Wholly proprietary versus wholly open knowledge strategies: some empirical evidences from Italian biotech firms

This paper focuses on biotechnologies and biotech companies. Our aim is to develop a model for assessing the openness degree of knowledge governance strategies, applying it to the biotech firms. Biotech production is described as an emerging meta-industry in the global economy, fostering through new products, many socio-economic fields. Its main features are: a close relationship among knowledge, innovation and competitiveness; the need for collaborative research; the importance of small firms. Our paper begins with a brief characterization of the biotech meta-sector. We then review the literature regarding the advantages and disadvantages of ??wholly proprietary?? versus ??wholly open?? knowledge strategies. Next we propose a model and report the main results of its application to biotech companies in Italy. In conclusion, we evaluate the degree of openness of the company knowledge strategies based upon empirical evidence from our research in the field.

Ans?tze einer Produktionstheorie des Serienanlaufs

Over the last few decades, the number of production ramp-ups has risen substantially due to the increasingly fast pace of both technology and product life cycles. Up to now, however, the growing significance of ramp-ups for companies and their development has not been adequately addressed by business science from a theoretical perspective. We contribute by outlining a research map of production ramp-up from a theoretical perspective and identifying outstanding ramp-up characteristics: the initially lacking control over production quality, advancing experience effects, and the varying intensity of production as the operationalisation of the production ramp-up-policy. Existing models are then being analysed, as to how far they are able to reflect the so-sketched phenomenon of production ramp-up. By subsequently introducing a model of production ramp-up based on elements of these models, this study is to advance the development of a theory of production ramp-up. The proposed model builds upon a dynamisation of Gutenberg??s production model in order to explain the characteristic curve of production ramp-up.     

Der Einfluss von Mehrfachmandatstr?gern auf die Unternehmensperformance

Although interlocking directorates are regularly associated with a negative connotation, empirical evidence is as yet insufficient to offer convincing answers about their impact on performance. Contradicting results can mostly be explained both by the use of different theoretical frameworks and value creation measures. In order to shed more light as to what effect busy directors have on shareholder??s wealth, we have developed a two-pillar model explaining the potential contributions of directorship interlocks to value creation within an enlarged corporate governance perspective. The validity of the model has been tested through a panel data analysis of director networks within German Blue Chip corporations over a 5 year period from 2001 to 2005. Empirical tests indicate that the performance effects of interlocks depend on the nature of the board positions occupied. Moreover, statistical modelling confirms the existence of cognitive contributions of interlocked directors and partially shows positive effects on value creation. Finally the study argues in favour of board composition without external executive directors and suggests that a simple reduction of the number of external board positions legally authorized, does not within itself enhance corporate performance.     

基于知识元的突发事件风险分析

科学地分析突发事件的风险,有利于应急管理部门正确制定应对方案,降低事件损失。突发事件风险分析中受到多因素高维数据和小样本数据信息不完备的约束,无法全面识别突发事件的风险。本文从突发事件系统观点出发,以知识元模型、投影寻踪方法和信息扩散理论为基础,提出了基于知识元的突发事件风险分析方法。该方法采用知识元模型描述了突发事件已认知的共性本体特征,通过探寻事件风险等级标准数据的最佳投影方向降低了输入元素观测数据的维数,将输入元素观测样本所包含的风险信息扩散到输出属性的风险指标论域的控制点上,从而确定了突发事件发生的风险概率。实例分析中,根据国家《地表水环境质量标准（GB3838-2002）》划分水污染风险等级,利用某湖泊8个监测点实时检测数据,分析该湖泊突发水污染事件的风险性。研究结果表明基于知识元的突发事件风险分析方法能够根据研究区域突发事件风险等级标准和观测点的样本数据,动态定量的分析和评估突发事件潜在风险,为突发事件的应急管理提供科学依据。本文提出的突发事件风险方法对于已经建立实时监测系统的危险区域分析突发事件的风险性具有一定的借鉴意义。     

The international training of expatriates in Western subsidiaries of emerging multinational enterprises: A knowledge-based perspective

There is a considerable gap in academic theoretical literature about the international training of expatriates in multinational enterprises (MNEs). While the majority of research has focused on developed (Western) multinationals operating in developing countries, very limited research has been conducted on emerging multinational enterprises (EMNEs) operating in developed countries and the expatriates who work in them. In this study, we explore the international training of expatriates in Indian MNEs from the information technology industry operating in Australia to examine how they provide training to their expatriate staff who are sent on international assignments. We collected qualitative data in the form of multiple case studies via interviews with senior executives based in the Australian subsidiaries. Our findings reveal that Indian IT MNEs provide a variety of centralised training programmes for their managerial and technical expatriates and use training as a key instrument to leverage and transfer home country knowledge to their Australian subsidiaries. We also found that each stakeholder involved in the training process plays a distinct role in the knowledge transfer process, which allows Indian EMNEs to integrate the training with their people-centred business model to deliver IT services in host countries.     

基于知识结构的顾客知识共享激励机制研究

文章从知识结构的视角构建了基于委托——代理理论的顾客知识共享激励机制模型,创新性地分析了在信息对称和信息不对称情况下,共享知识中显性知识和隐性知识比例的变化对顾客知识共享努力水平及收益分配系数的影响,并运用MATLAB软件对该模型进行了仿真分析。研究结果表明（1）顾客的努力水平与共享知识的组成结构有关,且当显性知识和隐性知识比例均为0.5时努力水平达到最大值;（2）当知识组成结构相同时,信息不对称情况下的努力水平低于信息对称情况下的努力水平;（3）收益分配系数与共享知识的组成结构有关,且当隐性知识比例为1时收益分配系数达到最大值;（4）收益共享比例与风险规避程度成反比。基于此,提出了企业应制定基于共享知识结构的顾客知识共享评价机制和利益分配机制,并根据顾客的风险规避程度对收益分配系数进行调整,为企业知识共享激励机制的制定与实施提供了理论指导。

Decision knowledge sharing: flexible supply chains in KM context

Supply chain excellence has a real impact on business strategy. Building supply chains as flexible systems represents one of the most exciting opportunities to create value and one of the most challenging tasks for the policy makers. It requires integrated decision making amongst autonomous chain partners with effective decision knowledge sharing between them. The key to success lies in knowing which decision has more impact on the overall performance and this can be achieved by appropriate knowledge sharing. In this context, knowledge management (KM) can be used as an effective approach to achieve knowledge sharing and decision synchronisation in supply chains. Flexible supply chains (FSC_s) are more complex and involve multiple autonomous players with varying technical cultures (affects knowledge mindsets), managerial background (affects decision knowledge) and supply chain management (SCM) exposures (affects knowledge sharing attitudes). Thus there is a need to develop demo models that can encourage chain managers towards collaborative knowledge sharing in the supply chains. This paper presents the application of one such model based on decision knowledge sharing (DKS) for improved supply chain management. A simulation model of a flexible supply chain based on DKS framework is developed for demo purposes. The key results are highlighted along with industry implications. The cost based performance of DKS at different levels of flexibility is studied. Thus a careful analysis of the chain with a focus on collaborative decisions is useful to ensure success. This paper addresses this interesting and challenging domain.

Die Evaluation von betrieblichen Weiterbildungsma?nahmen

Although there is a sharp increase of job training measures in firms we have scarce knowledge if and how the management check the quality of those programs by assigning evaluation instruments. This is especially crucial for training measures which are provided by firm-external trainers. In this paper we focus on the assignment of evaluation procedures which can be analyzed as a result of rational decision making as well as a process driven by institutional determinants. Based on the Swiss Organization Survey on Job Training we test some hypotheses derived from both theoretical frameworks. The results show that the assignment of evaluation instruments varies in respect to the type of job training or the characteristics of the department??s managers. We conclude that the decisions on evaluation measures are driven by cost-benefit analysis as well as imitation of other firms.     

手段导向、知识获取与新企业创业能力的实证研究

创业能力对于新企业创造和维持竞争优势具有重要意义,相关研究受到创业领域学者们的广泛关注。然而创业能力的实证研究主要集中于创业者个体层面创业能力的前因和结果分析,组织层面的创业能力的实证研究尚处于探索阶段,仍有待运用有效的理论揭示新企业如何构建组织层面创业能力的内在机理和路径。作为新兴的创业理论,手段导向理论有助于面临高不确定性的新企业在创业过程中持续进行迭代式学习,而组织学习理论认为,知识获取作为组织学习的核心环节有助于组织创业能力的构建。因此,手段导向可能通过知识获取提升新企业创业能力。然而,少有学者关注此方面研究。 运用手段导向理论和组织学习理论,深入剖析手段导向各维度对创业能力的积极影响,检验知识获取在手段导向与创业能力关系间的中介作用。采取大样本问卷调查,收集215家中国新企业数据,并运用多元线性回归分析和因子分析等方法进行实证检验。 研究结果表明,手段导向的4个维度均对创业能力具有积极影响,试验、可承受损失和先前承诺3个维度通过知识获取提升新企业创业能力,但是知识获取在柔性与新企业创业能力关系间的中介作用不显著。 研究结论对于丰富和拓展组织层面创业能力相关研究和推动手段导向理论的发展具有重要意义,为新企业如何在高不确定性和强资源约束下构建组织创业能力提供必要的理论指导。     

Vertrauen als Merkmal von Beziehungsqualit?t: Modellentwicklung und explorative Interviews im Kontext sportpsychologischer Betreuung

A model is developed, defining interpersonal trust as the consequence of the individual??s evaluation concerning personal conditions and task conditions of counselling. Regarding evaluation, a situational, contextual, and global orientation is distinguished. Five expert-interviews are presented, aimed to test the structure and applicability of the given model in the practice. Goodwill and esteem for the athlete, both situational and contextual connected, were stressed by the experts as important for trust building so as the attribution of a trustful personality was. The interviewed experts ranked expertness as a factor of lower significance for trust building. Discrepancies between the theoretical model and the experts?? opinion refer to future research and opportunities to optimize counselling.     

带有市场交易信息和随机微观噪声下的杠杆效应研究

在风险管理中杠杆效应的现象广泛存在，也是金融计量学中的重要议题。高频金融市场中蕴含着丰富的交易信息，而这些信息并不能都看作随机噪声，因此探讨利用市场交易信息并在带有随机噪声模型下研究杠杆效应具有重要意义。本文在带有市场交易信息和随机微观噪声相结合的模型下研究了杠杆效应，提出了新的杠杆效应估计，该估计具有n^1/8的收敛速度，同时给出了估计的方差和相关的定理。通过模拟分析得出利用广泛的市场微观信息可以更有效和更精确地对杠杆效应进行估计，模拟的结果表明本文提出的杠杆效应估计具有更好的渐近正态性和更小的偏差。最后将提出的估计应用到实证分析中，发现杠杆效应对未来一天波动率的预测具有显著性影响。     

Policies for knowledge refreshing in databases

Knowledge discovery in databases (KDD) provides organizations necessary tools to sift through vast data stores to extract knowledge. This process supports and improves decision making in organizations. In this paper, we introduce and define the concept of knowledge refreshing, a critical step to ensure the quality and timeliness of knowledge discovered in a KDD process. This has been unfortunately overlooked by prior researchers. Specifically, we study knowledge refreshing from the perspective of when to refresh knowledge so that the total system cost over a time horizon is minimized. We propose a model for knowledge refreshing, and a dynamic programming methodology for developing optimal strategies. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology using data from a real world application. The proposed methodology provides decision makers guidance in running KDD effectively and efficiently.     

BUSINESS STRATEGY,MANUFACTURING FLEXIBILITY,AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE RELATIONSHIPS: A PATH ANALYSIS APPROACH

It has been argued in the literature that business strategy and manufacturing flexibility independently affect the performance of an organization. However, no empirical examination of the interrelationship among these three constructs has been performed. In this paper, based on a field study of 269 firms in the manufacturing industry, the identified constructs have been used to test a theoretical model using path analysis techniques. Our results indicate that business strategy contributes both directly and indirectly to organizational performance. The findings provide evidence of direct effects of (i) business strategy on manufacturing flexibility and (ii) manufacturing flexibility on organizational performance.
