Roles of Intermediaries in Developing Resilient Systems
Authors: Hingley Martin , Vilalta-Perdomo Eliseo L.
Published: January 2017

This theoretical chapter discusses the role that intermediaries may play in direct distribution, supply chains and supply networks. The first approach does not recognize benefits from striving for collaboration and avoids intermediaries' participation as much as possible. Conversely, the latter two emphasize the creation of economic and efficiency values, through the alignment of goals and resources directed by a stronger channel lead body. However, in the case of micro-producers, increasing these values is not the only motivation; lifestyle or esteem factors may be, for example, more potent drivers. The research extends multi-actor supply arrangements beyond chains and networks, by introducing the concept of supply communities. This is illustrated through a vignette of a regional food marketing umbrella group that plays an organizing role. Findings suggest intermediaries to act as triggers for collaboration. The complementary nature of the community approach suggests a framework for micro-businesses to strengthen their operations with existing traditional supply arrangements.
Exploring the Role of Open Innovation Intermediaries
Authors: Barlatier Pierre-Jean , Giannopoulou Eleni , Pénin Julien
Published: January 2017

In the era of open innovation, companies that want to innovate can no more remain isolated, they have to interact and collaborate with diverse actors of the innovation process. The rise of open innovation practices resulted in an increase of intermediaries for innovation. This chapter aims to better understand why innovative companies use the services of such intermediaries. Two distinct types of open innovation intermediaries have been identified, whose roles are significantly different; while the first type help companies to reduce transaction costs related to open innovation, the second type may be implicated directly in the creation, transfer and diffusion of knowledge. This chapter illustrates both roles in the case of public research valorization and distinguish clearly “Technology Transfer Organizations” (TTOs), whose role is to reduce transaction costs related to technology transfer from “Research and Technology Organizations” (RTOs) that are actively involved in knowledge creation and transfer processes.
The Need for News Forms of Financial Intermediation
Authors: Auvray Tristan , Dallery Thomas , Rigot Sandra
Published: January 2017

This chapter deals with intermediaries in the financial sector such as banks and institutional investors. These actors are expected to play a central role in economic growth via the funding of investment because they are supposed to match creditors' desires (households) with borrowers' needs (firms) at a macroeconomic level. It aims to reassess the theoretical role of financial intermediation related to the allocation of savings in a context of a structural decline in overall investment for thirty years. To achieve this goal, it studies the evolution of financial intermediaries' behaviour in their capacity to finance investment and identifies the weaknesses of our current financial system which does not allocate optimally savings to firms' productive projects. Then it suggests some policy implications defining new forms of financial intermediation in which public financial intermediaries would have to play a greater role.
Exploring the Sources of the Competitive Advantage of Logistics Service Providers
Authors: Lambourdière Eric , Verny Jérôme , Corbin Elsa
Published: January 2017

This chapter describes and analyzes how logistics service providers (LSPs) differ in the resource management decisions they make to gain competitive advantage in a rapidly changing and uncertain business environment. The resource-based theory of the firm and dynamic capabilities are employed as a theoretical backdrop. Using archival data, the authors find that four case LSPs structure and bundle their resource portfolios to build capabilities, which they leverage to create and maintain value for their customers. Leveraging strategies employed by the LSPs are influenced by their environmental contexts, leading to different strategies and performance levels among the firms. This research enhances understanding of the constructive impact that resources and capabilities can have on the performance of LSPs.

Authors: Sima Violeta , Gheorghe Ileana Georgiana
Published: January 2017

This chapter aimed to identify those factors that determine the green consumer satisfaction, having as the emerging point the consumer behavior definition and the sustainable development concept. The authors propose a new approach of the dimensions of the evaluation model for customer satisfaction including a new one, called The Green Dimension. An important goal was identifying the drivers of the consumer purchasing. The authors identified three main areas of the green dimension of customer satisfaction. They are related to Company, Product/service, and Price. Then some considerations regarding an integrated approach of strategic mix from a ‘green' perspective have been presented. According to research from Boston Consulting Group, in order to obtain a Green Advantage, companies should enhance their strategic mix taking into considerations green planning, green processes, green product, and green promotion. The authors added two more elements, namely people and eco-efficiency, resulting “The Green Strategy Mix”.
Effective Surveillance Management during Service Encounters
Authors: Bonfanti Angelo
Published: January 2017

This chapter aims to theoretically examine effective surveillance management (ESM) during service encounters within the servicescape and provide a conceptual framework for the study of this topic in a service management perspective. It analyses antecedents, dimensions and effects of ESM. This study especially proposes as antecedents both improving customer service experience along with meeting customers' need for security and implementing a surveillance service-oriented strategy that includes secure and safe servicescape design, deterrent communication, and trained and motivated security staff. This chapter suggests also that the dimensions of ESM (customer-physical service environment encounters, customer-technological surveillance systems encounters, and customer-security staff encounters) contribute to enhancing service quality, experience quality, and staff productivity. The integration of these dimensions, antecedents, and effects create a theoretically grounded framework that can serve as a starting point for future studies about this topic in the field of service management.

Authors: Vaughn Krystal , Dugan Erin
Published: January 2017

Many parents and teachers are often confounded when it comes to figuring out a child's presenting issues. Mental health consultants are able to note the frequency, proximity, duration and intensity of and in which the behavior(s) occur (American Psychological Association, 2013; Henderson & Martin, 2014). These professionals are equipped with the tools, education, and experience and are able to gather information, observe, and assess the challenging behaviors or presenting issues in order to formulate and conceptualize a treatment plan for the child, their parent(s), and/or the school/center based setting. Additionally, mental health consultants may offer valuable feedback; increase of knowledge, skills and awareness; development of treatment plans; and implementation of the necessary interventions. This chapter seeks to provide professionals with the definitions, differences, structure, and implementation of a mental health consultation model.

Through interviews with experienced anywhere leaders from several different organizations, this chapter clarifies how leaders meet and overcome those challenges. Building on existing behaviorally-based models of leadership, the authors propose a hierarchical taxonomy of anywhere leadership effectiveness behaviors. The taxonomy is composed of four metacategories (Relationships, Flexibility, Productivity, Culture) and fourteen subcategories, which detail the behavioral capabilities necessary for anywhere leadership. In doing so, this chapter provides a common framework for understanding anywhere leadership, lays the foundation for the assessment and development of anywhere leaders, and is a starting point for further research.
A New Way of Working
Authors: Handley Karen , McGrath-Champ Susan , Leung Philomena
Published: January 2017

This chapter provides evidence of the practical implementation of an aspect of ‘new ways of working', that is, flexible work arrangements (FWA) in the Australian accounting profession. It reports and analyses the results of interviews of twenty accounting professionals conducted in 2014. FWA refers to the interrelationship between temporal and spatial flexibility which are facilitated by technology. In this chapter, evidence is provided of the public rhetoric regarding FWA by accounting firms, particularly the Big Four firms. This is contrasted with anecdotal testimony from the interviews to reveal the success with which these goals have been adopted and implemented across the accounting profession, and the impact they have on work-life balance (WLB). The findings reveal inconsistencies and prejudices still in place in Australian accounting firms and suggest that, although there has been some success in this area, some conservative views still need challenging.

Authors: Azizan Syaidatina Akila Mohamad , Suki Norazah Mohd
Published: January 2017

The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) is applied as the guiding principle in this conceptual paper with the aims to discuss the factors in influencing consumers' intention to purchase organic food products among Muslim consumers. The literature review exposed that attitude, health concern, environmental concern and labelling affect consumer intention to purchase organic food, and moderated by Islamic values. Results suggest the role of religiousity in firming up the intention to purchase organic food. This paper extends the literature reviews on the consumer behavioural intention towards organic food products by incorporating religiousity values which have been lacking in previous research in sustainable food consumption and also gather another perspective of the role of halal and eco-labelling in influencing consumers' interpretation of the products. Further empirical studies can be carried out to assess the underlying linkages among the factors and uncover the viable model for future research.

Scour around submarine pipelines is one of the factors that affecting their stability which need to be considered. There have been several experimental investigations on scour depth. Although many studies have been conducted to investigate scour below a single pipeline, the effects of the spacing between two pipelines on scour characteristics are not properly understood. This study is focused to investigate the effects of pipeline diameters (D), gap ratio (G/D) between the pipelines, and the Reynolds Number (Re) on the scour depth. Simulations are conducted for two pipelines with diameters 0.075 m and 0.1 m, where the gap ratio is , , and . In case the pipeline diameter, , it is found that the relative scour depth increases with increasing the gap ratio, where and are upstream and downstream pipeline diameters, respectively. Meanwhile, when , the scour depth decreases with decreasing the gap ratio. For the gap, , the scour depth is smaller than at the gap and due to the disturbance of the vortex shedding around the upstream pipeline.

Coastal areas often experience changes in function, region supposed to be conservation area or coastal protection forests, as water catchment areas and habitats of mangrove forests have been turned into region large-scale housing, residential, industrial, ware housing and so on. Coastal area of Surabaya, especially in the East Surabaya, the reclaimed much influenced by several factors, including results from land fill for various purposes (residential areas, factories, bussiness and etc.) and caused by the sedimentation of the estuary lead the emergence of mainland. The impact of the reclamation both landfill or natural sedimentation certainly have an impact on shoreline.Based on the explanation of the law of local government No. 23, 2014 Article 6 [1], the meant of shoreline is the boundary meeting between the highest sea level and the mainland. The use of shoreline in this provision is intended for the determination of the administrative area in the management marine areas. Where is the position of the East Surabaya shoreline recently?This paper will answer the question to determine the East Surabaya shoreline using tidal data, image satellite and Real Time Kinematic-Global Network Satellite System (RTK-GNSS). The result can be used by Surabaya Government to manage buffer and marine zone especially in the eastern part of Surabaya.

The oceanographic data can be obtained by free and online websites of foreign countries. This oceanographic data are obtained from satellite observations result, but this online data is in a coarse resolution with a global coverage space, its usage in certain areas still needs to be combined and validated with the observed data locally or regionally. Thus, this oceanographic data from these local observations some be easily obtained and processed as well as easily accessible by people online, it would require equipments. In this research, the oceanographic data that need to be observed is the speed data, the direction of currents data and the tidal data. The oceanographic data obtained directly from the observed area uses is the sensors that is connected to the microcontroller and sent via a modem. In real time, these data submitted by the microcontroller via the modem that also serves as a gateway SMS directly to the server. From this server, the community can access these data online using the internet.

Marine pollution in Wonorejo estuary has been a concern. Partly, marine pollution is carried by the river and the effluent from fish ponds. The amount of fish harvesting for fishermen and fish ponds farmers, especially shrimp ponds decreases time by time. The aim of this study is to know water quality parameters that have exceeded from the quality standard criteria from field work and their impacts to marine biota. Sampling of water quality took place at ten stations along river up to open sea with three points of depth to find out the concentration of ammonia, phosphate, BOD, DO, and phenol. The average concentrations of water quality parameters, 0.6 mg/L for ammonia, 0.09 mg/L for phosphate, 6.8 mg/L for BOD, 5.51 mg/L for DO, and 0.0451 mg/L for phenol, respectively. High concentration of phenol can cause a death for some marine biota.

Published: January 2017

The usage of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as reinforcement has been limited due to difficulties associated with dispersion of MWCNTs during the processing and poor adhesion between MWCNTs and matrix. In this paper, the effect of chemical functionalization with strong acid on the dispersion of MWCNTs were studied. The functionalization of MWCNTs were performed in chemical solution of sulphuric acid (H2SO4) and nitric acid (HNO3) with ratio of 3:1 and prepared at 80°C for 4 hours. The pristine MWCNTs (PMWCNTs) and acid treated MWCNTs (AMWCNTs) were analyzed using TEM, XRD, FTIR and Pycnometer density. The effect of dispersion of PMWCNTs and AMWCNTs was studied in three different matrices which are in aqueous media (distilled water), metal matrix and polymer matrix. The XRD results determined that the impurities in pristine MWCNTs such as NiZn3 have been removed after the purification process. The presence of carboxylic acid (-COOH) and hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups were determined using FT-IR. Based on the dispersion analysis in aqueous media, PMWCNTs were poor in suspension stability. While, the TEM images showed less agglomeration of the AMWCNTs compared to PMWCNTs and obtained a uniform dispersion in metal matrix (Cu) and polymer (epoxy) matrix composites.

Published: January 2017

This paper details experimental results when turning Ti-6Al-4V using water-miscible vegetable oil-based cutting fluid. The effects of coolant concentration and working conditions on tool flank wear and tool life were evaluated. L27 fractional factorial Taguchi array was employed. Tool wear (VBB) ranged between 28.8 and 110 µm. The study concluded that a combination of VOs based cutting fluid concentration (10%), low cutting speed (58 m/min), feed rate (0.1mm/rev) and depth of cut (0.75mm) is necessary to minimise VBB. Additionally, it is noted that tool wear was significantly affected by cutting speeds. ANOVA results showed that the cutting fluid concentration is statistically insignificant on tool flank wear. A notable increase in tool life (TL) was recorded when a lower cutting speed was used.
