  abstract     = {{Background – This study draws on data from a larger international project exploring parents' perceptions of the education of their children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Using responses from 1, 309 parents in Australia, England, Germany, and Norway it examines parental satisfaction with mainstream and special schools, and parents' school placement preferences, including willingness to change schools. Parental satisfaction is assessed as an overall evaluation of how well the child's school placement meets their needs, without distinguishing between specific aspects of the school experience. The study also explores whether the child's level of support is associated with these perceptions. Based on a human rights perspective, we highlight parents’ perspectives and their role in the development of more inclusive education systems, without promoting one model of schooling over another. Methods – Responses from 1, 309 parents across four countries were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Non-parametric tests compared satisfaction across school types, chi-squared tests assessed associations with willingness to change schools, and binary logistic regression examined whether level of support was associated with parents' willingness to change school placement. Results – Parents in England, Germany, and Norway reported higher satisfaction with special schools than with mainstream schools. No statistically significant difference was observed in Australia. Parents of children in special schools were less likely to report considering changing schools, particularly in England and Norway. Higher pupil support needs were significantly associated with parents’ willingness to change school across the combined sample. These findings suggest that parental satisfaction with their child's education and their preferences regarding school placement may be shaped by both school type and how well pupils' support needs are perceived to be met. Discussion and conclusion – The role of parents as key stakeholders in developing inclusive education systems, consistent with the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) is emphasised. While parents in special schools in three of the four countries reported higher satisfaction, the reasons for this remain unclear. Understanding the factors shaping parental satisfaction is essential for developing inclusive and responsive learning environments. These findings offer a starting point for future research on how education systems can better align policy commitments with families’ lived experiences.}},

  abstract     = {{<jats:p>We return to the theoretical foundations of absorptive capacity and test the idea that personal experience in a field makes it easier for a firm’s inventors to recognize and build upon knowledge in that field from other local firms. We propose a new empirical model of localized knowledge diffusion, which (1) measures a firm’s absorptive capacity by its inventors’ prior experience in a field, (2) uses a death instrument to exogenously vary the availability of knowledge of the same collaborative patent in different regions, and (3) estimates the difference in citation likelihood from all subsequent inventors across both regions as a function of a potentially citing inventor’s prior experience in the field. Consistent with the original theory of absorptive capacity, firms whose inventors have prior experience in a field are more likely to use locally available interpersonal knowledge from other firms; furthermore, this effect declines monotonically with distance. Although the effects strengthen for more recent experience and multidisciplinary knowledge, the greatest benefits accrue to firms in the interaction—those whose inventors have more recent experience and that seek to absorb multidisciplinary knowledge. Interpersonal absorptive capacity within firms does not appear to localize.</jats:p>

  abstract     = {{This article critically examines three persistent pitfalls that undermine the transformative potential of intercultural education: cultural uniformity, pedagogical neutrality, and presumptions of competence. These interconnected tendencies are rooted in essentialist conceptions of culture, the depoliticisation of educational practice, and the instrumental reduction of intercultural competence to a measurable skill. Drawing on critical pedagogy and decolonial scholarship, as well as empirical studies on monolingualism, assimilationism, and institutionalised hierarchies, the article demonstrates how well-intentioned initiatives often reproduce structural power asymmetries, symbolic violence, and epistemic marginalisation. It thus advocates an intercultural education grounded in critical reflexivity, political responsibility, and a sustained commitment to epistemic and social justice. Moving beyond reductive frameworks, the article advances dialogic, participatory, and decolonising approaches that interrogate dominant norms, recognise the pluriform and situated character of knowledge, and foreground the relational dynamics of interculturality. Intercultural learning is thus reframed as an ongoing, power-conscious process of negotiating difference within structurally unequal conditions rather than as the transmission of predefined competencies.}},

  abstract     = {{Models of Circular Economy introduce circularity strategies like reuse, repair or remanufacture. A significant level of complexity is added when these strategies are applied not only on integrated product level, but on lower levels of assemblies and parts. Therefore, approaches, like Design for Assembly, Disassembly and Reassembly (DfADR) become increasingly important including the consideration of ADR capabilities. To put DfADR into practice, it is necessary to structure ADR-related product data and make it usable for product engineers. For instance, assemblies resulting from disassembly might not be consistent with original assembly structures. Therefore, a Product Meta Data Model (MDM) is required to handle assembly-related data even when it has extreme characteristics. A literature review on related MDMs reveals a range of models for general product data and identifies a gap in consideration of assembly-related data. In an expert workshop, requirements are raised to evaluate existing models and develop ADR-related extensions. The MDM is conceptually modelled and validated by competence questions. The paper presents an approach that makes assembly-related data usable for hybrid decision support and enables engineers to think ahead of ADR processes.}},

AI-based requirements extraction using Large Language Models (LLMs) has the potential to support engineers in this task by analyzing large documents, for example. Existing evaluation approaches in AI-supported requirements engineering mainly assess individual requirements and their consistency with source documents, while quality criteria of requirements sets are largely neglected. This paper presents a five-step approach to evaluate the performance of current LLMs in generating requirements sets: a systematic literature review to identify quality criteria of requirements sets (1), exemplary generation of requirements sets from the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC using LLMs (2), examination (3), evaluation (4) and comparison (5) of the generated requirements sets. The results support engineers in selecting LLMs for creating requirement sets and in evaluating future LLMs.}},

  abstract     = {{The sliding square model is a widely used abstraction for studying self-reconfigurable robotic systems, where modules are square-shaped robots that move by sliding or rotating over one another. In this paper, we propose a novel distributed algorithm that enables a group of modules to reconfigure into a rhombus shape, starting from an arbitrary side-connected configuration. It is connectivity-preserving and operates under minimal assumptions: one leader module, common chirality, constant memory per module, and visibility and communication restricted to immediate neighbors. Unlike prior work, which relaxes the original sliding square move-set, our approach uses the unmodified move-set, addressing the additional challenge of handling locked configurations. Our algorithm is sequential in nature and operates with a worst-case time complexity of O(n^2) rounds, which is optimal for sequential algorithms. To improve runtime, we introduce two parallel variants of the algorithm. Both rely on a spanning tree data structure, allowing modules to make decisions based on local connectivity. Our experimental results show a significant speedup for the first variant, and a linear average runtime for the second variant, which is worst-case optimal for parallel algorithms.}},

We use a sample of 7420 small private firms operating in the period 2006-2022 that are not subject to mandatory audits. Firms self-select into voluntary audits because of the economic setting (e.g., ownership complexity, export, subsidiary status) or because firm fundamentals limit their access to financial debt. In the outcome analyses, we find that voluntary audits result in higher, rather than lower, interest rates with increases ranging from approximately 1.7 percentage points, but going higher depending on the exact specification. This effect is present regardless of the perceived audit quality (Big-4 vs. non-Big-4), consistent across auditor types. Audited firms’ earnings are less informative about future operating performance. Voluntary audits facilitate access to financial debt for high-risk firms. The price paid is reflected in higher interest rates for voluntary audits – firms with higher information/fundamental risk.}},
