基于流程活动的IT与企业战略匹配测量

在信息系统领域理论研究中,如何测量IT与企业战略匹配仍是一个没有解决的问题。本研究首先以亨德森(Henderson)和文卡特拉曼(Venkatraman,1999)提出的战略匹配模型为基础,将IT战略的内涵聚焦为实现的应用软件组合给组织提供的支持上。然后,根据这一思路提出了衡量IT战略的维度应该符合三个条件,并说明了流程活动是适合的维度。同时,在IT与企业战略匹配值的计算方法上,我们对传统的调节匹配(moderation)方法提出了改进建议。最后,我们用中国制造业101家企业首席信息官(CIO)的调查数据进行了分析,结果表明本研究测量方法的有效性得到了支持。     

工商管理专业实践教学特点、限制因素及对策

开放教育工商管理专业实践教学具有三方面的特点但同时面临资金、硬件、师资等条件限制。解决开放教育工商管理专业实践教学问题是一个系统工程,必须综合分析,系统谋划,紧紧围绕应用型人才培养目标进行。     

上海建设国际现代服务型大都市的战略思考

上海作为国际大都市与长三角龙头,必须以服务业为主确定区域发展目标,发挥对长三角与中国经济发展的引领与带动作用。但与纽约、伦敦等其他国际服务型大都市相比,上海存在明显的现代服务经济功能缺失,而这种缺失又影响到中国经济的转型升级。如何把上海建设成为现代服务业示范区,如何改变服务业比重始终处于＂滞后＂状态,如何通过发展现代服务业为进一步生产或者最终消费提供服务的中间投入,本文提出了一些建议。     

近代长江中下游灯塔体系及其防护

灯塔对近代航运发展和航道安全而言具有举足轻重的意义。传统研究更多是从全国层面切入或以沿海地区为中心分析灯塔的发展变迁，并未对内河特别是长江流域的灯塔建设进程及其所面临的安全问题进行过专门讨论，忽视了内河流域相较于沿海地区在灯塔建设防护中的特殊性。利用灯塔表和相关报刊资料对长江中下游灯塔发展及其防护措施的变化进行分析发现，由于灯塔建设中资金不足、人员较少、防护措施简陋和配套制度不够完善，长江中下游的灯塔及其人员比沿海灯塔和灯塔职员更容易成为盗窃和抢劫犯罪的目标，这种风险的存在也影响到航运和航行人员的安全。     

Teaching in Iran: culture and consequences

The purpose of this paper is to examine cultural effects on interactions within a Canadian MBA programme delivered in Iran. The analysis helps illuminate some of the important cultural differences between the countries and their importance for international education. The study also illustrates how single cause explanations often provide simplistic interpretations of culturally influenced behaviours. Results indicate that underlying cultural differences create issues for teaching and learning, but that their impact is subtle and complex.     

The business ecosystem concept in innovation policy context: building a conceptual framework

The aim of this conceptual paper is to explore the business ecosystem concept in innovation policy context, and question whether it has something new to bring to the innovation policy field compared to previous theoretical discussions. A comparative study was conducted where three widely utilized policy approaches were examined together with the business ecosystem concept. The ecosystem concept differs from the three approaches, for example, in its evolving around innovation, and its self-organizing and self-renewing nature. This paper sets a conceptual basis for further empirical research concerning the innovation policy implications of the business ecosystem concept.     

Re-distributed manufacturing and the food-water-energy nexus: opportunities and challenges

Abstract

Addressing the intersection of two important emerging research areas, re-distributed manufacturing (RDM) and the food-energy-water (FEW) nexus, this work combines insights from engineering, business and policy perspectives and explores opportunities and challenges towards a more localized and sustainable food system. Analysis centred on two specific food products, namely bread and tomato paste reveals that the feasibility and potential of RDM vary with the type of food product and the supply chain (SC) components. Physically, energy efficiency, water consumption and reduction of waste and carbon footprint may be affected by scale and location of production activities and potentials of industrial symbiosis. From the business perspective, novel products, new markets and new business models are expected in order for food RDM to penetrate within the established food industry. Studies on policies, through the lens of public procurement, call for solid evidence of envisioned environmental, social and economic benefits of a more localized food system. An initial integrated framework is proposed for understanding and assessing food RDM and the FEW nexus.     

质性研究与管理学科建设:基于工商人类学的思考

基于对国内管理学研究方法的反思,分析了偏重于“定量”的问题,同时对社会科学中经典的质性研究方法进行简要梳理,提出了加深对质性研究方法认识的必要性.科学研究的本质在于创新,原则是去伪存真,不应被研究方法桎梏.在对主流质性研究方法梳理的基础上,对人类学分支学科工商人类学进行综述.基于此,明确工商人类学在管理本土化过程中的重要作用.     

Approximate solution of a profit maximization constrained virtual business planning problem

A virtual business problem is studied, in which a company-contractor outsources production to specialized subcontractors. Finances of the contractor and resource capacities of subcontractors are limited. The objective is to select subcontractors and distribute a part of the demanded production among them so that the profit of the contractor is maximized. A generalization of the knapsack problem, called Knapsack-of-Knapsacks (K-of-K), is used to model this situation, in which items have to be packed into small knapsacks and small knapsacks have to be packed into a large knapsack. A fully polynomial time approximation scheme is developed to solve the problem K-of-K.     

电子商务商业方法专利化之探析

域外对电子商务商业方法的保护倾向于将其作为专利加以保护。从法理学角度看，一般是基于以下3点：文化与法的相互促进作用；法理学中公平正义的理念；立法初衷遵循高效司法。从经济学角度看，一般是基于经济效益理念中激励效益与投资效益的双赢。此外，授权成本率模型中各影响因子，即权利人因被授权专利而获取的利益可能系数，以及其他市场主体因被受权专利而遭到的竞争障碍可能系数的变化也是不能忽略的因素。对我国的借鉴意义主要体现在立法上，可以考虑从法律渊源、时效保护以及评判标准入手，加大对电子商务商业方法的保护力度。
