Abstract:
Compatibility has been recognised as an important element in the adoption of IT innovations in organisations but as a concept it has been generally limited to technical or functional factors. Compatibility is also significant, however, with regard to value compatibility between the organisation, and the adopted IT innovation. We propose a framework to determine value compatibility analysing the organisation's and information system's structure, practices and culture, and explore the value compatibility of an organisation with its adopted self-service computer-based information system. A case study was conducted to determine the congruence of an organisation's value and IT value compatibility. This study found that there was a high correspondence in the organisational structure and practice dimensions; however, there were organisational culture disparities. The cultural disparities reflected the self-service acceptance and training issues experienced by the case organisation. These findings add insight into the problems experienced with value compatibility and the adoption of the information systems, and show the potential use of the proposed framework in the detection of such problems.

Summary The article contains the characterisation of the issue and features of a networking organisation. In the context of a specific manner of cooperation among organisations-partners in the network there has been indicated a great need for coordination of activities of particular entities for the purpose of meeting the arranged objectives and controlling has been proposed as a method supporting effective networking organisation management. The article presents the evolution of the concept of controlling from strategic controlling, to partnership-based controlling towards controlling in networking organisations. The concept and tasks of controlling in networking organisations (networking controlling) have been defined. There has been presented an outline or functional, organisational and instrumental solutions.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to explore the serial mediation effect of perceived internal employability and affective commitment in the relationship between the organisational practices of competences development and turnover intentions. Design/methodology/approach The methodology was quantitative and is based on a survey with a sample of 313 participants, all of whom were employed in several organisations located in Portugal. Findings A significant and negative effect of organisational practices of competences development, perceived internal employability and affective commitment on turnover intentions was verified. A total serial mediation effect was also found from perceived internal employability and affective commitment in the relationship between organisational practices of competences development (i.e., training, individualised support and functional rotation) and turnover intentions. Practical implications These practices should be developed by leaders of organisations in order that employees feel that the organisation is investing in their development, which can lead to an increase in their emotional attachment towards the organisation and consequently increase their desire to stay in the organisation. Originality/value This study makes two important contributions. First, it confirms the existence of a significant and negative relationship between perceived internal employability and turnover intentions. Second, it proves the existence of a total serial mediation effect of perceived internal employability and affective commitment in the relationship between organisational practices of competences development and turnover intentions.

Abstract:
PurposeNowadays, the aspects of the intellectual capital (IC) management have become important, valuing it as an integral part of the organisation. Researchers emphasise the strategic importance of IC management, particularly in the context of satisfying the stakeholders' interests and value creation. However, the existing studies reflect individual elements of IC management, not analysing them as a system which is a part of the organisational management system, and hence it is impossible to draw valid conclusions on the impact of IC on the organisation's performance. The aim of the paper is to describe an approach to the elaboration of the IC management strategy and its integration into the organisation's management system.Design/methodology/approachThe developed approach is based on a holistic and systemic view of the organisation, where IC management is integrated into the organisation's management . This approach is based on the structure of IC developed by Lentjušenkova and Lapina (2016). In this structure, business processes are the IC component that unites the other three ones – human capital, technologies and intangible assets. The study has used induction and deduction, as well as analytical and synthetic qualitative research methods, including logical constructive and conceptual (concept) analysis.FindingsElaborating the organisational strategy by taking into account the stakeholder interests, the organisation is able to ensure sustainable development. Using the integrated management approach, IC management is integrated into the organisation's activities and joint operational strategy. In this case, IC management becomes an integral part of the organisation's activities functioning in conjunction with the other organisation's systems, and it is integrated into all ongoing business processes.Research limitations/implicationsThe approach the authors have proposed to IC management could be adapted by small and medium-sized companies. Using it, companies do not need to create special functional units or division, because IC becomes an integral part of organisation's processes.Originality/valueIn previous studies, business processes were considered as one of the components of IC. In the study’s approach, business processes imply integration of IC into the overall organisation management system. As a framework for the proposed approach, the authors have used the Deming cycle “Plan-Do-Check-Act” that envisages dividing the development and implementation of the IC management and development strategy into four phases, with a clear allocation of tasks and a defined outcome for each individual phase. To use this approach, it is enough for organisations to conduct an analysis of processes and, depending on the strategic goals of the organisation, make additions related to managing IC.

Abstract:
AbstractThe article aims to explain how controlling influences an organisation as a whole, considering the job performance of employees and managers. It describes the development and verification of the Controlling Effectiveness Model, which characterises the impact, the place of each variable and the direction of each relationship in the effort to shape organisational performance. The hypothesis was verified with the help of empirical research, which was conducted with 264 organisations operating in Poland. The survey took place in October 2019. The authors of the article used the CAWI method. Efforts had been made to ensure a diversified research sample encompassing various organisational characteristics. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and the sequentially mediated regression model were used to verify the hypothesis. The empirical research allowed confirming a statistically significant indirect impact of the quality of controlling on organisational performance. This relationship depends on the job performance of managers and employees. The analysis of the impact made by controlling on the job performance of employees and managers as we as the organisational performance resulted in a mediation model (the Controlling Effectiveness Model) and confirmed the effect of controlling on organisational performance through the impact on job performance of managers and employees. The article has practical implications. The organisations that decide to implement controlling should focus on the quality of this management support method. It is not enough to simply implement controlling as organisations need to ensure the correct implementation. In this context, it is also relevant to properly shape functional, organisational and instrumental controlling solutions (tailored to the characteristics of the organisation as a whole, as well as to the environmental conditions, under which the organisation operates), which determine the quality of controlling.

Abstract:
This paper addresses a key interest in Keith Pavitt's later work; the organisational arrangements for co-ordinating technological knowledge. It also concurs with Pavitt's insistence on the constraints on managerial agency and his nihilistic amusement at frustrated plans. The paper considers Pavitt's conceptualisation of knowledge bases as technical disciplines and argues that there is an inconspicuous sub-level of specialised knowledge base associated with tools, products, project experience and requirements that may hamper the intents of higher-level organisation design. Two contrasting case studies are analysed of organisations attempting to manage transitions that are aimed at improving co-ordination processes. The first has moved from organisation around functional disciplines to product-based, cross-functional teams, while the second has done the reverse. The paper reviews the effects of these opposing organizational solutions on the processes of knowledge integration within the firms, the effects on communities of practice and the ways in which the systems have developed and adapted in response to the reorganisations. The paper challenges some of the simplistic prescriptions offered in the literature and provides further fuel for the debates over organisation design and the knowledge integration task.

Abstract:
Drawing on qualitative research into the design, delivery and organisation of Christmas grottos, this article offers a critical understanding of the role that a functional belief in organisational magic plays in their manufacture and operation. Utilising classic anthropological research into the cultural production of magical belief systems, I attend to how such magic is produced through a network of sociomaterial practices conducive to the commercial values of the Anglo-American Christmas. I additionally draw on contemporary literature on aesthetic and atmospheric organisation in order to analyse the practical accomplishment of organisational magic as a mode of captivation and re-enchantment. This article concludes by emphasising the increasingly commercial utility of a functional belief in magic as an organisational resource, highlighting the need for further empirical scrutiny, as well as conceptual and theoretical analysis.

Gill, D. J. "Structural and functional organisation of ESCRT complexes." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2007. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.599420.

Full text
Abstract:
My structure of the highly conserved heterotrimeric ESCRT-I core provides a blueprint for the assembly of ESCRT-I. The structure shows a fan-like arrangement of three helical hairpins, each corresponding to a different subunit. Vps23/TSG101 is the central hairpin sandwiched between the other subunits, explaining the critical role of its “steadiness box” in the stability of ESCRT-I. Subsequently, Mvb12, a fourth subunit of ESCRT-I was identified in yeast. I find that Mvb12 engages ESCRT-I directly, with nanomolar affinity to form a 1:1:1:1 heterotetramer. Mvb12 plays a critical role in maintaining structural stability of the ESCRT-I complex, through extensive interactions with both the fan-shaped structural core and another region within ESCRT-I built from upstream sequences present in the Vps23 and Vps37 subunits. Yeast ESCRT-I and ESCRT-II interact directly in vitro, however, this association is not detected in yeast cytosol. To gain understanding of the molecular mechanisms of this link, I have characterised the ESCRT-I/-II super-complex and determined the crystal structure of its interface. The link is formed by the Vps28 C-terminus (ESCRT-I) binding with nanomolar affinity to the Vps36-NZF-N zinc-finger domain (ESCRT-II). A hydrophobic patch on the Vps28-CT four-helix bundle contacts the hydrophobic knuckles of the Vps36-NZF-N. Mutation of the ESCRT-I/-II link results in a cargo-sorting defect in yeast, apparently due to the failure to generate ILVs on the maturing endosome. Interestingly, the two Vps36 NZF domains, NZF-N and NZF-C, despite having the same core fold, use distinct surfaces to bind ESCRT-I or ubiquitinated cargo. Mvb12 does not affect the affinity of ESCRT-I for ESCRT-II in vitro. In contrast, deletion of Mvb12 results in formation of a constitutive ESCRT-I/II association in vivo. These data suggest a complex regulatory mechanism for the ESCRT-I/-II link in yeast.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis describes a series of experimental investigations into the functional organisation of human visual cortex using neuromagnetometry. In one series of experiments the evoked magnetic response was recorded to isoluminant red/green gratings. Co-registration of signal and magnetic resonance image data indicated a contribution to the response from visual areas V1, V2 and V4. To investigate the spatio-temporal characteristics of neurones within area V1 the evoked response was recorded for a range of stimulus spatial and temporal frequencies. The response to isoluminant red/green gratings was dominated by a major component which was found to have bandpass spatial frequency tuning with a peak at 1-2 cycles/degree, falling to the level of the noise at 6-8 cycles/degree. The temporal frequency tuning characteristics of the response showed bimodal sensitivity with peaks at 0-1Hz and 4Hz. In a further series of experiments the luminance evoked response was recorded to red/black, yellow/black and achromatic gratings and in all cases was found to be more complex than the isoluminant chromatic response, comprising up to three distinct components. The major response peak showed bandpass spatial frequency tuning characteristics, peaking at 6-8 cycles/degree, falling to the level of the noise at 12-16 cycles/degree. The results provide evidence to suggest that within area V1 the same neuronal population encodes both chromatic and luminance information and has spatial frequency tuning properties consistent with single-opponent cells. Furthermore, the results indicate that cells within area V1 encode chromatic motion information over a wide range of temporal frequencies with temporal response characteristics suggestive of the existence of a sub-population of cells sensitive to high temporal frequencies.

Dias, R. "Functional organisation of the prefrontal cortex of the common marmoset." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 1996. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.598525.

Full text
Abstract:
In the past, two main theories of prefrontal function in animals have been proposed. The first implicates the prefrontal cortex in working memory, the second in the inhibitory control of behaviour. However, to date the organisation of the prefrontal cortex in the control of these functions is largely unknown. To address the issue of functional organisation within the prefrontal cortex of the marmoset, this thesis focused on the inhibitory control of behaviour. The initial study demonstrated that attentional set-shifting and visual discrimination reversal learning are sensitive to global prefrontal damage in the marmoset in a qualitatively similar manner to that observed previously in man and Old World monkeys respectively. The deficit was interpreted to be one of inhibitory control but, given the cognitive processing demands of these two tasks are different from one another, it is highly probable that the type of inhibitory control required is also different. Subsequently, the effects of discrete lesions specific to either the lateral or orbital regions of the prefrontal cortex on performance of attentional set-shifting and discrimination reversal learning were examined. Whereas the lateral, but not the orbital, prefrontal cortex was the critical locus in shifting an attentional set between perceptual dimensions; in contrast, the orbital, but not the lateral, prefrontal cortex was the critical locus in reversing a stimulus-reward association within a particular perceptual dimension. Both deficits were interpreted as constituting disinhibition or loss of inhibitory control, but a different levels. The inhibitory control required in attentional set-shifting appears to be at the level of attentional selection whereas the inhibitory control required in reversal learning is likely to be at the level of stimulus-reward associations or 'affective' processing.

Abstract:
The nucleus is a highly compartmentalised organelle. Associations of genomic loci with nuclear structures are correlated with gene activity or silencing, and functional long-range interactions between loci in the same or different chromosomes have been described recently. Therefore, chromosome organisation confers potential for the spatial regulation of gene expression. . Chromosomes occupy distinct territories during interphase, and previous models of chromosome organisation had suggested that there is little or no intermingling between them. However, the frequency of chromosome translocations and the existence of interchromosomal associations seemed to indicate otherwise. I used a high-resolution approach to study chromosome organisation in human lymphocytes and showed that chromosomes intermingle significantly during interphase, with implications in translocations. Changes in transcription affect chromosome organisation and, in particular, transcription inhibition influences chromosome intermingling in a specific manner, suggesting that transcription-dependent long-range interactions help to establish preferential chromosomal neighbourhoods. To gain mechanistic insights into the formation of interchromosomal associations, I investigated a previously reported i6teraction between the TH2 locus and lfng in murine naIve T cells. I found no evidence for a close and direct interaction between the two loci, although they are indirectly non-randomly positioned in relation to each other, possibly by sharing associations with a large nuclear structure. Finally, I studied the role of nuclear organisation in the regulation of a gene-dense cluster in the mouse genome, before and after the insertion of a strong enhancer element. Nuclear organisation seems to benefit clustering of genes in the genome by promoting and maintaining active states across th~ loc'!ls, but expression of individual genes is further regulated by other mechanisms, such as longrange interactions via chromatin looping. My work brings new insights into the organisation of chromosomes in the mammalian nucleus, and its relationship with transcription and gene regulation.

Full text
Abstract:
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) plays an important role in cellular signalling by generating phospholipid second messengers at the plasma membrane. A large repertoire of signalling and actin-binding proteins, which consistently regulate the dynamic assembly and spatial organisation of actin filaments, binds phospholipid second messengers, through their pleckstrin homology (PH) domains, and regulates changes in actin cytoskeleton dynamics and organisation in response to external stimuli. Thus, the actin cytoskeleton, which functions in the generation and maintenance of cell morphology and polarity, regulation of endocytosis and intracellular trafficking, contractility, motility and cell division, is considered as an integral part of the cell signal transduction system. PI3K-dependent actin cytoskeleton reorganisation has been the subject of intensive studies, as alteration in the cytoskeleton and thus in cell morphology and migration appear to be common signatures of malignancy where PI3K activation is significantly involved. PI3K- dependent regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics is proposed to be achieved by cross-talk with the Rho-family small GTPases, major regulators of actin cytoskeleton organisation. However, the molecular mechanisms behind PI3K-dependent actin reorganisation and their interaction with small GTPases in not yet clearly defined. The aim of this project was to investigate the role of the PI3K signalling in controlling actin cytoskeleton, and to explore possible common targets of PI3K and Rho-family small GTPase signalling pathways, as well as to search for new targets downstream of PI3K. Initially, the role of PI3K in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton in Drosophila cells was defined. Furthermore, a "loss-of-function approach" based on RNA interference for genes involved in PI3K and small GTPase signalling was combined with quantitative differential protein expression analysis and mass spectrometry. The differentially expressed proteins, many of which were cytoskeleton proteins, metabolic and redox enzymes, were linked to signalling pathways and associated with the morphological phenotype of each knockdown. Finally, the research was focused on studying the regulation of phosphorylation of cofilin, an actin depolymerising protein. It has been established that cofilin phosphorylation and activity is not directly regulated by upstream signalling events, but by changes in the levels of filamentous actin itself, with slingshot, the cofilin phosphatase, being a key regulator in sensing the dynamic changes in F-actin levels. Thus, cofilin phosphorylation is a homeostatic sensor of actin polymerisation, which self-limits protrusive response to external stimuli.

On a larger scale, professional activities may harm the environment and the public living in the vicinity of the plant. After this book has highlighted some of the scientific and technical challenges of occupational safety at accelerators, this closing chapter describes how the safety process works, and how and by which means safety is organised in complex structures. The chapter closes with beam safety and functional safety, two areas where technical hazards are controlled by organisational processes.

Abstract:
Loviisa NPP has two VVER 440-type pressurised-water reactors. The automation renewal project started in the beginning of 2005 when Fortum signed a contract with a consortium of AREVA-NP and Siemens AG. The functional concept of the new I&C is defined in terms of task categories. In normal operational conditions the nuclear power unit is controlled by normal process control functions. Also safety-related preventive protection functions may be activated. Reactor protection functions are activated in operational transients and in accidents. Also diverse manual and automatic backup of the Reactor Protection System is foreseen. After an operational transient or an accident the operators steer the plant to a safe state using plant shutdown or accident management functions. The new control systems and Man Machine Interface (MMI) will be implemented using safety and non-safety digital control platforms and user interfaces. In addition to these conventional non-digital platform with dedicated MMI will be provided to control selected critical functions. Loviisa NPP is using Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP) designed together with AREVA-NP, EdF and Fortum consisting of event and state oriented procedures. This set of procedures is being adapted to a functional concept of the new I&C together with AREVA-NP and Fortum. The rules for organisation of operation with different EOPs and MMIs and the principles and methods of computerization of the EOPs are defined. The rules for organisation of operation with different EOPs and MMIs are designed taking into account requirements set for different task categories and criticality of the actions to be performed by the operator. Priority to the safety MMI is given in case of critical actions. Conventional MMI is used if fast operator response is required. The principles and methods of computerization of the EOPs are consistent with the concept developed for the French EPR and also for the new Chinese plant. This concept takes into account the N4 plant feedback. One of the main targets of the EOP computerizations is to keep the design of operation and support screens close to the present ones.

Abstract:
Gas turbine engine prices vary widely. Any organisation planning to invest in a project involving the use of gas turbine engines, as prime mover, must perform a robust economic analysis to guide the organisations investment decisions. One major element that could greatly influence the outcome of an economic analysis, and eventual organisational decisions and planning, is gas turbine engine acquisition price. This study applies artificial neural networks to estimate gas turbine engine price. A supervised network learning strategy has been adopted to train the network from a dataset of historical records of gas turbine engine performance parameters and engine price. Numerical gradient checking has been performed to validate the computed cost function with quantified similarity obtained in the order of 10−9. The challenge of neural network overfitting has been minimized by applying a regularization technique. As such, the developed network closes reflects real world observations. To validate the network predictions, the developed neural network has been used to estimate the price of known gas turbine engine units with 95% to 99.9% accuracy.

Abstract:
Abstract For several decades, completion design has been performed by the Field Development (FD) Team of several offshore fields in Abu Dhabi and installed with minimal Completion Engineering Team contribution. The demand of lower completion requirement has being increased to maximize well portfolio and enhance well life. The completion design is becoming more challenging and import for key to success. Since a companywide re-organisation occurred a dedicated Completion Engineering Department has been formed to develop a plan to standardise & optimise completions in order to reduce phase duration and NPT. A plan was approved that involved the hiring of a complete engineering department with expertise in many different types of completion and workover operations from all over the globe. This engineering team was brought together from other oil companies and service providers, and tasked with reviewing all current and future completion designs, operations procedures and completion equipment. This was done in order to identify suitability and gaps that were the cause of well construction NPT and identify processes that could be used to reduce or eliminate possible future Well Integrity problems. When the new organisation was formed completion phase NPT reached over 20%, however three month after the NPT had dropped to 11.1%. Within six months of the engineering team starting to be formed, completion phase duration has reduced by 20% and NPT has reduced by almost 50%. These results have been achieved with a concerted effort to maximize understanding of the equipment available to be deployed and develop standardized completion designs that meet the functional requirements of the Field Development Department. As the department has grown and moves forward, a greater involvement in the development of documents such as but not limited to: scope of work and technical requirements for procurement; further deepens the engineering-centric approach that will continue reducing completion phase duration contributing to the operator strategic goals. This paper will show how the newly formed engineering team has managed a complex change from a previous organisation to a new one. Whilst the previous completion design and execution methodology was seen to be successful in other operating companies, the successful engineering-centric approach has been proven within other national operator offshore concessions to reduce phase duration and NPT.

Abstract:
Many organisations around the world are beginning to move towards a position of increased diversity in their numbers. There are many ways to look at the issue and achieve satisfactory outcomes. This paper explores an approach which offers strong advantages and benefits for the functional integration of minority groups. Operating on the theoretical principles of Diversity Acceptance and Organisational Inclusive Behaviour, the paper will explore the two cycles of diversity. The first cycle follows a ‘vicious’ path, where diversity adjustments are not applied or effective. This cycle highlights the problems that occur as a result of increased heterogeneity. The second cycles follows a ‘virtuous’ path, where diversity adjustments are successful, and the benefits of Diversity Acceptance and Organisational Inclusive Behaviour can be realized. The paper will close with a presentation of the strategies that can be employed to deliver effective diversity adjustments through Diversity Acceptance and Organisational Inclusive Behaviour.

Abstract:
Design processes in current industrial contexts require integration between different disciplines and functions, not only within an organisation but also across organisational and even national borders. Many barriers to integration can be observed, however, in multi-disciplinary and multifunctional design projects. One of these barriers is the lack of organisational, management, and social knowledge and skills, on the level of team members as well as on the level of project management. To achieve a sufficient level of integration technical knowledge and skills are necessary but not sufficient. Organisational, management, and social skills are necessary too. In our research on organisation and management of business processes we have found that this last category of knowledge needs improvement for the largest part of design team members and managers. As designers are professionals who have been employed because of their knowledge and skills, gained through prior academic or professional education, the question can be asked to what extent organisational, management, and social knowledge is included in this education. One way to answer this question is by studying the knowledge and skills deemed important for performing design tasks. An important source of this knowledge can be found in journal articles in the area of engineering design. The authors of these articles are in most cases also the ones transferring this knowledge to future designers. In this paper, a study of 94 recently published journals articles is described, which reveals, that organisational, management, and social skills are not yet a major focus of attention. In particular the number of empirical studies on the organisational, social, and managerial behaviour of designers in practical contexts is scarce in the engineering research community. These results will be confronted with results from management and social sciences research. We argue that the gap between these two fields of research needs to be bridged to better prepare designers for their task in current industrial contexts.

Abstract:
Available data provide a picture for the macro-economy of Colombia, agriculture, and infrastructure. Recent data on trends on public procurement were difficult to find within the scope of this rapid review. In 2020, macro-level employment figures show a large drop between February and April when COVID-19 lockdown measures were first introduced, followed by a gradual upward trend. In December 2020, the employment rate was 4.09 percentage points lower than the employment rate in December 2019. Macro-level figures from the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE) show that a higher percentage of men experienced job losses than women in November 2020. However, the evidence presented by the Universidad Nacional de Colombia based on the DANE great integrated house survey shows that a higher proportion of all jobs lost were lost by women in the second quarter. It may be that the imbalance shifted over time, but it is not possible to directly compare the data. Evidence suggests that women were disproportionately more burdened by home activities due to the closure of schools and childcare. There is also a suggestion that women who have lost out where jobs able to function during lockdowns with technology are more likely to be held by men. Literature also shows that women have lower levels of technology literacy. There is a lack of reliable data for understanding the economic impacts of COVID-19 for people living with disabilities. A report on the COVID-19 response and disability for the Latin America region recommends improving collaboration between policymakers and non-governmental organisations. Younger people experienced greater job losses. Data for November 2020 show 3.3 percent of the population aged under 25 lost their job compared to 1.8 percent of those employed between 24 and 54. Agriculture, livestock, and fishing increased by 2.8% in 2020 compared to 2019. And the sector as a whole grew 3.4% between the third and fourth quarters of 2020. In terms of sector differences, construction was harder hit by the initial mobility restrictions than agriculture. Construction contracted by 30.5% in the second quarter of 2020. It is making a relatively healthy recovery with reports that 84% of projects being reactivated following return to work. The President of the Colombian Chamber of Construction predicting an 8.4% growth in the construction of housing and other buildings in 2021.
