MIGLIORAMENTO TECNOLOGICO-PRESTAZIONALE DI UN COMPONENTE INNOVATIVO PER L’INVOLUCRO EDILIZIO - PERFOMANCE IMPROVEMENT OF AN INNOVATIVE BUILDING COMPO…
2016
L’articolo illustra l’attività di ricerca che gli autori, cofounder della SBskin. Smart Building Skin s.r.l., start up innovativa e spin off accademico dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo, stanno conducendo al fine di ottimizzare le performance energetiche di un componente innovativo per facciate e coperture di edifici (dagli stessi brevettato) in grado di ridurre i consumi energetici e di produrre energia pulita dal sole. L’attività che qui si illustra è stata finalizzata all’ottimizzazione del design dei sub-componenti che contribuiscono alla realizzazione dei pannelli traslucidi multifunzionali (realizzati con vetromattoni innovativi, preassemblati a secco e precompressi) ed alla scel…
Diffusion of Software Technology Innovations in the Global Context
2002
This study examines how software businesses are acquiring new software technology innovations (STIs) in rapidly changing globalized business environment characterized by rapidly shortening software technology life cycles, changing customer demands, and intense competition. It was executed through both theoretical and empirical investigations and analyses. It describes one case company as an example of the diffusion of STI and develops a framework for the diffusion of software technology innovation. The research findings are useful for both further research and industrial settings. peerReviewed
E-supply Chain for International Technology Transfer
2001
This research (a review of current literature and empirical research) suggests that in order to make the e-supply chain for technology transfer of a Western country company (i.e., technology supplier) more efficient and effective than the conventional technology development and delivery approach, it should be considered as a process whose phases include planning, implementation and evaluation. This paper focuses only on the e-supply chain for technology package development for international technology transfer, and does not deal with all the aspects of IT-supported technology transfer process. peerReviewed
The new face of university–business cooperation in Finland
2016
This paper analyses the development of university-business cooperation (UBC) in Finland in the context of the University Reform Act of 2009, drawing on the experience of four universities: Aalto University, University of Jyvaskyla, University of Turku, and Lappeenranta University of Technology. Six UBC dimensions are examined: institutional context, stakeholders, motivations, facilitators/inhibitors, benefits, and drawbacks. We find that UBC, while a relatively recent process, is growing fast in dynamic local innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems. The University Act of 2009 had an uneven effect on the six UBC dimensions, with the most visible impact being manifested on motivations. Aal…
Educación XX1 : revista de la Facultad de Educación
2016
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave también en inglés Se indaga sobre las evidencias en torno a cómo se reciben en los centros escolares los equipamientos tecnológicos (el KidSmart en este caso). Se asume, a modo de hipótesis, que el grado de asimilación por parte de los miembros de la organización de la tecnología transferida, es un factor determinante del grado de uso. El trabajo de campo se realiza en los centros de educación infantil que participan en el proyecto «El Rincón del Ratón». Mediante grabaciones de clase, encuestas y observaciones se ha tratado de obtener evidencias sobre el problema de investigación. Los primeros resultados ponen de manifi…
