description: In pursuit of an organization level comprehensive theoretical framework for participative work structures, this study identifies how organization-based incentives and employee involvement affect a collective attitude and behavior of employees in order to ultimately improve labor productivity. From realistic group conflict theory, organizational social cohesion is derived as a proximal collective attitudinal outcome of  the participative practices. Drawing on research and evidence, reduced voluntary turnover is derived as a collective behavioral outcome of organizational social cohesion. Finally, labor productivity is regarded as a distal organizational outcome which may be determined by the indirect effects of the participative practices through the collective attitudinal and behavioral outcomes. Using a multi-source and partially lagged U.S. large company dataset, it is indicated that both participative practices are positively related to organizational social cohesion and negatively influence collective voluntary turnover through organizational social cohesion. It is further demonstrated that organization-based incentives improve labor productivity through reduced voluntary turnover whereas employee involvement increases it through both enhanced social cohesion and decreased voluntary turnover. This study’s theoretical claim and empirical knowledge are envisaged to contribute to our systematic understanding about how and why participative practices leverage greater organizational productivity from employees.

description: Any work of environmentally oriented fiction that seeks to represent the wide-reaching effects of climate change is faced with the problem of scale. These texts must render visible change which is at once ubiquitous and microscopic, along with the cascade of side-effects generated in the wake of rising temperature, rising sea levels, and winnowing biodiversity. In short order, these texts must fully imagine what it means to live within the modern global risk society. Borrowing this sociological model from the late Ulrich Beck, I analyze the literary work of Paolo Bacigalupi, one of the foremost authors in the growing genre of climate fiction. Arguing that Bacigalupi centers extractive industry and the concurrent problems of global resource scarcity within his fiction, I demonstrate how Beck’s model of risk society reveals the nuances of living with risk in these narratives. With particular focus on Beck’s final theories of emancipatory catastrophism, I argue that Bacigalupi’s novels complicate the possibility of social metamorphosis due to the mediation of identity and the common good by national institutions. Through this, Bacigalupi complicates attitudes and themes within the ecocritical milieu by questioning the degree to which anyone can respond to risk without knowing its source.

The evolution of biological & geochemical electron transfer reactions
Creators: name: Kim, John Dongun
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: The chemistry of life is characterized by a set of oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions far from thermodynamic equilibrium.  In this thesis, I examine geological and biological electron transfer systems that would have enabled the existence of self-replicating and energy-transducing organic matter, the origin of life.  In chapter 1, I give a brief overview of the topic, which is covered in greater detail in chapters 2,3 and 4. In chapter 2, I demonstrate that photo-induced abiological electron transfer reaction of iron-bearing minerals could have contributed to the oxidation of Earth's atmosphere in the Precambrian and provided reductants for early organisms. In chapter 3, I examine a probable evolutionary pathway of early metalloenzymes.  Using bacterial ferredoxins as an example, I show how early protoenzymes, capable of electron transfer reactions, may have evolved from iron-sulfur mineral surfaces. In chapter 4, I reveal structural relationships across metal-binding protein folds that are capable of electron transfer reactions.

Apposition and the structure of discourse
Creators: name: Koev, Todor K.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: The current dissertation focuses on two interpretational properties of APPOSITIVE CONSTRUCTIONS: (i) their (often) NOT-AT-ISSUE status, i.e. the fact that they can be perceived as secondary to the main point of the utterance, and (ii) their PROJECTION behavior, i.e. the fact that they typically escape the scope of external operators (e.g. Chierchia & McConnell-Ginet 2000, Potts 2005).    I analyze appositive constructions as adjuncts (e.g. Jackendoff 19&&, Potts 2005) which  are interpreted as in-situ conjuncts. Root clauses, appositive relative clauses, and possibly all appositive constructions are assumed to form FORCE PHRASES (see Rizzi 199&, Krifka 2001). Force heads are operators which introduce a fresh variable for the proposition of their scope. Since lexical expressions (operators or predicates) are relativized to propositional variables, Force heads can bind into the lexical expressions in their syntactic scope (cf. Stone 1999, Stone & Hardt 1999). This mechanism keeps apart appositive content from main clause content and is key to explaining the exceptional properties of appositives mentioned above. First, propositional variables introduced by Force heads express proposals to update the context set. The fact that appositive proposals are usually introduced before main clause proposals explains why appositives are often not at-issue: all proposals associated with a sentence are silently accepted except the one introduced last, which is at-issue. Second, similarly to Force heads, lexical operators introduce propositional variables for the content of their scope, but, unlike Force heads, can be bound and thus interact with higher operators. Since appositives form separate ForcePs, their interpretation does not depend on whether or not they appear in the syntactic scope of higher operators such as negation or  modals. In other words, appositive content necessarily projects.    The proposed analysis is embedded into a discourse model in which SPEECH CONTEXTS keep track of individual speech participants, their discourse commitments, and the context set (see Stalnaker 19&8, Kaplan 1989, Farkas & Bruce 2010). The analysis is fleshed out in UPDATE WITH SPEECH CONTEXTS, an update logic in which the formal mechanisms of interpreting formulas and restricting the context set are kept separate (see also AnderBois et al. 2010, Murray 2010, Bittner 2011).

description: The Theory of Everything 2 (TOE-2) explores the profound connections between quantum mechanics, time dimensions, life, death, and the evolution of the universe. Building upon TOE-1, this theory delves into the existence of white holes, their relationship with black holes, and the dynamic transformation of matter. TOE-2 further investigates the quantum fluctuations governing life’s emergence, the role of entropy, and the potential for reversing biological death through quantum interference. It proposes that life and death are intertwined with quantum potentials, influenced by time and space dimensions, and suggests a revolutionary understanding of the universe’s origin and ultimate fate, integrating quantum biology and cosmology.
The design and evaluation of a hierarchical OpenFlow SDN control plane
Creators: name: Koshibe, Ayaka
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This thesis investigates the design of hierarchical software-defined networks with improved scalability and service integration. Software Defined Networking (SDN) aims to bring flexibility and intelligence into networks by moving the network stack into logically centralized, programmable control planes. While distribution schemes and virtualization have addressed control plane scalability and network stack coexistence, they do so separately as unrelated subjects, and no unified solution exists. This work addresses the intersection of the two aspects through a little-explored control plane distribution method in which controllers are organized into a hierarchy based on service characteristics. Specifically, this thesis addresses 1) the evolution of SDN control plane architectures, focusing on distributed SDNs based on the OpenFlow SDN control protocol, and 2) the design, implementation, and evaluation of an architecture for a hierarchical OpenFlow control plane.    A layered model for control plane architecture is presented as a reference for the design. The widely-adopted Floodlight SDN framework is used to implement a prototype. The prototype is implemented as a series of modules that extend the base platform to use an OpenFlow-based inter-controller protocol. This protocol enables controllers to configure one another based on their positions in the hierarchy, enabling them to coordinate event handling by the network services at each controller.    This prototype is evaluated on the wired sandboxes of the ORBIT network testbed, with focus on control plane overhead and scalability. A custom OpenFlow client is used to measure processing overheads for several control plane topologies. Scalability is evaluated with respect to event processing rate at the lowest tier, and the amount of requests received at the upper tiers, of a sample hierarchy. Each controller involved in event handling is found to add at most about 0.46ms to overhead per packet, discounting network link delays. A comparison with the stock controller reveals that the control plane scales in event processing capacity with the number of data plane-facing controllers, and that the volume of requests at higer tiers are coupled to the types of events requested. We finish with remarks on potential future improvements to the control plane design.
Implementation and evaluation of the MobilityFirst protocol stack on software-defined network platforms
Creators: name: Krishnamoorthy, Aravind Narayanan
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This thesis presents the results of an experimental study aimed at implementing the MobilityFirst protocol stack on Software-Defined Network platforms. The MobilityFirst protocol involves a novel hybrid name/address routing procedure. Globally Unique Identifiers (GUIDs), which are host names, are first resolved by a Global Name Resolution Service (GNRS) into routable network addresses, which are then used by the routers to forward data. It also has support for enhanced network services using in-network storage and compute. These features have been implemented in an SDN using controller software that learns about the GUIDs and sets up MobilityFirst flows using VLAN tags. The prototype implementation has been done using the Floodlight controller and OpenFlow 1.0 switches. The Floodlight controller has been extended by adding modules that analyze MobilityFirst packets and set up corresponding flows. The prototype has been evaluated by conducting performance experiments on both the control plane and the data plane. Results show that the average processing time at the controller is of the order of 100μs and the data plane throughput for GUID forwarded traffic reaches 800Mbps for mega byte sized chunks. The experiments also highlight potential performance bottlenecks of SDN/OpenFlow networks.

Hegemonic ideas versus Institutional ethos in Korea's neoliberal reform during the late 1990s economic crisis
Creators: name: Kwon, Oh-Jung
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This study uses the historical case of the late 1990s economic crisis in Korea to explore the encounter between exogenous neoliberal doctrines and the endogenous "developmental" policy ethos. It investigates to what extent the neoliberal policy frame was institutionalized to change the developmental regulatory structure. The discourse of "moral hazard" mediated the acceptance of the harsh International Monetary Fund programs in such a way that neoliberal norms were espoused as the legitimate tools to cure "inefficient" developmental policy arrangements. The far-reaching restructuring aimed to make the system conform to the Western market economy model and was guided by major reform agendas such as small government, fiscal austerity, bank autonomy, strict capital adequacy, corporate transparency, capital liberalization, and labor flexibility.                Tracing the implementation of these agendas revealed two primary contexts for incomplete neoliberal transition under the developmental institutional legacies. First, pragmatic policy orientation framed market adjustment as a national project, empowering the government to achieve immediate economic and political stability. Financial reform to build market discipline led to more integrated authority and expanded the domains of supervision by the government. Pursuing small-government reform failed due to the organizational culture and strong policy leadership of the closed, rank-based bureaucracy. Second, the political and economic incentives to protect major large conglomerates (chaebols) and organized labor compromised the market adjustments. Reforming the structures and practices of the chaebols was limited because they were still the core players in the Korean economy. The initiative to promote labor flexibility deepened labor market segmentation, widening the gap among workers by firm size and unionization. The agenda of capital liberalization led to the successful implementation by making financial institutions more susceptible to the growing influence of foreign shareholders and investors. The Korean experience shows that highly legitimate neoliberal values in the policy discourse were rearticulated, compromised, or abandoned within the local policy institutions. The post-crisis reform entailed excessive government intrusion and the mobilization of passive private sectors with the persistence of the enduring developmental ethos to guide the government-market relationship.

Remarks
Shell medium to moderately large (maximum shell length 70 mm), broadly conical, with a low to moderate spire of concave profile. Shoulder with coarse nodules. Radular tooth (Fig. 52N) narrow and elongated with the anterior section slightly shorter than the posterior section. The tooth is serrated with 12–15 small denticles arranged in one single row, becoming two rows below. There is a small, rounded terminating cusp. Barb well marked. Blade rounded and short, covering about 35–40% of the anterior section of the tooth. Small basal spur pointing upwards on top of the base. Only one single live specimen has been sampled. In the phylogeny (Fig. 2), this species appears sister to C. fijisulcatus. However, in a phylogeny with a more extended sampling, it appears sister to a clade which includes several other species within Asprella such as Conus (Asprella) sulcatus Hwass in Bruguière, 1792, C. (A.) rolani R̂ckel, 1986, and the recently described C. (A.) neocostatus Olivera, Watkins, Puillandre & Tenorio, 2021.

Supply chain contracting as disagreement management
Creators: name: Laureij, Leon V.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: The formation and change of institutions in society has become a focal point of interest for institutional practitioners and researchers. Contracting for supply chain management (SCM) is a widespread institutional practice that implicates an increasing and diverse network of people, organizations, and organizing activities. It also informs how such a large-scale institution is formed through communication. This dissertation answers the question, How does the contracting process of SCM shape interaction into functional forms of communication that address problems and challenges in the pursuit of a supply chain’s technical and social goals? It addresses the practical problem that supply chain design is narrowly focused on material flows of goods, services, and funds. It advances the design stance toward communication (Aakhus & Jackson, 2005) to supplement and extend related theories: institutional theory, the communicative constitution of organizing, communication pragmatics, and design. So it aims to restore normative instrumentality in explaining the interactional construction of institutions, particularly of supply chain contracting.  To test and develop this communication-design view of contracting, a case study was conducted of the contracting process at a large public university in the northeast of the United States. Using ethnography and ethnomethodology, the process was reconstructed as a practice for designing and managing common institutional disagreements and arguments about contracts and contracting. Based on this normative-descriptive process reconstruction, a typology was derived of three distinct types of argumentative issues that practitioners order hierarchically for disagreement management. They use it for strategic management of issues about (a) (proposed) supply chain relationships and operations; (b) performances of contracting actions; and (c) institutional activities constitutive of individual actions and the overall practice.  The design issues typology is central to how contracting activity is ‘communication-design rationally’ constructed in response to and anticipation of (potential) problems in SCM. It facilitates identification of different types of process breakdowns, which were seen to either autocorrect the process, or to obstruct the institutional legitimacy and/or organizational effectiveness of contracting activity. The findings carry important implications for the design stance and related theories about institutional formation, and for the contracting practice of the research site and SCM at large.
The impacts of spatial and temporal variability of larval transport on the distribution and population dynamics of the sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus)
Creators: name: Law, Charles Grant
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This project focuses on the population dynamics of sea scallops in the Middle Atlantic Bight and Georges Bank/Southern New England regions. Most sea scallop biomass now occurs within the confines of large federally mandated closed areas and the fishery has moved toward a rotational harvesting strategy. With this dissertation we develop a biophysical model that enables the role of physical variability in this system, and how it interacts with life history processes to shape local and global population dynamics for sea scallops. The modeling effort will link hind-cast circulation simulations, an individual- based model for larval drift and an adult, size-structured, spatial population model. The results of these modeling efforts are compiled and interpreted in such a way as to be useful to managers of the sea scallop fishery. The final goal is to provide information about the impacts of environmental factors on sea scallop population dynamics so that the fishery can be managed proactively instead of reactively. Understanding the connections between sea scallop sub-populations, and how they vary from year to year, should be valuable in assessing the impacts of various real-world management strategies. The thesis is organized in four chapters: the first is an introduction, the second develops the dispersal kernels, the third integrates them into a metapopulation model, and the fourth describes the entire project in a style appropriate for a technical magazine.
