The impact of SARS on China's human resources: implications for the labour market and level of unemployment in the service sector in Beijing,Guangzhou and Shanghai

In this paper, we examine the effects of SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) on China's human resources, its labour-market and its level of employment and unemployment, looking specifically at what was one of its economically most vulnerable points, the hotel industry. The paper hypothesizes that the greatest impact would be on human resources in the service-industries and on particular sub-sectors, such as employment in hotels, located in three main cities in the PRC, in Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, catering to both overseas as well as domestic tourism. It tentatively concludes that the almost dramatic demand and supply ‘shocks’ may have directly affected both the demand for and the supply of labour in the sub-sector, with discernable employment consequences.     

The devolution of HR to the line: Implications for perceptions of people management effectiveness

The devolution of human resource responsibilities from human resource managers to line managers is both a growing and global trend. A number of authors has suggested that there are positive as well as negative consequences of devolution. The current study conducted a survey of US human resource managers to explore the effect of devolution on human resource managers' perceptions of people management effectiveness in their organizations. Results revealed a positive effect of devolution on perceived people management effectiveness. However, this effect was qualified by an interaction between devolution and line support. Contrary to expectation, this interaction revealed that providing line managers with training and support for their human resource responsibilities had a greater positive impact on perceived effectiveness in organizations that had not devolved (non devolvers) compared to those that had (devolvers).     

High involvement work practices and firm performance

During the past two decades the chain of three links organizational strategy – human resources practices – organizational performance has been deeply analysed. However, the mediator role of organizational structure in the first link of this chain remains relatively uninvestigated. In this article we analyse a model of relationships among organizational strategy, organizational structure, human resources practices, and organizational performance. Through a structural equation methodology applied to a sample of 183 Spanish companies, we will try to confirm that organizations with differentiation strategies are more likely to implement high involvement work practices. As a novelty we will introduce organizational structure as a mediator of this relationship. For that we will use the construct control mechanisms (centralization, formalization and socialization). Further, we will analyse the effect on firm performance of these proposed relationships among differentiation strategy, control mechanisms and high involvement work practices.

灌片节水配套改造工程的必要性和可行性研究

文章以4个灌片为例,探讨了灌片节水配套改造工程的必要性和可行性。通过对项目区渠系水利用系数极低、实灌面积严重缩减以及水资源供需平衡进行分析,得出灌片节水配套改造工程的必要性;通过对典型工程的实际设计,得出灌片节水配套改造工程的可行性。     

基于信息感知模式的人力资源效能管理模式研究

在信息感知模式下对人力资源效能管理进行研究,是为了通过信息感知的形式,将管理者的管理理念灌输给员工,增强员工参与管理的意识,充分发挥企业员工的主观能动性。通过对信息感知-分解编码—信息对比—重新编码—信息重组的过程进行研究分析,构建了基于信息感知模式的人力资源效能管理模型。在人力资源效能管理模型中,影响信息感知效果的3个要素是信息感知量指数,信息感知度指数和信息感知时间。在对这3个要素起决定性作用的因素进行分析研究的基础上,推导出信息感知效果指数的数据模型,以此论证基于信息感知模式实现人力资源效能管理的有效性。

贪心算法求解最少资源问题的探讨

面对资源的日益紧缺,如何有效合理的利用资源一直是专家学者研究和探讨的热点问题。最少资源问题是对初步资源规划问题的探讨,可以为多个资源组合规划问题的基础研究提供有效的参考作用。传统的回溯法穷举虽然能找到最少资源问题的最优解但其时间复杂度会高于o(n!),往往耗时太多,不能满足问题的及时性。提出了一种以最早开始时间为贪心策略的求解最少资源问题的贪心算法,不仅能够找到最优解,而且其时间复杂度仅为o(n2),极大提高了算法的效率。
