The existing works point out that smaller organisations have been shown to have different technology adoption patterns than large ones. However, it is unclear whether Small to Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) and large organisations take decisions for the adoption of integration technologies by focusing on different factors. Moreover, the literature also shows that there is an absence of theoret...

This paper studies a principal-agent model of the relationship between officeholder and the electorate, where everyone is initially uninformed about the officeholder’s ability. If office-holder effort and ability interact in the determination of performance in office, then an office-holder has an incentive to learn i.e. raise effort so that performance becomes a more accurate signal of her abil...

Coronal loops are the basic elements of the solar corona and are responsible for the totality of the coronal X-ray emission. Loop physics is therefore important to understand the structure, heating, dynamics and evolution of the corona. A well-established and useful approach to study loop physics has been the detailed hydrodynamic modeling of the connned plasma, coupled to the synthesis of obse...

Observations of the large two-ribbon flare on 7 November 2004 made using SOHO and TRACE data are interpreted in terms of a three-dimensional magnetic field model. Photospheric flux evolution indicates that −1.4 × 10 Mx of magnetic helicity was injected into the active region during the 40-hour build-up prior to the flare. The magnetic model places a lower bound of 8×10 ergs on the energy stored...

Abstract CASBEE Wellness Office, a tool assessing buildings and workplaces in terms of worker health, workplace productivity, resilience, has been operation since 2019 certified more than 90 properties Japan. In this study, the trends were analyzed. Most them accredited with high ranks, S or A. allows self‐certification, potential tend to be applied for third‐party certification. Buildings occu...

The management of the unmanageable dental patient for restorative procedures has long been the bane of the dental practitioner. The handicapped, emotionally disturbed, mentally retarded, very young or frightened patients were often abused or neglected. Some members of the dental profession, recognizing this inequality, have seen fit to acquire particular skills in the field of anesthesiology so...

Staying aware of each other in cooperative team work is something we take for granted in the everyday world, even if collaboration is not continuously face-to-face, and team members frequently shift from group to individual activity during work sessions. Maintaining this intuitive fidelity of awareness, e.g. of team members working in the office next door, is on the other hand something that ha...

UNLABELLED We examined concentrations and migration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ten mixed-use buildings in southeast Michigan, USA. In an office and work zone in each building, air exchange rates (AERs) were measured using perfluorocarbon tracers, and over 96 VOC species were measured by GC/MS over a 7-day period. VOCs were then apportioned to sources in offices, work zones, and out...

BACKGROUND People with disabilities report physical barriers in doctors' offices that affect the quality of care. Whether most or few doctors' offices are accessible is not known. We address this gap with data on 2389 primary care provider facilities. OBJECTIVES The analysis seeks to describe overall primary care office physical accessibility and identify (1) in which areas offices meet acces...

Models of electoral competition between two opportunistic, office-motivated parties typically predict that both parties become indistinguishable in equilibrium. I show that this strong connection between the office motivation of parties and their equilibrium choice of identical platforms depends on two possibly false assumptions: 1. Issue spaces are uni-dimensional and 2. Parties are unitary ac...
