Buyer‐seller relationship development episodes: theories and methods

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Purpose For the benefit of those who want to address gaps in our understanding of business relationships, this paper seeks to conceptually frame investigation into critical interaction episodes that fundamentally strengthen or fatally weaken relationship development. It also considers the importance of non‐critical episodes in business relationships. Particular attention is paid to the enduring yet frequently modified critical incident technique associated with Flanagan. Design/methodology/approach Episode relationship theory, the qualitative/quantitative debate, and the critical incident technique (CIT) literature are selectively reviewed and critically assessed. Findings First, because business relationships tend to persist, episode research must advance beyond relationship dissolution studies and progress into investigations of how different types of interactions change relationships. New types of episodes need to be studied, such as the generative, degenerative, and neutral episodes discussed here. Also, functionally distinct characteristic and non‐critical episodes are conceptualized. Second, the methods review suggests that useful qualitative methods deserve more attention. Third, though CIT research is prevalent in the marketing literature, it is at present incompletely adapted to business marketing research and needs development along the lines suggested in this article. Originality/value The interaction perspective on business relationships is given a dynamic framework at the interaction episode level while keeping the connection to the more macro relationship development models that conceptualize relationship states and processes.

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

This study aims to analyze the income, added value and business sustainability strategy of boneless milkfish processing. The method used in this research is a case study. The research location was chosen purposively at “SMEs 88 Marijo”, Pinrang Regency, South Sulawesi Province. The consideration is that “SMEs 88 Marijo” has been operating for more than 10 years and is one of the milk processing businesses that have SNI certificates. Data were collected in December 2018 - April 2019 and analyzed descriptively qualitatively and quantitatively. The results showed that revenue from “SMEs 88 Marijo” in 2018 amounted to Rp 343,341,626. The highest income received came from boneless milkfish products amounting to Rp.299,537,126. The highest added value is obtained from “milkfish amplang” products, while the lowest value-added is boneless milkfish products. The ratio between total revenue and total costs (R/C ratio) is 1.22. R/C > 1 means that the fish processing business is profitable, so it is feasible to be developed. The priority of sustainability strategy is: (1) Utilizing the potential of raw materials and waste through production diversification to create added value and increase revenue. (2) Increase competitiveness by applying GMP and SSOP to maintain the quality standard of SNI standard products. (3) Implement financial management effectively and manage business administration in a disciplined and accountable manner.

광고시장은 매체의 변화에 크게 영향을 받는 산업이다. 대표적인 광고 매체인 TV는 디지털방송이 정착되면서 수동적인 콘텐츠소비 매체에서 방송프로그램뿐만 아니라 다양한 데이터서비스들을 운영할 수 있는 플랫폼으로 발전하였다. 이런 변화는 시청자가 광고를 포함한 TV 콘텐츠를 능동적으로 소비할 수 있는 환경이 조성되었음을 의미하기 때문에 방송 산업은 광고 시장과 데이터서비스를 연계한 성장 전략을 고민할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 10초 이내라는 짧은 광고 시간과 TV 화면의 1/4 미만이라는 부족한 공간의 문제를 갖고 있는 ID 광고의 부가정보를 제공하는 디지털방송 데이터서비스를 설계하였다. 구체적으로, 데이터서비스의 사용자 시나리오와 인터페이스를 설계하고, ID 광고의 유형과 유형별 부가정보를 정의하여 그 부가정보를 데이터서비스에 공급하는 국제 디지털방송 표준 DVB 기반의 방법을 개발하였다.
How robust are multilingual information retrieval systems?

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The results of information retrieval evaluations are often difficult to apply to practical challenges. Recent research interest in the robustness of information systems tries to facilitate the application of research results for practical environments. This paper analyzes a large amount of evaluation experiments from the Cross Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF). Robustness can be interpreted as stressing the importance of difficult topics and is usually measured with the geometric mean of the topic results. Our analysis shows that a small decrease of performance of bi- and multi-lingual retrieval goes along with a tremendous difference between the geometric mean and the average of topics. Consequently, robustness is an important issue especially for cross-language retrieval system evaluation.
Gender (In)Consistent Communication via Social Media and Hireability: An Exploratory Study

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Using social media in employee selection processes is relatively new behavior that raises many important questions. Although managers report using sites like Facebook to review applicants, little is known about how these sites influence assessments of those candidates. This exploratory study reports on an experiment designed to evaluate competing hypotheses regarding (in)consistent gender norm-based communication on Facebook and subsequent attraction and hiring decisions. All participants were required to have been responsible for actual hiring decisions during their careers. Surprisingly, results are in contrast to research on the selection process and show that feminine-style communication on Facebook is perceived as most attractive and hirable. However, masculine communication is perceived as least attractive and hirable. This effect was consistent regardless of applicant gender. Practical implications, strengths, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.
Role of symmetry in driven propulsion at low Reynolds number

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We theoretically and experimentally investigate low-Reynolds-number propulsion of geometrically achiral planar objects that possess a dipole moment and that are driven by a rotating magnetic field. Symmetry considerations (involving parity, $\widehat{P}$, and charge conjugation, $\widehat{C}$) establish correspondence between propulsive states depending on orientation of the dipolar moment. Although basic symmetry arguments do not forbid individual symmetric objects to efficiently propel due to spontaneous symmetry breaking, they suggest that the average ensemble velocity vanishes. Some additional arguments show, however, that highly symmetrical ($\widehat{P}$-even) objects exhibit no net propulsion while individual less symmetrical ($\widehat{C}\widehat{P}$-even) propellers do propel. Particular magnetization orientation, rendering the shape $\widehat{C}\widehat{P}$-odd, yields unidirectional motion typically associated with chiral structures, such as helices. If instead of a structure with a permanent dipole we consider a polarizable object, some of the arguments have to be modified. For instance, we demonstrate a truly achiral ($\widehat{P}$- and $\widehat{C}\widehat{P}$-even) planar shape with an induced electric dipole that can propel by electro-rotation. We thereby show that chirality is not essential for propulsion due to rotation-translation coupling at low Reynolds number.
Role of nitric oxide in the development of tolerance to diazepam-induced motor impairment in mice.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Chronic treatment with the benzodiazepines is well known to produce tolerance, which has been extensively documented to be attributed to modifications in the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic neurotransmission. However, literature data have also suggested the participation of different neurotransmitter systems, including glutamatergic, in benzodiazepine tolerance. The purpose of the present study was to determine the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the development of tolerance to the motor dysfunction induced by chronic administration of diazepam. The motor performance was assessed on the 1st and 10th day of experiment, using the rotarod and chimney tests in mice. Treatment of animals with both non-selective NO synthase (NOS) inhibitors: N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), N(G)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG) and selective NOS inhibitor: 7-nitroindazole was able to prevent the development of tolerance to the motor impairing effect of diazepam. Moreover, administration of L-arginine, a NO precursor, facilitated the development of diazepam-induced tolerance in rotarod test. These findings suggest that NO may be involved, at least in part, in the tolerance to the motor dysfunction, developed during the chronic administration of diazepam in mice.
Multiple forms of uridine kinase in normal and neoplastic rat liver

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Two species of uridine kinase with molecular weights of approximately 120000 (I) and 30000 (II) have been identified in the rat liver system. Species I predominates in the 7-day postnatal and adult rat liver and increases in the regenerating remnant of the latter after partial hepatectomy; the concentration of species II is low in these tissues. Species I also predominates in the slow-growing hepatomas 5123D and 7800. In contrast, II is the predominant form in the foetal rat liver and accounts for 40% of the total activity in the rapidly growing Novikoff ascites hepatoma. In contrast to species II, which was stable, species I was inactivated by preincubation for 30min at 37°C, before assay at 23°C.
Cooperative Reflection and Synchronization Design for Distributed Multiple-RIS Communications

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

To reap the promised gain achieved by distributed reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs)-enhanced communications in a wireless network, timing synchronization among these metasurfaces is an essential prerequisite in practice. This paper proposes a unified framework for the joint estimation of the unknown timing offsets and the RIS channel parameters, as well as the design of cooperative reflection and synchronization algorithm for the distributed multiple-RIS communication. Considering that RIS is usually a passive device with limited capability of signal processing, the individual timing offset and channel gains of each hop of the RIS links cannot be directly estimated. To make the estimation tractable, we propose to estimate the cascaded channels and timing offsets jointly by deriving a maximum likelihood estimator. Furthermore, we theoretically characterize the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) to evaluate the accuracy of this estimator. By using the proposed estimator and the derived CRLBs, an efficient resynchronization algorithm is devised jointly at the RISs and the destination to compensate the multiple timing offsets. Based on the majorization-minimization framework, the proposed algorithm admits semi-closed and closed form solutions for the RIS reflection matrices and the timing offset equalizer, respectively. Simulation results verify that our theoretical analysis well matches the numerical tests and validate the effectiveness of the proposed resynchronization algorithm.
IT assets, IT infrastructure performance and IT capability: a framework for e-government

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Purpose Although government investments in IT is growing, it is unclear how and what kind of IT investments lead to desirable E-Government performance. Several studies pertaining to the business value of IT have developed and tested frameworks for IT infrastructure, IT capability and business performance. However, E-Government-related IT investment outcomes cannot be measured by profits and hence requires a separate investigation. E-Government research using theoretical approach has been reported as very scarce in previous studies. This research aims to bridge the gap by developing a model to study IT infrastructure capability and E-Government performance in the emerging context of new IT service delivery models. Design/methodology/approach This paper follows a case study method in this research with a priori conceptual framework. The data were collected following an interview method used for deductive theory building. Findings The results identified a positive relationship between IT assets and IT infrastructure performance in the presence of service delivery channels and an anticipation of a positive influence of infrastructure performance variables on IT capability which in turn shows positive effect on E-Government performance. Research limitations/implications Because the study followed a qualitative approach, the findings from this study are not useful for statistical generalization. However, the analytical framework provides sufficient ground to test E-Government performance. Practical implications The study provides insights in the choice of IT infrastructure elements fitting an E-Government strategy. Social implications This study provides an integrated framework for measuring E-Government performance, thereby making deployment of IT infrastructure accountable both in terms of IT performance and IT capability. This in turn will lead to improvement in citizen services. Originality/value This paper builds on the existing literature on IT assets, IT infrastructure performance, IT infrastructure capability and applies to the E-Government domain.
On the delayed self-heterodyne interferometric technique for determining the linewidth of fiber lasers

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The delayed self-heterodyne interferometric technique, first proposed in the context of semiconductor lasers, has been commonly used for over 20 years in the determination of the optical linewidth of lasers. We examine this technique in the light of recent work on fiber lasers, and point out further constraints in the applicability of these measurements. An approximate but simple and intuitive expression is provided for assessing the self-heterodyne technique when applied to fiber lasers.
Object-Based Spatial Information Storage for WEBGIS

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Based on object-based storage (OBS), we propose the design of a new WEBGIS architecture. We describe the improvements of the management and share of mass spatial information, as well as performance comparison with traditional storage technology. Object-based storage has the advantages of scalability, native security and dynamic reconfiguration. Integrated object-based storage technology, WEBGIS could provide high scalability and native security. Furthermore, with the unified abstract object interface and intelligent OSD, both WEBGIS and the storage device get more intelligence that facilitate not only the management and share of mass spatial information,but also various GIS applications.
Role of Antioxidant Enzymes in Bacterial Resistance to Organic Acids

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

Growth in aerobic environments has been shown to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to cause oxidative stress in most organisms. Antioxidant enzymes (i.e., superoxide dismutases and hydroperoxidases) and DNA repair mechanisms provide protection against ROS. Acid stress has been shown to be associated with the induction of Mn superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) in Lactococcus lactis and Staphylococcus aureus. However, the relationship between acid stress and oxidative stress is not well understood. In the present study, we showed that mutations in the gene coding for MnSOD (sodA) increased the toxicity of lactic acid at pH 3.5 in Streptococcus thermophilus. The inclusion of the iron chelators 2,2′-dipyridyl (DIP), diethienetriamine-pentaacetic acid (DTPA), and O-phenanthroline (O-Phe) provided partial protection against 330 mM lactic acid at pH 3.5. The results suggested that acid stress triggers an iron-mediated oxidative stress that can be ameliorated by MnSOD and iron chelators. These findings were further validated in Escherichia coli strains lacking both MnSOD and iron SOD (FeSOD) but expressing a heterologous MnSOD from S. thermophilus. We also found that, in E. coli, FeSOD did not provide the same protection afforded by MnSOD and that hydroperoxidases are equally important in protecting the cells against acid stress. These findings may explain the ability of some microorganisms to survive better in acidified environments, as in acid foods, during fermentation and accumulation of lactic acid or during passage through the low pH of the stomach.
Discovery of an Orally Efficacious MYC Inhibitor for Liver Cancer Using a GNMT-Based High-Throughput Screening System and Structure–Activity Relationship Analysis

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Glycine-N-methyl transferase (GNMT) downregulation results in spontaneous hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Overexpression of GNMT inhibits the proliferation of liver cancer cell lines and prevents carcinogen-induced HCC, suggesting that GNMT induction is a potential approach for anti-HCC therapy. Herein, we used Huh7 GNMT promoter-driven screening to identify a GNMT inducer. Compound K78 was identified and validated for its induction of GNMT and inhibition of Huh7 cell growth. Subsequently, we employed structure-activity relationship analysis and found a potent GNMT inducer, K117. K117 inhibited Huh7 cell growth in vitro and xenograft in vivo. Oral administration of a dosage of K117 at 10 mpk (milligrams per kilogram) can inhibit Huh7 xenograft in a manner equivalent to the effect of sorafenib at a dosage of 25 mpk. A mechanistic study revealed that K117 is an MYC inhibitor. Ectopic expression of MYC using CMV promoter blocked K117-mediated MYC inhibition and GNMT induction. Overall, K117 is a potential lead compound for HCC- and MYC-dependent cancers.

Patients treated with further preparations zinc and donators sulfhydryl groups, zinc contents, thiol compounds, and superoxide dismutase activity have increased significantly.Conclusions. In patients with acute cerebral insufficiency, there is a significant interrelated decrease in the content of zinc, thiol compounds and superoxide dismutase, which are progressing. The most tendency to decrease these indicators is observed in patients with alcoholic psychopathological reactions. The use of zinc and donators sulfhydryl groups increased the pool of serum zinc, triglycerides and the activity of superoxide dismutase.
Temperature measurement of shock heated solid explosives by time resolved infrared radiometry. [PBX-9404]

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Experiments utilizing infrared radiometry have yielded measurements of the time resolved temperature of shocked explosive PBX-9404. The results on bare charges indicate the presence of hot spots whose temperature varies strongly with pressure. Interpretation of the results on bare charges is consistent with current theories of heterogeneous initiation. Also, several experiments with transparent, impedance matched overlays were successful in measuring the temperature of the explosive as the pressure at the interface evolved.
