A program for the independent verification of brachytherapy planning system calculations
2010
Purpose: In this work a spreadsheet based program is presented that to a large extent independently verifies the calculations of individual plans of brachytherapy treatment planning systems for low dose rate, high dose rate and pulsed dose rate techniques.Material and methods: The verification program has been developed based on workbooks/spreadsheets. The treatment planning system output text files are automatically loaded into the new program, allowing the use of the source coordinates, the desired calculation point coordinates, and the dwell times of a patient plan. The source strength and the reference dates are entered by the user and then dose points calculations are independently per…
The Role of Spatial Plans Adopted at the Local Level in the Spatial Planning Systems of Central and Eastern European Countries
2022
The article deals with the issue of spatial plans at the local level. The aims of this paper are (1) extracting the characteristics of local spatial plans that can be compared more broadly (2) identifying, on this basis, the role of spatial plans at the local level in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). In achieving these aims, the authors have critically examined spatial plans and their performance, as well as the planning systems they belong to. Hence, they have investigated the types of local plans in each country, their legal features, and the layout of their content. This examination has revealed a host of problems in the workings of the CEE planning systems. The article…
Systemic Management of Architectural Decisions in Enterprise Architecture Planning. Four Dimensions and Three Abstraction Levels
2006
This paper presents a process model for the management of architectural decisions in enterprise architecture planning. First, decisions are made at the enterprise level, with strategic business considerations on the enterprise information, systems and technology strategy and governance issues. The next step is to define the domains, to then go on with domain architecture decisions. At the systems level, the enterprise and domain architecture decisions are collected and converted into architecture descriptions accurate in precision, form and detail to be given as input to the information systems development process, following the architectural planning. The model is derived from previous wor…
Racjonalizacja planowania rozwoju miast w aspekcie teoretycznym i praktycznym
2021
Punktem wyjścia w dyskusji o ewolucji systemu zarządzania rozwojem miast jest zazwyczaj analiza jego braków i słabości. Rzadziej są nim stosowane przez gminy praktyki planistyczne, które zwiększają skuteczność i racjonalność podejmowanych działań. Artykuł stanowi esencjonalny przegląd aktualnych dobrych praktyk z obszarów planowania przestrzennego i strategicznego, obrazujących oddolne i nieskodyfikowane działania samorządów lokalnych.Przykłady zostały osadzone w teoretycznych ramach holistycznego ujęcia problemu rozwoju miast. Celem artykułu, poza ilustracją zagadnień wraz z ich teoretyczną podbudową, jest inspiracja do zmian w kształcie opisanej przepisami prawa ustawowej części systemu p…
ERP in small service companies
2013
The purpose of this thesis was to provide knowledge on the organizational and performance consequences of management control systems. The examination into prior literature yielded information on the benefits and challenges related to ERP systems, the position of ERP systems in the overall control environment of the company, and how ERP influences the ensemble of management control systems. By leaning to the prior work of Chapman and Kihn (2009), a survey research was conducted aiming to discover if information system integration (ISI) embedded in ERP supported the enabling approach to management control, and whether this in turn would result into higher performance and perceived system succ…
Challenges of Government Enterprise Architecture Work – Stakeholders’ Views
2008
At present, a vast transformation within government systems is executed towards electronic government. In some countries, this change is initiated as enterprise architecture work. This paper introduces results from an empirical study on different stakeholders' views on enterprise architecture development within Finnish state government. The data is gathered from 21 interviews accomplished during spring 2007 among participants of the Interoperability Programme of Finnish state administration. The interviewees represent different sectors and levels of Finnish government and IT companies. On the basis of qualitative data analysis we discuss challenges of enterprise architecture work in the con…
SAP konfigurēšanas iespēju izmantošana uzņēmuma biznesa procesu atbalstam
2016
Jebkuras organizācijas darbība balstās uz vairāk vai mazāk strukturētiem procesiem, jo neviens nemēģina sasniegt iecerētos rezultātus, katru reizi izmantojot citus līdzekļus, bet gan izmanto jau pārbaudītas pieejas. Un ja organizācija nodarbojas ar biznesa procesu realizēšanu SAP sistēmā, tad katram biznesa procesam ir nepieciešama iestatījumu konfigurācija sistēmā. Darbā tiek aplūkota SAP sistēmas konfigurēšana, lai to pielāgotu organizācijas biznesa procesiem un no tās izejošas problēmas ar iespēju tos atrisināt.
MANUFACTURING E-MARKETPLACES: INNOVATIVE TOOLS FOR THE EXTENDED ENTERPRISE
2005
This Chapter introduces the research carried out under the research program titled “Distributed process and production planning in manufacturing enterprise networks” and funded by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR) under the program PRIN2001. The research program aimed at developing an innovative concept of neutral linear e-marketplace able to support manufacturing enterprises networks in transactional, information sharing and exchange and collaborative relationship. The Chapter discusses the needs of innovative tools for supporting the new paradigm of the “extended enterprise” showing how the e-marketplace concept, when specific added value services are desig…
12C ion beam dose distribution in presence of medium inhomogeneities: comparison between different measurements and simulations with the treatment pl…
2012
Heavy-ions beams offer several advantages compared to other radiation such as low lateral scattering and high biological effectiveness (RBE) in the Bragg peak region, making them particularly attractive for the treatment of radio-resistant tumours localized close to organs at risk [1]. The extension of ion therapy to new clinical cases requires the exploitation of a dedicated treatment planning system (TPS) based on the existing version of TRiP98 [2,3], established TPS for carbon ions. The theoretical models and experimental databases included in TRiP98 are presently mainly based on measurements in water. This approximation can be applied successfully to reproduce many biological tissues wi…
