A framework for shelter location decisions by Ant Colony Optimization
Short paper presented at ISCRAM 2015, Kristiansand, Norway.
Abstract
Earthquakes frequently destroy the homes and livelihoods of thousands. One of the most important concerns after an earthquake is to find a safe shelter for the affected people. Because of large numbers of potential locations, the multitude of constraints (e.g. access to infrastructures; security); and the uncertainty prevailing (e.g., the number of places required) the identification of optimal shelter locations is a complex problem. Nevertheless, rapidly locating shelters and transferring the affected people to the nearest shelters are the high priority in crisis situations. In this paper, we develop a framework based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) to support decisions-makers in the response phase. Using the same framework, we also derive recommendations for urban planning in the preparedness phase. We demonstrate our method with a case focusing on the city of Kerman, in Iran.
Ch.7 america as a world power
The United States began asserting itself overseas in the late 1800s. It purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867 and annexed Hawaii in 1898. The US sought to increase trade with Japan and China but faced competition from European powers. In 1898, the Spanish-American War resulted in the US gaining control of Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. The US then took on the role of promoting stability and protecting its economic interests in Latin America through policies like the Roosevelt Corollary and dollar diplomacy. A key part of increasing American influence was the building of the Panama Canal in the early 1900s.
AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON ENGINE PERFORMANCE OF A LOW HEAT REJECTION (...
In Present Investigation at the first stage, experiments were conducted on baseline (Conventional) engine and hence combustion and emission Parameters were recorded. At second stage Mullite, which is a compound of SiO2 and Al2O3 with composition 3Al2O3.2SiO2 (Aluminium oxide 60% and Silicon dioxide 40%), was used as a (TBC) thermal barrier coating material. The piston crown, cylinder valves and cylinder head of diesel engine were coated with a 0.5 mm thickness of 3Al2O3.2SiO2 (mullite) over a 150-µm thickness of Nickel Chrome Aluminium Yttrium (NiCrAlY) bond coat using plasma spray technique to achieve less heat loss and combustion and emission Parameters were recorded for LHR engine.

Cold War - impact of world war two
World War 2 caused tensions between the USA and USSR that led to the Cold War:

- At Yalta and Potsdam conferences to plan post-war Europe, the US and USSR disagreed over issues like free elections and Soviet control of Poland, foreshadowing future conflict.
- As the war ended, the USSR took control of Eastern Europe while the US developed nuclear weapons without sharing the technology, violating agreements and straining relations further.

The document contains observations from a teacher trainee's journal of lessons taught during their practicum period.
1) The trainee observed that while the lessons aimed to follow a communicative approach, some activities like drills were more similar to an audiolingual method. Student reaction was generally positive but the trainee noted some ways to reduce anxiety and give more meaningful input.
2) Suggested improvements included giving students more opportunities to produce language themselves rather than relying on the teacher, and ensuring activities like listening have clear comprehension goals.
3) By the final lesson, the trainee recognized the value of focusing an entire unit on one topic like directions, rather than introducing new topics each lesson. Overall
Global Finance
This document provides a summary of Mexico's 1994 currency crisis known as the "Tequila Crisis". It discusses Mexico's economic reforms in the 1980s that initially stabilized the peso but led to large current account deficits. Political unrest in 1994 and a US interest rate hike caused capital flight, depleting reserves and forcing Mexico to devalue the peso. This sparked a recession and widespread loan defaults. The government implemented programs like FOBAPROA to bail out banks and guarantee deposits, receiving IMF support. However, significant fraud was uncovered in the banking system as well.

FCPA Week 6
1. The document discusses the purpose of books and records under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) to provide transparency in bookkeeping and prevent hidden payments for illicit purposes. It notes enforcement is held to a higher standard for the Department of Justice.
2. Alternative resolutions to prosecution like Non-Prosecution Agreements and Deferred Prosecution Agreements are used in 90% of FCPA cases but lack independent legal review. There is no burden of proof required.
3. To reconcile legal authority, companies should follow accounting laws, conduct internal audits, train employees on compliance, and oversee international entities. True reform requires subjecting cases to judicial review and consequences rather than private agreements
FCPA Week 1
This document discusses the history and evolution of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). It describes how congressional hearings in the 1970s uncovered corrupt foreign payments being made by some U.S. companies to gain business advantages. This prompted the passage of the FCPA in 1977 to criminalize bribery of foreign officials. However, the original law had deficiencies and complex issues that led to amendments strengthening it over the decades, such as raising standards of proof and expanding its reach. There continues to be debate around enforcement approaches, with some arguing for criminal penalties on individuals instead of just fines on companies.

Equity Stake Offering for Expansion Needs
Gonzales Food Stores seeks to raise $10 million for expansion through equity financing while retaining company control. They are considering either private stock sales or bonds. Private stock sales would give investors ownership stakes but require giving up some control. Bonds require repaying debt which may not be feasible given the company's high debt-to-equity ratio of 50%. The company is considering offering preferred stock, which provides tax benefits to institutional investors, or classified common stock with different voting rights. Founders shares that vest over time could incentivize long-term commitment from new investors or employees. The optimal approach may be a mix of callable preferred stock and founders shares.

Formulas are provided to calculate the present value of bonds based on interest rates, as well as determining stock prices based on average prices and desired rate of return.
Launching an IPO from foreign country
Jagdambay Exports, an Indian children's clothing company, is considering launching an IPO to finance expansion into the US market. A Regulation A IPO on the NASDAQ Capital Market would allow Jagdambay to raise up to $5 million with fewer listing requirements than the major exchanges.

The Wells Fargo Scandal
The document discusses the Wells Fargo account scandal where employees fraudulently opened accounts without customer consent or knowledge. Unrealistic sales goals set by management led employees to open fake accounts to meet quotas. Over 5,300 employees were fired for their role in the fraud. Wells Fargo was fined $185 million and top executives forfeited bonuses totaling over $69 million. The scandal damaged trust in the company and showed the need to avoid toxic corporate cultures with unrealistic goals that incentivize fraudulent behavior.
