Also king Antimena built a dam and dug a channel to bring water from Tiger river to his city In Iraq there are two rivers Ephirtis and Tiger which considered as avain of life for the country. the availability of water is the necessary condition for irrigation projects and evolve and develop many cities and human being. Iraq for the two past decades had seen bad conditions which affected the water sector, because of many environmental problem despite the availability of water Ofcourse this gave a push for the researcher to concentrate on this subject which has great effects on life of people of Iraq because its connection with securing food for people and other using . Therefore the research will discuss the recourse of pollution and find the solution for it, depending on a hypothesis which said “Despite the availability of Water resources in Iraq. But the Water sector suffered from pollution without putting into consideration how to get rid of it ” .
Abstract: The Integration between Responsibility Accounting and Activity(ABC) represent an important part of design and Developing of integrated information System in the organization the Integrated Cost Systems of Fer vital information to help management in performing many functions and making several kind of deci evaluating departmental performance. Promoting process efficiencies and measuring Cost of activities and products Cost Systems dotnat with Supply information That identifying in The best opportunities for improving programs and quickly detect unused. Capacity of the activities of the organization But the realization of this in titrated Cost System faces many difficulties arif from different Overall purposes and the scope of processing without Solving the difficulties the integrated Cost System will lead to. Erroneous decisions the objective of this research work. Is to Suggest some possible solution for difficulties fasting the developing integrated Cost Systems the main suggestion ist o segregate between the database and managerial application programs in the process of design and Developing of in targeted Information System .
Abstract: According to the importance of the application of the factorial experiments in agriculture and other disciplines, this study aims at analyze the unbalanced factorial experiment (a x b).This study presents the explanation of the manner for the calculation of sum of squares, and the analysis of variances for such experiments.A field experiment was conducted at the experimental field at the College of Agriculture/University of Baghdad, is designed to study the effect of Boron (B) and Sulfur (S) on number of ovules of Sunflower. This experiment was unbalanced. In conclusion, the use of harmonic mean was the best solution to analyze such experiment.
Abstract: Factor Analysis is considered statically ways which aim at study different Phenomenon to extract the important and effected factors through analyzing correlation coefficients between different cases study. Factor analysis is often used in data reduction to identify a small number of factors that explain most of the variance that is observed in a much larger number of manifest variables It also has also it has the feature summarizing the different variables and arranging it in a few linear components.In this research work we studied the principle affected factors on the Leukemia according to a set of special linear measures for each patient which participate to identification the disease and determine the treatment model.
