Compensation practices in the lodging industry: Does top management pay affect corporate performance?
(Elsevier, 2014-04)The current study examines the relationship between executive compensation and firm performance in the U.S. lodging industry. It is not clear-cut whether performance leads to compensation or compensation drives firm ... -
Competition in a populist authoritarian regime: the June 2018 dual elections in Turkey
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-07-03)This article examines the June 2018 presidential and parliamentary elections in Turkey. I maintain that Turkey's populist authoritarian regime context simultaneously hyperpoliticised and depoliticised the electoral process, ... -
Competitive implications of software open-sourcing
(Elsevier, 2012-12)This paper is concerned with the economic trade-offs associated with open-sourcing, the business strategy of releasing free open-source versions of commercial software products. The effect of the release of open-source ... -
Competitive strategies in the airline industry
(IGI Global, 2022)The airline industry is a dynamic industry with intense competition. Deregulation, the international competition structure, and economic and COVID-19-like crises make the sector even more fierce. In this chapter, airline ... -
A Complete procedure for predicting and improving the performance of HAWT's
(IOP Publishing, 2014)A complete procedure for predicting and improving the performance of the horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) has been developed. The first process is predicting the power extracted by the turbine and the derived rotor ... -
Completing the missing link in building design process: Enhancing post-occupancy evaluation method for effective feedback for building performance
(Elsevier, 2015-07)This paper provides a review of the improvements in the evaluation of building performance and introduces a new method for post-occupancy evaluation (POE) to complete the missing link in the building design process. Existing ... -
A complex adaptive system of systems approach to human–automation interaction in smart grid
(Wiley, 2015)This chapter expresses three cognitive genres: descriptive genre, normative/prescriptive genre, and know-how genre. The descriptive genre introduces and discusses on the following disciplines: the core concepts of complexity, ... -
Composing domain-specific physical models with general-purpose software modules in embedded control software
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014-02)A considerable portion of software systems today are adopted in the embedded control domain. Embedded control software deals with controlling a physical system, and as such models of physical characteristics become part ... -
Composing offer sets to maximize expected payoffs
(Digital Commons, 2016)Firms are increasingly using clickstream and transactional data to tailor product offerings to visitors at their site. Ecommerce websites have the opportunity, at each interaction, to offer multiple items (referred to as ... -
Composite cold-formed steel rubberised concrete building framed systems
(Avestia Publishing, 2022)In this research, with the use of cold-formed steel (CFS) sections in-filled with rubberized concrete (RuC), a new low-carbon construction system is developed and assessed for its structural resilience and environmental ... -
Composite fading model for aerial MIMO FSO links in the presence of atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors
(IEEE, 2021-06)In this letter, we introduce accurate approximation expressions for composite fading channel model and outage probability of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) free space optical (FSO) link between two unmanned aerial ... -
The composition of descriptive representation
(Cambridge University Press, 2023)How well do governments represent the societies they serve? A key aspect of this question concerns the extent to which leaders reflect the demographic features of the population they represent. To address this important ... -
Comprehensive parameters for the definition of nearly zero energy and cost optimal levels considering the life cycle energy and thermal comfort of school buildings
(Elsevier, 2021-12-15)There has been an increasing interest in studying energy efficiency in buildings in the recent years, as they account for a significant portion of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. While most of ... -
Comprehensive study on UAV-based FSO links for high-speed train backhauling
(The Optical Society, 2021-09-20)In this paper, we introduce the idea of using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based free-space optical communication systems to backhaul high-speed trains. We introduce a composite channel model that includes effects of both ... -
