In order to have successful technical analysis athletics uses modern biomechanical methods, and the obtained results are subjected to numerous analyzes. On the basis of the results of biomechanical parameters the most successful motor structure techniques of a competitor can be planned, programmed and analyzed, and based on this information projections for the top model in a given discipline can be made. Also based on these data possible gender differences between the jumpers can be analyzed, in order to possibly establish model and numerical values for both male and female population of jumpers. The survey was conducted on a sample of male and female finalists of the World Athletics Championships in Berlin in 2009 with the aim of determining the difference in the kinematic parameters that are important in achieving the score success. The sample included 16 athletes (8 female and 8 male), who participated in the finals World Championship. Using T-test module were obtained the results which established statistically significant differences between male and female athletes in eight (72%) of the analyzed kinematic parameters in favor of male jumpers. The differences were identified in the following kinematic parameters: running speed on the section run (11-6m; T=8,347) and (6-1m, T=8,031), the speed of the second step (VLCT2SB, T=8,678), the first step (VLCT1SB, T=11,463) and the horizontal speed of the rebound (HoVLCT, T=4,627) to the level of significance (p<0,001).Also were identified differences in the parameters of the length of the third step (LNGT3SB, T=2,840), the first step (LNGT1SB, T=2,270) and vertical speed of the rebound (VoVLCT, T=2,246) to the level of significance (p<0,05). Kinematic parameters (28%) of the second step length (LNGT2SB), the duration of phase contact (CONTACT) and the angle of reflection (ANGLE) have not recorded statistically significant differences between male and female finalists, which amounts to 28%.

Recent studies show that seniors will soon become one of the major prospective segments in hospitality and travel industry. Given that population aged 65+ is usually retired with pensions, they have leisure time for travelling at any time of the year. They are also the most demanding expecting services excellence and high-level security while at the same time 63% of seniors aged 65-74 reported some sort of chronic illness. Hence, energy-efficient and health-focused facilities can be a significant potential for tourism development in Sarajevo region, which is a popular destination considering its unique nature, rich gastronomic, cultural and historical heritage. However, currently there is no market segmentation tailored to specific needs of senior tourists and research aims to explore opportunities for this type of services with the objective of introducing accommodation facilities for elderly based on eco-smart solutions with highlighted focus on well-being and health. Setting of still water machines and installation of renewable energy system for electricity, ventilation and heat can have various positive effects increasing security, providing more healthy conditions, influencing life expectancy and counteracting the aging. Methodology includes feasibility study of eco-smart and health-oriented facility for seniors while practical implications for future actions are given in the conclusion.

The EU member states are expected to achieve an increase in recycling and preparing for the re-use of municipal waste to 70% by the year 2030, in recycling and preparing for the re-use of packaging waste to 80% by 2030, etc. This explains the government's necessity for a tool that will set the goals to be achieved as its starting point and enable a retrospective approach in developing measures to achieve these goals. This is significantly different from the forecasting approach. This paper aims to demonstrate the potential use of combination of the two methods for decision making for selection of the best scenario for achieving solid waste goals: the backcasting method and the specific multi-criteria decision aid method, in the process of development and ranking of scenarios for solid waste management and more specifically in recycling options, tested on a pilot case in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

During the semiconductor evaluation of modern Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) devices, high quality Zero-Insertion-Force (ZIF) sockets must be used in order to measure many semiconductor parts with a single dedicated hardware. The most critical part of socket is contact between the device terminal and PCB. There are couples of technology processes that can provide solid contact between the device and the rest of the circuit, but the most common technology uses so called Pogo-pin, also called spring pin. Pogo pin must have as small as possible parasitic impedance, since the signal frequency and the signal power transfer between the PMIC terminal and the rest of the circuit must be without distortions, in order to obtain correct measurement results of tested devices. In some cases, influence of Pogo-pin parasitic impedance can lead to the partial damage of the device internal structure. This article should point to the potential problems using simulation results and should describe the simple procedure of Pogo-pin impedance characterization using network analyzer with appropriate aperture. Couples of measurements results from different Pogo-pin suppliers are also shown in this example with some practical results.

Investment is one of the most important generators for growth and development of national economies. In case of B&H there is a great need for domestic as well as international investments. Therefore, it is necessary to improve, in the first place, the legal environment including ease of company registration, unification of rules at the state level, simplification of administrative procedures etc. It could attract more domestic and international investors to invest in important projects and to improve overall economical situation in B&H. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to meet the essential requirement for successful implementation of various reforms related to macroeconomic stability, financial and technological infrastructure, openness to international trade and transparency of political and legislative environment. The Reform Agenda for Bosnia and Herzegovina was adopted in 2015 and provides, among other things, the creation of conditions and appropriate environment for increase of investments and modernization of the B&H economy, with the aim of economic growth and creation of new jobs. It also assumes strengthening the rule of law, administrative capabilities and increase efficiency in public institutions at all levels of government. In order to contribute to enforcement of this document and to present current advantages and obstacles for investments in Bosnia and Herzegovina, this paper analyzed the provisions of applicable laws relating to foreign investments and economic indicators as a consequence of such legal framework and current position of B&H. Research findings indicate that the implementation of the abovementioned structural reforms is a condition sine qua non for increase of foreign direct investments in Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as for its path towards integration with the European Union.
