Deepening the real options debate: Real options as dynamic optimization

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Is real option theory useful for management research? This topic was hotly debated two decades ago. Real options were said to be inapplicable to management research and to lack conceptual distinctiveness. Whereas responses to the claim about the non‐distinctiveness of real options were disparate, the concern about the theory's

An Ecological Systems Analysis of University Students' ChatGPT Use in Higher Education

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Educational technology research has largely conceptualised students' ChatGPT adoption through individual‐level cognitive or integrity frameworks, leaving multilevel systemic conditions undertheorised. This study applies Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory (EST) to examine how students at a research‐intensive university in Istanbul ...

A Novel Approach to Energy Management in Electric Steelworks

steel research international, EarlyView.
Feed‐forward neural networks are exploited to estimate electric energy consumptions of the electric arc furnace and ladle furnace processes. The models are used to optimize production schedule so that more energy intensive grades are produced when the cost of energy is lower.

A Novel Three‐Way Decision‐Based Approach for Environmental, Social, and Governance Performance Evaluation of Power Industry Under Pythagorean Fuzzy Multi‐Attribute Decision‐Making Environment

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A novel method for evaluating the ESG performance level of power companies is proposed. The PFS‐FWZIC method is employed to calculate the indicator weights, avoiding the inconsistency issues associated with traditional methods. An ESG performance evaluation index system tailored for the power industry is constructed.
