In recent years, activities related to socio-economic development have led to land cover (LC) changes in the upper part of the Dong Nai river basin. The use of remote sensing applications to analyse the impacts of these changes plays an important role in the managing the sustainability of the river basin. This paper introduces a solution for analysing the impacts of LC changes on the water balance in the upstream catchment of the Dong Nai river in Lam Dong province. Landsat images were used for mapping and monitoring major changes over the last 20 years.

One of the software engineering interests is quality assurance activities such as testing, verification and validation, fault tolerance and fault prediction. When any company does not have sufficient budget and time for testing the entire application, a project manager can use some fault prediction algorithms to identify the parts of the system that are more defect prone.

The CDM market has witnessed dramatic progress in the past few months, with more than 1,700 projects in the pipeline by March 2007. However, CDM project development still faces barriers that prevent a much larger potential expansion in the number of CDM projects worldwide. Many project developers identify lack of access to financing as one of the key reasons why numerous CDM project concepts never materialise. This has been the case especially for Africa and for other parts of the developing world.

After the logframe matrix has been completed, further planning can take place to add operational detail to the plan. An activity schedule is a method of presenting the activities of a project, which identifies their logical sequence and any dependencies that exist between them, and provides a basis for allocating management responsibility for completing each activity. With the activity schedule prepared, the job of further specifying inputs and scheduling costs can be started.

The logframe is the main output of the LFA. Before describing the logframe in detail, however, it is worth making a cautionary note. The logframe, for all its advantages when clearly understood and professionally applied, provides no magic solution to identifying or designing good projects. The principle of ‘garbage in, garbage out’ can apply to the logframe if it is used mechanistically. When used properly the logframe helps to make the logical relationships between activities, results, purpose and objectives more transparent, at least to the informed user....
