Abstract:

This article critically appraises business model challenges in implementing remote management functionalities. Remote management is believed to create new service opportunities and foster convergence between previously dissociated islands of end user devices. Conflicting business logics from disparate industries, however, run counter to this attempt at centralization. We introduce a generic business modeling methodology that aims to move beyond traditional ICT investment appraisal techniques by combining four critical dimensions of design. We develop four business model scenarios based on the

Abstract:

This article investigates the tools appraisal firms use to value privately-held businesses in Thailand. It also tests for covariation between selected descriptive variables and the techniques valuers employ to assist owners in deciding on their companies’ worth. A review of literature relating both to valuation and to strategic planning served as the basis for hypothesis development and questionnaire construction. All 81 approved Thai appraisal firms received the questionnaire. The main findings are that the number and kind of tools Thai appraisal firms employ vary widely. Furthermore, manager

Purpose This paper aims to test and compare two innovative methodologies (utility additive and evolutionary polynomial regression) for mass appraisal of residential properties. The aim is to deepen their characteristics, by exploring the potentialities and the operating limits.

Diversity of the population in a genetic algorithm plays an important role in impeding premature convergence.

The motivation of this algorithm is to maintain the population diversity throughout the search procedure. To promote diversity, the

The first domestications of plants and animals, which occurred between 10 K years and 5 K years BP, and which underpinned the inception of agricultural systems, represent a major turning point in cultural and environmental history.

One example of a new archaeological discovery is that of evidence for rice cultivation prior to 10 K years BP in the middle Yangtze Basin of China. This region is now considered to be the

Abstract:

Laryngeal electromyography is a valuable test to assess vocal cord paralysis in adults. This technique can be applied and adapted to the pediatric patient. In the operating room under general anesthesia and endoscopic guidance, bipolar hooked-wire electrodes are passed percutaneously through the anterior neck skin into both thyroarytenoid muscles. Electromyographic signals are evaluated during light anesthesia and on awakening. A critical appraisal of this technique is presented, including an analysis of sources of electrical interference in the operating room.

Abstract:

Introduction The successful transition of nurses from clinical practice to academia is essential to the training of a proficient future nursing workforce. However, deprived of requisite support and guidance, novice nurse educators often find the transition from bedside nursing practice to the classroom challenging and hence, adopt some coping strategies to facilitate their transition. Yet, little is known about the strategies adopted by Ghanaian novice nurse educators to facilitate their transition. Objective This study explored the strategies adopted by novice nurse educators to facilitate th

Abstract:

Abstract A simple procedure based on empirical Bayesian estimation concepts is presented as a means of reducing the error in timber sale appraisals. An estimator is developed that combines information from previous appraisals of similar sales with the estimate for the subject sale. Examples and guidelines for using the technique along with a description of the basis of the approach are also presented. North. J. Appl. For. 4:85-87, June 1987.
