The efficiency of LiDAR HMLS scanning in monitoring forest structure parameters: implications for sustainable forest management

2022

PurposeThis article aims to compare the LiDAR handheld mobile laser scanner (HMLS) scans with traditional survey methods, as the tree gauge and the hypsometer, to study the efficiency of the new technology in relation to the accuracy of structural forest attributes estimation useful to support a sustainable forest management.Design/methodology/approachA case study was carried out in a high forest located in Tuscany (Italy), by considering 5 forest types, in 20 different survey plots. A comparative analysis between two survey methods will be shown in order to verify the potential limits and the viability of the LiDAR HMLS in the forest field.FindingsThis research demonstrates that LiDAR HMLS…

Designing a Multi‐Sided Platform business model assessment framework: a Dynamic Performance Management perspective

2019

The purpose of this research is to offer an assessment framework to validate multisided platform business models. For this aim, we propose a systemic perspective based on the dynamic performance management approach. This approach is particularly effective to make explicit the net of relationships between internal and external strategic resources, the value creation and capture drivers, and the way such drivers influence platform performances. The developed multisided platform business model assessment framework has been tested by using a success and a failure case, respectively, Airbnb and Take Eat Easy. Research originality results from the combination of multisided platform value creation…

Fostering entrepreneurial learning processes through Dynamic Start-up business model simulators

2018

Abstract Entrepreneurial learning is a critical process in realizing the success or failure of a new business venture, as it implies that would-be entrepreneurs acquire those strategic management competencies required to start and manage a new business. Actually, statistics on start-up survival/failure rate reveal that the main reasons for failure are related to a lack of entrepreneurial competencies of start-uppers. This paper argues that combining Business Model representation schemas with System Dynamics modelling may support potential start-up entrepreneurs in learning and experimenting how to turn a business idea into a real firm. System Dynamics modelling is a methodology that allows …

Open educational resources repositories literature review – Towards a comprehensive quality approaches framework

2015

Display Omitted A comprehensive literature review on learning object repositories (LOR) quality approaches.Most cited quality approaches are "peer reviews" and "recommendation systems".User-generated, collaborative, quality instruments are favored for their sustainability.Main result is a Quality approach framework for LOR design. Today, Open Educational Resources (OER) are commonly stored, used, adapted, remixed and shared within Learning object repositories (LORs) which have recently started expanding their design to support collaborative teaching and learning. As numbers of OER available freely keep on growing, many LORs struggle to find sustainable business models and get the users' att…

Fostering growth patterns of SMEs through business model innovation. A tailored dynamic business modelling approach

2021

Abstract In the contemporary complex and fast-changing markets, there is persistent pressure for Small-and-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to engage in business model innovation to promptly meet customer expectations and successfully compete for survival. In the last decade, multiple approaches to business model development and innovation have been explored. However, they have been primarily designed for large-sized companies, while SMEs display distinctive organizational attributes. Thus, SMEs require a tailored approach to design, experiment and innovate their business models, in order to frame the specific complexity of their value creation processes. This paper aims to explore how a Dynamic B…

Turning a business idea into a real business through an entrepreneurial learning approach based on dynamic start-up business model simulators

2017

In this paper we argue that the use of System Dynamics modelling applied to Business Model design and representation may result in an entrepreneurial learning approach to support potential entrepreneurs in exploring and learn how a business operates and reacts according to alternative strategic choices. As such, a Dynamic Business Modelling approach provides useful insights to start-up entrepreneurs learning processes by capturing and explaining how critical Business Model elements interact to produce enduring competitive advantages over time.

Modelli innovativi di lending value chain degli intermediari bancari: implicazioni finanziarie ed economico-aziendali.

2011

L’articolo mette al centro dell’analisi la catena del valore del lending business nell’economia degli intermediari bancari, quale momento qualificante e decisivo per lo studio dei processi di de-integrazione verticale nel settore dell’intermediazione creditizia. Il modello innovativo di business dell’intermediazione creditizia, denominato originate and distribute, ha contribuito a trasformare quasi “geneticamente” l’intermediario bancario, con rilevanti effetti di instabilità sistemica, che hanno interessato la struttura e il funzionamento dei sistemi finanziari.
