This study presents three main approaches; The rooting methodology for the subject of the study; Taking into account the analysis of the status of research and studies, and the importance that touches upon the very essence of community development. Not only that; But even in the renaissance and advancement of nations regionally and continentally. And also, to have a look at the reasons that stand stumbling block in failing to achieve that, and despite the existence of extensive research and studies in all fields of development, which is represented in the large gap between research institutions and policy makers in Arab States. But even at the continental level, that is why we find it flounder when make decisions, and low level of services provided by the governments. This is due to these decisions are not based on prior studies, to insure simulate the particularity of the decision with the purpose for which it was established, where we would like to clarify through this study to Touching the concept of scientific research, and to shows the importance of scientific research in the development of societies, and to recognize the reality of this interactive relation between the two directions; Research Institutions and decision-makers.

In an aim to contribute to already existing knowledge upon the subject of smart cities and the public sector’s wider knowledge in Europe, this study investigates the perception by the municipalities and the wider public sector, responsible for implementing smart solutions in the environment. The understanding of the concept of smart cities/villages by municipalities is on a low level due to the fact that the problem is too wide, not well described, solutions even wider, accompanied by the lack of experts able to offer comprehensive solutions to municipalities. The study presents factors according to the current municipalities’ knowledge (environmental awareness, knowledge and prior experience) and the existing market, of whether these factors can be said that affect the acceptance of smart cities. The public is already aware of the smart cities as a general concept, however, the study sheds light upon the established knowledge that the decision makers have in five countries, Hungary, Slovakia, Italy, Lithuania, and Denmark.

The Impact

In recent years, the scientific community has been urged to undertake research that can immediately have impact on development issues, including national policies, strategies, and people's livelihoods, among others. While this is a fair call from decision makers, it should also be realized that science by nature is about innovation, discovery and knowledge generation. In this context, there is need for a balance between long term scientific investigations and short term scientific applications. With regard to the former, researchers spend years investigating (or need data of sufficient record length) to provide sound and reliable solutions to a problem at hand while in the latter, it is possible to reach a solution with few selected analyses. In all cases, it is advisable that researchers, where possible should link their studies to topical development issues in their case studies. In this paper, we use a hydrometeorological project in the Notwane catchment, Botswana, to show the importance of linking research to development agenda for mutual benefit of researchers and policy makers. The results indicate that some key development issues are being addressed by the Project and the scope exists to improve the impact of the project.

The paper deals with the issue of referring a person to the criminal hierarchy status leaders. While studying criminal subculture, the author specified criminological signs of the criminal ranking highest position, identified functional, status, and attributive signs of taking the highest position in the criminal hierarchy. The thief-in-law, the overseer, and the loyalist represent the status leaders of the criminal ranking. The author developed a general methodology for the new forensic and criminological examination of taking the highest position in the criminal hierarchy. Actual data concerning the behavior of a person inspected containing in the case materials is the object of the examination. The subject of this examination is formulated as a complex of functional, status, and attributive features of any criminal hierarchy leader. The task of the proposed expertise is to clear up if a person has the status of the leader of the criminal hierarchy or not. The paper describes the specifics of the stages of this examination. At the preparatory stage, an expert checks the reliability of the objects presented, identifying the signs of their falsification, destruction, and modification. The author recommends carrying out mandatory verification and supporting the expert initiative. At the stage of independent research, an expert establishes key behavioral characteristics of a person inspected. Provided that they are sufficient, the next stage implies comparing them with a set of signs and features which are typical for people taking the highest positions in the criminal hierarchy. The final stage examination contains the evaluation of coincidences and formulation of conclusions. The author gives the recommendations on the expertise relating the conditional forms of conclusions based on the results of the examination of taking the highest position in the criminal hierarchy; proposes validating general and specific methods of expertise of taking the hierarchy highest position in terms of scientific research.

Abstract The scientific literature on the subject of welfare and pain in crustaceans is immature. It is based largely on a few dubious and disputed studies done on a small number of decapod species in instances where nociception was not confirmed, laboratory artefacts occurred, all variables that potentially influence the results were not fully controlled, and interpretations of results were questionable or contradictory. The proposed criteria for pain being applied to crustaceans since 2014 has set the “evidential bar” for pain so low it is impossible to have confidence that the behaviours observed in many experiments are even due to nociception, extinguishing scientific confidence that these behaviours are in any way analogous to how the word pain is defined, used, and understood by humans. Given the critical flaws in design and interpretation of several crustacean “pain” studies, acceptance of claims of pain for these animals, even as a precautionary measure, represents acceptance of a much lower evidential bar than is usually dictated by normal scientific standards. This may lead to circumstances whereby the precautionary principle, underpinned by weak science, is used by decision makers to justify unnecessary constraints on scientific research or other uses of crustaceans, imparting significant costs to scientific programs (and potentially food production industries), which are likely to exceed any benefits from changes in welfare status that may (or may not) accrue to these animals.

Definition Of

The legislation of Ukraine does not contain a legal definition of the concept of “jurisdiction”, although at the theoretical level this legal category has repeatedly become the subject of scientific research, its content and types have been constantly transformed depending on changes in the legislation of Ukraine. The socio-political situation caused by the violation of the territorial integrity of Ukraine, the priority of the state’s criminal policy in the fight against terrorism, corruption, have become a prerequisite for the emergence of new bodies of pre-trial investigation, changes in the procedural status of the investigator. This allows us to continue scientific research in the direction of improving the definition of “jurisdiction”, the definition of its characteristic components, species and more. The article discusses the relation between the terms “investigator competence” and “jurisdiction”, arguing that the former is broader. Attention is drawn to the normative construction of the articles of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which define the rules of subsidiarity, in particular, in retrospect. Analysis of the criteria under which a criminal proceeding is assigned to the sphere of activity (management) of a particular pre-trial investigation body, in particular, the place of commission of a criminal offense, qualification of a criminal offense (event of a criminal offense, nature of the consequences, the subject of the criminal offense, its form guilt), the special status of the subject of the crime, the type and size of the object of the crime and the harm caused by the criminal offense, the status of the victim, the connectedness of actions, etc., allowed to conclude on the expediency of introducing into scientific circulation the concept of “criminal procedural characteristics of criminal offenses” The author defines the concept of “jurisdiction” by which the constituent competence of an investigator for conducting pre-trial investigation of a certain category of criminal proceedings, which is determined depending on the criminal procedural characteristic of a criminal offense, should be understood.
