Using the Fokker-Planck equation, two methods are outlined to estimate the branch selectivity in a system crossing a bifurcation point. The results are compared with measurements and a recent theory. The accuracies of the measurements and predictions of the theory are discussed.

The solution of the time dependent multivelocity Fokker-Planck equation in plane geometry with an absorbing boundary is formulated in terms of the infinite medium Green's function and the boundary distribution. The boundary distribution is to be determined by solving an integral equation. It is...

The present paper provides a comprehensive multi-dimensional classification of Electronic Marketplaces (EM). The paper opens the discussion by investigating the early utilizations of the concept of EM and makes some original references to the early uses of the technology in marketplaces. After...

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of Internet-based technology (IBT) use during a new product development (NPD) project on new product time-to-market. It is hypothesized that (1) IBT use has a positive impact on new product time-to-market (2) this impact is both direct and...

This study, we have analyzes the growth and spatial pattern to find out the determinants of wheat productivity in Haryana. The Composite Standard Score (CSS) indicates that Kaithal, Karnal, Jind, Hisar, Fatehabad and Sirsa districts have secured top positions, while Gurgaon, Rewari and...

Spirituality in the workplace is gaining recognition and value among researchers, academicians, and business professionals. The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of spirituality in the workplace on job satisfaction by measuring four dimensions of spirituality in the workplace:...

Several researchers address the failure of e-government (EG) in developing countries. Researchers studying the failure of information and communication technology (ICT) and EG systems reveal that the initiative, strategy, and adoption criteria of ICT in developing countries do not follow the...

In this study, we evaluate the impact of R&D intensity on acquiring firms’ abnormal returns by examining 925 Canadian completed deals between 1993 and 2002 that have information on R&D expenditures. While examining the returns to acquiring firm shareholders in the R&D intensive firms we...

The statistics of the reflection and transmission coefficients of a two-state Markov medium is analysed using the rod model of the invariant imbedding approach in linear transport theory. The presence of a noise-induced transition in the reflectivity of a semi-infinite medium, as the mean size...
