Published 2012“…iâ��SUF is one of Local Government of Surakartaâ��s policy which aim to alleviate the slums. It is managed by Badan Usaha Layanan Daerah Griya Layak Huni and the fund was supported by UN Habitatâ��s grant. This program is addressed to low income slum dwellers and provides two kinds of services, they are technical assistance and credit enhancement.  This research aims to analyze (1) the effectiveness of iâ��SUF program and (2) the factors that affects the effectiveness of iâ��SUF program. Effectivness is one of the criteria of evaluation to examine if a policy alternative could reach its goal. The goal for this program is to help people build their healthy and affordable habitat and access financial services, thereby improving their productivity and capacity to successfully manage their social and commercial endeavor.  This researchâ��s result shows that this program still encounters some constraints that hold up the effectivity of the implementation. Itâ��s shown in the small number of the coverage, where the ratio between the number of recipient is very small compared to the number of slum dwellers. The accessibility of this program is also still limited for the poors due to their limited ability in providing the requirements needed. Peopleâ��s participation in decisionâ��making process hasnâ��t been accomodated properly especially when the financial institutionâ��s services involved.The low effectiveness of this program is due to some affecting factors, they are: (1) Characteristic of the implementing organization, (2) Characteristis of program treatment, (3) Public perception, (4) Carrying Capacity Of Stakeholder It is recommended that BLUD GLH to work together with cooperatives as the financial institutions…”

Women in management : barriers to career progress
Published 2002“…Finally, a pragmatic approach to undertaking the study underpinned the dialogue between researcher and case study organisation as ways were explored for carrying out the investigation. While it cannot be assumed that the same barriers to progress for women managers found in the case study organisation exist for women managers in other organisations, the findings of this study have nevertheless highlighted issues beyond the borders of the organisation. …”

Quantum reconstruction, understanding, and information: on the insight provided by reconstructing quantum theory from information-theoretic principles
Published 2022“…In particular, I argue that we should not expect to gain interpretational insight into the inner workings of quantum theory by locating its boundaries in the context of more general theories, nor should we expect to learn what quantum theory is about or endow the principles with a particular metaphysical status, since the features and principles privileged through each reconstruction are, at least to some extent, dependent on what one chooses to focus on. In carrying out reconstructions, one has the freedom to choose principles that privilege, or abstract away from, particular entities or features of quantum theory, so that quantum theory can be reframed along the lines of one’s choosing.…”

Assessing methods to specify the target difference for a randomised controlled trial: DELTA (Difference ELicitation in TriAls) review.
Published 2014“…There were three interlinked components: (1) systematic review of methods for specifying a target difference for RCTs - a comprehensive search strategy involving an electronic literature search of biomedical and some non-biomedical databases and clinical trials textbooks was carried out; (2) identification of current trial practice using two surveys of triallists - members of the Society for Clinical Trials (SCT) were invited to complete an online survey and respondents were asked about their awareness and use of, and willingness to recommend, methods; one individual per triallist group [UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC)-registered Clinical Trials Units (CTUs), Medical Research Council (MRC) UK Hubs for Trials Methodology Research and National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) UK Research Design Services (RDS)] was invited to complete a survey; (3) production of a structured guidance document to aid the design of future trials - the draft guidance was developed utilising the results of the systematic review and surveys by the project steering and advisory groups. …”

Vegetation response to climate change: a functional traits-based approach
Published 2022“…A systematic review of 148 studies published between 2000-2017 was carried out. Results from this work present a suite of eight key traits that best predict positive plant responses: greater water-use efficiency (WUE), greater resprouting ability, lower relative growth rate, greater clonality/bud banks/below-ground storage, higher wood density, greater rooting depth, lower or higher specific leaf area (SLA) and lower or higher plant height (the latter two varying across biomes). …”
