Activity related phenomena can induce radialvelocity variations, which can be very important when dealing with extra-solar planet search programmes requiring highprecision radial-velocity measurements. In this paper we present a new chromospheric activity index, SCOR, based on the Ca ii H line central reemission, and constructed using CORALIE spectra. After one year of measurements, values of S...

Little is known about the development of the skin conductance orienting response (SCOR) in childhood. This longitudinal study examines the effects of age on initial SCOR, habituation, and reorienting. Skin conductance responses to nonsignal auditory stimuli were recorded from 200 male and female children at five different time points (ages 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 years). Longitudinal latent growth cu...

Along with the day-to-day growing importance that Taiwan’s mobile phone industry has in the world, the establishment of a global logistics system not only forms the basis for the internationalization of an enterprise, but it also becomes a useful weapon, when facing the threat of globalization. Nevertheless, current research studies in the academic field regarding the planning and methodology f...

We report on preliminary work towards developing a modelbased method for assessing the impact of an IT solution implementation on business metrics in the supply chain domain. We use the supply chain operations model (SCOR) and extend it with metric interdependencies and solution and best practice relationships. We then estimate the likely improvement in a SCOR performance attribute or level I m...

Supply chain management is an area which gains much attention both from scholars and practitioners when considering the relationship between economic and ecologic issues and goals. Initiatives from Green IT and Green IS are widely discussed and broad supply chain management concepts like Green SCM, which extends the concept of global supply chain management with ecological aspects like resource...

Records of 594 calving dates and 493 calving intervals collected from a herd of Retinta beef cows in southwest Spain were studied. Their efficacy as reproductive measures were compared when a long breeding season was utilized. Variables used were date of present calving (DOC), date of subsequent calving (DOSC), time from start of breeding season to calving (TBSC), interval to next calving (CI),...

The Structural Classification of RNA (SCOR) database provides a survey of the three-dimensional motifs contained in 259 NMR and X-ray RNA structures. In one classification, the structures are grouped according to function. The RNA motifs, including internal and external loops, are also organized in a hierarchical classification. The 259 database entries contain 223 internal and 203 external loo...

This paper presents results obtained from simulating a service system with process oriented simulation methodology. To make the service system responsive and efficient, the SCOR modeling idea is incorporated to build the simulation model. Awesim is a process oriented simulation modeling methodology and so is the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR), developed by supply chain council. A dent...

This work is a unique integration of three different areas, including smart eye status monitoring, supply chain operations reference (SCOR), and system dynamics, to explore the dynamics network eye/vision monitoring systems. Chronic diseases such as glaucoma affect millions individuals worldwide and, if left untreated, can lead irreversible vision loss. Nearly half affected population unaware c...
