Completion-time-driven scheduling for uplink NOMA-enabled wireless networks

, 2020
Efficient scheduling policy is crucial in wireless networks due to delay-sensitivity of many emerging applications. In this work, we consider a joint user pairing and scheduling (UPaS) scheme for multi-carrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA ...

Heuristic algorithms for the optimization of total weighted completion time for asynchronous transmission in a packet data transmission system [PDF]

, 2014
In this paper, the minimization of total weighted completion time (total cost) for asynchronous transmission in distributed systems is discussed. Special attention has been paid to the problem of message scheduling on the sender side. Messages to be sent

Strategic Implications of Mandatory ESG Assurance and Its Impact on Competitive Advantage: Evidence From European Market Reactions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The EU has recently introduced, for the first time, a market‐wide mandatory assurance requirement for sustainability reporting under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The directive mandates that affected firms obtain independent third‐party assurance for their ESG reports. This study examines the equity market's reaction

Discursive Governance and Development Goals: A Performative Theory of Corporate Purpose in Sustainability Discourse

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study theorises and empirically tests performative purpose alignment theory (PPAT), which conceptualises corporate purpose as a performative artefact materialised through discursive and multimodal signals. To operationalise this, we introduced the SDG–Purpose Alignment Index (SPAI), a computational construct that quantifies the thematic ...

Strategic Approaches to ESG Reporting: Analysing ESG Disclosures of Listed Companies

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study adopts an exploratory approach to examine how firms communicate strategic orientation through ESG disclosures. Using a validated dictionary of exploration and exploitation language, we analyse 278 ESG reports from all UAE‐listed companies between 2020 and 2023, classifying ESG disclosures as exploration‐dominant, exploitation ...
