Networking Historical Sources: A Demand-Side Driven Approach
نویسنده
چکیده
Many archives have introduced online archival databases in the past few years. However, apart from being independent of place and time, hardly any of these databases make finding records any easier than it was before. This paper suggests to put more emphasis on the needs and behavior of users and to provide them with the context in which records were created, thus making it possible to link archives in distributed locations and cultural heritage in other organizations as well as enabling users to learn archival search strategies and make better use of the databases provided.

Performance-Based Financing to Strengthen the Health System in Benin: Challenging the Mainstream Approach
Background Performance-based financing (PBF) is often proposed as a way to improve health system performance. In Benin, PBF was launched in 2012 through a World Bank-supported project. The Belgian Development Agency (BTC) followed suit through a health system strengthening (HSS) project. This paper analyses and draws lessons from the experience of BTC-supported PBF alternative approach – especi...

We undertook a sensitivity analysis of the key demand factors leading to changes of energy consumption in the competitive market, using a Leontief demand-driven approach. We applied the Leontief model to previous research results to study the most sensitive factors leading to the change of energy demand in different economic sectors. Based on the 2011 Iranian symmetrical input–output table, the...
متن کاملHead-Driven Simulation of Water Supply Networks
Up to now most of the existing water supply network analyses have been based on demand-driven simulation models. These models assume that nodal outflows are fixed and are always available. However, this method of simulation neglects the pressure-dependent nature of demand that is characterized by changes in actual nodal outflows particularly during critical events like major mechanical or hydra...

متن کاملPeer-to-peer aggregation for dynamic adjustments in power demand
Energy demand-side management becomes a well-established approach in the Smart Power Grid. Aggregation of consumption information is a critical operation performed by most demand-side energy management mechanisms as it provides information about the required adjustment of power demand. However, a centralized demand-side energy management approach controlled exclusively by utility companies is n...
