Tax Incentives for Industry Synergy in Nigeria: A Pragmatic Proprietary System Advocacy
"... Tax incentives are quintessential fiscal provisions designed by core industry-driven governmental authorities to attract and empower investors in strategic sectors of the economy. In Nigeria, several booster reliefs are obtainable, but many industrialists show soft spot for investment tax credit (IT ..."

Exchange (NSE); the correlation, regression and Z-test analytical results were vividly in the affirmative. Leveraging on the outcomes, therefore, a Tax Incentive – Corporate Profitability Impact Model (TICPIM) is conceptualized and presented herein, to accord meaningful impetus to a pragmatic proprietary
The eucalyptus open-source cloud-computing system
- In Proceedings of Cloud Computing and Its Applications [Online
"... Cloud computing systems fundamentally provide access to large pools of data and computational resources through a variety of interfaces similar in spirit to existing grid and HPC resource management and programming systems. These types of systems offer a new programming target for scalable applicati ..."

application developers and have gained popularity over the past few years. However, most cloud computing systems in operation today are proprietary, rely upon infrastructure that is invisible to the research community, or are not explicitly designed to be instrumented and modified by systems researchers
OPEN VS. PROPRIETARY SYSTEMS IN B2B E-PROCUREMENT: A RISK-ADJUSTED TRANSACTION COST PERSPECTIVE
"... This article presents an economic model of a monopoly retailer that enables the study of incentives for business-to-business (B2B) e-procurement technology investments that permit inventory coordination and improved operational control. We focus on the information technology (IT) adoption behavior o ..."

of firms in the presence of agency costs and information uncertainty. We distinguish among three kinds of B2B e-procurement technology platforms that can be selected: traditional interorganizational systems (IOSs), open B2B platforms associated with electronic markets on the Internet, and hybrid solutions
WISE TECHNOLOGY LESSONS: MOVING FROM A LOCAL PROPRIETARY SYSTEM TO A GLOBAL OPEN SOURCE FRAMEWORK

WISE is a software platform that enables easy authoring and exchange of educational materials amongst learning science researchers. This paper charts the recent evolution of the WISE technology, sharing lessons learned and describing a new open source framework called SAIL. We identify key challenges and design principles for technology-enhanced learning environments, and describe how we applied these principles to help WISE move from a single-developer codebase to an international open source codebase shared among multiple technology projects. Finally, we discuss the new types of community this transition fosters.

Proprietary SOA Systems
"... Abstract—According to a survey conducted by Forrester Re-search in 2008, at least 44 % of North American, European, and Asian-Pacific enterprises have adopted SOA (Service-oriented Architecture), and at least 63 % would adopt it by the end of 2008 [1]. A more recent survey by Forrester also shows th ..."

from architectural point of view. More specifically, we evaluate the extent to which proprietary SOA systems conform to the principles of service orientation. To this aim, a framework of Degree of Service Orientation (DoSO) has been developed. This framework is applied to nine proprietary SOA systems
Storing semistructured data with STORED
"... Systems for managing and querying semistructured-data sources often store data in proprietary object repositories or in a tagged-text format. We describe a technique that can use relational database management systems to store and manage semistructured data. Our technique relies on a mapping between ..."
