Construction productivity and global inequality
WIDER Working Paper, 2023wo well established stylized facts of economic development are a strong correlation between investment and income, and large differences in investment rates across countries. Construction is the largest component of investment. This paper examines the implications of heterogeneity in construction productivity on cross-country income disparity.

On the Reduced Product Construction
Canadian Mathematical Bulletin, 1996AbstractUnder certain conditions the reduced product space JX of a space X has the same homotopy type as ΩΣX, the loop-space on the suspension of X. Several proofs can be found in the literature. The original proof [6] made unnecessarily strong assumptions.

Co-constructing the Brand and the Product
International Journal of Innovation Management, 2009How do brand and product development processes interact? How do brands and branding strategies influence product development? Moreover, does a branding strategy facilitate or impede the development process? So far, research on product development has focused on the development of new products and services, whereas research on marketing and especially ...

Construction of k-matchings in graph products
The Art of Discrete and Applied Mathematics, 2022Summary: A \(k\)-matching \(M\) of a graph \(G = (V,E)\) is a subset \(M \subseteq E\) such that each connected component in the subgraph \(F = (V,M)\) of \(G\) is either a single-vertex graph or \(k\)-regular, i.e., each vertex has degree \(k\).

Electronic procurement of construction products
International Journal of Services Technology and Management, 2002The advent of e-commerce is revolutionising the way individuals and businesses procure goods and services. There has been tremendous growth in the so-called "Business-to-Customer" (B2C) transactions, with the most significant impact on business processes expected to be made by "Business-to- Business" (B2B) transactions. While other industry sectors are

How to construct a product of a‐frames
Mathematical Logic Quarterly, 2012AbstractIt is shown how, under certain circumstances and within Bishop‐style constructive mathematics, one can construct a product of two a‐frames (the structures underlying the constructive theory of apartness on frames).

Constructing a large product with jam
1997In early 1996 Sybase undertook a project to replace their build system with one centered around a freely available make(1) alternative called Jam. This paper discusses the scope of the project, the problems encountered and their solutions, and the current results.

Nonlinear Codes: The Product Construction
IEEE Transactions on Communications, 2007The standard product construction is discussed with respect to nonlinear codes. Thus, so-called nonlinear product codes are obtained that are better than linear product codes of similar length and code rate, and at the same time, amenable for encoding/decoding.

Construction Productivity Improvement
Journal of the Construction Division, 1981The results are presented of a survey of the Engineering News Record 400 largest contractors to obtain their views on where productivity improvement would most help. Data were obtained regarding business aspects of each operation, with the contractors' opinions on potential areas for productivity improvement in the office and in the field.
