Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Sloan School of Management on May 7, 2004 in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degrees of Master of Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering and Master of Business Administration ABSTRACT Many computer companies are seeking to grow their customization capability. As the market becomes increasingly commoditized, computer companies view customization as a way to differentiate their products and offer customer value. However, the implementation of customization programs has been difficult for many organizations. Sun Microsystems launched a customization program called Customer Ready Systems (CRS) through a grass-roots effort in manufacturing. CRS offered assemble-to-order, factory-integrated systems. Although CRS revenues had been growing, scalability was difficult and costs were increasing. CRS needed to evaluate its process and supply-chain from a strategic perspective to ensure alignment with the rest of the organization. To grow profitably, it also needed to reduce costs and increase scalability. This thesis focuses first on the question of whether or not Sun should reconfigure its supply chain to perform more, if not all, of its customization work at external manufacturers. It then turns to the question of whether or not the current internal customization process can be improved, and identifies two opportunities: pricing and process improvement in component removal for reconfiguration, and lead-time variability reduction.
(cont.) This thesis recommends organizational and tactical policies to improve the customization based on these analyses and implementation efforts. The research for this thesis was conducted during a seven month internship with Sun Microsystems' Worldwide Operations group and was affiliated with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Leaders for Manufacturing program.

Global participation in space activity is growing as satellite technology matures and spreads. Countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America are creating or reinvigorating national satellite programs. These countries are building local capability in space through technological learning. They sometimes pursue this via collaborative satellite development projects with foreign firms that provide training. This phenomenon of collaborative satellite development projects is poorly understood by researchers of technological learning and technology transfer. The approach has potential to facilitate learning, but there are also challenges due to misaligned incentives and the tacit nature of the technology. Perspectives from literature on Technological Learning, Technology Transfer, Complex Product Systems and Product Delivery provide useful but incomplete insight for decision makers in such projects. This work seeks a deeper understanding of capability building through collaborative technology projects by conceiving of the projects as complex, socio-technical systems with architectures. The architecture of a system is the assignment of form to execute a function along a series of dimensions. The research questions explore the architecture of collaborative satellite projects, the nature of capability building during such projects, and the relationship between architecture and capability building. The research design uses inductive, exploratory case studies to investigate six collaborative satellite development projects. Data collection harnesses international field work driven by interviews, observation, and documents. The data analysis develops structured narratives, architectural comparison and capability building assessment. The architectural comparison reveals substantial variation in project implementation, especially in the areas of project initiation, technical specifications of the satellite, training approaches and the supplier selection process. The individual capability building assessment shows that most trainee engineers gradually progressed from no experience with satellites through theoretical training to supervised experience; a minority achieved independent experience. At the organizational level, the emerging space organizations achieved high levels of autonomy in project definition and satellite operation, but they were dependent on foreign firms for satellite design, manufacture, test and launch. The case studies can be summarized by three archetypal projects defined as "Politically Pushed," "Structured," and "Risk Taking." Countries in the case studies tended to start in a Politically Pushed mode, and then moved into either Structured or Risk Taking mode. Decision makers in emerging satellite programs can use the results of this dissertation to consider the broad set of architectural options for capability building. Future work will continue to probe how specific architectural decisions impact capability building outcomes in satellite projects and other technologies.

This dissertation consists of three essays examining the role of connectivity in the catch-up process of a nation primarily focusing on East Asian countries. Specifically, I investigate the sourcing of knowledge, especially tacit knowledge, on local innovation capability building and thus catch-up process of a nation. I argue that for any country, sourcing from the diverse pools of tacit knowledge available in different parts of the world is a crucial requirement in maintaining a robust innovation eco-system. This becomes much more important in the catch-up process of a less-developed or emerging economy that is attempting to build local innovation capability. In the first chapter, I lay the theoretical groundwork for the dissertation by reviewing how existing studies have contributed to our understanding of the catch-up process of an economy. Then, in the second chapter, I explore how the openness of an economy underpins contrasting economic outcomes by comparing the economies of South Korea and Brazil. The third chapter emphasizes that the connectivity to the global innovation system is equally important for a more advanced economy such as Japan. Lack of such connectivity could lead to systemic “lock-in” in the long term. This is done by investigating the national systems of innovation of Japan in four knowledge-intensive industries: automotive, electronics, robotics and pharmaceuticals. Using patent data, I demonstrate that compared to other advanced countries such as Germany and Denmark, the Japanese innovation system is quite closed. I speculate that closedness to global innovation systems could be one of the reasons for Japan’s prolonged economic recession and the underperformance of its once world leading firms. The fourth chapter proposes an alternative catch-up strategy by investigating the innovation catch-up processes in Korea and Taiwan. These two Asian economies achieved developed status in a remarkably short period of time. Surprisingly, I found that these two countries are not well-connected to the rest of the world when it comes to innovation networks. These two countries achieved innovation catch-up rapidly by focusing on specific technologies that inherently require less reliance on learning through co-inventor networks. These technologies are the so-called “short cycle” technologies, i.e., technologies where the time period between innovation and maturation is very short. Therefore, relatively advanced technologies can be obtained in an “off-the-shelf” manner through outright purchase, licensing, and other means that do not require in-house wholly-owned innovation systems.

Startups play a major role in establishing many new markets. This is theoretically puzzling because existing firms have more resources and relevant core and peripheral capabilities that should advantage them in diversifying into new markets. Here, we explore one mechanism that differentiates startups from existing firms: the stronger link between past performance and resources available for future capability building for startups than for existing firms. Using a simulation model, we show that this reinforcing loop leads entrepreneurial financial markets to quickly focus on more promising startups and, despite initial disadvantage, enable the most promising startups to overtake projects in well-endowed diversifying entrants. We analyze how different markets and technological opportunities can affect these dynamics.

Texto completoCette thèse vise à comprendre les processus de développement des capacités dans les premiers stades d'une entreprise. Empiriquement, la plupart des recherches ont porté sur des entreprises établies, ou bien ont cherché à expliquer la variance des capacités des entreprises à un moment donné. Théoriquement, malgré le passage à une vision plus dynamique et l'attention croissante à tirer parti des capacités externes, notre compréhension de la façon dont les entreprises parviennent à un changement dynamique ou l'interaction entre l'approvisionnement externe et interne des capacités est encore limitée. J'aborde ces écarts à l'aide de trois études interdépendantes. Le premier article adopte une étude de cas multiples conçue afin de développer une théorie sur l'introduction et le développement des capacités d'innovation dans les nouvelles entreprises. La documentation existante se concentre séparément sur des ressources internes ou l'utilisation de réseaux. En revanche, cette étude montre comment les jeunes entreprises combinent la mise en place interne et l'usage de stratégies externes afin de faciliter le développement rapide des capacités dans les premiers stades. À partir de données sur des entreprises de biotechnologie de la région de Montréal, les résultats révèlent des implications différentes sur le parcours suivi et le rythme de développement des capacités, et le rôle de la collaboration dans les entreprises avec différents parcours internes de mise en place. Le deuxième article se concentre sur la façon dont la collaboration contribue à l'édification des capacités internes dans de nouvelles entreprises. Les effets des capacités de s'engager dans la collaboration demeurent confus lorsqu'on examine la documentation sur le sujet. En utilisant des données sur des scénarios de collaboration à partir d'entreprises de biotechnologie montréalaises, l'étude révèle quatre mécanismes de mise en place des connaissances dans les entreprises visées par cette étude. Chaque mécanisme implique des connaissances différentes ajoutées à l'entreprise, et exige différents processus d'interaction avec ses partenaires. Cette étude améliore la compréhension des effets de réseau en ce qui concerne le développement des capacités. Le troisième article élabore un cadre de développement des capacités organisationnelles qui intègre l'esprit d'entreprise et des habitudes organisationnelles. Elle traite d'un débat toujours en cours sur le défi que représente l'équilibre entre l'efficacité et la flexibilité dans les organisations. En étudiant le cas d'une entreprise chinoise d'équipements de télécommunication, il met en lumière la dynamique des connaissances entre les activités entrepreneuriales et les habitudes, le rôle de l'entrepreneuriat à la fois sur les interfaces externes et internes de l'organisation et les changements exogènes et endogènes dans les pratiques habituelles. Ce cadre fait progresser la perspective dynamique de la recherche des capacités. Dans l'ensemble, cette thèse contribue au processus de théories sur le développement des capacités dynamique. Il génère des informations nouvelles sur la capacité d'initiation, de prolongement et de changement dans les organisations.

Texto completoSyftet med arbetet är att få en förståelse för moss-sedumtakets bullerdämpande egenskaper. Jag kommer även att försöka förutsäga med hjälp av akustikteori vilken utav de två olika uppbyggnadssystemen av moss-sedumtak som ger den bästa bullerdämpande effekten.
Mätningarna kommer att bestå i att registrera ljudtrycksnivån i rummet, vid varje oktavband i frekvensområdet 125-4000 Hz. Först utan moss-sedummattan och sedan med moss-sedum mattan. Storleken på differensen i ljudnivån ger en bild av i vilket frekvensområde som ljudabsorptionen är effektivast. För att ytterliggare öka förståelsen för hur moss-sedum absorberar ljud så kommer även absorptionsfaktorn att beräknas. Utifrån resultaten kan man se en tydlig bild på hur xeroflor moss-sedum mattan absorberar i frekvenserna 125-4000 Hz. Den har sin bästa absorption i området 500-4000 Hz och i detta område så är det runt 1000 Hz som den absorberar effektivast.
Om vi tittar på de två olika systemen som Veg Tech använder för att bygga upp ett sedumtak på så sker dämpningen i XMS 0-4 med hjälp av luftspalten och i system XMS 2-27 i VT-filten. Men i detta fall så är luftspalten endast 25 mm så en märkbar ökad dämpning är svårt att föreställa sig. VT-filten som används i XMS 2-27 har öppna celler och kan liknas vid mineralull, som är en bra absorbent. Min slutsats är att 10 mm VT-filt ger bättre dämpning än en luftspalt på 25 mm.

This thesis describes extensions made to the Reality Editor system to improve its ability to browse augmented reality content and to customize the flow of data between Internet of Things objects. The augmented reality browsing is improved by a platform shift to web technologies, while the data customization is provided by the design of logical operators that can be added to a network of objects. The contribution lies in the implementation of a novel grid-constrained, data flow visual programming language called Logic Crafting, which provides a modularized and extensible environment for manipulating the data passed between loT objects. Associated contributions involve web service modules that allow non-developers to connect loT objects with arbitrary remote services, and an implemented mechanism for changing the permissions model for loT objects on a per-resource level. The thesis then presents a number of prototypes enabled by using web technologies for augmented reality, as well as demonstrative use cases for programming loT objects with Logic Crafting. Finally, the thesis reflects on the implication of these features and prototypes on the subject of augmented multiuser environments.

Texto completoENGLISH ABSTRACT: The study represents an analysis of the role of civil society organisations/non‐governmental organisations (CSOs/NGOs) in building human capabilities through knowledge construction. It assesses the effectiveness of community publishing in building human capabilities under challenges they face in the environment they are operating in. The complex environment CSOs/NGOs are operating in is dealt with. It will be demonstrated that CSOs/NGOs give marginalised communities, especially women, children and the disabled, a platform where they can organise themselves and give them an opportunity to influence policy and development of their community. Community development has many interpretations. This study focuses on communities as central agents responsible for their own development. When communities participate in their own development, they are engaging in an educational process which is both formal and informal in nature. The education process helps them to understand their situations better. This type of education called ‘popular education’, is based on the belief that people involved in the process have important knowledge that they have acquired from their experiences in life and the education they receive mainly consists of dialogue between different knowledge sets that they possess. In the process, when people participate actively in the development of their communities, a sense of ownership is developed. For the purpose of designing the study, observation of the direct involvement of staff from local government, Africa Community Publishing Development Trust and partner organisations as well as working with communities from Shamva, Umzingwane and Buhera provided the basis. It is noted that party politics affects the development of a CSO/NGO sector that is capable of building human capabilities. It is, therefore, clear that government should create an enabling environment that is free from violence and rule of law should be respected as this helps CSOs/ NGOs to implement capability building programmes conducive for all communities to participate in the development of their areas.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die studie ontleed die rol van burgerlike organisasies/nie‐regeringsorganisasies (BOs/NRO's) in die bou van menslike vermoëns deur middel van kennis konstruksie. Die studie beoordeel die effektiwiteit van die gemeenskap uitgewery in die bou van die menslike vermoëns en die uitdagings wat hulle in die gesig staar in die omgewing waar hulle hul bevind. Die komplekse omgewing waarin BOs / NRO’s hul bevind word inmiddels behandel. BOs/NRO's gee gemarginaliseerde gemeenskappe veral vroue, kinders en gestremdes 'n platform waar hulle hul self kan organiseer en gee hulle ' n geleentheid om beleid te beïnvloed en hul gemeenskap te ontwikkel. Ontwikkeling van die gemeenskap het baie interpretasies. Die studie fokus op die gemeenskappe as sentrale agente wat verantwoordelik is vir hul eie ontwikkeling. Wanneer gemeenskappe betrokke is in hul eie ontwikkelings proses, neem hulled deel aan ’ n opvoedkundige proses wat van nature beide formeel en informeel is. Die opvoedkundige proses help hulle om hul situasies beter te verstaan. Hierdie tipe van Onderwys genaamd "gewilde onderwys", is gebaseer op die oortuiging dat mense wat betrokke is in ‘n proses belangrike kennis besit as gevolg van persoonlike lewenservaringe, die opvoeding wat hulle ontvang bestaan hoofsaaklik uit dialoog tussen die verskillende kennis stel dat hulle besit. Wanneer mense aktief deelneem in die ontwikkeling van hul gemeenskappe, word 'n gevoel van eienaarskap ontwikkel. In terme van die ontwikkeling van die studie het die direkte betrokkenheid van die personeel van plaaslike regering, ACPDT en vennoot organisasies asook die werk met die gemeenskappe van Shamva, Umzingwane en Buhera die basis gevorm van die studie. Politieke partye beinvloed die ontwikkeling van die BO/NRO‐sektor en dit stel hulle in staat om menslike vermoëns op te bou. Die regering moet 'n instaatstellende omgewing skep wat vry is van geweld en waar die oppergesag van die reg gerespekteer word. Dit sal BO’s/NRO's help om vermoëns bouende programme te implementeer wat gemeenskappe die geleentheid sal gee om deel te hê aan die ontwikkeling van hul gemeenskap.

Texto completoDuring the 90s, Brazilian market open to imported goods sets the beginning of food industry transformation in Brazil. Other factors led to competitiveness growth among food companies, such as: the development of new technology, and consumers knowledge and expectation level increase. Therefore, food companies were forced to seek for competitive advantage which allowed the differentiation of their products in the market. In this context, product development process (PDP) gains fundamental importance. Due to the importance of PDP in the food industry, this work seeks characterize the food product development process management. Besides, this work aims to characterize the capability to PDP. In order to reach these purposes, eight food companies and three organizations (ITAL, SENAI, and a consultant company) that backup food industry were studied. Three food companies were chosen out of the eight which were studied and were presented in this work. The chosen companies have a more structured PDP, which allows a discussion on capability building process. The findings showed that food companies follow a sequence of phases and activities during PDP. This sequence is very similar when food companies are compared with each other and with the theoretical background. Concerning capability, food companies see capability building restrict to courses, and to market fairs visiting. The organizations that backup food industry serve mainly small companies, which do not have either enough technical or managerial knowledge in order to develop a product. Therefore, we consider that food product development process management is based on technical aspects. However, a minimal of managerial structure has been started by the companies. Besides, the need to develop new products tends to make food companies put in resources to build capability.
Na década de 90, a abertura do mercado brasileiro à importação marca o início da reestruturação da indústria brasileira de alimentos. Outros acontecimentos também contribuíram para o crescimento da concorrência entre as empresas de alimentos, como o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias e o aumento do nível de conhecimento e de expectativas dos consumidores. Portanto, as empresas foram obrigadas a buscar vantagens competitivas que possibilitassem a diferenciação de seus produtos no mercado. Nesse contexto, o processo de desenvolvimento de produto (PDP) passou a ter fundamental importância. Considerando a importância do PDP na indústria de alimentos, este trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar a gestão do processo de desenvolvimento de produto em empresas da indústria de alimentos. Além disso, este trabalho visa caracterizar a capacitação para o PDP. Para que os objetivos fossem alcançados, foram realizados estudos de caso em oito empresas alimentícias e em três instituições (ITAL, SENAI e uma empresa de consultoria) de apoio à indústria de alimentos. Das oito empresas pesquisadas, foram selecionadas três para apresentação e análise dos resultados. As empresas selecionadas possuem o PDP mais bem estruturado, possibilitando uma discussão acerca da capacitação para esse processo. Como resultado, foi constatado, que as empresas de alimentos seguem uma seqüência de fases e atividades no PDP. Essa seqüência é bastante similar tanto na comparação entre empresas, quanto na comparação com a literatura. Quanto à capacitação, as empresas de alimentos vêem a construção da capacitação para o PDP limitada a cursos e treinamentos, e a visitas a feiras. As instituições de apoio prestam serviços principalmente a pequenas empresas, que não possuem conhecimento técnico e gerencial necessário ao desenvolvimento de produto. Conclui-se que a gestão do PDP alimentício é muito baseada no aspecto técnico. Porém, um mínimo de estruturação para gestão já foi iniciado pelas empresas. Além disso, a necessidade de desenvolver novos produtos tende a fazer com que as empresas de alimentos aloquem recursos para a construção da capacitação.

Therefore, only those who can sense the change of customer’s appetite can survive in this ever-competing environment. World keeps moving forward, many store owners in the bakery industry try very hard to enhance their core competitiveness and dynamic capability and try to position themselves in the right business operation status. The change in social structure and diet habit, the continuous economic slump and rise in unemployment rate have made the consumption in a dropping trend. How the store owners in the bakery industry can distinguish themselves from other competitors and enhance their product competitiveness, avoid price war and stand out in the environment of severe price war is really a very important topic for the bakery industry to think about. How to building dynamic capability through organization learning for the bakery industry is going to be a main topic in this study, meanwhile, organization learning in a case-study company is going to be used for investigation and analysis. This study is a qualitative study and case study method is going to be adopted. Data analysis contains text script and related sub-data, then, after referring to related literatures, we have developed three main architectures, namely, experience accumulation, knowledge articulation and knowledge codification.

Innovative products, successful marketing, and well established brands are important sources to a firm’s profitability. These three sources of profitability are becoming more and more critical in today’s business environment where lifecycles of products are short and competition among firms is fierce. Although the three facets of profitability have been studied individually, investigation of their relationship could better understand what capabilities are needed for these three sources of profitability and how they relate to each other. With the examples of Xerox and Polaroid, whose brands have become the representatives of their products, and the review of related literature, this research develops four theoretical propositions which inter-relate the three facets. The theoretical framework implies that a firm’s strategic capabilities, knowledge capabilities, and managerial systems collectively influence the development of its product innovation and marketing capabilities. Further, the interactively developed and synchronized product innovation and marketing capabilities contribute to brand-building capabilities. The case study research method was adopted for this research. Electronic firms, who are in the process of building brands or have succeeded or failed in building brands, were chosen for case studies. These case studies were used to empirically test the theoretical propositions. The empirical results show that the proposed framework is theoretically sound. Adequate integration of marketing capabilities with innovation capabilities is helpful to brand-building. The theoretical model should help innovative firms in building their brands.
