Comparative Analysis. Section VII is dedicated to present a comparative analysis of the proposed solution. Here, the proposed scheme is compared with the work done by ▇▇▇ et al. [51], ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [53], ▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [42] and ▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [54].

Comparative Analysis. Following receipt of responses (including oral presentations), and completion of evaluation of each eligible individual Quoter’s response, the Government may perform a comparative analysis (comparing Quoter responses to one another) to select the Quoter(s) that are best suited to fulfill the requirements, based on the Quoters’ responses to the factors outlined in this RFQ and their relative importance.

Comparative Analysis. In most chapters of this dissertation, I use a substantial amount of comparative material. Most of this is drawn from feminist ethnographies of women in contemporary societies in West and South Asia. I also use material evidence, including textiles, inscriptions, and funerary art, from the imperial and late Roman eras. While I name this section ‘Comparative Analysis’, I do not use the ethnographic and art historical material to show something similar to modesty in the Christian ascetic context but to provide new ways of thinking about and looking at the ancient Christian texts. Conventional advice to be modest is barely interesting. However, highly detailed ‘thick-description’ of the conflict in a young woman’s household over whether she can properly maintain modesty in a sari while also wearing a cardigan activates dull and 70 ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity (New York, London: Routledge, 1999). 173. lifeless advice to be properly covered in public.71 Suddenly, ‘properly covered’ is not self-evident. Ethnographic evidence, with its intimate detail and multiplicity of particular cases, is an analytical lens that opens generic norms for feminine behavior into a wide and even dangerous field of play. It vividly reminds the reader that the seemingly static ideal of modest womanhood is made up of daily battles, the push and pull of cloth, the bite of neighbors’ commentary. In addition, since ethnographic material tends to attend to the transitions between habitual activity and heightened social performances, it draws attention to the performance cues, or possible locations for them, in the ancient material. Another function of the ethnographic material is to further de-center a tacit understanding of person as Western, liberal person. To some extent we always draw analogies between our selves and our subjects when we do history. It is easy to assume that our subjects were the same sort of subjects we are, or think we are, or would like to be. Thus some ancient persons start to act and think a lot like British public school graduates and some like post-consciousness raising American feminists. Late ancient persons were certainly like us in some ways, unlike in more. The use of several different sorts of contemporary people as possible analogies for thinking about ancient Christians should make us more aware and critical of accidental assumptions of sameness or difference. It is useful to ask, along the way, if I have more i...

Comparative Analysis. A comparative case study of the four settlements – the Lower Pecos, the San ▇▇▇▇-Navajo, the Taos, and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ – revealed that although there are significant underlying differences, the agreements have surprising and significant commonalities. All four of the agreements are highly complex and address long-standing entrenched conflicts. They stem from water rights adjudication processes that have been ongoing for decades. The adjudications and associated settlement agreements involve thousands of diverse litigants and stakeholders with a wide variety of interests. Despite the fact that the four agreements were negotiated largely by local people in different basins with substantially different local characteristics and widely varying amounts of water, the overarching outcomes of the settlements are surprisingly similar. To provide some perspective, Table 2 lists some introductory statistics associated with each of the four case studies. Each of the case studies involves water rights adjudication litigation that was filed decades ago, is highly complex, and remains incomplete. All four involve settlement agreements that were signed within a few years of each other, although the length of time to negotiate each settlement varied widely. The basins vary greatly in size, population, and quantity of water involved. There are Native American lands in each of the basins, but only three of the settlements involve tribes. Correspondingly, although all four settlements require significant government funding, funding from federal sources is provided only for the three settlements involving tribes. Table 2.

Comparative Analysis. In the following lines a comparative between different programmes is done. As mentioned at the beginning of this section, in order to compare the programmes developed in this project with others implemented some years ago and well setted, two programmes have been taken into account: "Production technology and organisation Bachelor’s degree" from FH Joanneum and "Bachelor's Degree in Process and Product Innovation Engineering" at IMH. At the same time, in order to compare the most dualized possible Bachelor's programmes, from TUV only the “Naval Architecture and Marine Technology” programme will be taken into account. For comparative purposes, the following criteria were defined: (1) total number of ECTS of the programme (2) total nº. of ECTS corresponding to practical activities in the regular programme (3) total number of ECTS of the dual programme (4) total no. of ECTS/real hours corresponding to practical activities in the dual programme (5) timing of practical activities (semesters) (6) dual activities incorporated in the regular timetable or using holiday periods (7) selection criteria for practical training entity (8) contract/agreements (9) payment during practical trainings (10) quantity business partners

Comparative Analysis. The measure of impact our research is interested in is the change in population level health coverage. However, anticipated projections from the MoH was the only source of data we could obtain. Thus we wanted to test the validity of the projections by calculating our own estimates of population level coverage over time, and comparing our estimates to those proposed by the MoH. We used national documents of demographic and socio-economic indicators to estimate target populations and levels of health coverage within each target group. This exercise was applied to period of 2005 to 2011 and shows estimated trends in population coverage achieved by the different types of insurance schemes. Our intent was to establish whether the achieved coverage level within each scheme could be matched by its health financing contribution. To do this we created a table in which data on population coverage from the MOH was presented against our own estimates of coverage. For the sake of our analysis, we used the targets groups found across both sources of data and for which payer information on financial contribution could be found in the NHA dataset. While not considering the impact of new schemes may seem to underestimate overall population coverage, we focused on already well-implemented schemes in an attempt to test their impact. We suppose that the MoH data represents the “known” estimates we are trying to test against our “speculated” estimates. We conducted a sensitivity analysis on the “speculated” estimates to increase accuracy and provide upper and lower bounds. Lastly, we compared estimates of population coverage levels between the known and speculated numbers.

Comparative Analysis. Russia was the first country with whom the EU started a visa dialogue with the long term perspective of visa- free travel, but is not the only one. Most other VFAs also contain a reference to visa liberalisation, except the agreement with Cape Verde. For most of the Western Balkan countries, a visa-free regime is already in place and also with Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia concrete steps have been taken. The road toward the end-goal takes the same route for all these countries: all of the negotiations are centred around the same four blocks as we can find in the Common Steps. The start of the negotiations with the countries from the Western Balkan was made dependent on the fulfilment of technical reforms proposed by the Union, which took the form of a Roadmap. These lists of technical benchmarks were more or less the same for all the Western Balkan countries.
