Multi-platform ecosystems (MPEs) are comprised of multiple platforms integrated to create and capture value together. The collective value creation and capture within MPEs gives rise to coopetion, which impacts the business model configurations for both incumbents and entrants that provide complementary offerings. Previous platform research has predominantly focused on incumbent platforms. This research focuses on the question of how entrant platforms configure their business models to endorse coopetition with incumbents in the MPEs within the healthcare sector. Our findings indicate that entrant platforms configure their business models to integrate into MPEs and need to flexibly align with the complementarity requirements set by the incumbents, combine inter- and intra-platform collaborative dynamics in their business models, and build on coopetition with incumbents.

Digital platform business model innovation is a rapidly evolving field, yet the literature on resource, complementary, and ecological boundaries remains limited, leaving a significant gap in our understanding of the factors that shape the success of these platforms. This paper explores the mechanisms by which digital platforms enable business model innovation, a topic of significant theoretical and practical importance that has yet to be fully examined. Through a review of the existing literature and an examination of the connotations of digital platforms, the design of platform boundaries, and the deployment of boundary resources, the study finds that (1) the uncertainty of complementors and complementary products drives business model innovation in digital platforms; (2) the design of resource, complementary, and ecological system boundaries is crucial to digital platform business models and manages complementor and complementary product uncertainty while promoting value co-creation; and (3) boundary resources establish, manage, and sustain cross-border relationships that impact value creation and capture. Based on these findings, four research propositions are proposed to guide future research on digital platform business model innovation and provide insights for effectively innovating business models and influencing value creation and capture.

Abstract This paper studies the bundling strategies of two firms that each sell a horizontally differentiated platform and a complementary good. When the complementary goods are vertically differentiated, the firm that sells the superior one can commit to a more aggressive pricing strategy through bundling. In the presence of asymmetry in externalities between the two sides in the platform market, bundling may be profitable without foreclosing the rival when platforms implement cross subsidies from the high-externality side (developers) to the low-externality side (consumers). Bundling has a positive effect on welfare because it allows for better internalization of the indirect network effects and reduces the developer cost of multi-homing, but it also has a negative effect because some consumers consume less-preferred components. Consequently, bundling is socially desirable when platforms are not too differentiated and the vertical differentiation between the complementary goods is high.

Based on previous research on open innovation and appropriability strategies, using knowledge production functions and evolutionary game methods, this paper describes the process of dynamic cooperation between open innovation platforms and their participants. This paper specifically analyzes the influence of open innovation platform’s knowledge appropriability/knowledge sharing strategies, as well as participants’ exit/nonexit strategy, on the cooperative relationship. Through simulation analysis, this paper draws the following conclusions: first, the knowledge appropriability strategy of the open innovation platform and the participant’s nonexit strategy is an important strategic point of the cooperation between open innovation platforms and participants; second, the amount of knowledge production affects the strategic choices of open innovation platforms, while the knowledge increment affects the strategic choices of participants; third, the appreciation coefficient of complementary assets determines the direction of evolution of the cooperation process.

Digital technologies are radically transforming our work environments and demand for skills, with certain jobs being automated away and others demanding mastery of new digital techniques. This global challenge of rapidly changing skill requirements due to task automation overwhelms workers. The digital skill gap widens further as technological and social transformation outpaces national education systems and precise skill requirements for mastering emerging technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence, remain opaque. Online labour platforms could help us to understand this grand challenge of reskilling en masse. Online labour platforms build a globally integrated market that mediates between millions of buyers and sellers of remotely deliverable cognitive work. This commentary argues that, over the last decade, online labour platforms have become the ‘laboratories’ of skill rebundling; the combination of skills from different occupational domains. Online labour platform data allows us to establish a new taxonomy on the individual complementarity of skills. For policy makers, education providers and recruiters, a continuous analysis of complementary reskilling trajectories enables automated, individual and far-sighted suggestions on the value of learning a new skill in a future of technological disruption.

This study takes a review and theory development (RTD) approach to synthesizing the software platform literature, offering theoretical perspective and research guidance. In doing so, we conceptualize platform and complementary capabilities for software platform owners and complementors. The review indicates that three dimensions reflect platform capabilities: intermediarity, generativity, and ambidexterity, while complementary capabilities include creativity, interconnectivity, and appropriability dimensions. We derive an integrative framework of software platforms, which explains (1) how software platform owners and complementors improve performance by enhancing their capabilities, and (2) how software platform owners, complementors, and the ecosystem environment coevolve. We then discuss how future research can build on and enrich the research framework

Currently, all major IT and telecom firms are busy trying to stimulate non-contractual complementary developments around their own core competences and offerings. But little has been done to explain the logic, strengths, and weaknesses of non-contractual innovation. The literature on open-platform leadership recognises the importance of non-contractual innovation, but only within the limited confines of a normative approach based on two implicit assumptions: that a platform's core and periphery are sharply and easily differentiated and that platforms are always grown and orchestrated from a monolithic core. Through analysis of two cases of decentralised open innovation: the emergence of video rental stores and the emergence of desktop-publishing systems. I argue that these assumptions do not apply to all open platforms. I conclude that by forcing a hierarchical framework onto the analysis, the normative approach underplays the role of non-contractual innovation and turns a blind eye to the radically self-organised and unforeseeable nature of some platforms' success.

Large-scale online platforms powered by user-generated content are extensively researched as venues of learning and knowledge production. In this ethnographically oriented study, we examine knowledge practices on a community question answering platform for computer programmers in relation to the platform mechanics of voting. Grounded in the practice theoretical perspective and drawing on the analysis of online discussion threads and platform-related online materials, our study unpacks the dominant practice of crowd-based curation, the complementing practice of distributed moderation, and the more marginal practice of providing feedback to content producers. The practices co-exist in tension and consonance, which are embedded in the materiality of the platform and are continuously enacted through user discursive boundary work, sustaining the mentioned practices as intelligible for other users, and outlining what counts as legitimately participation on the platform. The study contributes to existing research on the roles voting plays on online platforms, as well as offers implications for research on social and material organization of users' online practices. The study also discusses that it is the ambiguity around the mechanics of voting that allows practices to co-exist. While this ambiguity is often discussed by users as problematic, we suggest as potential implication of our study that it may be productive to design platforms for workable forms of ambiguity allowing knowledge practices to co-exist in tension and to provide space for user negotiations of these practices.

Web-based platforms play an increasingly important role in managing and sharing research data of all types and sizes. This article presents a case study of the data storage, sharing, and management platform Figshare. We argue that such platforms are displacing and reconfiguring the infrastructure of norms, technologies, and institutions that underlies traditional scholarly communication. Using a theoretical framework that combines infrastructure studies with platform studies, we show that Figshare leverages the platform logic of core and complementary components to re-integrate a presently splintered scholarly infrastructure. By means of this logic, platforms may provide the path to bring data inside a scholarly communication system still optimized mainly for text publications. Yet the platform strategy also risks turning over critical scientific functions to private firms whose longevity, openness, and corporate goals remain uncertain. It may amplify the existing trend of splintering infrastructures, with attendant effects on equity of service.

This paper presents an integrated reference model for digital manufacturing platforms, based on cutting edge reference models for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems. Digital manufacturing platforms use IIoT systems in combination with other added-value services to support manufacturing processes at different levels (e.g. design, engineering, operations planning, and execution). Digital manufacturing platforms form complex multi-sided ecosystems, involving different stakeholders ranging from supply chain collaborators to Information Technology (IT) providers. This research analyses prominent reference models for IIoT systems to align the definitions they contain and determine to what extent they are complementary and applicable to digital manufacturing platforms. Based on this analysis, the Industrial Internet Integrated Reference Model (I3RM) for digital manufacturing platforms is presented, together with general recommendations that can be applied to the architectural definition of any digital manufacturing platform.

2013 - 2014My PhD thesis enters the sphere of the studies which aims at the integration between the outcomes of the research on mathematical education and the outcomes of the research about e-learning. Particularly, the thesis inquires and discusses the potentialities of self assessment in e-learning modality through routs built from the analysis of errors that have been made. In this context, my question of research has been: “to identify a methodology for the building of learning paths, in self-education on e-learning platforms, to overcome difficulties in mathematics” For this reason, first of all I have identified a sphere of intervention and several connected parameters. I chose to treat the learning of linear algebra at first-year of scientific colleges, where mathematics is at the service of practical activities, such as engineering. This choice has been suggested as well by the real chance of having data available both in the starting phase of analysis as in phase of verification /validation. Among the potentialities of e-learning , I’ve chosen to give priority to the personalization of the learning, so the paths to build differ from each other according to the difficulties of any single student. At the same time, I wanted to offer large-scale versions of these paths: so, given the large number of students, I chose to ground such paths on «automatic» instruments findable in e-learning platforms, such as quizzes. ...

We have characterized electroluminescent devices based on silicon rich oxide and/or silicon rich nitride. We have discussed the photoluminescence and structural characterization of the active layers and the electrical and electroluminescent characterization of full devices.
We have noted that the electroluminescence can appear in the form of discrete points scattered across the active area of the devices, in the form of emission along the rim of the active area, or homogeneously distributed across the area. These different kinds of emission have been related to the optical and electrical properties of the devices.
In the two former cases, the electroluminescence comes with high current densities,of the order of 1 A/cm2, and low efficiencies of the order of 10-8. On the other hand, the homogeneous emission comes with lower current densities, of the order of 0.01 A/cm2, and better efficiencies, in the range 10-7–10-5.
We have concluded that the homogeneous emission is optimal in terms of efficiency. Furthermore, a simple model has been proposed to explain the appearance and occasional coexistence of the different kinds of emission.
The effect of a nitride layer on top of the SRO has been explored, concluding that it helps in achieving a uniform conduction that favors the homogeneous emission in the active layer.
The conductivity states of the active layer associated with the different kinds of emission have been related with its CV behavior. The results of the study show that the homogeneous emission corresponds to well behaved CV curves, whereas the emission through points does not.
The injection mechanisms in PECVD and ion implanted samples have been studied, concluding that no single emission mechanism can account for the injection at all regimes in the studied range of electric fields. Fowler-Nordheim or trap assisted tunneling have been found to play a significant role in PECVD samples. In implanted samples, Fowler-Nordheim dominates at low fields, whereas Poole-Frenkel is more likely to be the dominant mechanism at higher fields.
Comparison of the photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectra of bilayers SRO/SRN, allows us to conclude that each layer contributes a different band in the total emission, which results in a wider distribution of the energy across the visible spectrum.
The comparison between the photoluminescence and electroluminescence has revealed massive differences in their spectra, which have been attributed to interference effects.
A computer software based in the Crawford method for the study of the interference effects in multilayer stacks has been presented. The program has been used to quantitatively study the interference effects in the emission of our devices. We can conclude that the photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectra are the same despite their apparent difference. Our analysis has also made it apparent that a quantitative understanding of the interference effects in the system is important in order to draw valid conclusions regarding the origins of the luminescence.
We have presented the design, fabrication and characterization of a CMOS compatible optical transceiver, and two main challenges in the integration of the emitter, waveguide and detector have been successfully overcome, namely achieving a reasonably flat and uniform silicon oxide trench and a good detector.
In the end, the transceiver has not worked as expected, most likely due to a poor SRN emitter. More work is required in order to better control the fabrication process of the SRN layers. However, we believe the basic design to be valid, given the low electrical coupling detected between the emitter and the detector components of the transceiver.Aquesta tesi presenta un estudi de les propietats òptiques de capes d'òxid de silici enriquit en silici (SRO) i nitrur de silici enriquit en silici (SRN) que han sofert un procés tèrmic d'alta temperatura. Aquest procés indueix la creació de nanoaglomerats de silici en la matriu dielèctrica. Aquestes nanoestructures de silici presenten una superior eficiència en l'emissió respecte al silici en bloc, i a més a més emeten en el visible en comptes de l'infraroig. Això és interessant per a l'obtenció de dispositius fotònics integrats basats en silici que poden ser fabricats monolíticament en un procés compatible amb la tecnologia CMOS que domina la indústria microelectrònica. A més a més, hem estudiat les propietats òptiques i elèctriques de dispositius metall-aïllant-semiconductor en les quals l'aïllant és una capa d'SRO o SRN amb nanoaglomerats de silici. N'hem mesurat paràmetres d'interès com ara l'eficiència de conversió d'energia elèctrica-òptica o la potència òptica, i n'hem estudiat els mecanismes d'injecció que hi tenen lloc. S'han identificat tres tipus diferents d'emissió: per punts, per la vora del dispositiu, i emissió homogènia, i hem determinat que l'emissió homogènia és la més adecuada pel que fa a l'eficiència dels dispositius. Hem desenvolupat un programa que permet el càlcul de les interferències òptiques que tenen lloc als sistemes multicapa que conformen els dispositius estudiats, i que distorsionen l'espectre observat respecte al que les capes realment emeten. L'habilitat de poder calcular aquests efectes ens permet, en molts casos, eliminar l'efecte de les interferències i determinar l'autèntic espectre d'emissió de les capes i per tant estar en millors condicions d'assignar l'emissió als mecanismes correctes. Finalment, hem proposat un prototip per a un transceptor en el qual l'emissor, la guia d'ones i el detector estan integrats monolíticament en un procés CMOS. Hem fabricat el dispositiu i l'hem caracteritzat. Tot i que no hem aconseguit acoblament òptic entre l'emissor i el detector, creiem que el disseny bàsic queda validat, ja que els principals obstacles en l'obtenció del dispositiu han sigut superats amb èxit.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2000.Includes bibliographical references (p. 302-313).
This dissertation is an empirical investigation of the processes by which Intel Corporation sustains platform leadership - i.e., the ability of a given firm to influence dynamically the direction of development of other products by a large number of third-parties. It presents an intimate look at Intel's different activities - deployed within and outside the firm - aimed at strategically orchestrating, encouraging, and coordinating complementary innovation in the computer industry. The data come from dozens of interviews of managers and engineers at Intel, complemented with rare access to Intel internal documents and interviews outside the firm. Through an in-depth case-study of Intel focusing on the histories of 22 projects (including both successes and failures) over past nine years, I examine the management processes by which the firm largely succeeds at achieving the global alignment of external innovation, and thus ensures a continuing supply of externally developed complementary products. Several results emerge from the study. Intel invests in: architectural innovations (interfaces), tools for developers, and industry-wide standardization efforts. These strategic activities by Intel appear to be welfare-enhancing. Further, the specific process by which Intel spurs external innovation is a key success factor. Careful management of relationships with third-parties is essential to convey credible commitment not to compete with complementors. To succeed, Intel must manage both external and internal tensions. The main external tensions relate to the perception of a conflict of interest in Intel's innovation-facilitating activities. Internally, Intel must manage the "dissonance" that arises naturally from engaging in the different activities that are necessary to pursue its different objectives. The thesis provides a documented account of the organizational tradeoffs an exemplary architectural leader faces when trying to maintain its position as a platform leader in an environment where other innovators can choose whether to maintain compatibility. In so doing, the study helps uncover some of the managerial and organizational sources of platform leadership.

This work focused on the fabrication and electrical characterization of electronic devices and the applications include the n-channel organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), organic complementary circuits, and the germanium nanowire transistors. In organic devices, carbonyl-functionalized [alpha],[omega]-diperfluorohexyl quaterthiophenes (DFHCO-4T) and N,N' --bis(n-octyl)-dicyanoperylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDI-8CN2) are used as n-type semiconductors. The effect of dielectric/electrode surface treatment on the response of bottom-contact devices was also examined to maximize the device performance. Some of innovative techniques that employ the conducting polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) / poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS) for the fabrication of OFETs, were compared and investigated. The device performance and the fabrication yield were also considered. Organic complementary ring oscillators and D flip-flops were demonstrated with PDI-8CN2 and pentacene as the n-type and ptype material, respectively. Both circuits recorded the highest speed that any organic transistor-based complementary circuit has achieved to date. The speed of these complementary circuits will be enhanced by increasing the mobility of n-channel further as well as reducing channel lengths and overlap capacitances between the source/drain electrodes and the gate. The semiconductors should be solution processible to be compatible with the inexpensive fabrication techniques envisioned for printed electronic circuits. PDI-8CN2 was used for solution-processed n-channel OFETs and the various parameters are compared for the optimization of devices. Utilizing optimized process parameters and surface treatments for solution-deposited PDI-8CN2 OFETs, we have successfully shown the first fabrication of complementary organic ring oscillators and Dflip flops by the micro-injection of the solution of both p-type and n-type materials in air. One of the potential platforms for low cost fabrication on flexible substrates is the use of inorganic semiconductor nanowires. Accordingly, the germanium nanowire FETs were fabricated and characterized. Conductivity enhanced PEDOT/PSS was employed as the electrode material for nanowire transistors to improve the electrical contacts to the source and drain.text

Open source software is Open Innovation only if it has a business model driving it (West and Gallagher 2006). Open Innovation is the paradigm describing the scenario in which firms use a broad range of external sources for innovation and seek a broad range of commercialization alternatives for internal innovation (Chesbrough 2003). The Platform Leader builds the platform and concentrates its efforts on promoting and directing innovation of complementary products in favor of its R&D direction (Cusumano and Gawer 2002). The author has chosen leaders in two distinctive industry sectors— Google, the leader in search engine industry, and Intel, the leader in the microprocessor business for the personal computer industry—as the case study companies for this research. Both cases fit the definition of open innovation since both Google and Intel have specific business models for their open source software platforms. This research explores how industry leaders exploit open source software platforms to realize their specific strategic intents. The research problems are: (1) how companies can incorporate external creativity and innovation to maintain their own innovative momentum; (2) what are the key factors and strategies for building a successful open source software platform and its ecosystem; (3) how can a company use an open source software platform as part of its strategy to enter new markets and promote development of complementary assets to build its competitive advantages. The author proposes the following framework to analyze how leading firms design open source platform strategies: (1) analyze the firm’s core competencies; (2) analyze the firm’s strategic intent for their open source software platform; (3) analyze the firm’s strategies for designing the architecture of their open source software platform; (4) analyze the firm’s strategies for designing the ecosystem around the platform. Based on the analysis of the two comparative cases, the author has been convinced of the following propositions: 1. Firms can use open source software platform to incorporate external creativity and innovations that promote the development of complementary assets and to build or at least maintain their competitive advantage against competitors. 2. Instead of a purely open or purely proprietary platform strategy, platform owners can utilize a hybrid strategy, which combines the advantages of open source and closed source to retain control and differentiation. 3. As opposed to a company-owned open source software platform, a community-owned open source software platform will attract more communities’ involvements and stimulate more innovation. 4. When developing complementary assets, firms should adopt an open innovation approach to incorporate external creativity and innovations; however, when building their core competencies, firms should adopt a more closed innovation approach to maintain their distinctive competitive advantages. 5. One of the key determining factors of a successful open source platform strategy is the platform owner’s ability to create value and enable every partner within the ecosystem to share some portion of it.

With the boom of mineral resources from the middle of the 21st century onwards,
Mozambique has been targeted by countries seeking investment in the extractive
industries sector. Internally, this subject has generated important debates among
– but not exclusive to – political parties in the sense of greater regulation of the
sector. This led to the formation of a coalition of key actors in Mozambican civil society (CS)
leading to the advent of a CS platform for natural resources and extractive industries. However, in
2012, the Mozambican government took an important step in preparing the sector for the upcoming
transformations. It is in this sequence of events that, in the same year, the revision of mining and
petroleum laws appeared, which led CS to appeal for the need for transparency in the sector. This
was accompanied by advocacy campaigns by CS, particularly of the platform referred to above.
Thus, this study intends to answer the following question: what is the typology (or nature) of the
existing relationship between CS and the Government of Mozambique? The study favours a
qualitative methodology based on a case study and self-completion interviews directed at actors in
CS that were selected due to their relevant roles in the advocacy campaigns for the approval of the
Mining and Petroleum Laws in 2014. The results demonstrated that the relations established mainly
have components of complementarity, since this process was driven by different strategies of CS
actors as well as the Government of Mozambique. This case study contributes to the literature on
the relations between the state and civil society in hybrid regimes. Future studies will be important
to verify the extent to which those results are found in other areas of Mozambican politics and what
developments have occurred over time.Com o boom dos recursos minerais a partir de meados do século XXI Moçambique ficou na mira dos países que procuram investimentos no sector da Indústria Extrativa. Internamente esta questão gerou importantes debates entre os partidos políticos no sentido de uma maior regulação do setor mas não só. Tal facto induziu a formação de uma coligação de atores-chave da Sociedade Civil (SC) moçambicana levando ao surgimento de uma Plataforma da SC sobre Recursos Naturais e Indústria Extrativa. Todavia, em 2012, o Governo Moçambicano deu um passo importante ao preparar o setor para as transformações que se avizinhavam. É nesta sequência que, no mesmo ano, surgiu a Revisão das legislações de Minas e Petróleos, o que levou a SC a apelar para a necessidade de transparência do setor, que foram acompanhados por campanhas de advocacy por parte da SC, em especial, da Plataforma acima referida. Assim, o presente estudo pretende responder à seguinte questão: qual a tipologia (ou natureza) das relações existentes entre a SC e Governo de Moçambique? O estudo privilegia uma metodologia qualitativa, baseada num estudo de caso e em entrevistas por autopreenchimento dirigidas aos atores da SC que foram selecionados em função do papel relevante nas campanhas de advocacy para a aprovação da Lei de Minas e Lei dos Petróleos em 2014. Os resultados alcançados demonstram que as relações estabelecidas têm sobretudo componentes de complementaridade, uma vez que este processo foi conduzido por estratégias diferentes por parte da SC bem como do Governo de Moçambique. Este estudo de caso contribui para a literatura sobre as relações entre estado e sociedade civil em regimes híbridos. Estudos futuros serão importantes para verificar em que medida estes resultados se verificam noutras áreas da política moçambicana e que evoluções têm ocorrido ao longo do tempo.

Platformization affects the entire urban transport sector, effectively blurring the division between private and public transport modalities; existing public–private arrangements have started to shift as a result. This chapter analyzes and discusses the emergence of a platform ecology for urban transport, focusing on two central public values: the quality of urban transport and the organization of labor and workers’ rights. Using the prism of platform mechanisms, it analyzes how the sector of urban transport is changing societal organization in various urban areas across the world. Datafication has allowed numerous new actors to offer their bike-, car-, or ride-sharing services online; selection mechanisms help match old and new complementors with passengers. Similarly, new connective platforms are emerging, most prominently transport network companies such as Uber and Lyft that offer public and private transport options, as well as new platforms offering integrated transport services, often referred to as “mobility as a service.”

AbstractTechnology giants owe much of their success to fundamental improvements in the science and technology of information and communications technology. However, complementary advancements were also necessary, and, much as firms had to learn to incorporate electricity in the last nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, we posit that the giant platforms have learned to harness the contributions of external actors in order to grow more rapidly than would otherwise have been possible. Thus, the drivers of the dramatic rise of the tech giant platform firm can be viewed as a business model innovation as well as a technical innovation. As orchestration business models become better understood, we expect that firms in non-platform sectors are increasingly likely to adapt practices that also allow them to participate in and benefit from external value creation. At the same time, we expect regulatory scrutiny to increase as the power and reach of technology giants increases and their influence is felt across the economy.

The combination of Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) technologies such as wave or current devices with offshore wind, a more mature technology, could enable pooling of R&D efforts and reducing costs (grid connection, moorings, maintenance activities…). Moreover, the different characteristics of the wind, wave and current resources could be complementary and provide a smoothing effect on the power production. Therefore, the EU FP7 project -MARINA Platform- aims at studying concepts of combined platforms integrating different types of MRE devices. Many challenges are induced by these innovative platforms and guidelines and standards will be required to ensure safety, reliability and quality. However, as the concepts are only at the development stage, no standards have been written for these combined platforms so far. This paper presents a new approach proposed by Bureau Veritas within the scope of the MARINA project for the development of guidelines and standards dedicated to combined MRE platforms. Existing literature on standards about MRE and related sectors, like shipping, wind energy and offshore oil & gas, forms a good basis to be exploited. In addition, risk assessment and qualification of new technology might be considered as a complement to standards to support the design of novel offshore concepts. Therefore, the presented methodology combines the use of existing standards from MRE and related sectors with a risk-based approach for the most innovative and unknown parts of the platform. A global risk assessment is performed in parallel for a whole review of the system.

The practice of complementary feeding (introducing solid foods alongside breastfeeding) is an important aspect of infant nutrition. However, the timing of introducing complementary feeding is crucial for optimal growth and development. This study aims to investigate the factors associated with early complementary feeding among breastfeeding mothers with infants aged 0-6 months in Kapkatet County Hospital, located in Kericho County. A cross-sectional analytical study design was employed, involving 246 breastfeeding mothers attending Kapkatet County Hospital. Data on demographic characteristics, individual characteristics, cultural practices, and knowledge regarding complementary feeding were collected through structured questionnaires and key informant interviews. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The study found that a significant proportion of infants (70.7%) in Kapkatet County Hospital were introduced to complementary feeding before the recommended age of 6 months. Reasons for early introduction included concerns about the negative impact of exclusive breastfeeding on body shape and breast size, pressures from the mother-in-law, infant hunger, maternal responsibilities, slow weight gain in infants, breastfeeding-related pain, and cultural practices, such as the use of herbal remedies. The findings of this study highlight the need for targeted interventions to address the factors associated with early complementary feeding. To promote appropriate feeding practices, it is recommended to create mother-friendly work environments and implement information education and communication (IEC) strategies, coupled with behavioural change communication (BCC) approaches using mass media platforms. These measures will help raise awareness among breastfeeding mothers regarding the importance of adhering to recommended guidelines for complementary feeding.

For a long time, classical media for learning and teaching, such as textbooks and teacher-centred instruction, have been complemented by e-learning components and virtual campus systems. Smartphones and tablets have impressive functionality, and are becoming ubiquitous. There is an urgent need to create resources that will run on these platforms, so that educators are providing resources that run on the tools that students actually use. This paper illustrates how an extended media mix can broaden the scope of statistics and further education. Two complementary approaches are described. The first approach is tailor- made for desktop applications (repository containing interactive Java) whereas the second one is fully platform-independent (statistics app containing interactive learning objects based on HTLM5, CSS3 and JavaScript). The layout of the learning objects belonging to the statistics app is automatically adapted to the size of the viewing environment (responsive web design). The output of both approaches can be embedded in different educational settings, for example as a complement to face-to-face-lecturing or as a supplement to printed textbooks.

Continuous structural integrity monitoring (SIM) can be a valuable complementary tool to the current practice of periodic inspections in detecting damage in jacket platforms. This paper demonstrates the technical feasibility of adopting the recent advances in onshore SIM technology for offshore jacket platforms. Both the analysis method and hardware technology are investigated. To demonstrate the feasibility of the analysis method, a time series based damage detection and localization algorithm is evaluated. Nodal acceleration and brace strain responses from a jacket platform computer model are simulated and used to determine the Autoregressive (AR) model coefficients. Mahalanobis distance calculated from the first 10 AR coefficients is used as the damage feature (DF). The DF’s from three different damage cases comprising of missing member, dented member (stiffness reduction), and cracked member (nonlinear behavior), respectively, are compared with those from the healthy baseline case to detect and localize damage. To demonstrate the feasibility of hardware technology, a survey of the state-of-the-art in wireless sensor network technology is conducted. The survey shows that wireless accelerometers and strain gauges packaged for underwater use can be fitted in a wireless sensor network throughout the jacket using the electromagnetic communication approach. A conceptual configuration of underwater damage detection wireless sensor network for offshore jacket platforms is presented.

It is demonstrated that one of the conditions for successful scientific and pedagogical work is exchanging of methodical materials, including with using of augmented reality. We propose to classify approaches of placing methodical materials on closed, open and open-moderated types. One of the important benefits of a closed type is the high quality of the methodical material, but it’s limited by amount of material and the lack of exchange opportunities that are problems, and there are no open-moderated resources in the Ukrainian language. The aim of this article is to analyze approaches of systematization of methodical material with using of augmented reality and recommend using of STEMUA for systematization of them. It is shown that STEMUA allows teachers to develop methodical material and place it on this platform. The platform automatically organizes methodical material in the database. Consequently, the platform is satisfying the methodical needs of Ukrainian teachers for material with using of complementary reality in the teaching. It is recommended for teachers and methodists to provide development and methodical materials with using of augmented reality and add them to the platform database.

Lidmo, Johannes, Maja Brynteson und Ágúst Bogason. National Support Initiatives in Nordic Spatial Planning. Nordregio, März 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.6027/r2024:61403-2503.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
The Nordic countries share many cross-sectoral targets at the national level to meet ambitious environmental, social, sustainable and innovative development goals and standards. When it comes to spatial planning, central governments in the Nordic countries often have limited power to influence local-level priorities, particularly with respect to regulating land use and adopting a range of policies that impact sustainable urban development. In parallel, various new planning approaches, as well as a range of nationwide support mechanisms have emerged in the Nordic countries, often with the aim of supporting and steering municipalities’ efforts to achieve sustainable urban development. Our report aims to better understand such initiatives and how they are connected to spatial planning efforts in Nordic municipalities by examining one national support initiative in each Nordic country, illustrated with learnings from municipal case studies. We examined FutureBuilt in Norway, the Partnership for Vibrant City Centres in Denmark, the Borgarlína project in Iceland, the Sustainable City programme in Finland and Visions: in the North in Sweden. As shown by the findings from our case studies, different perspectives on external governance – such as state intervention versus municipal self-governance in Nordic countries – highlight challenges in influencing local urban development due to limited state mandates. National support initiatives emerge as an alternative means to guide local development. They may serve to foster collaboration and inclusivity, particularly when inspiring local, strategic spatial planning, as seen in the Swedish case study. National support initiatives are viewed as complementary tools to spatial planning that support sustainable urban development processes and projects. Though they take various forms, their purpose and impact should be understood within the overall context. Collaboration and lessons learned from national support initiatives have the potential to enhance legislation or state intervention. However, an imbalance in municipalities’ access to support poses a challenge in each Nordic country. It is therefore crucial to assess the appropriateness and purpose of support, recognising that municipal pathways are influenced by the way in which support is designed. Striking a balance with respect to state-municipal governance is essential. In short, we can draw the following recommendations: A partnership-based approach with collaboration between various stakeholders enhances inclusivity. New ways of working that are agile and flexible and focus on the local context should be emphasised for effective outcomes. The importance of long-term commitments and policy coherence in the field of sustainable urban development should be emphasised at both national and municipal levels. Efforts should be made to ensure continuity in sustainable urban development initiatives beyond the duration of the given programme. A more formal and institutionalised way of obtaining government funding for sustainable urban development projects at the local level should be developed in some countries. That could level the playing field for municipalities with varying resources, knowledge and lobbying capabilities. In other countries, capacity building – including training and resources – can be provided to help municipalities navigate support options and apply for them. It is beneficial to create platforms providing information about support for sustainable urban development and to make municipalities aware of upcoming calls well in advance.

Transport Network Companies (TNCs) have become a popular alternative for mobility due to their ability to provide on-demand flexible mobility services. By offering smartphone-based, ride-hailing services capable of satisfying specific travel needs, these modes have transformed urban mobility worldwide. However, to-date, few studies have examined the impacts in the Latin American context. This analysis is a critical first step in developing policies to promote efficient and sustainable transport systems in the Latin-American region. This research examines the factors affecting the adoption of on-demand ride services in Medellín, Colombia. It also explores whether these are substituting or competing with public transit. First, it provides a descriptive analysis in which we relate the usage of platform-based services with neighborhood characteristics, socioeconomic information of individuals and families, and trip-level details. Next, factors contributing to the election of platform-based services modeled using discrete choice models. The results show that wealthy and highly educated families with low vehicle availability are more likely to use TNCs compared to other groups in Medellín. Evidence also points at gender effects, with being female significantly increasing the probability of using a TNC service. Finally, we observe both transit complementary and substitution patterns of use, depending on the context and by whom the service is requested.

This program focused on citrus tristeza virus (CTV), the largest and one of the most complex RNA-plant-viruses. The economic importance of this virus to the US and Israeli citrus industries, its uniqueness among RNA viruses and the possibility to tame the virus and eventually turn it into a useful tool for the protection and genetic improvement of citrus trees justify these continued efforts. Although the overall goal of this project was to study the role(s) of CTV associated defective (d)-RNAs in CTV-induced diseases, considerable research efforts had to be devoted to the engineering of the helper virus which provides the machinery to allow dRNA replication. Considerable progress was made through three main lines of complementary studies. For the first time, the generation of an engineered CTV genetic system that is capable of infecting citrus plants with in vitro modified virus was achieved. Considering that this RNA virus consists of a 20 kb genome, much larger than any other previously developed similar genetic system, completing this goal was an extremely difficult task that was accomplished by the effective collaboration and complementarity of both partners. Other full-length genomic CTV isolates were sequenced and populations examined, resulting in a new level of understanding of population complexities and dynamics in the US and Israel. In addition, this project has now considerably advanced our understanding and ability to manipulate dRNAs, a new class of genetic elements of closteroviruses, which were first found in the Israeli VT isolate and later shown to be omnipresent in CTV populations. We have characterized additional natural dRNAs and have shown that production of subgenomic mRNAs can be involved in the generation of dRNAs. We have molecularly cloned natural dRNAs and directly inoculated citrus plants with 35S-cDNA constructs and have shown that specific dRNAs are correlated with specific disease symptoms. Systems to examine dRNA replication in protoplasts were developed and the requirements for dRNA replication were defined. Several artificial dRNAs that replicate efficiently with a helper virus were created from infectious full-genomic cDNAs. Elements that allow the specific replication of dRNAs by heterologous helper viruses also were defined. The T36-derived dRNAs were replicated efficiently by a range of different wild CTV isolates and hybrid dRNAs with heterologous termini are efficiently replicated with T36 as helper. In addition we found: 1) All CTV genes except of the p6 gene product from the conserved signature block of the Closteroviridae are obligate for assembly, infectivity, and serial protoplast passage; 2) The p20 protein is a major component of the amorphous inclusion bodies of infected cells; and 3) Novel 5'-Co-terminal RNAs in CTV infected cells were characterized. These results have considerably advanced our basic understanding of the molecular biology of CTV and CTV-dRNAs and form the platform for the future manipulation of this complicated virus. As a result of these developments, the way is now open to turn constructs of this viral plant pathogen into new tools for protecting citrus against severe CTV terms and development of virus-based expression vectors for other citrus improvement needs. In conclusion, this research program has accomplished two main interconnected missions, the collection of basic information on the molecular and biological characteristics of the virus and its associated dRNAs toward development of management strategies against severe diseases caused by the virus and building of novel research tools to improve citrus varieties. Reaching these goals will allow us to advance this project to a new phase of turning the virus from a pathogen to an ally.
