Book Synopsis World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations by : F. A. Buttress
Download or read book World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations written by F. A. Buttress and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of well over 50,000 entries not only updates its predecessor but considerably increases the coverage of Latin America and Eastern Europe. I have been aided in this work by two colleagues at Glasgow University Library, Dr Lloyd Davies and Barbara MacMillan, and in general revision by Kate Richard. Close on 20% of the text has been altered. The equivalences, introduced into the last edition, linking acronyms in different languages for the same organization, have been extended. New to this edition is the cross-referencing between a defunct organization and its successor. Otherwise the policies adopted in previous editions have been retained: strictly local organizations are omitted, but the subject scope includes activities of all kinds; the country of origin of a national organization is given in brackets, unless it is the home country of the title language or can be readily deduced from the title itself. Acronyms of parent bodies of subsidiary organizations are also added in brackets. A select bibliography guides the reader to specialist works providing more detailed information. Particularly at a time of such widespread political change affecting organizational structures in so many countries, it is impossible to ensure complete up-to-date accuracy in a work of this kind. Readers are earnestly invited to inform me of any errors and omissions for attention in a later edition of this work. H. H. Bibliography Acronyms, Initialisms and Abbreviations Dictionary. 13th edn.

Download or read book Montreal written by Dany Fougères and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2018-04-06 with total page 1505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrounded by water and located at the heart of a fertile plain, the Island of Montreal has been a crossroads for Indigenous peoples, European settlers, and today's citizens, and an inland port city for the movement of people and goods into and out of North America. Commemorating the city's 375th anniversary, Montreal: The History of a North American City is the definitive, two-volume account of this fascinating metropolis and its storied hinterland. This comprehensive collection of essays, filled with hundreds of illustrations, photographs, and maps, draws on human geography and environmental history to show that while certain distinctive features remain unchanged – Mount Royal, the Lachine Rapids of the Saint Lawrence River – human intervention and urban evolution mean that over time Montrealers have had drastically different experiences and historical understandings. Significant issues such as religion, government, social conditions, the economy, labour, transportation, culture and entertainment, and scientific and technological innovation are treated thematically in innovative and diverse chapters to illuminate how people's lives changed along with the transformation of Montreal. This history of a city in motion presents an entire picture of the changes that have marked the region as it spread from the old city of Ville-Marie into parishes, autonomous towns, boroughs, and suburbs on and off the island. The first volume encompasses the city up to 1930, vividly depicting the lives of First Nations prior to the arrival of Europeans, colonization by the French, and the beginning of British Rule. The crucial roles of waterways, portaging, paths, and trails as the primary means of travelling and trade are first examined before delving into the construction of canals, railways, and the first major roads. Nineteenth-century industrialization created a period of near-total change in Montreal as it became Canada's leading city and witnessed staggering population growth from less than 20,000 people in 1800 to over one million by 1930. The second volume treats the history of Montreal since 1930, the year that the Jacques Cartier Bridge was opened and allowed for the outward expansion of a region, which before had been confined to the island. From the Great Depression and Montreal's role as a munitions manufacturing centre during the Second World War to major cultural events like Expo 67, the twentieth century saw Montreal grow into one of the continent's largest cities, requiring stringent management of infrastructure, public utilities, and transportation. This volume also extensively studies the kinds of political debate with which the region and country still grapple regarding language, nationalism, federalism, and self-determination.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jusqu’il y a peu l ‘informatique se cantonnait à améliorer le fonctionnement des organisations, supportant à la fois ses activités opérationnelles, de gestion et de décision. Aujourd’hui l’apparition des e-systèmes (e-Business, e-administration, e-learning, ...) nous plonge dans une réalité beaucoup plus complexe. Cette complexité tient à la fois aux alliances technologiques qui supportent ces e-systèmes : technologies mobiles, informatique, multimédia, biométrie, ... Mais elle tient surtout à la variété des utilisateurs visés par ces nouveaux systèmes et à l’intégration entre sphère privée et sphère professionnelle qu’ils augurent. Pour nous aider à comprendre ces e-systèmes, des spécialistes d’envergure internationale, réunis autour du Professeur François Bodart, présentent dans cet ouvrage leurs regards croisés sur l’utilité et l’utilisabilité de ces nouveaux systèmes. Un ouvrage incontournable pour tous ceux qui s’intéressent aux enjeux technologiques, organisationnels et de Société de notre futur informatique.

Book Synopsis RFID, une technologie controversée : ethnographie de la construction sociale du risque (Collection Mondialisation, Hommes et Sociétés) by : DRAETTA Laura
Download or read book RFID, une technologie controversée : ethnographie de la construction sociale du risque (Collection Mondialisation, Hommes et Sociétés) written by DRAETTA Laura and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'identification par radiofréquences, également connue sous l'acronyme RFID, est une technologie de lecture et d'écriture à distance, par fréquences radio. Par sa principale propriété, celle de réaliser une communication sans contact, elle apparaît au début du XXIème siècle comme une technologie émergente dans la gestion des flux d'une économie globale, en particulier dans le domaine de la traçabilité des objets, des animaux, mais aussi celui de l'identification des personnes. Dès les années 2000, cette technologie semble être arrivée à un point crucial de maturité et son avenir économique s'annonce prometteur. Pourtant, le marché de masse tarde à se substituer au marché de niche. La RFID pose un problème public : au lieu de réaliser ses promesses, elle apparaît plutôt comme une menace. L'analyse présentée dans cet ouvrage s'appuie sur les travaux de recherche en sociologie de l'innovation, sociologie de l'environnement et du développement durable et sociologie des controverses que les auteurs conduisent sur le terrain de la RFID depuis plusieurs années.
