OBJECTIVES: Patients with hip or knee osteoarthritis (OA) may experience functional limitations in work settings. In the Cohort Hip and Cohort Knee study (CHECK) physical function was both self-reported and measured performance-based, using Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE). Relations between self-reported …

Assessment of the seismic vulnerability of the building stock in the earthquake-prone Marmara region of Turkey is of growing importance since such information is needed for reliable estimation of the losses that possible future earthquakes are likely to induce. The outcome of such loss assessment exercises …

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs) are used to quantify physical aspects of work capacity. Safety is a critical issue for clinical use of an FCE. Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP) are known to report a temporary increase in pain following an FCE, but it is not known whether …

Enterprise Services have been proposed as a more business-friendly form of web services which can help organizations bridge the gap between the IT capabilities and business benefits of Service Oriented Architecture.

This study (re)tests the relationship between planning and transfer success. Previous studies show that planning increases satisfaction, but find no or only weak relations to transfer effectiveness. 76 Dutch SME business owners, who succeeded in the transfer, were surveyed. To improve on previous studies …

In this research (critical) success factors for Business Process Management Systems implementation are identified and qualitatively validated. Furthermore a list of critical success factors is constructed. Based on the identified factors a BPMS implementation approach is suggested. Future research consists …

With the globalisation process and the accompanying loss of sovereignty of the nation states in mind, I take a closer look at Higher Education Policy in a European perspective. The theoretical framework is constructed by Hedmo, Sahlin-Andersson and Wedlin, researchers at Uppsala University. They state …
