Through the analysis of logistics capability of the supply chain in manufacturing enterprise, this study has established an evaluation system of logistics capability of the supply chain from four aspects. Rough sets theory is used to attribute importance to determine weights of the subspace dimension indicators and the membership function in fuzzy theory is used to determine the indicators of t...

Ecological indicators, historical land use, and invasive species detection in the lower Iowa River floodplain." MA has been approved by the Examining Committee for the thesis requirement for the Master of Arts degree in Geography at the May 2014 graduation.

The current study used ecological momentary assessment to test several tenets of the reserve capacity model (L.C. Gallo & K. A. Matthews, 2003). Women (N = 108) with varying socioeconomic status (SES) monitored positive and negative psychosocial experiences and emotions across 2 days. Measures of intrapsychic and social resources were aggregated to represent the reserve capacity available to ma...

We address the question how citation-based bibliometric indicators can best be normalized to ensure fair comparisons between publications from different scientific fields and different years. In a systematic large-scale empirical analysis, we compare a traditional normalization approach based on a field classification system with three source normalization approaches. We pay special attention t...

Abstract Inclusive educational practices have been adopted worldwide to address inequalities endemic education systems. In South Africa, the process toward inclusion commenced in October 1996 and was realized 2001 with Education White Paper 6. However, implementation of Africa has marred by challenges. These challenges largely examined through an ecosystemic theoretical lens offering insight in...

The ability to achieve ecological sustainability and the sustainable development of marine and estuarine ecosystems constitutes a complex major challenge and depends on many driving forces, often conflicting with each other. In particular, there are three major drivers: (a) the search for human well-being, health and safety, (b) the maintenance of ecological sustainability and environmental equ...

In a work of Just, Miller, Scheepers and Szeptycki it was asked whether certain diagonalization properties for sequences of open covers are provably closed under taking finite or countable unions. In a recent work, Scheepers proved that one of the properties in question is closed under taking countable unions. After surveying the known results, we show that none of the remaining classes is prov...
