This chapter represents the case study on Rosia Montana Gold Corporation. We assumed from the beginning of our research that the 2010 Annual Report issued by Rosia Montana Gold Corporation has the prototype of an integrated report. As we can deduct from the research methodology section, a report becomes an integrated report if it complies with the conceptual model based on the IIRC content elements and principles, capital, value creation, and accountability, environmental and CSR information extracted from IFRS/ IASB requirements.

Insular Ecosystems

This article aims to evaluate the resources and capabilities in insular regions, and also to understand how value creation and commercialization take place in the existing ecosystems. A qualitative research methodology was followed through a case study, incorporating interviews with incubators managers of the insular regions of Portugal (Azores and Madeira). The results show some difficulties as a result of the ecosystem's insularity. To shorten the insular regions dissymmetry compared to other non-insular regions, a new model is proposed to help these regions overcome their economic and social problems.

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the effect of knowledge management on value creation in Icelandic firms. The aim is to examine the ways KM contributes to value creation, and measure the ways in which KM affects customer capital, innovation, and human capital. Given the limited number of firms in the survey with KM programmes, the findings should be seen more as a case study of Icelandic SMEs. The main conclusions are that firms which have adopted KM programmes and strategies have increased employee skills more than other firms; are better at attracting staff; and manifest improved decision making. The same goes for customer handling, innovation, and competitive standing. In general, this means that KM contributes to value creation by enhancing employee skills and innovation which, in turn, strengthen customer handling skills and the firm’s competitive advantage. A conception model based on these findings is also presented in the paper.

Value Model

With the emergence and development of servitization, more and more enterprises are turning from product focus to service focus. Service is customer-oriented, and driven by customer requirements. Value is the goal pursued by all actors in the service. In order to analyze the mechanism of multi-actor collaborative value creation in the service process, this paper proposes a method for building a service process value model, based on process mining. Driven by the raw data and an event log of service activities and processes in the real world, stored in the service system, the method uses process mining techniques and combines domain knowledge to describe the construction steps of the service process value model at the conceptual level. We focus on the specific processes and activities in the service, and mainly consider the value creation of the activity. The model proposed in this paper aims, to reflect how service actors co-create value in the actual execution of service processes, and to help service actors achieve their value goals. We use a case study inspired by an industrial case to validate our idea. Moreover, we develop a new plug-in, based on the α-algorithm for ProM, to realize the model construction in the case study.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the development of key supply chain capabilities in the Indian public sector-run liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) supply chain. This case study has relevance to emerging markets grappling with problems caused by monopolies and subsidies. Furthermore, this case study not only aims to improve operations of the LPG supply chain, but also re-designs its supply network to meet customers’ expectations. It illustrates value creation through growth in non-domestic sales, a reduction in consumption of subsidized LPG as a consequence of better understanding of customer needs and customer diversity, process re-engineering and deployment of ICT systems, and change management and capability building across various LPG stakeholders. Design/methodology/approach An interpretive research methodology is applied, using an illustrative single case study of the Indian public sector-run LPG supply chain. The research methodology is iterative and exploratory in nature, consisting of a back and forth process between extant literature and the field, as well as in-depth discussions/interviews with senior management, distributors, and consumers. Findings Key supply chain capabilities of an integrated and seamless ICT system, detection and blocking of duplicate/ghost connections, the capping of entitlements, and coordination and collaboration across various stakeholders result in value creation for all stakeholders. When such collaboration across stakeholders’ spans both vertically and horizontally through the supply chain, change management and capability building drive value creation through policy interventions and initiatives. Practical implications This study provides an illustrative example of meeting customers’ expectations, increasing consumer convenience, and improving service levels, amidst the complex subsidy challenges in LPG distribution in India. The economic and environmental benefits, as well as increased customer satisfaction, from policy interventions regarding value creation in supply chains, have implications for similar public sector-run schemes. Social implications As a result of the various policy changes, the LPG subsidy was restricted to legitimate customers, reducing the fiscal burden on the Indian Government. Furthermore, seamless ICT-introduced efficiencies for government, distributers, and customers were attained. Originality/value This research articulates the capture, creation, and appropriation of value through the deployment of new supply chain initiatives in a large, complex environment, in particular the public sector-run LPG supply chain.

Twitter and Microblogging are two separate entities but completes each other. Both of them can be used as language learning tools and their potential has been proved by several scholars. This study tries to examine students’ experiences in integrating microblogging with twitter. It is also study about the beneficial roles of microblogging with Twitter in language learning, its relation to writing, and its appropriateness in language learning. This study employs a qualitative research methodology, and case study as its research design. Semi-structured interviews and questionnaires were employed in this study to find out about participants' views about microblogging and Twitter. From this study, it can be concluded that the participants of the study underwent various experiences during the implementation of microblogging with Twitter. They also felt that microblogging with Twitter at some point advantages them to systematically arrange their ideas, and allows them to choose appropriate diction of their ideas. They also stated that Twitter can be an appropriate means in language learning, especially in English writing<em>.</em>

AbstractThe present essay investigates the potential of generative representation applied to the study of relief perspective architectures realized in Italy between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In arts, and architecture in particular, relief perspective is a three-dimensional structure able to create the illusion of great depths in small spaces. A method of investigation applied to the case study of the Avila Chapel in Santa Maria in Trastevere in Rome (Antonio Gherardi 1678) is proposed. The research methodology can be extended to other cases and is based on the use of a Relief Perspective Camera, which can create both a linear perspective and a relief perspective. Experimenting mechanically and automatically the perspective transformations from the affine space to the illusory space and vice versa has allowed us to see the case study in a different light.

In this paper, we examine the concept of the social balance sheet (SBS) and its evolution in corporate social reports that large companies have to issue today in their yearly statements. The SBS allows companies to evaluate their compliance with corporate social responsibility during a specific period and quantify its level of accomplishment. From a methodological perspective, this research analyzed the information that should be contained in the SBS report comparing economic value added (EVA) with other social value added statements (SVA), analyzing also in detail the case of Spain’s Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA) bank as one of the pioneers in offering social reports. Along with this study, their metrics following EVA were recalculated and a more academic SVA statement was proposed for this specific case.
