On the link between urban location and the involvement of knowledge intensive business services firms in collaboration networks

2013

Knowledge intensive business services firms can play a key role in modern economies by linking localized collaboration networks to global knowledge flows, and by actively serving in support of knowledge diffusion across institutional and sectoral divides. The extent to which they do is dependent on the markets, partners and human resources available locally. This paper uses the unique establishment-level innovation data available in Norway to investigate whether location in urban labour market regions influences the geographical scope of collaborative linkages maintained within and outside the realm of clients. It proceeds to consider whether the diversity of partner types used locally, dom…

Linking scientific and practical knowledge in innovation systems

2011

New research indicates that firms combining the science-based STI (Science, Technology, Innovation) and the experience-based DUI (Doing, Using, Interacting) modes of innovation are more efficient when it comes to improving innovation capacity and competitiveness. With regard to innovation policy, the STI mode calls for a supply driven policy, typically aimed to commercialise research results. The DUI mode suggests a demand driven policy approach, such as supporting the development of new products or services to specific markets. This paper analyses how the two types of innovation policy and the two innovation modes can be combined in regional innovation systems. The analysis builds on studi…

Developing a Conceptual Framework for Investigating Communication Supporting Community Resilience

2015

In crisis management, cooperation within the response network is seen as crucial. Usually, this network refers to authorities and nongovernmental organizations, such as the Red Cross. However, the authors argue that to improve societal resilience one should take a broader overview of the actors involved in crisis preparedness and mitigation, and also include the public. With this in mind, the role of communication is scrutinized and a conceptual framework developed as a starting point for further investigation into how communication may be developed to strengthen a community approach to crisis management that includes citizen groups in the broader response network. A model is presented alon…

The empirical data is obtained by interviews with public sector employees and interpreted using deconstructive analysis presented by David Boje. Based on the research interviews the strong reliance on rationality…

NEURAL CONTROL OF GAIT IN PEOPLE WITH HAEMOPHILIC ARTHROPATHY

2022

La hemofilia es un trastorno hemorrágico causado por una deficiencia de los factores VIII o IX de la coagulación. Las personas con hemofilia grave pueden tener hemorragias espontáneas o hemorragias en respuesta a traumatismos menores; la mayoría de los eventos ocurren en las articulaciones y los músculos. La manifestación clínica más frecuente es la artropatía hemofílica, que resulta del sangrado intraarticular repetitivo y de la membrana sinovial inflamada, lo que puede resultar en dolor crónico y deterioro articular. El objetivo general de mi tesis fue investigar el control neural de la marcha en personas con artropatía hemofílica (PCAH). La hipótesis de mi tesis fue que control neural de…

Responsabilità civile per volo internazionale "cancellato" e giurisdizione italiana

2020

Il regime della responsabilità civile del vettore aereo è stato, ed è tuttora, oggetto di grande attenzione, specie in quell’ottica di favor per il passeggero/contraente debole che permea l’intera disciplina del settore dei trasporti, non solo aerei. Due questioni di grande rilevanza pratica, oltre che teorica, sono quelle concernenti l’indennità compensativa ed il risarcimento dei danni per la soppressione del volo e la correlativa problematica dell’àmbito della giurisdizione, con particolare riferimento al luogo della conclusione del contratto, ove vengono in rilievo i rapporti tra il Regolamento Bruxelles I bis (Reg. UE n. 1215/2012), sulla competenza giurisdizionale, il riconoscimento e…

Cognitive Mimetics for AI Ethics : Tacit Knowledge, Action Ontologies and Problem Restructuring

2020

Ethics and ethical information processing are an important problem for AI development. It is important for self-evident reasons, but also challenging in its’ implications and should be welcomed by designers and developers as an interesting technical challenge. This article explores AI ethics as a design problem and lays out how cognitive mimetics could be used a method for its design. AI ethics is conceptualized as a problem of implementation on the one hand, and as a problem of ethical contents on the other. From the viewpoint of human information processing, ethics becomes a special case of ethical information processing - one that has deep implications in terms of AI abilities and inform…

“I Am Your Fan; Bookmarked!” Members’ Identification Development in Founder-Led Online Communities

2019

In this study, we present the findings from an inductive and interpretive case study of a founder-led online community (OC), exploring how members’ identification develops within the community over time. Using a longitudinal study of an OC that was founded by a reputable individual, it is shown that members were first attracted to the OC through their affective and cognitive identification with the founder; however, over time, they developed identification through social interaction with other members. The findings show that this transformation was enabled by the founder’s communication behavior, which not only led to inspired and engaged members but also to the emergence of new leaders who…
