GHANA ELECTION 2000

Ghana achieved a victory for democracy on 7 January 2001 when Kufuor, the presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), was inaugurated as its president. For Kufuor, this was the end of a ‘political wilderness’ that lasted 29 years. His victory was celebrated with a nationwide sense of relief and joy. Almost 100 days after the government assumed power, it still enjoys massive support from the people and a new tolerance level that is unique in competitive Ghanaian politics. This article highlights areas of concern where the new government must tread carefully, particularly in respect of issues dealing with the military and the need for security sector reform to enable the military to accept civilian control. The discussion on foreign policy demonstrates the need for a more nuanced approach to the concept of ‘good neighbourliness’, situated within a clear differentiation between party and national interests. The economy has to improve and offer benefits to the public if such tolerance is to be sustained. The election results showed a need for consensus and coalition-building in parliament to consolidate this important victory.     

minimax问题的广义共轭向量法

本文按照共轭向量法的理论,针对非奇异对称矩阵提出了广义共轭向量的概念,并论述了它的三个重要性质(线性独立性、可寻驻点和可扩展性)。在此基础上,构造了极小极大(minimax)问题的广义共轭向量法。理论分析表明,该算法具有二次终止性质,且在每一维搜索时具有确定的寻优特征(求极小或求极大)。该算法为用拉格朗日乘子法求解数学规划提供了一个可能的途径。计算实例表明该算法是有效的。

OPTIMAL FACILITY LOCATION UNDER RANDOM DEMAND WITH GENERAL COST STRUCTURE

This paper investigates the problem of determining the optimal location of plants, and their respective production and distribution levels, in order to meet demand at a finite number of centers. The possible locations of plants are restricted to a finite set of sites, and the demands are allowed to be random. The cost structure of operating a plant is dependent on its location and is assumed to be a piecewise linear function of the production level, though not necessarily concave or convex. The paper is organized in three parts. In the first part, a branch and bound procedure for the general piecewise linear cost problem is presented, assuming that the demand is known. In the second part, a solution procedure is presented for the case when the demand is random, assuming a linear cost of production. Finally, in the third part, a solution procedure is presented for the general problem utilizing the results of the earlier parts. Certain extensions, such as capacity expansion or reduction at existing plants, and geopolitical configuration constraints can be easily incorporated within this framework.

GJB 5292-2004《引信电磁辐射危害试验方法》内容分析

一、标准制定的背景 随着电子技术、微电子技术等高新技术在军事领域里的广泛应用,现代战争已成为海、陆、空、天、电磁五位一体的联合作战体系。在电磁环境能量的作用下,可能导致系统中的电子元器件失效或使电爆装置的误动作。现代雷达、通讯、导航等辐射体的辐射功率越来越大,装备数量也日益骤增,使战场的电磁环境日趋复杂,加之自然界的雷电、静电等电磁源,使战场空间的电磁环境变得更加恶劣。早在上个世纪 70 年代,美国就在战术导弹系统及坦克系统中开展了电磁环境效应研究,到 80 年代,形成了比较完整的电磁环境效应标准。9 0 年代,电子…

标准的先进性与可操作性——WJ/Z 429-2004《反坦克导弹武器系统精度分配导则》编制体会

在标准的编制中处理好标准技术的先进性与可操作性是至关重要的,如果不顾及我国企业的现实情况,片面地强调技术先进,标准将难于贯彻,标准失去了制定的价值;同样照搬企业现行技术,缺乏技术升华,也失去了制定标准的意义。本文结合WJ／Z429—2004《反坦克导弹武器系统精度分配导则》编制工作介绍了这方面的工作体会。
