We show that the full version of the so-called ‘rural hospital theorem’ generalizes to many-to-many matching problems where agents on both sides of the problem have substitutable and weakly separable preferences. We also show that when agents’ preferences satisfy substitutability, the domain of weakly separable pref-

In this note, I extend the work of Echenique (forthcoming) to show that a model of many-to-many matching with contracts may be embedded into a model of many-tomany matching with wage bargaining whenever (1) all agents’ preferences are substitutable and (2) the matching with contracts model is unitary, in the sense that every contractual relationship between a given firm–worker pair is specified...

teleworking as an innovative way has many benefits in governmental, organizational and individual levels, but it faced with different variables in plan and implementation which is caused to low acceptance rate in organizations. by identifying and controlling these variables, managers and decision-makers can use teleworking programs in their organizations. the aim of this study is to investigate...

national health information network (nhin) is a network in which all health care organizations, government agencies and other health-related organizations are connected to each other to exchange information about health. due to the necessity of a framework for nhin development, in this paper, according to the literature review, a definition for nhin framework was provided, and then the nhin rel...

customer knowledge management (ckm) has been a subject of much attention in recent years. the attractiveness of this subject is the result of its benefits for organizations; but despite the benefits of ckm implementation, many projects aimed at implementing ckm in organizations fail due to companies’ negligence with respect to its implementation factors. meanwile the majority of organizations u...

If current trends continue, today’s small-scale general-purpose CMPs will soon be replaced by multi-core architectures integrating tens or even hundreds of cores on-chip. Most likely, some of these many-core CMPs will implement the hardware-managed, implicitly-addressed, coherent caches memory model. Cache coherence in these designs will be probably maintained through a directory-based cache co...

We present an algorithm for automatically constructing a decompositional shape model from examples. Unlike current approaches to structural model acquisition, in which one-to-one correspondences among appearance-based features are used to construct an exemplar-based model, we search for many-tomany correspondences among qualitative shape features (multi-scale ridges and blobs) to construct a ge...

keeping and retaining of professional staff in organizations and increase their performance have always been the concern of many organizations and companies in competitive situation.  achievement of these objectives, depends on many factors such as perceiving organization and supervisor supports by the staff. in this research, the effect of perceived organizational and supervisor support on org...
