StartCards — A method for early-stage software startups

2023

Publisher Copyright: © 2023 The Author(s) Context: Software startups are important drivers of economy on a global scale, and have become associated with innovation and high growth. However, the overwhelming majority of startups ends in failure. Many of these startup failures ultimately stem from software engineering issues, and requirements engineering (RE) ones in particular. Despite the emphasis placed on the importance of RE activities in the startup context, many startups continue to develop software without a clear market or customer, having never had meaningful contact with their would-be customer. Objective: We develop a method aimed at early-stage startups that is intended to help s…

Cumulative inertia or cumulative stress? Migration behaviour of Finnish graduates

2009

An interesting yet largely unstudied question regarding labour migration behaviour and residence duration is whether migration becomes more or less likely over time. This paper analyses the determinants of residence duration for Finnish graduates. Our results affirm the importance of cumulative inertia as a determinant of migration. The longer a person stays in a region, the smaller are the hazard rates of migration. However, for those graduates who moved to a new region during their year of graduation, the propensity for repeat migration is particularly high during their first three years of residence.

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on tarkastella, miten liikearvon arvo määräytyy ja onko liikearvo arvorelevanttia. Kohdeyritysten taloudellisten tietojen ja niiden analysoinnin pohjalta on tarkoituksena selvittää, onko liikearvon ja yrityksen markkina-arvon välillä yhteys sekä miten liikearvon määrä on vaihdellut kohdeyritysten taseissa vuosina 2007-2014. Tavoitteena on myös selvittää, miten markkinat suhtautuvat liikearvon arvonalentumiskirjauksiin. Tutkimusmenetelmä on kvantitatiivinen tutkimus, jossa on myös ominaispiirteitä field-tutkimuksesta. Tutkimusaineisto koostuu kirjallisuuden lisäksi kohdeyritysten tilinpäätöstiedoista sekä muusta taloudellisesta informaatiosta, kuten pörssikurssitiedoi…

COVID-19-pandemia : mitä se merkitsee ihmisten liikkuvuudelle ja siihen liittyvälle eriarvoisuudelle?

2021

Olemme eläneet outoja aikoja jo yli vuoden. Yli vuosi sitten maat ympäri maailmaa alkoivat asettaa erilaisia rajoituksia COVID-19-pandemian hillitsemiseksi. Ihmisten liikkuvuuden rajoittaminen on ollut yksi merkittävin tapa pyrkiä hallitsemaan viruksen leviämistä. Rajoitusten seurauksena monien ihmisten arkielämä muuttui täysin. Samalla monet ovat joutuneet todistamaan viruksen aiheuttamien sairauksien ja kuolemien suurta määrää – jotkut kauempaa, jotkut lähempää. Me Liikkeessä yli rajojen-blogin toimittajat olemme työssämme maahanmuuttoon liittyvien aiheiden tiimoilta havainneet, miten pandemia on vaikuttanut erityisesti ihmisten liikkuvuuteen ja siihen liittyviin ilmiöihin, kuten ylirajai…

The effects of two-way communication and chat service usage on consumer attitudes in the e-commerce retailing sector

2018

In e-commerce retailing (e-retailing), where competitors are only one click away and prices are easy to compare, providing superior customer service and reciprocal communication via a company’s website are important aspects of attracting and retaining customers. One increasingly popular solution to improve customer service is a “live chat” interface that allows consumers to have real-time conversations online with customer service agents. As the literature on the impacts of real-time communication via live chat is currently very limited, this study develops and tests a model that demonstrates the moderating effects of a chat service on the relationship between two-way communication (i.e., a…

Identifying the Sales Patterns of Online Stores with Time Series Clustering

2018

Electronic commerce, especially in the business-to-consumer (B2C) context, has for years been a popular research topic in information systems (IS). However, the prior research on the topic has traditionally been dominated by the consumer focus instead of the business focus of online stores. For example, whereas various segmentations exist for online consumers based on their purchase behaviour, no such segmentations have been developed for online stores based on their sales patterns. In this study, our objective is to address this gap in prior research by identifying the most typical sales patterns of online stores operating in the B2C context. By using self-organising maps (SOM) to analyse …
