Track Location Enhancements for Perspective View Displays

The importance of international markets is constantly emphasized for small and medium enterprises(SMEs). In previous studies, technological innovation capabilities were emphasized as a factor that enables SMEs to compete in the international market. To this end, SMEs need to cooperate with external partners to strengthen their technological innovation capabilities to thus improve their international performance. With the perspective view of open innovation, this research explores the effects of relational capital and technological innovation capability on international performance, with a particular focus on the moderating effect of alliance proactiveness. Building on previous literature regarding internationalization, technological innovation, and alliance proactiveness, research hypotheses were developed and tested using data collected from 175 SMEs. A hierarchical regression analysis was applied. The analysis showed that, first, relational capital had a significant effect on the technological innovation capability. Second, technological innovation capability has a significant influence on the international performance. Third, technological innovation capability mediated the relationship between relational capital and international performance. Finally, alliance proactiveness was found to moderate the relationship between technological innovation capability and international performance. The key research findings imply that relational capital and alliance proactiveness are the key factors of international performance, as they improved the development of the technological innovation capability.

The density inversion of gravity data is commonly achieved by discretizing the subsurface into prismatic cells and calculating the density of each cell. During this process, a weighting function is introduced to the iterative computation to reduce the skin effect during the inversion. Thus, the computation process requires a significant number of matrix operations, which results in low computational efficiency. We have adopted a density inversion method with nonlinear polynomial fitting (NPF) that uses a polynomial to represent the density variation of prismatic cells in a certain space. The computation of each cell is substituted by the computation of the nonlinear polynomial coefficients. Consequently, the efficiency of the inversion is significantly improved because the number of nonlinear polynomial coefficients is less than the number of cells used. Moreover, because representing the density change of all of the cells poses a significant challenge when the cell number is large, we adopt the use of a polynomial to represent the density change of a subregion with fewer cells and multiple nonlinear polynomials to represent the density changes of all prism cells. Using theoretical model tests, we determine that the NPF method more efficiently recovers the density distribution of gravity data compared with conventional density inversion methods. In addition, the density variation of a subregion with 8 × 8 × 8 prismatic cells can be accurately and efficiently obtained using our cubic NPF method, which can also be used for noisy data. Finally, the NPF method was applied to real gravity data in an iron mining area in Shandong Province, China. Convergent results of a 3D perspective view and the distribution of the iron ore bodies were acquired using this method, demonstrating the real-life applicability of this method.

Perspective View

The Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) model of care has been long considered to be effective in the management of patients with severe mental illness (SMI) in most Western countries. The implementation of the original ACT model may be particularly challenging in rural and remote communities with small and dispersed populations and lack of adequate mental health services. Rural programs may have to adapt the model and modify the ACT fidelity standards to accommodate these limitations, and this is the rationale for the introduction of more flexible, hybrid ACT models. In rural Greece, the so called Mobile Mental Health Units (MMHUs) are well-established community mental health services. For patients with SMI that have difficulties engaging with treatment services, the new hybrid ACT model has been recently launched. The objective of this manuscript is to present the recently launched hybrid ACT model in rural areas in Greece and to explore the challenges and limitations in its implementation from the experience of a team of mental health professionals with ACT experience. Referral criteria have not been strictly set, but the number of previous relapses and hospitalizations is taken under consideration, as well as the history of poor treatment adherence and disengagement from mental health services. The main limitation in the implementation of the hybrid ACT service is that it has been introduced in several areas in the absence of a pre-existing community mental health service. This may impact referrals and limit focus on the difficult cases of patients with SMI, thus making the evaluation of the model inapplicable.
