The Impacts Of Hype And Competition On The Valuations Of Privately-Held U.S. Software Startups, Karan Sudhir Goel Jan 2024

The Impacts Of Hype And Competition On The Valuations Of Privately-Held U.S. Software Startups, Karan Sudhir Goel

CMC Senior Theses

The impacts of internal conditions on startup valuations have been well studied, but external factors such as market hype and competition have been more restricted to public company valuation research. With soaring valuations in the Generative AI market, an analysis of the relation of hype and competition to startup valuations is timely. I test three hypotheses: (1) More hype about certain business or tech-focused topics is associated with higher valuations for startups operating in those areas (2) More competition is associated with lower valuations for startups (3) The positive effect of hype on valuations is offset by the negative effect …


Propuesta De Software De Valoración Cualitativa Y Cuantitativa De Proyectos De Investigación Con Potencial Innovador Para La Universidad De La Salle, Fabián Enrique Sierra Chirino, José De Jesús Murillo Prieto Jan 2018

Propuesta De Software De Valoración Cualitativa Y Cuantitativa De Proyectos De Investigación Con Potencial Innovador Para La Universidad De La Salle, Fabián Enrique Sierra Chirino, José De Jesús Murillo Prieto

Maestría en Administración

En el presente estudio se entrega una propuesta de software para la valoración cualitativa y cuantitativa de proyectos de investigación con potencial innovador para la Universidad de la Salle, la anterior idea surge de la necesidad planteada en la VRIT (Vicerrectoría de Investigación y Transferencia de la Universidad de la Salle), la cual no cuenta con una herramienta que le permita dar un valor real y cuantificable a las innovaciones propuestas desde los proyectos de investigación con potencial innovador que se llevan a cabo. Es por ello que surgió la necesidad de desarrollar un software para la Universidad que le …

Design Thinking: A Case Study Of Implementation Within The It Software Industry., Jean-Baptiste Liberge

Theses

In the global economy, competition and market pressures push the majority of company managers to drive with more efficiency by improving processes, optimizing performance and reducing costs. Companies are increasing shareholder value by improving cash flow' and cutting costs. How many cost savings can finance departments reproduce and for how long? Is this enough to lead their markets to deliver better services to their customers? Is it enough to build customer loyalty? The 11 industry fails to escape these constraints, operating in an intensely competitive market. To compete in this environment, companies need to face frequent new product launches and …


Discovering Software Reliability Patterns Based On Multiple Software Projects, Yi Liu, Gerald Adkins, Jeng-Foung Yao, Gita Williams Jan 2007

Discovering Software Reliability Patterns Based On Multiple Software Projects, Yi Liu, Gerald Adkins, Jeng-Foung Yao, Gita Williams

Journal of International Technology and Information Management

Discovering patterns that indicate software reliability provides valuable information to software project managers. Software Quality Classification (SQC) modeling is a methodology that can be used to discover reliability patterns of large software projects. However, the patterns found by SQC modeling may not be accurate and robust owing to insufficient information used in the training process. This study compares two genetic programming-based SQC models using different volumes of data. These data were extracted from seven different NASA software projects. The results demonstrate that combining data from different projects can produce more accurate and reliable patterns.


Review Of The Opnet It Guru Software, Jeng-Chung Victor Chen Jan 2004

Review Of The Opnet It Guru Software, Jeng-Chung Victor Chen

Journal of International Technology and Information Management

The OPNET IT GURU has been in existence for years and designed to be used for the industry and the academics. The simulation software is now in version 10.0 and equipped with abundant features such as: modeling network topology and traffic, application impact assessment, and server capacity planning. The features of modeling network topology and traffic are ideal for network engineers to experiment different kinds of scenarios before implementation of any networks, which in turn could cost the organizations less on the IT budget. The application impact assessment is useful when measuring the end-to-end time of the deployed or to-be-deployed …
