The first Causality Challenge competition posted several causal discovery problems that require researchers to employ the full arsenal of state-of-the-art causal discovery methods, while prompting the development of new ones. Our approach used the formalism of Causal Bayesian Networks to model and induce causal relations and to make predictions about the effects of the manipulation of the varia...

I develop a model of framing contests to elucidate how cognitive frames influence organizational strategy making. Using ethnographic techniques to study the day-to-day practices of strategy making in one firm, I examine the ways actors attempted to transform their own cognitive frames of a situation into predominant frames through a series of interactions. Frames are the means by which managers...

To support the efficient appraisal and selection of available best practices, this paper proposes a strategy for the implementation of Business Process Redesign (BPR). Its backbone is formed by the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) multi-criteria method and our earlier research on the popularity and impact of redesign best practices. Using (AHP) we derive a classification of most suitable best...

Here we compare the outcomes of workshops held for two relatively large UK organisations, one public sector, and one private. Our conclusions are that there are relatively fe...

The style of engineering computing may change dramatically in the future. Large numbers of agents with local perception of the environment, autonomy, and considerable intelligence will be made to collaborate and form decision-making agents. When agents make correct decisions more often than not with probability p, a cooperation strategy based on simple majority makes the resulting decision-maki...

Maintenance strategy plays a very important role in all kind of manufacturing industries. Each maintenance strategy has their characteristics, importance and drawbacks. Performance of a machine depends on the type of maintenance strategies employed on it. Machines used in industries need proper maintenance because failure of machine may cause the production loss.

In this paper, an incentive scheme based on crashing lead time is proposed to coordinate a supplier-retailer supply chain (SC). In the investigated SC, the supplier applies a lot-for-lot replenishment policy to replenish its stock and determines the replenishment multiplier. Moreover, the transportation lead time is considered under the control of the supplier. The retailer as downstream member...
