The research on relationship between IT capabilities and firm performance is hot. However, we found that many studies regard the IT capability as a whole ignoring the types of IT capabilities. Meantime they do not take into account the industry environment conditions that influence the relationship. First, we propose IT capability can be divided into IT capability of base, IT capability of application...
The environment in which modern enterprises are characterized by one constant — change. In order for a company that could provide an adequate response to them is necessary to dispose of the right information at the right time. Given the extraordinary complexity of the business, it's not so easy. This paper put emphasis on Zachmanov framework, as well as structured and formal way to present the overall...
Independent verification and validation (IVV) has been a key process for decades, and is highlighted in several international certification standards. Some require independent safety auditors, others require particular process objectives to be satisfied with independence, others force an independent testing team or quality assurance team, or even independent resources for several different SDP processes...
In this paper, the author compares the common estimation method with UCP estimation method, summarizes the estimation methods of software development in software industry, and use UCP estimation method applied to Software Industry to estimate the workload. We expound how to apply UCP estimation method to the estimation process improvement of the companies in Software system industry, which has been...
Current dynamic and turbulent markets require flexible business processes that increasingly depend on fast and reliable information flows between heterogeneous companies. This relies on innovative types of integrated applications on all layers -- technological, organizational and process-related -- and a holistic managerial framework to establish a smoothly operating layer integration. Thus, we first...
In this paper, we propose an effective weighted matrix algorithm applicable to large-scale telecom services that determines the actual connection status after receiving network devices' alarms. In this algorithm, the alarm emitting route is divided into paths. Each path is analyzed by calculating various given weights in accordance to alarm types. After the calculation, the result can accurately identify...
When executing a manufacturing process, under some circumstances nonconformances may occur in the part, which result in problems such as worker stress, line stoppage, delay in product shipping, and customer loss. In order to reduce or eliminate the above problems, when a nonconformance is identified, it is very important that the possible causes are determined and their solutions put into practice...
Under electronic commerce circumstance, it is very urgent for modern enterprise to solve the problem how to meet customer's individual demand. The availability of data on consumer profiles has opened new possibilities for companies to increase their revenue via data mining techniques. We study algorithms for the product-set pricing problem, where, given consumer preferences among products and the...
Firstly reviews related researches at home and abroad, combines related theories and author's analysis, finds out the likely determinants of internal control quality, and then collects the sample data to test them empirically. The empirical results show: the larger the size, the higher the quality of internal control; the quality of internal control will be higher if the proportion of the largest...
With the social progress and the development of technology, the theory of complex adaptive system (CAS) has become a new field to be discussed, which has scientific significance. The organizational system is a CAS and it will be analyzed in the view of complex system in this paper. The function of CAS in the study of the organization management systems will be discussed here with the example of supply...
Extreme programming (XP) techniques and other advances in software development allow for creation of a code base which is more easily understood and maintained. This often leads to faster enhancements, at a lower cost, and with fewer defects. However, when these practices are not followed, problems within the code base can manifest themselves as technical debt. The following report details the experience...
After the Second World War, accompanying world economies rapid development, project management emerged as a management discipline to manage complex projects. Project management is an activity which includes knowledge, tools, skills and methods to meet customer and project's demands. Currently, delivery projects are being bigger, and some projects are more than billion USD. These delivery projects'...

Thus, companies try to enhance their digital creativities to more firmly establish their competitiveness in the marketplace. The purpose of this research is to longitudinally explore the evolutionary pattern of digital creativity in...
This article applies complex adaptive system (CAS) theory to research the growth path of OEM upgrades to OBM, and points that growth path of OEM upgrades to OBM is a complex adaptive system, analyzes the complex adaptive system features of OEM upgrades to OBM; and then researches the interaction between agents, open, tagging, diversity, self-organization and so on aspects of the system, and further...
The growing success of WS-related technologies has resulted in a large number of providers, which implement services of varying degree of sophistication and complexity. While on the one hand the availability of a wide array of services has created a competitive and flexible market that suits well the needs of different type of users, on the other hand, it requires them to select among possibly hundreds...
With the swift development of modern science and technology and fortified trend of economics globalization, As an advanced manufacturing mode, Servitization of Manufacturing coincides the reform trend of Manufacturing Industry. Almost at the same time, knowledge has become the most important strategic resource. However, the research of what influences knowledge transfer in Servitization of Manufacturing...
In supply chain, business objectives are changing from own value creation maximum into their whole value creation maximum of supply chain. From the connotation of supply chain value creation, we discussed supply chain process and implementation of value creation, gave supply chain value creation process and implementation model, and discussed main realization methods of supply chain value creation...
With the development of distributed computing and e-business, the research of web services composition will further advance. This paper proposes a web service composition model for multi-issues negotiation, the algorithms of coalition net construction and the solution to web services composition search on basis of existing the research of web services negotiation and composition.
Diversified financial operation has its advantages such as the economics of scale, economics of scope and X-efficiency. Meanwhile, it also causes complex special financial risks. When the cost of the integration and supervision equals the incremental non-risk return and risk premium return, the financial conglomerates achieve the equilibrium of the minimum of the risk and the maximum of the profit.
Defined the innovative enterprises growth path, explained the growth process of the innovative enterprises that the innovative enterprises achieve the developing goals through interaction between the quality growth and the quantity growth of the innovative enterprises. Thoroughly analyzed the formation of the innovative enterprises growth path by means of the complexity theory, revealed the innovative...
