Leading Firms As Knowledge Gatekeepers In A Networked Environment, Deogratias Harorimana Mr
Leading Firms As Knowledge Gatekeepers In A Networked Environment, Deogratias Harorimana Mr
Dr Deogratias Harorimana
This chapter introduces the role of the knowledge gatekeeper as a mechanism by which knowledge is created and transferred in a networked environment. Knowledge creation and transfer are essential for building a knowledge based economy. The chapter considers obstacles that inhibit this process and argues that leading firms create a shared socio-cultural context that enables the condivision of tacit meanings and codification of knowledge. Leading firms act as gatekeepers of knowledge through the creation of shared virtual platforms. There will be a leading firm that connects several networks of clients and suppliers may not interact directly with one another, but …
Eine Serviceorientierte Architektur (Soa) Für Die Integration Von Rfid-, Sensor- Und Lokalisierungsdaten Im Facility Management, Daniel Hanhart, Christine Legner, Hubert Oesterle
Eine Serviceorientierte Architektur (Soa) Für Die Integration Von Rfid-, Sensor- Und Lokalisierungsdaten Im Facility Management, Daniel Hanhart, Christine Legner, Hubert Oesterle
Hubert Oesterle
RFID-, Sensor- und Lokalisierungstechnologien werden die Abläufe im Facility Management künftig stark verändern. Angesichts der hohen Kosten des Vorort-Einsatzes eines Mitarbeiters und der verteilten Standorte von Immobilien bieten diese Technologien Immobilienbetreibern die Chance, ihre Kostenstrukturen durch hoch integrierte Abläufe zu optimieren und sich im Wettbewerb durch Zusatzleistungen zu differenzieren. Die Integration mobiler und ubiquitärer Technologien in bestehende Systemlandschaften erfordert jedoch die Implementierung zusätzlicher Infrastrukturkomponenten und Schnittstellen. In der Vergangenheit war dies mit dem Einsatz verschiedener, proprietärer Technologien verbunden und führte zu komplexen, schwer beherrschbaren Integrationslösungen. Ausgehend von Anwendungsszenarien in der Instandhaltung von Immobilien zeigt der vorliegende Beitrag, welchen Beitrag Serviceorientierte …
Emergence Of Nanodistricts In The United States: Path Dependency Or New Opportunities?, Philip Shapira, Jan Youtie
Emergence Of Nanodistricts In The United States: Path Dependency Or New Opportunities?, Philip Shapira, Jan Youtie
Philip Shapira
Multiple economic development theories suggest that research and innovation in emerging technologies will cluster in certain locations rather then distributing equally among all regions. If this is the case, this distributional pattern has implications for where future economic opportunities as well as future risks will be concentrated. In this paper, we probe nanotechnology (hereafter nano) research and commercialization at a regional level. The study examines the top 30 US “nanodistricts” or metropolitan areas which lead in nanotechnology research activity over the 1990-2006 timeframe. We explore the factors underlying the emergence of these 30 metropolitan areas through exploratory cluster analysis. We …

The Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a longstanding record of helping small- and medium-sized (SME) manufacturers to identify and implement technologies and practices that improve manufacturing efficiency and product quality. More recently, MEP has begun to build a growth services portfolio to assist manufacturers with the development of new products, new customers, and new markets. Its first growth services offering, called Eureka! Winning Ways (E!WW), was piloted in late 2006 and has been implemented widely since the beginning of 2008. To explore the nature of early E!WW client experiences, as well …
Coercing Consensus: Unintended Success Of The Octopus Electronic Payment System, Leung-Sea, Lucia Siu
Coercing Consensus: Unintended Success Of The Octopus Electronic Payment System, Leung-Sea, Lucia Siu
Prof. SIU Leung-sea, Lucia
This paper contrasts the success and failure of two electronic payment systems in Hong Kong, Octopus and Mondex, during 1996-2002. The case illustrates the new properties of electronic currencies, and provides insights for product designers and regulators. Mondex was endowed with the full legal status of money, launched by a mammoth banking group, with Mondex cards given away for free to consumers. Yet the Mondex system went into oblivion within five years. Octopus started as a modest stored value transport ticket that required a deposit. It ended up as a city-wide multipurpose payment card used by 95% of the adult …

Refining Search Terms For Nanotechnology, Alan L. Porter, Jan Youtie, Philip Shapira, David J. Schoeneck
Philip Shapira
The ability to delineate the boundaries of an emerging technology is central to obtaining an understanding of the technology’s research paths and commercialization prospects. Nowhere is this more relevant than in the case of nanotechnology (hereafter identified as “nano”) given its current rapid growth and multidisciplinary nature. (Under the rubric of nanotechnology, we also include nanoscience and nanoengineering.) Past efforts have utilized several strategies, including simple term search for the prefix nano, complex lexical and citation-based approaches, and bootstrapping techniques. This research introduces a modularized Boolean approach to defining nanotechnology which has been applied to several research and patenting databases. …

A Generic Design Environment For The Rural Industry Knowledge Acquisition (With Don Kerr And John Gammack), Shah Jahan Miah
A Generic Design Environment For The Rural Industry Knowledge Acquisition (With Don Kerr And John Gammack), Shah Jahan Miah
Dr Shah Jahan Miah
This paper describes a new knowledge acquisition method using a generic design environment where context-sensitive knowledge is used to build specific DSS for rural business. Although standard knowledge acquisition methods have been applied in rural business applications, uptake remains low and familiar weaknesses such as obsolescence and brittleness apply. We describe a decision support system (DSS) building environment where contextual factors relevant to the end users are directly taken into consideration. This ‘‘end user enabled design environment” (EUEDE) engages both domain experts in creating an expert knowledge base and business operators/end users (such as farmers) in using this knowledge for …
Do R&D Programs Of Different Government Levels Overlap In The European Union?, Andrea Fernandez-Ribas, Isabel Busom
Do R&D Programs Of Different Government Levels Overlap In The European Union?, Andrea Fernandez-Ribas, Isabel Busom
Andrea Fernandez-Ribas
Multiple levels of government currently design and implement research and innovation programs both in the US and in Europe. Empirical analysis of interdependencies among programs has not been fully explored, however. Our contribution is a first step in understanding potential complementarities across R&D programs. Using a sample of Spanish manufacturing firms, we study the determinants of firms’ participation in national and in European level research programs and test for differences across programs. Our results suggest that firms’ participation in European and national R&D programs is largely driven by different factors. We interpret these results as suggesting that, ex-post, there is …

Global Data Synchronization – Lösungsansatz Für Das Überbetriebliche Produktstammdatenmanagement Zwischen Konsumgüterindustrie Und Handel?, Jan Schemm, Christine Legner, Hubert Oesterle
Global Data Synchronization – Lösungsansatz Für Das Überbetriebliche Produktstammdatenmanagement Zwischen Konsumgüterindustrie Und Handel?, Jan Schemm, Christine Legner, Hubert Oesterle
Hubert Oesterle
Abgestimmte Produktstammdaten bilden die Grundlage elektronischer Geschäftsbeziehungen zwischen Handels- und Industrieunternehmen. Obwohl Handel und Industrie sich schon vergleichsweise lange mit dem elektronischen Austausch von Produktdaten beschäftigen, konnten sich weder der EDI-basierte, bilaterale Stammdatenaustausch noch der multilaterale Ansatz über Datenpools durchsetzen. Seit Mitte 2004 verfolgt das Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN) einen neuen Lösungsansatz, mit dem Ziel, einen m:n-fähigen elektronischen Produktstammdatenaustausch zu etablieren. Die Ankündigungen von führenden Handelsunternehmen wie WALMART, AHOLD oder TESCO sowie Konsumgüterherstellern wie NESTLÉ, PROCTER GAMBLE oder KRAFT FOODS schüren ebenso wiedie aktuelle Konsolidierung unter den Stammdatenpools die Erwartungen. Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht die Fragestellung,inwieweit GDSN die notwendigen …
On Building Clusters Versus Leveraging Synergies In The Design Of Innovation Policy For Developing Economies, Edward J. Feser
On Building Clusters Versus Leveraging Synergies In The Design Of Innovation Policy For Developing Economies, Edward J. Feser
Edward J Feser
This paper argues there are two broad ways policymakers might use industry cluster concepts to inform the design of regional innovation policy. The first, and clearly dominant approach, is to view identified technology-based clusters as targets for growth strategies, i.e., to nurture the growth of selected groups of innovative industries and research strengths in a limited set of regions as a means of increasing levels of innovation economy-wide (termed the cluster building approach). The second is to use cluster ideas to reorient development strategies so that they leverage synergies among businesses and non-market institutions, thus improving innovation rates (termed the …

Software Engineers Or Artists? Programmers’ Identity Choices, Dariusz Jemielniak
Software Engineers Or Artists? Programmers’ Identity Choices, Dariusz Jemielniak
Dariusz Jemielniak
This paper explores how assigning software developers the identity of “engineers” metes out specific assumptions about IT projects. To this end, the paper describes an alternative metaphor of programming as art, which is commonly used by the programmers interviewed. In addition, the discussion draws conclusions from the discrepancies between the two views as well as from the proposed metaphor, explaining organizational reluctance to aesthetical vocabulary. This paper discusses occupational identity—emphasizing the identity of programmers—using qualitative research methods. As such, it enriches the literature currently available on this profession.
Sources Of Uncertainty In Project Management: A “Real Life” Account, Dominika Latusek, Dariusz Jemielniak
Sources Of Uncertainty In Project Management: A “Real Life” Account, Dominika Latusek, Dariusz Jemielniak
Dariusz Jemielniak
Although the studies of IT project management abound, they rarely present in one study the perspective of both the customers and the providers. The very relation between customers and provides has been rather rarely explored (Latusek and Jemielniak, 2007). It may be partially due to the fact that usually neither clients, nor providers, are willing to let outsiders into the details of the project. Through this paper we want to take advantage of our unique research setting in which we were allowed to interview representatives of both parties. Through presenting their stories we wish to cast light on the actual …
Sources Of Wood & Wood Residues For Energy Production In Indiana, Isaac Slaven, Eva Haviarova, Klein Ileleji
Sources Of Wood & Wood Residues For Energy Production In Indiana, Isaac Slaven, Eva Haviarova, Klein Ileleji
Isaac Slaven
As energy prices rise and there is a push for energy to be produced from renewable resources, the contribution of Indiana’s corn and soybean industry often overshadows the impact that the State’s wood residues can have in response to these demands. Reports show that the wood products industry is the largest, by paid wages, of any agricultural industry in Indiana and employs 47,000 Indianans.1 In fact, Indiana has more than 4.5 million acres of forest land,2 compared to about 12.3 million acres of cropland.3 In addition to the millions of acres of forestland, Indiana has more than 1,600 wood products …
