- 8th International Conference of the European Society for Ecological Economics (ESEE 2009)
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jul 2, 2009,
University of Ljubljana Ljublijana, SloveniaThis conference offers the opportunity to engage into a critical evaluation of the present and future research agenda of Ecological Economics. Global environmental problems have risen to the top of the international political agenda and there is growing demand for analyses that help understanding inter-coupled social, technological and environmental systems and formulating urgent policy actions. The relevant systems are typically open, dynamic and often indeterminate in their behaviour. This introduces challenges concerning the quality of knowledge and the tools and methods suitable for understanding system changes. These problems are further compounded where governance interventions are framed differently under contending social values and interests and shaped by the exercise of cultural, political and economic power
Although it is generally accepted that natural and social systems are inter-coupled, both are mostly analyzed in terms of purely internal disciplinary models. Social systems are often studied in isolation from the surrounding environment, whereas for natural systems it is common that a large number of interconnections and variables is analysed, while the role of humans is described by a single actor model seeing people mainly as creators of disturbances. Ecological economics approaches to these challenges seek to overcome the theoretical and methodological barriers. This requires developing strategies for understanding and engaging with the complexity, interdependence and co-evolutionary dynamics of socio-ecological systems. - full details

- The Complete Guide to International Time & Voyage Charterparties (June 2009)
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jul 3, 2009,
Bonhill House London, England, United KingdomCurrent volatile economic and trade conditions are likely to lead to an increase in disputes and litigation arising out of charterparty agreements. Rapidly changing charter rates, for example, can lead to the withdrawal and termination of charterparties, with potential for huge consequential claims. In such times, a thorough understanding of charterparties is needed to ensure the best contractual terms are obtained and that they are operated to a maximum commercial advantage. A significant financial loss may be made through lack of understanding and mistakes in drafting.
The expert panel of speakers comprising of key industry representatives will provide delegates with the opportunity to gain detailed and practical knowledge. This seminar will cover both the contractual framework and practical application of these complex and detailed contracts.
These combined seminars will deliver a solid foundation in this important aspect of shipping practice and present an invaluable opportunity to develop and update existing knowledge. The combination of detailed presentations, interactive case studies and practical discussion sessions mean that these established seminars remain dynamic, stimulating and up to date. - full details

- SPE/AAPG/SEG Workshop: From Macro to Micro - The Description and Analysis of Tight Gas Sand Reservoirs
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jun 30, 2009,
The Brown Palace HotelDue to the unique challenges posed by tight gas sand reservoirs, considerable effort has been made during the past few years on developing new logging and core evaluation techniques. These have improved our ability to understand the petrophysical characteristics and rock physics of these complex reservoirs. Additionally, new and innovative geophysical techniques are being rapidly developed and deployed in an effort to better image and understand unconventional reservoirs. Even with the new advances in technology, due to the complexity of these reservoirs, results are often unexpected and unforeseen.
This workshop will take a multidisciplinary approach to better understand tight gas sand reservoirs and key challenges. - full details
- Upscaling of Fractured Carbonate Reservoirs: Best Practices and Workflows
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jul 1, 2009,
Diar Lemdinal Yasmine Hammamet TunisiaThe ATW is a follow-up from the forum in October 2008 on “Naturally Fractured Carbonate Reservoirs: Characterisation, Modelling, Simulation and Development.” A survey conducted during the forum identified the topic of “Upscaling of Fractured Carbonate Reservoirs” as one of the highest priority issues in building reliable reservoir models. Carbonates display a high degree of heterogeneity on all scales (pore, inter-well to seismic) and are pervasively fractured. Upscaling of fractured carbonate reservoirs is, therefore, a major challenge requiring robust workflows, to optimize decision making at all stages of field development. Consequently, the steering committee has tailored this ATW to address this important issue.

- Benchmark Six Sigma Lean Management Training In Delhi
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jun 30, 2009,
Hotel Radisson National High way - 8,Mahipalpur 1100005What is it?
The two-day Lean Management Certification is for people who are hands on practitioners in processes. Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt is not a pre-requisite.
Lean Management is about looking at the whole picture of all the processes that are required to deliver a product or service. One of the primary focuses of lean management is to eliminate waste; that is, anything that does not add value to the final product or service is reduced or eliminated. A second major focus is to empower people at lowest level, and make operational decisions at the lowest level possible.
Who should attend?
Benchmark Six Sigma Lean Management Certification (LMC) is for people (from manufacturing and service sectors) who wish to speed up their processes by removing wasteful steps and activities. LMC program provides concepts and techniques initially derived from Toyota Production Systems (but now customized and used in service sector as well as manufacturing.) LMC does not involve much statistics and therefore understanding is easier and participants can involve others (in their company) easily after training.
Why should you go for it?
Benchmark Six Sigma programs have unparalleled advantages. These include international recognition, world class trainers, advanced content, training techniques that bring concepts to life, project certification, opportunities for other related courses in Six Sigma, membership of an active and supportive online community.
About Us
Benchmark Six Sigma offers training and certification on Lean and Six Sigma, Consulting services on deployment of Lean and Six Sigma and organizes Business Excellence Conferences.

- 1st International Workshop on Problem-Oriented Development (POD 2009)
-
Jun 29, 2009 - Jun 30, 2009,
Swiss Federal Institute of Technolgy, ETH Zurich, SwitzerlandWelcome to the official website of the First International Workshop on Problem-Oriented Development. Here you will find all the details of POD-2009, as well as resources relating to Problem-Oriented Development generally.
Problem-Oriented Development is an emerging paradigm of computing that considers problems, rather than requirements, to be the primary subject of investigation for Software Engineers. POD therefore addresses questions such as:
* What is the general nature and structure of Software Engineering (SE) problems?
* How can we model and reason about SE problems?
* What tool support is required for effective problem analysis?
* What is the relationship between organisational problems, their solutions, and the organisation itself?
2009 will be an important year for Problem-Oriented Development. Not only is this the first workshop to explicitly address Problem-Oriented Development, but it also marks the start of a concerted and collaborative effort to lay down a sound scientific basis on which to proceed.
Several researchers have already started to address the challenges that Problem-Oriented Development raises. Work to date has addressed the need to provide an empirical basis for problem models, the need for knowledge reuse within problem analysis, and techniques for formally justifying the relationships between problems and their solutions. - full details
