Collecting facts and burden of proof in administrative procedure by Milkov Dragan L., Radošević Ratko S.

“…Following the principle of investigation, the burden of proof, as a burden of production of proof, is traditionally denied in administrative procedure. An effort is made to show that this strict view is not entirely acceptable and that it has to be questioned by considering the role of the party in the process of determining the facts. …”

Data model for the cartographic representation of toponyms on topographic maps published by the MGI by Marković Viktor

“…The significance of this aspect arises from the fact that maps, aside from representing a graphical depiction of geographical space, serve as a medium for conveying specific information and toponyms that must be presented. A significant effort has been directed towards developing a methodology for the standardization of toponyms on the maps of the Military Geographical Institute "General Stevan Bošković" (MGI), which meets the strict criteria of cartographic representation. …”

Game Theoretic Analysis of Carbon Emission Reduction and Sales Promotion in Dyadic Supply Chain in Presence of Consumers’ Low-Carbon Awareness by Liangjie Xia, Longfei He

“…We find the following. (1) In decentralized setting, the retailer will provide emission cutting allowance to the manufacturer only if their unit product profit margin is higher enough than the manufacturer’s, and the emission reduction level of per unit product is a monotonically increasing function with respect to the cost pooling proportion provided by the retailer; (2) the new side-payment contract can coordinate the dyadic supply chain successfully due to its integrating sales promotion effort and emission reduction input, which results in system pareto optimality under decentralized individual rationality but achieves a collective rationality effect in the centralized setting; (3) when without external force’s regulation, consumers’ low-carbon awareness is to enhance consumers’ utility and decrease profits of supply chain firms.…”
