The process of the evolution trajectory of the management logistics function is tracked in the context of the theory and practice of a networked approach to supply chain management (SCM). Issues around the main competitive forces are driving reforms in deregulation, globalisation, and...

The objective of this study is to examine the market valuation of environmental capital expenditure investment related to pollution abatement in the pulp and paper industry. The total environmental capital expenditure of $8.7 billion by our sample firms during 1989-2000 supports the focus on...

Assessing fiscal sustainability – i.e. considering whether or not a country can maintain its current fiscal policies without running into solvency problems and possible default – requires projections on a government's future revenue stream, expenditures and contingent liabilities within a...

We calculate real-space static correlation functions of spin and charge degrees of freedom of the one-dimensional Hubbard model that are described by operators related to singly occupied sites with spin up or spin down (spinons) and unoccupied or doubly occupied sites (η-spinons). The spatial...

In this paper, we contribute to the literature by including a knock-out barrier option in a compound real option model to take account of immediate project failure, a so-called sudden death. We apply the model to the case of hydrogen infrastructure development. In our case study, we find that...

We study the competition and strategy selections between a class of generalized zero-determinant (ZD) strategies and the classic strategies of always cooperate (AllC), always defect (AllD), tit-for-tat (TFT), and win-stay-lose-shift (WSLS) strategies in an iterated prisoner’s dilemma...
