We present a new dynamic analytical approach for studying scenarios produced by an integrated assessment (IA) model. Our approach involves the analysis of a large number of scenarios, which can better address three principal shortcomings of how uncertainty is traditionally handled in IA scenario studies. The shortcomings are all a result of the prevailing practice of investigating a small numbe...

Eight key IS strategic alignment studies are reviewed and classified using Miles and Snow’s business strategy typology in an effort to reconcile different approaches. Key findings include a high degree of consistency between study results along typology lines and support for a moderating effect of business strategy on the relationship between IS strategic alignment and business performance.

It goes without saying that a good linguistic theory should neither undergenerate (i.e., it should not miss any attested patterns) nor overgenerate (i.e., it should not predict any “unattestable” patterns). Recent literature has argued that the Maximum Entropy (ME; Goldwater & Johnson 2003) framework provides a probabilistic extension of categorical Harmonic Grammar (HG; Legendre et al. 1990; S...
