&lt;br/&gt;Abstract: The substantial increase in female employment rates in Europe over the past two decades has often been linked in political and public rhetoric to negative effects on child development, including obesity. We analyse this association between maternal employment and childhood obesity using rich objective reports of various anthropometric and other measures of fatness from the IDEFICS study of children aged 2-9 in 16 regions of eight European countries. Based on such data as accelerometer measures and information from nutritional diaries, we also investigate the effects of maternal employment on obesity's main drivers: calorie intake and physical activity. Our analysis provides little evidence for any association between maternal employment and childhood obesity, diet or physical activity.</description>

    <description>Title: Inter-firm R&amp;D networks in pharmaceutical biotechnology: What determines firm's centrality-based partnering capability
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Authors: Krogmann, Yin; Riedel, Nadine; Schwalbe, Ulrich
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Abstract: This paper analyses the inter-firm R&amp;D network formed in the pharmaceutical biotechnology industry during the 1990s from different perspectives: theoretical network formation, firm's structural positions and its collaborations at the entire network level, and the determinants for firm's centrality-based partnering capability. The results indicate that pharmaceutical biotechnology industry has experienced a significant evolutional change in size and structure during 1991-1998. By considering individual structural positions, the descriptive statistics show that in the 1990s, established pharmaceutical companies developed into dominant star players with multiple partnerships while holding central roles in the R&amp;D network. In the network analysis that emphasized aggregate network level, the degree-based and betweenness-based network centralization were not high implying that the distribution of overall positional advantages in the pharmaceutical biotechnology industry is, to a large degree, not unequal and even though most firms in this sector are linked to the R&amp;D network, some of them are more active than others. The current analysis also shows that firm's efficiency, firm's dependency on its complementary resources and firm's experiences at managing partnerships are important determinants for firm's centrality-based partnering capability, which has important managerial implications for understanding firm's strategic partnering behaviour.</description>

    <description>Title: Risiken aus Cloud-Computing-Services: Fragen des Risikomanagements und Aspekte der Versicherbarkeit
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Authors: Haas, Andreas; Hofmann, Annette
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Abstract: Unternehmen stehen heute aufgrund ökonomischer Anreize verstärkt vor der Entscheidung, die bisher intern gelagerte Datenverarbeitung und Geschäftsprozesse auf einen externen Anbieter von Cloud-Computing-Dienstleistungen auszulagern. Diese neuartige Form des IT-Outsourcing verändert jedoch die Risikosituation, der Anbieter und Nachfrager ausgesetzt sind, teilweise erheblich. Heutige Cyber-Versicherungsprodukte sind noch nicht auf versicherungstechnische und vertragsrechtliche Besonderheiten des Cloud Computing ausgelegt. Zudem führen die stark interdependenten Netzwerkstrukturen von Cloud-Anbietern, verbunden mit einer fehlenden Unabhängigkeit der Einzelrisiken in einer Cloud-Infrastruktur zu starken Kumulproblemen im Schadenfall und eröffnen Fragen der grundsätzlichen Versicherbarkeit. Die Analyse zeigt, dass neben einer Anpassung heutiger Versicherungsprodukte auf den Kontext Cloud-Computing auch innovative Risikodiversifikationsmöglichkeiten geschaffen werden sollten, um Risiken aus Cloud-Computing-Services auf ein Versicherungsunternehmen zu transferieren. Dieser Artikel erörtert die Risikosituation bei der Nutzung von Cloud-Services, bietet eine Klassifikation der Risiken an und diskutiert zentrale Fragen der Versicherbarkeit sowie Lösungsansätze für das Risikomanagement.</description>
