Opportunities for Building Computer Information Systems in Municipalities Using Dynamic Document Management
Summary:
The article deals with the structural differences of the documents in municipal administrations of Bulgaria. These documents are official forms that contain specific facts and information specified by the law. In this sense, each municipal administration works with documents using its own structure described in existing state and municipal regulations. Under the structure of the document in the article we understand a list of attributes of a given document and its specific meaning in terms of this document. In terms of municipal documents, the structure of the different forms does not change during the calendar year, but in many cases this structure differs for each subsequent calendar year. Therefore, this article focuses on the use of software methodology for dynamic document management in databases of municipal computer information systems of the local administration of the Republic of Bulgaria. For this purpose we consider the use of five software methods – software method for defining documents, software method for presenting documents in the form of metadata, software method for saving documents presented as metadata, software method of storing documents in the form of metadata, software method for retrieving documents stored as metadata.

A Research on Demographic Changes within Bulgaria in Regard to European Trends
Summary:
The purpose of this study is a research on demographic trends in Bulgaria with a view to finding places which may disappear from Bulgaria’s map and formulating economic polices of the country. The study gives an account of the influence of a set of factors influencing ageing and depopulation processes. Three contribution points may be marked. Firstly, a database structure is defined, allowing the use of census data for other researchers. Secondly, a technology is developed for converting census data into the created database. Thirdly, the study provides an approach for implementing regional demographic analysis.

Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) in the Context of Agricultural Statistics
Summary:
The Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) is a partial representative survey for evaluating the income and economic activities of agricultural holdings in the European Union. The survey covers only holdings that are considered market-oriented or commercial and they form the field of observation. In this paper we present the methodological framework of the FADN survey with the emphasis on the basic definitions and main indicators describing the activities of the agricultural holdings. Further we clarify the criteria used for the stratification of the holdings, the sampling methods and the contents of the Farm Return questionnaire. More attention is focused on the specific application of the FADN in Bulgaria with statistical analysis of the main economic results of the agricultural holdings for the period 2004 – 2009.

Human Action, Part Four, Chapter XXIII. The Data of the Market
Summary:
Catallactics, the theory of the market economy, is not a system of theorems valid only under ideal and unrealizable conditions and applicable to reality merely with essential restrictions and modifications. All the theorems of catallactics are rigidly and without any exception valid for all phenomena of the market economy, provided the particular conditions which they presuppose are present. It is, for instance, a simple question of fact whether there is direct or indirect exchange. But where there is indirect exchange, all the general laws of the theory of indirect exchange are valid with regard to the acts of exchange and the media of exchange. As has been pointed out1, praxeological knowledge is precise or exact knowledge of reality. All references to the epistemological issues of the natural sciences and all analogies derived from comparing these two radically different realms of reality and cognition are misleading. There is, apart from formal logic, no such thing as a set of "methodological" rules applicable both to cognition by means of the category of causality and to that by means of the category of finality.
