Download or read book Competitiveness Organizational Management and Governance in Family Firms written by Camisón, Cesar and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "family effect" remains a challenge for researchers interested in both the family firm’s organizational form and in the effects of familial ownership on a firm's strategy, structure, and performance. Governance mechanisms, management quality, ownership concentration, and family involvement all have relevant effects in terms of influencing monitoring costs, investment decisions, the development of the portfolio of resources and capabilities, and family firm competitiveness. Nevertheless, few studies to date have opened the black box of the "family effect." Competitiveness, Organizational Management, and Governance in Family Firms is an essential reference source that makes a clear distinction between the separation of ownership and management, on the one hand, and the institutional development of family governance instruments, on the other, to help uncover the asymmetric effects of these two choices. It also allows the examination as to which of the two strategies employed in family firms reinforce managerial capital that has a greater positive impact on the "family effect," thus helping to achieve better managerial capabilities. Featuring research on topics such as corporate governance, private business, and successional leadership, this book is ideally designed for managers, executives, CEOs, company owners, consultants, business professionals, entrepreneurs, academicians, and researchers interested in an in-depth understanding of the keys to success and survival of family-operated organizations.

Download or read book Developing Linear Algebra Codes on Modern Processors Emerging Research and Opportunities written by Catalán Pallarés, Sandra and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-10-14 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimized linear algebra (LA) libraries that are able to exploit the underlying hardware are always of interest in the high-performance computing community. The implementation of LA software has evolved along with computer architecture, while the specification remains unaltered almost from the beginning. It is important to differentiate between the specification of LA libraries and their implementation. Because LA libraries pursue high performance, the implementation for a given architecture needs to be optimized for it specifically. However, the type of operations included in the libraries, the input/output parameters, and the data types to be handled are common to all of them. This is why, while the specification remains constant, the implementation evolves with the creation of new architectures. Developing Linear Algebra Codes on Modern Processors: Emerging Research and Opportunities presents the main characteristics of LA libraries, showing the differences between the standards for sparse and dense versions. It further explores relevant linear algebra problems and shows, in a clear and understandable way, how to solve them using different computer architectures. Covering topics such as programming models, batched computing, and distributed memory platforms, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for programmers, computer scientists, engineers, students and faculty of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

Download or read book 4C ID Model and Cognitive Approaches to Instructional Design and Technology Emerging Research and Opportunities written by de Miranda, Guilhermina Maria Lobato Ferreira and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an evolution of the explanations on the results of research on human learning and how digital technologies have supported the design of more efficient learning environments. Previous theories such as Richard Mayer’s cognitive theory of multimedia learning and John Sweller’s cognitive load theory have gained signification attention and remain the two main theories within the multimedia learning field. However, there has not yet been a book compiled of several investigations on the specific 4C-ID model that covers different domains of knowledge. The 4C-ID model combines the two main theories of Richard Mayer and John Sweller to advance the field of learning and instruction. 4C-ID Model and Cognitive Approaches to Instructional Design and Technology: Emerging Research and Opportunities explores the behavioral and constructivist approaches to learning and instruction and focuses mainly on the particular cognitive approach and resulting theories and insights of the 4C-ID model. The chapters present the results of three experimental studies applied to the teaching of electrical circuits, initiation to computer programming using the Alice microworld, and computer programming using Python textual language. This book is a valuable resource tool for computer programmers, computer scientists, teachers, educational psychologists, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the various approaches to learning and instruction in terms of the 4C-ID instructional model.

This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disputes between peers as well as between supervisors-subordinates happen numerous times a week in the corporate environment. Although the win-win concept is the ideal orientation, the notion that there can only be one winner is constantly being reinforced in some cultures. This kind of mentality can be destructive when communicating with different cultural groups by creating barriers in negotiation, resolution, and compromise; it can also lead the "loser" to feel mediocre. When the win-win orientation is absent in negotiation, different responses to conflict may be observed. Strategic Approaches for Conflict Resolution in Organizations: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides emerging research on approaches for conflict resolution in organizations whereby it is possible to establish congenial ambiences in different organizations, leading to better outcomes and performance. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as organizational change, leaderships roles, and organizational change, this book is ideally designed for managers, human resources officials, executives, researchers, scholars, professors, industry professionals, and students interested in the current research behind the reduction, elimination, and termination of all forms of organizational conflict.
