Advocacy and Lobbying

WiLDCOAST, an environmental nonprofit on the United States-Mexico border has a program that focuses on the flow of used tires into California from Mexico was a huge burden on local communities. This program was the basis for this advocacy campaign which focuses on a legislative "fix" to "break the tire cycle," and reduce the associated economic, public health, and environmental impacts that these tires cause.

This project became state law.

This is Old Dominion University's ninth annual State of the Region report. While it represents the work of many people connected in various ways to the university, the report does not constitute an official viewpoint of Old Dominion or it's president, John R. Broderick. The report maintains the goal of stimulating thought and discussion that ultimately will make Hampton Roads an even better place to live. We are proud of our region's many successes, but realize that it is possible to improve our performance. In order to do so, we must have accurate information about "where we are" and a …

The Sciences Of Design: Observations On An Emerging Field, Sandeep Purao, Carliss Y. Baldwin, Alan R. Hevner, Veda C. Storey, Jan Pries-Heje, Brian Smith, Ying Zhu

Computer Information Systems Faculty Publications

The boundaries and contours of design sciences continue to undergo definition and refinement. In many ways, the sciences of design defy disciplinary characterization. They demand multiple epistemologies, theoretical orientations (e.g. construction, analysis or intervention) and value considerations. As our understanding of this emerging field of study grows, we become aware that the sciences of design require a systemic perspective that spans disciplinary boundaries. The Doctoral Consortium at the Design Science Research Conference in Information Sciences and Technology (DESRIST) was an important milepost in their evolution. It provided a forum where students and leading researchers in the design sciences challenged one …

A Two-Stage Architecture For Stock Price Forecasting By Integrating Self-Organizing Map And Support Vector Regression, Sheng-Hsun Hsu, J.J. Po-An Hsieh, Ting-Chih Chih, Kuei-Chu Hsu

Computer Information Systems Faculty Publications

Stock price prediction has attracted much attention from both practitioners and researchers. However, most studies in this area ignored the non-stationary nature of stock price series. That is, stock price series do not exhibit identical statistical properties at each point of time. As a result, the relationships between stock price series and their predictors are quite dynamic. It is challenging for any single artificial technique to effectively address this problematic characteristics in stock price series. One potential solution is to hybridize different artificial techniques. Towards this end, this study employs a two-stage architecture for better stock price prediction. Specifically, the …

How Cios Can Enable Governance Of Value Nets, Arun Rai, Vallabh Sambamurthy, Ritu Agarwal

Computer Information Systems Faculty Publications

Value nets are the architecture of sourcing agreements and alliances that firms implement to gain complementary resources and capabilities from other firms. They are a source of innovation, growth, and competitive success. However, governing value nets is challenging, and the IT support needed to enable them depends on the governance mode a firm chooses. Based on case studies of three Fortune 100 firms, we define three governance modes—prescriptive, evaluative, and collaborative. Prescriptive governance specifies partners' activities and retains decisions rights. It is effectively supported by dashboards that monitor the status of partners' activities, alerts that surface exceptions and errors, business …
