The article examines the essence of energy security as a system-forming factor in the development of the national economy of Tajikistan. It is noted that this process is conditioned by the development of evolutionary processes both in the fuel and energy complex system itself, and changes in internal and external environmental factors. Methodological approaches to the analysis of energy security are considered, the analysis of the situation in the fuel and energy complex and strategic development guidelines for Tajikistan are defined. The process of forming a system of indicators and methods for assessing the level of energy security is studied. Threats are identified and recommendations are proposed to improve the level of energy security in Tajikistan. The authors propose a conceptual model for organizing a system for detecting threats to energy security. It is a comparison of the current indicators of the energy system with the normalized ones, the imbalance of which helps to identify and analyze areas for surgical interventions in order to eliminate the causes that lead to a violation of energy security.

Methodological Aspects

One of the most important goals of the energy industry is to ensure a shortage-free and reliable energy supply to consumers. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to assess the level of energy security of the fuel and energy complex (FEC) of the country. For these purposes, it is proposed to form a model of the energy system that would take into account the peculiarities of all process flows that take place in it. For this purpose, we conducted a review of Russian and foreign studies in the field of modeling of the FEC in the course of the work. The main result presented in the article is a methodology for the building of a unified model of the fuel and energy complex to assess the level of energy security.

A tourism destination is defined as an open, complex and adaptive system in which numerous relations in the economic, social and environmental spheres are generated. This paper aims to define a conceptual model of tourism destination management as a complex system and to identify the role of entrepreneurs as key stakeholder in a tourism destination. The main methodological approaches were systems thinking and system dynamics. A Causal Loops Diagram (CLD) enabled to cover the complexity of the tourism system and to identify relations among a number of stakeholders and elements in a tourism destination. The authors identified crucial elements of the entrepreneur sub-system involved in a high number of causal loops to establish the importance of entrepreneurs in the destination management system. Profits of individual entrepreneurs and the occupancy of hospitality and tourism services represent the model’s most frequent variables from the entrepreneurs’ perspective.

Nowadays, energy security is a growing concern in state foreignpolicy. Interdependency in the energy field is a very important dimensionof contemporary relations between states and transnational corporations.Energy security is becoming a key issue for the European Union (EU). TheUnion is one of the world’s fastest-growing energy markets and the biggestimporter of energy resources. For the foreseeable future, Europe’s energydependence will probably increase. Facing a shortage of energy, Europe isdependent on imports and the EU member states need to diversify their energysupplies. The Caspian region contains some of the largest undevelopedoil and gas reserves in the world. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, thenewly independent Caspian states became open to foreign investment. Thegrowing energy needs have given the EU a strong interest in developing tieswith energy-producing states in the Caspian region to build the necessarypipeline infrastructure. In this analysis, the pipeline infrastructure that exists orwill be built in the near future will be presented. The analysis will concentrateon routes transporting gas from the Caspian region and the most importantproblems and solutions in designing the midstream energy system in the region.The key aim of the article is to analyse the Southern Gas Corridor (SGC)infrastructure project, which will inevitably contribute to the EU’s energy securityinterest.

Abstract Background The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a classification of health and health-related states developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) to provide a standard and unified language to be used as a reference model for the description of health and health-related states. The concept of functioning on which ICF is based is that of a “dynamic interaction between a person’s health condition, environmental factors and personal factors”. This overall model has been translated into a classification covering all the main components of functioning. However, the practical use of ICF has highlighted some formal problems, mainly concerning conceptual clarity and ontological coherence. Methods In the present work, we propose an initial ontological formalization of ICF beyond its current status, focusing specifically on the interaction between activities and participation and environmental factors. The formalization has been based on ontology engineering methods to drive goal and scope definition, knowledge acquisition, selection of an upper ontology for mapping, conceptual model definition and evaluation, and finally representation using the Ontology Web Language (OWL). Results A conceptual model has been defined in a graphical language that included 202 entities, when possible mapped to the SUMO upper ontology. The conceptual model has been validated against 60 case studies from the literature, plus 6 ad-hoc case studies. The model has been then represented using OWL. Conclusions This formalization might provide the basis for a revision of the ICF classification in line with current efforts made by WHO on the International Classification of Diseases and on the International Classification of Health Interventions.

Introduction. The topic of renewable energy today is one of the most relevant and requires consideration from the point of view of all components of this process, namely economic, financial, environmental, technological, and others. The transition to renewable energy is already irreversible today since natural resources are depleted, fuel prices are the subject to significant fluctuations, and the stable growth of the national economy is ensured by energy security. The purpose. The purpose of the article is to analyze the volume of global energy consumption, to analyze the impact of the introduction of renewable energy sources on the development of the national economy, to ensure energy security with the depletion of hydrocarbon resources and a slight diversification of their suppliers. Results. Today the Ukrainian economy is the most energy-intensive. Unstable energy prices are a threat both to the global economy and to each country separately. Therefore, in the event of a decrease in the supply of traditional energy resources, the importing countries experience the greatest difficulties. The existing tendency in Ukraine to increase the consumption of traditional energy sources, combined with the absence of a targeted policy aimed at reducing the volume of environmental pollution, will lead to an increase in negative economic consequences. The advantage of renewable energy sources is their equal distribution throughout the country (with the exception of water resources). This feature leads to the formation of one of the main characteristics of power systems based on renewable energy sources, namely, their decentralization. It should be borne in mind that the world energy market is made up of state and non-state participants. Non-state participants are showing an upward trend. However, the state should have the greatest influence on the national energy sector. Renewable energy is an area that, in the Ukrainian context, depends on state support, namely economic and administrative incentives. The dynamics of the development of renewable energy should be combined with the balanced development of the fuel and energy sector in Ukraine. Conclusions. The process of development and transition to renewable energy needs a systematic approach. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches are needed to assess the transition to renewable energy. An effective strategy for the transition to the introduction of renewable energy technologies should be justified by economic feasibility. The transition from traditional energy to renewable sources should lead to energy security, which contributes to stable economic growth, political independence, and improving the quality of the environmental component.
