It constructs and manages pro perty on a massive scale. In 1989, the housing authority makes the decision that by 1993, its construction project management arm, and all construction companies working for the Housing Authority would be certified to the ISO 9000 standard. This decision is to have a profound and lasting impact on the construction industry in Hong Kong. In 1996, a management enhancement programme is launched. Targeting all 15 000 staff in the housing department, the programme aims at changing the culture of the organization and its partners in delivering high calibre services to customers. This paper examines the motivation and reasons behind the initiatives. It outlines the approach and framework used as the authority changes the mindset of a large department of the civil service.展开更多

The role of food safety has developed significantly in the last 2 decades, so today the production and processing of safe and quality food is of primary importance. Modem food production is based on principles of GAP and GMP （including GHP） and different methods and tools for quality control and assurance （IFS, HACCP, ISO-9000, ISO-9000/2010, ISO-22000, TQM）. There are different techniques and methods to produce safe food and to control the quality of the foodstuffs. The modem, up-to-date technologies and measurement techniques involve the application of many physical methods - high pressure, pulsing electrical field, microwave, non-destructive techniques （e.g., INAA, NMR, NIR-NIT, PAS）, radiation treatments as well. Using radiation technologies （of course not only nuclear ones） it is possible to fulfil some very important expectations of modem food processing, e.g., decrease of microbial contamination, improvement of sensory properties, increase of storability of food products.展开更多

Firstly, the data of the users＇ keystroke feature information that has too much deviation with the mean deviation is filtered out. Secondly, the probability of each input key is calculated and 10 values which do not have the best features are selected. Thirdly, they are weighed and a score evaluating the extent to which the user could be authenticated successfully is calculated. The benefit of using a third-party data set is more objective and comparable. At last,展开更多

The system allows acquisition on tri-phases plus neutral lines picking up 499 samples per period of the fundamental at 50 Hz. To ensure certified measurements, the system gets external certified time and voltage references. The system uses a FTDI Virtual Com Port Driver to communicate data over High Speed RS232 virtual interface and it does not need any advanced programming skill. The choice to use a virtual serial communication makes the data acquisition software portable over many platforms, regardless by the development environment and by the programming language. To test the proposed device some custom software have been written in many programming language （C^#, VB6, LabView, MatLab）, moreover in order to characterize the device the most common ADC （analog to digital converter） performing test have been applied.展开更多

In this scheme, the fingerprint image of the map owner can be converted into a character string as the watermark, and then the watermark will be embedded into the coordinate descriptions of the attribute file by the "0-bit value" programming method. This programming algorithm ensures that the accuracy is lossless and the graphics is unchanged for any vector map. Experiments show that the presented hiding scheme has stable robustness, the average similarity rate is 97.2% for fingerprints matching and the false non-match rate is 1.38% in the blocking test. In the opening test, the former reaches 84.46% and the latter reaches 5.56%.展开更多
