The problems of multifold increase of technological potential of developing countries are considered in the article. To solve them, i.e. to organize effectively tapping into global knowledge and their absorption, the performance of two diffusion channels is considered: open knowledge transfer and commercial knowledge transfer. The models of technological catching-up are investigated. Two of them are found to give an opportunity of effective use of international competition and global technology knowledge as a driver of technology development.


This chapter is a transcript of Haq’s address to the North South Roundtable of 1992, where he identifies five critical challenges for the global economy for the future. If addressed properly, these can change the course of human history. He stresses on the need for redefining security to include security for people, not just of land or territories; to redefine the existing models of development to include ‘sustainable human development’; to find a more pragmatic balance between market efficiency and social compassion; to forge a new partnership between the North and the South to address issues of inequality; and the need to think on new patterns of governance for the next decade.

AbstractTo characterize time of spring emergence following post-diapause development, Delia radicum (L.) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) from Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and southwestern Ontario were collected in fall, maintained over winter at 1 °C, then transferred to higher constant temperatures until adult emergence. At each location there were “early” and “late” phenotypes. Truncated normal models of temperature dependency of development rate were fitted for each phenotype from each location. We provide the first evidence of geographic variation in the criteria separating these phenotypes. Separation criteria and models for early and late phenotypes at the two prairie locations, approximately 700 km apart, were indistinguishable, but differed from those for Ontario. Prairie phenotypes developed more slowly than Ontario phenotypes, and more prairie individuals were of the late phenotype. Poor synchronization of spring emergence could impair predation of D. radicum eggs by adult Aleochara bilineata Gyllenhal (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae). Aleochara bilineata from Manitoba were reared and development rates modelled as for D. radicum. Models of development rates for the two species, when combined with simulated soil temperatures for two prairie locations, suggest that emergence of adult A. bilineata is well synchronized with availability of D. radicum eggs in prairie canola.

ABSTRACTThe The increasingly difficult economic conditions require educational institutions at the tertiary level to develop a model for collecting funds from the community, one of which is through cash waqf. Airlangga University already has a model of developing and utilizing campus-based cash waqf. So with this waqf solution the community can be helped especially by students to continue their education. From here the authors are encouraged to conduct research on "Models of Development and Utilization of Cash Waqf for Higher Education (Case Study of Waqf Amerta Airlangga.".With the formulation of the problem: first, How to use cash waqf for higher education in Amerta Airlangga Waqf. Second, how to model the development of cash waqf in Amerta Airlangga. The method of this study used qualitative-descriptive because the data was qualitative, the data was not quantitative which used statistic. Practically, the data collection used three methods, they were: interview, observation, and documentation.Based on the results of research in Waqf Amerta Airlangga, it is known that the Community donated funds to the Waqf Amerta Airlangga through PUSPAS which is divided into two types, namely non-endowment social donations and endowment donations. Then some of the non-waqf funds were directly put into social donation accounts which could be directly utilized for the Airlangga University PUSPAS program, by 85%. While the other 15% is for the operations of PUSPAS Airlangga University. The Waqf Fund through the Amerta Endowments program will be managed separately for the fund as an investment in a number of portfolios. Key Words : Development and Utilization Model, Cash Waqf, Higher Education

Knowledge of the properties of reservoir oil is necessary when calculating reserves, creating projects development, creating hydrodynamic models of development objects. Reservoir oil properties are determined by downhole samples taken, as usual, from exploration and production wells. In some cases, it is impossible to create conditions for the selection of high-quality downhole samples at exploration and production wells. In such cases, we must use samples of surface oil to obtain information about the reservoir properties of this oil. In this work and as a result of the analysis of the accumulated data, dependencies with a high degree of correlation were obtained, which make it possible to quickly assess the expected parameters of reservoir oil, having only the density of surface oil.

This research aimed to design and assess the feasibility of Adobe Flash aided learning media for CNC Turning subject, specifically for the coordinate system topic. The research was a research and development study using the Four-D models of development. Four-D model consists of 4 steps, namely define, design, develop, and disseminate. The instrument being used on this research was closed questionnaires with 4 choices Likert scale. The questionnaires were validated by expert evaluation. Data were collected from the 32 respondents. Data, which were quantitative and qualitative, were analyzed using descriptive analysis technique. The result shows that the learning media meets the teachers’ and students’ needs and expectation. For the feasibility level, the contents expert gave an average score of 3.37 which can be categorized as “very good”. The expert in media gave an average score of 3.45 which is in the “very good” category. The Teacher of the respective subject gave an average score of 3.38 and is categorized as “very good”. Students respond well with a score of 3.47 were given, which can be categorized as “very good”. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah merancang media pembelajaran berbantuan adobe flash untuk mata pelajaran CNC Turning dengan sistem koordinat. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan dengan model pengembangan Four-D Models yang terdiri dari 4 tahap yaitu define, design, develop, dan disseminate. Instrumen yang digunakan berupa angket dengan skala Likert 4 pilihan jawaban. Angket divalidasi oleh ahli evaluasi. Pengambilan data dilakukan kepada 32 responden. Data kualitatif dan kuantitatif yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa media pembelajaran yang dikembangkan telah disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan dan tuntutan dari guru dan siswa. Tingkat kelayakan media pembelajaran menurut ahli materi mendapatkan rerata nilai sebesar 3,37 dengan kategori “sangat baik”. Hasil validasi ahli media memperoleh rerata nilai sebesar 3,45 dengan kategori “sangat baik”. Hasil validasi guru pengampu memperoleh rerata nilai sebesar 3,38 dengan kategori “sangat baik”.
