The main intention of component system is to retain interfaces which obtain in the model of proceeding between IS reference architecture components. Component model – it new type model, which helps to identify data systems components and their information connections. The use of component method’s allows to produce each component apart from all system’s, beyond realizing them so, that they have opportunity to operate in the allotment frame, to modernize whatever component and leave inviolate all others. Designer information system is implemented in one of Bank “Snoras” branch office, it’s Alytus subsidiary.Leading activity products are data, which is receivable from ready money dispenser, pay terminal and them service software filing and analyzing. All gathered data is stored in a database. Informacion is systematized and presented for users in semblance of forms or reports.

There are many systems for processing audiovisual data. These systems tend to be composed of components, which can be configured in many different ways, thus creating vast configuration space of the systems. In order to find an optimal configuration across many components, automatic configuration space exploration is required. However there are no such existing tools which would suit our requirements. In this thesis we propose a component model and domain specific language designed to allow for automatic configuration space exploration. Additionally we integrate this language and additional tooling into a browser-based environment. 1

Recent development in the field of distributed and decentralized cyber-physical systems led to emerge of DEECo model. As many DEECo use cases are embedded applications it is interesting to evaluate DEECo on embedded hardware. Currently there is only reference DEECo implementation which is written in Java thus cannot be used for embedded applications. As part of this thesis C++ DEECo mapping and embedded CDEECo++ framework were designed using FreeRTOS operating system for task scheduling and synchronization. An example application designed for the STM32F4 board demonstrates usability of the framework. This thesis contains description of the DEECo mapping into the C++ language, source codes of the CDEECo++ framework, documentation and example application including basic measurement of its real- time properties.

Formed software and hardware projects. In the project prepared and presented programme‘s user‘s and programmer‘s instructions.

Based on her novel notions on the fundamental nature of creativity and the psychosocial need for an adequate assessment, Amabile (1983) proposes consensual assessment technique (CAT) to provide a "product-based" quantitative approach to evaluate creativity. The essence of CAT is that it delineates factors that influence and determine the "product" to be truly "creative", and emphasizes that a product or an observable reaction is the testimony of creativity. Amabile (1983) also implies creativity is not an individual phenomenon, but consists of three major components: task motivation, expertise and creativity skills. The purpose of this study is to examine the validity of Amabile's component model of creativity and to apply his model into the essay writings in primary school students, hence to test the attribution of CAT in providing a valid appraisal in creativity assessment. A "product-based" CAT was performed on 110 essays with 5 different topics written by 22 6th grade school students. A group of Chinese experts, made up of 3 children literature professors and 6 experienced primary school teachers, are in charge of evaluating all these essays. The evaluated results are used to determine if to determine if Amabile's model can be comparable to current psychosocial norms and if it can accurately delineates individual's creativity talent. According to our hypothetical working framework, the following results were expected; (1)motivation has a positive effect on creativity, (2)professional techniques have a positive effect on creativity (3)creative technique has a positive effect on creativity (4)the results of CAT showed a mutual consensus on defining creativity amongst the professional judges.

As a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and microsatellite markers are available, high resolution mapping employing multiple markers or multiple allele markers is an important step to identify quantitative trait locus (QTL) of complex human disease. For many complex diseases, quantitative phenotype values contain more information than dichotomous traits do. Much research has been done on conducting high resolution mapping using information of linkage and linkage disequilibrium. The most commonly employed approaches for mapping QTL are pedigree-based linkage analysis and population-based association analysis. As one of the methods dealing with multiple alleles markers, mixed models are developed to work out family-based association study with the information of transmitted allele and nontransmitted allele from one parent to offspring. For multiple markers, variance component models are proposed to perform association study and linkage analysis simultaneously. Linkage analysis provides suggestive linkage based on a broad chromosome region and is robust to population admixtures. One the other hand, allelic association due to linkage disequilibrium (LD) usually operates over very short genetic distance, but is affected by population stratification. Combining both approaches plays a synergistic role in overcoming their limitations and in increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of gene mapping.

Cette thèse vise à définir et à valider un modèle de programmation intégrant la description d'architectures logicielles et un ordonnancement dynamique de tâches dans un contexte de haute performance. Par exemple, il s'agit de combiner les avantages de modèles tels que L²C et StarPU. L'objectif final est de proposer un modèle capable de supporter des applications telles que Gysela5D sur les architectures parallèles actuelles et futures (tel que des clusters très variés et supercalculateurs comportant des accélérateurs). / This thesis aims to define and validate a programing model that combines the description of software architecture with dynamic task scheduling in a high performance context. For example by integrating the advantages of the L²C and StarPU models. The final goal is to propose a model that enables the description of applications such as Gysela5D on current and future parallel architectures (such as various clusters and supercomputers including accelerators).

Organisational commitment, viewed as a measurable psychological state, is a core variable of interest in Organisational Behaviour research. It has been studied for more than four decades, largely focusing on the identification of its antecedents and consequences. One widely used conceptualisation is Meyer and Allen‘s (1991) three-component model of commitment, which considers commitment as having three forms: affective, continuance and normative (emotional attachment to an organisation, the perceived cost associated with leaving it and the perceived obligation to remain in it). This research contributes in three ways to improving our understanding of public-sector work behaviour, with particular reference to organisational commitment. Firstly, it examines the multi-dimensionality of organisational commitment. Secondly, it explores the relationships between Meyer and Allen‘s three components, modifying the concept of continuance commitment to include two sub-components, high personal sacrifice and low perceived alternatives, thus proposing a four-factor model, Antecedents and Consequences of Organisational Commitment Components (ACOCC). Thirdly, it considers antecedent variables, including Hofstede‘s (1980) four cultural dimensions (individualism/collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, power distance and masculinity/femininity), as well as selected consequences: in role behaviour, organisational citizen behaviour and employee intention to leave. These selected variables are deemed to be suitable for Saudi Arabian culture and have never been tested before in that context. The study investigates how the commitment components are associated with and mediate relationships with the set of possible work behaviours. Using a sample of 700 employees from different organisation levels (drawn from 16 Saudi ministries in two cities, Riyadh and Jeddah) the hypotheses were tested through structural equation modelling, which confirmed the fit of the proposed recursive ACOCC model. The regression paths were significant between the antecedents (opportunities for learning, impersonal bureaucratic arrangements and Hofstede‘s four cultural dimensions) and affective and normative commitment, as well as for continuance commitment for reasons of high personal sacrifice. Intention to leave and organisational citizen behaviour were fully mediated by the commitment components. Thus the findings reveal the level and form of organisational commitment among public-sector employees and of relationships between the antecedents and consequences of that commitment in a non-Western culture, specifically Saudi Arabia. In particular, they highlight the significant mediation role of organisational commitment. The findings also permit exploration of a number of issues pertaining to cultural dimensions impacting on organisational commitment. Noteworthy here, for example, is the high degree of uncertainty avoidance found among Saudi public-sector top-level managers. These different results have important implications for the nature and management of commitment among government employees in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries as a whole.

<p>Embedded systems are microprocessor-based systems that cover a large range of computer systems from ultra small computer-based devices to large systems monitoring and controlling complex processes. The particular constraints that must be met by embedded systems, such as timeliness, resource-use efficiency, short time-to-market and low cost, coupled with the increasing complexity of embedded system software, demand technologies and processes that will tackle these issues. An attractive approach to manage the software complexity, increase productivity, reduce time to market and decrease development costs, lies in the adoption of the component based software engineering (CBSE) paradigm. The specific characteristics of embedded systems lead to important design issues that need to be addressed by a component model. Consequently, a component model for development of embedded systems needs to systematically address extra-functional system properties. The component model should support predictable system development and as such guarantee absence or presence of certain properties. Formal methods can be a suitable solution to guarantee the correctness and reliability of software systems.</p><p> </p><p>Following the CBSE spirit, in this thesis we introduce the ProCom component model for development of distributed embedded systems. ProCom is structured in two layers, in order to support both a high-level view of loosely coupled subsystems encapsulating complex functionality, and a low-level view of control loops with restricted functionality. These layers differ from each other in terms of execution model, communication style, synchronization etc., but also in kind of analysis which are suitable. To describe the internal behavior of a component, in a structured way, in this thesis we propose REsource Model for Embedded Systems (REMES) that describes both functional and extra-functional behavior of interacting embedded components. We also formalize the resource-wise properties of interest and show how to analyze such behavioral models against them.</p> / PROGRESS
