Semantic discovery and reuse of business process patterns
Patterns currently play an important role in modern information systems (IS) development and their use has mainly been restricted to the design and implementation phases of the development lifecycle. Given the increasing significance of business modelling in IS development, patterns have the potential of providing a viable solution for promoting reusability of recurrent generalized models in the very early stages of development. As a statement of research-in-progress this paper focuses on business process patterns and proposes an initial methodological framework for the discovery and reuse of business process patterns within the IS development lifecycle. The framework borrows ideas from the domain engineering literature and proposes the use of semantics to drive both the discovery of patterns as well as their reuse

The drivers of Corporate Social Responsibility in the supply chain. A case study.
Purpose: The paper studies the way in which a SME integrates CSR into its corporate strategy, the practices it puts in place and
how its CSR strategies reflect on its suppliers and customers relations.
Methodology/Research limitations: A qualitative case study methodology is used. The use of a single case study limits the
generalizing capacity of these findings.
Findings: The entrepreneur’s ethical beliefs and value system play a fundamental role in shaping sustainable corporate strategy.
Furthermore, the type of competitive strategy selected based on innovation, quality and responsibility clearly emerges both in
terms of well defined management procedures and supply chain relations as a whole aimed at involving partners in the process of
sustainable innovation.
Originality/value: The paper presents a SME that has devised an original innovative business model. The study pivots on the
issues of innovation and eco-sustainability in a context of drivers for CRS and business ethics. These values are considered
fundamental at International level; the United Nations has declared 2011 the “International Year of Forestry”
Knowledge and Management Models for Sustainable Growth
In the last years sustainability has become a topic of global concern and a key issue in the strategic agenda of both business organizations and public authorities and organisations.
Significant changes in business landscape, the emergence of new technology, including social media, the pressure of new social concerns, have called into question established conceptualizations of competitiveness, wealth creation and growth.
New and unaddressed set of issues regarding how private and public organisations manage and invest their resources to create sustainable value have brought to light. In particular the increasing focus on environmental and social themes has suggested new dimensions to be taken into account in the value creation dynamics, both at organisations and communities level.
For companies the need of integrating corporate social and environmental responsibility issues into strategy and daily business operations, pose profound challenges, which, in turn, involve numerous processes and complex decisions influenced by many stakeholders. Facing these challenges calls for the creation, use and exploitation of new knowledge as well as the development of proper management models, approaches and tools aimed to contribute to the development and realization of environmentally and socially sustainable business strategies and practices
Performance Analysis For Wireless G (IEEE 802.11 G) And Wireless N (IEEE 802.11 N) In Outdoor Environment
This paper described an analysis the different capabilities and limitation of both IEEE technologies that has been utilized for data transmission directed to mobile device. In this work, we have compared an IEEE 802.11/g/n outdoor environment to know what technology is better. the comparison consider on coverage area (mobility), through put and measuring the interferences. The work presented here is to help the researchers to select the best technology depending of their deploying case, and investigate the best variant for outdoor. The tool used is Iperf software which is to measure the data transmission performance of IEEE 802.11n and IEEE 802.11g
