Multicore system is processors and the high speed network adapter is very common in cloud computing. So it becomes more and more important to make full use of recourses such as CPU, memory and I/O devices. However, traditional system architecture just consider about CPU and memory, cannot meet the need...

This paper reviews the possibility of using the methods of formal logic in the professional judgements taken by accountants, and in accounting regulations as a special type of professional judgements made on behalf of the entire accounting community. It contemplates the possibility and the process of...

Accounting addressed to support the management has been developed in enterprises in Poland on a wider scale since the 1990s, i.e. since the restoration of the market-based economic system after a half-a-century break.
