The French model of National Education, developed from the Third Republic, is based on free education and equal opportunities in access to education and culture. “The Nation guarantees equal access for children and adults to education, training and culture. The organization of free and secular public education at all levels is a duty of the state ”thus stipulates paragraph 13 of the Preamble to the Constitution of October 27, 1946. Higher education scholarships are a tool of education policy which aims to ensure this fundamental principle of equality. Like any public policy, it must be monitored, evaluated and steered, in particular within the framework of the new financial constitution of August 1, 2001, called the Organic Law relating to Finance Laws (I.G.A.E.N.R., 2007). In 2008, 1.48 billion euros were spent on scholarships, of which more than 89% were scholarships on social criteria intended to benefit around 487,000 students (Marini, 2007). This figure represents around a quarter of students enrolled in higher education in France for the year 2007-2008 (M.E.S.R., 2009). If all the grants are taken into account, this percentage is around 30%. However, several reports have raised a lack of tools and literature on the evaluation of the scholarship allocation system, a report from the 2006 parliamentary mission to the Minister of National Education, Higher Education and Research highlights in these terms the lack of monitoring and evaluation tools: "One of the findings of this report was the contrast between the considerable amount allocated to this policy with, paradoxically, such little monitoring and control". This work aims precisely to provide elements of evaluation and monitoring of this policy, by proposing an evaluation of the system of allocation of scholarships according to two axes - equity and efficiency - as well as an index making it possible to follow over time the level of the aid allocated and the extent of its coverage. These analyzes and results are based on statistical studies carried out on the annual databases of student applicants for grants between 1998 and 2007, provided by the Department of Evaluation, Forecasting and Performance (DEPP) and on the data triennial surveys on “Living conditions of students” collected by the Observatory of student life (OVE).

The organizational and pedagogical conditions for training higher education applicants by learning tools of a competence-oriented environment are analysed. Such pedagogical conditions include integration of the educational process in the context of the face-to-face training and a competence-oriented computer environment, providing systematic interactive work and performance of rating tasks in a learning environment focused on competence and systematic monitoring and control over the process of training of higher education applicants. In order to study the feasibility of using organizational and pedagogical conditions for the training of higher education applicants by learning tools of a competence-oriented environment, the degree of competence of the expert commission was checked and the indicators of competences of experts were calculated. Experimental work on determining the coefficient of concordance gives the opportunity to state that the opinions of experts on the organizational and pedagogical conditions for the training of higher education applicants by learning tools of a competence-oriented computer environment are consistent. It is noted that the implementation of organizational and pedagogical conditions, in fact, involves the optimization of educational and cognitive activities of higher education applicants, and taking into account certain conditions will lead to renewal, productivity, continuity and integrity of acquisition of the competences.

This chapter shares some of the ‘lessons learned' from the author's perspective of adopting a higher education services provider as partner for the design, development, and delivery of online postgraduate provision. Ultimately, partnering with a higher education services provider for the development of online learning offers distinct benefits in terms of marketing support, project management, and instructional design but the key to ensuring the partnership works effectively and impacts positively upon student experience, is to ensure a clear delineation of roles and responsibilities from the outset, avoid unnecessary shifts in personnel, and have a system of monitoring and control in place from the university's perspective to ensure that roles and responsibilities within the partnership are being upheld.

The importance of inter-organizational trust to project success has been increasingly highlighted in the construction industry. This study aims to explore the role of trust between project parties. It adopts a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodologies. Based on the analysis of the responses of a questionnaire survey, trust is demonstrated to have a significant contribution to the development of cooperative or collaborative relationships; fostering trust proves to have a major influence on the improvement of project performance; and some relationship and performance indicators are found to have closer associations with trust than others so that trust is more important to the development of relationship and the improvement of performance in these aspects. The analysis of questionnaire responses also provides significant evidence for the reduction in monitoring and control following the increase of mutual trust. The questionnaire survey is followed by a series of expert interviews, both of which contribute to the establishment of a model that links trust with relationship and performance and distinguishes the new approach that is based on trust from the traditional mechanism that relies on monitoring and control.

The way adults perceive and regulate learning (metamemory) is an important indicator of how they perform on memory tasks. This study assessed memory monitoring, control and performance in young and intermediate-age adults according to item type (with or without semantic relation), type of judgment of learning (JOL - immediate or delayed), and age. Twenty-six young adults (M = 22 years old) and 18 intermediate-age adults (M = 47 years old) participated, who responded to an experimental paradigm to evaluate metamemory. Results showed that related word-pairs received higher magnitude for the JOLs and better cued-recall scores. JOLs’ accuracy was similar between the age groups, delayed JOLs being more accurate only for young adults. Intermediate-age adults apparently based their allocation of study time less on JOLs or cued-recall than young adults.

Purpose – In order to meet the requirements of 6σ management and to overcome the deficiencies of the theory for using the pre-control chart to evaluate and monitor quality stability, the purpose of this paper is to probe into the quality stability evaluation and monitoring guidelines of small batch production process based on the pre-control chart under the conditions of the distribution center and specifications center non-coincidence (0<ɛ≤1.5σ), the process capability index C p ≥2 and the virtual alarm probability α=0.27 percent. Design/methodology/approach – First, the range of the quality stability evaluation sampling number in initial production process is determined by using probability and statistics methods, the sample size for the quality stability evaluation is adjusted and determined in initial production process according to the error judgment probability theory, and the guideline for quality stability evaluation has been proposed in initial production process based on the theory of small probability events. Second, the alternative guidelines for quality stability monitoring and control in formal production process are proposed by using combination theory, the alternative guidelines are initially selected based on the theory of small probability events, a comparative analysis of the guidelines is made according to the average run lengths values, and the monitoring and control guidelines for quality stability are determined in formal production process. Findings – The results obtained from research indicate that when the virtual alarm probability α=0.27 percent, the shifts ɛ in the range 0<ɛ≤1.5σ and the process capability index C p ≥2, the quality stability evaluation sample size of the initial production process is 11, whose scondition is that the number of the samples falling into the yellow zone is 1 at maximum. The quality stability evaluation sample size of the formal production process is 5, and when the number of the samples falling into the yellow zone is ≤1, the process is stable, while when two of the five samples falling into the yellow, then one more sample needs to be added, and only if this sample falls into the green zone, the process is stable. Originality/value – Research results can overcome the unsatisfactory 6σ management assumptions and requirements and the oversize virtual alarm probability α of the past pre-control charts, as well as the shortage only adaptable to the pre-control chart when the shifts ɛ=0. And at the same time, the difficult problem hard to adopt the conventional control charts to carry out process control because of a fewer sample sizes is solved.

Area Monitoring

Nowadays, the control of power systems relies on wide-area monitoring and control system (WAMS), which continuously measures and registers state vector values and is synchronized by signals from the uniform time system. A significant part of this system is the local information network, whose reliability largely determines the proper functioning of WAMS. One can assess the said reliability by dividing it into components. These are hardware or technical reliability associated with failure (destruction) of transmission channel elements or the integrity of communication lines, traffic reliability determined by time loss or data distortion without failure of a transmission channel element, software reliability related to errors in the development of exchange execution programs, and resilience against an external deliberate impact on the transmitted information. This paper addresses the assessment of the first three reliability components of the information network, shows its total value, and estimates the contribution of each component. The last component (resistance to an external deliberate action) is described in a huge number of works, which is why it is not considered in this paper.

Higher education in Indonesia is a national education subsystem that includes undergraduate, master's, specialist, doctoral, and diploma programs. Higher education institutions are obliged to organize education, research, and community service in accordance with their vision, mission, goals, tasks, and authority. A large number of universities has led to intense competition in getting prospective students. Therefore, universities must have a good "marketing strategy" to continue to exist in the face of competition between universities. Marketing strategies must be based on marketing objectives that consider environmental aspects (Dharmmesta, 2014). Marketing strategies took in connection with existing conditions, SWOT analysis, organization, and control at the University of Singapore Karawang based on Education Quality Standards (accredited). Efforts to monitor the implementation of marketing strategies related to the achievement of performance targets for increasing the number of applicants, including re-registration, the achievement of external and internal marketing activities.

In this work, a new type of cam-based variable valve timing system has been proposed based on the “lost motion” principle. Using this mechanism, the problems with the valve transition time and control complexity which are still serious concerns for camless valve train systems are solved. This mechanism not only allows the engine to work at different modes of operation as an air hybrid engine but also enables it for continuous torque management. In this system, the control methodology utilizes a cam position feedback to control the valve opening timing. A combination of hydraulic and mechanical systems was utilized to offer high flexibility and robustness in the engine valve control system. A zero dimensional analysis is also conducted to evaluate the functionality and performance of the proposed system.
