Organizations are increasingly adopting digital strategies and investing heavily in digital technologies and initiatives. However, to date, there does not appear to be a clear understanding of digital strategies and their purpose, which forms the motivation for this research. This research-in-progress study aims to address this research gap by exploring 1) the various conceptions of digital str...

•Many parents use multiple monitoring strategies in different combinations over time to monitor their adolescents.•Adolescents of parents who use multiple strategies reported greater risk involvement.•Parents who solicited information only from adolescents had greater knowledge and adolescent disclosure.

Ca A uniform momentum source-and-sink scheme of nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) is developed to calculate the shear viscosity of fluids in this paper. The uniform momentum source and sink are realized by...

The focus of this paper is on developing ways to evaluate teaching performance on a regular basis as a means of improving teaching effectiveness and increasing student learning in the classroom. In particular, this paper shows how an instructor-developed pretest, when given at the start of an introductory economics course as part of a preand post-test strategy, can be used as a diagnostic and d...

Abstract Recently, orbital angular momentum (OAM) has been adopted to measure the shape of static objects and translation motion moving in optical remote sensing. Most these studies rely on measuring intensity variation OAM beams. However, does not change with rotation spinning object, but its phase changes. The is proved be proportional object’s velocity. Since a rotating object will cause dep...

Trigger capability for dimuon events is discussed. The acceptance and low momentum reach are calculated. The rates of muon trigger caused by prompt muons, hadron decays and hadronic punchthrough are examined. A trigger strategy for Pb-Pb collision is proposed to ensure high efficiency for the signal and acceptable background rates. Possible modifications for lighter ions are briefly discussed. ...

In the empirical analysis we identify herding by documenting sequential correlation of lending decisions after controlling for listing heterogeneity and payoff externalities. We then distinguish rational herding from irrational herding based on the premise that publicly observable listing attributes should moderate the herding momentum if lenders are rational observational learners. In this sec...
