The organisational performance of national disability sport organisations during a time of austerity: a resource dependence theory perspective
(2017-10-19)Austerity measures implemented by the UK Coalition government have had a negative impact on disabled people. This article utilises the resource dependence theory to explore the challenges national disability sport organisations ... -
Organization culture types and the replication of transferred human resource management practices in multinational subsidiaries in Nigeria
(2023-03-21)Purpose: Given that institutional and cultural factors affect the transfer of HRM practices between multinational companies (MNCs) and their subsidiaries, the paper set out to investigate the explanatory mechanism for the ... -
The Organization of Knowledge Sharing at the Colorado Music Festival
(2012)Knowledge sharing is a challenging process, especially in seasonal organizational settings, which are characterized by periodic and repetitive patterns in terms of business activity. As the literature provides little insight ... -
Organization of the information flow in the perception-action loop of evolved agents
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2004)Sensor evolution in nature aims at improving the acquisition of information from the environment and is intimately related with selection pressure towards adaptivity and robustness. Recent work in the area aims at studying ... -

An organizational study into the concept of automation in a safety critical socio-technical system
(Springer Nature, 2013) -
An organizational study into the concept of “automation policy” in a safety critical socio-technical system.
(2013)Although automation has been introduced in all areas of public life, what seems to be missing is a reflection at the organizational or societal level about a policy of automation. By this we intend appropriate declarations ... -
Organizing for thoughtful food: A meshwork approach
(2020-08-08)This paper provides an alternative narrative for organizing food systems. It introduces meshwork as a novel theoretical lens to examine the ontological assumptions underlying the shadow and informal dynamics of organizing ... -
An orientation bias in observations of submillimetre galaxies
(2022-07-28)Recent high-resolution interferometric images of submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) reveal fascinatingly complex morphologies. This raises a number of questions: how does the relative orientation of a galaxy affect its observed ... -
Orientation effects in quasar spectra: the broad- and narrow-line regions
(2011-03)We use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, along with the NRAO VLA Sky Survey and the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey to define a sample of 746 radio-loud quasars and measure their 330 MHz-1.4 GHz spectral indexes. Following ... -
Origin of color gradients in elliptical galaxies
(2000-05)The origin of color gradients in elliptical galaxies is examined by comparing model gradients with those observed in the Hubble Deep Field. The models are constructed so as to reproduce color gradients in local elliptical ... -
The Origin of Elements from Carbon to Uranium
(2020-09-15)To reach a deeper understanding of the origin of elements in the periodic table, we construct Galactic chemical evolution (GCE) models for all stable elements from C (A = 12) to U (A = 238) from first principles, i.e., ... -
The origin of elements: the need for UV spectra
(2022-07-23)Thanks to the long-term collaborations between nuclear and astrophysics, we have good understanding on stellar nucleosynthesis, except for the elements around Ti and some neutron-capture elements. From the comparison between ... -
The origin of elliptical galaxies inferred from their metallicity gradients
(2003-04)We simulate the chemodynamical evolution of elliptical galaxies using our GRAPE-SPH code. We succeed in reproducing the observed variety of the radial metallicity gradients, from which we discuss the origin of elliptical galaxies. -
The Origin of Helium-Rich Subdwarf O Stars
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008)The origin of helium-rich subdwarf O stars (He-sdO) is still unclear. Significant progress has been made recently in placing them in the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram. However, the question of their progenitors is still ...
