the main purpose of this research was to study the variables and factors that affect adaptation of university to external environment and to develop a model for assessment of tehran public universities adaptation to external environment. a mixed method research approach involving a three-round delphi study was used to record responses to the closed-questions and open-ended-questions. other data...

social incentives that bring them into existence and sustain them in the course of time. non-governmental organizations (ngos), whether based in the global north or south, are not different. unfortunately, numerous ngos start up and then fail, because the passion of the founder is not supported by a sustainable organization volunteers in all sectors are working with ngos. the ngos are citizen...

Non-positive, Markovian semigroups are sometimes used to describe the time evolution of subsystems immersed in an external environment. A widely adopted prescription to avoid the appearance of negative probabilities is to eliminate from the admissible initial conditions those density matrices that would not remain positive by the action of the semigroup dynamics. Using a continuous variable mod...

One of the most significant developments in international credit markets in recent years has been the trade in Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO), which has enabled financial institutions to repackage the credit risk of an asset portfolio into tranches to be transferred to investors. The present paper evaluates the credit risk of such a portfolio and the related tranches by applying two prom...

Non-invasive measures for assessing long-term stress in free ranging mammals are an increasingly important approach for understanding physiological responses to landscape conditions. Using a spatially and temporally expansive dataset of hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) generated from a threatened grizzly bear (Ursus arctos) population in Alberta, Canada, we quantified how variables representi...

The starting point from which we began our research was that many companies around the world could not predict and adapt to new changes taking place in environment (closure due corona virus pandemic, war Ukraine, sanctions against Russia). Through strategic analysis, were able gather information about planned scenarios based on them, quality decisions be made. goal of is out importance as an im...

Although the importance of the external IT environment has been recognized in the literature, there has been little effort to conceptualize the theoretical dimensions of this construct and develop operational indicators to measure it. Our research addresses this gap and seeks to develop the theoretical dimensions and operational measures for external IT environment and empirically validate them...
