Strategic Alliances For Technology Adoption: Alliances And Partnerships For Blockchain Adoption, Anju Babu, Charles Weber
Strategic Alliances For Technology Adoption: Alliances And Partnerships For Blockchain Adoption, Anju Babu, Charles Weber
Engineering and Technology Management Faculty Publications and Presentations
This paper aims to study the relevance and importance of strategic alliances for emerging technology adoption. The case researched and discussed here is Blockchain adoption in the semiconductor industry. As a technology, Blockchain has been around for over a decade and is known to provide tremendous value in business transactions. However, the adoption has not gained traction mainly due to the fact that it takes a network to adopt an industrial Blockchain and cannot work in silos. Most companies are shying away from it as they haven't explored what makes a successful strategy for adoption. A literature review was done …
The Changing Moral Mirror Of Society: From Human To Artifical Intelligent Systems, Gary Langford, Teresa Langford
The Changing Moral Mirror Of Society: From Human To Artifical Intelligent Systems, Gary Langford, Teresa Langford
Engineering and Technology Management Faculty Publications and Presentations
Management of technology and its development carry along the responsibility and consequences for interactions between Human and Artificial Intelligent Systems (AIS). In spite of all good intentions, the effects and repercussions of conflicts between Human and the systems built with intent to assist Human may be proceeding along the path that will recognize a dismal mistake in judgment. Dreadful and intolerable impositions on Human behavior may arise regardless of how AIS is designed. That is not to say progress should cease, but rather to make the case that intensely determined efforts need to delve into the uses and implications of …
Planning For Change In The Electric Power Industry: A Primer For Transactive Energy Scenario Development, Joshua Binus
Planning For Change In The Electric Power Industry: A Primer For Transactive Energy Scenario Development, Joshua Binus
Engineering and Technology Management Faculty Publications and Presentations
The electric power industry and its associated infrastructures (a.k.a. "the grid") are evolving from centrally planned, organized, and operated networks of players, technologies, and resources to systems of systems that are increasingly digitized and distributed in their operation and innovative capacity. Subsequently, strategic planners and technology managers associated with the electric power industry are faced with a range of scenarios to evaluate, including one that considers the emergence of commercialized transactive energy systems in the coming ten-year time horizon. The crafting of a transactive energy scenario can help inform technology innovation and management efforts that benefit consumers, electricity providers, and …
Mitigating High-Skill Brain Drain In Low-Growth Economies: An Examination Of Existing Brain-Drain Threats In New Mexico And Strategy And Policy Alternative To Address Them, Aaron T. Cowan, Kelly R. Cowan, Steven T. Walsh
Mitigating High-Skill Brain Drain In Low-Growth Economies: An Examination Of Existing Brain-Drain Threats In New Mexico And Strategy And Policy Alternative To Address Them, Aaron T. Cowan, Kelly R. Cowan, Steven T. Walsh

This study analyzes the challenges faced by struggling or low-growth economies when they lose highly skilled human capital via the process of "brain drain" or "ability drain." Such losses pose severe potential hazards to technology-based economic development. Factors related to these phenomena are characterized and examined via literature review and mixed methodology analysis to compare and contrast potential ways to manage brain drain and even achieve positive "brain gain" through individual and business-oriented strategies and policy alternatives.

The Portland International Centre for Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET) was established in 1989. It has since become one of the leading organizations in the field of management of engineering and technology in the world. PICMET provides a strong platform for academicians, industry professionals and government representatives to exchange new knowledge derived from both research and implementation of technology management. To celebrate its 30-year journey, and to show the trends in technology management research and implementation over the past ten years (2009-2018), this paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the more than 3000 papers accepted for inclusion in PICMET …
Managing Technology In Financial Innovation, Frederick Betz
Managing Technology In Financial Innovation, Frederick Betz
Engineering and Technology Management Faculty Publications and Presentations
The topic of managing technology had traditionally focused upon the manufacturing industries; but the service industries grew to become a major sector of industry and commerce. We examine how to manage technology in the financial commercial sector. What is innovation in the financial sector? How does innovation occur in the financial sector? What are the criteria of technology safety in financial innovations? Why did financial innovation contribute to financial instabilities, such as the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-08? Why had governmental agencies failed to properly regulate the financial sector for safety? How did U.S. government financial agencies handle that financial …
