Despite the expectation that Information Technology (IT) is valuable in managing and leveraging multiple alliance relationships and the resultant alliance networks, a paucity in theoretical and empirical examination persists in the literature. Employing social network analysis (SNA), we examined whether IT investment moderates the effect exerted by a firm’s structural properties in alliance net...

The prediction of β-turn, despite the observation that one out of four residues in protein belongs to this structure element, has attracted considerably less attention comparing to secondary structure predictions. Neural network machine learning is a popular approach to address such a problem of structural bioinformatics. In this paper, we describe a new neural network model for β-turn predicti...

Dimensional ideas are common in every branch of science. Social network analysis is no exception. Almost every study of social networks involves discussion of the parameters, factors or dimensions underlying and embodied in the pattern of relations that is being examined. Different words are used, but the idea is the same; we would like to be able to reduce the enormous number of structural cha...
