Summary: The core challenge in network innovation is how to govern resource interactions. In this paper, the author suggests using Alderson's (1957) model of organised behaviour systems to understand the governance of resource interactions in selected sets of suppliers. Through a longitudinal case study of Unilever and its supplier network, the extended case method is applied to explore network innovation governance. Alderson's framework is utilized to analyze the assignment and assortment processes for governing network innovation through centralized space and time interactions.

Summary: Drawing on social identity theory and self-verification theory, this study aims to delineate the relationship between global identity and global social networking sites usage, providing insights into the role of global identity in shaping SNS behavior through users' motivation. Empirical evidence from global SNS users in Austria, Indonesia and Thailand show differences across countries, indicating the existence of country-specific patterns. This research extends the current literature on digital and international marketing and offers nuanced insights for SNS managers to tailor marketing strategies in different country contexts.

Summary: This study measures the volatility of natural resources from a global perspective and finds that total natural resources rents, coal rents, and oil rents exhibit volatility over the selected time period, while natural gas rents do not. Negative shocks have a greater and stronger influence on these volatile variables, and events such as energy price hikes, wars, and financial crises report higher volatility.

Summary: This article introduces a global virtual data space called GVDS, which aims to provide unified data access across different supercomputing centers. GVDS integrates parallel/distributed file systems of these centers to create a virtual space with massive storage capability. Users in GVDS are organized into groups for easy management and can share, collaborate, and perform computations on stored data.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of geological features and anthropogenic activities on element distribution in the Tohoku region of Japan. It found that geological features, especially igneous rock distribution, were the primary factor influencing elemental distribution, rather than human activities. The study also clarified the origins of toxic elements and revealed potential rare-earth element mineral resources in the region.

Summary: A new model is proposed for offloading task execution in heterogeneous environments, considering nodes computing capacity, network bandwidth, and geographical location. Two optimization strategies are suggested, and the simulation results show that the staged model provides the optimal solution in most scenarios.

Summary: This study analyzes the relationship between natural resources, crude oil prices, and economic performance at a global level and finds evidence of the natural resource curse paradox. The impact of both variables on economic performance is positive in lower quantiles but negative in medium and higher quantiles. Additionally, there is a two-way causal connection between economic performance and natural resources, as well as between economic performance and oil prices.

Summary: This research study investigates the relationship between natural resources, commodity prices volatility, and global economic performance from 1970 to 2021. The findings suggest that all variables are vulnerable, particularly during global crisis events. There is a bidirectional causal association between natural resources commodity price volatility and global economic performance, but the impact of natural resources price volatility is only significant in the short run, while economic performance influences price volatility in the long run. Furthermore, global economic performance has a unidirectional impact on crude oil prices.

Summary: In this article, the authors propose a novel framework called BigEye, which transfers limited data from distributed producers to a central summarizer to achieve highly accurate detection and concise visual summarization of key events. BigEye addresses several challenges including identifying events with high global interest, reconciling inconsistent metadata, and retrieving visual summaries of key events within bandwidth constraints. The results show that BigEye achieves the same accuracy as a system with centralized data while transferring only 1% of the raw data volume, and reduces the average delay by 67% compared to baseline approaches.

Summary: The regional uplift of Madagascar is proposed to be generated and maintained by mantle dynamical processes. Through a combined analysis of multiple observational constraints, it is suggested that around 1 km of topography was formed during the Neogene period. Studies on rare earth element concentrations in Neogene rocks indicate partial melting of the mantle occurred at varying depths and temperatures.

Summary: The study aims to understand the upper mantle structure through analyzing volcanic rocks in eastern Australia. Results suggest that volcanic activity in the region may be caused by the passage of mantle plumes, leading to significantly higher mantle temperatures, thinning lithosphere, and uplift of the Eastern Highlands.
