Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) aims to achieve societally desirable outcomes and marketable products of innovative processes. In recent years RRI has become a key factor in national and international Research and Innovation (R&I) policy and funding. As a consequence, actors involved in R&I are required to implement it. However, while on a conceptual and theoretical level RRI has been discussed in depth, on a practical and empirical level it remains largely underdeveloped. To contribute to the bridging of this gap between policy/theory and practice, this research assesses how RRI can be conceptualised and implemented in research projects in a way that allows it to reach its objectives. To attain an in-depth understanding of the implementation of RRI, a qualitative research strategy is deployed using a case study approach. As cases, three research projects are selected from the Netherlands Responsible Innovation (MVI) programme, which is the first programme to fund dedicated RRI projects. Analysis within and across the cases is supported by an analytical model based on a relational conceptualisation of responsibility. The model enables describing and analysing how the overarching aims and requirements of RRI translate into responsibilities taken and ascribed by R&I actors involved in projects. Building on an in-depth review of eight accounts of RRI and deploying the analytical model, this research provides a better understanding of the relationships between RRI and the targeted R&I, RRI and further instances of RRI beyond it, and RRI and its academic context. Furthermore, it identifies a number of key components that affect the outcomes of RRI, namely: the status of researchers implementing RRI as societal stakeholders, the role of interdisciplinary collaboration as a strategic means to defend (societal) interests, and the role of authorities such as funders in incentivising and sanctioning RRI. Lastly, the research reflects novel barriers and enablers that are relevant to implementing RRI. On the one hand, meeting the aims of RRI may be problematic due to academic and societal aims of researchers being in tension with each other, and to the manner, researchers defend their societal interests, which also may negatively influence the implementation of RRI. On the other hand, consideration of the R&I stage in projecting an impact and involving R&I actors, as well as making RRI rewarding to researchers throughout academic careers enables effective implementation of RRI. Based on the insights gained, recommendations are made for policymakers, funding bodies and researchers concerning the current lack of alignment between societal and academic interests when implementing RRI, capacitating and motivating actors to implement RRI, and ensuring alignment of RRI activities over time.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This working paper dwells on the relationship between a dialogue-oriented mode of knowledge production in line with transdisciplinarity and the flourishing of a culture of socioeconomic democratisation. These scientific and cultural-political undertakings have in common an effort of bridge-building between fragmented entities, be it scientific disciplines and their mono-logical explanations or single-issue policies which foster micro-efficiency to the detriment of social cohesion and socio-economic effectiveness. The paper starts by presenting emblematically some typical problematics of social innovations which need experience-based knowledge of practitioners as well the structure-aware knowledge of scientific research. In the second section transdisciplinary research is proposed as a research programme focussing on socially relevant problems and a structured dialogue with practitioners. Transdisciplinarity is based on a two-fold-dialogue: First, it is an interdisciplinary dialogue between different disciplines which overcome their respective research programmes and paradigms and contribute their knowledge to joint-problem solving. Second, it is a dialogue of two forms of knowledge: experience-based and analyticalstructural knowledge. In the final section, the potential of this type of research is shown to address the problematics of social innovation as a research programme as well as a socially-transformative practice.Series: SRE - Discussion Papers

The main objective of this research is to disentangle the factors that promote or are positively related to radical innovation and its success. To this end, four studies have been proposed, which suggest various facilitators of radical innovation: altruistic and stewardship leader behavior, organic organisational structure, end-user computing satisfaction, organisational learning capability (OLC), and generative learning. Through structural equation models, the effect of these factors on radical innovation was empirically analysed, using a sample of Spanish companies characterised by their excellent management of human resources. The results obtained in each empirical study confirm all the hypotheses proposed.El objetivo principal de esta investigación ha sido conocer los factores que promueven o se relacionan positivamente con la innovación radical y su éxito. Para ello se han planteado cuatro estudios que proponen diversos facilitadores de la innovación radical: el comportamiento altruista y el comportamiento responsable de los líderes, la estructura organizativa orgánica, los sistemas de información, la capacidad de aprendizaje organizativo y el aprendizaje generativo. A través de modelos de ecuaciones estructurales, se ha analizado empíricamente el efecto de estos factores en la innovación radical, utilizando una muestra de empresas españolas caracterizada por la excelente gestión que realizan de los recursos humanos. Los resultados obtenidos en cada una de las investigaciones empíricas confirman todas las hipótesis planteadas.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Reforms to the national research and research training system by the Commonwealth Government of Australia sought to effectively connect research conducted in universities to Australia's national innovation system. Research training has a key role in ensuring an adequate supply of highly skilled people for the national innovation system. During their studies, research students produce and disseminate a massive amount of new knowledge. Prior to this study, there was no research that examined the contribution of research training to Australia's national innovation system despite the existence of policy initiatives aiming to enhance this contribution. Given Australia's below average (but improving) innovation performance compared to other OECD countries, the inclusion of Finland and the United States provided further insights into the key research question. This study examined three obvious ways that research training contributes to the national innovation systems in the three countries: the international mobility and migration of research students and graduates, knowledge production and distribution by research students, and the impact of research training as advanced human capital formation on economic growth. Findings have informed the concept of a research training culture of innovation that aims to enhance the contribution of research training to Australia's national innovation system. Key features include internationally competitive research and research training environments; research training programs that equip students with economically-relevant knowledge and the capabilities required by employers operating in knowledge-based economies; attractive research careers in different sectors; a national commitment to R&D as indicated by high levels of gross and business R&D expenditure; high private and social rates of return from research training; and the horizontal coordination of key organisations that create policy for, and/or invest in research training.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Further, these quantitative findings lend statistically and practically significant support for (1) the antecedent roles of marketing insight and marketing imagination, (2) the negative (as predicted) moderating role of product innovation radicalness, and (3) several specific inter-workings among the marketing-innovation spaces that that offer substantial research contributions to the marketing strategy literature for researchers and managers.; This research conceptualizes and develops a scale for the marketing innovation construct for the purpose of furthering research in marketing strategy. This marketing innovation construct and its associated strategic activities are clearly distinguished from product and process innovation, better enabling researchers and practitioners to identify new and updated paths from innovation to firm performance. Marketing innovation is defined as the degree of novelty in the implementation of three core business processes: (1) product development management, (2) supply chain management, and (3) customer relationship management, as identified in the Srivastava, Shervani & Fahey (1999) framework. Results from qualitative interviews indicate marketing innovation is developed and fostered by marketing insight and marketing imagination, and these relationships appear to be moderated by the market orientation of the firm. As conceptualized, marketing innovation is suggested to enhance firm performance via (1) the marketing-product space, (2) the marketing-process space, and (3) the marketing-relationship space. This enhancement process, however, is conjectured to be moderated by the degree of radical product innovation the firm is currently undergoing as well as the degree of process innovation the firm practices. A complete discussion of marketing innovation's antecedents, manifestations, and consequences is presented. A comprehensive research model, method, and results from an empirical study of qualified business executives, testing key relationships in the marketing innovation framework, are discussed. Empirical study results confirm marketing innovation's powerful ability to predict firm performance, even in the presence of a multiple of control variables.ID: 030422788; System requirements: World Wide Web browser and PDF reader.; Mode of access: World Wide Web.; Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Central Florida, 2011.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 164-169).

This dissertation study focuses on reasons and means of industry and university
collaboration which lead to innovation. Collaboration in this study is viewed as one:
communication, exchange of knowledge and learning form the innovation process. This
research has followed a qualitative approach for methodology and the data was collected
through two interviews. The results of this study show how university research
collaborates with industry from the university research point of view. The findings also
reveal that university research can not produce innovation without practical knowledge
which is provided by company during collaboration. In the same way the company can
not produce scientifically based innovation without the interactive learning.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis contains three research papers related to innovation. Chapter 1 examines the effect of research and development (R&D) on bankruptcy. I propose that R&D investment creates uncertainty, leading to a higher volatility of firm value and greater information asymmetry between insiders (especially senior executives) and outsiders (such as investors). Both higher firm-value volatility and higher information asymmetry can increase the risk of bankruptcy for firms. Using a large panel of United States (US) companies from 1979-2009, I find that consistent with my prediction, firms engaging in high levels of R&D are more likely to go bankrupt. Further, I explore the mechanism by which R&D influences corporate bankruptcy. Empirical evidence supports both of the firm-value volatility and asymmetric information channels. Chapter 2 studies the influence of the business cycle on the interactions between R&D and bankruptcy. I find that the effect of R&D on bankruptcy increased during economic downturns. With stringent financial constraints during downturns, R&D intensive firms are more likely to be affected than during economic expansions. I further find that firms are reluctant to decrease their R&D spending during recessionary periods and that firms taking a more aggressive posture in increasing R&D during downturns enjoy stronger sustained operating performance. Overall, results show that R&D is more risky in recessions than in booms. Chapter 3 examines mergers and acquisition (M&A) transactions between firms with patent citation links and shows such transactions generate better merger performance than acquisitions of firms without citation links. Specifically, I find that acquirers’ announcement returns are positively related to citation links between the acquirer and target firms. I suggest that citation links might mitigate two possible concerns that investors could have: (1) the acquirer might overbid for the target firm due to the “winner’s curse” problem, or (2) there would be failure at the post-merger integration process. My results are consistent with the hypothesis that citations links are related to high quality transactions, but I do not find evidence supporting the hypothesis that citations help acquirers avoid overpaying for target firms.

Thesis (MScEng (Industrial Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The evolution of the university’s role in national innovation systems has lately received increasing attention in international academic circles, with emphasis on its role in stimulating and sustaining national and regional economic growth. Universities in leading economies have adopted economic development as a third mission, along with the traditional objectives of teaching and research, directly leading to the inception of a technology transfer facilitator as an institutional unit. Translating this mission shift into the context of the Innovation Life Cycle, it seems that universities are involved in a larger part of the innovation process, rather than simply supplying inputs for the innovation funnel of industry. The subsequent need to gain maximum value from research has led innovation management practitioners to consider ways in which the innovation capability of universities can be improved. Several approaches have been documented to improve the performance of a university’s technology transfer office as an isolated entity. Most of these studies, however, have neglected to consider the technology transfer office in the context of the organisation-wide innovation process. The aim of this research is therefore to evaluate the innovation capability of a research institution to enable the improvement of their research commercialisation system. As a foundation the state of research commercialisation, innovation, and the relationship between the two are investigated. This process resulted in the validation that research commercialisation can be modelled by utilising an innovation model. The Innovation Capability Maturity Model version 2 (ICMMv2) of Essmann (1) is subsequently investigated with the aim of applying the model. This in turn leads to the application of the Innovation Capability Improvement Methodology accompanying the ICMMv2 in case study format on Stellenbosch University. The results obtained from the case study are presented in terms of the strengths and weaknesses of the innovation capability of the University. The results were found to be an accurate description of the current issues in the commercialisation system at Stellenbosch University. The latter was validated by individuals tasked with the execution of the research commercialisation process at the University. This, in turn, validates the use of the Innovation Capability Maturity Model for the identification of any aspects that need improvement in order to streamline a university’s research commercialisation efforts.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die evolusie van die universiteit se rol in nasionale innovasie stelsels kry toenemend aandag in internasionale akademiese kringe. Dit beklemtoon universiteite se rol in die stimulering en handhawing van nasionale en plaaslike ekonomiese groei. Universiteite in voorste ekonomieë het ekonomiese ontwikkeling aangeneem as 'n derde missie, saam met die tradisionele missies van onderrig en navorsing. Dit het direk gelei tot die inlywing van ‘n tegnologie-oordrag fasiliteerder as 'n institusionele eenheid. Die verskuiwing van missie in die konteks van die Innovasie lewensiklus, dui daarop dat universiteite betrokke raak in 'n groter deel van die innovasie proses, eerder as om net die verskaffer van insette vir die innovasie tregter van die industrie te wees. Die daaropvolgende vereiste om maksimum waarde te verkry uit navorsing, het veroorsaak dat innovasie bestuur praktisyns verskeie maniere ondersoek waarop die innovasie vermoë van universiteite verbeter kan word. Verskeie benaderings om die prestasie van 'n universiteit se tegnologie-oordrag eenheid as 'n geïsoleerde entiteit te verbeter, is gedokumenteer. Die meeste van hierdie studies het egter nagelaat om die tegnologie-oordrag eenheid te oorweeg in die konteks van die organisasie-wye innovasie proses. Die doel van hierdie navorsing is dus om die innovasie vermoë van 'n navorsingsinrigting te evalueer om die verbetering van hul navorsing kommersialisering stelsel moontlik te maak. As 'n basis word die stand van navorsing kommersialisering, innovasie en die verhouding tussen die twee ondersoek. Hierdie proses het gelei tot die validasie dat navorsing kommersialisering gemodelleer kan word deur middel van 'n innovasie model. Daarna is die Innovation Capability Maturity Model weergawe 2 (ICMMv2) van Essmann(1) ondersoek om ten einde die model toe te pas. Dit word gevolg deur die uitvoering van die Innovation Capability Improvement metodologie, as deel van die ICMMv2, op die Universiteit van Stellenbosch, in ‘n gevallestudie-formaat. Die resultate wat verkry is uit die gevallestudie word in terme van sterk en swak punte met betrekking tot die innovasie vermoë van die Universiteit bespreek. Die resultate is bevind om 'n akkurate beskrywing van die huidige kwessies in die kommersialiseringstelsel by die Universiteit van Stellenbosch te wees. Dit is dan ook bevestig deur sekere individue gemoeid met die uitvoering van die navorsing kommersialiseringproses by die Universiteit. Dit op sy beurt, bekragtig die gebruik van die ICMMv2 vir die identifisering van die aspekte wat verbeter moet word om 'n universiteit se navorsing kommersialiseringpoging vaartbelyn te maak.

The Army-sponsored Institute for Soldier Nanotechnologies (ISN) was an entrepreneurial research institute established at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2002. Using Science and Technology Studies (STS) concepts from Actor-Network Theory, I study the founding era of this twenty-first century laboratory-based community, from 2002-2007. Actor-Network concepts of enrollment and translation, described by Bruno Latour, and heterogeneous engineering, described by John Law, are used as I 'follow the actors' founding this emergent institution. The operationalization of translation is traced through four case studies, structured around Defense funding constructs and Science and Technology communities: 6.0 Founding the Institute; 6.1 Building Basic Research Networks; 6.2 Shaping Applied Research for Cancer Research and Science Education to include non-users; and 6.3 Student Prototyping Teams Accelerating ISN Research for Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). Scientists, engineers, and transitioners partnered in new ways to transition innovative technologies to improve human protection, with soldiers as the first of many users. Using public information, I used qualitative and quantitative methodologies to assess the actor networks and research portfolio changes. These historical case studies extend STS with operationalization of translation and a new dynamic of bi-directional actor enrollment, as research teams transitioned nanotechnologies and prototypes.Doctor of Philosophy

I begin chapter I with an examination of the effect of broadband on quantitative and qualitative aspects of research. This paper investigates whether access to the Internet is positively correlated with journal articles. I employ data sets from the world bank for 190 countries from 2000 to 2018 and run two types of regressions: Poisson and Negative Binomial. Our results indicate that broadband facilitates to write more journal articles and get more citations. My second chapter concerns access to broadband, fixed telephone, and mobile cellular is expected to have a positive impact on innovations. This paper investigates whether or not access to the Internet and telephone is positively correlated with innovation. We employ data sets from the world bank for 190 countries from 2000 to 2018 and run two types of regressions: OLS and fixed effect. Within each method, we examine how the income-level of the countries affects the answer. Our results indicate that broadband, telephone, and mobile cellular facilitates innovation. We explore two possible explanations for this: i) there are increasing marginal benefits of broadband deployment, ii) broadband creates a positive externality that indirectly enhances innovation. The conclusion is robust to various income level countries. In the third chapter, I examine how a connection to the internet and telephone affect labor market outcomes. We employ datasets from the world bank for 190 countries from 2000 to 2018 and employ three types of regressions: OLS, fixed effect estimator, and non-linear model. Within each method, we examine how the income status, gender, education level affects the answer.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
L'innovation est aujourd'hui l'une des variables essentielles de la croissance économique et de l'emploi. Toutefois, son financement est complexe. Ce qui justifie l'intervention des pouvoirs publics. Ainsi en France, la puissance publique dispose de deux outils principaux pour inciter les entreprises à augmenter leurs dépenses de R&D, les aides directes et apparentées et les incitations fiscales. Toutefois, c'est une mesure d'aide fiscale, le crédit d'impôt recherche (CIR), qui constitue le dispositif majeur de soutien à l'innovation en France. Puissant instrument d'encouragement à la R&D depuis 1983, il est devenu depuis sa dernière grande réforme, en 2008, le dispositif incitatif le plus prisé des entreprises et la deuxième dépense de l'État. Une sortie de l'anonymat suivie d'une entrée dans la polémique car en raison de son poids de plus en plus prégnant dans l'économie française, le CIR soulève plusieurs interrogations. La plus partagée concerne naturellement la réalité de son efficacité, opposant partisans et détracteurs de la mesure. Mais celle-ci appelle pourtant d'autres questions et d'autres observations. Car s'il semble partagé que ce crédit présente de nombreux avantages pour ses bénéficiaires, la sécurité fiscale de ceux-là apparaît néanmoins fragile. Puis, le choix même de la dépense fiscale comme mesure de soutien interpelle, tant s'agissant de son opportunité réelle dans l'ordre interne que de son articulation avec la réglementation européenne des aides d'État. Ce qui pourrait justifier une adaptation du mécanisme à partir des modalités d'un autre dispositif opérant dans un autre secteur et ne souffrant pas à ce jour des mêmes carences que le CIRToday, innovation is one of the essential variables of the growth of the economy and employment. However, its financing is complex. This justifies the intervention of public authorities. In France, the public powers therefore have two main tools for encouraging companies to increase their R&D expenses, direct aids (and similar) and tax incentives. However, the main mechanism in support of innovation in France is a fiscal aid measure, namely the research tax credit. A powerful instrument for encouraging R&D since 1983, it has become, since its last major reform in 2008, the preferred incentive measure of companies and, at the same time, the State's second leading expenditure. A departure from anonymity followed by a step into controversy, since due to its increasing weight within the French economy, the research tax credit is prompting many questions. The most widely-shared question naturally relates to the reality of its efficiency, with supporters and detractors in equal measure. But this mechanism also elicits other questions and other observations. Since while it seems to be agreed that this credit offers many advantages for its beneficiaries, the fiscal security of the latter nevertheless appears to be fragile. Moreover, the very choice of a fiscal expenditure as a support measure is of concern, both with regard to its actual advisability within the internal order and in terms of its linkage with the European regulations relative to State aid. This could justify an adaptation of the mechanism on the basis of the provisions of another system used in another sector, but that does not currently have the same deficiencies as the research tax credit

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The need for change and improvement in the construction sector has been well documented. The recent economic downturn, greater levels of competition, increasing product complexity, regulatory requirements and tougher environmental targets are all examples of current challenges that continue to add weight to this requirement and accelerate the pace in which the sector must respond. It is widely agreed that it is through innovation, which can be defined as the successful exploitation of an idea, that construction firms will be able to create and exploit solutions in response to many of these challenges. In response, more and more construction firms are seeking ways to manage innovation in a more strategic and conscientious manner. However, there is little practical guidance for construction professionals on how this can be achieved and progress towards the optimisation of intra-organisational innovation in construction is widely considered to have been slow. Progress has been hindered by a lack of research and understanding of innovation in the construction context. There is an urgent need to address this and equip construction firms with practical and effective approaches for improved innovation management. This thesis presents an action research project that has developed and tested two interventions aimed at improving the management of innovation at the intra-organisational level within a major construction, engineering and associated services firm. The first intervention comprised of a stage-gate idea management process, a support network of innovation champions and a web-based tool for capturing, storing and reporting on ideas, with the purpose of providing a new platform for innovation outside the normal scope and boundaries of a single project. The second intervention included an online resource that provided tools and guidance for innovation with the purpose of promoting and providing practical support for those seeking to facilitate innovation in their projects or teams. Evaluation of the first intervention has revealed a number of important results, including the improved performance of budgets for innovation, increased employee satisfaction with levels of support for innovation, improvement in self-reported innovation performance and an increased portfolio of innovation projects. Usability testing of the second intervention suggests that it is a valuable tool that encourages and supports innovation at the project level. The thesis concludes by outlining a number of recommendations for consideration by the industry, along with suggestions for future research.

Scholars in science and technology studies have long been concerned with a variety of issues revolving around technological change, such as explaining the origins of technological innovation and arguing for or against technological determinism. This thesis reviews a number of theoretical models developed by historians, philosophers, sociologists, and other scholars to explain technological change. A case study of technological innovations in industnal forestry and timber harvesting practices provides a basis for a critique of these previously proposed models and for an argument for a new model. This model, an ecological model, suggests homeostatic pressures play a major role in the innovative processes within any technological system.Master of Science

This study was aimed at achieving an understanding of the role of knowledge and commitment in the process of innovation. To do that, the study confronted several intractable problems of innovation research that have created barriers to knowledge accumulation. Theoretical models were developed based on organizational knowledge and commitments and aimed at overcoming the shortcomings of the traditional research models. Theoretical models of organizational change were investigated through multiple case studies of innovation projects that compared organizations of different types and size, and change processes of both technological and administrative character. A conclusion from this research is that innovation research should learn to live with the dialectic that innovation is unrelated to knowledge or outcomes. This would help to focus research attention on the means by which knowledge is transformed into action, the central problem of the management of innovation.Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Blakey, Jennifer D. "The Impact of Workspace on Innovation". Thesis, Brandman University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3702901.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose. The purpose of the mixed methods study was to identify and describe the extent to which individual or team workspace contributes to innovation in an organizational setting as perceived by knowledge workers in California. In addition, the purpose was to identify stimulators and barriers in the physical workspace on innovation. A literature review revealed the importance of creativity and innovation in organizations. Gaps in the literature between workspace and innovation were examined and perspectives on the combination of workspace design and innovation were assessed.
Methodology. This mixed-method research design combined two methods, surveys and interviews, in a sequential manner. First, the quantitative component (surveys) was administered via a 53- question online survey. The results of the quantitative survey guided the qualitative interviews by prioritizing data and themes. The population for the study included full-time knowledge workers in California.
Findings: Respondents identified core dimensions within the Situational Outlook Questionnaire that led to innovation and creativity in the workspace environment. To further expand respondents acknowledged individual and team workspace factors that led to more innovative outcomes. Within the individual workspace technology surfaced as a primary driver of innovation. When asked about team workspace respondents were more constructive indicating concern over noise and interruptions. Additionally, the study asked about stimulators and barriers to innovation within the workspace. Stimulators included placement of staff within close proximity to key team members, design that encourages trust, and inspiring décor that awakens creativity. Lastly, barriers to innovation in the workspace included status quo mentality, decreasing square footage from individual workspace, and concerns with open space design.
Recommendations for Action: The author offers several recommendations for action including: optimize the right level of playfulness to drive innovation; avoid workspace fads and focus on workspace intent; add pulse surveys about employee workspace to drive design strategies that compliment innovation objectives; consider new ways of assigning space by giving thought to the requirements for the worker instead of seniority within an organization; adopt policies to reduce noise and utilize space more purposefully; lastly, the researcher introduces a new model to use when planning workspace that drives innovation.

CENTRO DE PESQUISA DE ENERGIA ELÉTRICAO objetivo do trabalho é, dentro do escopo de estudos dos Sistemas Flexíveis de Transmissão em Corrente Alternada (FACTS), apresenta um estudo preliminar sobre a atuação do Compensador Generalizado, proposto em Gyugyi [1990]. Este trabalho aborda a atuação do equipamento proposto em um sistema duas barras e procura determinar os seus efeitos qualitativos. Dois casos limites foram estudados: sistema radial com carga passiva em uma das barras e sistema com barra infinita simulando o intercâmbio de potência entre sistemas. Este estudo é realizado através da modelagem dos inversores do Compensador Generalizado como fontes de tensão e corrente operando na freqüência fundamental e em regime permanente. A reatância equivalente dos transformadores acoplados não foi considerada. Esta reatância deverá ser considerada em futuros trabalhos. Resultados importantes são obtidos, neste trabalho, em relação aos novos modos de controle do sistema de transmissão, até então impossíveis com os equipamentos de compensação tradicional.
This dissertation presents a preliminary research abouth the Generalized Compensator operation at power systems, proposed in Gyugyi [1990], into the scope of Flexible AC Transmision System studies. This study makes a description of the proposed equipment actuation at a two bus system and explains some of its qualitative effects. Two configurations weree chose: a radial with passive load and a system with infinite bus in order to study power interchange between two systems. The voltage-sourced inverters of Generalized Compensator are modeled by voltage and current contrlolled source. These sources operate at the fundamental frequency and at the steady state. The leakage impendances of the coupking transformers are not considered but they will be considered in future researches. Important results are obtained about the new control modes of the transmission system. These new control modes are impossible with the traditional compensation equipament that have been used up to now.

Cette thèse porte sur la création de connaissances scientifiques et technologiques,et son lien avec la géographie et le réseau social. En ce sens la thèse s’attacheà mieux identifier le rôle du réseau social dans la production de connaissance, et à éclairerle lien entre réseau social et géographie dans la formation des collaborations, en mettanten avant dans quelles conditions le réseau permet de s’affranchir de cette dernière. Acet égard, cette thèse apporte plusieurs contributions théoriques, méthodologiques et empiriques.L’essentiel de la thèse s’applique à assembler les mécanismes qui lient le réseausocial à la production de connaissances. La discussion théorique est ensuite appuyée parune analyse empirique dans deux contextes liés la création de connaissances. D’une partla thèse analyse la formation du réseau des collaborations scientifiques en Europe dansle domaine de la chimie, mettant en avant l’interaction réseau versus géographie dansla formation des collaborations. D’autre part, elle évalue le rôle du réseau d’inventeurdans la performance des zones d’emploi françaises en termes de production d’innovation,en se focalisant sur le type de structure de réseau qui favorise le plus l’innovation. Lesrésultats principaux sont que l’expansion du réseau social – mesuré par la connectivitédes inventeurs – a un effet bénéfique sur l’innovation. De plus, il est montré que le réseausocial permet en partie de s’affranchir de la barrière géographique pour collaborer. Cesrésultats apportent des éclairages sur le rôle du réseau dans l’organisation spatiale desactivités scientifiques et technologiquesThis thesis pertains to understanding how social networks and geography affect thecreation of new knowledge. More precisely, this thesis will question how the social networkof collaboration can influence the production of knowledge, how do geography and thesocial network interact, and whether the social network can help to bypass geography. Answeringthese questions required to make some theoretical, methodological and empiricalcontributions. One part of the thesis gathers the mechanisms linking the social network toknowledge creation, while another focuses on the interplay of geography and the networkinto the collaboration process. Following this theoretical discussion, two empirical studiesare laid out. First, it assesses the formation of scientific collaborations in Europe in thefield of chemistry. This study focus on the competing role between the social network andgeography to shaping new collaborations. Then, the thesis comes to evaluate how thenetwork of inventors influence the innovation performance of French employment areas.In particular, a specific methodology is set up to address what kind of network structurefavours the most collaboration. The main results of this thesis are that an increase inthe connectedness of inventors is always beneficial to urban innovation performance. Wealso show that social network act as a substitute to geographic distance, so that socialnetwork allows to alleviate the burden of distance. These results shed light on the role ofthe network in shaping the spatial distribution of the scientific and technological activity

The responsibility of industry towards society and the environment is a much discussed topic, both in academia and in business. Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) has recently emerged as a new concept with the potential to advance this discourse in light of two major challenges industry is facing today. The first relates to the accelerating race to innovate in order to stay competitive in a rapidly changing world. The second concerns the need to maintain public trust in industry through innovations that generate social value in addition to economic returns. This Special Issue provides empirical and conceptual contributions that explore corporate motivations to adopt RRI, the state of implementation of concrete RRI practices, the role of stakeholders in responsible innovation processes, as well as drivers and barriers to the further diffusion of RRI in industry. Overall, these contributions highlight the relevance of RRI for firms of different sizes and sectors. They also provide insights and suggestions for managers, policymakers and researchers wishing to engage with responsibility in innovation. This editorial summarizes the most pertinent conclusions across the individual articles published in this Special Issue and concludes by outlining some fruitful avenues for future research in this space.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis contributes to the field of research on corporate social responsibility (CSR) and explores the underresearched phenomenon of CSR innovation. It sheds light on this phenomenon by comparing CSR innovation in two nations with differing degrees of economic development, namely the UK and India. An interpretive, multicase study approach was chosen to compare CSR initiatives of British and Indian retailers. Data were collected through interviews, archival research, and observation. The research used sensemaking theory as a theoretical lens to examine how actors made sense of CSR innovation and communicated it to others. Data analysis was guided by a conceptual framework focussing on the triggers of sensemaking for CSR initiatives, formalisation as a key sensemaking process for CSR innovations, and the legitimation strategies employed by the case companies. The analysis shows that CSR leaders, close followers, and aspirants think differently about CSR; it also points to broader patterns of CSR innovation in the UK and India. CSR innovations were identified in both the British and Indian retail industries, contextual differences between the innovations in the two countries were observed, and the complex nature and role of these innovations were illustrated. CSR innovation was seen as involving complex constellations of continuity and newness. The British companies studied engaged in deliberate CSR leadership, actively tried to change CSR practises, and communicated these efforts externally. In contrast, the Indian companies mainly discussed CSR initiatives within the business, experimented with nonphilanthropic CSR, and tried to determine the role of CSR in the emerging Indian retail industry. The observed differences were traced back to country-specific regulatory and market environments and differences in field level conditions were highlighted. The study also examined the impact of environmental uncertainty on the management of CSR innovation and discussed strategies that the case companies use to deal with challenges related to CSR innovation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
First-class software engineering is no longer enough for an information system product to gain success on a market. Developing successful information system products has become a challenging practice that requires an understanding of those who are going to use the products. As product innovation has become the lifeblood of companies competing in the fast- paced IT industry, the end users have ultimately become those who determine the success of these type of products. User research is conducted to gather insights of users’ contexts, behaviors and feelings when using products. It can be practiced to explore how to create products and features that end users will find useful. This thesis examines how methods and tools used in user research can expose opportunities for innovation. The study was conducted by a literature study and a case study, where user research methods were put to practice to discover opportunities for creating a concept for a new product. Emphasis was also put on studying how to provide utility when developing a new product. The case study was performed over a four month period at an e- commerce company called Swiss Clinic in Stockholm, Sweden. The study shows that opportunities for innovation in user research occur in the interplay between business, user research discoveries and iterative design and that effective communication and artifacts play essential parts for innovating successfully.

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2012.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 48-51).
This paper examines whether a change in the accounting rule for research and development (R&D) cost is associated with changes in the innovation process. Specifically, I examine whether R&D expenditure, the number of patents per R&D dollar, and the number of citations per R&D dollar differ for firms that capitalize their R&D (capitalizers) relative to those that expense their R&D (expensers) after the issuance of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 86, Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. I find that relative to expensers, capitalizers increase their R&D expenditure post-SFAS 86. In addition, I find that the quality of innovation declines: post- SFAS 86, the total number of patent citations per R&D dollar decreases more for capitalizers than it does for expensers. This decline is consistent with managers of capitalizing firms taking advantage of SFAS 86 by over-investing in poor quality projects. Overall, the paper provides evidence that financial reporting can impact investments in innovation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Research innovation centers establishes a fundamental role between institutions linked
with scientific production and technological knowledge. They are defined as "liaison
bodies between higher education institutions and companies, which are dedicated to the
valorisation of products and services and to technology transfer".
In this sense, they seek to identify and value technologies that can be useful for each
company problems, leveraging innovation activities, reinforcing economic dynamism
and strengthening business investment.
The following dissertation proposes a research methodology structured in two
systemic dimensions, focused on measuring innovation performance of each center. First
dimension evaluates innovation potential that each entity is capable of generating. In turn,
second dimension assesses the real state of innovation generated by them. To this end,
two research questions have been established: "What is the role of research innovation
centers in Portuguese innovation?" and " What is the performance in terms of innovation
of the centers?". Following a methodology based on European Innovation Scoreboards,
a stabilised composite indicator was constructed.
Our results explain that, as expected, bigger research centers seem to have more
potential capacity for innovation, nevertheless, measuring innovation potential (per
employee) reveals a different picture. Matching innovation potential with real innovation
performance we found that, contrary to what was expected from the gatherer project
applications data, different centers have a better performance (especially when measured
by employee). These findings are interesting since they display that, when size is taken
out of the picture, real innovation performance is different and may lead to different
funding approaches.Os Centros de Interface Tecnológico estabelecem um papel fundamental entre as instituições ligadas à produção de conhecimento científico e tecnológico. São definidos como "entidades de ligação entre as instituições de ensino superior e as empresas, que se dedicam à valorização de produtos e serviços e à transferência de tecnologia". Neste sentido, procuram identificar e valorizar tecnologias úteis para os problemas das empresas, alavancando atividades de inovação e reforçando o dinamismo económico e o investimento empresarial. A seguinte dissertação propõe uma metodologia de investigação estruturada em duas dimensões sistémicas, focalizada em medir a performance de inovação de cada centro. A primeira dimensão pretende avaliar o potencial de inovação que cada centro geraa. Por sua vez, a segunda dimensão visa compreender o real estado de inovação gerado por esses centros. Para isso, foram estabelecidas duas perguntas de pesquisa: "Qual o pepel dos centros de interface na inovação em Portugal?" e "Qual a performance de inovação destes centros?". Sendo a metodologia baseada nos European Innovation Scoreboards, foi construído um indicador compósito. Os resultados a que chegámos espelham que os centros de investigação maiores apresentam maior potencial de inovação, no entanto, a medição do potencial de inovação (por empregado) revela um quadro diferente. Combinando o potencial de inovação com o desempenho real de inovação, descobrimos que, contrariamente ao esperado, outros centros têm um melhor desempenho. Estas conclusões mostram que quando o tamanho do centro é retirado do estudo, o desempenho real de inovação é diferente e pode levar a diferentes abordagens de financiamento.

Christensen proposed the concept of "disruptive innovation" to explain why the established firm always failed when facing new market of new technology. However, Christensen just proposed the idea of "disruptive innovation", but he didn't clearly define what "disruptive innovation" is. This research established a model including three dimensions: value innovative ability, market acceptability, and market innovative ability, to determine if it is disruptive innovation. There are some criteria under the three dimensions. This research also interviewed the persons in charge innovative products, which is very popular in the market, in three innovative companies. They reposed according to the three dimensions. Some similarities of the three innovative products are concluded.

Innovation device research for biochip application is our focus in this study. It concludes two parts: First, for a germanium on insulator (GOI) structure to detect charged proteins and simulation research. Second, study the impact of silicon-germanium (SiGe) material on hole mobility. With a GOI structure, we study the sensitivity to specific charge distributions in the electrolyte solution that arise from protein binding to the semiconductor surface. The quantum mechanical charge density in the semiconductor has been fully taken to account. The potential change at the binding sites as a function of the protein charge and ionic strength is determined. Varies amount of aspartic acids, charged proteins are used in this study. In the research of uniaxial stress effect and hole mobility of strained SiGe PMOSFETs, the hole mobility in a high Ge content (110) SiGe inversion layer is measured and simulated by a split capacitance–voltage method and a quantized method, respectively. We also explore the impact of external mechanical uniaxial stress on the SiGe (110) p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (PMOSFET). We obtained the corresponding piezoresistance coefficients of the SiGe (110) PMOSFET with external mechanical uniaxial stress parallel and perpendicular to the channel direction. Our study shows the effectiveness in combining external mechanical uniaxial stress and intrinsic biaxial compressive strain for the SiGe (110) PMOSFET. In the study of impact of strain on hole mobility in the inversion layer of PMOSFET with SiGe alloy thin film, advanced SiGe MOSFET devices are simple and low cost to manufacture. This work focuses on hole mobility in the inversion layer of PMOSFETs using alloy channel materials. The primary topic of this work is the theoretical calculation of effective mass and hole mobility in the SiGe PMOSFET inversion layer. The strain conditions considered in the calculations are intrinsic strain resulting from growing the SiGe alloy thin films on the three orientation Si substrates. The hole mobility of SiGe alloy inversion layer for PMOSFET under substrate strain and various germanium mole fractions are all investigated. The impact of wafer orientation and channel direction on the hole mobility is analyzed using the Kubo–Green-wood carrier mobility formalism.

With the gradual change of global industrial structure, Taiwan has entered the era of knowledge economy. Under such the period, innovation is not only the source of competitiveness but also one of the important issues for our country. Innovative-related issues have been widely watched by experts and scholars in recent years; however, due to the wide range of innovative applications, it is difficult to clearly grasp its structure. Therefore, it is hoped that by describing the development of innovation research in Taiwan, it can help the relevant researchers to know the process status of the innovation research in Taiwan. The data used for the analysis in this study, totally with a total of 2538 journals related to innovation, which was published from 1990 to 2016 in Taiwan, was collected from the Taiwan Citation Index database. And the data is constructed into a co-word network, then using the social network analysis method to divide the cluster. In the end, we find eight focus topics and their relationship between each other, including "National Innovation System", "Organizational Innovation", "Innovation Diffusion", "Cultural, creative industries and Service Innovation", "Technology Innovation "," Innovation management "," Social innovation "and" Teaching innovation ". It shows the multiple distribution of innovative research in Taiwan. The results show that in recent years, the annual output of domestic research literature has gradually slowed down. However, as the industrial structure changes, all sectors are affected by the service-oriented trend, which leads to customer experience and services more valuable. As a result, the issue "Cultural, creative industries and Service Innovation" rise. In addition, even in different areas, people also will talk about the concept of "Organizational Innovation" on this issue. The "National Innovation System" has also been developed for a long time and has been continuously quantified. Therefore, the two issues are almost linked with other topics. In contrast, "teaching innovation" is an independent minority issue, although its prevalence of the earliest years, which means that the education sector has emphasized on teaching innovation for a continuous long time, it has more unrelated to other issues because of its limited scope of the study. This study provides two recommendations for relevant academic or industry as a future research direction. First, the issue "Cultural, creative industries and Service Innovation" should continue to grow, so we suggest that future research can be conducted more in case studies to explore innovative models of different industries and establish a record of experience sharing and inheritance. Secondly, with the rise of social enterprise, the emerging enterprise type in recent years, it is suggested that the issue "Social Innovation" can be conducted more in case studies to enhance public awareness of this issue as well as the positive impact on the social problem of solving and caring in the future.

The development of full-fledged e-learning tools in recent years has highlighted its benefits—no time or space limitations, reduced learning time and cost, and the availability of interactive and diverse materials, making it a suitable option for after-school remedial learning. The question that arises is how can value be added to entrance-examination-oriented services? An innovative business model that connects e-learning with physical learning support mechanisms could effectively improve user-learning motivation and performance as well as service innovations that could further differentiate e-learning providers. With this in mind, this study examines the methods needed to help meet consumer expectations after e-learning product purchases. Secondary school students preparing for entrance examinations are generally passive learners, meaning that they may be less motivated to learn through e-learning courses (ELC), resulting in an abandonment of e-learning tools. Furthermore, the integrity of e-learning materials has often been questioned regarding the lack of physical learning support mechanisms and poor learning interaction, both of which may contribute to learners’ poor performance. In addition, current e-learning materials often follow a one-time, buy-all sales strategy that provides users with an extended period, which means that the e-learning products are highly priced. Moreover, the consequence of this sales strategy is that users are tied to the purchased products, as switching costs are high. Based on the results of a user survey, in-depth user interviews, and a business-model-based case analysis, this study designs an innovative competitive e-learning business model. Current e-learning products are most often sold using a monorail approach such as by direct marketing or through stores, after which the users are left to their own devices. However, users question the effectiveness this e-learning business model, as it is believed that the lack of the mentor mechanisms found in physical learning is a problem for e-learning promotion. The study explored method to reduce barrier to e-learning, improve student acceptance, and build innovative e-learning model for a unique business mode that addressed user’s long-standing distrust of the technology and achieved a better learning efficiency, in order to achieve the purpose of research. The Top1 Study Center developed in this study integrates physical learning support services with e-learning. The proposed innovative business model was tested for three years to verify whether it was able to increase the consumer’s intention to purchase and motivation to use. Over the three years of observation, the Top1 Study Center produced better results for the business-model-based operations and sales revenues and showed greater operational efficiency compared with traditional e-learning business units. Therefore, it was proven that an innovative business model that combines physical channels with dedicated learning support teams can boost the effectiveness of e-learning sales and market acceptance. Through the research and its evidence, it was found that innovative integrated virtual and physical service proved to be essential for e-learning users, especially the high school students. In the study, a dual-track innovative business model was proposed for e-learning. The highly customized and innovative service was introduced into the e-learning process, and a perfect mentoring mechanism with physical counseling environment were the supporting services. The study found that the innovative business model could be a new remedial teaching option for high school students and was a driving force for innovation based on the result of research on the existing e-learning market.

Since the mobile voice market has been fully shared in Taiwan, the mobile companies had tried many different ways to gain more profits. One of the most valuable ways to gain profits is the mobile value-added services. Furthermore, the QR code, one of the value-added services, sounds that is a killer application of the market share. This research is based on the fundamentals of innovation diffusion theory and consumer behavior theory to find out the adoption factors of QR code. A questionnaire for consumer adoption is investigated, and the multiple regression is leveraged to analyze the most important factors for assisting later marketing practice.

This study is about consumer's resistance to eBook. The motivation of the researcher implemented of domestic and the international eBook reader, once again led the eBook reader by fever. According to survey by Taiwan's eBook consumers found that nearly 65% of the Taiwanese people only heard of eBooks but have never used it. In the other words, the extent of the use of eBook does not achieve critical mass in Taiwan. Why consumers do not use eBook and the factors of their resistance to the innovative technology are the purposes of the thesis. I discussed non-eBook users' perceptions of the technology, and used Ram and Sheth (1989) theory as the core framework to explore eBooks non-eBook users' resistance toward it. This study used focus group method, and collected empirical data from non-eBook users from various backgrounds. The research found the following outcomes. Firstly, eBook resistant users recognized eBook from three major concepts: eBook as an electronic hardware devices, eBook as digital forms of book, and eBook as both hardware and software. Different recognitions of eBook will yield different resistant attitudes toward eBook usages. Secondly, most of the consumers prefer to read paper based book and refuse eBook because they do not have to adapt new technology system and devices which might increase certain risk. Some non-eBook consumers do not rule out exposure to eBook innovation, but blame for the functional aspects of eBook to be one of the reasons of eBook resistance. Additionally, even the development of eBook technologies has lower the technological barriers for the consumers, purchasing hardware devices of eBook still cause problems from economic aspect of resistance. Finally, eBook platform and content seem to be significant issues for the consumers. The non-eBook consumers of this study emphasize that a further unification of the format of eBook content provided by the different bookstores will be another dimensions which influence their future decisions of adopting eBook. To sum up, this study gives eBook industry a picture of Taiwanese non-eBook users and their consumption behavior. Obviously, the diffusion of eBook innovative devices in Taiwan has transcended the software domain, the way of promoting eBook will be a further integration of different digital formats of software and content across different hardware devices of eBook.

Innovation has become a vital thinking in government governance and enterprise operation. The process of government and enterprises devoting to innovation and the factors for success have also become an important issue for academic research. Although innovation-related issues continue to be watched, there are few studies focusing on the development of innovation research in Taiwan. Thus, the study mainly aims to observe innovation-related theses and dissertations in Taiwan by co-word analysis, and describe the development context of innovation research in Taiwan, which is called “innovation map based on theses”. Afterwards, the study tries to compare the innovation map based on theses to the innovation map based on journal. It is hoped that it can help the relevant researchers to know the process status of the innovation research in Taiwan. The data used for the analysis in this study, totally with a total of 10514 theses about innovation, which was published from 1976 to 2016 in Taiwan, and 646 dissertations related to innovation, which was published from 1988 to 2016 in Taiwan, was collected from the National Digital Library of Thesis and Dissertation in Taiwan. Besides, these two data are discussed separately. The data is constructed into a co-word network, and then using cluster analysis to explore the main topic in the data and the relation between clusters. In the end, there are ten focus topic according to co-word between theses, including " Innovation management ", " Customer management innovation ", " Organizational Innovation ", " Technology Innovation ", " Innovative design practice ", " Innovative performance ", " Teaching innovation ", " Innovation Diffusion ", " Service Innovation ", and " Industrial innovation and policy ". In addition, the biggest topic of innovation-related dissertations is " Organizational Innovation ", and then comes to "Innovation Diffusion". The results show that the annual output of domestic innovation-related research has gradually slowed down in recent year. The topic of the whole innovation-related dissertations in Taiwan prone to be single. On the contrary, innovation-related theses in Taiwan show the diverse distribution of topic. Moreover, due to influenced by the industrial structure changes, the topic in early times focusing on technique-level has transferred to concentrate on service-orientated. Hence, " Service Innovation " has become an emerging topic; Furthermore " Innovation management "and " Customer management innovation " cover lots of issues largely, and these two topics have kept high output. The amount of research in both topics are numerous, and these topics have deeply relation with other topics as well; By contrast, "Innovative design practice", "Teaching innovation", and "Industrial innovation and policy" are independent minority topics.

With the advent of the big bang disruption, the pattern of enterprise development must also change, bringing about a reduction in the life cycle of the enterprise. This means that innovators have unprecedented opportunities and challenges. They only need to tap the real needs of consumers and the right market and timing, companies have the opportunity to fly high and beyond the sky. However, when the new system completeness of the enterprise is insufficient, it is likely to give competitors a chance to break through and lead to a crisis of entrepreneurship. Innovators need to have Lean & Agile thinking to assist in the design and implementation of system completeness, in the case of limited resources and time, we can take into account the high-speed innovation in environmental changes and guide the development of new enterprise.
