Impact of IT on management and humans in modern conditions
The introduction of IT changes the organizational structure and all the elements of management processes, particularly the way we manage organizations. The problem is the fact that information technology is not adequately implemented in all the parts of the business
process. Specifically, it is applied to the operatively executive, administrative, accounting jobs, archiving, retrieval and selection of data for planning and analysis, and its implementation is lagging behind in
leadership and management.
This paper aims to highlight the impact of IT on the management process, i.e. on people as the most valuable potential of each organization
The future of hierarchical structure in organizations
In the second half of the twentieth century organizational systems did change the way of management. Through the introduction of informatics and emphasis on the importance of human resources, management process has obtained a new design, very different from the classic one that dominated the first half of the twentieth century. This especially applies to reduced hierarchical structure in corporate systems and elimination of the so-called ‘deep range’ of organization and management, as well as new concepts of management and direction of joint work. The aim of this paper is to highlight the changes that are expected in the design of organizations in the coming period in terms of hierarchy, in order for companies to get ready and be prepared for the upcoming changes in the organizational systems
Reduction of longitudinal ultrasonic oscillations in NaClO[3] crystals
The authors study reduction of longitudinal ultrasonic oscillations (internal friction Q{-1} and logarithmic decrement [delta]) in NaClO[3] crystals within the temperature range of 78-525 К and relative amplitudes of oscillatory deformation of 10{-7} -10{-5} according to the method of compound piezoelectric vibrator at the frequencies of =10[5] Hz. Q{-1} maximums under the temperatures of 110 К, 240 К, 260 К, =400 К and its fast growth under the temperature over 500 К are revealed as well as athermic peak of ? in the region of small deformation amplitudes(near 10{-7})
Project based learning in teaching communication skills in English as a foreign language to engineering students
The aim of this paper is to consider project based learning as one of the most efficient and productive methods used in teaching English as a foreign language to engineering students of Russian technical universities. Special emphasis is put on communication skills to be mastered by future engineers through project based learning. It is of great importance to note that highly developed oral and written communication skills are valuable for engineering students wishing to become successful and competitive in the international arena. Hence, engineering students must be trained well to develop their communication skills in English in the field of professional activity, mainly in the science research area. An inter-disciplinary project designed on the basis of project based learning for the second year students of Tomsk Polytechnic University is reviewed in this work. The authors come to the conclusion that project based learning is an ideal teaching method since it allows engineering students to improve significantly their oral and written communication skills as well as apply the content knowledge in the field of their professional activity within the English language course
Electron heating and acceleration for the nonlinear kinetic equation
Time evolution of the isotropic electron distribution function while heating for the nonlinear kinetic equation with the Landau-Fokker-Planck collisional integral is studied. The considered heating sources are mono kinetic distribution, hot ions, and a quasi-linear diffusion operator. The investigation is mainly concentrated on the formation of the distribution function and tail acceleration. The time-dependent solutions allowing the solutions in self-similar variables are examined. Also presented are analytical asymptotic solutions and comparison them with numerical results
Discourse as the basis of pragmatic analysis
The article deals with the problems of discourse definition and its types. The authors analyse different views which concern the including of the term “dialogue” into “discourse” along with “monologue”. Special attention is paid to the description of a literary dialogue having its own features and special interest for pragmatic analysis as almost all utterances are performativeyesBelgorod State Universit
Optical morphology of distant RATAN-600 radio galaxies from subarcsecond resolution NOT images
We present direct imaging data of 22 ultra steep spectrum radio sources
obtained at (or near) a subarcsecond seeing. The basic sample of 40 double
radio sources was selected from the RATAN-600 catalogue. The FRII-structure has
been confirmed with VLA and preliminary optical identifications which come from
the 6 m-telescope. As the RATAN-600 flux limit at 3.9 GHz ( 10mJy) is
fainter than that of major surveys, the sample may have high- contents. This
is also suggested by the faint magnitudes in the Hubble diagram. The final aim
is to create a homogeneous sample of high- radio galaxies in a well defined
strip around the sky, with faint radio limit and subarcsecond morphology down
to .
We could confirm 16 identifications down to 24. Most of the
extended objects have multicomponent structures as expected from other surveys
of high-redshift radio galaxies. We found five unresolved objects even with a
subarcsecond seeing. Of the remaining six objects, three are extremely faint
and the other three have such a complex environment that further observations
are needed to confirm the optical identification.Comment: A&AS in pres
New contribution to the research of the theory of whole
Although a whole as a phenomenon was entertained by ancient Chinese wiesemen, it seems that this issue remains in the focus of the modern world too, and especially of social, and organizational sciences. However, any, even the science of organization and management has its theoretical basis. Without a theory that has been confirmed in practice, no science can get the title of science. Therefore, any contribution to the study of the theory of a whole has practical value, and if not, it is an utopia, something that is impossible and unattainable in the real world. The beliefs that in perspective the theory of a whole shall gain even greater importance are quite realistic, which is logical, because life, work and business keep getting more and more complex, with increased interdependence between relationships, and with increases of both speed and dynamics of life and work. The aim of this paper is to draw attention to new thoughts and ideas about the theory of a whole, and all for the purpose of its application in the design and management of organizational and other systems
