Productive Efficiency of Decanters with Short and Variable Dynamic Pressure Cones
2003
Abstract This paper presents the results of experimental trials carried out on third-generation, variable dynamic pressure cone decanters to assess machine performance and adjust the process parameters for optimum extraction yield. The results obtained led to the following conclusions: the regulation of the differential velocity screw/bowl allows a better performance of the decanter at low dilutions of the olive paste; it is possible to obtain high efficiency at a low dilution of the olive paste achieving a higher minor compounds content and the more advanced system of regulation leads to better results according to the variations of the ratio between liquid and solid phases, thus optimisin…
Essays on Digitalization and Firm Performance
2023
Esta tesis doctoral analiza cómo el uso de las tecnologías digitales (TD) afecta las decisiones de las empresas en el comercio internacional y el empleo. La rápida expansión de estas tecnologías ofrece oportunidades para reducir costes asociados a la distancia física, lo que permite a las empresas llegar a más clientes y ampliar sus mercados. Sin embargo, el hecho de que las TD también puedan ser sustitutas de la mano de obra, remplazando a los humanos en sus trabajos y aumentando potencialmente el desempleo, suscita preocupación. Así pues, estos dos temas serán abordados en la tesis. Primer, los Capítulos 1 y 2 se centrarán en el impacto de la digitalización en el comercio internacional. M…
ICT demand behaviour: An international comparison
2009
This study aims to provide some empirical explanations for the gaps in ICT diffusion between industrialized countries, especially European countries vis-à-vis the United States. The panel data cover eleven OECD countries: Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. These annual macroeconomic data span the 1981-2005 period.The analysis provides some original results: (i) the impact on ICT diffusion of the level of education and market rigidities has changed over time. The correlation of ICT diffusion, positive with the level of education and negative with market rigidities, increased over time (in absolute terms)…
Onnistuminen työelämän tiimeissä
2018
In digitalized contemporary working life virtual teams have become increasingly ubiquitous. Teams are seen as platforms for synergy, productiveness, and efficacy. However, manifold organizational environments, technological developments, and extended working possibilities—as well as conceptual, methodological, and theoretical features—make successful teams complex to outline and examine. The focus of this doctoral dissertation is in examining working-life teams’ success in the times of digitalization and communication technology expansion. The study embraces a qualitative and inductive research agenda. This dissertation comprises four articles, including one systematic literature review and…
Corporate Governance and Productivity in Nigerian Manufacturing Industries
2013
Given the role of manufacturing industries as the engine of economic growth and development on one hand and the current downturn in industrial production, this study was designed to explore the economic rejuvenating capacity of corporate governance. It also examined the individual and collective roles of management structure and corporate governance in enhanced industrial productivity in Nigeria. One hundred and nineteen manufacturing firms were selected by systematic random sampling from the 471 firms existing in Oyo state, the industrial hub of southwestern Nigeria. The actual participants were selected by purposive sampling from top management, middle level and junior staff cadres who mu…
Maahanmuuttajien yritystoiminnan merkitys Suomen työllisyyden ja tuottavuuden yritysdynamiikalle
2019
Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan maahanmuuttajataustaisten yritysten reaalisen arvonlisäyksen, työllisyyden ja työn tuottavuuden kasvua Suomessa vuosina 2007–2016. Analyysissä on käytetty Tilastokeskuksen ns. FLOWNaineistoa, joka mahdollistaa yritysten, niiden omistajien ja työntekijöiden rekisteripohjaisten tietojen yhdistämisen. Maahanmuuttajataustaisten yritysten osuus yrityskannasta on ollut muutaman prosentin ja osuus yrityssektorin työvoimasta yhden prosentin luokkaa, joten niiden vaikutus Suomen talouden ja työllisyyden kasvuun on pakostakin rajallinen. Maahanmuuttajataustaisten yritysten reaalisen arvonlisäyksen kasvu on kuitenkin ollut selvästi muita yritysryhmiä nopeampaa. Työpaikkojen…
