ISO 26000 represents a new type of voluntary standard. This paper discusses key aspects of the diffusion and adoption of this new standard. We have surveyed experts who developed ISO 26000 and collected data on their perceptions of macro and micro aspects of ISO 26000. We find similarities between our data on ISO 26000 and studies on the adoption and diffusion of other standards. We have also i...

The purpose of this paper is to outline the ISO 26000 and the development of multi-stakeholder management as it has come to be applied in strategic management. Stakeholder engagement can be defined as interactive activities initiated by an organization with its stakeholders. One of the general CSR principles within ISO 26000 concerns respecting stakeholder interests. Brief discussion of managin...

Social Responsibility (SR) concerns the way in which organizations achieve their goals. This paper focuses on the overview of the SR as well as the endpoint of the continuous development of SR, the ISO 26000 standard and its core subjects. The aims are to give Information Technology (IT) professionals a better understanding of how to identify the core subjects of ISO 26000 relevant for their or...

Component polypeptides of both the bovine lens and pituitary multicatalytic proteinase complexes demonstrate different immunoreactivities with a polyclonal antiserum raised against the purified pituitary enzyme. Four (Mr 24000, 26000, 34000 and 38000) of eight bands that have been resolved by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis are stained in immunoblot experiments. Monospecific antibodies o...

A novel VLSI implementation of the Viterbi algorithm based on a cascade architecture is presented. Survivor sequence memory management is implemented using a new single read pointer traceback technique. The overall design for a 16-qtate, rate 1/2 decoder requires about 26000 transistors and a core area of 8.5 mma in a 1.2 pm two-level metal CMOS technology.

Preparations of NADH-ubiquinone reductase from bovine heart mitochondria (Complex I) were shown to contain at least 16 polypeptides by gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. High-molecular-weight soluble NADH dehydrogenase prepared from Triton X-100 extracts of submitochondrial particles [Baugh & King (1972) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 49, 1165-1173] was similar t...
