OBJECTIVE – The objective of this paper is to determine under what circumstances individual organisations would be able to rely on cross-company based estimation models. METHOD – We performed a systematic review of studies that compared predictions from crosscompany models with predictions from within-company models based on analysis of project data. RESULTS – Ten papers compared cross-company ...

innovation and sustainable development have been considered fundamental elements in the competitive positioning of companies. the synergies between both concepts, known as eco-innovation, must be considered when designing company policies. the aim of this paper is to analyse which moderating factors determine how innovative companies perform when implementing a sustainable proactive approach...

RNA ISH (Ribonucleic acid in situ hybridization) assays are an ever-expanding application due to the ability to evaluate molecular targets with the added benefit of retaining tissue morphology. The rate limiting step in RNA ISH assays is the time consuming and error prone method of manually counting signal when reviewing under a microscope. The Aperio RNA ISH algorithm offers a reproducible, fa...

pon differentiation, many cell types no longer proliferate in response to growth factor–activated MAPK. But MAPK has more than just mitogenic effects, and the cells must still activate and respond to MAPK to adjust lipid metabolism, protein synthesis, and other cellular functions. On page 689, Smith et al. identify a simple, yet until now elusive, mechanism by which cells uncouple MAPK's prolif...

This book is dealing with some approaches to analysis of specific social networks called company networks. These company networks emerge from interactions between companies, where a lot of these interactions are recorded by publicly accessible sources. Our work is designing and implementing methods of heterogeneous sources’ cleansing, aggregation and integration into comprehensive data model of...

The neo-Fregean project of basing mathematics on abstraction principles faces “the bad company problem,” namely that a great variety of unacceptable abstraction principles are mixed in among the acceptable ones. In this paper I propose a new solution to the problem, based on the idea that individuation must take the form of a well-founded process. A surprising aspect of this solution is that ev...

This paper aims to test the relationships between information exchange benefits and company performance, and the mediating effect of supply chain compliance on this relationship. A sample of 165 buying companies and a sample of 96 suppliers were analyzed by partial least square (PLS) path modeling. Five company characteristics, including company size, company age, company type, quality standard...
