Potential Solutions. One approach is a logical division into an archiving area and a cataloguing area (mediatec or media library). While digital originals or their equivalents are managed in the archiving area after careful digitisation — observing the recommendations of the IASA-TC 0430 wherever possible — the cataloguing area contains reorganised entities, derived from factual descriptions, so-called objects of the ‘segment’ type, e.g., a documentary. Corresponding media can be linked several times and in sections with the metadata, meaning that physical copies or copied sections can be avoided (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Media objects link physical carriers with a uniform timeline and thus allow simultaneous, consistent access to different codings and segments of the same content. People are then linked by semantic role (author, producer) to the segments (system: NOA mediARC). Media management should also hold content in several parallel formats so that restored cop- ies, digital originals, and working copies can be stored together. This means that the parallel, restored copy of archive material can then be made available in the catalogue if the quality of the original version renders it unsuitable for publication. Likewise, it is also necessary to create a filing structure for fragments of recordings, which cannot be digitised in a coherent manner. Should the need for a restored copy arise during cataloguing — or the quality control checks carried out when adding new content — the system should be able to control the relevant processes to achieve this. It is often possible to restore source material automatically with few qualitative faults; to this end, ‘official’ external modules should be pluggable so that it is always possible to work with state-of-the-art technology. By contrast, initiation and control of semi- automatic processes, which also incorporate external editing software, help ease the handling of more seriously damaged material. In order to provide timely access to sections of a catalogue object in the desired target for- mat, the cataloguing system should always include an additional working copy in a format that can be processed quickly and universally, if the original format does not allow this. The Open Archival Information System, known as OAIS31, makes the distinction here between the Dissemination Information Package (DIP), the output for the consumer, and the Archive Information Package (AIP), which constitutes a consistent, easily readable description of ...
Potential Solutions. Over the years, many research work has been done on solving the voltage stability problems related to the PV power fluctuations and voltage rise. First, the energy can be stored. This approach should be effective since the voltage instability addressed previously is caused by real power drop from the PV. Installing distribution static compensators (DSTATCOM) can also mitigate the voltage problem.

Potential Solutions. The issue of how a contract is amended can be addressed through a range of options, including, for example, the following: • Terms that allow amendment only by the signed, written agreement of both parties. Amendment only by mutual assent is the most preferred way of addressing some of the concerns associated with a payor’s unilateral right to amend the underlying agreement. Although this language addresses how an amendment can be implemented, it is also necessary to consider if failing to agree to the amendment has any other consequences. For example, does a provider’s refusal to agree to a proposed amendment constitute the provider’s notice to terminate the agreement? At a minimum, it is reasonable for a provider to insist that the contract require the payor to provide advance notice of an amendment, and to expressly state that the provider can terminate the agreement if the amendment is implemented. • Terms that allow the agreement to be amended by the payor upon a period of written notice, unless the provider raises an objection to the amendment. If the provider fails to object during that period, the amendment will be deemed to have been accepted by the provider. If the contract does not already provide for sufficient notice or termination rights, terms that allow a provider to object and “opt out” of an amendment are better than being bound to amendments without any recourse. It is important to ensure that the terms clearly express the parties’ intention that an “opt out” may occur. Such terms also make it imperative that providers monitor announced amendments and make timely objections. Finally, as noted above, the provider must also be cognizant of any implications from expressing its desire to reject or opt out of a proposed amendment (e.g., does such action constitutes the provider’s intent to terminate the agreement). • Terms that allow an agreement to be amended by the payor with advance notice, but any amendment that results in a material, adverse change to the terms may be objected to by the provider. If a payor insists upon a right to implement unilateral amendments, an alternative option is to seek the right to object to just those changes that are material and adverse to the provider. Using this approach, a payor is free to make unilateral amendments so long as they do not result in a material change to the terms of the agreement. Careful attention must be given to how “material” is defined in the agreement, and also whether the provider i...
