Biomedical endeavours can be divided into three major categories: research, education, and testing. Within the context of each of these categories, activities involving whole animals have made major contributions and will continue to do so in the future. However, with technological developments in the areas of biotechnology and computers, new methods are already reducing the use of whole animals in certain areas. This article discusses the general issues of alternatives and then focuses on the development of new approaches to toxicity testing.

Application of new methods for managing large-scale integrated structures are considered as exemplified by the bank holding company. The factors urging the use of new approaches are highlighted. The author gives solid ground for options and prospects for development of conceptual approach, ensuring consistency of goals and enhancing integration of a holding company’s components.

Increasing of demand in the energy sphere and also unprecedented proliferation of environmental pollutants in the air has pushed human toward the using of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic systems. Unfortunately, despite all the efforts made, in the field of photovoltaic systems, still the usability of this clean and renewable source is skeptical in the world. This paper examines some basic problems of photovoltaic systems and discusses a few new approaches to reduce some problems of photovoltaic systems. The proposed approaches have capabilities and difficulties which are investigated in this study.

This chapter summarizes new approaches to the study of traditional dialects, in particular in Britain and the United States, and discusses how new methods, new results, and new topics of investigation may inform and enrich the study of World Englishes, too. Of particular importance may be the acknowledgement of widespread variability in the ‘homeland’ that is increasingly also historically attested and sociolinguistically described, the study of morphosyntactic variation as an area of language that seems to remain quite stable under settlement conditions, and the comparative study of present-day variability that indicates the breadth (and limits) of variability. In return, results from the comparative study of World Englishes also have the potential to enrich modern dialectology and sociolinguistics.

The limitations of conventional a.c. capacitance measuring techniques, for such measurements as MIS interface capacitance and measurements of large value electrolytics, has lead to a demand for new methods of capacitance measuring. This article reviews two new approaches which are presently being employed – the quadrature P.S.D. technique and time encoded ballistic techniques.

AbstractThis review paper intends to summarize the state of the art in loess research at the first international “Loess-fest’99” conference and to outline progress in loess research during the past decade. The focus is on loess as a terrestrial archive of climatic and environmental change during the Quaternary. The review highlights remarkable new results from regional investigations into European loess, as well as the emergence of new methods and refinements of established techniques, focussing on stratigraphy, dating and palaeoenvironment. It is concluded that loess research during the past decade not only has developed rapidly to take an outstanding place in Quaternary sciences, but also promises exciting perspectives for the next decade, in particular when combined approaches are applied to benefit from the now comprehensive pool of established and new methods.

Ruminants have always provided meat, hides and fibre for human use, and since the development of agriculture with its associated domestication of herding ruminants, they have also provided milk and draught power. Sound interpretation of the observations of animal behaviour and performance made by the early hunters and stockmen was not possible until knowledge of physiology began to accumulate in the 18th and 19th centuries. The development of new methods about 50 years ago led to the modern era of ruminant physiology, a flowering of research which has continued to the present day. Rumen physiology is intrinsically interesting but it also has utility because it is fundamental to the understanding of ruminant nutrition. Research must continue, particularly in the areas of microbial ecology and particle kinetics, if the ruminant industries are to respond adequately to the need to produce more food for humans from non-arable land and by-products, to increase product quality, to tailor products to market requirements and, in doing so, reduce their environmental impact
