Flexibilization of the methodology of system development

Information and Software Technology, 1995
Abstract Many of the existing methods for the development of information systems have traditionally been seen as models with rigid phasing. This has mainly come about by the use that has been made of them; the freedom to suit methods to the circumstances has been present in some methods, but this has attracted little attention.

Flexibilization, Modernization and the Lisbon Strategy

International Journal of Comparative Labour Law and Industrial Relations, 2007
The ambition of the Lisbon strategy is to make Europe the most competitive region in the world by 2010. Halfway into the ten-year strategy this ambition appeared to be unlikely to be achieved. In response, the Commission relaunched the strategy in 2005.

A study of flexibilized epoxy systems

1962 EI Electrical Insulation Conference Materials and Application, 1962
This study was initiated as part of an overall program to develop some basic information regarding the properties of flexibilized epoxy compounds and to attempt to relate these properties to the composition of the compounds. An additional objective has been to establish the inter-relationships that may exist among these properties.

Organizing under Flexibilization

2018
This chapter depicts a case of worker unrest at a Mae Sot garment factory in order to consider how flexibilization, while dismantling traditional union structures, has permitted alternative modes of worker self-organization. The chapter contextualizes these dynamics within broader shifts in global labor regulation, where neoliberal restructuring has ...

Polyquinoxalines Containing Flexibilizing Groups in the Chains

Macromolecules, 1970
Abstract : Solution condensations of either 3,3',4,4'tetraaminodiphenyl sulfone or 3,3'4,4'-tetraaminobenzophenone in combination with various bisbenzils or glyoxals lead to high molecular weight polyquinoxalines. The effect of polymer structure on solubility, glass transition and decomposition temperatures was investigated. Phenylated polyquinoxalines

The Spatial Flexibilization of Border Control

2012
Classically, the border of the modern nation-state marked the locus of legitimate control of access to its territory. Since every border-crosser was checked there for valid travel documents, the border served as a physical barrier to all types of mobility (Torpey 1998; Zolberg 2006).

Flexibilization of Sequencing Priority Rules

1988
Priority rules can be defined as sequencing decision criteria according to which a job among those waiting for being processed by a machine is selected at the time a machine becomes free. Such scheduling procedures (e.g. “shortest-processing-time” or “minimum-slack-time” rules) are extensively discussed in the heuristic scheduling literature.

Some New Flexibilizations of Bregman Divergences and Their Asymptotics

2017
Ordinary Bregman divergences (distances) OBD are widely used in statistics, machine learning, and information theory (see e.g. [5, 18]; [4, 6, 7, 14, 15, 16, 22, 23, 25]). They can be flexibilized in various different ways. For instance, there are the Scaled Bregman divergences SBD of Stummer [20] and Stummer and Vajda [21] which contain both the OBDs ...
