PROFiLE (Professional Literacy in English): a longitudinal study of the relationship between English as the medium of instruction and the development of professional English literacy

In many European universities, English is today used as a medium of instruction. One of the reasons is that it is believed that using English as a medium of instruction (EMI) can develop students’ subject-specific knowledge of English. This knowledge is seen as an asset in the workplace and often presented as providing a competitive advantage supporting professional success. The design of many edu

Internet sales channel effects on packaging logistics methodologies

The research area of packaging logistics naturally comprises the product, its package and packing operations, the physical distribution system and the information systems involved throughout the whole logistical value chain, including the end user. This paper focuses on the effects of the sales channel of the Internet on the research discipline of packaging logistics and aims at identifying method

Age at first birth and the risk of breast cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers.

An early age at first full-term birth is associated with a reduction in the subsequent development of breast cancer among women in the general population. A similar effect has not yet been reported among women who carry an inherited BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. We conducted a matched case–control study on 1816 pairs of women with a BRCA1 (n = 1405) or BRCA2 (n = 411) mutation in an attempt to elucidat

Outlook of Complexity and Complication on Logistics and Supply Chain Management

Purpose of this paper This paper aims to contribute to the logistics complexity discourse driven at the NOFOMA conference with a novel perspective on complication vs. complexity in studying and managing logistics and supply chains. Design/methodology/approach Research approach is based on description, exploration and analysis of root causes and origins of supply chain complication and complexity.

Failure disjoint paths

Given a set of commodities and a network where some arcs can fail while others are reliable, we first consider the problem of computing a minimum-cost pair of paths not sharing failing links. If a reliable link belongs to both paths then its cost is counted only once. We show that this problem can be solved in strongly polynomial time. Second, we consider a routing problem where each commodity can
