Are we there yet? A legal assessment and review of the concept of sustainable development under international law

Some of the most consistently utilized terms in international environmental law are “sustainable development” and “sustainability”. Sustainable development is mentioned in virtually every domestic, regional and international laws on environment, energy and natural resources. This has led to the contentions by some scholars that the concept of sustainable development has matured into customary inte

Organizational factors affecting product innovation capability: Findings from the Med-Tech industry

Research in innovation has resulted in much applicable knowledge in terms of tools, methods and processes. However, the challenge of allowing “space”, time and competence for innovation capability development is sparsely reported. The purpose of this research is to identify how organizational and behavioral factors affect product innovation capability and its development in organizations. The rese

Neuropsychological assessment of schizophrenic patients during a psychotic episode: persistent cognitive deficit?

Neuropsychological test performance and clinical symptoms were assessed in 14 schizophrenic patients at admission to and discharge from an acute inpatient psychiatric service. Despite significant clinical improvement at discharge, no major change in cognitive performance was observed. Furthermore, patients at discharge were significantly impaired compared with normal control subjects case-matched

A Dynamic Bounding Volume Hierarchy for Generalized Collision Detection

We propose a new dynamic and efficient bounding volume hierarchy for breakable objects undergoing structured and/or unstructured motion. Our object-space method is based on different ways to incrementally update the hierarchy during simulation by exploiting temporal coherence and lazy evaluation techniques. This leads to significant advantages in terms of execution speed. Furthermore, we also show

Optical Characterization of III-Nitride and II-V Semiconductor Nanowires

The optical properties of III-V semiconductor nanowires for optical devices have been investigated by photoluminescence spectroscopy, cathodoluminescence spectroscopy and cathodoluminescence imaging. The material systems that have been studied include the nitrides (InN, GaN and AlN) and ternaries, and a few common phosphides and arsenides. Due to the different optical properties of the materials,

Getting supply chain strategies involved in “E-commerce & Environment” - a research potentioal for LCA case studies

Based on a previous content analysis work, there is nowadays a need for assessing a list of strategies related to the management of supply chains and logistics discipline, such as postponement, customisation, centralisation/decentralisation, etc. The need for environmental assessment of these strategies stems from the challenging necessity for bridging two fields: logistics/supply chain management
