RURAL DEVELOPMENT EVALUATION MEASURES

The study wants to show methods for evaluating rural development in Romania, in the context of joining the European Union. The methodologies used are analysis and synthesis and they are usefull for private and public sector in helping them find new ways to improve rural life with European funds. The current interest in global and regional development is determined by the need to address and solve within national economic policies some new difficulties, generated in the context of the restructuring and reform processes triggered in the central and eastern regions of the continent. According to the Territorial Development Strategy of Romania 2035, the evaluation activities compare the achievements from certain moments of the implementation of the strategy with the previously proposed targets, including the way of implementing specific policies. Accession to the European Union was the strongest pressure factor for the rapid reform of the Romanian rural economy, given the need to integrate into the European rural economy, the European model being based on a competitive, market-oriented sector, performing public functions, such as: protecting the environment, offering more convenient residential settlements for the rural population, as well as the integration of agriculture with the environment and forestry. The general research hypothesis of the study consists in the assumption that the study of the rural space in Romania, in the context of the implementation of programs with European funds, will lead to a clearer identification of the problems and to finding better solutions for the development of the rural environment

METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS IN THE EVALUATION OF ROMANIAN RURAL DEVELOPMENT

The rural economy is a component part of the concept of local economy, at the present moment the need for sustainable development starts from the creation of the seeds of degrowth for the local economy, as a generator of well-being. The synergy created locally through the European funds introduced in the local, rural economy determines a synergistic effect. The rural economy, as a component of the local economy, develops through the institutional factor and the human factor.

EUROPEAN FUNDS HELP ROMANIAN AGRICULTURE

The EU Structural Funds are managed by the European Commission and are intended to finance structural assistance measures at Community level, with the aim of promoting regions with developmental delays, reconverting areas affected by industrial decline, combating long-term unemployment, employing young people or promoting rural development. The European Union is first and foremost an economic union. The central goal is to improve economic performance, including poverty reduction. Cohesion policy is the basic policy of the Structural Funds and is a key element in achieving the central goal.The EU Structural Funds are managed by the European Commission and are intended to finance structural assistance measures at Community level, with the aim of promoting regions with developmental delays, reconverting areas affected by industrial decline, combating long-term unemployment, employing young people or promoting rural development.

Aminated TiO2 nanotube as a Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting photoanode

The present work reports on the enhancement of TiO2 nanotubes photoelectrochemical water splitting rate by decorating the nanostructure with an amine layer in a hydrothermal process using diethylenetriamine (DETA). The aminate coated TiO2 tubes show a stable improvement of the photoresponse in both UV and visible light spectrum and under hydrothermal conditions, 4-fold increase of the photoelectrochemical water splitting rate is observed. From intensity modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS) measurements significantly faster electron transport times are observed indicating a surface passivating effect of the N-decoration.Comment: In Catalysis Today, Available online 21 July 201

Soundness of Symbolic Equivalence for Modular Exponentiation

In this paper, we study the Dynamic Decisional Diffie-Hellman (3DH) problem, a powerful generalization of the Decisional Diffie-Hellman (DDH) problem. Our main result is that DDH implies 3DH. This result leads to significantly simpler proofs for protocols by relying directly on the more general problem. Our second contribution is a computationally sound symbolic technique for reasoning about protocols that use symmetric encryption and modular exponentiation. We show how to apply our results in the case of the Burmester & Desmedt protocol
