkkitehtuuriperiaatteista käsin. Tässä tutkielmassa raportoidaan suunnittelutieteellisellä menetelmällä kehitetty menetelmäkehys, jonka avulla voidaan luoda kokonaisarkkitehtuurin tietoturvaperiaatteita. Tutkimusaineistona on käytetty valmiita asiantuntijahaastatteluja, joissa 26 haastateltavaa vastasi Suomen julkisen hallinnon kokonaisarkkitehtuurin tilaa koskeviin kysymyksiin. Näistä poimittiin tarkasteltavaksi tietoturvaa koskevat osiot, joita käytettiin yhdessä kirjallisuuslähteiden kanssa määrittelemään lähtökohtia menetelmäkehyksen suunnittelulle. Menetelmäkehyksen luomisessa on hyödynnetty sekä tietoturvaperiaatteiden että kokonaisarkkitehtuuriperiaatteiden luomisen metamalleja ja se on mallinnettu ArchiMate-notaatiolla. Menetelmäkehyksen arvioimiseksi toteutettiin yhdeksän asiantuntijahaastattelua, joiden perusteella kehys muokattiin lopulliseen muotoon. Menetelmäkehyksen avulla tietoturva voidaan integroida osaksi kokonaisarkkitehtuurityötä jo työn varhaisessa vaiheessa, jolloin vältetään hankalaksi ja työlääksi koettu tietoturvavaatimusten ja kokonaisarkkitehtuurityön yhdistäminen.Several methods and models have been developed to integrate information security into the enterprise architecture. However, the models available are often difficult and laborious to use and do not cover all aspects of the enterprise architecture. In order to integrate information security into the enterprise architecture for all its components, one possible approach is to integrate information security from the enterprise architecture principles. This thesis reports a method framework developed by a design science method that can be used to create information security principles for the enterprise architecture. The research material used in this thesis is consists in part of ready-made expert interviews, where 26 interviewees answered questions about the state of the enterprise architecture of Finnish public administration. These included sections on information security that were used in conjunction with literary sources to determine the basis for designing a method framework. The method framework has been built using meta models from both information security principles and the creation of enterprise architectural principles and is modelled with ArchiMate notation. In order to evaluate the method framework, nine expert interviews were conducted on the basis of which the method framework was finalized. With the method framework, information security can be integrated into the enterprise architecture work in an early state, avoiding the difficult and laborious combination of information security requirements and enterprise architecture work
Kokonaisarkkitehtuurin laadun ja kypsyystason yhteys
Tässä opinnäytetyössä tarkastellaan, onko kokonaisarkkitehtuurin kypsyystasolla ja kokonaisarkkitehtuurituotteen laadulla keskinäistä yhteyttä. Tämän selvittämiseksi valittiin kirjallisuuslähteistä ne artikkelit, joissa kokonaisarkkitehtuurin laatua tutkitaan laatuattribuuttien (quality attributes) kautta. Näiden artikkeleiden perusteella muodostettiin kahdeksan laatuattribuuttia. Näiden laatuattribuuttien kuvauksia verrattiin kolmen kypsyysmallin (JHKA:n kypsyystasomalli, EAMM, DyAMM) kypsyystasokuvauksiin. Näin haluttiin selvittää, kuuluvatko laatuattribuutit tietyille kypsyystasoille. Tämän tarkastelun perusteella näyttää siltä, että kokonaisarkkitehtuurituotteen laadulla ja kypsyystasolla on keskinäinen yhteys. Suurin osa laatuattribuuteista on mahdollista sijoittaa kuvausten perusteella tietyille kypsyystasoille. Tämän aineiston perusteella ei pystytty kuitenkaan selvittämään, onko kokonaisarkkitehtuurin kypsyydellä ja laadulla toistensa kanssa vaikutussuhdetta.This thesis examines if there is a relationship between the enterprise architecture maturity and the quality of the enterprise architecture product. To find this out, literature articles were selected from articles in which the quality of the enterprise architecture is studied through quality attributes. Based on these articles, eight quality attributes were created. The descriptions of these quality attributes were compared to the maturity descriptions of the three selected maturity models (JHKA´s Maturity Model, EAMM, DyAMM). This was to find out whether the quality attributes belong to certain maturity levels. Based on this review, it seems that there is a mutual link between the enterprise architecture product quality and the maturity level. It is possible to place most of the quality attributes to certain maturity levels based on their descriptions. However, based on this material, it was not possible to find out if the maturity of enterprise architecture and the quality of enterprise architecture influences each other
