Evolution Petroleum is a petroleum company engaged primarily in the acquisition, exploitation and development of properties for the production of crude oil and natural gas....
In medical science, we can find ways to improve wound treatment methods based on trends of evolution and Theory of Inventive Problem Solving TRIZ principles. We can look forward to the use of lasers used to suture in addition to cutting, rather than using a biodegradable or other type of...
The paper in which software is developed determines its evolution. Specifically for software developed as a product by startups, the uncertainty of market, platform and team not only determine the evolution of the product, but also of the process. During the lifecycle of the product the organization changes and different...

The cash management space continues to evolve. This evolution is being driven by not only more demanding business customers, but also by pressure placed on banks to identify new revenue streams to overcome the flat and falling revenues experienced in the last few years. This article examines some of the...
This paper develops a model of international trade and industrial evolution. Evolution is driven by the endogenous technology choices of firms which generates a rich industrial environment that includes the potential for a dramatic shakeout of firms. The likelihood, magnitude and timing of this shakeout is characterized and depends not...
In a business climate that punishes the inefficient and the slow-moving, enterprises must manage their information assets more effectively, efficiently and wisely than ever. This white paper begins with six reasons why companies need to reassess their information-management strategies. It then provides a brief overview of the five levels of...
This paper analyzes the evolution of the early and influential VC firm, American Research & Development Corporation ARD, in the period that it was independent from 1946-1973. The paper places the creation and subsequent evolution of ARD within its historical context and shows how it was an innovation by Boston-area...
Computer modelling and simulation are commonly used to analyze engineered systems. Biological systems differ in that they often cannot be accurately characterized, so simulations are far from exact. Nonetheless, we argue in this paper that evolution results in recurring, dynamic organizational principles in biological systems, and that simulation can help...
This paper presents the evolution of the refining and petrochemical industries during the last two or three decades and the principal trends of their evolution in the medium and long run. Then, it describes some important deals that both industries have and will have to cope with. The second part...
From the executive summary: ‘For the first time in history, humans have got the opportunity to participate in an evolution. Never before has a species possessed the ability to choose whether it continues its evolution toward a higher form or becomes extinct. The western and industrialized world has come to...
From the executive summary: ‘In business, change is either the result of a smooth evolution or a rocky revolution. Change has many facets that manifest in the way people look at it. It can mean different things to different people at different times.’ The paper examines different aspects of change...

Proponents say successful businesses must have one. Today call centers can be integrally involved in planning shipments from the earliest...
This paper focuses on rotary steering technique which has seen a dramatic resurgence driven by the need to design and plan more complicated directional wells. The evolution of directional drilling trajectory control techniques from conventional rotary assemblies through steerable motors to full 3D rotary steering control systems, in addition to...
The evolution of sidetracking dates back to the early 1900Æs, where the equipment to perform this work was crude and used simply as an alternative to going around a fish in the well-bore or to correct the direction of a hole. Advances in metallurgy and cutting structures for sidetracking progressed...
This study performs a theoretical analysis of instability in a departure time choice problem. Stability of equilibrium is an important factor for reliability of travel time. If equilibrium is not stable, travel time changes over a period of days even if demand and network performance are stable....
