The application of SBR in the treatment and nutrient recovery of sludge from the ISF can be a potential technical alternative to current technologies in the management of sludge. The objective of this study was to evaluate the removal efficiencies and recovery performance of nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus (P) in sludge from the intensive whiteleg shrimp ponds under different sequences of react periods (aerobic/ anoxic).

This paper examines the relationship between the ownership structure and the technical efficiency of Vietnamese commercial banks. The evaluation of the bank's technical efficiency allows research to rank and compare the effectiveness of each bank in the selected samples of both high and low efficiency bank groups in order to formulate and recommend specific policies for improvement.

This study examines the relationship between bank efficiency and earnings management (EM) using a large sample of banks from 22 frontier market countries from 2011 - 2018, We hypothesise that EM via loan loss provision (LLP) and loan loss reserves (LLR) adversely impacts bank efficiency. Employing stochastic frontier analysis as a technical efficiency measurement, and random effects and truncated regression to reveal their relationship, we find support for this prediction. Also, in three of the five geographic regions tested, efficiency scores are higher for larger banks.

Efficiency analysis of bus transit at the route level is critical to understand the existing performance of individual routes within a bus system and identify operational problems as well as effectively optimise their performance. This article applies the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model to examine the performance of 38 bus routes in Hanoi, Vietnam. The results indicated the best and the inefficient bus routes within the given sample and identified the internal sources of inefficiency, including: number of stops and vehicles.

The estimation of quantity and efficiency of the biogas collection systems was made; therefore, concentration and flow monitoring in the chimneys became necessary. Finally, two alternatives for biogas use were evaluated, such as the generation of electricity and its use as direct fuel, from a technical, economic and environmental point of view. The alternative selected was its use in internal combustion engines.

In recent years, a profound transformation has been observed in the eating habits of the populations of African cities, induced by accelerated socioeconomic and demographic growth. In Senegal, these changes have manifested in the proliferation of collective informal catering enterprises, such as the ‘dibiteries’, where the roasted meat of sheep is prepared and sold. The rise of the average household income has contributed substantially to increasing levels of meat consumption, leading to the expansion of the dibiteries.

There has been a growing gap between the demand for maize and its supply. One of the reasons often attributed to decline in maize productivity is poor production practices, awareness and characterized by low use of modern inputs. In order to avoid the lack of all the above to assess the current levels of technical efficiency of maize cultivation like spacing of Maize cultivation with effective management of irrigation practices could be taken as a study.

he Kenyan financial institutions structure has changed for the last two decades. The commercial banks have undergone incredible development. The study attempts to investigate technical efficiency of Kenyan commercial banks during 2004-2013 by using a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The results suggests that the degree of technical efficiency was found to be lower which indicates that the inefficiency is due to producing at an inefficient scale level rather than producing below the production frontier.

Measurement and analysis of banking efficiency has received increasing attention in recent years due to the rapid globalization of the financial industry and increasing competitiveness in inter-national financial markets. Banks are the dominant financial institutions in Albania and their health is important to the general economy. In addition, the economical growth is closely related to the well-being of the banking sector.

This descriptive-evaluative study was undertaken in order to evaluate the current condition of the Co pig population in Nghe An province, Vietnam in terms of size, structure and effective size. It was conducted from September, 2011 to January, 2012. Based on its current population structure, the Co pig can be classified as a rare breed and even though the effective population size is less than 500. Most of the Co pig raisers are smallholders with insufficient capital and inadequate technical knowledge to expand their operation and the production efficiency.

A natural approach to implementing such systems is to use an existing query-based data collection system for sen- sor networks. Through queries, a user can ask for the data he or she is interested in without concern for the technical details of how that data will be retrieved or processed. A number of research projects, including Cougar [31], Di- rected Diffusion [12], and TinyDB [19,20] have advocated a query-based interface to sensornets, and several imple- mentations of query systems have been built and deployed.

Under GHI, the U.S. is striving to coordinate all of its health programming, but integration is not being pursued for the sake of integration alone. We are working towards “smart integration,” which means selecting those opportunities for integration that make sense technically, economically, and in the context in which they are to be implemented. Through GHI, we are working with our partners to monitor and evaluate whether integration at the community level, facility level, and elsewhere in the health system improves efficiencies and service quality for both the user and the sys- tem.
