Costes del uso del agua como variable determinante en la toma de decisiones
2020
El agua es un recurso básico en la producción de diferentes tipos de bienes y servicios, como los alimentos, la energía y la fabricación. La demanda mundial de agua está influenciada en gran medida por el crecimiento de la población, la urbanización, las políticas de seguridad alimentaria y energética y los procesos macroeconómicos, como la globalización del comercio y el aumento del consumo. Para 2050, se proyecta que la demanda mundial de agua aumentará en un 55%, principalmente debido a las crecientes demandas de fabricación, generación de electricidad y uso doméstico (WWAP, 2015).

Exploring the relationships between tangible and intangible resources in a learning alliance dynamics: comment on the paper by Kapmeier
2008
Kapmeier (2008) focuses his research on common learning and firms’ opportunistic behaviour in learning alliances. A strategic alliance, as clearly stated by Gulati (1998, p. 293) is a voluntary arrangement between firms to exchange and share knowledge as well as resources with the intent of developing processes, products or services. This is a relevant topic not only for those firms that operate in industries characterized typically by high RD Larsson et al., 1998). Furthermore, this literature essentially takes a static view and it often neglects the postformation dynamics of alliances (Koza and Lewin, 2000; Das and Teng, 2001). Some key questions not yet profoundly investigated are: how c…
Searching Silk Fabrics by Images Leveraging on Knowledge Graph and Domain Expert Rules
2021
The production of European silk textile is an endangered intangible cultural heritage. Digital tools can nowadays be developed to help preserving it, or even to make it more accessible for the public and the fashion industry. In this paper, we propose an image-based retrieval tool that leverages on a knowledge graph describing the silk textile production as well as rules formulated by experts of this domain. Out of several possible similarity scenarios, two have proven to work best and have been integrated into an exploratory search engine.

Tyrimas parodė, kad inovatyvių bendrovių vertė yra didesnė, didesnės ir jos pačios. Nustatyta, kad didesnė bendrovės vertė pasiekiama, jei nematerialių išteklių dalis viršija 1 %. Taikant koreliaciją ir regresinę analizę, nustatyta, kad inovacijos yra svarbi organizacijos vertės determinantė, organizacijos dydis yra silpnesnis veiksnys, o augimas – pats silpniausias veiksnys.

Europe’s Peat Fire: Intangible Heritage and the Crusades for Identity
2019
Dissonances of ethnic nationalism have in Western cultural policy long been concealed by the universalist discourses of the international treaties on material heritage protection, as framed by the expansive heritage conservation apparatuses of the European nation states. Originally inspired by the 19th century romantic spirit of conservation, they became in the 20th century part of the modern, state-apparatus. Yet parallel with the European enlargements and new kinds of memory debates on the Holocaust and postcolonialism, these authorized heritage regimes have received more and more competition from a transnational counter-discourse on intangible cultural heritage. Like the earlier transfor…
