The increased growth of higher education institution (HEI) in Indonesia led to greater competition. On the other hand, the researchers say the use of information systems is assessed to be able to increase the competitive advantage for the organization. This research aimed to analyze the influence of IS adoption and IS capability toward IS innovation and IS strategic planning as well as its implication...
Wisdom Manufacturing (WM) as a service-oriented and knowledge-based humans-computers-things collaborative manufacturing model, innovation is central to realize WM. In this paper, innovation models such as closed innovation, open innovation, embedded innovation are analyzed. Then the global innovation model for WM is proposed through the fusion of those innovation models. Finally TRIZ-based innovation...
In product development and planning, enterprises often adopt matrix chart for strategic study. For example, QFD for the quality control of product parts and their best combination of quality control analysis or image words for two-dimension image scale for product appearance analysis or product appealing, purchase intention for consumer's preference study. Furthermore, value evaluation by the weights...
The earlier result of his research showed that most Taiwanese SME designers were frustrated in innovations since it takes hard evidences to persuade their managements, but they are in lack of resources. Thus, this research proposed the SSFD model with ready templates to help them. This paper focused on the third stage of the SSFD Model, i.e. "The Stage of Strategy Formulation". It will help...
The authors examine the question in the article whether it is demonstrable a company's innovations decision impacts from public revenue data. The results obtained by applied mathematical model, describes the typical growth tendencies of the product lifecycle. We can see from some examples, how the revenue was influenced by the introduction of a specific product, or launching a new campaign, how long...
Continuous innovation is the cornerstone of competitiveness in technological product and services companies. However, maintaining that competitive edge over time requires a company to have business practices that offer repeatable success. One way to achieve that is to ensure that all relevant functional groups across a company have responsibility for driving innovative designs, rather than simply...
Online experiments are frequently used at internet companies to evaluate the impact of new designs, features, or code changes on user behavior. Though the experiment design is straightforward in theory, in practice, there are many problems that can complicate the interpretation of results and render any conclusions about changes in user behavior invalid. Many of these problems are difficult to detect...
The basic directions of promotion of the development tendencies of quality management in the current market in the direction of formation of system based on the principles of total quality management.
Systems engineering (SE) combined with Strategic Management must play crucial roles in planning of producing valued products in Armored Vehicle Manufacturers (AVMs) in the developing countries, UAE and Saudi Arabia in particular. However, owners of those AVMs have been reluctant to use such managerial disciplines and entirely have rested on their entrepreneur's characteristics to manage their small...
This paper reports a mixed methods study of the parameters and activities that instantiate the invention processes of proto-entrepreneurs during Startup Weekends. The study answers how startup weekends generate and refine ideas over a short span of a weekend and which Aristotelian topics of invention are deployed. The project uses case study methods to examine the invention processes as articulated...
Innovations around "Big Data" can be characterized in terms of rapid technology development and deployment dynamics. For this purpose, combining "tech mining" (extraction of usable intelligence) from publication and patent databases with tech mining of business-related databases can elucidate activities and interests of business communities regarding Big Data innovation pathways...
In this paper we will report our development of digital manufacturing toolbox which supports small and medium-sized enterprises in their cognitive and practical production development processes. The toolbox — or a set of tools — is part of a more extensive toolbox of supports for companies, which is developed as an essential part of the TARGET — Making Regional Manufacturing Globally Competitive and...
This study aims to investigate the impact of investor protection on external financing. In developing economies like Pakistan, companies having foreign ownership have more access towards external finance as compared to companies having domestic ownership. Data extracted from 70 non-financial sector companies for the period 2003–2013, was analyzed by using fixed effect model. The findings showed that...
Economic managers make goal-seeking decisions under the combination of circumstances. In this paper we put the emphasis on the managers working environment. Distinguishing features of high-end technologies management are considered. Mathematical techniques which can be applied to a decision making process are briefly described.
Idea Management (IM) communities have the potential to transform business and communities through innovation. However, building successful communities is a difficult endeavor that requires a significant amount of both community management and technological support. Doing this requires a good understanding of how IM systems are used and how users behave, as these are fundamental aspects for the design...
Business system implementation has became a crucial aspect for industries to be able to run their business process effectively and efficiently. One of industries that require business system implementation is the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME). However, it should be highlighted that the need for the business system module varies, depends on company size, innovation phases, as well as industrial...
Data profiling is an information analysis technique on data stored inside database. Data profiling purpose is to ensure data quality by detecting whether the data in the data source compiles with the established business rules. Profiling could be performed using multiple analysis techniques depending on the data element to be analyzed. The analysis process also influenced by the data profiling tool...
The evolution of the technologies leading to new products and that governs the economy of modern countries imposes a permanent innovative behavior. China government tries to answer to this need in the frame of a national policy. However, this strategy needs adaptation of the cultural behavior and of the educational system. This approach can need a long time. In this paper, several analyses are described...
