Companies nowadays operate under conditions of increasing competitive pressure from globalization, new market players and shorter production cycles [5]. To face these challenges, innovations are considered as major engines to enhance firms’ performance and to strengthen their competitive position in the market [9]. Nowadays, developing internal innovation capacities is no longer sufficient to gain and sustain competitive advantage. Therefore, a trend to intensify collaboration between companies across industry networks and partnerships, opening up their innovation processes has emerged [2].

A inovação é considerada imprescindível nas estratégias de desenvolvimento e na competição internacional. As mudanças climáticas e o aumento da demanda mundial de energia primária acentuam a importância das inovações tecnológicas na área de energia. A implementação de tecnologias de energia limpa não transformou a matriz energética mundial. A transição para as fontes de energias renováveis implica confrontar os subsídios para a produção de combustíveis fósseis. O problema de pesquisa refere-se às inovações relativas às energias renoveveis que visam à sustentabilidade. Avaliou-se como os sistemas de inovação consideram a sustentabilidade como uma plataforma de desenvolvimento científico, tecnológico e de inovação. O agrupamento de tecnologias de energia limpa ou de baixo carbono segue uma trajetória tecnológica que não se coaduna com o modelo energético com base em combustíveis fósseis. A noção da emergência de um paradigma tecnológico com tecnologias que visam à sustentabilidade corrobora a perspectiva de que os sistemas de inovação de ambos os países se orienta para a sustentabilidade. Formulou-se a hipótese de que as inovações relativas às energias renováveis, no Brasil e na China, estão intrinsecamente vinculadas à dimensão da sustentabilidade e da segurança energética. A pesquisa teve como objetivo geral analisar as inovações referentes às energias renováveis para alcançar a sustentabilidade. O procedimento metodológico para a formulação do referencial teórico consistiu em levantamento bibliográfico de livros e artigos relativos à economia evolucionária, à economia regulacionista e à sociologia econômica. Na revisão bibliográfica identificou-se a lacuna nas abordagens econômicas, relacionada à dimensão social, em particular às estratégias de cooperação e de competição entre os agentes sociais, assim como aos indicadores de sustentabilidade. A construção de um quadro analítico foi indispensável para articular as variáveis explicativas já presentes nas teorias econômicas e as variáveis explicativas que se referem ao enfoque da sociologia econômica. A sociologia econômica contribuiu para discernir a cooperação entre os diferentes atores sociais, uma dimensão analítica que raramente constitui outras abordagens da inovação. A comparação dos sistemas de inovação do Brasil e da China teve como parâmetro o desenvolvimento sustentável e a segurança energética. Avaliou-se a perspectiva de transição de um paradigma tecnoeconômico e o processo de mudança que incide sobre ideias, comportamentos, organizações e instituições. Entende-se que a relação entre as inovações e as mudanças sociais e institucionais não pode ser compreendida apenas no contexto da sustentabilidade. As dimensões da segurança energética são cruciais para a análise das inovações, uma vez que também constrangem a direção das mudanças.
Innovation is considered essential in development strategies and in international competition. Climate change and the increase in world primary energy demand stress the importance of technological innovation in the energy sector. The implementation of clean energy technologies has not transformed the world energy matrix. The transition to renewable energy sources means challenging subsidies for fossil fuel production. The research problem refers to innovations concerning renoveveis energies aimed at sustainability. Was evaluated as the innovation systems consider sustainability as a scientific development platform, technology and innovation. The grouping of clean or low-carbon energy technologies follows a technological trajectory that is not consistent with the energy model based on fossil fuels. The notion of emergence of a technological paradigm with technologies aimed at sustainability supports the view that the innovation systems of both countries is oriented towards sustainability. Formulated the hypothesis that the innovations relating to renewable energy, in Brazil and China, are intrinsically linked to the dimension of sustainability and energy security. The research aimed to analyze the innovations relating to renewable energy to achieve sustainability. The methodological approach for the formulation of the theoretical framework consisted of literature books and articles on evolutionary economics, the regulationist economy and economic sociology. In the literature review identified the gap in economic approaches, related to the social dimension, in particular the strategies of cooperation and competition among social actors, as well as the sustainability indicators. The construction of an analytical framework was essential to articulate the explanatory variables already present in economic theories and explanatory variables relating to the focus of economic sociology. The economic sociology contributed to discern the cooperation between the different social actors, an analytical dimension that is rarely other approaches to innovation. The comparison of Brazil and China's innovation system was to parameter sustainable development and energy security. The transition perspective was assessed a techno-economic paradigm and the process of change that focuses on ideas, behaviors, organizations and institutions. It is understood that the relationship between innovations and social and institutional changes can not be understood only in the context of sustainability. The dimensions of energy security is crucial for the analysis of innovation since they also constrain the direction of change.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 61-65).
One might argue real estate is entering a period where technological innovations have greater impact on investment returns than conventional metrics related to the overall economy. While this has already been demonstrated by e-commerce disrupting the retail and logistics landscape, industry leaders are now starting to become more and more attentive to mobility related implications, resulting from the recent advent of ride-hailing providers like Uber, Lyft, and Didi. Broad literature, generated over the past decades and applying widely recognized econometric concepts, emphasizes the significance of public transport access for residential real estate values. More recently, claims arose that the value of proximity to public transport is being challenged by ride-hailing, serving as a substitute for rail and bus services. While the existence of a certain substitution effect is supported and documented by academic studies, research about its impact on real estate is rare. This thesis analyzes the value change of public transport access over time, by applying a hedonic regression model to a sample of 257,100 residential real estate transactions which have taken place in New York City between January 2005 and June 2018. The distance between each individual home and the closest of 550 heavy rail transit stops is used to determine the value of proximity to public transport in these transactions. Contrary to anecdotal claims and economic theory, the results of this analysis suggest that the value of proximity, i.e. rent gradients towards heavy rail transit stops, increases over the observed time period, especially since the emergence of Uber and within walking distance (0.5 miles) from transit access points. Since mobility innovation's long-term effects might not be in line with short-term implications and notable regional variances might exist, the thesis recommends ongoing analysis of the subject matter and expanding the research from New York City to various markets with different urban shapes, transportation modes, and demographics.

Background - Lean paradigm has been successfully employed in the manufacturing sector in past decades, however in the engineering services sector its application has unfortunately not received the same attention both from academia and industry. Problem Discussion – The negligence of Lean in the engineering services sector rendered this sector deprived from Lean’s proven benefits in the manufacturing sector. The reason for this negligence can be traced back to the fact that Lean’s implementation is not a straightforward task and additionally its direct translation from the manufacturing sector into the engineering services sector may impede innovative capabilities of the engineering services sector that are crucial for its sustainable growth. Problem Formulation - In addressing the aforementioned issues, this thesis investigates the following key research question: “Whether and how Lean Innovation can be implemented in the engineering services sector?” Purpose - This work explores and employs different modern theoretical concepts from literature to promote Lean Innovation in the engineering services sector by first developing a theoretical framework in terms of nine propositions and then examining them through a qualitative empirical research. Methodology - The qualitative empirical research is conducted by first gathering empirical data through expert interviews and then analysing it employing the directed content analysis technique in order to examine the nine propositions promoting Lean Innovation. Findings - This study concludes that Lean Innovation in the engineering services sector is achievable by employing modern theoretical concepts like open innovation, the systems approach to problem solving and transformational leadership in a thoughtful and planned manner. Limitations - The lack of depth of the theoretical as well as empirical research focus in terms of the sample size and quality stemming from the challenge of finding enough experts with versatile knowledge in the thesis’ timeframe can be considered as limitations on the quality of this research.

This thesis explores the emergence of transformative innovation policy, which can be understood as a reframing of the political agenda of innovation policy to address societal challenges such as climate change. This thesis conceptualises transformative innovation policy as an emerging policy paradigm, layered upon but not fully replacing earlier paradigms of Science & Technology Policy and Innovation Systems Policy. Grounded in argumentative discourse analysis, this thesis assesses the discourse institutionalisation of this emerging policy paradigm. The four empirical chapters focus on international policy organisations operating in a European context, namely the European Commission, Climate-KIC, the OECD and the European Environment Agency. The chapters are framed around three common questions, namely how transformative innovation policy is expressed in practice, to what extent it is institutionalised, and why events unfolded the way they did. The cases demonstrate that a paradigm shift in innovation policy is underway. There is a widespread recognition that existing ideas about innovation policy and its goals and instruments are failing to address current crises and that alternative solutions should be pursued. However, there is still much ambiguity about how exactly these new goals need to be addressed. This leads to clearly identifiable discursive struggles between broad and narrow articulations of transformative innovation policy. As a result, different directions of policy travel can be identified. This process is messy, and characteristic of the more evolutionary nature of policy change. The thesis also presents a closer assessment of the so-called ‘administrative battle of ideas’ representative of this broader paradigm shift. They display that organisational legacy and path dependency matter but that agency and path creation also play a crucial role. The presence of assumption surfacing and institutional entrepreneurship seem vital in achieving organisational change, which may well underlie any significant change in policy paradigm. This thesis contributes to knowledge by providing a conceptually and empirically informed framework to compare and contrast consecutive paradigms in innovation policy, and to identify and discuss different groups currently occupying this newly created discursive space. Furthermore, it makes some modest methodological and conceptual elaborations to the study of policy paradigms and policy paradigm change. In addition, this thesis shows that participant observation has potential to form a valuable contribution to STI policy studies.

Emanating from the mainstream accounting and managerial thinking, which hinges upon the “command and control” assumption, a firm’s Intellectual Capital (IC) is understood as an objective reality. Influenced by this understanding, advocates of the measuring paradigm attempt to posit IC under parsimonious conditions within a reporting system. This thesis contributes to an emerging critical trend that seeks to counterbalance the limitations of the measuring paradigm and explores the possibilities of constructing a learning paradigm. A series of high-level questions that confront both paradigms, including their ontological assumptions, methodological considerations, foci of practice, and criteria for ICinformation disclosure, are considered. Whilst the measuring paradigm prioritises the activities of assessing and reporting individual IC elements, a learning paradigm is concerned with nurturing a learning motive in IC practice for organisational change and innovation. The analysis of a learning paradigm draws on the works of three processphilosophers: Habermas, Vygotsky and Deleuze. This thesis engages with the case study of “InCaS”: a project combined IC research and practice, involving researchers and 25 SMEs from 5 European countries. Data were collected through qualitative survey and administrative documents, interviews, and group discussions over a 30-month-period. Thematic analysis and reconstructed stories analysis were applied where suitable. The findings reveal that a learning paradigm does not stand against the measuring paradigm, but transforms it by enabling a flowing process of IC in SMEs. This flowing process contributes to the generation and development of new knowledge, new practice, and a new sense of positive energy. Based on this, the thesis suggests that the future of IC practice should focus on “IC flow management”, i.e. activate a non-linear process of learning-by-reflection, learning-by-participation, and learning-by-affection. In doing so, IC would not be perceived as a lifeless commodity, but as a metaphor of life that accommodates different pathways to value.

Les futurs réseaux de distribution d’électricité devront héberger une part importante et croissante de sources d’énergies renouvelables intermittentes. De plus, ils devront faire face à une part croissante de véhicules électriques. Ces tendances induisent le besoin de nouveaux paradigmes et architectures d’exploitation du réseau de distribution, afin de fiabiliser les réseaux et d'assurer la qualité de fourniture d’électricité. Dans cette thèse nous proposons une nouvelle architecture capable de favoriser la collaboration entre les acteurs du marché de gros, les gestionnaires de réseau de distribution et les clients finaux, afin de tirer parti des ressources énergétiques distribuées tout en prenant en compte les contraintes des réseaux de distribution. L’architecture est conçue pour fournir des services innovants de gestion de la demande résidentielle, dans le cadre de l'autoconsommation individuelle et collective (à l'échelle d'un quartier). La thèse apporte trois contributions principales. D'abord, sur la base de l'internet des objets et de la technologie blockchain, la thèse fournit les éléments de base pour les futures architectures de gestion de l'énergie au niveau du réseau de distribution. Ensuite, en focalisant sur les services rendus par de telles architectures, nous proposons un marché intra-journalier au pas horaire pour l'échange local de l'énergie renouvelable entre maisons, associé à un mécanisme d'allocation dynamique des phases afin d'améliorer la qualité de fourniture. Finalement, nous proposons un mécanisme de contrôle en temps réel pour l'ajustement des transactions du marché vers des échanges finaux d'électricité qui respectent les restrictions posées par le gestionnaire du réseau électrique
Future electricity distribution grids will host an important and growing share of variable renewable energy sources and local storage resources. Moreover, they will face new load structures due for example to the growth of the electric vehicle market. These trends raise the need for new distribution grid architecture and operation paradigms to keep the grid stable and to ensure quality of supply. In addition, these new paradigms will enable the provision of advanced new services. In this thesis we propose a novel architecture capable of fostering collaboration among wholesale market actors, distribution system operators and end customers, to leverage flexible distributed energy resources while respecting distribution system constrains. The architecture is designed for providing innovative residential demand side management services, with a special focus on services enabled by self-consumption at the household and neighborhood level. Following these general objectives, the thesis provides three main contributions. First, based on internet of things and blockchain technology, we propose the building blocks for future distribution grid energy management architectures. Then, focusing on the services enabled by such architectures, we propose hour-ahead markets for the local exchange of renewable energy among households together with dynamic phase allocation mechanism to improve the quality of electricity supply. Finally, we propose a real time control mechanism for the adjustment of market decisions to satisfy distribution system operator constraints

This thesis amends some existing theoretical gaps and an overall lack of empirical studies regarding the ways R&D managers can use Open Innovation during the management of the radical innovation processes’ early development phase.Using existing theories, an interview guide and an analytical model was created. These were later used during the gathering and analysis of empirical data. Our sampling involves three of Sweden’s largest companies, representing three distinct industry fields. Interviews took place during April 2010, and all the interviewees were R&D managers with previous experience with Open Innovation and radical innovation.The results reveal that the managers do use Open Innovation when managing radical innovation, and point to both benefits and issues brought about by using Open Innovation during this process. The use of Open Innovation during the management of radical innovation can be divided into two main aspects; the actual extent to which it is used, and the ways the managers use it. Our results reveal that the extent varies from an early peak, an in between Open Innovation chasm and a final increase. Furthermore, our studies also show that the main ways the managers use OI are; exploitation and creation of revenue streams, knowledge leveraging and integration, and finally to create superior products using broad knowledge networks.

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação Internacional
O aumento de refugiados por todo o mundo tem colocado o sistema de protecção internacional sobre pressão. As soluções tradicionais mostram ser insuficientes para fazer face aos números de pessoas que todos os dias necessita de assistência e protecção. Os refugiados, têm na última década mostrado preferência na deslocação para os meios urbanos, onde esperam encontrar mais vantagens, liberdade e oportunidades para garantir o bem-estar e o futuro das suas famílias. Alguns países começam igualmente a alterar as suas políticas de acolhimento baseadas em campos de refugiados para integração local destes nas comunidades locais. Devido aos elevados custos originados pela assistência e protecção disponibilizada aos refugiados, torna-se cada vez mais importante existir maior solidariedade entre os vários Estados para que possa existir uma divisão mais justa dos custos assim como da responsabilidade no acolhimento de refugiados. Embora os conflitos continuem a ser uma das principais causas para o aumento do número de refugiados, os desastres naturais têm igualmente contribuído para estes números elevados, levando a comunidade internacional a questionar-se sobre as consequências que as alterações climáticas podem trazer num futuro próximo para os refugiados. Todas estas alterações quer nas estratégias quer na consciencialização do problema dos refugiados, demonstram que poderemos estar perante uma mudança de paradigma nos refugiados, necessária para alterar o modo como são abordados os problemas dos refugiados, mas sobretudo para a criação de soluções inovadoras que garantam uma maior protecção e uma melhor qualidade de vida aos refugiados.
The rise in refugees around the world has put the system for international protection under pressure. Traditional methods until now practiced have shown to be insuficient to the number of people now in need of protection. Even though most refugees go to camps, nowadays a lot also go to urbanized towns and cities, in search of better quality of life and freedom. Due to these facts, some refugee camps set their sights on integrating refugees into local safe comunities. Because of the massive rise in the number of refugees to look to other countries for protection, it has become even more important thst between States there exists a real sense of solidarity, not just in relationto costs, but also in relation to the responsability to acomodate so many people. Even though conflict is still the main cause for people to flee their own country, natural disasters have also been one of the primary causes and, for this reason, the international community is starting to question what effect climate change can have on this problem. All the alterations, may it be in the strategies used or the solutions applied, show that it is becoming a nevessity to change the way we think and the way we act on this problem, so that we can insure refugees all over the world are safe and have proper quality of life.

As Narrativas Políticas são histórias que contêm começo, meio e fim; vilões e heróis; perdas e ganhos; e, sobretudo, uma moral (soluções políticas). E por que estes elementos narrativos são importantes nesse estudo? Por meio de sua análise, pudemos compreender aquilo que é considerado a pedra fundamental das articulações e mudanças políticas: As ideias e os interesses. A Política Científica e Tecnológica (PCT) brasileira apresentou distintas narrativas nas últimas décadas, os documentos oficiais de C&T da década de 1970, como o I e II Plano Nacional Básico de Ciência Tecnologia (PBDCT, 1972-74 e 1976-1979, respectivamente), tinham como meta, impulsionar a autonomia nacional em setores estratégicos e suprir a demanda de mão-de-obra qualificada para que o processo de industrialização nacional fosse finalizado. Todavia, á medida que a crise econômica aumentava na década de 1980, a C&T perdia a imagem de ferramenta para o progresso, desta forma, o fomento público foi retirado progressivamente e a Academia teve que seguir sem amplo amparo estatal dos Planos anteriores, como vimos no III PBDCT (1980-1985). O resultado desta falta de financiamento público à C&T foi catastrófico: Houve um verdadeiro desmonte no setor, ocasionada pela falta de recursos. A C&T não tinha espaço estratégico na Agenda pública. A situação foi, gradualmente, revertida quando Fernando Henrique Cardoso assumiu a presidência em 1995 e promoveu inúmeras reformas, entre elas, tentar tornar o setor de C&T mais eficaz, empreendedor e inovativo. Para isto, era preciso desenvolver rearranjos estatais, como os que foram postulados no PlanoPluriAnual (PPA, 1997), no Programa de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico, sobretudo, em sua terceira fase (III PADCT, 1998-2004), no Livro Verde (2001) e Livro Branco (2002). Estes documentos apontavam que as políticas públicas C&T estariam empenhadas em assumir novos desafios, convidar novos atores para sua fabricação e remodelar sua dinâmica de produção para atender um objetivo central: Produzir Inovações Tecnológicas por meio da interação universidade-empresa. Tal sinergia foi apresentada como peça-chave na transformação de conhecimento em riqueza, isto agregaria competitividade às nossas empresas, provocando uma nova inserção do Brasil nas relações comerciais internacionais. Essa seria a justificativa última para o financiamento público da ciência. Esta e demais premissas, também estavam presentes nos documentos de C&T&I de seu sucessor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, como nos textos da Lei da Inovação (2004) 3º Conferência Nacional de C&T&I (2006) e Livro Azul (2010). Nosso estudo buscou analisar os elementos narrativos de todos os documentos citados e, ao analisa-los, pudemos concluir que desde 1995 o Paradigma que informa a Política Nacional de C&T é lastreado em pressupostos bem distintos daqueles vividos pelo auge do binômio na década de 1970. Acreditamos que esta reorientação se deve, sobretudo, pelo fato da Comunidade Científica ter absorvido, há quinze anos, o discurso da Inovação tecnologia empresarial como alternativa para manter-se no bojo do processo decisório da PCT, captar recursos e continuar a Pesquisa, instrumentos inviáveis nas décadas de 1980-90.
Policy Narratives are stories that contain \"beginning, middle and end\"; villains and heroes; losses and gains; and, above all, a moral (political solutions). And why these narrative elements are important in this study? Through its analysis, we understand what is considered the cornerstone of the joints of political changes: The ideas and the interests. The Science and Technology Policy (PCT) Brazilian showed distinct narratives in recent decades, the official documents of S & T in the 1970s, as the Basic I and II National Plan for Science, Technology (PBDCT, 1972-74 and 1976-1979, respectively), had as its goal, to boost national autonomy in strategic sectors and meet the demand for skilled labor for the national industrialization process was finalized. However, as the economic crisis grew in the 1980s, S & T lost its image as a \"tool\" to progress. In this way, the public support was withdrawn and the Academy had to follow on without extensive state support given by the earlier Plans, as we saw in PBDCT III (1980-1985). The result of this lack of public funding to the S & T sector was catastrophic: There was a real disassemble the sector, caused by lack of resources. The S & T had no strategic space in the public agenda. This situation was gradually reversed when Fernando Henrique Cardoso took office in 1995. The new President promoted numerous reforms, among them, the one trying to make the most effective use of S & T sector, as a tool for innovation and entrepreneurship. In order to reach this results, it was necessary to promote institutional rearrangements, which spelled out in the PlanoPluriAnual (PPA, 1997), in the Third phase of the Plan for Support of Scientific and Technological Development, mainly, the third step (III PADCT, 1998-2004) the Green Paper (2001) and White Paper (2002). These documents indicated that S & T policies would now be committed to take on new challenges, invite new players to reshape the dynamics of their production in order to meet a central goal: to produce technological Innovations through university-industry interaction. This synergy was presented as a key in transforming knowledge into wealth. And by doing that, science would add competitiveness to our companies, supporting a new insertion of Brazil in international market. This and other assumptions were also present in the documents of S & T & I of his successor, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, as the texts of the Innovation Law (2004) 3rd National Conference on S & T (2006) and Blue Book (2010). That said, our study investigates the narrative elements of any cited documents and to analyze them, we concluded that since 1995 the paradigm that informs the National Policy of S & T is backed by very different assumptions of those experienced by the binomial peak in decade 1970. we believe that this shift is due, above all, because the scientific community has absorbed fifteen years ago, the discourse of Innovation with half remain at the core of decision-making of the PCT, raise funds and continue the search, viable instruments in decades of 1980-90.

The social dynamics of contemporary globalized world and its impacts on education require from teacher changes in pedagogic strategy to overcome the difficulties that students have shown during construction process of knowledge. This study, inserted on the research line Formation and teacher profession, is about the question of innovation at the Brazilian educational scope. The goal is to understand and analyze concepts and conceptions that involves this thematic, aiming its importance in teacher formation projects that focus the education improvement. The target was mainly to identify and analyze, between 2005 and 2009, what has being published in educational events organized in Brazil (ANPED National Association of Post-Graduation and Research in Education; ENDIPE National Meeting of Teaching and Practice; REDESTRADO Study Network on Teacher Work; National and International congresses of Education) and Database of the post-graduation universities about this thematic, considered as relevant. It was also proposed to analyze critically the challenges of university before education formation and profession process, showing ruptures with traditional paradigms. The theoretical and empirical methodology adopted consisted on the bibliographic analysis, which used qualitative and quantitative parameters, seeking for better results view. Therefore, information was collected through reading guidelines from the titles and abstracts that presented the words to innovate, innovation, changes, ruptures, paradigms, meaningful practices, reforms, or/and publications, whose titles refer to some innovation way. In total, 211 papers have been cataloged, but because of the circumstantial limitations of time and space, 36 papers from ANPED were selected considered in the academic means the most representative meeting of education in Brazil making up a dialogue as other data collected. The innovation conceptions that appear in such publications of ANPED are diversified. According to the approached innovation, it was noted, from 2005 to 2009, that the majority refers to teacher pedagogy, and that there is no significant number of papers that followed the epistemological perspective of innovation, defended in this dissertation. The innovation concepts found, in general, are ambiguous, and most proposals suggested is thorough and reasoned. It is concluded that the innovation conception is a complex and challenging matter and although it is still driven by the traditional paradigm, you can trigger it from epistemological ruptures. So, new paths are build up in education, based on articulated dialogues between institutions and their agents.
A dinâmica social do mundo globalizado contemporâneo e suas repercussões na educação requerem dos professores mudanças na estratégia pedagógica para superar as dificuldades que alunos têm demonstrado durante o processo de construção do conhecimento. O presente estudo, inserido na linha de pesquisa Formação e Profissionalização Docente, versa sobre a questão da inovação no âmbito educacional brasileiro. O objetivo é conhecer e analisar os conceitos e concepções que envolvem essa temática, tendo em vista sua importância nos projetos de formação de professores que almejam a melhoria da educação. O alvo foi principalmente, identificar e analisar, no período de 2005-2009, o que se tem publicado nos eventos educacionais organizados no Brasil (ANPED Associação Nacional de Pós- Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação; ANPED, ENDIPE Encontro Nacional de Didática e Prática de Ensino; REDESTRADO Rede de Estudos sobre o Trabalho Docente; Congressos Nacional e Internacional de Educação) e em Banco de dados de universidades da pósgraduação sobre essa temática, considerada como relevante. Propôs-se, ainda, analisar criticamente os desafios da universidade diante do processo de formação e profissionalização docente, evidenciando rupturas com os paradigmas tradicionais. A metodologia de natureza teórica e empírica adotada consistiu da análise bibliográfica, a qual se utilizou de parâmetros qualiquantitativos, na busca por uma melhor visualização dos resultados. Para tanto, coletaram-se informações por meio de roteiros de leituras a partir dos títulos e resumos que apresentassem as palavras inovar, inovação, mudanças, rupturas, paradigmas, práticas significativas, reformas, ou e/ou publicações, cujos títulos se referiam de algum modo à inovação. Ao todo foram catalogados 211(duzentos e onze) trabalhos, mas em virtude das limitações circunstanciais de tempo/espaço, selecionou-se para análise 36 (trinta e seis) trabalhos da ANPED - considerada no meio acadêmico a reunião mais representativa da educação no Brasil - fazendo-se um diálogo com outros dados coletados. Ressalta-se que as concepções de inovação que apareceram nessas publicações da ANPED são diversificadas. Dos trabalhos analisados no período 2005-2009, percebeu-se, quanto ao tipo de inovação abordada, que a maioria refere-se ao fazer pedagógico do professor, e que não há um número expressivo de trabalhos que caminhou na perspectiva da inovação epistemológica, defendida nessa dissertação. Os conceitos de inovação encontrados, em geral, são ambíguos, e a maioria das propostas sugeridas não é aprofundada e fundamentada. Conclui-se que a concepção de inovação é uma questão complexa e desafiadora e que, embora ainda esteja impelida pelo paradigma tradicional, é possível provocá-la a partir de rupturas epistemológicas. Assim, constroem-se novos caminhos na educação fundamentando-se em diálogos articulados entre as instituições e seus agentes.

Business management Paradigm is Changing. We used to have big, best, and fast and now it seems that we are having one more paradigm of “Open”. Chesbrough (2003) argued for cooperating between competitors or allies in his article “The era of open innovation”. (ChesbroughH.W, 2003) This research is about open innovation with customer participation. Many organizations built platform to motivate customers to participate the product development process. Hence, we selected three different types of platforms which are full-open, semi-open and closed platform for case study. To compare different perspective from organizations and customers, we will use both of case study of the organizations who opened competencies to the customers and survey of the customers who are creating derivative products. From that case-study and survey result, we aim to figure out what to open and what to close for the organizations that are implementing open innovation strategy. We will suggest a competency pyramid model that helps organizations to divide their competencies into two different sectors: open competency and closed competency. And finally, we will find out what factors are important to make a platform successful.

Denna studie behandlar jämställdhetsaspekten inom Svenska Ishockeyförbundet och några utvalda underliggande divisioner. Ämnet jämställdhet är ständigt ett debatterat ämne i dagens samhälle på alla olika nivåer och arbetet kring frågan är både aktuellt och viktigt. Det finns en önskan att genom denna studie skapa ett intresse kring ämnet ur ett nytt perspektiv, och att visa en nyanserad bild än den negativa bild som idag ofta förmedlas. Jämställdhet och det arbete som krävs för att utveckla det förmedlas många gånger som en börda och något problematiskt. Samtidigt förmedlas inte fördelarna med jämställdhet i förhållande till de förbättringar det kan leda till inom alla organisationer. Generellt diskuteras jämställdhet och mångfald, vilka förändringar som kan leda till en utveckling och hur paradigminnovation kan utveckla en organisations redan befintliga jämställdhetsarbete. Brister förtydligas och förändringsförslag ges för att kunna skapa en bättre balans mellan könen i en mansdominerad organisation. Detta görs genom semistrukturerade intervjuer riktade till ett antal utvalda respondenter. På grund av att denna studie vill undersöka en social verklighet är en kvalitativ forskningsmetod att föredra. Detta eftersom att det ger störst utrymme när det handlar om enskilda individer. Med det sagt är denna studie baserad på kvalitativ forskning för att kunna påvisa den sociala verklighet som avspeglar organisationen.

Os sistemas educativos, um pouco por todo o mundo, atravessam situações de crise. Questiona-se, cada vez mais, a escola e o papel do professor, e os governos impulsionam transformações legislativas para tentarem dar resposta aos problemas detetados. Esta dissertação aspira identificar em que medida os efeitos das mudanças nas escolas e nos professores provocam mal-estar e stress nos docentes. Esta tese divide-se em duas partes, com as respetivas vertentes metodológicas. A primeira parte, ou parte teórica, baseia-se na pesquisa documental e bibliográfica assente em quatro temáticas: o paradigma emergente e os professores; a escola como organização fulcral; a profissionalidade docente; a avaliação dos professores em tempos de mudança e o mal-estar e stress dos professores. Na segunda parte apresentamos o estudo empírico realizado com oitenta professores de uma escola de 3ºciclo e ensino secundário numa escola do Vila Nova de Gaia. Pretendeu-se saber, através das questões propostas num inquérito, os níveis de satisfação dos professores com a escola onde lecionavam e com o desempenho da sua profissão, e os níveis de esforço emocional despendido e de stress sentido. Contrariamente aos resultados de estudos nacionais e internacionais, que encontraram a profissão docente associada a altos níveis de stress, os resultados deste estudo demonstram que os professores participantes neste estudo, apesar de exporem algumas áreas de insatisfação, caso da progressão na carreira, remuneração e autorrealização, enunciam, na globalidade níveis altos de satisfação indicativos de bem- estar.
Educational systems throughout the world are in a state of crisis. Increasingly the roles of school and teachers are being put in question, while governments attempt to promote solutions and bring about improvements through legislation. This dissertation attempts to identify the extent to which the effects of the changes thus implemented cause discontent and stress in teachers. The dissertation is divided into two parts, each with its respective methodology. The first part is theoretical, grounded in a literature review of the subject under study and based on four themes: The emerging paradigms and the teachers; the school as an organization; professionalism in times of change, and teacher distress. The second part sets out the empirical study which was conducted with the participation of eighty teachers at a secondary school in Vila Nova de Gaia. Through a questionnaire, the study aimed at investigating levels of teacher satisfaction with the school and performance of their professional duties, plus levels of experienced emotional effort and stress. The findings were in contrast to those of similar national and international studies that reported high levels of stress among teachers. Although this study revealed areas of dissatisfaction over issues such as career outlook, salary and self-actualization, on the whole findings suggested high levels of satisfaction and well-being.

Med globaliseringen har världen snabbt förändrats och designerns roll är inte längre lika självklar. Vi har tittat på hur man kan expandera begreppet design och utnyttja designerns kvalitéer inom nya områden. Magisterexamensarbetet "Design Thinking in Business Innovation" syftar till att undersöka hur man kan utnyttja designyrkets kreativa och innovativa processer inom affärsutveckling. I vårt exjobb har vi jobbat med ett av Storbritanniens ledande vitvaruföretag, GDHA, och har tillsammans med marknadsföringsstudenter från Stockholms Universitet tagit fram affärsstrategier för hur de kan agera på en framtida marknad. Kombinationen av kreativt tänkande och traditionell affärsutveckling genererade nya innovativa koncept med syfte att utifrån företagets förutsättningar stärka dess konkurrenskraft och skapa nya affärsmöjligheter. "Design Thinking in Business Innovation" resulterade i en ny arbetsmetod samt tre koncept som visualiserar resultatet av en kreativ affärsutvecklingsprocess. Dessa koncept sträckte sig från konventionell produktutveckling för differentiering till utveckling av nya försäljningskanaler samt en helt ny affärsidé som bygger vidare på GDHAs kärnverksamhet. Koncepten konkretiserades i form av en modell av ett kylskåpskoncept, samt tre stycken animerade kortfilmer.Som ett resultat av vårt exjobb har vi startat Remotel, ett design kontor som fokuserar på affärsutveckling genom användarorienterad research, kreativa processer och visuell kommunikation (mer info på www.remotel.se).
The world is undergoing change and the disintegration of the old economy is becoming evident. Production is moving to low cost countries and competition is growing fierce. In order to stay competitive, companies around the world recognises the need to become more innovative. In order to achieve this it is imperative to balance and compliment the linear business thinking that still rule the managerial body. Leading research in this area suggest that the key to innovation in business development lies within the creative thinking of the design field. This paper describes a joint master degree project that seeks to test these theories and develop methods and protocols to put them into practice. So the question is, what happens when one use industrial design as a tool to innovate business in the Creative Economy? The research group consists of four industrial designers from Konstfack, University of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm and four marketing students from School of Business, Stockholm University. During the project we applied action research and introspection in a case study where new business strategies where formulated for a live company as our empirical base. The process proved more difficult but also more rewarding than initially anticipated and resulted in several new potential strategies for the company while providing valuable insight and experience in interdisciplinary team work in this field. This paper presents suggestions to how design thinking and business thinking can be combined in the process of developing business strategies and accentuates some of the skills and qualities that inherently drive this process. The collaboration investigates the synergy between designers and business managers and illustrates the potential in combining these competences to find new ways to create, re-define and develop businesses in the creative economy.

Abstract In this research, we aim to look at the inner workings of Lead Generation and Add-on Sales through the eye of the people working directly with it. We do that with the objective of understanding what contributes positively to its success and what can cause problems or hinders it throughout all its stages from generating innovative ideas to implementing and selling them. We have chosen a qualitative method to conduct this study using an interpretive paradigm in performing our analysis of the findings. The data was collected by organizing interviews with participants that we selected in collaboration with Telco’s researchers. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and coded to form our primary data. In addition to that, we have used vast secondary data that was deemed to be relevant to the subject we were researching. After analyzing the results and findings, we look to answer the research questions, which concern the difficulties accompanying the innovative process between initiating an idea and implementing it as well as identifying the enablers and hindrances that arise during the operations of these innovative initiatives called Lead Generation and Add-on Sales. Once factors were identified, further analysis is performed to discuss if these factors are hindrances or enablers to the innovative initiatives at Telco. The frontline employees’ new business ideas (leads) or add-on sales are added as inputs to the ICT systems of this initiative and follow to subsequent phases until reach the commercialization phase in case they succeed, all the phases and processes occur through the ICT systems. In the context of this research, technology plays a key role and not only make the Lead Generation and Add-on sales processes viable but is also a factor that can either facilitate or impede potential leads or add-on sales to succeed. We put forward a model to better illustrate our findings and clarify the reasoning behind them. Despite the delimitations in terms of scope of this research, we believe that our findings and analysis can play a role in contributing to the understanding of factors that can be a barrier in the pursuit for innovation.

As cidades industriais ainda mantêm estruturas para uma dinâmica de produção e consumo em massa, que resultam em vários problemas, como desemprego, falta de moradia, engarrafamentos, poluição, doenças, violência e entre outros. Esta configuração industrial urbana já não está mais condizente com os princípios de criação de valor do novo paradigma do século XXI. A dinâmica do novo paradigma técnico-econômico exige que as cidades resgatem sua própria essência, que é a de aproximar pessoas para interagirem e compartilhar ideias e conhecimentos de modo que seja possível iniciar um novo ciclo de criação de riqueza. Para superar essa crise e entrar nesta nova dinâmica, as cidades do futuro devem encontrar trajetórias adequadas para se tornarem cidades inteligentes. No entanto, não há consenso sobre o que realmente torna uma cidade mais inteligente. O que é uma cidade inteligente? Quais são os elementos que podem aumentar a inteligência de uma cidade? O objetivo deste estudo é propor uma estrutura integrada para entender o processo de tornar as cidades mais inteligentes Para atingir este objetivo, foi realizado uma revisão sistemática da literatura para definição do conceito e também um estudo de casos múltiplos de projetos de cidades inteligentes em quatro cidades europeias (Amsterdã, Barcelona, Lisboa, Viena) onde alguns especialistas foram entrevistados. Os resultados mostraram que as cidades para se tornarem mais inteligentes devem integrar suas dimensões e elementos, a fim de oferecer alta qualidade de vida e um ambiente próspero para inovação e criatividade da maneira mais sustentável. Se uma cidade deseja iniciar esse processo de transformação, deve desenvolver projetos específicos que utilizem e melhorem sua configuração ambiental urbana, sua dinâmica tecno-econômica e sua estrutura sócio institucional, a fim de criar riqueza através de um abrangente processo de inovação. Portanto, o desafio de tornar uma cidade mais inteligente está em definir como articular adequadamente esses elementos direcionadores de cada dimensão, a fim de construir seu próprio ecossistema urbano de inovação.
Industrial cities still maintain structures for a mass production and consumption dynamics, which result in several issues such as unemployment, homeless, traffic jams, pollution, diseases, violence and so on. This urban industrial configuration no longer fits with the value creation principles of the new techno-economic paradigm. The dynamics of the new techno-economic paradigm demand that cities redeem their very essence in order to start a new cycle of wealth creation. In order to overcome this crisis and encompass this new dynamics, cities of the future must find suitable trajectories to become smart cities. However, there is no consensus about what really makes a city smarter. What is a smart city? What are the driving elements that can enhance the smartness of a city? The objective of this study is to propose an integrated framework in order to understand the process to make cities smarter To achieve this objective, it was realized a systematic literature review and a multiple case studies from smart cities projects in four European cities (Amsterdam, Barcelona, Lisbon, Vienna) where some experts were interviewed. Results show that cities to become smarter should integrate their dimensions and elements in order to offer high quality of life and a prosperous environment for innovation and creativity in the most sustainable way. If a city wants to start this process of transformation, it should develop some specific projects that that use and improve its enviro-urban configuration, its techno-economic dynamics and its socio-institutional structure in order to create wealth through a comprehensive innovation process. Therefore, the challenge to make a city smarter lies on defining how to articulate those driving elements in each dimension properly in order to build up its own urban innovation ecosystem.

As práticas de procurement tradicionais são caraterizadas por serem baseadas em papel, fragmentadas nos atos de compra, por permitirem aquisições sem procedimentos contratuais e pela ausência de monitorização e controlo da despesa pública. O e-procurement prossegue o objetivo de introduzir um maior rigor e celeridade em matéria de contratação pública tendo em conta a relevância da atividade administrativa contratualizada bem como da indispensabilidade de controlo da despesa pública. Mas para isso exige-se que a administração pública, através dos seus agentes de decisão e operacionais, esteja recetiva às mudanças que o e-procurement obriga e que tenha a visão estratégia harmonizada com o inovação que o termo electronic pretende introduzir nas práticas de procurement tradicionais, nomeadamente não acolher o e-procurement como apenas mais um projeto de tecnologia. A dissertação analisa a complexidade da inovação tecnológica que o eprocurement introduziu nas práticas de procurement tradicionais, através de um estudo à realidade autárquica portuguesa. A metodologia de investigação desenvolve-se através de um inquérito que permite construir um cenário de como o e-procurement foi acolhido nas Câmaras Municipais. Esta metodologia permite avaliar a evolução das Câmaras Municipais ao nível dos modelos e estratégias de inovação e impactos na própria estrutura organizacional. A dissertação sugere que os efeitos da inovação por Decreto mostraram-se muito relevantes a vários níveis. A administração pública local não revelou a capacidade necessária para construir respostas que permitam explorar favoravelmente o novo paradigma. A adoção de uma nova metodologia de trabalho revelou-se uma tarefa incompleta face aos desafios e hábitos que invadem as rotinas diárias das Câmaras Municipais; ABSTRACT: The e-procurement as a factor of innovation and decision-making support tool: the municipal paradigm. Traditional procurement practices are characterized by being based on paper, fragmented, and for allowing public purchases without contractual procedures and absence of monitoring of public expenditure. The e-procurement aims to introduce greater rigor and swiftness in the process of public procurement by taking into account the relevance of the contractualized administrative activity and the necessary control of public spending. For this to happen, it is required the the public administration to be receptive to changes required by the e-procurement process and the decision makers be tuned with the strategic innovation goal that the term electronic intends to introduce to the traditional procurement practices, particularly not understanding e-procurement as just another technology project. This study analyzes the complexity of the technological innovation occurred in traditional procurement practices of the Portuguese town halls as a result of the implementation of eprocurement. The study uses a survey specifically designed to capture the way eprocurement has been implemented by the town halls. This methodology allowsthe assessment of the organizations’ models, innovation strategies and impacts on organizational structure over time. The study suggests that the effects of innovation by law might be highly relevant at various levels. Local governments have not shown the ability to to fully exploit the advantages of the new paradigm. The adoption of new working methods has proven to be insufficient to face the challenges and habits pervading the daily routines of municipalities.

The traditional innovation model widely adopted by organizations during the whole 20 century, also known as closed innovation model, where research and development activities are conducted entirely inside organization´s frontiers and controls, has given place in recent years to the open innovation model, where organizations have realized both importance and benefits of using external ideas and knowledge as main part of their innovative process (CHESBROUGH, 2003a). So, this research used an explanatory single case study with integrated units of analysis method (YIN, 2010) in order to analyze the current organizational practices adherence to open innovation concepts inside a R&D center located in the Industrial District of Manaus. As part of the methodology, the primary data were collected through participant observations as well as through the use of questionnaire and interviews instruments. The secondary data were collected through documental research by analyzing organizational procedures, work instructions and tools. The data analysis followed an analytical strategy that counted with theoretical propositions as well as both standard combination and construction of explanation specific techniques, as proposed by Yin (2010). The use of analytical strategy and specific techniques favored the organizational innovative process mapping, as well as the identification of practices related to the open innovation concepts established by this process. Through this data analysis it was also possible to identify improvements applicable to the innovative process in order increase the adherence to open innovation practices, as well as practices considered important to the organization that are not enough applied to the innovative process. As a result, it was pointed out that the initial proposition stating that current organizational practices were adherent to the open innovation concepts was not confirmed. Such conclusion is due to the lack of organizational practices related to the open innovation model. Besides that, it was also possible to establish a set of suggestions to the company aiming to increase the organizational practices adherence to the open innovation concepts.
O modelo de inovação tradicional largamente adotado pelas empresas durante o século XX, também conhecido como modelo de inovação fechada, consiste na realização das atividades de pesquisa e desenvolvimento (P&D) inteiramente dentro das fronteiras e controles organizacionais. Este conceito, no entanto, vem dando lugar nos últimos anos a um modelo de inovação aberta, onde as empresas têm percebido a importância e os benefícios de considerar ideias e conhecimentos externos como parte integrante do seu processo inovativo (CHESBROUGH, 2003a). Desta forma, esta pesquisa utilizou como método um estudo de caso único de finalidade explanatória e unidades de análise integradas (YIN, 2010), cujo objetivo foi analisar as práticas organizacionais vigentes quanto à aderência ao conceito de inovação aberta em um Instituto de P&D localizado no Polo Industrial de Manaus. Como parte da metodologia de pesquisa, foram coletados os dados primários, através da observação participante, bem como utilizados os instrumentos de questionário e entrevistas. Já a coleta dos dados secundários se deu através da pesquisa documental, analisando-se os procedimentos, instruções de trabalho e ferramentas organizacionais. Para análise dos dados seguiu-se a estratégia analítica geral de contar com as proposições teóricas bem como se utilizou as técnicas específicas de combinação padrão e construção da explanação, conforme proposto por Yin (2010). O uso da estratégia analítica e técnicas específicas permitiram o mapeamento do processo de inovação da organização, bem como a identificação de práticas ligadas à inovação aberta estabelecida por este processo. Ainda através da análise foi possível identificar pontos de melhoria no processo inovativo necessários a uma maior aderência às práticas da inovação aberta, assim como práticas consideradas importantes para a organização, mas que não são utilizadas de forma suficiente no processo inovativo. Como conclusão, esta pesquisa evidenciou que a proposição inicial de que as práticas organizacionais vigentes eram aderentes aos conceitos da inovação aberta não foi confirmada. Tal conclusão deve-se ao fato de que não foram encontrados certos aspectos chaves pertinentes ao modelo de inovação aberta em prática na organização. Além disso, foi possível estabelecer uma série de sugestões à organização visando tornar suas práticas aderentes ao modelo da inovação aberta.

L’objectif de cette recherche est d’évaluer l’intégration universitaire des TIC dans l’enseignement des langues étrangères en Palestine : le cas des projets RUFO et QIF. En adoptant un cadre théorique constructiviste, cette étude est effectuée sur trois plans : micro (enseignants et apprenants), méso (dispositifs en ligne) et macro (décideurs de l’université et du Ministère de l’Education). Se basant sur une méthodologie qualitative et compréhensive de recherche, une démarche d’analyse de contenu du triple corpus de données (entretiens, extraits de cours, communication officielle des institutions) a été appliquée. Les résultats illustrent que les pratiques enseignantes actuelles n’ont pas connu d’évolution par suite de l’intégration des TIC ; l’usage de cette nouvelle modalité a amplifié les pratiques directives et traditionnelles existantes et a parfois entrainé une régression par rapport au mode de présentiel. La conclusion principale est qu’il n’est pas possible d’innover sans changer le paradigme éducatif et passer de celui de l'enseignement à celui de l'apprentissage. Le développement de la pédagogie universitaire nécessite la mise en ouvre d’une ingénierie éducative complexe et participative accompagnée par un pilotage bidirectionnel et transversal de l’innovation et une formation-accompagnement des acteurs à tous les niveaux
The objective of this research is to evaluate the integration of ICT in Palestinian universities for foreign language teaching: the case of RUFO and QIF projects. By adopting a constructivist theoretical approach, this study is conducted on three levels: micro (teachers and students), meso (on line courses) and macro (policy of the university and the Ministry of Education).The research is based on a qualitative and comprehensive methodology. A content analysis was applied to the triple collected data (interviews, excerpts from on line courses, official excerpts) The findings show that current teaching practices have not evolved as a result of the integration of ICT; the use of this new modality has amplified the existing traditional and directive practices; sometimes it has moved them backward. The main conclusion is that it is not possible to innovate without changing the educational paradigm and shifting from a teaching-centered model to a learning- centered one. Development of higher education requires the implementation of: a complex and cooperative educative engineering, a bidirectional and transversal management process of the innovation, and a training-coaching at all levels

As transformações promovidas por inovações tecnológicas no âmbito dos setores tradicionais da economia oferecem significativo avanço para a sociedade moderna. No entanto, boa parte dos projetos tecnológicos implementados desencadeiam novos níveis de produtividade que acabam por gerar uma legião de excluídos, por não conseguir incluir-se novamente na economia formal em ocupações que demandam nível de capacitação mais sofisticado. Assim, surge o desafio de elaborar novos modelos de desenvolvimento a fim de equalizar os efeitos de boa parte das inovações tecnológicas dos setores tradicionais da economia a partir de um enfoque de governança em tecnologias sociais associado à sustentabilidade. Portanto, esta dissertação buscou responder a seguinte questão: como a governança em tecnologias sociais pode ser associada à sustentabilidade a fim de constituir uma nova abordagem que possa servir de referência e também contribuir para reverter o quadro de populações em situação de risco social e econômico? A proposta desta pesquisa objetivou a elaboração de uma abordagem de governança em tecnologias sociais, considerando a perspectiva multinível, no sentido de tornar mais eficaz o processo de incluir uma legião de pessoas que carece de novas oportunidades dentro de um cenário tecnológico de ordem social, no qual possam desenvolver vocações regionais, existentes ou novas, e tecnologias sociais para estabelecer um novo paradigma ligado à sustentabilidade envolvendo economias vulneráveis. Para atingir esse objetivo, foram propostas duas etapas, envolvendo dados secundários e dados primários. A primeira foi a realização de uma pesquisa exploratória, de natureza qualitativa, a partir de um referencial teórico inicial envolvendo conceitos sob a ótica da governança, da sustentabilidade e dos impactos a partir da adoção de governança em tecnologias sociais. Assim, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com dois grupos: i) instituições que atuam com governança em tecnologias sociais e ii) instituições que formulam políticas públicas em tecnologias sociais. Essa etapa teve a finalidade de analisar iniciativas e modelos desenvolvidos no Brasil sob o enfoque de governança em tecnologias sociais, a fim de identificar os fatores que influenciam positivamente projetos regionais, os fatores que impedem o avanço de projetos e propostas para ações no âmbito nacional voltadas ao desenvolvimento de tecnologias sociais que gerem impactos sustentáveis nas esferas do desenvolvimento social, econômico e tecnológico. A segunda etapa consistiu na análise dos resultados obtidos na pesquisa exploratória, a fim de organizá-los para propor a abordagem de governança em tecnologias sociais. Essa sistemática observou os conceitos presentes na governança para o desenvolvimento de melhores políticas e estratégias públicas, desempenhando importante papel para a melhoria da qualidade de vida de populações vulneráveis. A perspectiva de governança para a construção de modelos que permitam o avanço de tecnologias sociais é uma proposta nova, relevante, desafiadora, que oferece muitas oportunidades para inclusão social e se faz presente como um diferencial imprescindível para o sucesso da identificação de propostas sólidas para o avanço da pesquisa sobre o tema.
The transformations promoted by technological innovations within traditional sectors of the economy offer significant breakthrough for modern society. However, much of the implemented technological projects unleash new levels of productivity that generate a legion of excluded people that fails to return to the formal economy in occupations that require a more sophisticated level of training. Thus, arises the challenge to develop new models of development in order to equalize the impacts regarding much of the technological innovations in the traditional sectors of the economy from a governance approach on social technologies associated with sustainability. Therefore, this work aimed to answer the question: how governance in social technologies can be linked to sustainability in order to constitute a new approach that can serve as a reference and also help to reverse the situation of the population exposed to social and economic risk? The purpose of this research aimed at the development of a governance approach to social technologies, considering the multilevel perspective, in order to make more effective the process of including a legion of people that lacks new opportunities within a technological scenario of social order, in which can develop regional, existing or new, vocations, and social technologies to establish a new paradigm associated to sustainability involving vulnerable economies. To achieve this goal, two steps have been proposed involving secondary and primary data. The first was to perform a qualitative, exploratory research, from an initial theoretical background involving concepts from the perspective of governance, sustainability, and the impact from the adoption of governance in social technologies. Thus, semi-structured interviews were conducted with two groups: i) institutions working with governance in social technologies and ii) institutions formulating public policies in social technologies. This step sought to analyze initiatives and models developed in Brazil, under the governance focus on social technologies, in order to identify the factors that positively influence regional projects, the factors that interfere in the progress of projects and proposals for action at the national level aimed at developing social technologies that generate sustainable impacts in the spheres of social, economic and technological developments. The second step consisted in the analysis of the results obtained from the exploratory research in order to organize them to propose the governance approach to social technologies. This approach followed the concepts in governance to develop better public policies and strategies, playing an important role in improving the quality of life of vulnerable populations. The governance perspective for building models which can foster social technologies is a new, relevant, challenging proposal, offering many opportunities for social inclusion and making it present as an essential advantage for the successful identification of solid proposals for the research advance on the subject.

E-payment paradigm in the context of fighting corruption and increasing transparency at the public-sector authority’s level is becoming more important than ever especially for Eastern Europe. The present research will address how an electronic payment system is affecting the diffusion of innovation among online public services, settling the challenges at the government level, providing solutions for diminishing the money laundering in the country and all other associated problems. Diffusion of innovations theory had been investigated by many scholars in different industries and countries. The research implication is to generate general knowledge by fulfilling the literature gap related to electronic payment systems in the public sector and diffusion of innovations. The research aim is to provide (1) an extensive literature review to gain familiarity principally on the diffusion of innovation theory, secondary on government electronic payment systems and cashless societies; (2) collect, explore and analyze empirical evidence related to the perceived attributes of diffusion of innovations theory and the rate of adoption of e-payment system designed for public services from the perspective of consumers, public service providers, and payment operators; (3) answer the research questions by the aid of the diffusion of innovation theory, and measure the rates of adoption of public e-payment systems by using an case study approach, the researchers analyzed the case of Moldova and the Governmental Payment Gateway MPay, one of the initiatives launched by the Public Institution e-Government Center. The interpretivism research paradigm was adopted for the research, and an exploratory case study methodology is implemented to gain insights, familiarity with the subject, and acquire more knowledge in the concepts and theoretical frameworks that are related to the research problem and question.

Esta tese teve como objetivo compreender impactos e processos de mudança relacionados com o aconselhamento de carreira a estudantes universitários. Desenvolveu-se um modelo de atendimento construtivista narrativo, fundamentado no Paradigma Life-Design, com duração média de dez sessões individuais em periodicidade semanal. O primeiro estudo investigou se a intervenção seria capaz de promover impactos em adaptabilidade de carreira, sentido de vida e nas narrativas autobiográficas dos clientes (em reflexão autobiográfica e em valência afetiva das narrativas), valendo-se de um delineamento quase-experimental. O segundo e o terceiro estudos buscaram compreender a relação entre os impactos do atendimento com os processos de mudança narrativa, avaliados com o Modelo dos Momentos de Inovação nas sessões, em dois estudos de caso com características diferenciadas. Os resultados do primeiro estudo indicaram que a intervenção foi efetiva na promoção de recursos de adaptabilidade de preocupação, controle, curiosidade e confiança, bem como em dimensões de desenvolvimento de carreira com aproximação conceitual à adaptabilidade, como identidade profissional, decisão de carreira, planejamento de carreira e autoeficácia profissional. Ainda, os participantes da intervenção demonstraram aumento significativo na dimensão de presença de sentido de vida e diminuição na saliência afetiva negativa na forma como narravam as suas histórias de vida. Nenhuma mudança significativa foi constatada em relação ao grupo de comparação, formado por estudantes que não participaram de qualquer atendimento no mesmo período. Os estudos de caso possibilitaram compreender os impactos de forma integrada aos processos de mudança, evidenciando que desfechos positivos do aconselhamento de carreira estiveram associados a padrões de momentos de inovação de complexificação crescente ao longo do processo, e pela presença de momentos de inovação de reflexão sobre a mudança e de reconceitualização. Esses dois tipos de inovação se apresentaram de forma diferenciada em cada um dos casos, que também se diferenciaram quanto aos impactos do processo em reflexão autobiográfica. Abordam-se as conexões entre o processo de reflexão autobiográfica e esses tipos de momentos de inovação. Além disso, estabelecem-se relações entre as diferentes características dos clientes quanto às suas demandas e etapas de desenvolvimento psicossocial com os impactos e processos de mudança no atendimento. Por fim, são traçadas implicações para a teoria, a pesquisa e a prática do aconselhamento de carreira.
This dissertation aimed to understand outcomes and change processes associated with a career counseling intervention targeted at university students. A constructivist narrative model of career counseling, based on Life-Design Paradigm, was developed and delivered individually, in approximately 10 sessions, once a week. The first study investigated the outcomes of the intervention in career adaptability, meaning in life and clients’ autobiographical narratives (in autobiographical reasoning and emotional valence), using a quasi-experimental design. The second and the third studies aimed to understand the relation between the outcomes of the intervention and narrative change processes, assessed through the innovative moments model in the sessions. These studies were conducted with two clients with different characteristics. Results from the first study showed that the intervention was effective in promoting career adaptability resources of concern, control, curiosity and confidence, as well as career development dimensions that have conceptual proximity to adaptability, as professional identity, career decision, career planning and professional self-efficacy. Participants also demonstrated a significant increase in the dimension of presence of meaning in life, and a significant decrease in negative emotional salience used to narrate their life stories. No significant change was observed in the comparison group, constituted by students that were not participating in interventions at the same period. The case studies contributed to an integrated understanding of outcomes and processes of change, showing that positive outcomes in career counseling are associated with a pattern of progressive complexification of innovative moments during the process, and with the presence of reflection about change and reconceptualization innovative moments. These types of innovation differed from one case to the other, and different outcomes related to autobiographical reasoning were also observed. Connections between the process of autobiographical reasoning and these types of innovative moments are addressed. In addition, relations between client’s demands and psychosocial developmental characteristics with the outcomes and processes of change during career counseling are delineated. Finally, implications for theory, research and intervention are outlined.

A presente tese trata da inserção da economia do Rio Grande do Sul no atual paradigma tecnoeconômico, sob uma perspectiva neoschumpeteriana/evolucionária. A hipótese assumida é que diante de um esforço tecnológico limitado na criação de vantagens competitiva dinâmicas no Brasil, com políticas de C,T&I pouco articuladas, emerge a maior necessidade de esforços estaduais no que tange a capacitação tecnológica das empresas do RS, mas que, no entanto, a indústria do Estado não tem apresentado esforços inovativos suficientes para compensar esse fraco dinamismo nacional, além de uma incipiente política estadual de inovação. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa assume, como de suma relevância, uma visão amparada nos sistemas de inovação e uma política estadual de C,T&I ativa, fortalecendo o processo inovativo. Usando como pano de fundo a economia brasileira e seu desempenho recente diante do paradigma das tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TICs) - com a maior importância dos processos de aprendizado, de produção de conhecimento, cooperação e de inovação -, o Rio Grande do Sul, por sua vez, apesar de ser um Estado que se destaca no cenário nacional, não vem logrando um desempenho satisfatório na produção de produtos de alta tecnologia, ligados ao atual paradigma tecnoeconômico. Os dados da PINTEC para o Rio Grande do Sul demonstram os insuficientes esforços inovativos, com pouca importância e reduzidos dispêndios em atividades internas de P&D, utilizando-se de poucos mecanismos de aprendizado e com insuficientes relações de cooperação. Além disso, corrobora substancialmente com a tese, os reduzidos gastos do governo estadual em C&T, pois enquanto outros Estados da Região Sul tem apresentado um aumento nos gastos em C&T, ao longo dos anos 2000, o RS está indo na direção contrária, abdicando de esforços que poderiam contribuir significativamente para o aumento da participação da indústria gaúcha em setores de alta tecnologia, denotando uma inserção deficiente no atual paradigma tecnoeconômico das TICs. Conclui-se que esse conjunto de fatores indica a manutenção de uma estrutura de produção vigente, não amparada numa visão sistêmica do processo inovativo e na construção de um sistema estadual de inovação, com uma política de C,T&I insuficiente no RS, diante dos requisitos impostos pelo atual paradigma das TICs.
This thesis aims to situate the economy of Rio Grande do Sul state in the current techno-economical paradigm, a neo-Schumpeterian/evolutionary approach. The assumption made is in front of limited technological efforts in the creation of dynamics competitive advantages in Brazil, with C, I & T policies not articulated, the states must have greater efforts regarding the technological abilities of their companies, but the companies of Rio Grande do Sul have not given sufficient innovative efforts to compensate this weak national dynamics as well as its incipient state innovation policy. In this sense, this research assumes great relevance in a vision anchored in an innovation system and T&I state policies active, able to strengthen the innovative process. Using the Brazilian economy and its recent performance on the paradigm of information and communication technologies (ICTs) as a backdrop – with greater importance to the learning process of knowledge production, cooperation and innovation – the Rio Grande do Sul state, despite of being a state that standouts on the national scene, is not achieving a satisfactory performance in the production of high technology products linked to the current techno-economical paradigm. The PINTEC data for Rio Grande do Sul demonstrate inadequate innovative efforts, with little importance and reduced spending on internal R & D, using a few learning mechanisms and insufficient cooperation relations. Moreover, these data corroborates substantially with the thesis, the reduced spending of state government in S & T, because while other states in the Southern Region has shown an increase in spending on S & T over the year 2000, the RS is going in the opposite direction, abdicating efforts that could contribute significantly to the increased participation of industry of the state in high-tech sectors, indicating a poor inclusion in the current economical paradigm of ICT. It concludes that this combination of factors indicates the maintenance of a structure of current production, not supported in a systemic view of the innovative process and in building a statewide system of innovation with a policy, I & T Insufficient RS, before the requirements imposed by the current paradigm of ICT.

The inability of the public sector to satisfy social needs - like poverty alleviation, social inclusion of disadvantaged groups, unemployment, health and education - are redefining the relationship between the governments and their citizens by making the latter play an active role as the provider of the welfare state. Citizens through their entrepreneurial activity have been pulled to the third sector leading to the emergence of new organizational forms like social enterprises and social franchises. The main focus of this research study is the investigation of the new interorganizational format of social franchising which has received ‘scunt’ research attention up to now. The behaviour of actors and organizations in the social economy sector are influenced by the properties and dynamics of elements coming from the political, social, organizational and individual level. We have adopted a systems approach of social network theory. A grounded theory named Social Franchise Model (SoFraM) has been induced from an exploratory empirical mixed method study conducted at various stages and from different sources during a time frame of thirty months. Primary data were raised through six case studies in the UK and Greece, more than 143 interviews with social entrepreneurs and various stakeholders and three action research projects which were the subject of analytic induction supported by archival analysis of secondary data coming from governmental, European Commission, local authority and other sources. Our findings indicate that the formation, growth and success of social franchises is heavily shaped through: firstly, law, regulations, and incentives introduced by centralized or formal institutions- both supranational and national- as well as their driving logics; secondly, the relational and structural embeddedness of actors in networks and the social norms that subsequently emerge; thirdly, the characteristics of the individual social entrepreneurship profile; and finally elements of the social innovation model adopted. The properties of the system of informal or decentralised institutions of networks have been further explored through a pilot quantitative study on mainstream franchises in the UK and Greece. An online self-administered questionnaire has been created based on our conceptual framework of the Franchise Network Model (FNM) drawn from existing scales from literature. The findings indicate that relational and structural embeddedness of actors and organizations in networks determine choices of formation, partner selection, governance mode and the subsequent performance of franchise systems.

As inovações tecnológicas são introduzidas pelas empresas no mercado de produtos e serviços, e as estratégias para a geração dessas inovações concentram-se nas atividades de Pesquisa, Desenvolvimento (P&D) e Marketing. Na saúde, a incorporação dessas inovações tem contribuído para o aumento nas demandas por serviços públicos, tecnologias e insumos no sistema de saúde. A partir da metodologia de natureza quantitativa e qualitativa, descritiva e exploratória, busca-se, neste estudo, responder às seguintes indagações: Quais as direções tomadas pelo desenvolvimento tecnológico, ao longo dos últimos 13 anos, no que se refere aos medicamentos antidiabéticos genéricos utilizados para o controle do diabetes? A mídia impressa dirige ideologicamente o consumidor na produção de necessidade de consumo de produtos e serviços para a prevenção e controle do diabetes? Quais são os fatores que condicionam o acesso dos pacientes insulino-dependentes ao glicosímetro? O presente estudo tem o objetivo Analisar, entre 1998 e 2012, a partir do estudo de paradigmas e trajetórias tecnológicas, como a mídia convence o consumidor na produção de necessidades de saúde e os condicionantes do acesso glicosímetro. Tem sido um grande desafio para os sistemas de saúde no mundo cuidar da população com alta prevalência de diabetes. É preciso articular as políticas de saúde e de ciência e tecnologia (C&T) às políticas industrial e comercial pode reduzir a dependência tecnológica na área de saúde, e possibilitar a pesquisa e desenvolvimento de bens e serviços para atender às necessidades de saúde da população brasileira. Nessa direção, a comunicação pode ser utilizada como uma das estratégias de disseminação de modelo de atenção, baseado na promoção da saúde frente ao modelo hegemônico biomédico. É preciso garantir o acesso aos insumos imprescindíveis para o cuidado do diabetes e assegurar que os recursos públicos sejam utilizados a partir dos princípios de universalidade e integralidade do SUS.

The current study is a user-centred enquiry into how wellness-related personal informatics (PI) systems can be more effectively designed to better promote lasting behaviour change and sustained wellbeing in the context of the changing health paradigm. Until recently, the Western biomedical model with its disease focus has been effective in delivering health care; however, this paradigm does not efficiently support a system in crises - the contemporary health care system which is confronted with complex challenges of modern lifestyle diseases and behavioural disorders. Enabled by the technological revolution, a Systems Medicine model - a preventative, personalised, predictive and participatory (P4) approach - is emerging and PI systems play a significant role in realising this pre-clinical, patient-centric, behaviour-focussed shift in health care. This viewpoint paper argues that design strategies applied in PI systems to promote behaviour change play a vital role in supporting health outcomes, specifically, persuasive and mindful user experience (UX) strategies. By applying a phenomenographic research methodology, a user-centred approach is taken to understand qualitatively different ways in which PI systems (and their inherent design strategies) are experienced by users, to inform more intuitive design of PI systems that balance behaviour change strategies to support more lasting shifts and sustainable states of wellbeing. Drawing together ideas from systems medicine, complexity theory, persuasive and mindful design approaches in conjunction with phenomenography, this study aims to understand experiential nuances to offer implications for the future design of health care through PI systems. The theory built through the research process is applied in a prototype design, which is presented as an example of a PI system design that balances persuasive and mindful strategies and aims to promote lasting behaviour change and enduring states of wellbeing more effectively.

Pretende-se, neste estudo, discutir como os poetas palacianos do Quatrocentos português usaram a tradição e a inovaram com elementos de inventividade e criatividade, de modo a serem denominados precursores de futuras estéticas literárias. Tomar-se-á por paradigma o poeta e coudel-mor Fernão da Silveira. Uma das principais personagens da nobreza portuguesa, Silveira destaca-se por extensa produção poética, bem como pelo rigor com que exerceu sua função política. Uma vez que a crítica vem apontando o Cancioneiro Geral de Garcia de Resende como repositório de futuros movimentos literários, o objetivo é examinar, através de Fernão da Silveira, os meios de que se serviram os poetas do fim do medievo português no cultivo de formas e temas caros às escolas renascentista e barroca e, mais tarde, à arte literária concretista e experimentalista.
This study intends to discuss how the Portuguese Court poets of the XVth. century made use of tradition and innovated it with elements such as inventiviness and creativeness in order to be considered as forerunners of future literary aesthetics. For this purpose, the poet and master of the royal stud farm Fernão da Silveira has been taken as a paradigm. One of the most influential persons of the Portuguese nobility, Silveira distinguishes himself for his wide poetic production and for the rigour he performed his political role. Since criticism considers Garcia de Resende\'s Cancioneiro Geral a repository of future literary moviments, the purpose is to examine, through Fernão da Silveira\'s poetic production, the means that could have led the poets of the end of the Portuguese medieval era to cultivate forms and themes dear to the Renaissance and Barroque aesthetics and, later, to the concrete and experimentalist literary arts.

Estudo de um projeto de inclusão social para catadores de lixo reciclável, o Pimp my Carroça. Ao partir da análise da exclusão social e da afirmação da identidade cidadã, discute o fenômeno da injustiça social, do consumismo, e o papel dos projetos de inclusão social num contexto de crise ecológica, em que busca desvendar o tipo de inclusão pretendida para os catadores beneficiados pelo Pimp my Carroça. Faz a análise da dinâmica informacional do projeto, fundamentada pelo mapeamento das interações entre os atores, possibilitando revelar os modos de disseminação de sua dimensão simbólica e de mobilização da sociedade civil. Somada à categorização das visões de ambos os grupos, catadores e idealizadores do Pimp, demonstra-se que o projeto lida com a contradição de buscar incluir os catadores de recicláveis no mundo do consumismo e da desigualdade social, o qual transforma o lixo em meio de vida para muitos indivíduos e que deseja combater. O estudo conclui que se faz necessário um pacto entre sociedade civil e Estado sobre a revisão das formas de utilização de recursos naturais, mas que a efetiva solução está no alcance da justiça social.
This is a study of a project for social insertion of dustbin men called Pimp my Carroça. It analyzes the phenomena of social exclusion and the validation of citizenship to enable the discussion of social injustice, consumerism, and the role of social insertion projects in a context of ecological crisis, trying to unveil the type of insertion Pimp my Carroça aspires for the dustbin men it benefits. It analyzes informational dynamics of the project based on the mapping of Pimp´s actors’ interactions to reveal how the project´s symbolic dimension is disseminated and civil society is mobilized around its cause. Added to the categorization of the view of both Pimp´s beneficiary and benefiters this work shows that the project deals with the contradiction of willing to include the refuse collectors in a world of consumerism and social inequality the project fights against, where garbage is turned into a mean of living for many individuals. It concludes that the revision of the use of natural resources is only possible if comes up from a pact between civil society and the State, although effective solution relies on the reaching of social justice.

Idag talar forskare om en utveckling av digitaliseringen där allt är uppkopplat via ”Internet of Things” (IoT), eller på svenska ”Sakernas Internet”, som innebär att produkter förses med sensorer och inbyggda system. Dessa kan sedan kopplas upp mot Internet så att de olika produkterna kan kommunicera med sin omgivning. Även om forskare är oense om när detta nya paradigm kommer bryta ut, är de överens om att ett användande av IoT på rätt sätt medför fördelar då IoT optimerar och effektiviserar arbetsprocesser i företags värdekedjor. Vidare menar forskare att framgång inte längre är en fråga om teknologi, utan istället en fråga om transformationen hos företag samt vilka affärsmodeller som kan ta till vara på och skapa lönsamhet av denna utveckling. Tidigare forskning om affärsmodeller har fokuserat på innehållsmässiga aspekter i affärsmodellen och kommit fram med konceptuella modeller. En väletablerad sådan är canvas-modellen. Hur canvas-modellen kan användas i praktiken är däremot mindre utforskat. Syftet med denna uppsats har således varit att undersöka hur canvas-modellen fungerar i praktiken genom att utföra en fallstudie på Veolia Nordics nutida affärsmodell samt framtida visioner med hänsyn till Internet of Things (IoT). Uppsatsens undersökning visar att implementeringen av canvas-modellen på Veolias affärsmodell har begränsningar. I dagens ständigt föränderliga och konkurrensutsatta affärsmiljö krävs det att företag söker nya möjligheter samt utvärderar dessa mot affärssammanhang för att hitta en optimal passform. Detta innebär att företag, såsom Veolia, bör se affärsmodellen som en process som kräver progressiva förbättringar, snarare än en statisk bild över nutida data. Vidare anses canvas- modellen vara lämpligare att använda av företag som arbetar med produkter, snarare än tjänster. För att använda modellen som ett verktyg för strategiska beslut i ett företag som Veolia, är det lämpligt att den utvidgas till att karaktärisera fler byggstenar ur ett transformativt perspektiv. I utvecklingen av IoT skulle modellen exempelvis kunna anpassas utefter de särdrag inom paradigmet som forskare nämner i form av säkerhetsåtgärder och ansvarsfrågor då dessa är väsentliga att reflektera över vid beslutsfattande av strategiska initiativ. Sammanfattningsvis har studien visat vikten och nyttan av affärsmodeller samt behovet av att anpassa dessa till externa händelser såsom det nya paradigmet IoT.
Many researchers are currently discussing a development of the digitalization, where everything is connected via Internet of Things (IoT), implying that products are equipped with sensors and embedded systems. These sensors can be connected to Internet in order to communicate with their environment. Although researchers disagree on when this new paradigm will happen, they agree that the usage of IoT entails advantages for companies’ value chains, as it optimizes work processes. Furthermore, researchers argues that success not longer is a question of technology, but rather a question of the transformation of companies, and which business models that could take advantage and generate profit from this development. Previous studies regarding business models are focused on substance of the business model, which have resulted in conceptual models. One well-established model is the canvas-model. The usage of the canvas-model in practice is however less explored. The purpose of this study was thus to examine how the canvas-model works in practice by conducting a case study on the contemporary business model of Veolia Nordic. Future visions with respect to IoT have also been examined. The result of the study implies that the canvas-model is inadequate when implementing it on the business model of Veolia. The business environment is constantly changing and competitive, and businesses need to find innovative possibilities and evaluate them against the business context in order to find optimal solutions. This entails that companies, such as Veolia, should look at the business model as a process that requires progressive improvement, rather than a static image of contemporary data. Furthermore, the canvas- model is considered to be better suited for companies focusing on products, rather than services. To use the model as a tool for strategic decisions in a company like Veolia, it is appropriate that the canvas-model is extended to characterize more building blocks from a transformative perspective. When looking at the development of IoT, the model could be further adapted along the specificities within the paradigm, for example along the terms of security and liability issues, as these are important to consider when making decisions about strategic initiatives. This study has shown the importance of business models and the need to adapt these to external occurrences, such as the new paradigm IoT.

Cette recherche propose d'étudier l'émergence d‘une industrie suite à une innovation de rupture. Afin de participer aux débats actuels autour de sa mesure, nous avons adopté une approche dynamique en retenant trois niveaux d‘analyse, c‘est-à-dire niveau macro, puis réseau et enfin, niveau organisationnel. A partir d‘une analyse de réseaux de l‘industrie du véhicule autonome de 2011 à 2019, nos résultats mettent en évidence le rôle des réseaux de relations interorganisationnelles autour d‘activités technologiques clefs permettant la réalisation de véhicules autonomes, comme mesure de l‘émergence et de la structuration d‘une industrie. L‘intensité de ces relations permettent également de distinguer ces deux phases souvent confondues, d‘émergence et de structuration d‘une industrie et de proposer une analyse dynamique et non a posteriori de l‘émergence
The present doctoral thesis aims to examine industry emergence caused by disruptive innovation. We adopted a dynamic approach to industry emergence to nourish debates around its assessment through a three-level funnel approach adopted: macro, network, and organizational levels. Based on a social network analysis of the Autonomous vehicles industry from 2011 to 2019, our findings allow us to assess the ex-ante emergence of an industry. The present thesis notably suggests an interesting way to measure industry emergence through interorganizational relationship networks building around Key Technological Activities required for the Autonomous vehicles industry to become a reality and to distinguish the emergence from the structuration of an industry

O objetivo principal desta dissertação é analisar as tecnologias de aplicativos da Web 2.0, desde uma perspectivas evolucionária, e dos seus impactos nas empresas em nível global. Desta forma, para poder entender o seu nascimento, essência e importância econômica para as empresas, se tomou como base teórica o conceito evolucionário de revoluções tecnológicas e paradigmas tecno-econômicos, o qual serviu como modelo para interpretar a atual revolução das tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TIC) e seu conseqüente paradigma tecnoeconômico, e na qual se constatou que este grupo de tecnologias surgiu no período de tempo atual de dito paradigma conhecido como “intervalo de reacomodação” (turning point). Por outro lado, se ressaltou que uma das principais características no processo de difusão de cada paradigma tecno-econômico é o seu impacto na organização das empresas. Desta forma, a teoria evolucionária se apresentou como a abordagem adequada para entender tanto o caráter da empresa atual, entendida esta em termos do conjunto de suas rotinas (conhecimentos e habilidades), quanto as suas principais inovações organizacionais como respostas aos desafios apresentados pela própria difusão do paradigma tecno-econômico atual das TIC, na qual o acumulo permanente de novos conhecimentos e informações, isto é, de rotinas dinâmicas se tornam variáveis chaves para o próprio processo permanente de inovação, vital para as empresas. Diante da crescente utilização das tecnologias de aplicativos da Web 2.0 entre as empresas a nível mundial como meios potenciais para atingir esses objetivos, o presente trabalho analisou o seu potencial para gerar de forma mais fluida novos conhecimentos e informações, isto é rotinas dinâmicas, tanto dentro da organização das empresas como na interação com os seus consumidores, refletindo-se, assim, no aumento de inovações permanentes de novos produtos e serviços.
The main objective of this dissertation is to analyze the technologies of Web 2.0 applications, from an evolutionary perspective, and its impacts on businesses globally. Thus, in order to understand its birth, nature and economic importance for companies, it was taken as theoretical basis the evolutionary concept of technological revolutions and technoeconomic paradigms, which served as a model to interpret the current revolution in information and communication technologies (ICT) and its consequent techno-economic paradigm, in which it was found that this group of technologies originated in the current time of said paradigm known as turning point. On the other hand, it was emphasized that a key feature in the process of diffusion of each techno-economic paradigm is its impact on business organization. Thus, evolutionary theory appeared as the appropriate approach to understand both the character of the current company, which is understood in terms of its set of routines (knowledge and skills), as its main organizational innovations as answers to the challenges presented by the own diffusion of the current ICT techno-economic paradigm, in which the continuous accumulation of new knowledge and information, that is, dynamic routines, become key variables to the self process of continuous innovation, vital for companies. With the increasing use of Web 2.0 application technologies among the companies in the world as a potential means to achieve these goals, this study examined its potential to generate more fluidly new knowledge and information, that is dynamic routines, both within the business organizations and in their interaction with their consumers, which was reflected in the increase of permanent innovations of new products and services.

The research outlined in this thesis focuses on the effects of implementation and use of mobile payments as experienced by older adults aged 55-75, as qualitatively examined through research interviewees (hereafter participants of this study) made up of individuals with varying cultural and technological backgrounds, who are acclimated to Greece’s culture and have lived within the country for at least a decade. Their own perception and reception of the practice allows for a more comprehensive look into the practical application of the technology within the country. No empirical studies are available on the aforementioned topic, despite the high importance and need for such study. Therefore, this research is carried out through a literature review. It then analyzes two models namely technology acceptance model (TAM) and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model. It applies a phenomenological research method and provides us with a more concise, contextualized background into the widespread application of m-payment and m-commerce within the country. This research contributes new knowledge to m-payment and m-commerce through theoretical and empirical research and benefits the interpretation of a recently emerging phenomenon. The research results are useful to various groups associated with mpayments and m-commerce. Future research directions concerning this phenomenon involve the reception and enhancement of m-payment methods by older adults.

Sur la base d’une étude historique des rapports entre les cycles techno-économiques du système mondial et le processus de transformation économique, politique et idéologique d’un pays périphérique comme l’Équateur, cette recherche présente une analyse critique sur le processus de développement du champ technoscientifique de ce pays et le projet de modernisation postnéolibéral mis en place par son gouvernement entre 2007-2017. L’exposition est organisée en deux parties. La première analyse les rapports entre les transformations techno-économiques mondiales et les cycles économiques et politiques locaux ; les rapports entre ces cycles, les vagues de modernisation du système d’éducation supérieure équatorien et la reproduction des élites locales ; et enfin, les rapports entre ces deux derniers et le processus de développement scientifique, technologique et industriel du pays. La deuxième partie est consacrée à l'étude en détail du dernier de ces cycles, caractérisé par la mise en place du projet postnéolibéral de modernisation technoscientifique. Cette étude se focalise particulièrement sur trois projets : la réforme de l’éducation supérieure, le programme de bourses d’étude à l’étranger et le projet de construction de Yachay, une ville dédiée à la science, à la technologie et à l’innovation. Les résultats de ces analyses dévoilent le caractère idéologique de ces projets, conçus et dirigés par un même réseau d’intellectuels et financés par l’essor des exportations de matières premières qui a accompagné cette phase ascendante du cycle périphérique. Enfermés dans leur quête idéologique d’un modèle de développement alternatif et les contraintes imposées par les processus de transformation du système mondial, ces acteurs ont fini par produire un projet de modernisation contradictoire basé sur une abstraction empirique adaptée à leurs besoins de légitimation politique. La fin de l’essor économique a dévoilé les limites de ce projet idéologique dont les résultats concrets sont une plus lourde bureaucratie, le gaspillage des ressources publiques et l’accumulation de pouvoir. Nous suggérons que ce résultat est un effet du décalage entre les cycles de transformation à la périphérie et au centre du système mondial et du processus de reconfiguration global liée à la montée de l’influence chinoise et au déploiement de la dernière vague de transformations techno-économiques. Cette recherchée s’inscrit ainsi dans la lignée de réflexion sur les transformations du système mondial
Based on a historical study of the relationship between the techno-economic cycles of the global system and the economic, political and ideological transformations in Ecuador, this research presents a critical analysis of the development process of the technoscientific field in this country and the post-neoliberal modernization project implemented by its government between 2007-2017. The thesis has two parts. The first one develops an analysis on three levels: the relationships between the global techno-economic cycles and the political and economic transformations in Ecuador; the relationships between these transformations, the waves of modernization of the Ecuadorian higher education system and the reproduction of local elites; and the relationship between the latter and the scientific, technological and industrial development of the country. The second part presents a detailed study of the last cycle, characterized by the implementation of the post-neoliberal project of technoscientific modernization. This study focuses, particularly, on three projects: the higher education reform, the scholarship program for studies abroad and the Yachay technopole project. These analysis results reveal the ideological character of these projects, designed and directed by the same network of intellectuals and financed by the rise of commodity exports which accompanied this upward phase of the peripheral cycle. Trapped in their ideological quest for an alternative development model and the constraints imposed by the transformation processes of the global system, these actors have finally produced a contradictory modernization project based on an empirical abstraction adapted to their needs for political legitimization. The end of the economic upswing has unveiled the limits of this ideological project whose concrete results are a heavier bureaucracy, waste of public resources and the accumulation of power. We suggest that this result is an effect of the three interrelated processes: the gap between the transformation cycles at the periphery and at the center of the global system, the global reconfiguration linked to the rise of Chinese influence and the deployment of the latest techno-economic wave of innovation. This research aims thus to contribute to the debate on the historical transformations of the global system

This study examines the emerging notion of learning partnerships. As the study of such partnerships is a nascent research field, no single definition has yet emerged in the literature. However, within an uncertain and rapidly changing global context, two strategic initiatives have been identified which will support individuals, communities and organisations in their transition to a knowledge-based economy whilst building capacity for change and renewal. These two strategies are fostering learning communities/regions/towns and developing learning partnerships between multiple stakeholders. The term "learning partnership" has appeared in a wide variety of literatures including those of adult learning, management, social science and education. Working papers and emerging case reports identify a diversity of applications and a range of operational models or configurations that link multiple stakeholders. Learning partnerships have been associated with vocational education and training, innovation and research, lifelong learning, organisational learning and knowledge cultivation. These literatures reveal a paucity of Australian research to explain how multiple stakeholders form and develop these configurations, particularly in the Queensland context. The purpose of this study is to build deeper understanding of the meaning of a learning partnership in the Australian and (more precisely) the Queensland context. A working definition of a learning partnership, adopted as the basis for the research, indicates a strategy designed to foster continuous learning, collaboration, innovation and renewal in response to the demands of the knowledge-based economy and knowledge and learning societies. The research focuses on organisational arrangements in order for the researcher to gain deeper understanding from the key stakeholders in their work environments. Three diverse situations were selected for detailed exploration of their issues, relationships, activities, processes and working knowledge. With a view to contributing to emerging theory, an organisational case study methodology was adopted to identify and explore the nature of the relationships and issues confronting the key stakeholders in three Queensland-based learning partnerships. An interpretive theoretical framework draws on the social theory of symbolic interactionism and the "systems thinking" of General Systems Theory. An interpretivist perspective influenced the case study research strategy and guided data collection, analysis and reporting. Within the case studies, data collection methods included observations, informal meetings, synergetic focus groups, semi-structured interviews, diary notes, researcher memos and documents. From these multiple data sources, the researcher was able to assemble three case files. The inductive process for within-case analysis for the case reports, and later, cross-case analysis, integrated as a form of constant comparison technique, was used as a basis for presenting findings. These findings are reported as three separate "in progress" models to address three interrelated research questions. The case reports explain complex and interconnected organisational arrangements - evolving, adapting and responding to internal and external tensions. While there is considerable activity which could be regarded as representing learning partnerships, there is no cohesive policy framework to support such partnerships, and much ambiguity, "muddy" definitions and unclear terminology. It appears that a "new breed" of knowledge-worker is emerging - linking, networking, interacting, exchanging - to work across organisational intersections. The study shows that like "herding cats", co-ordinating and managing the inter relationships at the organisational intersection take time, resources, vision, processes for interaction, individual willingness and "in-kind" support. Whilst there is opportunity for linking disparate groups to cross-fertilise ideas, working knowledge, and information, and there is the potential to cultivate a knowledge and learning ecosystem (a fertile compost heap for knowledge generation and an innovative learning system) - "intellectual horsepower" - such configurations may also derail, realign or stagnate. It is individual stakeholders who form the relationships, interact, share ideas, and build networks, and it is the individual who maintains the relationships, engages in the process and learns from the experience. Therein lies a paradox between the strength of diversity of the collective (synergies) and their weakness as the relationships may be compromised by a single individual who withdraws or transfers. Drawing on a computing analogy, this could be akin to "corruption" in a system which may not be sufficiently robust to tolerate ambiguity, or a system that is too inflexible to survive threats while maintaining the momentum to adapt and renew. On the basis of this research it would appear that a more robust or resilient paradigm is emerging with interconnected, blurred boundaries and much "talking and thinking" about more sustainable futures. The study identifies these as indicative of wider social and economic changes. The thesis proposes three conceptual models as particularly useful in interpreting these "shifting systems and shifting paradigms": the concentric, the centripetal, and the plutonic.

The analysis of an industrial cluster has become the main discussion to explain the firm agglomerations success worldwide in the last decade. This discussion has given a bigger dimension in economic terms, especially about the strategic management of the local productive chains. This paper aims to contribute to the theoric development of the theme by the proposition of an industrial cluster typology method considering that the set of local variables related to the firms characteristics are essential for the strengthening of the interfirms relationship and consequently their performance. The theoretical basis of this study are the types of clusters found in literature and the research object are the footwear firms (CPCF) from Franca S. Paulo state. The data analysis used was the descriptive statistics tecnicques as well as multivaried exploratory methods. From the theoretical view this study enabled the identification of multiple characacteristics derived from different cluster typologies within the same productive chain. Which extended the perpective about the strategic role played by the local cooperation and also offered the possibility of the managers and institution representatives reflect on the governance principles adopted in collective actions.
A análise de Cluster industrial tornou-se na última década o centro da discussão para explicar o sucesso de aglomerados de empresas em diversas regiões mundiais. Isso trouxe ao tema maior dimensão em termos econômicos, especialmente sobre a gestão estratégica de cadeia produtiva local. Esta tese tem objetivo de contribuir para o desenvolvimento teórico do tema por meio da proposição de um método de tipificação de Cluster industrial, considerando que o conjunto de variáveis locais, relacionadas às características dos clusters, são críticas para o fortalecimento das relações inter-firmas, e consequentemente para o desempenho dessas empresas. O soporte teórico desse trabalho são os tipos de Clusters existentes na literatura, e o objeto de pesquisa são as empresas do setor calçadista de Franca (CPCF), interior do Estado de São Paulo. A estratégia de análise dos dados utilizada baseou-se em técnicas estatísticas descritivas e métodos estatísticos exploratórios multivariados. Do ponto de vista teórico, o estudo permitiu identificar a existência de múltiplas características provenientes de diferentes tipologias de clusters presentes em uma mesma cadeia produtiva, o que ampliou a perspectiva sobre o papel estratégico das cooperações locais em termos do seu melhor aproveitamento, além de oferecer a possibilidade dos empresários e representantes das instituições refletirem sobre os princípios de governança adotados na gestão das ações coletivas da cadeia produtiva. Além da possibilidade do estudo ser aplicado a outras regiões onde ocorra a aglomeração de empresas que formam clusters.
