The main objective of the study was to examine factors that influence employee performance in general and, more specifically, in public enterprises. The research approach was qualitative, with an in-depth literature review and content analysis. The findings of the study reflect that some factors have a positive and some have a negative influence on employee performance. The study also shows a significant relationship between factors and employee performance, which in turn has a multiplier effect on employee development. Recommendations include the need to provide resources for employee training and development, and the strategic aims and objectives of public enterprises should be aligned with the training and development programs.

Several studies have discussed the benefits of blockchain in human resources management (HRM) policies to support the efficiency of HRM routine practices in organizations. The discussion ranges from selection and recruitment to employee separation. With the growing interest in digital application usage, research focused on utilization and effective measurement is needed. However, the existing literature review on blockchain-based HRM practices linked to cost efficiency still needs to be improved. Hence, this study aims to review current studies on blockchain human resources management systematically. This study investigates the trends in blockchain application usage in terms of practices, methodologies, and settings. This study used a literature survey and Publish or Perish software with Google Scholar and Scopus as the databases. 123 articles published in 19 journals from 2010 to 2022 were selected. This study used systematic data to reveal trends in HRM practices and qualitative inductive analysis to define relevant themes within the topic. The results show that blockchain applications for efficiency are used mainly in the recruitment and selection process, ranging from personal data verification to the quality of decision-making in skill development and maintenance. Five HRM practices have been discussed, indicating potential explorative and exploitative future research to improve the effectiveness of using blockchain in HRM practices.

Due to the lack of clear regulation of management accounting at the state level in Russia, the authors conducted a study based on an analysis of information sources, an expert survey on their reliability, and a case method, which resulted in a reporting form compiled for the production process of an agro-industrial enterprise (grain products) as part of inter-organizational company cooperation. The developed management reporting system (composed of eight consecutive stages: standard reports, specialized reports, itemized query reports, notification reports, statistical reports, prognostic reports, modeling results reports, and process optimization reports), on one hand, allows solving a set of tasks to increase the competitiveness of Russian agro-industrial enterprises within the framework of inter-organizational management accounting. On the other hand, the introduction of ESG principles into the management reporting system (calculation of the environmental (E) index, which assesses the company’s impact on the natural ecosystem and covers emissions and efficient use of natural resources in the agricultural production process) increases the level of control and minimizes the risks of an unfair approach of individual partners to environmental issues.

The semiclassical boron–boron interatomic pair potential is constructed in an integral form allowing its converting into the analytical one. It is an ab initio B–B potential free of any semiempirical adjusting parameters, which would serve as an effective tool for the theoretical characterization of all-boron and boron-rich nanomaterials.

A theory of many-body wave scattering is developed under the assumption a << d << λ, where a is the characteristic size of the small body, d is the distance between neighboring bodies and λ is the wave-length in the medium in which the bodies are embedded. The multiple scattering is essential under these assumptions. The author’s theory is used for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient. This theory can be used in practice. A recipe for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient is formulated. Materials with a desired radiation pattern, for example, wave-focusing materials, can be created.

Under the background of green economic transformation, the sustainable utilization of ecological resources has become a trend, and bamboo all-for-one tourism has become a new development direction for bamboo-resource-rich areas. Based on the all-for-one tourism model and characteristics of bamboo resources, this paper puts forward a bamboo all-for-one tourism model, which shows the relationship between resources, products, and markets, and elaborates on the joint effect mechanism of industrial environment, governance environment, and external environment. Taking Yibin City, Sichuan Province as an example, this paper also analyzes existing problems of developing bamboo all-for-one tourism and then proposes suggestions to provide effective analytical ideas and reference, such as establishing a market-oriented all-product development model, introducing the sustainable development concept of bamboo management, establishing the management concept of sharing by all people, and driving all industries developing in a coordinated way.
