The Indispensable University

The Indispensable University

Eugene P. Trani; Robert D. Holsworth; Timothy M. Kaine

Rowman Littlefield Education
2013
nidottu
The Indispensable University describes the innovative transformation of institutions of higher education (HEIs) across the world, in response to the emerging realities of the twenty-first century global knowledge-based economy, as well as describes how HEIs are defining many of today's economic realities on a regional level. HEIs continue to drive economic development through their traditional roles of purchaser, employer, real estate developer, workforce developer and community developer. But these roles now must be executed more strategically and collaboratively. Also, the twenty-first century economy offers universities unique opportunities to generate the intellectual and financial capital that drives emerging knowledge-based industries. Case studies are drawn from: urban America; rural America; Europe; the Middle East; and emerging countries. Some of the topics covered include the following: the role of university presidents as change leaders; the relationship between higher education institutions and the political leadership of cities, states, and nations; successful models of partnerships between higher education and the private sector; and future challenges and opportunities facing the modern university.

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

Barry J Doyle; David S Molony; Michael T Walsh; Timothy M McGloughlin

Nova Science Publishers Inc
2010
nidottu
Advancements in medical imaging technology over recent years have revolutionised the management and treatment of all aspects of health care. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have led to the development of reconstruction software that allows internal bodily structures to be easily visualised in 3D. These developments have led to improved surgical planning and treatment. The assessment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) has benefited greatly from these advancements. There is currently much debate as when to surgically repair these life-threatening dilations of the aorta and 3D reconstructions of AAAs have led to many new diagnostic tools and rupture-prediction indices. This book explores recent developments in this area.

Last-mile Supply Network Distribution in Omni-Channel Retailing

Last-mile Supply Network Distribution in Omni-Channel Retailing

Stanley Frederick W. T. Lim; Elliot Rabinovich; Dale S. Rogers; Timothy M. Lasester

now publishers Inc
2016
nidottu
Omni-channel retailing (OCR) strategies have recently emerged as a powerful engine of growth in the retail industry. The goal is to provide consumers with a seamless and consistent shopping experience across different channels and devices. Success in implementing OCR strategies depends on sophisticated compromises between fulfilment responsiveness and product variety across different product types, consumer segments, and shopping occasions. Failures in OCR strategies to optimize the trade-offs between responsiveness and variety are rooted in a poor understanding of how OCR strategies should build on last-mile supply network (LMSN) distribution configurations.This book addresses this issue by developing a typology of LMSN distribution configurations in OCR. Typologies are useful for four reasons:(1) They provide a mechanism for incorporating holistic principles of inquiry into organizational research.(2) They explicitly define patterns of constructs that determine dependent variables while enabling researchers to move beyond traditional linear theories.(3) They provide a means to incorporate equifinality.(4) They establish connections between the findings of various studies.The existing literature covers a number of last-mile typological systems in the supply chain. However, these typologies do not provide a satisfactory characterization of various forms of LMSN distribution configurations in OCR and their unique structure, product/order and information flow, service architecture, and relational and governance aspects.To address these deficiencies in the literature, this typology updates the linearly “chain-centric” extended supply chain models developed previously and provides a framework that integrates multiple theoretical domains and terminologies that have been used disjointedly to describe the various forms of LMSN distribution configurations in OCR. After an introduction, Section 2 presents a review of the literature. Section 3 describes the methodology used to identify the different configuration dimensions and provides definitions of the terminologies. Section 4 describes the LMSN configuration-based typology while Section 5 presents LMSN evolution patterns through the discussion of example cases. Section 6 highlights key insights derived from the typology, elaborates on academic implications, and suggests some research extensions. Section 7 discusses the managerial implications and concludes.

Ivory is big business, and in some parts of Africa elephants have been hunted almost to extinction in the quest for it. The losses to African economies have been catastrophic. Now there is an international ban on the trade and conservation is. the principal goal. This should be a matter for rejoicing, but nothing is quite so simple. The authors of this book have looked at the overall statistics, including those for countries where the elephant population is stable. They have considered the multiplicity of economic and social functions fulfilled by ensuring that elephant herds survive, tourism, a variety of ecological purpose. and, finally, as a source of ivory. They show how the careful management of elephants as a resource can best serve African interests. This book is at the cutting edge of economic thinking and provides a model for the consideration of the difficult relationship between people and wildlife. Originally published in 19990
