TL;DR: In this article, an empirical investigation is proposed by analysing seven case studies through the lenses of contingency theory, the strategic alignment perspective and the resource-based view of organisations, and a classification of the governance mechanisms on the basis of their level of collaboration and formalisation.

TL;DR: Of the targeted 65 compounds, 46 analytes were detected at levels above the method quantification limit (MQL) in wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) influent, 43 in WWTP effluent and 36 compounds in river water in the UK environment.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider ensembles of trajectories associated with large deviations of time-integrated quantities in stochastic models and show how they can be generated directly using auxiliary processes such as shearing and glassy relaxation.
Abstract: We consider ensembles of trajectories associated with large deviations of time-integrated quantities in stochastic models. Motivated by proposals that these ensembles are relevant for physical processes such as shearing and glassy relaxation, we show how they can be generated directly using auxiliary stochastic processes. We illustrate our results using the GlauberIsing chain, for which biased ensembles of trajectories can exhibit ferromagnetic ordering. We discuss the relation between such biased ensembles and quantum phase transitions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of the role of technology strategy in the development of a technology strategy, focusing on the problems of developing a clear approach to managing technology, at least for many Western corporations.

TL;DR: Higher levels of physical activity, in particular activity of moderate to higher intensities, are prospectively associated with lower levels of fat mass in early adolescence, likely to be important in the fight against obesity.
Abstract: Objective To investigate associations between physical activity at age 12 and subsequent adiposity at age 14. Design Prospective birth cohort study with data collected between 2003 and 2007. Setting Original recruitment in 1991-2 of 14 541 pregnant women living in the former County of Avon (United Kingdom). Participants At age 12, 11 952 children were invited to attend the research clinic. Of these, 7159 attended, and 4150 (1964 boys, 2186 girls) provided sufficient data on exposure, outcome, and confounding variables. Main outcome measure Fat mass at age 14, measured by dual emission x ray absorptiometry, associated with physical activity at age 12, measured by accelerometry. Results Prospective associations of fat mass at age 14 (outcome) with physical activity at age 12 (exposure) were strong for both total activity (accelerometer counts/min) and for daily amount of moderate-vigorous physical activity (min/day). An extra 15 minutes of moderate-vigorous physical activity per day at age 12 was associated with lower fat mass at age 14 in boys (by 11.9% (95% confidence interval 9.5% to 14.3%)) and girls (by 9.8% (6.7% to 12.8%)). The proportion of physical activity due to moderate-vigorous physical activity was between 20% and 30% in boys and girls at the two ages. Conclusions Higher levels of physical activity, in particular activity of moderate to higher intensities, are prospectively associated with lower levels of fat mass in early adolescence. Interventions to raise levels of physical activity in children are likely to be important in the fight against obesity.
