Creators: name: Montakhabi, Mehdi
name: Van Der Graaf, Shenja
Publisher: name: Journal of Business Models
Year: 2021

description: This paper is about contextual policy limitations, outside firms’ boundaries, which are said to restrict the applicability of open business models. In this view, the goal is to analyse the actionability of open business models in the context of European competition policy (EUCOMP). Domains of EUCOMP are systematically reviewed to investigate such limitations ‘perspective’ in the application of open business models in Europe. Furthermore, the appropriateness of EUCOMP is reflected on in dealing with novel contribution models. In doing so, the paper can yield insights into policy improvement requirements.

description: A freer and less regulated market for agriculture is envisaged for the nineties while agricultural cooperatives will not receive the same degree of protection and financial aid from the government as in the past. Surviving this changed situation will require a greater degree of strategic decision-making ability from cooperative managements and boards of directors. This article firstly describes the strategic management paradigm and secondly proposes a strategic management model which takes account of the changing environment and the unique nature of cooperatives.

Year: 2021

description: Platform-based business models are increasingly relevant. Scholars mainly focus on the strategic dimension, but what are the tactics to build and evolve digital platforms? This article proposes a novel framework, which assists in subdividing the scope of possible activities of digital platform sponsors in a temporal and contextual manner. The framework comprises four context dimensions (platform attributes, core product, governance, ecosystem) and four lifecycle phases (birth, expansion, leadership, renewal). In particular, three key insights emerge regarding the critical role of the leadership phase (in terms of institutional and regulatory influence and the need to build a defense) as well as a lack of studies in the renewal phase.

description: While recent progress in quantum hardware open the door for significant speedup in certain key areas, quantum algorithms are still hard to implement right, and the validation of such quantum programs is a challenge. Early attempts either suffer from the lack of automation or parametrized reasoning, or target high-level abstract algorithm description languages far from the current de facto consensus of circuit-building quantum programming languages. As a consequence, no significant quantum algorithm implementation has been currently verified in a scale-invariant manner. We propose Qbricks, the first formal verification environment for circuit-building quantum programs, featuring clear separation between code and proof, parametric specifications and proofs, high degree of proof automation and allowing to encode quantum programs in a natural way, i.e. close to textbook style. Qbricks builds on best practice of formal verification for the classical case and tailor them to the quantum case: we bring a new domain-specific circuit-building language for quantum programs, namely Qbricks-DSL, together with a new logical specification language Qbricks-Spec and a dedicated Hoare-style deductive verification rule named Hybrid Quantum Hoare Logic. Especially, we introduce and intensively build upon HOPS, a higher-order extension of the recent path-sum symbolic representation, used for both specification and automation. To illustrate the opportunity of Qbricks, we implement the first verified parametric implementations of several famous and non-trivial quantum algorithms, including the quantum part of Shor integer factoring (Order Finding - Shor-OF), quantum phase estimation (QPE) - a basic building block of many quantum algorithms, and Grover search. These breakthroughs were amply facilitated by the specification and automated deduction principles introduced within Qbricks.

Year: 2021

description: It is not only new trends and technologies that are currently disrupting and changing the way we do and think business. Global geopolitical stability is deteriorating, leading to rising uncertainty for international trade. Climate change is fostering the need for inclusiveness in business and for an increase in sustainability to the zero-impact level. In addition, we face exogenous shocks such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Although none of these factors are unforeseen, their magnitude and recurrence have provided a platform for a massive refocusing of business and research priorities since the beginning of 2020. Therefore, the fifth stage of business model research will be known as “the role of business models in times of uncertainty”. In this paper we discuss the role of business models in times of uncertainty and provide new venues for further research and progression of business models as we know them.

description: We investigated the effects of uniaxial stress on the pressure-induced alpha-to-omega transition in pure titanium (Ti) by means of angle dispersive x-ray diffraction in a diamond-anvil cell. Experiments under four different pressure environments reveal that: (1) the onset of the transition depends on the pressure medium used, going from 4.9 GPa (no pressure medium) to 10.5 GPa (argon pressure medium); (2) the a and w phases coexist over a rather large pressure range, which depends on the pressure medium employed; (3) the hysteresis and quenchability of the w phase is affected by differences in the sample pressure environment; and (4) a short term laser-heating of Ti lowers the alpha-to-omega transition pressure. Possible transition mechanisms are discussed in the light of the present results, which clearly demonstrated the influence of uniaxial stress in the alpha-to-omega transition.

An environmental performance declaration of the mathematics building
Creators: name: Grimm, Henrique Falck
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This project is a coursework carried out by students of the CIVL 498C technical elective course in Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia. It is part of a comparative study between the environmental performances of different institutional buildings within the Vancouver Campus, and its results will be used in the UBC LCA Database. In total, 17 buildings were assessed, including Chemistry, Chemistry North, Chemistry South, Henry Angus, Wesbrook, Geography, Earth Sciences, Allard Hall, Forest Science Center, Mathematics, Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Music, Lasserre, Pharmacy, Kaiser, Douglas Kenny and AERL. This paper focuses only in the Math building study and it is important to underline that the results presented here are not representative of the original construction of the building in 1925, but a LCA study of the materials and construction methods used. The previous model and report by Nemec and the class notes were base for this study. The previous model was improved and analysed for product and construction stages. OnCenter’s OnScreen Takeoff (OST) and the Athena Sustainable Materials Institute’s Environmental Impact Estimator (EIE) were the softwares used in the modeling. The results showed the efficiency of wood as building material in terms of environmental performance. The total Math building impacts are between 60% and 80% less than the average of the buildings analysed. However, to obtain a complete knowledge of the influence of wood in the environmental performance of buildings, conducting a LCA study through the whole life cycle, including use and end-of-life stages, is fundamental.

description: In this study, we have identified certain fundamental limitations of a mixing length parameterization used in a popular turbulent kinetic energy-based subgrid-scale model. Replacing this parameterization with a more physically realistic one significantly improves the overall quality of the large-eddy simulations (LESs) of stable boundary layers. For the range of grid sizes considered here (specifically, 1 m -- 12.5 m), the revision dramatically reduces the grid-size sensitivity of the simulations. Most importantly, the revised scheme allows us to reliably estimate the first- and second-order statistics of a well-known LES intercomparison case, even with a coarse grid-size of O(10 m).

description: Here, inspired by the operation of conventional semiconductor transistors, we introduce a novel class of bulk materials with nonreciprocal and non-Hermitian electromagnetic response. Our analysis shows that material nonlinearities combined with a static electric bias may lead to a linearized permittivity tensor that lacks the Hermitian and transpose symmetries. Remarkably, the material can either dissipate or generate energy, depending on the relative phase of the electric field components. We introduce a simple design for an electromagnetic isolator based on an idealized "MOSFET-metamaterial" and show that its performance can in principle surpass conventional Faraday isolators due to the material gain. Furthermore, it is suggested that analogous material responses may be engineered in natural media in nonequilibrium situations. Our solution determines an entirely novel paradigm to break the electromagnetic reciprocity in a bulk nonlinear material using a static electric bias.

Trapped Rydberg ions: a new platform for quantum information processing

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: In this chapter, we present an overview of experiments with trapped Rydberg ions and outline the advantages and challenges of developing applications of this new platform for quantum computing, sensing and simulation. Trapped Rydberg ions feature several important properties, unique in their combination: they are tightly bound in a harmonic potential of a Paul trap, in which their internal and external degrees of freedom can be controlled in a precise fashion. High fidelity state preparation of both internal and motional states of the ions has been demonstrated, and the internal states have been employed to store and manipulate qubit information. Furthermore, strong dipolar interactions can be realised between ions in Rydberg states and be explored for investigating correlated many-body systems. By laser coupling to Rydberg states, the polarisability of the ions can be both enhanced and tuned. This can be used to control the interactions with the trapping fields in a Paul trap as well as dipolar interactions between the ions. Thus, trapped Rydberg ions present an attractive alternative for fast entangling operations as compared to those mediated by normal modes of trapped ions, which are advantageous for a future quantum computer or a quantum simulator.

The main analysis investigates the implications of the agreement for the international trade of low-income and middle-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, for which food imports but also agricultural exports bulk particularly large. Based on consensus estimates of changes in world prices of agricultural commodities resulting from the Uruguay Round, the effects of the Round on Africa's trade are quantified using a simple economic model under alternative assumptions regarding the adjustment of real exchange rates, adoption of economic policy reforms to reduce the bias against agriculture in Africa, and compliance of countries in the region with the Uruguay Round requirement for the tariffication of administered restrictions on imports of agricultural goods.

We present here new generalizations of the Michelson- and Sagnac-type time-delay interferometry data combinations. These combinations cancel laser phase noise in the presence of different up and down propagation delays in each arm of the array, and slowly varying systematic motion of the spacecraft. The gravitational wave sensitivities of these generalized combinations are the same as previously computed for the stationary cases, although the combinations are now more complicated. We introduce a diagrammatic representation to illustrate that these combinations are actually synthesized equal-arm interferometers.

The results show tlmt agricultural workers, cropped land, fertilizer and use of tractors had significant effects on the regional total agricultural and food production growth. These factors together accounted for between 37 and 41 % of the total variation in food and agricultural production gro\\1h. This suggests that other variables, not included in the models due to data problems do play a very crucial role. TI1ese findings have important implications for improving food and agricultw-al performance in the region. In promoting food and agricultural growth, SADC governments should not only concentrate on improvements in the productivity of the four conventional factors of production, also on other parameters. Other policy-related variables such as producer prices, weather factors, and irrigation and land degradation indices should be given due consideration.

description: Arguments of irrational response of peasants to changes in product prices have been put forward, as have arguments for rational economic behaviour. The paper investigates whether the fanners ' behaviour complies with economic theory - if they respond in an economically rational manner - when they produce a crop both as a staple and cash crop. A Nerlovian partial adjustment Jagged model was used to estimate the maize supply response of fanners in the Middledrifi district of the Eastern Cape to changes in product prices. The results indicate that producers are responsive to price incentives and their response is elastic in both the short (1,23) and long run (1,41). The coefficient of adjustment which measures the speed of adjustment is 0,87. The prices of maize and the competing crop (sorghum) and the areas under maize in the preceding season are found to be important factors to the producers in their land allocation decision making process. The model therefore shows that fanners to cl1anges in product prices to product price changes to changes in product prices.

description: Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANET) are a proper subset of mobile wireless networks, where nodes are revulsive, the vehicles are armed with special electronic devices on the motherboard OBU (On Board Unit) which enables them to trasmit and receive messages from other vehicles in the VANET. Furthermore the communication between the vehicles, the VANET interface is donated by the contact points with road infrastructure. VANET is a subgroup of MANETs. Unlike the MANETs nodes, VANET nodes are moving very fast. Impound a permanent route for the dissemination of emergency messages and alerts from a danger zone is a very challenging task. Therefore, routing plays a significant duty in VANETs. decreasing network overhead, avoiding network congestion, increasing traffic congestion and packet delivery ratio are the most important issues associated with routing in VANETs. In addition, VANET network is subject to various security attacks. In base VANET systems, an algorithm is used to dicover attacks at the time of confirmation in which overhead delay occurs. This paper proposes (P-Secure) approach which is used for the detection of DoS attacks before the confirmation time. This reduces the overhead delays for processing and increasing the security in VANETs. Simulation results show that the P-Secure approach, is more efficient than OBUmodelVaNET approach in terms of PDR, e2e_delay, throughput and drop packet rate.

description: Periodic models for seasonal data allow the parameters of the model to vary across the different seasons. This paper uses the components of UK consumption to see whether the periodic autoregressive (PAR) model yields more accurate forecasts than non-periodic models, such as the airline model of Box and Jenkins (1970), and autoregressive models that pre-test for (seasonal) unit roots. We analyse possible explanations for the relatively poor forecast performance of the periodic models that we find, notwithstanding the apparent support such models receive from the data in-sample.

description: Layered nanolaminate ternary carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides with general formula Mn+1AXn or MAX (n = 1, 2, or 3, M is an early transition metal, A is mostly group 13 or 14 element, and X is C and/or N) has revolutionized the world of nanomaterials, due to the coexistence of both ceramic and metallic nature, giving rise to exceptional mechanical, thermal, electrical, chemical properties and wide range of applications. Although several solid-state bulk synthesis methods have been developed to produce a variety of MAX phases, however, for certain applications, the growth of MAX phases, especially in its high-quality epitaxial thin films form is of increasing interest. Here, we summarize the progress made thus far in epitaxial growth and property evaluation of MAX phase thin films grown by various deposition techniques. We also address the important future research directions to be made in terms of thin-film growth. Overall, in the future, high-quality single-phase epitaxial thin film growth and engineering of chemically diverse MAX phases may open up interesting new avenues for next-generation technology.

description: Git is used as the distributed version control system for many open-source software projects. One Git-based service, GitHub, is the most common code hosting and repository service for open-source software projects. For researchers that study software engineering, the content that is hosted on these platforms provides much valuable data. There are some alternatives to get GitHub data such as GitHub Archive, GitHub API or GHTorrent. Among these options, GHTorrent is the most widely known and used GitHub dataset in the literature. Although there are some review studies about software engineering challenges across the GitHub platform, no review of GHTorrent dataset-specific research is available. In this study, the 172 studies that use GHTorrent as a data source were categorized within the scope of open source software development challenges and a systematic literature review was carried out. Moreover, the pros and cons of the dataset have been indicated and the focused issues of the literature on and the open challenges have been noted.

description: Recent astronomical observations obtained with the Kepler and TESS missions and their related ground-based follow-ups revealed an abundance of exoplanets with a size intermediate between Earth and Neptune. A low occurrence rate of planets has been identified at around twice the size of Earth, known as the exoplanet radius gap or radius valley. We explore the geometry of this gap in the mass-radius diagram, with the help of a Mathematica plotting tool developed with the capability of manipulating exoplanet data in multidimensional parameter space, and with the help of visualized water equations of state in the temperature-density graph and the entropy-pressure graph. We show that the radius valley can be explained by a compositional difference between smaller, predominantly rocky planets and larger planets that exhibit greater compositional diversity including cosmic ices (water, ammonia, methane) and gaseous envelopes. In particular, among the larger planets, when viewed from the perspective of planet equilibrium temperature, the hot ones are consistent with ice-dominated composition without significant gaseous envelopes, while the cold ones have more diverse compositions, including various amounts of gaseous envelopes.
