MODERN MANAGEMENT METHODS FOR EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE

The concept of maintenance in the field of complex equipment wasdeveloped in the USA being quickly adopted by European countries and Japan. TheAmerican maintenance concept has the significance of creating a support system forindustrial equipment functioning. Functional maintenance is one of the most frequentused methods in maintenance management for industrial enterprises. This paper tries topresent some aspects related to the systemic approach of the functional maintenancemodel, starting from technical elements of the maintenance process but also taking intoaccount the economical perspective i.e. maintenance-related expenditure.The final partof the paper presents a systemic method of representation of the model, taking intoaccount the two mentioned aspects.functional maintenance, system, management

Considerations concerning cosumer behaviour theory

The consumer`s scale of preference, which is the starting point of the theory of consumer behaviour can be ilustrated very clearly by indifference curves. The point where budget line meets the highest possible indifference curve compatible with the consumer`s income and prices represents the state of equilibrum for the consumer. Consumer behaviuor theory gains still more practical importance if consumer preferences are subjected to detailed psychological and sociological analysis.indifference curve, marginal utility, budget line, consumer`s equilibrum, individual demand curve, Engel curve, market demand curve, psychological and social factors of consumer behaviuor

MODERN APPROACHES IN THE INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT - THE CONDITIONAL TYPE MAINTENANCE

Modern solutions from the industrial type management consist in using informational systems, sustained by means of measure and control of the main equipments from the technological flow. The paper presents several solutions in applying management in the conditional type maintenance activity. Conditions for a optimal work flow specific to this type of maintenance assume covering several analysis phases and the systematic examination of the range of means of measure and control. Application of Informatics in the conditional type maintenance also implies using methods for deploying systems of technological equipments work pursuit, taking into consideration the complexity of the means used and the deployment and using costs

Developing organizational structures for international marketing

International marketing represents marketing activities performed across national boundaries. The level of involvement in international marketing can range from casual exporting to globalization of markets. Although most firms adjust their marketing mixes for differences in target markets, some firms are able to standardize their marketing efforts worldwidemarketing, boundaries, trading company, strategic alliances

CONSIDERATIONS ON USING KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT PRINCIPLES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF E-LEARNING PLATFORMS

Developed in the business sector, where it proved to increase employee motivation, enhance customer support services and overall business efficiency, Knowledge Management found its way to higher education institutions. This paper tries to argument the benefits of using KM principles when designing an e-learning platform as well as point out a few practical implementations.knowledge management, e-learning, higher education

A STUDY REGARDING THE USE OF THE FUNCTIONAL MAINTENANCE MODEL USING A SYSTEMIC APPROACH

The management strategy of industrial enterprises should consider implementing a certain type of maintenance that would ensure not only the rapid completion of maintenance tasks but also the prevention of losses caused by potential shutdown of equipment involved in the main operations. The concept of functional maintenance is based on the elements that ensure a correlation between the technical and the economical aspects of equipment maintenance. In this context, the main objective of the maintenance department consists in ensuring the correct functioning of technological equipment

The Organizational Framework of Modern Companies – Present and Forthcoming Tendencies

The need to reorganize the classic structure of contemporary companies is generated by the occurrence and manifestation of cross-correlated trends and phenomena such as: markets globalization; accelerate internalization of economies; profound technical and technological changes, the informational “explosion”, the diversification of demand together with the “personalization” of commodities and so on. Thus, the emergence of innovative approaches regarding strategies and organization is very appropriate knowing that contemporary business organizations will have to achieve multiple goals (i.e. economic, social, moral, technological and ecologic objectives) and that technologies hard to imagine nowadays can become familiar in the future. The strategies of the third millennium in correlation with the immediate structural development call into requisition the original concept of development as a series of waves of change, revealed by Alvin Toffler in his wellknown book “The Third Wave”. Starting from this metaphor, the paper makes a survey of some relevant theoretical approaches regarding the unprecedented transformations that will occur within organizational structures of future companies in the near future.modern companies,organizational framework,tendencies

The Impact of Knowledge Management Systems Upon the University of Petrosani

Applying corporate Knowledge Management principles in universities has already proven to be one of the best ways to increase the administrative efficiency of the institutions as well as support researchers and faculty. However, implementing such a system has its barriers, mostly due to the poor understanding of the concept (and its long-term benefits) and due to the unstructured, closed sharing policies. The paper tries to provide some insight into how universities position themselves in relationship with knowledge management and knowledge sharing concepts.knowledge management system, Efficiency,barriers,charing policies

A Synopsis of Signaling Crosstalk of Pericytes and Endothelial Cells in Salivary Gland

The salivary gland (SG) microvasculature constitutes a dynamic cellular organization instrumental to preserving tissue stability and homeostasis. The interplay between pericytes (PCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) culminates as a key ingredient that coordinates the development, maturation, and integrity of vessel building blocks. PCs, as a variety of mesenchymal stem cells, enthrall in the field of regenerative medicine, supporting the notion of regeneration and repair. PC-EC interconnections are pivotal in the kinetic and intricate process of angiogenesis during both embryological and post-natal development. The disruption of this complex interlinkage corresponds to SG pathogenesis, including inflammation, autoimmune disorders (Sjögren’s syndrome), and tumorigenesis. Here, we provided a global portrayal of major signaling pathways between PCs and ECs that cooperate to enhance vascular steadiness through the synergistic interchange. Additionally, we delineated how the crosstalk among molecular networks affiliate to contribute to a malignant context. Additionally, within SG microarchitecture, telocytes and myoepithelial cells assemble a labyrinthine companionship, which together with PCs appear to synchronize the regenerative potential of parenchymal constituents. By underscoring the intricacy of signaling cascades within cellular latticework, this review sketched a perceptive basis for target-selective drugs to safeguard SG function
