ROMANIAN HIGHER EDUCATION REFORM AND ADAPTATION BETWEEN THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY

In today's society, characterized by a continuous process of globalization andknowledge-based economy, intellectual property is the central resource that creates the realvalue in all sectors of economic life. In this context, higher education's mission is to providethe highest quality standard representing a main actor in providing highly skilled workforceand creating knowledge. Thus, we say that to meet the new challenges that universities is needto go through the stages of a process of reform and adaptation, in line with the LisbonStrategy.Consequently, our approach is to put in the foreground the need to create a new system ofhigher education to meet the new demands of society.higher education quality reform, knowledge management education.

THE INFLUENCE OF LENDING ACTIVITY OVER CONSUMER'S BEHAVIOR

Lending activity involves an embedding of general principles which require the analysis of risks incorporated in banking operations, both from a consumer and bank perspective. Correlated with economic environment shifts, the consumer’s definition concentrates a series of individual and group necessities with a decisive role in a possible lending decision. As socio-economic issue, the consumer is oriented at lending when his income in order to buy goods or services is not satisfactory.This paper aims at presenting the consumer hypostasis resulted from lending activities, identifying its purposes and risks

Hybrid Honey Bees Mating Optimization Algorithm for Identifying the Near-Optimal Solution in Web Service Composition

This paper addresses the problem of optimality in semantic Web service composition by proposing a hybrid nature-inspired method for selecting the optimal or near-optimal solution in semantic Web Service Composition. The method hybridizes the Honey-Bees Mating Optimization algorithm with components inspired from genetic algorithms, reinforcement learning, and tabu search. To prove the necessity of hybridization, we have analyzed comparatively the experimental results provided by our hybrid selection algorithm versus the ones obtained with the classical Honey Bees Mating Optimization algorithm and with the genetic-inspired algorithm of Canfora et al

Identification of Lynch syndrome risk variants in the Romanian population.

To access publisher's full text version of this article, please click on the hyperlink in Additional Links field or click on the hyperlink at the top of the page marked DownloadTwo familial forms of colorectal cancer (CRC), Lynch syndrome (LS) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), are caused by rare mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2) and the genes APC and MUTYH, respectively. No information is available on the presence of high-risk CRC mutations in the Romanian population. We performed whole-genome sequencing of 61 Romanian CRC cases with a family history of cancer and/or early onset of disease, focusing the analysis on candidate variants in the LS and FAP genes. The frequencies of all candidate variants were assessed in a cohort of 688 CRC cases and 4567 controls. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 was performed on tumour tissue. We identified 11 candidate variants in 11 cases; six variants in MLH1, one in MSH6, one in PMS2, and three in APC. Combining information on the predicted impact of the variants on the proteins, IHC results and previous reports, we found three novel pathogenic variants (MLH1:p.Lys84ThrfsTer4, MLH1:p.Ala586CysfsTer7, PMS2:p.Arg211ThrfsTer38), and two novel variants that are unlikely to be pathogenic. Also, we confirmed three previously published pathogenic LS variants and suggest to reclassify a previously reported variant of uncertain significance to pathogenic (MLH1:c.1559-1G>C).European Union EE

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY’S FINANCIAL STRUCTURE

The purpose of the paper is to highlight the fact that the company’s financial structure is, empirically speaking, the parent entity from which starts all the activities that generate the self existence of the company. The company’s financial structure also known as the company’s capital structure conducts directly the organizational and inter-organizational behavior and indirectly the classification on the market of the referred economic agents. This paper aims to describe the factors that influence the company’s financial activity, it’s direct and related sources of funding used to maintain or increase a satisfying turnover and the theories that conduct the company’s capital structure

Using the Professional Judgment within the Financial Auditor's Profession

The audit mission comes to the aid of the big companies in solving the issues that occur in the financial statements. This paper aims to describe and synthesize the situations in which the auditor uses its professional judgment as a main instrument in the audit activity performed within a company. The professional judgment is a polyvalent concept that has implication on both the organizational level and the social, psychological, educational etc. The formation of such a judgment, even though it seems a flexible one, it needs accuracy and a perfect practice as a starting point

Implications of Integrating SAF-T into an ERP System

The integration of SAF-T (Standard Audit File for Tax) into an ERP system helps companies improve their tax operations by simplifying tax reporting, increasing operational efficiency, legal compliance and data quality. In addition, SAF-T integration can help companies optimize their processes and correct their workflow, leading to greater efficiency and better data visibility. It is important for all companies to ensure that the accounting system they use is compatible with the SAF-T format and that the implementation is done correctly. Therefore, the long-term benefits may outweigh the costs and risks involved, as evidenced by the data collected using the questionnaire. The purpose of this research is to provide a good understanding of the implications associated with the integration of SAF-T into an ERP system, so that companies can make informed decisions about the implementation of this solution. The questionnaire conducted on a number of significant respondents led to the achievement of the set objective. Concurrently, the advantages and disadvantages observed for all involved parties were pursued: companies, suppliers, and tax administrations, thus outlining a clear picture of the requirements to which taxpayers must respond from the beginning of year 2022

Spectroscopic investigation of gamma irradiated PAA-graphite membranes

359-366Electrical conductivity and structural properties of PAA-graphite membranes after gamma irradiation at D=1.7 KGy, have been studied. The electrical conductivity of pure PAA membranes is very low, but the introduction of small quantity of graphite increases this property significantly due to the connections established between the graphite trapped in the polymeric holes. The electrical conductivity of the doped membranes increases after irradiation. This behaviour is correlated with the modification of the local ordered structure of the polymeric matrix and the apparition of supplementary unpaired electrons from the graphite. These microscopic modifications have been investigated by XRD and ESR methods
