The final goal of the Directive is the achievement of energy efficiency in buildings, with emphasis on design of building and building elements, heating and cooling systems and use of renewable energy sources. The presentation of energy performances of the building should be visible in energy label that will classify the building in comparison to energy consumption and must be submitted while buying, selling or renting the building. For the realization of energy certification of the building it is required to provide training for wide number of experts.

This study surveys experts in forestry and climate change from the Asia–Pacific region to gauge their perspectives on the impacts of climate change and on the challenges faced by forest adaptation in the region, and explores recommendations and initiatives for adapting forests to climate change. There was consensus regarding the impacts of climate change on forest ecosystems and on economic sectors such as agriculture and forestry. Respondents also indicated a lack of public awareness and policy and legislation as challenges to addressing climate change. However, the results indicate differences in opinion between regions on the negative impacts of climate change and in satisfaction with actions taken to address climate change,highlighting the need for locally specific policies and research. The study presents specific recommendations to address issues of most concern, based on subregion and professional affiliation throughout the Asia–Pacific region.The results can be used to improve policy and forest management throughout the region. This research will also provide valuable suggestions on how to apply research findings and management recommendations outside of the AP region. The conclusions should be communicated relative to the level of the research and the target audience,ensuring that scientific findings and management recommendations are effectively communicated to ensure successful implementation of forest adaptation strategies.展开更多

Therefore, discovering new options for treating these patients is a high priority.

Firstly, on the background of procurements in China, a multi-attribute pro- curement auction mechanism is presented, where technical and business experts participate in the bid evaluation. Then, the concept of TOPSIS is used to determine the positive and negative ideal points of the WDP according to bid prices, the technical and business experts' evaluation information. Further, the closeness coefficient of each bidder (candidate supplier) is obtained by calculating the distances to the positive and negative ideal points. Thus, the winning supplier can be determined according to the closeness coefficients. Finally, a numerical example is used to illustrate the use of the proposed method.展开更多

Financial experts have weakness to solve deficit problem in spite of understanding managing risk of financial and investing choices also can develop its tools. Researches found the reasons of financial experts' weakness, which are the ignorance of financial expert evaluation and role solving of negative social problems which came after losing trust in leaders. Recommendations concentrate on giving financial expert power and solving law ignorance problem by adjusting law to fight trickery. Law does not give the harmed the right to cancel contract when there is unfair price. It must collect unfair price with deceiving to get right. Rule must be confession of profit after studying assets and liabilities value in market prices. Deals in financial market should take care of financial analyses, human resources accounting, and value added of companies. Financial experts can achieve equilibrium between local producing and Jordanian international producing depending on suitable cost of producing to import and courage producing locally.展开更多
