AN EVALUATION OF PROCESS‐ORIENTED SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORKS

Supply chain management (SCM) is implemented by integrating corporate functions using business processes within and across companies. Several process‐oriented frameworks for SCM have been proposed but only two of these provide sufficient detail to enable implementation. We evaluate the Supply‐Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) framework and The Global Supply Chain Forum (GSCF) framework using four criteria and identify their relative strengths and weaknesses.     

Disclosure of reserve quantum in the extractive industries

We explore why some firms in the extractive industries disclose mineral reserve quantum in their annual reports and others do not. We propose that the firms' reserve disclosure policies are a function of the extent of information asymmetries, as well as information production, litigation and proprietary costs. More specifically, we propose that a firm's decisions to disclose reserves in the annual report are a function of the stage of the firm's operations, use of project financing, and the cost of measuring reserves. Empirical tests are confirmatory.

Industry specific effects in investment performance and valuation of firms

A necessary criterion for a performance measure in corporate governance is the degree to which it mirrors how well the management succeeds in maximizing firm value. Such a performance measure is marginal q which links changes in firm value to the investments undertaken by the management. Empirical studies of investment and performance based on marginal q have demonstrated the usefulness of this measure. Most research however, has mainly focused on long-term performance. This paper takes a short-term perspective and, based on the marginal q-theory, considers how firms’ market values change in the extreme stock price cycle of a stock market bubble. Using a data set of listed Swedish corporations we find an anomaly in form of a new industry specific effect that, in addition to investment, explains changes in firm value.

河南省战略性新兴产业发展的现状分析与策略选择

近年来,河南省以高新技术产业为主体的战略性新兴产业发展较快,成效显著,但同时也存在着总量规模小,产业集中度低,创新能力弱,体制、机制不完善等问题。十二五时期,河南省战略性新兴产业的发展面临着国内外激烈竞争的格局,存在着巨大的挑战和前所未有的机遇。从产业基础、资源禀赋、发展实践等多方面来看,河南省发展战略性新兴产业的策略选择,应定位于依托传统优势产业发展战略性新兴产业,并通过制定差异化的产业政策、推动传统优势产业的链式发展、发挥老工业基地的示范带动作用等措施来实施这一策略。     

人力资本与战略性新兴产业发展——基于105家上市公司的DEA-Malmquist指数分析

利用DEA-Malmquist指数,对我国7大战略性新兴产业2007年—2011年全要素生产率的变动做了纵向和横向比较,并进一步测算了各产业分别以人力资本和物质资本作为单一投入要素的Malmquist指数,即对战略性新兴产业全要素生产率分行业进行了要素分解,从而对人力资本投入对于培育和发展战略性新兴产业的重要性,以及各细分行业的人才战略实施情况有一个整体把握。结论认为要充分发挥人力资本的作用,依靠企业内部的高强度人才招聘和培训是其中一方面,而更应从价值链重构、产业结构调整的视阈中开拓人才战略的新思路。     

专业教学中培养学生科技文献查阅及写作能力

土木工程专业人才应该具备较强的科技文献查阅及写作能力。基于此,以《路基路面工程》的教学为例,阐述了教学中加强学生科技文献查阅及写作能力培养的重要性,分析了科技文献查阅及写作的要点和途径。在专业教学的同时,实施学生科技文献查阅及写作能力的培养可以划分为三个阶段,即起步阶段教师的悉心指导、中期学生自行科技论文选材及撰写,以及后期教师的质量点评。     

What drives agrifood firms to register for an Environmental Management System?

This paper examines empirically which factors determine voluntaryadoption of Environmental Management System (EMS) certification(ISO 14001 or EMAS) by agrifood industries. A discrete-choicemodel of EMS certification is applied to a sample of 1,000 Frenchagrifood firms. The findings suggest that management-relatedfactors drive certification more strongly than economic incentivesand provides a new perspective on Porter's theory of the doublebenefit of certification.     

低碳经济的发展方向和政策选择——基于辽宁省的分析

辽宁省低碳经济发展水平低于全国平均水平,在技术水平上也比较低.今后辽宁省低碳经济发展的方向应是继续促进节能减排和发展循环经济,重点是发展新兴低碳产业和低碳技术,实现产业结构调整.促进辽宁省低碳经济发展的对策主要是金融支持和财税优惠政策.     

公路边坡地质的分类问题探讨

对于公路边坡分类,大多是按分类原则就边坡的破坏形式进行分类,对于未变形边坡则很少进行分类。本文在总结公路工程边坡勘察成果的基础上,提出了适合公路工程的边坡工程地质分类,并将未变形边坡统分为岩质边坡、土质边坡和土石边坡,对岩质边坡按边坡体岩性和结构进行了细致分类,而对变形边坡则按其变形特征进行简要分类。
