Creating a Functional Interdependency Map for Supporting the “Act of Improvement” in Business Process Improvement Projects
Business process improvement (BPI) is of high priority for practitioners. But especially the most value-adding phase in a BPI project, namely the “act of improvement”, is insufficiently supported despite the many existing...

Fossil sloths are regarded as obligate herbivores for reasons including peculiarities of their craniodental morphology and that all living sloths feed exclusively on plants. We challenge this view based on isotopic analyses of...

Philipp Trotter
Oct 01, 2016
While it is commonly believed that democracy influences public service provision, comparably few studies have assessed how recent democratisation in developing countries has impacted tangible public service outcomes for...

Flexible latching
Controlling cognitive systems like domestic robots or intelligent assistive environments requires striking an appropriate balance between responsiveness and persistence. Basic goal arbitration is an essential element of low...
Population genetics of mouse lemur vomeronasal receptors
BACKGROUND: A major effort is underway to use population genetic approaches to identify loci involved in adaptation. One issue that has so far received limited attention is whether loci that show a phylogenetic signal of...
How Much Am I Expected to Pay for My Parents’ Firm? An Institutional Logics Perspective on Family Discounts
Recent evidence suggests that successors do not simply inherit their parents' firm, but have to pay a certain price. Building on institutional logics literature, we explore successors' family discount expectations, defined as...

What are the outcomes of core decompression without augmentation in patients with nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head?
PURPOSE: Core decompression (CD) of the femoral head is performed to preserve the hip in avascular necrosis (AVN). The outcome following this procedure differs based on the medical centre and the technique. Also, the time to...
Predicting heterogeneous ice nucleation with a data-driven approach.
Water in nature predominantly freezes with the help of foreign materials through a process known as heterogeneous ice nucleation. Although this effect was exploited more than seven decades ago in Vonnegut's pioneering cloud...
Populism, post-truth politics and the failure to deceive the public in Uganda's energy debate
Using populist tactics to frame energy transitions is neither new nor a predominantly Western phenomenon. In sub-Saharan Africa, populist leaders have long dispensed energy endowments for political gains. This paper studies...

Double Higgs boson production and Higgs self-coupling extraction at CLIC
Abstract The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a future electron–positron collider that will allow measurements of the trilinear Higgs self-coupling in double Higgs boson events produced at its...
Re-focusing foreign involvement in sub-Saharan Africa's power sector on sustainable development
International engagement in sub-Saharan Africa's power sector is increasing rapidly. Aid is used to directly finance a growing number of foreign companies to implement power projects, accompanied by calls for policy and...
