The Kowloon Walled City had the Neighborhood Welfare Association serving as the bridge for communication with the British Hong Kong government, which then also provided basic support and services for sanitation.

When the Ordinance was enacted it was widely assumed that Chinese women would prefer confidential conciliation to a public hearing.

This study attempts to explore local politicians’ perceptions towards the ICAC in post-1997 Hong Kong.

Nonovercast skies, including clear and partly cloudy days, are essential because they may occur more frequently for places such as in equatorial regions and the tropics.

Molecular crowding electrolyte was proposed to improve the stability of water at a low concentration of Li salt (2 m LiTFSI )1. Low-cost and safe poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG, Mn=400) is adopted as a crowding agent to confine water molecules through hydrogen bonding and strengthen the covalent bond of H-O (H2O), leading to effective suppression of water decomposition (especially HER). However, the mechanism behind the improved cathodic stability of molecular crowding electrolyte is not yet fully understood.

AbstractHow are the European Union and its individual member states positioning themselves within the intensifying trade war and power struggles between Washington and Beijing? Does the fact that both the United States and the EU have recently updated their strategic approach to China and continuously underline their democratic regime patterns and support for like-minded systems—contrasted with Beijing as a perceived promoter of an illiberal world order—imply a return of “Cold War” system antagonism? Could this also result in a reemergence of strategic triangles? Shedding light on Washington’s

Abstract:

This study examines the effects of incentive plans on the quantity and quality of creative production. We examine a serial publishing platform that switched from a uniform commission (UC) plan to a quantity-based commission (QBC) plan offering a bonus commission rate when writers’ production meets a preset threshold. Our analysis reveals that, for a given book, chapters published in the months when writers reached the preset threshold quantity, and thus earned bonus commission rates, exhibited higher quality, as measured by the chapter-to-chapter customer retention rate. Such a positive correl

Abstract:

Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) can support human pickers in warehouse picking operations by reducing picker walking distance and increasing the warehouse’s throughput. AMR-assisted order picking is becoming popular as it can be conveniently implemented in conventional warehouses. This study proposes an integrated optimization model for scheduling the operations in AMR-assisted picker-to-parts warehouse systems. The model aims to minimize the makespan of all picking operations for a batch of orders by assigning batched orders to AMRs, selecting storage racks for AMRs and pickers to visit, and

In terms of chemical composition, emodin (EM) and 2,3,5,4′-tetrahydroxystilben-2-O-β-D-glucoside (THSG) were identified as chemical markers of Fallopia multiflora Thunb. This study was conducted to develop a preparing process that helps to minimize the THSG content while increasing the ratio between EM and THSG. The HPLC-DAD method was used to quantify these substances in the raw materials and samples after each processing stage to investigate the effects of the different processing conditions. It

Abstract:

Although prior research has primarily focused on the direct value of information technology (IT) and IT adoption by individuals and firms, this study explores the indirect value of IT in the form of public infrastructure technology. By exploiting a spatial discontinuity in water monitoring stations, we discover that firms located immediately upstream of water monitoring stations exhibit significantly lower levels of corruption than firms located immediately downstream. These findings are particularly noteworthy given that water monitoring stations have the potential to generate significant ind

This paper studies the cost of capital effect of a major regulatory technology, or RegTech, event: the staggered implementation of the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (EDGAR) system of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the period from 1993 to 1996. This event represents a largely exogenous shock to corporate information dissemination technologies, resulting in a considerable reduction in information acquisition costs for investors. Using a difference-in-differences research design, we show that the cost of equity capital declines substantially after a firm switches f

Abstract:

We explore a novel on-demand delivery mode based on cooperation between trucks and drones. A fleet of trucks, each of which carries several drones, travels along a closed-loop route, and the drones are launched from the trucks to pick up (or deliver) ordered parcels from their origin (or to their destination). The fulfillment of an order (i.e., delivering the parcel from its origin to its destination) includes three steps: pick up by a drone, transport by a truck, and delivery by a drone. We investigate how to fulfill all of the orders in one batch in order to minimize the total operational co
