FrameNet is a lexical semantic resource based on the linguistic theory of frame semantics. A number of framenet development strategies have been reported previously and all of them involve exploration of corpora and a fair amount of manual work. Desp
ite previous efforts, there does not exist a well-thought-out automatic/semi-automatic methodology for frame construction. In this paper we propose a data-driven methodology for identification and semi-automatic construction of frames. As a proof of concept, we report on our initial attempts to build a wider-scale framenet for the legal domain (LawFN) using the proposed methodology. The constructed frames are stored in a lexical database and together with the annotated example sentences they have been made available through a web interface.

This research aims to propose the requirements that needed for developing the cadastral regulation and management in Lattakia's rural municipalities, in order to support sustainable land development, and protect the cadastral properties, as a fundame
ntal step towards a cadastral system development. We conducted an analytical study in some rural municipalities (Mashqieta) and at the cadastral directorate. It included the master plan, building control regulation, subdivision projects. The strengths of the current cadastral regulation have been identified: its reliability, the existence of master plans, and building control regulation in all the municipalities. Weaknesses were also identified in terms of: master plan that did not take into account the boundaries of the properties, the land topography, the criteria weakness of selection the organizational segments, the building control regulation, and weakness of the cadastral and regulatory legislation. Many requirements have been proposed for developing the cadastral regulation in rural municipalities, such as: legal, technical, institutional, and other requirements related to functions, jobs, experiences and qualifications.
With increased attention to regional and spatial planning in the world and the need to pay
attention to modern spatial development methods, increased thinking for necessity urban
networks as a mechanism for achieving spatial development in small an
d medium-sized
cities, operating alone, has been enhanced by changing the spatial structure of the
Territory, raising qualitative and quantitative use, To collect the assets and resources of the
cities of the Region that accept participation in potential opportunities and risks.
The analytical study was implemented by proposing an urban network in the Greater
Damascus Region that examines the nodes and links, and uses the SWOT system to
examine opportunities and possibilities, its relationship to the problems and determinants
of selecting the best scenario for the proposed urban network examines the effect of
applying the urban network concept on changing the spatial structure of the Greater
Damascus Region, and propose a workable mechanism at the spatial-sectorial level.
The research concludes with a set of conclusions and recommendations that determine the
importance of the networking of cities according to their location, which is capable of
adapting to the changes taking place in our Syrian cities. In the absence of a future vision
for regional development that is appropriate to the current situation, taking into account the
economic, social and spatial changes taking place; and which hinder the achievement of
the proposed national framework for regional planning in 2010.
This paper is an analytical study of tourism plans of China’s Hainan Province and the Syrian coastal region before the Syrian war commenced in 2011. It compares the two types of tourism (in the Mediterranean and the Asia Pacific) and concludes with a
n integrated model of successful regional tourism. The focus is on strategic plans of the last two decades and how they facilitate tourism, specifically, how strategic plans can be translated into sustainable tourism development projects in both regions. The strategic plan in the Chinese case considers environmental, economic, institutional, and social characteristics of tourism development, which determines the necessary infrastructure and environment for the further development of tourism. This is contrasted with the absence of such a strategy in the case of Syria. Data were drawn from in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. Qualitative research techniques were used to analyze the available data and to form a detailed description of the past, present, and future potential for tourism in the two regions. The study measures transportation, land use/land cover patterns, tourism and tourism development, urban development, and strategic plans. It applied the lessons learned from Chinese tourism innovations in Hainan to propose an executive plan for sustainable tourism development in the Syrian coastal region once the present war has ended. This requires the active participation of all relevant stakeholders from almost every domain despite differing interests. It further requires improving the integration of three separate developmental factors (social, environmental, and economic) as complementary rather than conflicting elements.
Keywords; Syrian coastal region, Syria, Hainan province, China, strategic plans, development, policy, planning.
This study aimed at identifying Mechanisms of Human Capital Development in Tishreen University, and its role in reconstruction of Syria. In addition, the extent Tishreen University applied these mechanisms and the strategic objectives identified in t
he Higher Education Plan. The researcher gave a questionnaire to 335 people, they are members of the Teaching Staff in Tishreen University, the main result of the study was that the universities follow to these mechanisms will contribute in Reconstruction. We have provided a summary of the main result that have found out is that Tishreen University did not apply mechanisms of Human Capital Development and the strategic objectives as required, and there is no interest in scientific research, absence of research plans and weak budget, and a dire need to contract with scientific data and research engines.
In this study, we present a state-of-art model; we call SYRIA, to simulate the activity of ventricular myocardial cell as an example of simulating a human cell, in which we use the latest mathematical models of cardiac cell. We rely on O'Hara (O'Hara
, et al., 2011) for modeling electrical activity, ions hemostasis, and contracting. Our presented model takes into consideration the role of potassium channels KATP, chloride channels, volume regulation channels based on the Kyoto model (A.Takeuchi, 2006), PH regulation channels based on Leem model (Leem, et al., 1999), and the improvement of the values of some variables based on the results of modern experiments, especially concentrations of ions within the mitochondrial and cytoplasm, the values of calcium buffers in the SR, values of the conductance of membrane channels, and concentrations of metabolites in the mitochondria. The previous models have been linked to a mitochondrial model based on Kembro (Kembro, et al., 2013). The SYRIA model is based on the integration and improvement of the best known models in a hierarchical structure that facilitates understanding, monitoring and reuse, we also present models for testing drugs and some external influences. The programming process is done using blocks of M-file and S-function in Simulink.
By comparing the results obtained from the simulation with the laboratory results, we observe that computer simulations give results within the normal physiological range

Economic literature has shown the important and prominent role of financial
development in economic development and growth, through the effective pooling and
allocation of national savings towards investments in support of economic development.
He
nce, it is highly important to look for the real determinants of financial development.
This study investigates the determinants of the financial development of Syria, Lebanon
and Jordan for the period between 1995 and 2014, by applying the method of Ordinary
Least Squares (OLS), to a set of determinants adopted in previous studies. The study found
a statistically significant effect of only three of the nine determinants tested on the level of
private credit by depository institutions (financial sector activity). It also concludes a
statistically significant effect of only five determinants on the level of Liquid Liabilities
(financial sector size). The determinants are: inflation, bank concentration, rule of law,
control of corruption, contract enforcement and improving supervision of banks. Reforms
that contribute in reducing corruption, enforcing contracts, improving the rule of law,
improving supervision on banks, reducing the level of inflation and the level of bank
concentration, are the most important factors that we need to focus on in the long run, to
achieve financial development (size and activity).This in turn contributes to real economic
development in Syria, Lebanon and Jordan.
