Retos en la internacionalización y supervivencia de los nuevos emprendimientos manufactureros
2015
El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la relación entre la orientación internacional y la supervivencia de empresas manufactureras de reciente creación. Para ello se estudió una muestra de 2.975 nuevos emprendimientos constituidos durante el período 2001-2010 en la industria textil-confección de España. Metodológicamente, se han empleado modelos de duración mediante regresiones de Cox, que modelizan el riesgo relativo asociado con una variable en función del tiempo transcurrido hasta que sucede el evento. Los principales resultados evidencian que la internacionalización de los nuevos emprendimientos es una condición necesaria aunque no suficiente para sobrevivir en una industria globaliza…
Evaluation of asset replacement strategies considering economic cycles: lessons from the machinery rental business
2015
Contains fulltext : 144492.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) In businesses with heavy capital investments, the effective management of assets is crucial, in particular in the fleet rental business where assets are the major source of revenues. One important question in this regard concerns the replacement of used assets and the purchase of new assets. Thus, the objective of this study is to evaluate performance effects of asset replacement strategies. In order to maximise net cash flow of a rental company for construction machinery, a range of scenarios investigating the timing and nature of policies for replacing the fleet are analysed. Simulation findings are then discussed to gene…

Software Renting in the Era of Cloud Computing
2012
In the new era of computing, software can be sold and delivered as a cloud service, and software renting has become as a strategic tool to compete in the market. Software renting has several advantages from the customer's point of view. However, for software providers it is challenging to ensure a profitable revenue stream when a license fee is replaced by a periodic rental fee. In this study, software renting was found to help the case firms to differentiate themselves from competitors; it also increased their competitive advantage by making the software available for a larger customer group. However, the negotiating power of larger customers impacted on software pricing, rental agreements…

It can be concluded that customers’ needs were the main driving force to the selection of the most appropriate pricing and revenue model in the market. peerReviewed
Innovation as a driver of internationalization in the software industry
2013
Innovation and internationalization are two important factors for growth. This study analyzes whether innovativeness has an effect on the internationalization of software firms, and if so, how strong this effect is. Innovation and internationalization have rarely been studied together, with research tending to focus more on the relationship between innovations and growth. However, internationalization is a key prerequisite for growth for companies operating in small domestic markets. This paper analyzes the innovativeness and internationalization of firms, using data from the Software Industry Survey conducted in Finland. Since the speed of firm growth and internationalization are dependent…
Operator Revenue Analysis for Device-to-Device Communications Overlaying Cellular Network
2018
Device-to-device (D2D) communications has recently gathered significant research interest due to its efficient utilization of already depleting wireless spectrum. In this article, we considered a scenario where D2D users communicate in the presence of cellular users in an overlay network setup. In order to analyze the revenue of service providers in monetary terms, the paper provides exact expressions of operator profit for both D2D and cellular users. More specifically, we take into account different network parameters including user density, transmit power and channel variations to understand their impact on the total revenue of the operator. Finally, we derive the balancing value of freq…
Genius ja vastuu : Kantin kautta uuteen taiteilijakäsitykseen
2008
Tutkielmani käsittelee taiteilijakäsitystä. Väitän että taiteilijakäsityksemme on vanhahtava, eikä vastaa tarpeitamme Avaan nykyistä käsitystämme tarkastelemalla sen juuria valistuksessa ja romantiikassa. Modernin subjektin ja yhteiskunnan syntyyn ajoittunut katkos taidefilosofiassa johti geniuksen, neron korostumiseen ja yhdistämiseen taiteilijuuteen. Tässä muutoksessa oleellisessa roolissa oli Immanuel Kantin filosofia ja erityisesti hänen estetiikan pääteoksensa Kritik der Urteilskraft, Arvostelukyvyn kritiikki, joka onkin pääasiallinen lähteeni geniusfilosofiaan. Kantin ajatukset vaikuttivat romantiikan nerokäsityksiin, joista taas kuuluu yllättävän paljon kaikuja 2000-luvun tavassa käs…
Tango Suomessa
2012
Tangomusiikki ilmiöineen on keskeinen osa suomalaista musiikkikulttuuria. Suomeen tango rantautui jo vuonna 1913, mutta varsinaiseen roihuun tango ilmiönä leimahti 1950- ja 1960-luvuilla. Suomalainen tango on leimautunut perinnekulttuuriksi, joka ei ole kuollut, vaikka sitä ajoittain onkin oltu valmiita hautaamaan: tuoreus on sen vahvuus. Tässä kirjassa joukko musiikintutkijoita lähestyy tangoa Suomessa useista näkökulmista: historiallisesta, kulttuurisesta, musiikkianalyyttisestä, taloudellisesta ja paikallisesta. Näin kirja pyrkii luomaan kokonaisvaltaista kuvaa suomalaisesta tangokulttuurista ja sen sidoksista suomalaisuuteen. Kirja on ensimmäinen kokonaisvaltainen esitys aiheesta ja tar…
ANALYSIS OF CORRELATION BETWEEN TAX REVENUES AND OTHER ECONOMIC INDICATORS IN EUROPEAN UNION MEMBER STATES
2014
This paper aims to identify the presence or absence of a connection between some factors that influence the evolution of tax revenue in the EU and to quantify its intensity using Pearson correlation coefficient. Testing the bivariate correlation between tax revenues and a range of 15 causal factors lead to a division of variables that determine the evolution of tax revenues into three categories: significant factors such as GDP, net national income per capita, gross added value, gross salary, current account balance, less significant factors of tax revenue such as the employment rate, public expenditures, public debt, and foreign direct investment, and non-factors of tax revenues such as un…
