Télécollaboration asymétrique en réalité virtuelle

2016

National audience; Nous présentons une première étude de combinaison de deux systèmes asymétriques de réalité virtuelle dans un contexte de travail collaboratif : un système de type CAVE et un casque immersif. L’architecture, de type serveur-client, permet une collaboration entre plusieurs utilisateurs. Les expériences sur une tâche de construction de puzzles en un temps limité, seul et en collaboration, montrent que l’utilisation combinée de systèmes asymétriques CAVE et casques permet d’améliorer les performances des utilisateurs. Par ailleurs les utilisateurs préfèrent le travail en collaboration et sont plus efficaces ensemble. Ces résultats ouvrent des perspectives intéressantes de com…

Este artículo versa sobre la integración de la telecolaboración, o intercambio intercultural en línea, en contextos de educación superior, para el desarrollo de la competencia intercultural en el aula inglés como lengua extranjera. Se analiza, desde la perspectiva de los estudiantes, un intercambio de telecolaboración en que participantes de España y de Estados Unidos colaboraron en grupos interculturales y plurinacionales para llevar a cabo una serie de tareas cuya complejidad cognitiva iba progresivamente en aumento: creación de un perfil digital, grabación de un vídeo de presentación, interacción multimodal (texto, audio, videoconferencia) para discutir y debatir los diferentes temas pro…

Internal Hernia Masquerading As Necrotizing Enterocolitis

2017

In extremely preterm infants, acute abdominal emergencies are fortunately less common with improving care. Spontaneous intestinal perforation and necrotizing enterocolitis are conditions where emergency surgery is most often needed. Conservative medical management and placement of temporary drain are often used in the initial management. Internal hernia (IH) is an uncommon cause of bowel obstruction in neonates, is difficult to diagnose and unfortunately are found only at autopsy. The presentation in preterm infants, distinction between these conditions, and the need for early diagnosis of IH are discussed.

Early intestinal perforation secondary to congenital mesenteric defects

2016

Abstract Gastrointestinal perforation (GIP) in preterm neonates may be idiopathic, due to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), or mechanical obstruction. The predominant cause of GIP in the neonatal period is NEC. Differential diagnosis with congenital malformations, including mesenteric defects leading to internal hernias, is mandatory if the onset is early. We describe two newborns with trans-mesenteric herniation resulting in GIP, and we discuss the presence of possible additional risk factors such as prematurity and predisposing vascular disruption in connective tissue disorders (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome), twinning, and use of assisted reproductive technologies. These cases prompted us to rev…

The Role of Entrepreneurial and Networking Orientations in Developing Marketing Capabilities of Born Global Firms

2017

The large multinational enterprises rely on their size and significant resources to develop marketing capabilities. On the other hand, little is known about how resource-constrained born global firms develop necessary marketing capabilities to operate in multiple international markets. This paper attempts to fill this gap conceptually by discussing relationships between entrepreneurial orientation, networking orientation, marketing capabilities, and performance in the context of born global firms. To fulfill this objective, research propositions are presented based on an extensive literature review. Preliminary conclusions and suggestions for further research are also provided.

The United Citizens Organization: Public-private partnerships in global governance

2020

Abstract Can Public-Private Partnerships be applied to global affairs and governance? This paper reviews the existing relations between public and private global actors. I argue that current international politics is largely an outcome of these relations. Although for the foreseeable future the role of traditional nation-states on the global scene should not be dismissed, they come under the constant pressure of different private actors, particularly of MNCs and NGOs. If this is the case, the question of global responsibility must be raised. It has been the traditional role of governments to stand for such societal values as security and prosperity, and be responsible for their citizens. Wi…

The Role of Language in Corporate Governance: The Case of Board Internationalization

2013

Multinational corporations internationalize their corporate boardrooms in order to capitalize on their commercial and financial internationalization. Board internationalization provides access to specialized knowledge and skills, broadens social networks and ensures greater transparency of strategic decision-making. The entry of a foreign board member is often coupled with a change in the working language of the board. The purpose of the present study is to explore and explain how increased language diversity influences decision-making and work processes of corporate boards. We draw on previous research on board internationalization, diversity and language in multinational corporations. Bas…

Prywatność w nowych mediach. Pozyskiwanie danych jako narzędzie realizacji biznesowych celów cyberkorporacji

2016

W czasach nowych mediów, za sprawą rozwoju Internetu i nowych technologii, społeczeństwo stało się bardziej otwarte i zaczęło inaczej podchodzić do kwestii prywatności. Ludzie w Internecie odkrywają się znacznie bardziej jak w rzeczywistości, masowo publikują prywatne zdjęcia i informacje. Trend ten wykorzystują i popularyzują współczesne cyberkorporacje, które dopatrzyły się w nim możliwości podporządkowania go własnym biznesowym celom. W tym celu zaoferowały użytkownikom sieci możliwość korzystania z ich darmowych narzędzi i platform, stając się w ten sposób idealistami propagującymi wolność informacji i możliwość nieskrępowanej komunikacji. Usługi te okazują się być jednak tylko z pozoru…
