the present study investigated the use of interactive metadiscourse resources (imrs) in terms of appropriacy during a process- based writing course by applying qualitative and exploratory methods. moreover, learners' perception was investigated to find out how confident they felt as they were writing and rewriting the drafts. 30 intermediate efl learners were chosen to participate in this study...

Since the early development of interest in the interpersonal dimensions of academic communication in the 1980s, the analytic potentials of the concept of metadiscourse have motivated a large number of investigations. Although these analytic potentials have facilitated the study of diverse academic genres, there has always been a risk of detachment of textual analyses form the contextual origins...

Circular oriented innovation commonly requires collaboration. Yet, to date, circular research lacks empirical investigation into collaborative processes. Collaborative processes are, however, highly researched within strategic management literature, thus offering valuable insights. The purpose of this paper is investigate, identify and order the that companies undertake when designing implement...

The evolution of Information Warfare (IW) concepts and doctrine has been considered in many publications.1,2,4 Our core concept is that IW concerns human activities and judgements performed as part of the Command and Control (C2) process. It is our view that C2 is a universal human activity and that it is the battlefield on which IW occurs. Our objective in this paper is to analyze the C2 proce...

Current methods to avoid overrtting are either data-oriented (using separate data for validation) or representation-oriented (penalizing complexity in the model). This paper proposes process-oriented evaluation, where a model's expected generalization error is computed as a function of the search process that led to it. The paper develops the necessary theoretical framework, and applies it to o...

Traditionally, business process analysis is primarily concerned with the identification of structural weaknesses, inefficient capacity utilization or IT deficiencies. Despite this well-founded knowledge about process performance, and despite the increasingly recognized relevance of human capital for business performance, business process analysis efforts rarely touch human resources – except fo...
