Download or read book L valuation de l information Confiance et d fiance written by CAPET Philippe and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lors de la réception d’une information, nous ne restons jamais passifs : selon son origine et ses contenus, à partir de nos croyances et convictions personnelles, spontanément ou après réflexion, nous lui accordons une certaine confiance. Excessive, celle-ci témoigne d’une certaine naïveté, tandis qu’une défiance absolue confine à la paranoïa ; ces deux attitudes sont symétriquement préjudiciables à la bonne perception de cette information comme à son usage. Hors de ces deux situations extrêmes, chacun adopte généralement une position intermédiaire face à une information reçue, selon sa provenance et sa crédibilité. Encore faut-il comprendre et justifier comment ces jugements sont conçus, dans quel contexte et à quelle fin. À partir d’approches graduelles offertes par la philosophie, le renseignement militaire, l’algorithmie puis l’informatique, cet ouvrage présente les concepts de l’information et de la confiance qui lui est faite, les méthodes que les armées, premières conscientes du besoin, ont adoptées ou le devraient, les outils pour y aider, et les perspectives qu’ils ouvrent. Au-delà du contexte militaire, le livre dessine un schéma global de l’évaluation de l’information utilisable dans bien d’autres domaines tels que l’intelligence économique, et plus largement la veille informationnelle gouvernementale et d’entreprises.

This book was released on 2006-01-23 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaknesses in planning and implementation (P&I) have been identified as one of the main reasons for the disappointing results of agricultural water development and management projects. Based on a review and critical analysis of experiences and case studies in sub-Saharan Africa, this studycomponent proposes practical ways of improving performance related to planning and implementation and thereby enhancing the returns to investments in agricultural water.
Download or read book Flood Evaluation and Dam Safety written by CIGB ICOLD and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrology and dams are two fields that are obviously closely related. Four bulletins have so far been published by the Committee: Selection of Design Flood – Current methods, Dams and Floods – Guidelines and cases histories, Role of Dams in Flood Mitigation – A review and Integrated Flood Management. These bulletins have essentially addressed floods, the risks they represent and their significance for the concerned populations. The present Bulletin deviates slightly from this path, adopting a somewhat more technical perspective. The text consists of three chapters, conceived to be accessible to the practitioners.
Download or read book Hazards of Nature Risks to Development written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evaluation carried out by the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG), an autonomous body reporting directly to the Board of Executive Directors of the World Bank Group to assess the effectiveness of the Bank's development efforts, and one of the most comprehensive reviews of disaster preparedness and response ever conducted. Calls for new thinking that integrates predictable disaster risks into development programs. Concludes that it is possible to anticipate where many natural disasters will strike, yet expresses concerns that the World Bank's disaster assistance efforts are underutilizing these vital lifesaving forecasts.

This book was released on 2005-09-12 with total page 3742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 16th ICSMGE responds to the needs of the engineering and construction community, promoting dialog and exchange between academia and practice in various aspects of soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. This is reflected in the central theme of the conference 'Geotechnology in Harmony with the Global Environment'. The proceedings of the conference are of great interest for geo-engineers and researchers in soil mechanics and geotechnical engineering. Volume 1 contains 5 plenary session lectures, the Terzaghi Oration, Heritage Lecture, and 3 papers presented in the major project session. Volumes 2, 3, and 4 contain papers with the following topics: Soil mechanics in general; Infrastructure and mobility; Environmental issues of geotechnical engineering; Enhancing natural disaster reduction systems; Professional practice and education. Volume 5 contains the report of practitioner/academic forum, 20 general reports, a summary of the sessions and workshops held during the conference.

Download or read book Bangladesh written by Roger J. Robinson and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Bangladesh evokes profound, moving impressions. The country is the most densely populated state in the world. It has limited natural resources and is highly vulnerable to natural disasters. Famine is an ever-present danger... Emerging from a bloody war in 1971, the country's capacity to survive was widely doubted. But Bangladesh has survived, and has made progress in economic and social development." Despite the political traumas from 1977 to 1980, Bangladesh has made progress in economic and social development and has been transformed over the past 16 years. From the country's inception, the World Bank has been involved in Bangladesh's economic development. The International Development Association (IDA) has financed about a quarter of all foreign aid commitments. However, Bangladesh's dependence on foreign aid has raised concerns regarding sovereignty and self-reliance in the development process. This Country Assistance Review (CAR) presents the findings of an Operations Evaluation Department team that visited Bangladesh in August/September 1996. It represents a synthesis of the key findings of the evaluation. The CAR's main conclusion is that IDA's assistance to Bangladesh has been effective, and the partnership forged with the government has brought some notable successes. The lessons drawn from it are presented at a strategic level and are applicable in Bangladesh and other countries.

Download or read book Sedimentation and Sustainable Use of Reservoirs and River Systems S dimentation et Utilisation Durable des R servoirs et Syst mes Fluviaux written by ICOLD CIGB and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICOLD Bulletin 147 discusses the upstream and downstream fluvial morphological impacts of reservoir sedimentation and possible mitigation measures. The current state of and possible future sediment deposition in reservoirs have been investigated globally with the aid of the ICOLD Register on Dams. The global mean reservoir sedimentation rate was found to be 0.8 % of the original storage capacity per year. The book also investigates the impacts of dams on the ecology related to fluvial morphological changes, and guidelines are proposed to mitigate the impacts on the downstream river morphology. Finally an economical model is presented which considers a life cycle approach for reservoir conservation. Ce CIGB Bulletin 147 traite des impacts morphologiques fluviaux en amont et en aval de la sédimentation des réservoirs et des mesures d'atténuation possibles. L'état actuel et l'avenir possible du dépôt de sédiments dans les réservoirs ont été étudiés à l'échelle mondiale à l'aide du registre des barrages de la CIGB. Le taux moyen mondial de sédimentation des réservoirs s'est avéré être de 0,8 % de la capacité de stockage initiale par an. Le livre étudie également les impacts des barrages sur l'écologie liés aux changements morphologiques fluviaux, et des directives sont proposées pour atténuer les impacts sur la morphologie des rivières en aval. Enfin, un modèle économique est présenté qui prend en compte une approche de cycle de vie pour la conservation des réservoirs.
