What is management in Russian? This is the syntactic subordination of one word to another, consisting in the fact that one word requires an addition after itself in a certain case. Most often, we understand in which case the dependent word should be used. For example, in the sentence “I work as a secretary,” it would never occur to anyone to replace the instrumental case in which the word “secretary” appears, say, with a prepositional case: “I work about the secretary.” It is obvious. But the choice of management is not always simple.
Along with the possibility of using various normative options (for example, you can say “consider it an error” and “consider it an error”), there are also very controversial situations. How to correctly write (say): upon completion or upon completion of work; control over something or something; Do I miss you or miss you? In such cases, intuition does not always help. Therefore, to help you, we have prepared a table in which we tried to include the most difficult moments in choosing word controls.
When compiling the table, management dictionaries in Russian were partially used, information from the Gramota.Ru portal was partially used, as well as our own resources. The table does not include words that have many various options controls, colloquial forms (except as noted) and words that do not cause difficulties in control. We also did not include such concepts as “control”, “good” and “monument”, which we will discuss separately.
So, “control”: how to correctly combine this word with others and with what prepositions to use it? Control can be over what, over whom/what or what - depending on the words being controlled. 1. For what and over what (with verbal nouns, i.e. formed from verbs). Control over (over) the implementation of assigned tasks(execution - from the verb “to perform”). 2. For what (with nouns denoting action, sign). Monitoring the work of subordinates(action). Work quality control(sign). 3. Over whom/what (with abstract nouns and with animate nouns). Control over development(abstract noun) .
Control over workers(animate noun).4. What (in official and vocational speech). Control over the activities of the executive branch. Control of manufactured products.
Let us also answer the question, which is correct: upon completion of the work or upon completion of the work?
Right: upon completion. With the prepositional case, the preposition “by” is used in the meaning “after something”: upon completion (after completion), upon expiration (after expiration), upon completion (after completion), upon presentation of a document (after presentation), upon arrival (after arrival), upon arrival (after arrival), upon return (after return), upon arrival (after arrival), etc.
WITH dative case the preposition “by” is used to indicate the surface or limits where something happens. For example: walk along the road, put books in their places, hit the ball.

Hello. Please explain in which cases the preposition “as a result” is used, and in which cases a noun with the preposition “according to results” is used. Thank you for your help.
Pretext as a result means "as a result of something, because of something." Basic meaning of a noun result -“what is received at the completion of any activity, work; result”, therefore the combination according to the results means "as a result". You can say: suffered as a result of negligence(i.e. due to negligence), but one cannot say * suffered as a result of negligence. You can say: the consequences of this decision will be judged by the results of the first half of the year, but you cannot say: * The consequences of this decision will be judged in the first half of the year. However, in some cases these designs can be interchangeable.

When it comes to time, That "during". When about essence - "during". Accordingly, when it comes to time after something then "in conclusion". When about essence(parts) - "at the end".
At the core of the question: if we are talking about parts of the procedure, then most likely "at the end".
“At the beginning of the novel, Dubrovsky goes to his estate, in the main part he falls in love, and at the end he throws himself under a train.”. Those. a novel has a beginning, a main part, and an ending, and the ending contains something like that. We are talking about the essence (part of the novel).
“To conclude my report, I would like to thank the conference organizers for their excellent work”. Those. after the report, when it is already over, he thanks the organizers. It's about time.
P.S. I ask you not to find fault with the plot of the mentioned novel. I wrote the first thing that came to mind.
I remember best another analogue - the word "flow".
"There is something fascinating about the flow of a river". The river flows, and this act of flow is mesmerizing.
"There's something fascinating about the year". The year (time) flows (passes), and this act of flow is fascinating.
"The boat got caught in an undercurrent". A current is a separate entity (or a process taken as an entity) in the sea.
"The project was completed within a year". The year does not flow by itself! Here "during" means "during".
