Recently our research group introduced the notion of Service Enabled Workflow (SEW) with the integration of Semantic Web Service (SWS) and Workflow. In this paper, we present a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)-based integrated software tool suite called MOSEW that provides functionalities to design and develop ontology based Quality of Service (QoS) aware SEWs.

Literature has recently increased its attention on brand management in family firms. Blurring boundaries between and business, divergent interests of non-family members, or a peculiar strategic decision-making framework which the family’s socioemotional wealth (SEW) may be prioritized make particularly complex. We contribute to literature through pioneering study benefits orientation for firm p...

atrial fibrillation is the most prevalent permanent arrhythmia. it may be associated with other cardiac pathologies which need surgical treatment. various types of surgery including the traditional cut-sew operations and operations using different energy sources are currently in use. in comparison with medical treatment, surgery is safe, effective, and has reliable results.

In this paper we discuss two image-based 3D modeling methods based on a multi-resolution evolution of a volumetric function’s levelset. In the former the role of the levelset implosion is to fuse (“sew” and “stitch”) together several partial reconstructions (depth maps) into a closed model. In the latter the levelset’s implosion is steered directly by the texture mismatch between views. Both so...

Family business literature barely addresses family farms and their innovation behavior. Innovation can be key to mitigate typical threats are faced with, e.g., global competition climate change. This article investigates socioemotional wealth (SEW) diversity of information sources as drivers. It also explores the role a moderator. A sample 911 was used for linear regression analysis. The SEW di...

Abstract This study investigates how family continuation, namely tradition and succession intention, alter the socially responsible behavior of small medium sized (SME) firms. Using a unique dataset, we have conducted multiple regressions on survey data from German SMEs show statistically economically significant increase in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) alongside planning succession. H...

This paper presents a high quality Enhanced Waveform Interpolative (EWI) speech coder at 2.8 kbps. The system incorporates novel features such as: dual-predictive analysis-bysynthesis (AbS) quantization of the slowly-evolving waveform (SEW), efficient parametrization of the rapidly-evolving waveform (REW) magnitude, and AbS vector quantization (VQ) of the REW parameter. Subjective tests indicat...
