ABSTRACT This paper focusses on management control in public sector organizations (PSOs) through a backward‐looking reflexive analysis. The analysis identifies three themes—the importance of collaboration, the use of tools and models developed for the private sector and the limited use of management control information.

Perrin numbers that are palindromic concatenations of two repdigits
Let $ \{P_n\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Perrin numbers defined by $P_0=3$, $P_1=0$,$P_2=2$ and $P_{n+3}=P_{n+1}+P_{n}$ for all $n \geq 0$. In this paper, we determine all Perrin numbers that are palindromic concatenations of two repdigits.

The Effects of Nutrient Additions on Kokanee in Dworshak Reservoir, Idaho
ABSTRACT We investigated the effects of whole reservoir nitrogen (N) addition on kokanee growth in Dworshak Reservoir, Idaho. We hypothesized that N addition would improve the growth of kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) at a given level of abundance by increasing the availability of Daphnia, an important food source.

ABSTRACT As a periodization that is generally understood to refer to an era of Terrestrial relationships that developed with modernization and nuclearization, the Anthropocene cannot be applied simply to premodern histories and texts. However, it has introduced historians to geological periodization as a mode of describing periods of changed ...

Before It Was ‘New’: A Neglected History of Lived Experience–Led Criminal Justice
ABSTRACT A growing range of criminal justice initiatives are being shaped and delivered by people with lived experience, including peer mentoring, prisoner councils and policy advocacy roles. While often seen as recent innovations, we reveal a deeper, largely unacknowledged history dating back to at least the 19th century.

Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

Cullen and Woodall numbers in Padovan and Perrin sequences
Let $\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ and $\{R_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ denote the Padovan and Perrin sequences, both satisfying the recurrence $U_{n+3} = U_{n+1} + U_n$, but with initial values $P_0 = P_1 = P_2 = 1$ and $R_0 = 3$, $R_1 = 0$, $R_2 = 2$, respectively. A \textit{Cullen number} is a positive integer of the form $m\cdot 2^m + 1$ for some integer $m \ge 1$, while a \

On Brocard's problem with Padovan and Perrin numbers
The Padovan sequence $\{P_{m}\}_{m\ge 0}$ is a ternary recurrence sequence with companion polynomial $X^{3}-X-1$ and initial conditions $P_{0}=P_{1}=P_{2}=1$. The Perrin sequence $\{R_{m}\}_{m\ge 0}$ is defined by the same companion polynomial as the Padovan sequence, but has initial values $R_{0}=3$, $R_{1}=0$, and $R_{2}=2$.
