Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Tourism sector in Kazakhstan is not so developed. But as we know the Republic of Kazakhstan is in the list of new states and the future of its tourism can be viewed as perfect. Kazakhstan is one of the post-Soviet states. The Republic of Kazakhstan is well known for rather unique natural and geographic conditions. Kazakhstan owns many things for every kind of tourist. A history and diverse ethnic heritage have left scores of diverse sights of interest for the sightseer. The natural environment offers innumerable opportunities in eco and sports tourism, the latter including trekking, mountaineering - particularly mountains, fishing and hunting, the latter already popular with an established clientele who value the diversity of species available and the relatively low cost of such trips. The wealth of religious sites, mostly, but not all, connected with Islam, attract a steady and growing number of visitors. That's why the tourism sector in Kazakhstan is growing up year by year.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -With the advances in wireless technologies and development of mobile devices, Mobile Ad hoc Networks have emerged as the milestone and play an important role in establishing communication using no fixed infrastructure. Nodes are free to move randomly and communicate with each other through single hop if within transmission range or through multiple hop beyond transmission range. Due to unpredictable behavior of such networks, it is difficult to maintain the required Quality of Service (QoS). QoS in MANETs refers to the provision of guaranteed services on the network layer, defined in the performance metrics between application and service provider. The first important task in QoS network routing is to find a feasible route through the network between source and destination. This route should satisfy all the requirements to fulfill the QoS constraints for the desired service. The focus of the book throughout has been on the study and development of QoS constrained routing protocols to ensure better QoS provisioning.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The study concerns the interface of resource based conflicts and their impact on pastoral livelihood with reference to the Basongora pastoral community who have been at the centre of land conflicts as they claim ancestral rights to ownership of Queen Elizabeth National Park (QENP)and other neighboring pasturelands. This conflict has not only affected human race but also the environmental race. The study specifically established resources and how they have precipitated conflicts; the effects of the conflict; challenges involved in resolving this conflict and livelihood strategies and resolution mechanisms adopted. The findings revealed that,resource based conflicts have negatively impacted on pastoral livelihood and conservation as well. QINP conservation policies have not considered effective coexistence between the park and the pastoral community. The Government of Uganda could use this work to create a ground of building trust as an approach to reconcile conflicting parties. Policy makers and practitioners will be aided by this book to generate appropriate policies and guidelines towards addressing resource based conflicts in developing countries and the world at large. 100 pp. Englisch.

This makes the environment an eye sore and a sorry place to live. Rules and regulations should be put in place to protect the lagoon from pollution. Also, sediment traps and gritting should be provided in drains leading into the lagoon. This will stop refuse from getting into the lagoon. Small scale industries along the lagoon should be relocated to reduce the extent of pollution of the lagoon. It is believed that when these measures and others are adhered to the extent of pollution will be minimised, if not completely eradicated. 72 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of this book is to shed light over the relationship between aid organizations and quality assurance. More specifically, we aim to identify the challenges with quality assurance work in the context of Swedish party affiliated organizations. We have studied the process of quality assurance work in aid organizations, namely the Swedish party affiliated organizations, PAOs. During this process we have examined three of the organizations more closely, all of which have been in different stages of implementation. We have conducted a number of interviews with key individuals related to this process. From our empirics we identified a wide range of challenges which we narrowed down into six areas in our analysis. However, the most central aspect in our conclusion is the definition of quality. It is crucial for the entire quality assurance process that a common definition of quality is established among all involved participants. The definition of quality is the underlying variable that when identified defines all other parts of the quality assurance process and is also the key factor when solving the equation of each challenge. 96 pp. Englisch.

Infection often leads to bloody diarrhoea, and occasionally to kidney failure. Several strains of the bacteria Escherichia coli produce a powerful toxin which causes serious illness. Food and water can be contaminated with other bacteria like Salmonella, Coliform, Pseudomonas, etc. Hence, it has become important to rapidly detect and identify infectious bacteria. Colloidal luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) have elicited a great deal of interest in the biosensing community due to their unique fluorescent properties. Here ZnS:Mn2+ QDs are synthesised and biofunctionalised with chitosan. They are attached to the anionic cell wall of E. coli bacteria and different properties of this compound system are studied. These nanocrystals may offer cost effective and quicker alternative to detect single bacterium compared to other conventional methods. Several characterization methods are discussed. The particle size calculated is approximately 8 10nm. The blue shift of PL peak has been observed after the bacteria get attached. 76 pp. Englisch.

Because of their predominantly pastoral way of life, they have an indigenous, unique information exchange system called Dagu. The Dagu is an oral, interpersonal communication performance done as a ritual by the members of the Afar ethnic group in Ethiopia. It is held in a highest of regards by the Afar due to the fact that their livelihood is very much dependent on the information they get from Dagu. They get any current information ranging from weather to availability of grazing lands for their cattle. Studying such indigenous knowledge systems and making sure that they are taken seriously in the entire processes of human development is not a common sight in the world of academia these days. Therefore, by doing such study, the author hopes to make sure that unique indigenous systems like Dagu are studied and stored systematically. 72 pp. Englisch.
