Supplier selection for framework agreements in humanitarian relief
(Wiley, 2014-06)In this study, we consider the supplier selection problem of a relief organization that wants to establish framework agreements (FAs) with a number of suppliers to ensure quick and cost-effective procurement of relief ... -
Supporting preschool children’s executive functions: Evidence from a group-based play intervention
(Springer, 2023-12)The current study endeavors to assess the impact of the Preschool Executive Functions Intervention Program (PEFIP) on children's executive functions. A quasi-experimental design was employed, encompassing both pre-test and ... -
Suppression and azimuthal anisotropy of prompt and nonprompt J/psi production in PbPb collisions at root S-NN=2.76 TeV
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-04)The nuclear modification factor R-AA and the azimuthal anisotropy coefficient v(2) ofprompt and nonprompt (i.e. those from decays of b hadrons) J/psi mesons, measured from PbPb and pp collisions at root S-NN = 2.76 rfeV ... -
Suppression of excited Υ states relative to the ground state in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN =5.02 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2018-04-02)The relative yields of gamma mesons produced in pp and Pb-Pb collisions at root s(NN) = 5.02 TeV and reconstructed via the dimuon decay channel are measured using data collected by the CMS experiment. Double ratios are ... -
Suppression of ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) quarkonium states in PbPb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 TeV
(Elsevier, 2017)The production yields of ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) quarkonium states are measured through their decays into muon pairs in the CMS detector, in PbPb and pp collisions at the centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 2.76 ... -
Surface characterization driven CMP optimization for gallium nitride
(ECS, 2016)Gallium nitride is a hard and chemically inert material demoting high material removal rates in the chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) applications. This paper focuses on the optimization of the process conditions to ... -
Surface characterization of textiles for optimization of functional polymeric nano-capsule attachment
(Carl Hanser Verlag, 2019-09)Surface properties of textiles play an essential role in their functionalization with micro/nanometer-sized polymeric capsules containing active agents that can provide controlled release. The attached capsules provide ... -
Surface waves and atomic force microscope probe-particle near-field coupling: discrete dipole approximation with surface interaction
(Optics InfoBase, 2010-10)Evanescent waves on a surface form due to the collective motion of charges within the medium. They do not carry any energy away from the surface and decay exponentially as a function of the distance. However, if there is ... -
Surfactant mediated slurry formulations for Ge CMP applications
(Cambridge University Press, 2013)In this study, slurry formulations in the presence of self-assembled surfactant structures were investigated for Ge/SiO2 CMP applications in the absence and presence of oxidizers. Both anionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate-SDS) ... -
A survey of adjustable robust optimization
(Elsevier, 2019-09)Static robust optimization (RO) is a methodology to solve mathematical optimization problems with uncertain data. The objective of static RO is to find solutions that are immune to all perturbations of the data in a so-called ... -
A survey of decision support mechanisms for negotiation
(Springer, 2023)This paper introduces a dependency analysis and a categorization of conceptualized and existing economic decision support mechanisms for negotiation. The focus of our survey is on economic decision support mechanisms, ... -
A survey of software testing in the cloud
(IEEE, 2012)Cloud computing has emerged as a new computing paradigm that impacts several different research fields, including software testing. Testing cloud applications has its own peculiarities that demand for novel testing methods ... -
A survey on bitrate adaptation schemes for streaming media over HTTP
(IEEE, 2019)In this survey, we present state-of-the-art bitrate adaptation algorithms for HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS). As a key distinction from other streaming approaches, the bitrate adaptation algorithms in HAS are chiefly executed ... -
Survey on free space optical communication: a communication theory perspective
(IEEE, 2014)Optical wireless communication (OWC) refers to transmission in unguided propagation media through the use of optical carriers, i.e., visible, infrared (IR), and ultraviolet (UV) bands. In this survey, we focus on outdoor ... -
Survival of branching Brownian motion in a uniform trap field
(Elsevier, 2016-03)We study a branching Brownian motion Z evolving in Rd, where a uniform field of Poissonian traps are present. We consider a general offspring distribution for Z and find the asymptotic decay rate of the annealed survival ... -
Survived, but cannot prosper! Examining through a liberal feminist lens the impact of gender inequality on the success of women-owned entrepreneurial ventures
(Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd., 2017)In this chapter, we examine the impact of gender inequality on the success of women-owned ventures, specifically in terms of the latter’s rate of survival and revenue growth. Utilizing liberal feminist theory as the ... -
Sustainability challenges for the social-environmental systems across the Asian Drylands Belt
(IOP Publishing, 2022-02)This paper synthesizes the contemporary challenges for the sustainability of the social-environmental system (SES) across a geographically, environmentally, and geopolitically diverse region - the Asian Drylands Belt (ADB). ... -
Sustainable development from millennium 2015 to sustainable development goals 2030
(Wiley, 2019-07)In modern economies, the advancement of well‐being of the citizens should be in an inclusive and sustainable way. In this respect, the sustainable welfare targets should exclusively include three main pillars: economic ... -
Sustainable diets: the interaction between food industry, nutrition, health and the environment
(Sage, 2016-02)Everyday great amounts of food are produced, processed, transported by the food industry and consumed by us and these activities have direct impact on our health and the environment. The current food system has started ... -
Sustainable future technology evaluation with digital transformation perspective in air cargo industry using IF ANP method
(Springer, 2023)Sustainability is one of the most critical issues of recent years. Many companies that contribute to the global economy focus on sustainability studies more than ever. On the other hand, technological developments lead ...
