corporate support for entrepreneurship is the most important element for the development of corporate entrepreneurship and is considered as one of the main corporate entrepreneurial antecedents. it involves trust in corporate staff and training them for promoting recognition of opportunities, exploring new and valuable resources, innovative productions and profit-making processes. corporate sup...

This article presents a theory of seven cultural value orientations that form three cultural value dimensions. This theory permits more finely tuned characterization of cultures than other theories. It is distinctive in deriving the cultural orientations from a priori theorizing. It also specifies a coherent, integrated system of relations among the orientations, postulating that they are inter...

We utilized time-integrated and time-resolved photoluminescence of a-axis and c-axis gallium nitride nanowires to elucidate the origin of the blue-shifted ultraviolet photoluminescence in a-axis GaN nanowires relative to c-axis GaN nanowires. We attribute this blue-shifted ultraviolet photoluminescence to emission from surface trap states as opposed to previously proposed causes such as strain ...

A study on influence of seed orientation on seed germination of three species of rattans namely, Calamus prasinus, C. stoloniferus and C. thwaitesii made by sowing the seeds at 2 cm depth in vertical (micropyle end upward), horizontal (micropylar end sideward) and in vertical(micropylar end downward) orientations. Maximum germination of 80% in seeds of C. prasinus recorded in inverted position ...

PURPOSE To evaluate parameters associated with astigmatism axis orientation. METHODS A retrospective population-based study was conducted on 67,899 (53% males) Israeli Defense Force conscripts aged 16 to 22 years with >or=0.25 D of astigmatism, using prerecruitment examination and demographic data that included a validated general intelligence score. Refractive errors were classified by the c...

We consider the efficient computation of sequences of push actions that simultaneously orient two different polygons. Our motivation for studying this problem comes from the observation that appropriately oriented parts admit simple sensorless sorting. We study the sorting of two polygonal parts by first putting them in properly selected orientations. We give an O(n log n)-time algorithm to enu...

Evaluating the oil-water temperatures in flowlines is demanding mostly deep offshore applications where flow assurance issues and dramatic heat transfer are anticipated to occur. Consequently, a 3-D mathematical model of Newtonian under non-isothermal conditions established investigate mechanisms two-phase transportation horizontal inclined flowlines. In this study, first modified then implemen...

Several statistical image properties have been associated with large subsets of traditional visual artworks. Here, we investigate some of these properties in three categories of art that differ in artistic claim and prestige: (1) Traditional art of different cultural origin from established museums and art collections (oil paintings and graphic art of Western provenance, Islamic book illustrati...
