Exploring Emerging Business Model Value Chains in New Space
No full textOver the past twenty years, business activities related to opportunities provided by New Space have undergone constant change. These changes challenge existing business models and value chains. In this work, we discuss these changes based on the literature, expert interviews, and case examples from the industry. We demonstrate eight different value chains in New Space business. These include conventional value chains as well novel ones, all in the context of space business. The value chains investigated are at different levels of abstraction and include data, hardware, intellectual property, prestige, mission planning, tourism, and space services. The eighth value chain is an aggregated overview of the whole of New Space business. Furthermore, we discuss business opportunities within these value chains and provide insights into totally new business model value chains that are emerging in New Space. Lastly, we consider feedback loops in the value chains of New Space that should be understood by academic researchers and business managers.© The Author(s) 2024.

New Space Era : Characteristics of the New Space Industry Landscape
No full textIn recent decades, the space industry has undergone enormous changes, transitioning from government-led space projects (referred to as “old space”) toward a more entrepreneurial and commercial utilization of space by private firms (termed “new space”). Due to these rapid changes, there is a pressing need for up-to-date insights into the field, encompassing its theories and characteristics, particularly concerning business activities related to space. In this chapter, we present five propositions for further study and more detailed investigation. These propositions are based on current literature and qualitative data gathered from 10 experts working in key roles within the space industry. Finally, the chapter identifies key theoretical elements that help elucidate how the space business is evolving and its likely trajectory in the near future.©The Author(s) 2024.

Cause of low COVID 19 detection and mortality rate in Pakistan and India
No full textThe COVID 19 has become a concern for all the countries of the world. More than 276,000 and 4 million people have been killed and infected, respectively. The author wants to emphasize the reasons of low COVID 19 detection and mortality rate in both Pakistan and India

The British judges of the International Court of Justice ::an explication? the later jurists /
No full text"The monograph considers the individual and joint dissertations, separate opinions and dissenting opinions that British judges Sir Gerald Fitzmaurice, Sir Humphrey Waldock, Sir Robert Jennings, Dame Rosalyn Higgins and Sir Christopher Greenwood appended to Judgments and Advisory Opinions of the International Court of Justice. It provides information of the life of, and reviews some of the scholarship of, these judges. In the final chapter, the author endeavours to identify characteristics of the British judges of the International Court of Justice that are shared by some of all of these five jurists - together with their predecessors at the Court, Baron Arnold McNair and Sir Hersch Lauterpacht"-
Is utility in the mind of the beholder? A review of ergonomics methods
No full textThis paper reviews the use of ergonomics methods in the context of usability of consumer products. A review of the literature indicated that there is upward of 60 methods available to the ergonomist. The results of the survey indicated that questionnaires, interviews and observation are the most frequently reported methods used. Ease of use of the methods was dependent upon type of method used, presence of software support and type of training received. Strong links were found between questionnaires and interviews as a combined approach, as well as with HTA and observation. However, a questionnaire survey of professional ergonomists found that none of the respondents had any documented evidence of the reliability and validity of the methods they were using. A study of training people to use ergonomics' methods indicated the different requirements of the approaches, in terms of training time, application time and subjective preferences. An important goal for future research is to establish the reliability and validity of ergonomics methods

International law changes in light of the invasion of Ukraine /
No full text"The thoughts that led to the writing of International Law Changes in the Light of the Invasion of Ukraine were crystallized in 2014, when Russia occupied Crimea and little was done in response. The UNSC was unable to act because Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN would veto - and did veto - any proposals for resolutions of the UNSC on this matter. Of course, the USSR had a history of invading its neighbours - most recently Afghanistan in 1979. When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, it was clear that a further publication had to be presented. Given the gravity of the situation concerning the stasis of the UN Charter, the author hopes that the need for modifications to it is taken as seriously as the current circumstances merit. This book may provide impetus to begin the process of appropriate change"-- Provided by publisher
High Isolation Low Profile MIMO Antenna for 5G Applications
No full textThis article focuses on the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) antenna with smaller dimensions and improved isolation between the ports which results in good performance and is suitable for modern wireless communication systems, especially USB dongle and 5G mobile applications. Two main problems with the conventional antennas are (i) Large height between the top to ground plate and (ii) Smaller isolation between the ports. These two problems are carefully addressed in the proposed design. The height in the proposed antenna is minimized up to 4mm between the top and to ground plate. Further achieved isolation is more than -18dB by introducing a novel type of periodic slots in the ground plate of the antenna. The antenna structure consists of a ground plate and two top plates, each with defined dimensions. The parameters are optimized using software for the best performance of the antenna to ensure efficient signal transmission and reception. The proposed antenna aims to explore the impact of dimension parameters like impedance matching and fractional bandwidth and isolation between the ports. The antenna resonates for 4.5GHz to 5.75GHz frequency bandwidth. The return loss for impedance bandwidth is below -20dB. The antenna is simulated on software and fabricated on substrate FR4. The simulated and measured results are compared which indicates that this antenna with high isolation and good impedance bandwidth is a more suitable candidate for 5G mobile applications. Compared to the conventional same-class antenna, the proposed antenna has good performance with minimized dimensions
