Effective identification of key user knowledge sources which are able to match with the innovation task of the enterprise can reduce the cost of enterprise search and evaluation, enhance the participation willingness, and promote innovation performance in crowdsourcing innovation mode. Based on the bilateral perspective of both enterprises and users, the present paper proposes the framework to identify...
In recent years, equity incentive is becoming a hot spot of research at home and abroad. This article reviews previous classic research on equity incentive after releasing The Listed Companies Incentive Management Approach in 2006 in China. By classifying the literature in firm level and individual level and summarizing the effects of equity incentives on firm performance, earnings management, dividend...
This study adopts the method of factor analysis, and focuses on the asset quality of 16 listed banks in 2009–2013.This paper chooses 13 major indexes from four aspects: assets structure ratio, asset management effectiveness, profitability and risk to make the comprehensive analysis, and calculates F value of the quality of listed bank assets. By comparing the F value, we find that the scores of state-owned...
This paper is mainly to examine the economic consequences of the financial restatement based on the auditor's perspective. We find that auditors tend to issued more severe financial audit restatement opinions to companies which made financial restatement and the more risks inherent in the nature of the financial restatement, the more severe audit opinions are likely to make. These results indicate...
This paper attempts to investigate the effect of industry specialization on the relationship between client importance and auditor reporting decision based on microcosmic perspective. The results show that auditors are less likely to issue severe opinion for the high risk client as client importance increases. And similarly , for the auditor without industry specialization, the relationship between...
On account of the resource-based theory, 88 new ventures have been sampled for the empirical research, the three relations of the government intervention, resource acquisition and new venture performance are tested, thus draws a conclusion: (1) the influence of the government intervention on the new venture performance is not significant; (2) the new venture's resource acquisition and its performance...
This paper focuses on studies of the effects of information trading on stock excess returns. We try to illustrate the information trading effect on the stock excess returns with a sample of 176 stocks on Shenzhen GEM. Using empirical tests, the results show that there is a positive and statistically significant correlation between information trading and stock excess returns.
The best known analyses to date of nuclear proliferation networks are qualitative analyses of networks consisting of just hundreds of nodes and edges. We propose SPINN — a computational framework that performs the following tasks. Starting from existing lists of sanctioned entities, SPINN automatically builds a highly augmented network by scraping connections between individuals, companies, and government...
Twitter generates the majority of its revenue from advertising. Third parties usually pay to have their products advertised on Twitter through tweets, accounts and trends. However, spammers can use Sybil accounts (fake accounts) to advertise and avoid paying for it. Sybil accounts are highly active on Twitter performing advertising campaigns to serve their clients. They aggressively try to reach a...
The Electricity directives provided a general framework for the integration of electricity markets but unclear on the means to achieve full integration. Regional Initiatives were thought as a bottom up approach aiming to speed up the integration of electricity markets in Europe by complementing the top down approach of the three Directives. They were successful in creating regional submarkets using...
Many research studies have been conducted to help simultaneous code changes on multiple code fragments. Code clones and logical couplings are often utilized in such research studies. However, most of them have been evaluated on only open source projects or students' software. In this paper, we report our academic-industrial collaboration with a software company. The collaboration is intended to suggest...
KS tools are tools that allow knowledge workers to share and reuse knowledge both in organizations and leisure environments. However the adoption of KS tools in most organizational ecosystem is slow and worrying, as many researchers have pointed out. This study looks into several factors such as nationality, experience, position and education that influence the usage on a list of KS tools. The study...
This paper presents an approach based on Stochastic Data Envelopment Analysis (SDEA) for evaluating of shaping factors for performance assessment of electricity distribution units. This approach is applied to assessment of Iranian distribution units from 2001 to 2011. There are usually incomplete and stochastic data or lack of data with respect to electricity distribution companies. So, in this paper...
This paper describes the results of empirical research into a sample of Tier 2 automotive component suppliers to a Malaysian automotive OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer). The paper investigates the competitiveness within the supplier as a consequence of working for, and with, the OEM. The ability to leverage the suppliers' involvement in the OEM's product development process is seen as a key enabler...
The well known methods and solutions of prelanding air field coatings frictional properties control are considered. Examples of primarily used in the world practice measurement techniques of adhesion coefficient of runway are discussed. Original method for efficiency improvement of prelanding air field coatings frictional properties control is presented.
We develop a non-homogeneous Poisson model to study how the relationship between advertising and WOM and the occurrence of unexpected events affect product diffusion. For correlated effect, we generate parameters of advertising and WOM with given correlation by Copula method. For random effect, we use a Markov chain to modulate correlation between two parameters as well as distributions of two parameters...
Prior studies of employee turnover have inherently included employees who depart due to dissatisfaction with the locality of their employment, though the search for factors contributing to turnover generally ignores locality. We introduce the construct of "locality turnover" defined as an employee's voluntary departure from the region or district. In a field study of 244 workers, we examined...
IT Outsourcing (ITO) is used widely by Multinational Companies (MNCs) as a sourcing strategy today. ITO relationship between service buyer and provider then becomes a crucial issue in achieving expected objectives. This research sheds light on the influence of organizational culture (OC) of the buyer company on its ITO relationship with the provider. More specifically, the influence that OC can have...
Lack of text data is one of the main issues encountered by Malay speech researchers. Currently, there are few established Malay text corpora to aid in their research. Text corpora are essential due to its ability to provide empirical data for researchers in the field of linguistics and are useful to construct word lists for speech intelligibility test, speech analysis across genders and automatic...
Organizational relationships are usually very complex in real life. It is difficult or impossible to directly measure such correlations among different organizations, because important information is usually not publicly available (e.g., The correlations of terrorist organizations). Nowadays, an increasing amount of organizational information can be posted online by individuals and spread instantly...
