Avian Diversity And Abundance Along A Gradient Of Bayou Development In Houston, Daniella Muallem, Daniel M. Brooks

Bulletin of the Texas Ornithological Society

Eighteen surveys recorded aquatic bird species at three Houston bayou transects with differing channelization. Most diversity and abundance occurred at the most channelized site, Brays Bayou. Only one species was shared across sites. Results reflect habitat differences more than weather effects.

Throwing Good Money After Bad? Board Connections And Conflicts In Bank Lending, Philip E. Strahan, Randall S. Kroszner Dec 2001

Throwing Good Money After Bad? Board Connections And Conflicts In Bank Lending, Philip E. Strahan, Randall S. Kroszner

Coase-Sandor Institute for Law & Economics Research Paper Series

This paper investigates the frequency of connections between banks and non-financial firms through board linkages and whether those connections affect lending and borrowing behavior. Although a board linkages may reduce the costs of information flows between the lender and borrower, a board linkage may generate pressure for special treatment of a borrower not normally justifiable on economic grounds. To address this issue, we first document that banks are heavily involved in the corporate governance network through frequent board linkages. Banks tend to have larger boards with a higher proportion of outside directors than non- financial firms, and bank officer-directors tend …

Supplying Craft Breweries With Locally Produced Ingredients, Food Processing Center

Food Processing Center: Reports

This report summarizes the initial findings of a survey of 52 craft breweries (brewpubs, microbreweries, and regional breweries) in the states of Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. The head brewer or owner/operator was surveyed to determine the craft brewing industries’ level of interest in purchasing locally grown and produced grains and locally produced malt, as well as the procurement needs for the ingredients they purchase.

The craft brewing industry, which mushroomed in the early to mid 1990’s, slowed to a crawl in the late 1990’s, however, the industry began to rebound in 2000 as volume for craft brewers …

Km In Wipro Infotech : A Case Review, Anurag Srivastava, N Rajendhiran, Nandini Prasanna, Satish Prasad

IIMB Management Review

In recent times knowledge management has become a critical initiative for organisations. According to Tom Stewart1, an organisation that is not managing knowledge is not paying attention to business. Every company needs to answer the questions What do we know? and Where is the knowledge? Companies around the world have begun to make real business contributions through practices associated with knowledge management. Practices centred around KM have started yielding substantial results in global companies like Buckman Laboratories, Arthur Andersen, Microsoft, E&Y, Chevron, HP, BP Amoco, Booz Allen. More and more companies are initiating KM in their organisations to gain competitive …


Successful Branding By Pran K Choudhury, Universities Press, 2000., Vijay G Vancheswar Dec 2001

Successful Branding By Pran K Choudhury, Universities Press, 2000., Vijay G Vancheswar

IIMB Management Review

Successful Branding is a good amalgam of real-life Indian case studies which highlight the role of branding in successful marketing. While most of the cases revolve around fast moving consumer brands, given the sensitivity of this category to market perceptions, houdhury does provide interesting cases of brand creation in low interest category commodity products such as cement(Ambuja Cement) and intermediate products such as denim (Arvind Mills).


Fast Implementation Of Depth Contours Using Topological Sweep, Kim Miller, Suneeta Ramaswami, Peter Rousseeuw, Toni Sellarès, Diane Souvaine, Ileana Streinu, Anja Struyf Dec 2001

Fast Implementation Of Depth Contours Using Topological Sweep, Kim Miller, Suneeta Ramaswami, Peter Rousseeuw, Toni Sellarès, Diane Souvaine, Ileana Streinu, Anja Struyf

Computer Science: Faculty Publications

The concept of location depth was introduced in statistics as a way to extend the univariate notion of ranking to a bivariate configuration of data points. It has been used successfully for robust estimation, hypothesis testing, and graphical display. These reguire the computation of depth regions, which form a collection of nested polygons. The center of the deepest region is called the Tukey median. The only available implemented algorithms for the depth contours and the Tukey median are slow, which limits their usefulness. In this paper we describe an optimal algorithm which computes all depth contours in &Ogr;(n 2) time …
