Firms are increasingly selecting hybrid governance in interfirm relationships to execute a wide range of activities. To aid cumulative theory building, we propose a typology of hybrid governance identifying four types characterized by the levels of two types of asset specificity pertaining to intangible assets: process specificity and expertise specificity. We validate the typology this using d...

To achieve the Net-Zero Emissions goal by 2050, a major upscale in green hydrogen needs to be achieved; this will also facilitate use of renewable electricity as source decarbonised fuel hard-to-abate sectors such industry and transport. Nearly 80% world's offshore wind resource is waters deeper than 60 m, where bottom-fixed turbines are not feasible. This creates significant opportunity couple...

Eight key IS strategic alignment studies are reviewed and classified using Miles and Snow’s business strategy typology in an effort to reconcile different approaches. Key findings include a high degree of consistency between study results along typology lines and support for a moderating effect of business strategy on the relationship between IS strategic alignment and business performance.

It goes without saying that a good linguistic theory should neither undergenerate (i.e., it should not miss any attested patterns) nor overgenerate (i.e., it should not predict any “unattestable” patterns). Recent literature has argued that the Maximum Entropy (ME; Goldwater & Johnson 2003) framework provides a probabilistic extension of categorical Harmonic Grammar (HG; Legendre et al. 1990; S...

Prosodic Typology II gathers a set of papers detailing the intonational phonologies of 14 different languages from across the globe. As the name suggests, Prosodic Typology II is the successor to the first Prosodic Typology volume (Jun 2005b); the introductory chapter by Sun-Ah Jun describes it as an extension of the original collection. There is a great deal of continuity between this volume a...

In Algeria, liberalization reforms undertaken since the 1990s have resulted in negative effects on the development and management of irrigation schemes, as well as on the conditions of farmers. Reforms have been undertaken to improve the performance of irrigation schemes, such as the national plan of agricultural development (PNDA) in 2000 and the water pricing policy of 2005. However, after im...

BACKGROUND The complexity of surgical interventions has major implications for the design of RCTs. Trials need to consider how and whether to standardize interventions so that, if successful, they can be implemented in practice. Although guidance exists for standardizing non-pharmaceutical interventions in RCTs, their application to surgery is unclear. This study reports new methods for standar...

This study proposes a new qualitative typology that can be used to classify learners treading water into different skill-based categories. To establish the typology, 38 participants were videotaped while treading water and their movement patterns were qualitatively analyzed by two experienced biomechanists. 13 sport science students were then asked to classify eight of the original participants...
