Does Climate Risk Affect Employment Decisions? International Evidence

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effect of climate risk on corporate employment decisions. Using a large sample from 41 countries, we find a positive association between climate risk and underinvestment in labor, notably manifesting as excessive employee layoffs.

Multilevel structured low-density parity-check codes for AWGN and Rayleigh channels

open access: yes, 2010
We propose a novel class of protograph low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes having a combinatorial rather than a random structure, which are termed multilevel-structured (MLS) LDPC codes. It is demonstrated that they posses a strikingly simple structure

Rate Compatible Protocol for Information Reconciliation: An application to QKD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Information Reconciliation is a mechanism that allows to weed out the discrepancies between two correlated variables. It is an essential component in every key agreement protocol where the key has to be transmitted through a noisy channel.

The Evolution and Integration of ESG Reporting: A Framework for Sustainable Business Accountability

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how multinational corporations incorporate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting frameworks to foster trust, enhance legitimacy, and move beyond mere symbolic disclosure. A qualitative comparison of Microsoft and Unilever from 2020 to 2023 assesses how both firms integrate leading standards, including GRI ...

International Evidence on How Investors Value Environmental Innovation: Non‐Pecuniary Investor Preferences or Risk Mitigation?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study how environmental innovation shapes investor expectations. We propose two mechanisms through which sustained improvements in environmental innovation may influence these expectations: non‐pecuniary investor preferences and risk mitigation.

Reliability-Ratio Based Weighted Bit-Flipping Decoding for Low-Density Parity Check Codes

open access: yes, 2004
A novel reliability ratio based weighted bit-flipping decoding scheme is proposed for low-density parity-check codes. A coding gain of 1 dB is achieved in comparison to the weighted bit-flipping scheme, when communicating over an AWGN channel, while ...

CONSTRUCTION OF REGULAR LDPC LIKE CODES BASED ON FULL RANK CODES AND THEIR ITERATIVE DECODING USING A PARITY CHECK TREE [PDF]

open access: yesICTACT Journal on Communication Technology, 2011
Low density parity check (LDPC) codes are capacity-approaching codes, which means that practical constructions exist that allow the noise threshold to be set very close to the theoretical Shannon limit for a memory less channel.

Buyer–Supplier Relationships in the Modern Supply Chain: Exploring Professionals' Perspectives on Power Balance in Pursuit of Decarbonization

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Decarbonization is a contemporary and critical organizational agenda for meeting climate change goals, but little is known about how strategies deployed to meet decarbonization goals interact with employees' agentic capacities and coping strategies, particularly in the context of supply chain pressures and power dynamics.

A construction of the high-rate regular quasi-cyclic LDPC codes

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2019
In this paper, a scheme to construct the high-rate regular quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes is developed based on the finite geometry low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes.

Contracting as Sensemaking Infrastructure: Enacting Sustainability Strategy in Business‐to‐Business Relationships

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firms articulate sustainability objectives but depend on suppliers and business partners to enact them. As commitments cross organizational and professional boundaries, their meaning may fragment even when parties agree in principle.
