No full textConducted within the global corporation of the Hewlett-Packard Company, (HP),this research examines employee and contractor responses to strategic implementation. The research environment is a relatively small UK group withinthe corporation that has continuously experienced significant change as new strategies were implemented. Employee and contractor responses to three separate cycles of change are analysed together with data drawn from the wider corporation by using a psychological contract framework, semi-structured interviewing, a research diary and secondary data from the literature and electronic sources. The research is essentially qualitative but draws on quantitative data where appropriate. A case study approach within an action research paradigm is the chosen methodology to allow consideration and triangulation of multiple sources of data relevant to the natural workplace setting. The research has confirmed a change from old or original psychological contracts to new contracts where employees and contractors are more insecure in, and more cynical of, their employment. This change is perceived as a
violation of their psychological contract and is causing employees and contractors to adopt a more mercenary approach to their employment with HP. The special bond between HP and its employees generated by the values and
egalitarian working environment created by its founders has been broken by new leadership. Acquisition of the Compaq Computer Company has further impacted employees and contractors resulting in declining morale and increasing scepticism about its proposed benefits. Indeed the very legitimacy of the acquisition and the leadership of HP are being questioned as HP changes to a new form. According to the founders, the values established that made HP successful in its first fifty years were expected to continue for at least another fifty years. This research shows how changing these values has collectively impacted
employees and contractors resulting in a major threat to the continuing existence of HP in its present form

Multiple Objective Programming Involving Differentiable (Hp, r)-invex Functions
No full textIn this paper, we introduce new types of generalized convex functions which include locally (Hp, r)-pre-invex functions and (Hp, r)-invex functions. Relationship between these two new classes of functions are established. We also present the conditions for optimality in differentiable mathematical programming problems where the functions considered are (Hp, r)-invex functions introduced in this paper.Este trabajo, establece nuevos tipos de funciones convexas generalizadas que incluyen localmente funciones (Hp, r) de pre-invex y funciones (Hp, r)-invex. La relacin entre estas dos nuevas clases de funciones estn establecidas. Tambin se presentan las condiciones de optimalidad en diferenciables problemas de programacin matemtica, donde las funciones consideradas en este artculo son funciones (Hp, r)-invex
Association of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection with hypoalbuminemia and dietary habits
No full textWe have recently conducted a large scale epidemiolgy study to
document the prevalence and risk factors for Hp infection among the
healthy elderly. Previous studies were limited by the small sample size.
Materials & methods Sera obtained from 1698 asymptomatic Chinese
subjects (239 males, 987 females; mean age 70.6 yrs, range 56-95 yrs)
were tested for anti-Hp IgG antibody by using the GAP IgG ELISA kits
(Bio-Rad). Their liver function tests and lipid profiles were also examined.
Dietary habits were evaluated by a standard questionnaire. Multivariate
analysis was performed to test the correlation between Hp infection and
these parameters (blood tests and dieiary habits).
Results 1226/1698 subjects (72.2%) were positive for anti-Hp antibody.
Overall, the males (78.1%) had a significantly higher Hp + rate than the
females (70.9%) (P<0.01). There was no appreciable difference in the
Hp+ rates for both sexes within each Centile between 56-95 years.
Furthermore, there was no evidence of singificant increase in Hp carrier
rates with advancing age among this population.
Hypoalbuminemia (< 40g/l) but not other biochemical parameters was
associated with a higher Hp + rates (p < 0.05). There was no correlation
between the lipid profiles (cholesterols & triglycerides) and Hp + rates. An
inverse relationship between the frequency of nuts consumption and Hp +
rates was observed (p < 0.01). Other dietary (consumption of fast food, sea
food, preserved food etc.) and cooking habits (type of cooking oil, boiled,
fried or grill etc.) had no influence on the Hp+ rates. ' :
Conclusions (1) The overall Hp + rate among the elderly Chinese in Hong
Kong was approx. 70%; it reaches a plateau between the age of 56-65 yrs.
(2) Men had significantly higher Hp carrier rates than women. (3)Hp+
rates did not increase with advancing age in the elderly between 56-95 yrs.
(4) Hypoalbuminemia was associated with higher Hp+ rates which may
reflect chronic underlying malnutrition. (5) Consuming nuts frequently
may have a protective effect against Hp infection.link_to_subscribed_fulltextDigestive Disease Week and the 95th Annual Meeting of the American Gastroenterological Association, San Diego, CA, 14–17 May 1995. In Gastroenterology, 1995, v. 108 n. 4 S1, p. A26
