The lessons from UK privatization experience for privatization in Pakistan : from public sector enterprises to monopolistic utilities (the case of Pak Telecom)

Sajid, Mushtaq A. January 1995 (has links)
The thesis examines privatization programmes worldwide, but with the particular reference to the UK, to establish different approaches to and modes of privatization to assess their relevance to socio-economic development in Pakistan. Within this focus, emphasis is given to the utilities privatization and a case study of telecommunications privatization is provided. The thesis draws establish general conclusions on preconditions and impacts from western privatization experiences, especially from the UK utilities programmes. It then identifies strategic options for the reform programmes for Pakistan utilities, particularly for Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation (Pak Telecom), by comparing the past experiences and present situations of both countries. From this examination, it is concluded that arguments for and against privatization generally and telecommunications particular have been over general and over prescriptive and it is argued that: a strategic contingency approach to privatization that takes account of economic, political, social and cultural variation, is necessary. Further more it is shown that Western models of privatization are unlikely to be feasible in the context of Pakistan Telecom and a tailored multiple modes approach (mixed model) to privatization is proposed, explored for that context.

Development of an alternative method and design for setting wood utility poles on rock

Bilesky, Heather 13 April 2016 (has links)
Manitoba Hydro’s current practice for setting wood poles onto exposed rock has been generating safety concerns for years. This method entails fusing rebar into holes drilled in the rock with molten sulphur. Unfortunately, accidental overheating of sulphur causes it to lose its strength properties and has lead to numerous premature failures. Full-scale testing by Manitoba Hydro has also revealed that these grouted anchor rods performed poorly in bending at the ground-line while the poles remained in good condition. A research program was conducted at the University of Manitoba’s McQuade Structural Laboratory that focused on developing a prefabricated steel base mount detail. Nine tests were conducted using Lodgepole Pine specimens in the mount with mechanical fasteners, crushed limestone, or sand as the annulus material. The experimental results showed the mount, with either crushed limestone or sand, successfully developed the full moment capacity of the wood pole and satisfied limits on deflection. / May 2016

Proposition d'une approche de gestion autonome pour le support de la QoS et de la QoE dans les réseaux IP / Proposition of autonomic management approach to support the QoS (Quality of Service) and the QoE (Quality of Experience) in IP networks

Derbel Ghorbel, Hajer 03 July 2008 (has links)
La gestion de la qualité des services dans les réseaux IP est devenue une opération complexe et coûteuse pour les operateurs. Les approches de gestion actuelles se sont montionnées peu efficaces par l’importante des interventions humaines necéssaires. La réponse à ce problème est clairement la conception de nouvelles approches de gestion autonome des réseaux. Cette thèse présente un ensemble de solutions qui contribuent à la proposition et la réalisation d’une telle approche. La première partie de cette thèse examine l’état de l’art des approches de gestion des réseaux. Dans la deuxième partie, nous proposons une démarche de mesure de la QoE (Quality of Experience) et une extension du modèle CIM (Common Information Model) pour permettre d’intégrer les métriques de cette démarche. Dans la partie suivante, nous proposons une extension de l’architecture des équipements réseaux vers plus d’autonomie de prise de décision. Dans les parties suiventes, nous proposons une architecture de gestion autonome (ANEMA: Autonomic NEtwork Management Architecture) instrumentée par les politiques comportementales, les objectifs et les fonctions d’utilité. En exploitant un ensemble de politiques de différents niveaux d’abstraction, ANEMA permet au réseau IP d'atteindre un certain niveau d'autonomie dans la gestion de la qualité de ses services. / The quality of services management in IP networks became a very complex and expensive operation from the operators. The actual management approaches are mentioned inefficient because they are mainly based on direct human intervention. It is clear that the response to this problem is to specify autonomic network management approach. This thesis contributes to the specification and the realisation of such approach. The first part of this thesis addresses the state of art of network management approaches. In the second part, we propose a QoE (Quality of Experience) measuring method and a CIM (Common Information Model) extension to model the concepts and the metrics of this method. In the third part, we propose an extension of the network equipment architecture towards more autonomic decision making. In the following parts, we propose an Autonomic NEtwork Management Architecture (ANEMA) based on Behavioral policies, Goal and Utility function. By exploiting several policy description forms described in different abstraction levels, ANEMA allows the IP network to achieve a certain autonomy level in quality of services management.
