Innovation Stack - Choosing Innovations For Commercialization, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu Aug 2007

Innovation Stack - Choosing Innovations For Commercialization, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper describes a method for enterprises to order the innovations of interest according to a number of parameters including their own business strategy and core competencies. The method takes into account aspects such as ability to create entry barriers and complementary assets. Enterprises can now use this method to both filter out innovations that may not be of interest to them and then order the short listed or selected innovations according to their attractiveness.


Re-Engineering Xid Technologies - From Enterprise To Consumer Markets, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu Aug 2007

Re-Engineering Xid Technologies - From Enterprise To Consumer Markets, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Several studies have addressed the process of taking ideas to markets but few have shared the experiences of start up companies that have reexamined their product strategies and repositioned their products and services for better revenues and profits. This paper reports the efforts related to repositioning of XID technologies, a start up company, into new markets while continuing to exploit its core technical competencies.


Designing The Value Curve For Your Next Innovation, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu Aug 2007

Designing The Value Curve For Your Next Innovation, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper introduces an additional feature to the strategy canvas and value curve that will make innovation designers more effective. The new feature is to let the innovators carry out the designs of their new innovations taking into account both the cost of improving the quality of a parameter that the users value highly and the savings accrued from the drop in provisioning for parameters that users place less emphasis in an innovation.


Making The ‘Most’ Out Of Rfid Technology: A Research Agenda For The Study Of The Adoption, Use And Impact Of Rfid, John Curtin, Robert J. Kauffman, Frederick J. Riggins Jun 2007

Making The ‘Most’ Out Of Rfid Technology: A Research Agenda For The Study Of The Adoption, Use And Impact Of Rfid, John Curtin, Robert J. Kauffman, Frederick J. Riggins

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology dramatically increases the ability of the organization to acquire a vast array of data about the location and properties of any entity that can be physically tagged and wirelessly scanned within certain technical limitations. RFID can be applied to a variety of tasks, structures, work systems and contexts along the value chain, including business-to-business logistics, internal operations, business-to-consumer marketing, and after-sales service applications. As industry adoption of RFID increases there is an emerging interest by academic researchers to engage in scholarly investigation to understand how RFID relates to mobility, organizational and systems technologies (MOST). In …


Innovation Engine, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu Jun 2007

Innovation Engine, Arcot Desai Narasimhalu

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This paper describes a meta-model for innovation using an automobile engine as a metaphor. This innovation meta-model is used to manage a collection of innovation models. We develop an algorithm to identify innovations with potential for success using this meta-model. This meta-model can be used by corporations and individuals to identify plausible innovations at any given point in time.
