Proactive yet Reflective? Materializing Proactive Personality into Creative Performance

A Validation of the Proactive Personality Scale

In a study, we carried out a validation of the Proactive Personality Scale (PPS; Seibert, Crant, & Kraimer, 1999), that measures the inclination to take action and change the environment to realize one’s goals. Participants were 139 employees, working in two companies. The majority of participants were blue-collar workers. The instrument used was a questionnaire. A 7-item version of the scale w...

Performance Analysis of Proactive and Reactive

Mobile Ad hoc networks are the collection of wireless nodes that can exchange information dynamically among them without pre existing fixed infrastructure. Because of highly dynamic in nature, performance of routing protocols is an important issue. In addition to this routing protocols face many challenges like limited battery backup, limited processing capability and limited memory resources. ...

Performance Analysis of Proactive and Reactive Transport Protocols using a Proactive Congestion Avoidance Model

This paper attempts to establish the fact that Proactive transport protocols are better than conventional Reactive transport protocols in terms of overall utilization of resources. This has been proved analytically in this paper using a mathematical model developed for proactive congestion avoidance. The paper also provides a mathematical framework for Proactive Transport Protocol and predicts ...
