This large-scale study analyses the influence of co-ordination and trust problems on employees’ access to weekly home-based teleworking from a combined perspective of transaction-cost theory and new economic-sociology. Access is more likely when additional co-ordination and control problems are smaller. Indicators of the so-called ‘telework-risk’ are ‘time sovereignty’, ‘job autonomy’, ‘job int...

In a global supply network, the overall improvement of operational efficiency and customer satisfaction can only be achieved through greater co-ordination and collaboration of all the network members.

Informationand communication technologies (ICT) raise opportunities for computer supported communication, dispersed co-ordination and collaboration and make coordination intense organisational structures less expensive. However, an explorative case study at the Amsterdam Police Force confirm insights from prior research that deeply rooted organisational practices can 'make or break' distributed...

. Researchers have proposed a number of co-ordination functions in literature for improving quality of service. Each one is based on different characteristics and properties. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of wireless network using PCF, DCF & EDCF. We perform simulations using OPNET IT GURU Academic Edition simulator. In the performance evaluation of the co-ordination function, the ...

The main purpose of this article was to identify whether an interpersonal motor co-ordination emerges between two participants when they intentionally tried to not co-ordinate their movements between each other. To do this we conjointly examined both the emergence of the motor co-ordination (collective properties) between the two participants, and the maintenance of the individual intrinsic mot...
