Management is considered as most important resource of the society ones in modern era and an exchange
point in societies’ lives in order to achieve its goals and wishes. So far, management behinds the new
electronic society has become different in shape and nature due to the force of the nature of information
technology that shapes the relationships between the world’s individuals at the national level but it goes
beyond the international ones. The study aims at identifying the impact of the electronic management’s
components upon the improvement of the quality of nursing care in Baghdad’s hospitals. The descriptive
design, with a sample-survey approach, is used as appropriate ones for the field study of social phenomena.
So, it presents data about these phenomena and the relations between their reasons, results and analysis to
depict the effective factors in them. The study uses a questionnaire for data collection from the respondents.
It is comprised of (31) items which are distributed on two parts; first, demographic characteristics (8) items
and second, electronic management’s components with a five levels Likert Scale of strongly disagree,
disagree, uncertain, agree, and strongly agree with a rating scale of 1 for strongly disagree, 2 for disagree, 3
for uncertain, 4 for agree, and 5 for strongly agree, respectively. Validity of the questionnaire is determined
through its administration to panel of (10) experts who are specialists to present their judgments about its
content validity. Reliability of the questionnaire is determined through the use reliability coefficients to
achieve its internal consistency. Data are collected through field visits to the hospitals and interviews with
subjects. The setting of the study includes all hospitals in Baghdad City which are (43) hospitals. These
hospitals are distributed on three health directorates as; (8) for Medical City Directorate, (13) for Al-Karkh
Health Directorate, and (22) for Al-Rusafa Health Directorate. The sample is consisted of (43) nurse manager
and (101) head nurse. It is purposive “non-probability” ones and it is selected with respect to the selection
criteria of number of years in nursing and number of years in nursing management for no less than one year.
Data of the study are analyzed through descriptive data analysis approach, cluster analysis and factor
analysis. The study reveals that variables that include age, gender, level of education, place of work, number
of years in nursing, number of years in nursing management, years of experience in electronic management
and the duration of each training session in nursing management have an impact in improving the quality of
nursing management. The findings indicate that electronic planning management plays more effective role in the
future of the electronic management and the quality of operating nursing care. So far, we provide sufficient
answers to all questions and hypotheses that the present study has presented. The study recommends that there
is necessity to prepare and implement specialized programs which are concerned in electronic management for
the preparation of managerial leaders in this field. Being relied on electronic learning curriculum in general and
specifically electronic management in nursing courses with respect to what have been accomplished in developed
nations’ universities. Nursing staff have to be encouraged for enrollment in educational and training sessions as
being relative to electronic management. Reporting, monitoring, evaluation and promotion for participants system
can be initiated. National comprehensive studies that depend on comparison and targeted large number of health
organizations in public and private sectors, and nursing staff for identification of barriers for the implementation
and presentation of the recommendations, solutions, and the appropriate approaches that develop technical,
managerial and leadership aspects. Concern can be presented with regard to training sessions in the field of
electronic management, especially that of electronic planning management.

This paper studied the behaviour of reinforced reactive powder concrete (RPC) two-way slabs under static load. The experimental program included testing three simply supported slabs of 1000 mm length, 1000 mm width, and 70 mm thickness. Tested specimens were of identical properties except their steel fibers volume ratio (0.5 %, 1 %, and 1.5 %). Static test results revealed that, increasing steel fibers volume ratio from 0.5% to 1% and from 1% to 1.5%, led to an increase in: first crack load by (32.2 % and 52.3 %), ultimate load by (36.1 % and 17.0 %), ultimate deflection by (33.6 % and 3.4 %), absorbed energy by (128 % and 20.2 %), and the ultimate strain by (1.1 % and 6.73 %). The stiffness and ductility of the specimens also increased. A

The effect of the indebtedness factor on the company's profitability and the real value of the ordinary shares calculated according to the (equivalent ascertainment) model and its suitability with the company's situation, and an analysis of the fluctuation between the market value and the real value of the ordinary stocks.
The dependence of the energy losses or the stopping power for the energies and the related penetrating factor are arrive by using a theoretical approximation models. in this work we reach a compatible agreement between our results and the corresponding experimental results.
The downhole flow profiles of the wells with single production tubes and mixed flow from more than one layer can be complicated, making it challenging to obtain the average pressure of each layer independently. Production log data can be used to monitor the impacts of pressure depletion over time and to determine average pressure with the use of Selective Inflow Performance (SIP). The SIP technique provides a method of determining the steady state of inflow relationship for each individual layer. The well flows at different stabilized surface rates, and for each rate, a production log is run throughout the producing interval to record both downhole flow rates and flowing pressure. PVT data can be used to convert measured in-situ r

In this work, the modified Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction is used to find a nonlinear Ritz approximation of Fredholm functional defined by the nonhomogeneous Camassa-Holm equation and Benjamin-Bona-Mahony. We introduced the modified Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction for nonhomogeneous problems when the dimension of the null space is equal to two. The nonlinear Ritz approximation for the nonhomogeneous Camassa-Holm equation has been found as a function of codimension twenty-four.
Many studies have recommended implying the skills and strategies of creative thinking, critical thinking, and reflective thinking in EFLT curriculum to overcome EFL teaching-learning process difficulties. It is really necessary to make EFL teachers aware of the importance of cultural thinking and have a high perception of its forces. Culture of thinking consists of eight cultural forces in every learning situation; it helps to shape the group's cultural dynamic. These forces are expectations, language, time, modeling, opportunities, routines, interactions, and environment. This study aims to investigate EFL student-teachers’ perceptions of cultural thinking. The participants are selected randomly from the fourth-stage students at

Iris recognition occupies an important rank among the biometric types of approaches as a result of its accuracy and efficiency. The aim of this paper is to suggest a developed system for iris identification based on the fusion of scale invariant feature transforms (SIFT) along with local binary patterns of features extraction. Several steps have been applied. Firstly, any image type was converted to grayscale. Secondly, localization of the iris was achieved using circular Hough transform. Thirdly, the normalization to convert the polar value to Cartesian using Daugman’s rubber sheet models, followed by histogram equalization to enhance the iris region. Finally, the features were extracted by utilizing the scale invariant feature

In this article, the backstepping control scheme is proposed to stabilize the fractional order Riccati matrix differential equation with retarded arguments in which the fractional derivative is presented using Caputo's definition of fractional derivative. The results are established using Mittag-Leffler stability. The fractional Lyapunov function is defined at each stage and the negativity of an overall fractional Lyapunov function is ensured by the proper selection of the control law. Numerical simulation has been used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme for stabilizing such type of Riccati matrix differential equations.

The influence of 5-10 kHz audio frequency on the power dissipation in ac discharge of argon gas was studied experimentally, at pressures 50-80 mTorr and electrodes separation 10 cm (pd range 0.5-0.8 Torr.
cm). The measurements have shown that the discharge behavior in the ac circuit is equivalent to a series RC circuit. It is observed that the variation curve of discharge power P with the frequency f is approximately has a Gaussian shape. It is also observed that the curve of Pm- pd is the inverse of Paschen curve, where Pm is the maximum power in the frequency range. The time of breakdown is estimated from the curve of P- f.
