Full textAbstract:
Various management approaches have been proposed to maintain good organizational performance on a continuous basis, with corporate performance management (CPM) and business process management (BPM) being two major groups. While the conceptual connection between CPM and BPM might see obvious, their actual empirical connection with performance remains poorly understood. In this article, we address this gap and develop a theoretical model that explicates the causal paths from CPM via BPM toward organizational performance in terms of a set of hypotheses. Based on a survey, we find that the effect of CPM on organizational performance is largely mediated by CPM-BPM orchestration and process performance. With this study, we respond to recent calls for novel studies in this area and highlight the impact of well-orchestrated CPM and BPM initiatives on organizational performance.

Full textAbstract:
Appraisals are fundamental to the management of human resources since they affect the development of an employee, the organizational fairness, and the advancement in one’s career. However, performance appraisal systems tend to lack precision due to biases that adversely impact trust, fairness, accuracy, and objectivity. This thesis aims to analyze reasons for biases in performance appraisal and determine practical methods to improve objectivity using action-oriented thematic analysis. Following qualitative literature synthesis, three overarching themes were identified: biases associated with raters, alterations proposed to enhance structures and processes, and use of technology. Findings highlight biases such as halo bias, age, ethnicity and gender biases, and leniency bias are steeped in cultural and organizational deep cognitive frameworks. An increase in measurement precision is essential in overcoming biases using Z-ethically acceptable design, CPM systems, automated feedback BARS, AI, and analytics. It is emphasized that technological frameworks must be approached from the standpoint of fairness, devoid of historical inequity perpetuation. Ultimately, the argument presented in the text underscores the complexity of the intervention using systems approach combining governance by ethical machine systems with human retraining, organizational strategy redesign, and allegiance to bounding policies for structural fairness, openness, inclusion, and objectivity.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a capability maturity model (CMM) developed to implement continuous improvement in small and medium scale construction companies (SMSCC) in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach A multi-strategy approach involving qualitative studies of SMSCC in Nigeria was conducted. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with purposively selected construction experts in Nigeria to identify variables essential for continuous improvement in SMSCC. Data collected were thematically analysed using NVIVO. Subsequently, a system thinking approach is employed to design and develop the CMM for implementing continuous improvement SMSCC, by exploring possible relationships between the variables established. Findings CMM provided a five-level approach for the inclusion of investigated variables such as team performance; culture; structure; post-project reviews, financial risk management, waste management policy and cost control. These variables are factors leading to continuous improvement in SMSCC, implementable within a six to seven and a half years’ timeline. Practical implications The system thinking model revealed cogent archetypes in the form of reinforcing loops that can be applied in developing the performance of SMSCC. Continuous improvement is feasible. However, it takes time to implement. Further longitudinal studies on the cost of implementing continuous improvement through CMM a knowledge transfer project can be initiated. Originality/value A methodical strategy for enhancing the effectiveness and operations of SMSCC in developing countries can be extracted from the causal loop diagram and the CMM.

Purpose – This paper aims to examine the effect of customer knowledge management (CKM) on continuous innovation and firm performance in 35 private banks in Guilan (Iran). CKM emerges as an important and effective system for innovation capability and firm performance. However, the role of CKM in innovation and performance is not well understood. Design/methodology/approach – Data have been collected via questionnaires from managers of private banks in Guilan. Feedback was received from 265 managers in 350 distributed questionnaires, and hypotheses were tested using the structural equation modelling. Findings – The results of this paper indicate that knowledge from customers has a positive impact on both innovation speed and innovation quality as well as operational and financial performances. Also, our results demonstrate a different effect of knowledge about customer and knowledge for customers on various dimensions of innovation and firm performance. By using customer’s knowledge flows, firms will be aware of external environment and new changes in customers’ needs and so will be more innovative and perform better. Practical implications – CKM is known as an important system to connecting internal environment to external environment to create novel ideas. The results of this paper shed light on the consequences of CKM on firms and provide support for the importance of CKM to enhance innovation capacity and firm performance. Originality/value – This article is one of the first to find empirical support for the role of CKM within firms and its importance on innovation capability and firm performance. This study can provide valuable insights and guidance for researchers and managers as well.

Full textAbstract:
The incidence of diabetes is increasing in all age groups. The use of technological devices for the treatment of diabetes, such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), is expanding and is associated with improved control of blood glucose levels in order to prevent complications of this disease. Reducing glycemic variability and maintaining optimal glycemic control is critical to the management of patients with type 1 diabetes. The usefulness of glycemic monitoring devices has also been shown for patients with type 2 diabetes. CGM technology is constantly being improved in terms of analytical performance, biocompatibility, wear duration, safety and clinical performance. However, commonly used minimally invasive CGMs do not measure blood glucose directly, but instead measure the glucose concentration in the interstitial fluid (IF), so changes in IF glucose occur with a delay of 5 to 15 minutes compared to blood glucose. In addition, the lifetime of minimally invasive CGM sensors is relatively short, up to 14 days. Therefore, the introduction into clinical practice of devices for non-invasive glucose measurement in people with diabetes, which overcome the above-mentioned limitations of minimally invasive CGM, will expand the possibilities of glucose monitoring among patients with diabetes. The purpose of this review was to present the technologies of CGM system sensors approved for medical use in Russia and other countries.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Perioperative dysglycemia is associated with negative surgical outcomes, including increased risk of infections and longer hospital stays. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) provides real-time glucose data, potentially improving glycemic control during surgery. However, the performance of CGM in the intraoperative environment has not been well established. This scoping review aimed to evaluate the performance of CGM systems during the intraoperative period, focusing on their technical reliability, accuracy, adverse device effects, and efficacy. Inclusion criteria: Studies that assessed intraoperative CGM performance, focusing on technical reliability, accuracy, adverse effects, or efficacy, were included. No restrictions were placed on the study design, surgical type, participant demographics, or publication date. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library, covering publications up to 12 June 2024. Two independent reviewers screened and selected the studies for inclusion based on predefined eligibility criteria. Data extraction focused on the study characteristics, CGM performance, and outcomes. Results: Twenty-two studies were included, the majority of which were prospective cohort studies. CGM systems demonstrated a high technical reliability, with sensor survival rates above 80%. However, the accuracy varied, with some studies reporting mean or median absolute relative differences of over 15%. The adverse effects were minimal and mainly involved minor skin irritation. One randomized trial found no significant difference between CGM and point-of-care glucose monitoring for glycemic control. Conclusions: Although CGM has the potential to improve intraoperative glycemic management, its accuracy remains inconsistent. Future research should explore newer CGM technologies and assess their impact on surgical outcomes.

Full textAbstract:
Business Administration/Strategic Management<br>Ph.D.<br>This dissertation consists of three essays broadly centering on external changes and how organizations respond to these change by altering themselves. My investigations focus on knowledge transfer and innovation related firm responses with an emphasis on firms’ especially, Multinational Enterprises’ (MNEs) market strategies such as ownership, governance and location choices and their non-market strategies such as political networking and stakeholder management. I'm particularly interested in emerging countries and the changing institutional environment in those contexts. To study changes occurring in different speeds and varying firm responses to them, I have hand-collected longitudinal datasets for different industries and employed both qualitative and quantitative methodologies: my datasets covers both moderately-dynamic industries such as multinational construction and retailing and as well as more knowledge-intensive industries such as multinational pharmaceutical, electronics and computer & software industries. Chapter 1: MNE Legitimacy in the Eyes of the People: Insights from Libya about Surviving Association with an Overthrown Regime In the first chapter, I investigate how firms respond to changes that are less-anticipated and takes place in a rapid fashion. Differentiating between the learning that MNEs accumulate at the host-countries and related learning they transfer from similar locations, this paper is built upon and extend theories about how MNEs, cope with institutional voids and transitions in relation to their political connections, corporate social responsibility strategies and interactions with stakeholders in the emerging countries. In order to do so, I conducted an in-depth qualitative study on how different MNEs with different interaction levels to the Gaddafi Regime, society, tribes and the new government in Libya were affected by the Arab Spring. In this paper, using the Arab Spring as a natural experiment and employing Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) and Fuzzy-set methodology, we build new theory on how MNEs can survive and even thrive during times of fast institutional transitions. We introduce “the legitimacy of the government” as an alternative measure of host-country political environment assessment and suggest that MNEs that deepened, broadened and expanded their political connections and strategies to multiple political actors and complemented them with CSR related activities fare better major institutional changes at the host countries. In addition, the results suggest that host-country only specific learning can lock-in MNEs not to see the changing “tea leaves” if they don't complement it with their recent related experiences from their operations other countries. Chapter 2: The Effect of Different Post-Entry Experiences on Changing Market Entry Choices The second chapter focuses on post-entry operations of multinational retail firms that are required to offer a standardized service for an effective knowledge redeploying, but also need to recombine their HQ knowledge with the knowledge that the subsidiaries possess, to ensure adaptation to the local conditions at the same time. The change, now being the multiple uncertainties related with multinational retail chains’ internationalization into different locations, I first analyze how these firms decide on efficient firm boundaries and positioning after their entry into the host countries, and then investigate effects of these post-entry choices on their performance at the host-countries. Constructing a novel data-set of MNEs post-entry commitments in the host countries, my study reviews MNEs’ behavior after they have entered a foreign country and individually tracks their alteration of its ownership and retail format changes over time within that country starting from 1975 and until 2013. This paper provides a more process-based understanding of MNEs’ choices and strategies at the host countries, which extends the scant literature on mode-dynamics. The empirical results show that; MNEs are more likely to change their governance modes after the negative initial performance rather than after the positive initial performance, however, they tend to act completely in the reverse fashion for their decisions regarding changing their initial format choices at post-entry. I also show that the MNEs that change these initial market entry choices regardless of the initial performance have higher probability of survival at the host countries at post-entry, controlling for the dissimilarity between the home and the host countries and after taking into consideration of the possible selection effect of initial market entry decisions. Chapter 3: Differential Effects of Local, Foreign Firms and Supra-National Institutions on the Pace of Institutional Change in Developing Countries In the third chapter, I track changes in local innovation process and IP regime at the same time in the knowledge intensive patent areas such as pharmaceuticals, computer, software and electronics in developing countries. My focus is on Trade Related Intellectual Property Standards (TRIPS) agreement which was signed between developed and developing countries that made it compulsory in emerging countries the protection of product patents along with the process patents. Developing countries were given a 10-year allowance until January 1, 2005, in order to bring their patent system into line with TRIPS obligations as well as other flexibilities. Interestingly, while some of the developing countries such as India used these flexibilities and waited until the end of the 10-year allowance, some countries such as Brazil, Korea and Turkey ratified the TRIPS agreement and put the new regulations into action right away. We explain the variation in developing countries’ rate of TRIPS compliance by new institutionalism and co-evolutionary perspectives, by presenting a framework that shows effects of different actors within innovation systems on different trajectory and rates of institutional change. The results indicate that higher composition of local firms result in slower change of the IP Regime in developing countries, while higher the Advanced Country Multinationals, faster the change. I also find that supranational institutions such as IMF moderate this relationship.<br>Temple University--Theses

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses a new management approach - "Corporate Performance Management" (CPM). It sets forth the concept of this new approach as a business performance monitoring and strategic support tool, its assumptions, framework, components, relationship to business intelligence, and related methodologies. Particular focus is placed on "key performance indicators" (KPI), their characteristics, segmentation, methods for their selection, and implementation procedures. The theoretical part of this work is devoted to creating a methodology by which CPM can be effectively implemented on projects in the financial sector with an emphasis on the critical success factors of such a project as a whole. The primary elements of this methodology are the selection of the best possible metrics, the project's overall success and the development of efficient reporting. The practical part of this work initially introduces "Project KPI 2008", which ran in Komerční banka (Czech Commercial Bank), then pits it against the theoretical methodologies defined in the theoretical section. The entire project is then assessed based on the results of the comparison, and finally, conclusions and recommendations are made for the future of this project. The main asset of this thesis is its creation of the afore-mentioned management methodologies and the ideal, course to be taken in implementing a KPI-focused project. This work is valuable not only for investigating key performance indicators themselves, but also as an informative tool for managers who would like to acquaint themselves with or learn more about the CPM concepts in general.

Dans cette thèse, nous étudions la modulation par déplacement de fréquence à bande latérale unique (SSB-FSK), un schéma de modulation de phase continue (CPM) ayant, par essence, la caractéristique original du spectre à bande latérale unique (BLU). Tout d’abord, nous présentons l’origine du signal à partir de la physique quantique. Ensuite, nous proposons un détecteur de séquence à maximum de vraisemblance (MLSD) simplifié pour les schémas CPM conventionnels, basé sur le réarrangement montré dans le modèle de signal SSB-FSK. Pour exploiter pleinement les performances de la SSB-FSK, nous examinons la probabilité d’erreur du signal, l’occupation de la bande passante et la complexité du récepteur. Étant donné que différentes mesures de performance sont prises en compte, nous avons utilisé une optimisation multi-objectifs pour obtenir de nouveaux schémas SSB-FSK plus performants que les schémas CPM classiques. En outre, nous proposons une solution pour simplifier la complexité des signaux SSB-FSK en utilisant la décomposition de la modulation d’amplitude d’impulsion (PAM). Les impulsions PAM ont été obtenues à partir d’un algorithme que nous avons développé. En outre, nous proposons une séquence d’entraînement générique optimale pour l’estimation conjointe de la synchronisation des symboles, du décalage de fréquence et de la phase de la porteuse pour la synchronisation en mode burst. La séquence d’entraînement a été obtenue en utilisant les bornes de Cramér-Rao<br>In this PhD thesis, we investigate the single-sideband frequency shift keying (SSB-FSK), a continuous phase modulation (CPM) scheme having, by essence, the original feature of the single-sideband (SSB) spectrum. First, we present the origin of the signal from quantum physics. Then, we propose a simplified Maximum likelihood sequence detection (MLSD) detector for conventional CPM schemes based on the rearrangement shown in the SSB-FSK signal model. To fully exploit the SSB-FSK performance, we examine the signal error probability, bandwidth occupancy, and receiver complexity. Since different performance metrics are considered, we employed a multi-objective optimization to achieve new SSB-FSK schemes that outperform conventional CPM schemes. Moreover, we propose a solution to simplify the complexity of SSB-FSK signals using the pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) decomposition. The PAM pulses were achieved from an algorithm we developed. Furthermore, we offer an optimum generic training sequence for the joint estimation of symbol timing, frequency offset, and carrier phase for burst mode synchronization. The training sequence was obtained using the Cramér-Rao bounds

Full textAbstract:
Corporate Performance Management (CPM) is a broad concept focused on managing performance of companies and is related to information technologies like Business Intelligence (BI). CPM and its associated technologies are currently one of the most tracked areas in the field of business informatics. The reason is the growing market competition, globalization, the dynamic changes on the market and the growing need for companies to effectively manage their performance. The aim of the theoretical part of the thesis is to familiarize readers with this concept, with its components and link to business informatics. The work focuses on a specific area of CPM, which is monitoring and analysis, i.e. dashboarding. In the thesis there is analyzed monitoring and analytical functionality of the software Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server 2007 (PPS). Furthermore, there are identified dashboard and scorecard concepts and analyzed the characteristics and categorization of dashboards. There are various best-practices approaches to deployment of dashboarding into business. In the thesis there are mentioned some of these practices and basic rules for proper dashboard design. At the end of the theoretical part of the thesis there are evaluated the world's leading suppliers of CPM solutions. The aim of the practical part of the thesis is design and documentation of CPM dashboarding solution based on the real business data of the company that provides consulting services and develops BI software. The solution is designed in the PPS software and its purpose is to support the company's management in terms of monitoring the effectiveness of internal and external projects and business activities of the company. The solution is not a definitive CPM solution, but a step by the company to reveal possible weaknesses in the organization and encourage efforts to develop its own holistic CPM solution.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada<br>One of the charters of the Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) program was to develop more spectrally efficient waveforms while trying to maintain similar performance to the legacy waveform, Pulse Code Modulation/Frequency Modulation (PCM/FM). The first step toward this goal was the ARTM Tier I family of waveforms which include Feher patented, quadrature phase shift keying, -B version (FQSPKB) and shaped offset quadrature phase shift keying, Telemetry Group version (SOQPSK-TG). The final step was development of Tier II, an even more spectrally efficient waveform, multi-h Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM). This paper characterizes the performance of this waveform when applied in an airborne telemetry environment and, where appropriate, comparisons are made with existing Tier 0 and Tier I waveforms. The benefits, drawbacks, and trade-offs when applying this waveform in an airborne environment will also be discussed.

Full textAbstract:
This diploma thesis deals with the corporate performance management which represents a new direction in utilizing of data produced by Business Intelligence. An application of this approach in a telecommunications operator environment is a major contribution of this thesis. Theoretical principles of corporate performance management which capture, for instance, analysis of components, architecture, future development and current state of the market are described in the first two chapters. The third charter is an introductory part to the practical one because it deals with selected implementation methodology of corporate performance management. This thesis concentrates on two parts within the framework of this methodology -- analysis and proposal. While the fourth chapter characterizes the initial situation and a methodology of collecting of data, the fifth and sixth chapters create a core of this diploma thesis. The fifth chapter, which focuses on the analysis mentioned above, surveys a current state of the parts needed in order to propose CPM and where it is necessary the fifth chapter submits proposals of changes. The sixth chapter creates a complex proposal of CPM in a real environment based on the analysis of current situation in the company and from the proposals of changes. This proposal represents a summary of theoretical knowledge of corporate performance management and the current situation in the telecommunications company. The last seventh chapter makes recommendations which would contribute to the future implementation of the proposed corporate performance management.

Full textAbstract:
This work deals with the principles and methods of executing common managerial accounting tasks using Corporate Performance Management tools and technologies. The aim of the work is to analyze different practices, compare them and assess them against non-CPM solutions, especially ERP and spreadsheet solutions. The selection of tasks is based on a survey conducted among Czech companies and includes planning, budgeting, cost allocations and variance analysis. Conclusions are derived from the managerial accounting theory, fundamental works of Business Intelligence and personal experience gained through twelve CPM implementation projects. The conclusions are mostly platform-independent since functionality of several diverse CPM products is taken into account. The work highlights not only advantages but also restrictions of CPM tools and technologies. Many of the conclusions can be directly applied in practice. Work may be beneficial especially for business consultants and for companies considering the implementation of CPM.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Chickpea has a high yield potential, nutritional importance and diversity of use. A mutation breeding programme was undertaken at Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture (BINA) with a view to developing early-maturing, large-seeded and high-yielding varieties of chickpea. Seeds of the popular chickpea variety 'Desi Binasola-2' were treated with different doses of gamma-rays (200, 300 and 400 Gy). The treated seeds were grown in batches according to dose for raising the M<sub>1</sub> generation. M<sub>2</sub> seeds were collected from individual M<sub>1</sub> plants and subsequently grown in plant-progeny rows in the M<sub>2</sub> generation and selections were made from the M<sub>2</sub> families. Only 85 plants were selected from the M<sub>2</sub> population and these were grown in the M<sub>3</sub> generation. The mutant 'CPM-kabuli' and 28 other mutants were selected from M<sub>3</sub> and were grown in the M<sub>4</sub> generation. Only five mutants, including 'CPM-kabuli', were selected from M<sub>4</sub> and were grown in M<sub>5</sub>. The selected mutant 'CPM-kabuli' along with check varieties were put into preliminary yield trials. Finally, the mutant lines were evaluated, with respect to two check varieties, in advanced, zonal-yield, on-farm and on-station trials in successive generations. All the selected mutant lines were grown at different locations in Bangladesh to observe the yield and other characteristics. The performance of the mutants was evaluated under two management practices: research management and farmers' management. Contrary to its parent, 'CPM-kabuli' was found to be tolerant to root rot and Botrytis grey mould, and also showed greater tolerance to pod borer insect-pest infestation than other mutants and check varieties. The main improved attributes are a cream seed coat colour, which reflects kabuli type, larger seed size and higher seed yield. The mutant 'CPM-kabuli' matures in the range of 115-125 days and is high yielding (1.7 t/ha). Considering all these, the bold Kabuli type chickpea mutant 'CPM-kabuli' was registered as the variety 'Binasola-9' for commercial cultivation during 2017 and is suitable for farmers in drought-prone areas in Bangladesh.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract A comprehensive corrosion management review was conducted for a 38-inch diameter pipeline transporting dehydrated sour gas from Central Processing Facility (CPF) to downstream Gas Plant. The pipeline, which has been in service for more than ten (10) years, was constructed of bare carbon steel and equipped with a scraping facility and corrosion inhibitor injection skid that is operated by the CPF only during Tri-Ethylene Glycol (TEG) Dehydration Unit upset or off-spec conditions. After two (2) years of operations, an in-line inspection (ILI) was conducted which provided an early indication of internal corrosion that correlated with occasional process deviations and presence of solid debris in the pipeline. The study assessed the performance of existing corrosion mitigation measures and evaluated the need for continuous corrosion inhibitor injection. An enhanced corrosion mitigation plan was recommended to manage the corrosion risks during off-spec conditions.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract In the fourth Industry Revolution (IR 4.0) era, Oil & gas operators are encouraged to transform the way we execute work processes to enhance safety, increase efficiency, and reduce cost through digital transformation. Currently, the Corrosion Barrier Management (CBM) performance is tracked manually (e.g., updating spreadsheets, extensive repetitive tasks, etc.), and there was a need for a “live” solution to monitor the facilities CBM performance through dashboards continuously. Therefore, the objective of this project was to develop, deploy and maintain a data visualization tool for online CBM. The vision was to avail the CBM for the corrosion control, integrity, operation engineers, leadership teams and central engineering organizations to help reduce high-risk corrosion events and to enhance corrosion mitigation strategies to maintain corrosion rates under acceptable limits. CBM is challenging for existing and ageing facilities as different elements are within scattered platforms that must be prepared for full integration and digitalization. Isolated systems do not consider all aspects of CBM strategies which limits the overall understanding of CBM performance, preventing sound corrosion management decisions. The next evolution of the CBM is moving them from monitoring performance tools to proactive prediction tools to achieve zero asset integrity incidents. This paper discusses the development steps of the proposed CBM tool in detail.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract A high-capacity treatment plant filters, disinfects and de-oxygenates seawater to both control corrosion through a massive and aging pipeline network and to meet oil reservoir injection (water flooding) specifications. A Corrosion Management Program (CMP) was developed and implemented to address inter-related corrosion challenges of water quality and pipeline integrity management. The CMP provides decision support by seeking to estimate the cost of corrosion management for water treatment compared to the economics associated with risk and reliability. Using costs vs. benefits measures, as well as Key Performance Indicators (KPI's), the organization can monitor the CMP and ensure that it “holds water” in a safe, efficient and responsible manner. Legacy corrosion-related dispersed efforts included coating, cathodic protection and periodic inspection. The residuals of injected oxidizing and non-oxidizing biocides were monitored, and bacteria populations were enumerated. Moreover, corrosion coupons were in place in the pipeline network. The Corrosion Management Program was established to streamline these efforts in a comprehensive view. The CMP focused on communication and data management to monitor and report plant integrity windows and KPI dashboards. A more detailed corrosion assessment was mandated by the CMP. It revised the fluid sampling plan, reviewed laboratory practices and processes and specified online monitors of water treatment parameters. Moreover, the CMP outlined upgrading the corrosion coupon program and linking bacteria enumeration to biocide performance. These programs ensured relevant, representative, and reliable data is managed for technical analysis and communicated for management decision-making. Within water quality management, the CMP clarified the interdependence between disinfection, mechanical and chemical de-oxygenation processes and equipment performance. Furthermore, the CMP improved the disinfection process by both oxidizing and non-oxidizing biocides. The biocide treatment was revamped, with improvements to HSE impact, efficacy, equipment performance, and injection location and frequency philosophies. Within pipeline integrity management, the CMP encouraged transition to non-metallic piping and pipelines, with a strategy developed and major strides in implementation already underway. There remain challenges which the CMP emphasized to seek collaboration and develop solutions. The challenging link between water quality and pipeline integrity has been to prevent sand migration from filters and to subsequently clean the pipeline network. The network is composed of internally coated pipelines with a series of diameter reductions in the absence of launchers and receivers. The CMP encourages to explore scrapers which can clean these pipelines without damaging coating, as well as to perform In-Line Inspection (ILI) with accurate results. The CMP identifies corrosion challenges and explores the relation between them and the various operation functions. It has been designed for practical operation management actions. Each action is scoped to facilitate smooth implementation, clear tracking of performance and accounting for benefits against costs. The program also gives structure to develop technical talent and pursue solutions, including industry collaborations. This ensured that the CMP continues to evolve and always “holds water”.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The management of corrosion and integrity for offshore applications has become more critical as deepwater exploration and production continues. There are many challenges ahead, the most important being that the scope for error is greatly reduced. Repair, retrofit or replacement all become that much more difficult and costly due to logistics. The importance of correct execution first time is therefore vital, and one of the most important areas is that of suitable materials selection and corrosion management. This paper presents a new Risk Based Corrosion Integrity Management (RB-CIM) methodology comprising 10 discrete steps which when used diligently can provide the means to resolve the many threats encountered. In particular focusing on pertinent through life fitness-for-purpose, and important regulatory issues. The principles engage a multidisciplinary approach with a radical emphasis on design reappraisal, failure investigation, prioritized inspection and extended verification to address the demanding safety, environmental, and performance objectives. The scheme invokes a paradigm shift in thinking and is considered very relevant for both existing and new offshore deepwater developments.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Corrosion of submarine pipelines in the North Sea is the most common threat resulting in loss of containment (burst or pinhole leak). Industry experience shows that such failures are often due to a lack of sound corrosion monitoring systems. Such systems should be part of a total integrity management system consisting of a continuous integrity improvement process (threat identification, inspection planning, assessment and mitigation) with supporting management processes. Barriers are suggested to be any kind of measure put in place to prevent a hazardous event (preventive barriers) and any measure that breaks the chain of events to prevent or minimize consequence escalation should the hazardous event take place (reactive barriers). Such measures can be physical/technical and/or non-physical (human/operational/organisational). Barriers can be illustrated in a so-called bow-tie diagram. By applying the barrier concept in the integrity management context, key performance indicators (KPI) can be defined to help improve management and control of the threats with regard to corrosion.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACT Well integrity is becoming one of the most relevant issues in Oil & Gas industries, requiring the integration of multidisciplinary teams in areas of subsoil operation, corrosion engineering, maintenance, and production to define and apply the integrity management strategy. Until 2013, the reference in well integrity had been the NORSOK D010 standard, which describes the minimum requirements for operation and performance of the well integrity barriers in the whole life cycle of the asset. On the other hand, operating companies have generated better management practices that were consolidated in the ISO 16530 standard issued in 2017. It was promoted after the Macondo well tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico and became the mainstay of well integrity management. This work does a descriptive review of corrosion, materials, and risk papers within the well integrity management with two objectives. Firstly, to be a tool for the advancement of knowledge, dimensioning the barriers of the implementation of strategy, and describing some available gear. Secondly, to establish requirements for risk assessment and management with generic guidelines to allow the quantification of risk and mitigation actions, and so help the continuous improvement of the well integrity according to the conditions of design, construction and operation.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The continuous improvements in the Oil&Gas Industry to deal with reliability and maintainability objectives, higher operational reliability, improved safety, and emergency readiness for potential risk of unexpected events have led the Offshore Companies to be in the forefront of development of design and analysis methodology for integrity assessment and safety operation. The architecture of an integrated model targeting the major residual risks to the asset, new generations of internal and external inspection techniques, real-time monitoring sensors, material degradation prediction related to the actual and future operational conditions and machine learning methods are, as identified from the experiences of the authors, the new frontiers for the Pipeline Integrity Management. The advance in automation process to build pipeline digital twin, looking at new predictive and diagnosis tool by advanced FE models allows not only thinking defensively but also in taking an aggressive position toward safety and asset optimization. Plenty of attention was devoted to the 40 years of pipeline integrity assessment through which the engineering assessment takes advantage from inspection and operational data. Suite of services for an integrated solution including ad-hoc engineering and repair system readiness have been identified as the main pillars for best-in-class Operators. Case histories and integrated solution to ensure satisfactory performance and safety have been presented.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Scale deposition in oil and gas wells is a major issue in the oil and gas industry as it reduces hydrocarbon production, restricts well access to production logging tools and, in addition, causes safety issues due to blocking and ineffective operation of chokes and valves. Scale is predominantly controlled with chemical scale inhibitors and the most common methods to control scale deposition are through continuous injection and scale squeeze treatments although some non-chemical methods can be applied. The performance of continuous injection and scale squeeze treatments is traditionally monitored by the analysis of scaling ion and residual inhibitor concentrations (RSI) in collected produced water samples in conjunction with other parameters such as productivity index (PI) and temperatures and pressures throughout the whole production system. However, these methods are not always sufficient to identify the onset of scale formation and there can be some uncertainty as to whether the produced water is fully protected. It is therefore desirable to have an alternative to more conventional monitoring methods to assess the actual scaling regime of produced brine samples. This can be achieved by analyzing suspended bulk scale solids using Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (ESEM/EDX). ESEM bulk scale analysis can measure particle size, identify morphology and the chemical composition of any bulk scale produced. The method provides accurate statistics of the amount of the different types of scale, which can both be an early warning indicator as well as a key parameter for trending over time together with other relevant parameters such as scaling ions, RSI and PI. In addition, machine learning has been applied to images of representative scale particles to classify them as either transported (pre-formed)/modified by the selected scale control process or actively growing. The intelligent investigation of particle morphology provides a further understanding of the mechanisms of inhibition and enables a prediction of the % efficiency of scale inhibition. Therefore, ESEM bulk scale analysis offers a more direct approach to monitoring the scaling regime of produced brines and can identify if scale prevention is needed and indeed, whether any applied chemical or non-chemical treatments are effective. Specific field examples are provided in this paper where the technique was used to reduce chemical costs and improve the performance of scale squeeze treatments in terms of placement and longevity. This paper discusses how ESEM bulk scale analysis can improve scale management in a variety of production scenarios and demonstrates how the technique can provide a more direct monitoring tool enabling meaningful trend observations and better reactions and decisions to be made to reduce environmental impact factors and contribute towards net zero.

In Technology Enabled Civil Infrastructure Engineering & Management Conference. Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2025. https://doi.org/10.4028/p-d7gysb.
Full textAbstract:
Wind energy has been making its way into renewable energies until today, experiencing a continuous growth worlwide that leads to the urgent task of reflecting on and solving the issue of the recycling of the wind turbine blades. Their complex composition causes that currently there is no a widely acepted solution for it. This study evaluates the incorporation of waste from the crushing of wind turbine blades, which contains fibers, into self-compacting concrete, which can be used for producing any construction element. Therefore, five concrete mixes were made with different percentages of this waste, including a reference mix without this waste. The addition of waste increased the content of fibers in the concrete, which in turn implied an increase in the water/cement ratio. This situation led to a worsening of the mechanical performance of concrete as the waste amount increased, although it was partially compensated by the stitching effect of the fibers. The concrete mix with 1.5% in volume of this waste exhibited flexural and compressive strengths very similar to those of the reference concrete. This shows that incorporating the waste from the crushing of wind turbine blades can allow to produce structural self-compacting concrete.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the question of whether California's freight system is staying competitive with other US regions. A novel analytical framework compares supply chain performance metrics across multiple US states and regions for seaports, airports, highways, freight rail service, and distribution centers by combining the Performance Evaluation Matrix (PEM), Competitive Position Matrix (CPM), and Business Process Management (BPM) approaches. Analysis of industry data and responses from structured interviews with 30 freight industry experts across 5 transportation sectors suggests that California's freight system is competitive for seaports, airports, and freight rail; however, highways and distribution centers have room for improvement with respect to travel time reliability and operation costs, and California should prioritize infrastructure investments here. To stay competitive with the Texas and North East regions, state investments could also expand seaport container terminals and air cargo handling facilities, improve intermodal port connections and management of flows of chassis, container trucks, empty containers to ameliorate cargo backlogs and congestion on highways, at the ports, and at warehouses. The state could also invest in inland ports, transporting goods by rail directly from seaports to the Inland Empire or Central Valley.

Full textAbstract:
The State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP) is crucial for maintaining California’s 15,000-mile state highway system, which includes projects like pavement rehabilitation, bridge repair, safety enhancements, and traffic management systems. Administered by Caltrans, SHOPP aims to preserve highway efficiency and safety, supporting economic growth and public safety. This research aimed to develop robust cost-estimating models to improve budgeting and financial planning, aiding Caltrans, the California Transportation Commission (CTC), and the Legislature. The research team collected and refined comprehensive data from Caltrans project expenditures from 1983 to 2021, ensuring a high-quality dataset. Subject matter experts validated the data, enhancing its reliability. Two models were developed: a statistical model using exponential regression to account for non-linear cost growth, and an AI model employing neural networks to handle complex relationships in the data. Model performance was evaluated based on accuracy and reliability through repeated testing and validation. Key findings indicated that the new models significantly improved the precision of cost forecasts, reducing the variance between predicted and actual project costs. This advancement minimizes budget overruns and enhances resource allocation efficiency. Additionally, leveraging historical data with current market trends refined the models’ predictive power, boosting stakeholder confidence in project budgeting and financial planning. The study’s innovative approach, integrating machine learning and big data analytics, transforms traditional estimation practices and serves as a reference for other state highway programs. Continuous improvement and broader application of these models are recommended to further enhance cost estimation accuracy and support informed decision-making in transportation infrastructure management.

Full textAbstract:
Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) within the wall of line pipe is a threat recognized by the pipeline industry; the industry could benefit from a standardize approach to determining threat susceptibility as well as a methodology to estimate the anticipated growth rate of HIC given a set of pipe design, environmental conditions, and operational parameters. The overall objectives of this project were to compile historical literature and references toward understanding HIC as a cracking mechanism and to develop preliminary susceptibility criteria for the threat of HIC. A better understanding of the threat of HIC will reduce product leaks and equipment emissions from all parts of the hydrocarbon transport and storage infrastructure as well as better prepare for the quickly approaching hydrogen economy. A literature review on the current industry understanding of mid-wall HIC[1] was conducted. A summary of key factors influencing HIC and modern integrity management approaches for the phenomenon are summarized. Based on the literature review, gaps in published industry knowledge were identified. A literature review was also conducted on the performance of non-destructive examination (NDE) techniques (both in-line and field) and their ability to detect and size mid-wall HIC. A description of the techniques (considering liquid and gas mediums for in-line technologies) and the current understanding of their performance are summarized. Several case studies that were used to assess non-destructive inspection performance are also summarized. Based upon the current industry understanding of the mid-wall HIC mechanism, as well as the capabilities of NDE technologies, an integrity management framework was developed and is described. As a result of the literature reviews, case studies, and framework development, a number of gaps in industry knowledge and experience were identified. Most importantly, there is a need for continuous improvement of NDE technologies. Results of the gap analysis should be used to drive work to mitigate the onset of mid-wall HIC and to identify the presence of mid-wall cracking so that the threat can be actively and effectively managed. [1] The terms mid-wall cracking (MWC) and hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) are synonymous in this report.

The change in name, as of this edition, is intended to reflect in a broader way the issues that are addressed in the report. The 2022 edition includes several changes that are the result of a comparative study of financial infrastructure reports prepared by other central banks. These changes seek to make the report more fluid and easier to read, including main points and selected key figures for the different interest groups to which it is addressed. The report shows the financial infrastructure continued to render its services without interruption, with general evidence of good performance in 2021. Additionally, the resilience of the Central Counterparty Risk of Colombia (CRCC) and the Large-value Payments System (CUD) to extreme events was validated, based on stress tests conducted according to international standards (focused on liquidity and credit risk). As for retail payments, transactional information indicates the use of electronic instruments increased in terms of value during 2021 compared to 2020 (credit and debit cards, checks and electronic funds transfers). The use of debit and credit cards in payments rose to levels similar to those reached in the pre-pandemic year. Meanwhile, electronic funds transfers continued to grow. Although the results of the BR 2022 survey show cash continues to be the instrument most used by the public for regular payments (like the situation in other countries), the perception of its use decreased significantly to 75 % (87 % in 2019). Also, in commerce, cash was the preferred instrument for customers. However, in this measurement, several retail channels such as hairdressers, drugstores and restaurants joined the group that has traditionally received electronic payments for a value greater than 10% of their sales (hypermarkets and gas stations). Likewise, for nearly 50% of the population, cash payments are lower than before the pandemic. This is consistent with the transactional increase in electronic payment instruments that was observed in 2021. Banco de la República continues to monitor the technological developments that have expanded and modernized the supply in the international and local payments market, as these are issues of interest to the industry that provides clearing and settlement services. This report outlines the Pix case for instant payments in Brazil, the projects that are underway regarding the possible issue of digital currency by central banks (CBDC) for cross-border payments, as well as an approach to the Fintech ecosystem in Colombia, with an emphasis on companies that provide payment services. Leonardo Villar Governor Main points: 2022 The local financial infrastructure was safe and efficient throughout the year. The services of the financial infrastructure were proved on a continuous basis, showing good performance overall. Less momentum in the large-value payment system CUD activity declined versus the previous year because of fewer government deposits with BanRep. This was offset partially by growth in repos to increase money supply and in retail-value payments (electronic funds transfers, checks and cards). Increased momentum in financial market infrastructures. Larger amounts were cleared and settled through the Central Securities Depository (DCV) due to an increase in the market for sovereign debt. Operations managed by the Central Counterparty Risk of Colombia (CRCC) increased due to inclusion of the foreign exchange segment and the positive evolution in non-delivery forward peso/dollar contracts. Added confidence in the peso/dollar spot foreign exchange market due to CRCC interposition. Number and value of trades grew, mainly due to the adjustment of therisk management model for the FX segment and the increase in the limiton net selling positions in dollars. Stress testing with international standards to validate CRCC and CUD resilience Stress tests conducted independently by the SFC, BanRep and the CRCC, like those done in England and the United States, concluded that the CRCC's risk management model allows it to withstand extreme market events and simultaneous defaults by its main members. Based on the experience of other central banks, BanRep strengthened its intraday liquidity risk stress exercises in the CUD by incorporating temporary payment delays. It calculated that a two-hour delay by a key participant increases the system's liquidity needs by 0.5%. Electronic payments increased during 2021 According to transactional information, all electronic payment instruments increased in value versus 2020 (electronic funds transfers, checks and debit and credit cards). Electronic funds transfers continued to grow (80% from legal entities), with the participation of closed schemes driven particularly by the use of mobile wallets (35% of the number of intra-transfer transactions). The use of debit and credit cards for payments climbed to levels similar to those witnessed in the pre-pandemic year. Cash continues to be the instrument most used by the public for regular payments. The results of the BanRep survey in 2022 show that the perception of the use of cash declined significantly to 75% (87% in 2019), and about 50% of the population perceive their cash payments as being lower than those they made before the pandemic. Electronic funds transfers were second most used instrument, having increased to 15% (3% in 2019). Also, in commerce, cash was the preferred instrument of payment for its customers; however, several commerce channels received more than 10% of the value of their sales in electronic payments (hypermarkets 35%, gas stations 25%, hairdressers 15%, drugstores 14% and restaurants 12%). Continuous technological developments have broadened, and modernized services offered in the payments market. Pix (instant payments in Brazil). The high level of adoption of instant transfers in Brazil motivated a review of its strengths; namely, the possibility of different use cases between individuals, businesses, and government; high participation by financial and payment institutions; free of charge for individuals and the possibility of charging legal entities, and simple user experience. Digital currencies in central banking. Several groups of countries have joined forces to conduct pilot projects with wholesale CBDCs for cross-border payments. Flows generated by international trade, foreign investment and remittances between individuals can be processed more efficiently, transparently, and securely by reducing their cost and increasing their speed. Due to the constant progress being made on this issue, BanRep will continue to monitor all CBDC-related matters. The fintech ecosystem for payments in Colombia. A high percentage of existing FinTech companies in the country are dedicated to offering digital payment services: wallets, payment gateways, mobile devices (point-of-sale terminals) and acquisition. These have driven innovation in payment services.
