Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is one of the existing methods in the literature that lead to evolutionary changes and adjustments that have become a necessity in today’s business.

This paper presents a state of the art on works that were ...

Although the importance of these linkages has been described in conceptual literature, it has not been widely demonstrated empirically. The survey research was carried out in 73 medium and large-sized Slovenian manufactu...

We propose a novel significance measure for skeleton pruning, called bending potential ratio (BPR), in which the decision regarding whether a skeletal branch should be pruned or not is based on the context of the boundary segment that corresponds to the branch. By considering this contextual information, we can better evaluate the contribution of the boundary segment to the overall shape, which...

Relatives of clients in mental health services influence the client's possibilities for recovery by their everyday relationship. Relatives have, however, tradi...
