Failure in Motion: A Framework for Capability Erosion and Institutional Dysfunction

Strategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on the literature on capability erosion and institutional dysfunction (ID), this study develops a conceptual framework that sheds new light on how the interaction between capability erosion and ID creates conditions for business failure across borders. By articulating two dimensions of heterogeneous capability and resource erosion (i.e.

Computing Hierarchical Finite State Controllers with Classical Planning [PDF]

, 2018
[EN] Finite State Controllers (FSCs) are an effective way to compactly represent sequential plans. By imposing appropriate conditions on transitions, FSCs can also represent generalized plans (plans that solve a range of planning problems from a given ...

Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fundamental Principles, Diverse Applications, and the Latest Technological Frontiers

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).

Active Electromagnetic Interference Suppression for MRI and Proton Resonance Frequency Shift Thermometry During MRI‐Guided Microwave Ablation

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a software‐based active electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression (AES) framework on whole‐body multi‐channel MRI systems for reliable MRI and MR thermometry during MRI‐guided microwave ablation (MWA). Methods In addition to primary imaging coils, an unloaded standard body array coil was positioned outside the imaging ...

From the brink of extinction to regulation: northern Europe's white‐tailed eagles now face density dependence and climate constraints after rapid population growth

Oikos, EarlyView.
Population growth reflects the combined influence of regulation and density‐independent factors operating through demographic processes. Under exceptional circumstances (e.g. populations recovering from near‐extinction), growth may initially be weakly regulated but typically slows as negative density dependence (NDD) sets in.

Generalized planning as heuristic search: A new planning search-space that leverages pointers over objects [PDF]

[EN] Planning as heuristic search is one of the most successful approaches to classical planning but unfortunately, it does not trivially extend to Generalized Planning (GP); GP aims to compute algorithmic solutions that are valid for a set of classical ...

Governing the Third Sector in the Gulf: A Systematic Review of Emergence, Capacity, and Policy Dynamics in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Oman

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The third sector has emerged as an increasingly important actor in governance, social development, and public service delivery across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), yet scholarly understanding of its evolution, institutional capacity, and policy role remains fragmented and uneven.

Identifying knowledge barriers to agroforestry adoption and co‐designing solutions to them

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Compared to monocultures, agroforestry can promote biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and climate resilience, whilst maintaining or enhancing production and profits. Despite this, uptake in temperate regions remains low. Knowledge gaps amongst land managers are a primary barrier to uptake, but little is known about which aspects of ...

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...
