    Contextual factors and contingent reward leadership: employer adoption of telecommuting

    Get PDF
    Using a contingency perspective, this paper examines the conditions under which telecommuting is most likely to be adopted with data obtained from a sample of 122 CEOs. We hypothesized that telecommuting fits better in younger organizations, firms with a higher proportion of women and international employees in workforce, and companies that offer variable pay. We found evidence that confirm the prediction that telecommuting, a high proportion of international employees, and the use of variable compensation as an internal control mechanism tend to go hand in hand.

    Career choice is a critical moment for any student. However, many students worldwide change of path during the first academic year. Vocational tests are tools to help students choose an upper education career by providing information about their abilities and interests. However, some of them are very difficult to apply high costs, availability, or not validated at diverse populations. Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence test is a popular test that measures the brain’s performance abilities in nine areas. Unlike IQ’s test, Gardner Test is helpful to understand students’ strengths and learning styles. Vocational tests and Multiple Intelligence test measure students’ abilities and interests. This research shows the implementation of a recommendation system based on the Gardner test, we considering familiar variables and results of a basic knowledge test. For validation, we compare it with a standard vocational test. Our system recommends a top five of careers with 88.2% success and 93.3% for the top one. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG

    ARTICULO DE INVESTIGACION IDEXADO EN JCR CON FACTOR DE IMPACTO 2.4In this research, we present a data recovery scheme for wireless sensor networks. In some sensor networks, each node must be able to recover the complete information of the network, which leads to the problem of the high cost of energy in communication and storage of information. We proposed a modified gossip algorithm for acquire distributed measurements and communicate the information across all nodes of the network using compressive sampling and Gossip algorithms to compact the data to be stored and transmitted through a network. The experimental results on synthetic data show that the proposed method reconstruct better the signal and in less iterations than with a similar method using a thresholding algorithm

    The main purpose of this article is to make a descriptive and critical analysis of the mechanisms of referendum and implementation that were carried out in the framework of the “final agreement for the ending of the conflict and the construction of a stable and lasting peace between the Government and the Farc-EP”. For this purpose, the referendum issue will be analyzed from the point of view of the suitability of the chosen mechanism to consult the people, while the issue of implementation will be addressed from the perspective of normative production, material of execution, pertinence of the chosen implementation mechanisms in terms of legitimacy, effectiveness and convenience.El artículo que se acomete a continuación tiene como propósitos centrales hacer un análisis descriptivo y crítico de los mecanismos de refrendación e implementación que se a llevaron a cabo en el marco del “acuerdo final para la terminación del conflicto y la construcción de una paz estable y duradera entre el Gobierno y las Farc-EP”. Para lo cual se analizará la refrendación desde el punto de vista de la idoneidad del mecanismo escogido para consultar al pueblo, y en cuanto a la implementación se abordará desde el enfoque de producción normativa y desde el enfoque el material de ejecución, la pertinencia de los mecanismos de implementación escogidos en términos de legitimidad, eficacia y conveniencia

    La prescriptibilidad del derecho de petición de herencia en el código civil peruano (Propuesta legislativa modificatoria del artículo 664 del Código Civil)

    El presente estudio de investigación parte del análisis interpretativo del art. 664 de CC peruano, el cual parte por establecer que supuestos previstos en acción petitoria son imprescriptibles, esto debe, entenderse que la imprescriptibilidad a la que alude este dispositivo legal debe entenderse, primero que no es “extintiva” o liberatoria porque el derecho personal como heredero es perpetuo, no se extingue por efecto del transcurso del tiempo. De ahí que, tras exponer en detalle la propuesta en dicho precepto legal, en ese sentido, se ha considerado, sin duda, la enorme importancia de esta acción, en base al derecho de toda persona de poder contar con el patrimonio que le corresponde y que, por diversas razones, no posee, luego de una sucesión. Pero, lo reiteramos, más allá de la importancia de esta acción, lo que correspondería es formularnos de si acaso se podría interpretar que en la eventualidad de que el artículo 664 del CC no hubiese señalado la imprescriptibilidad de la acción petitoria de herencia, dicha acción seria imprescriptible, más aun, dicha regla general de imprescriptibilidad es aplicado a todo los supuestos previstos en el art. 664 teniendo en consideración la existencia de su derecho en cada pretensión. Aquí tampoco cabe duda de que, independientemente de la gravedad del tema controvertido, la respuesta negativa se impone, pues fuera de cualquier otra consideración jurídica, no tendríamos ninguna razón absolutamente contundente la imprescriptibilidad de dicha acción, a menos que la ley –como en efecto, lo ha hecho– señale su carácter imprescriptible. Entonces de no haberse precisado en la ley su carácter imprescriptible, tendríamos que recurrir a analizar cuál de los plazos generales de prescripción, establecidos por el artículo 2001 del Código Civil, le sería aplicable, esto último para una mejor tutela de derechos y seguridad jurídica.This research study of the art interpretive analysis. 664 Peruvian CC, which part to establish that cases provided for in petitoria action are imprescriptible, it should be understood that the Non-referred to by this legal device to be understood, first it is not "statute" or liberatory because the personal right as heir is perpetual, is not extinguished by the effect over time. Thus, after describing in detail the proposal in that legal precept, in that sense, it has been considered undoubtedly the enormous importance of this action, based on the right of everyone to have the rightful heritage and who, for various reasons it does not own, after a succession. But, I reiterate, beyond the importance of this action, which would correspond is ask ourselves whether anything could be interpreted that in the event that Article 664 of the CC had not indicated the applicability of the petitoria action of inheritance, such action imprescriptible would, moreover, that general rule of applicability is applied to all the cases provided for in art. 664 taking into account the existence of the right in each claim. Here it is also clear that, regardless of the severity of the controversial issue, the negative response is necessary, because outside of any legal consideration, we would have no absolutely compelling reason the applicability of such action, unless the law, as indeed , it has done- point their imprescriptible character. Then his imprescriptible not been specified in the law, we would have to resort to analyze which of the general limitation period established by Article 2001 of the Civil Code would apply, the latter for better protection of rights and legal certainty.Tesi

    El objeto de este estudio fue la identificación de tendencias en la producción de café. Donde se analizaron estadísticas cafeteras a nivel nacional, considerando reportes de la Organización Internacional del Café (ICO), el Sistema de Información Agropecuaria y la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros (FNC). Los factores relacionados con la variabilidad climática, el incremento del precio de producción, la escasez de mano de obra y la volatilidad del precio del café afectan la industria cafetera y pueden ser causas estructurales de las tendencias decrecientes en la producción, encontradas en algunos países productores y en algunos departamentos tradicionalmente caficultores de Colombia. La inteligencia de negocios, vela por la democratización de los datos, por tener una madurez de ellos y contar con una analítica predicativa.The object of this study was the identification of trends in coffee production.

    Plant diseases represent a major economic and environmental problem in agriculture and forestry. Upon infection, a plant develops symptoms that affect different parts of the plant causing a significant agronomic impact. As many such diseases spread in time over the whole crop, a system for early disease detection can aid to mitigate the losses produced by the plant diseases and can further prevent their spread [1]. In recent years, several mathematical algorithms of search have been proposed [2,3] that could be used as a non-invasive, fast, reliable and cost-effective methods to localize in space infectious focus by detecting changes in the profile of volatile organic compounds. Tracking scents and locating odor sources is a major challenge in robotics, on one hand because odour plumes consists of non-uniform intermittent odour patches dispersed by the wind and on the other hand because of the lack of precise and reliable odour sensors. Notwithstanding, we have develop a simple robotic platform to study the robustness and effectiveness of different search algorithms [4], with respect to specific problems to be found in their further application in agriculture, namely errors committed in the motion and sensing and to the existence of spatial constraints due to land topology or the presence of obstacles
