    In the last decade, a massive growth of international trade and cross-border commercial and civil transactions occur among individuals and entities of different jurisdictions and legal backgrounds, this international trend results in corresponding conflicts. This fact makes it critical to identify the nature of process involving the dispute resolution mechanisms under the various legal systems especially those rules addressing the instances in which a person is held subject to certain foreign adjudicative authority because of the contact. In general, there is always a need in some circumstances to analyze the frameworks under one system to explore the nature of the standards adopted by the system to determine their efficiency, effectiveness or in some instances suggest reform. The study will undertake the task of identifying the nature of the rules employed in the United Arab Emirates and the United States federal system, to assert personal jurisdiction over the person of the defendant in both national and international levels. It also addresses the main differences and grounds of similarities as well as how far courts in the two studied systems can go in exercising its adjudicative authorities over litigants whom are not subject to the territorial adjudicative power of the system. The study will also explore the nature of one-system foundations of adjudicating actions that have originated outside, and the nature of effect or contact considered as a sufficient base for granting jurisdiction therein. Their structures and implementations are examined in three parts. The first is a survey of the legislative framework of ekhtesas shakhsy (personal jurisdiction) in the federal system of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and the second is the law of personal jurisdiction in the United States. The third part is personal conclusion drawn based on the study of the two models in an attempt to choose the correct mix of rules and procedures, as well as assisting whether international standards are needed and the potential of success of such global procedural standards

    The Association Between Statistical Sciences And Medical Science Based On Previous Studies

    Get PDF
    Majority of the population of today poorly understand the implication of statistics in the field of medicine. People often refer to statistics as merely as science of numbers and that its relationship to other field of sciences is far beyond their knowledge and comprehension. Why statistical views must be incorporated in medical or clinical trials, how statistics applied and evolved with medicine, and how do medical researchers test their hypothetical views in order to come up with a factual, safe, null and void results are the question of some. Albeit the fact that absolute certainty in medicine is rare, statistics is still utilize to interpret data. In fact, physicians, researchers, scientists use different statistical methods to improve medicine. For many years, medicine had evolved and reached its present advancement through research that uses statistical technique for data analysis. This paper aims to discuss the importance of statistics in medicine. Keywords: Statistics, implication of statistics, important statistic in medicine

    Competency Assessment of Public Employee in Kuwaiti Civil Service Law.

    Get PDF
    The system of competency assessment has a special importance in public employment because it is one of the tools that are used to assess the capability of the employees and their ability to satisfy their public duties, as well as their roles to achieve the goals of the administrative department in managing the public facility and attaining the public interest. The system of competency assessment seeks to achieve many objectives, the most important of which are: the advancement of the service that the public facility is providing, the improvement of the programs and methods of appointing employees and their training; the detection of the administration\u27s errors and problems; and the improvement of the competency of employees. This study will include the legal organization of the competency assessment in Kuwaiti civil service law, by identifying the public employees who are subject to this system and those who are making it. In addition, this study will shed the light on the assessment process, factors, and hierarchy. The time of assessment, steps, publicity, and effects will be covered in this study. Finally, the complaint about the competency assessment and the judicial appeal will be subject to discussion in the stud

    Durability of multi layered plasma and HVOF coatings

    The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of variable compositional coating layers on their mechanical and chemical behaviour under certain environments typically experienced in the Oil and Gas Industry. The research centers on using thermal spray coating techniques such as the HVOF and plasma spray equipment. The coating was applied onto selected carbon steel substrates (API-5L, Schedule-40, Grade-B) to simulate the material application used in oil and gas components that subject to corrosion and corrosion-erosion phenomena. The coating was deposited using three layers of coatings with various combinations of sprayed powders to create graded multi-layered coating. WC-12Co powders with two different powder structures (micro-sized powders and nano-sized agglomerated into micro-sized powders – nano-structured) were mixed at different ratios with AMDRY (9954 and 995M) powders to enhance the mechanical behaviour, wear, and corrosion protection (Hardness, corrosion, erosion-corrosion) of the coatings. The surface morphology and the elemental composition of the coatings were examined using SEM and EDS techniques. The results indicated that coating deposited by the HVOF (60% Micro WC-12Co and 40% Micro AMDRY 9954) was the most effective coating system in preventing corrosion. If the erosion is the dominant concern, then replacing the Microsized WC-12Co powder with the Nanosized WC-12Co powder is effective for protecting materials from wear caused by erosion-corrosion. The addition of the AMDRY powder to the original WC-Co powders helped to lower the overall coating porosity, enhanced the corrosion protection, and improved the overall erosion–corrosion performance, which addresses issues currently faced in the Oil/Gas industry. A Design of Experiment (DOE) technique may be used to optimize the powders blending ratios to give better results in future work

    On some generalized ageing orderings

    Full text link
    Some partial orderings which compare probability distributions with the expo- nential distribution, are found to be very useful to understand the phenomenon of ageing. Here, we introduce some new generalized partial orderings which de- scribe the same kind of characterization of some generalized ageing classes. We give some equivalent conditions for each of the orderings. Inter-relations among the generalized orderings have also been discussed

    Talent Management in Healthcare Administration

    The health system is extraordinarily complex and more than other sectors requires building consensus among independent constituents, many of whom have existed for more than centuries. Health is a mission driven industry. The “end-consumer” for health is ultimately people everywhere, although the trend may be toward specialty delivery organizations (hospitals, pharmaceuticals, biotech start–up, insurance company) have at the core of their strategies making people healthy. These organizations recognize that health is about serving people at their most vulnerable and when they are in crisis. Healthcare facilities today face talent challenges. The ability to sustain a steady supply of talents is a challenge facing all organizations worldwide. Among the issues confronting the “next generation” workforce are impending skill shortages, an increasingly generational gap and diverse workforce, the need for knowledge transfer from retiring healthcare providers, and significant leadership gaps. At a time when organizations like the healthcare, aviation industry, and others need to optimize their workforces, most agree that talent management is of strategic importance. Health leaders are especially challenged to create work climates that motivate high-quality, patient-centered care and retain high demand talent in a competitive market. This paper aims to present strategies to maximizing talent management in the healthcare administration or system.
