铁路运输企业直管站段改革的管理学分析

从管理学角度在技术管理、组织管理、成本管理和安全管理4个方面对铁路局直管站段管理模式进行了分析,指出铁路改革的核心是政企分开,在铁路局直管站段体制中应进行分类管理、合理授权,注意妥善安置各类人员,要有效提高技术支持能力。     

发挥新体制的优势深化安全基础建设为全面深入推动铁路跨越式发展奠定坚实基础

2005年上半年铁路局直接管理站段新体制促进了安全管理的不断改进和加强，贯彻落实《铁路运输安全保护条例》的各项工作全面展开，六大干线提速安全标准线建设工程和第六次大面积提速调图准备工作顺利进行，现场安全控制和防范能力进一步增强。针对运输安全工作中存在的问题，提出下半年运输安全工作的总体要求，指出重点要抓好的工作是充分发挥新体制优势，不断规范和强化安全管理；深入贯彻《铁路运输安全保护条例》，加快运输安全管理的法制化进程；扎实推进各项安全重点工作。     

丰台西站提高自我管理能力的对策

分析铁路局直管站段体制对站段管理提出的新要求,结合丰台西站实际,确定总体工作思路,创建安全管理模式,将安全工作的着力点放在5个方面:落实干部逐级负责制;实施4级安全百日考核;细化干部的工作标准;严格职工的作业标准化;创建自控型班组,以不断提高站段的自我管理能力。     

铁路基层站段安全管理问题探讨

当前铁路基层站段安全管理存在的主要问题是安全意识淡薄、职工素质不高和干部作风不实。为切实加强基层站段的安全管理,提出明确安全责任、完善技术装备、提高职工素质,以及强化过程控制等措施,建立安全管理长效机制,确保铁路安全生产长治久安。     

运用模糊理论对站段安全生产进行评价分析

运用模糊评价分析法，对站段安全生产进行评价分析，使站段安全这个非常重要而又很难定量分析的问题，变得可以比较准确地进行定量分析，并找出各影响因素的影响程度，便于对站段安全生产进行有效的管理。     

构建铁路局直接管理站段新机制

分析了铁路局直接管理站段后的变化,阐述了站段的职能定位,运用管理理论,结合铁路实际,从生产管理、安全管理、资产管理、工资管理、成本管理、站段考核及专业管理与综合管理协调等方面,提出了构建管理新机制的建议和构想。     

提高认识加强管理不断强化站段收入工作

运输收入是铁路赖以生存的血脉，站段是运输收入产生的源泉。针对当前站段运输收入中出现的种种漏洞，找出了站段运输收入工作存在的问题，如站段收入管理人员力量不足；人员素质偏低；人员待遇偏低；人员没有专职定编等。对今后的收入工作提出有关改革建议。     

加强基层站段运输信息统计质量的监督和指导

站段信息处理中存在一些影响统计数据质量的问题，统计部门应加强管理和监督指导，力求基础数据和原始数据的正确，是提高统计质量的主要根源；数据维护要修改正确后方可投入使用。     

如何提高站段物资管理效益

加强铁路站段物资管理是提高铁路经济效益的重要方面，但站段具有站场大，物资品类多，无定额、供销渠道多，管理手段，落后等难点，这此必须制定统一的物资管理办法和采购制度，严把采购并，选好供货渠道，制定合理消耗定额，改善物资管理环境和手段，并加强对干部职工节支降耗的教育，才能改善站段物资管理的面貌。     

总结教训，从严管理 加强设备 保证安全

安全工作必须从基础抓起，抓住主要矛盾，还要强化安全规范管理，构建有效的安全质量保证体系；坚持抓小防大，从严管理；此外还要在设备投入上下功夫，不断提高设备质量。     

Tourism,changing architectural styles,and the production of place in Itacaré, Bahia,Brazil

This article examines changing architecture in Itacaré, Brazil, as it transitions from a fishing village to an international tourist destination. Tourism, as an assemblage of practices and perspectives, recreates places in specific ways that structure social and environmental relationships. Through an examination of historical architectural styles, tourist architecture, and popular architecture in Itacaré, this article analyses the ways a tourist economy has physically and socially rebuilt the city. Socially, the changing architecture marks and creates differences between class, racial, and regional identities while also providing an idiom through which public conversations about these changing economic systems and demographics are articulated. At the same time, the expansion of the city has led to racial-, regional-, and class-based segregation. Environmentally, tourist architecture creates new relationships to nature through re-imagining Itacaré’s position in relation to other rural and urban places and a new emphasis on the aesthetic value of nature.     

Reviewing the DATAS of aviation research data: Diversity,availability, tractability,applicability, and sources

The field of aviation research is entering the era of big data. While data-driven advancements in aviation have clearly brought about applicable models and results with immediate implications, we argue that the influx of aviation data should be better characterized and documented to enable more efficient and standardized usage. To this end, we examine 200 well-cited research articles from sub-disciplines ranging from revenue management to air traffic control published on or after 2010 in order to analyze the diversity, availability, tractability, applicability, and sources (DATAS) of data utilized in aviation research. We find high levels of data diversity within aviation research, with 16 data categories ranging from air traffic flow management-type data to data from distributed sensors in line with the Internet-of-Things (IoT) paradigm. We identified a dominance of proprietary, non-public data in aviation research, with 68% of the 200 research articles utilizing solely proprietary data in deriving their results, and a further 8% utilizing a mixture of proprietary and publicly available data. The pervasiveness of proprietary data has implications on reproducibility and extending research results. We also highlight the increasing tractability of the data by surveying the computational power required to process the data sets, and present vignettes of applications and results that stem from these data-driven studies. Finally, we propose several recommendations regarding standardizing data source nomenclature as well as increasing the availability of and usage of publicly available data.     

Travel,roads, risks and volunteers

International volunteers often travel to destinations (low- and middle-income countries) that carry a greater chance of being involved in a road-related injury and a possible fatality. Within this cultural exchange, tourists move from safe roads and cars to those that are potentially unsafe. Is this all part of the adventure of volunteering or should the tourist industry take some responsibility? This paper highlights the intersection between tourism and road injury and fatality risks (as pedestrians or in vehicles) with special attention to the longer term volunteer traveller. Social science theory underpins some of the discussions around risk and travel. A brief consideration of the international road traffic death and injury crisis and the emergence of the recognition that this impacts upon tourist safety is explored as backdrop to discussions. Tourism relies upon the ability for people to travel in and around the countries they travel to, often taking on the local travel arrangements prevalent in their destination. These local travel arrangements enable leisure tourists to explore their destination and volunteer travellers to live and work as locals. Is it time to consider and further the research on road risks as a growing feature of tourism?     

Reputation,search cost,and airfares

As cost of search for consumers decreases with the spread of the internet; researchers question whether this trend will lead to lower price or higher product differentiation. This paper examines a sample of offered fares to see if an airline choosing not to distribute its tickets via a channel where competitors' offers are directly observable may attempt taking advantage of potential customers. We find this to be the case. Our study suggests that the US airline industry appears to be evolving toward more product differentiation in the internet age.
