Abstract:
Dynamic capabilities are described as a company's ability to change, and given the changing environment. The dynamic capabilities perspective is in its efforts to explain competitive advantage in a dynamic environment. Currently, dynamic capabilities have been implemented in various aspects, including, marketing, production, resources, and also accounting. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the application of Dynamic Capability Theory, viewed from an accounting perspective. This research method is descriptive analysis. The analysis, found that dynamic capability theory, through an accounting perspective, is related to the fields of sharia accounting, government accounting, accounting information systems, financial accounting and corporate governance. The analysis carried out descriptively is a limitation of this study. Therefore, it is recommended that in the future, it can be done by interviewing stakeholders.

Abstract:
When Amartya Sen defends his capability theory of well-being he contrasts it with the utility theory advocated by the classical utilitarians, including John Stuart Mill. Yet a closer examination of the two theories reveals that they are much more similar than they appear. Each theory can be interpreted in either a subjective or an objective way. When both are interpreted subjectively the differences between them are slight, and likewise for the objective interpretations. Finally, whatever differences may remain are less important than they might seem, since the two theories are developed by Sen and Mill for different purposes and are in that sense not genuine rivals.

Abstract:
The existence of variation has been a major problem within industry since the early days of the industrial revolution and perhaps even earlier. The fact that two parts not ever will be identical, forces every organisation to find a strategy for how to master variation. Process capability studies, a method designed to judge whether a process is capable or not, often plays an important part in such a strategy.The concept of process capability studies has received both positive and negative criticism during the last decade. For instance, the supporters of process capability studies emphasise the importance of using the method to identify improvement priorities to be focused in the overall improvement process within an organisation.However, as all methods, process capability studies has its limitations. Actually, it is not principally the method as such that has been criticised, but rather the measures of capability used when conducting process capability studies, the so called process capability indices. All existing process capability indices have some weaknesses, even the most sophisticated indices have relatively poor statistical properties which might lead the user to make incorrect decisions, even if most theoretical aspects of how to conduct process capability studies are known by the user. The use of process capability indices is for instance partly based on the assumption that the process output is normally distributed, a condition that is often not fulfilled in practice, where it is common that the process output is more or less skewed.This thesis focuses on process capability studies in both theory and practice. In part 1 of the thesis some theoretical aspects of how to conduct process capability studies are identified and then the adherence to these aspects within Swedish industry is investigated. This study reveals that there are certain gaps between how process capability studies are supposed to be conducted according to theory and the way they actually are carried out in practice. The study also tries to explain why these gaps exist, by analysing common obstacles when implementing and conducting process capability studies.In part 2, a simulation study focusing on the effects of skewness on estimates of some process capability indices belonging to the family of indices named Cis presented. The effects of skewness are studied in three different cases, one incapable case, one case just capable and one very capable case. In all cases, four lognormal distributions with different skewness are used. The results from the simulation study indicate that the effect of skewness is relatively systematic, and therefore there are some hope that future investigations might use these results when formulating some practical solution to the problem of how to use process capability indices when the process monitored has a skewly distributed output.Finally, the results are summarised and discussed and some suggestions for future research are given.

Najrani, Majed. "The effect of change capability, learning capability and shared leadership on organizational agility." Thesis, Pepperdine University, 2016. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10141724.

Full text
Abstract:
<p> Organizational agility represents a new field of organizational study that is not well examined. In the past organizations had an unmatched competitive advantage due to low competition and higher barriers to entry into their markets. As a result, many organizations dominated their industries. However, in the era of globalization, individuals with an internet connection and the right skills can start new organizations that can compete on a global level. Consequently, organizations now are facing more competition that they experienced in the past. Another reason for increase competition is new technology. Technology is improving increasingly faster than any time in history. Therefore, organizations that are not agile could not survive in the current environment. </p><p> Agile entities realize that they have to become flexible and nimble to withstand competition. Accordingly, the researcher in this study proposes an organizational agility model and this proposed model is the focus of the study. The proposed model significant arises from the fact that currently there are limited numbers of models that help organizations in becoming agile entities. The characteristics in this study were based on Worley and Lawler (2010) &ldquo;Agility and Organization Design: A Diagnostic Framework&rdquo;. The study conducted a survey utilizing an instrument developed by Dr. Worley and Dr. Lawler that contains 15 agility characteristics. The survey uses all 15 characteristics to determine if the organization is agile. In addition, the study utilizes three of the 15 agility characteristics to determent if a relationship occurs between the study variables. </p><p> This quantitative study examined the relationship between change capability, learning capability, shared leadership and organizational agility. Moreover, understanding these relationships could assist scholars and practitioners in producing change programs that emphasize certain behaviors that make an organization agile. The study surveyed 116 participants and found that focusing on change capability, learning capability and shared leadership could contribute in creating agile organizations. Consequently, after evaluating the study results, a new agility model emerged. This model shows that organizations can achieve agility by developing change capability, learning capability, shared leadership, shared purpose and flexible resources. Ultimately, achieving agility could help organizations compete and endure now and the future.</p>

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>The Russian Federation is a key state actor in cyberspace; cyber events associated with Russian state and non-state actors have threatened Russia’s neighbors, shaped international cyber norms, as well as influenced strategists’ understanding of cyber power. This thesis seeks to understand Russian cyber capability through the lens of Robert Jervis’s offense-defense theory in order to answer the thesis’s central question: Do Russian cyber capabilities reflect an investment in offensive or defensive cyber weapons, and do Russia’s cyber technology, doctrine, and policy differentiate its posture as offensive or defensive? To evaluate Russian cyber capability, this thesis considers two factors—technology and geography—concluding that, although the Russian government is modifying its cyber terrain to improve defensiveness, Russia’s brandished cyber weapons suggest that it pursues offensive capability. To evaluate Russia’s posture differentiation, the thesis examines Russians’ understanding of cyber power, Russian information warfare and hybrid warfare doctrines, and the country’s international engagements, concluding that, although Russia has historically presented its posture as defensive, it is increasingly difficult to make that distinction. Finally, the thesis evaluates this state-level analysis in the broader context of the international system; Russia’s historical aggression and current behavior in cyberspace likely reflects Stephen van Evera’s explanATOry hypothesis for the causes of war—defensive expansion.

Abstract:
Much has been written about the benefits to be derived from maximising organisational capability as a means of increasing competitive advantage, establishing human resource functions as a strategic partner and improving stakeholder satisfaction. However, there is very little in the research on how organisations build their organisational capability (OC). This thesis explores how developments in our understanding of strategic planning and human resource practices have contributed to a focus in organisations on building their organisational capability. The emergence of the resource-based theory of the firm, together with changes in human resource practices in job analysis, performance management and staff development has laid the foundation for organisational capability. A Model of Organisational Capability is proposed that explores how systems and processes can be aligned to maximize core organisational capability. Three research questions emerge from the literature and the Model: *How do organisations define their Strategic Intent Domain? *How can organisations define their Core OCs? *How do organisations embed their OCs into their Job Context, Organisational Systems and Knowledge Networks Enablers? These questions are explored by examining an Australian University utilising a participatory action research methodology. The study focused on how the organisation engaged senior managers to develop an organisational capability framework and agreed on a strategy to embed the capabilities in HR practice. As a result, this thesis presents a step-by-step process for organisations seeking to build their Core Organisational Capability. Practitioners wishing to maximize their organisational capability can draw on the Model of Organisational Capability, step-by-step process and contextual principles, to assist them to engage with the organisation to explore an organisational capability agenda.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis develops the implementation of the capability approach within health economic evaluations. Until now, the focus of applying the capability approach within health economics has centred on its theoretical merits, as well as the development of capability questionnaires. The aim of this research is to establish methods for applying the capability approach in an evaluation framework. Specifically, this is done by (i.) investigating how a measure of capability well-being, the ICECAP-O, can be incorporated into a health economic model and (ii.) establishing the objective of capability evaluations to aid the decision-making process in allocating scarce resources for health. The relationship between capability and condition-specific health status for osteoarthritis patients is studied through statistical mapping. Methods from the capability literature are drawn upon to construct a methodology for generating capability outcomes that can be used to aid decision-making. This methodology is then tested on an existing economic model, the Birmingham Rheumatoid Arthritis Model (BRAM). Key findings from this thesis are that (i.) it is feasible to predict capability from a condition-specific health instrument and (ii.) establishing “sufficient capability” as the objective for capability evaluations. Further research is required to see what difference a capability based evaluation would make in practice.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis reports on a learning study that employed variation theory to enhance a domain-specific generic-capability pedigree analysis of Hong Kong secondary five students so as to help them develop their capability to solve pedigree problems. Pedigree analysis is a study of inheritance in genetics, which includes the deduction of dominant and recessive characters. The literature and local examination reports suggested that solving pedigree problems is difficult for students, as the process of deduction demands conceptual understanding and use of scientific language. Three biology teachers participated in this learning study using variation theory. Teachers shifted the focus of lesson observation from teaching performance to student learning, to how students deduced the dominant character from pedigree problems, which was the object of learning. To explore the effectiveness of such teaching and learning to solve pedigree problems through different patterns of variation, two cycles of learning study were conducted in two senior biology classes. Results showed that students were more able to deduce the dominant character with relevant genetic principles by experiencing the variations. Both conceptual understanding and scientific language are critical aspects of solving pedigree problems. This study also suggests that explanatory scientific writing needs to be broken down into different components and then differentiated patterns of variation designed to let students discern those components and their relationships; in that way their writing can be ‘scaffolded’ in a stepwise manner rather than giving them the whole writing framework at once. However, the identification of critical features and patterns of variation and their relevance to the object of learning should be considered carefully and explored further.<br>published_or_final_version<br>Education<br>Doctoral<br>Doctor of Philosophy

Warner, Karl S. R. "Networking capability development in new venture internationalisation : a theory building approach." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2014. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/5418/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to explore how technology start-ups build dynamic capabilities in networking to enable their new venture internationalisation (NVI). Positioned within the theoretical context of international entrepreneurship research, this thesis draws on the strategic management, entrepreneurship, and international business literature. Specifically, this thesis draws on three theoretical perspectives: (1) dynamic capabilities, (2) networking and social capital, and (3) NVI theory. Together this study combines Helfat et al. (2007) asset orchestration framework along with Nahapiet and Ghoshal’s (1998) three dimensions of social capital as a theoretical lens to explore how various networking activities enable or inhibit NVI. Specifically, this thesis explores three overarching network processes, with respect to how international new ventures (INVs) (1) create, (2) extend, and (3) modify their social capital in high-technology markets. The empirical context is Scottish and Australian medical technology start-ups that compete in the global medical technology sector, a distinct sector of the wider life sciences industry. Methodologically, this an interpretivist study, which takes an abductive approach to building theory from longitudinal multiple case study research. The focal actor (i.e. level of analysis) is the INV, while the unit of analysis is the focal actor’s network relationships. Data collection and analysis took place over three iterative phases drawing on multiple primary and secondary data sources and processual analytical techniques. To collect these data, this thesis used semi-structured interviews drawing on the critical incident and narrative sequence techniques along with documents, and observation. This study began with a purposeful sample of eight medical technology start-ups, and as findings emerged, a theoretical sample of four cases, along with visual maps, conceptually ordered displays and case-ordered effects matrices helped focus and refine the cross-case analysis. From the emergent cross-case data analysis, three overarching aggregate categories were found to aggregate eleven second-order themes, which aggregate several first-order concepts. The overarching finding of this thesis is that networking capability development is an affect-based emergent process that enables NVI. Specifically, this thesis makes three contributions to knowledge. The primary contribution of this thesis takes a step towards a process theory of networking capability development. Therefore, this study identifies networking capability as one particular type of dynamic capability that enables NVI. Secondly, this thesis begins to unlock the black box of networking by identifying several networking activities that underpin the network-enhancing, network-delaying, and network-modifying process, which triggers, enables, and accelerates a virtuous cycle of networking capability development. Finally, this thesis argues that learning from delays and nurturing core ties helps shift technology start-ups’ reliance from impersonal relations towards future aspirations to internalise operations. A discussion of these findings then outlines the implications for theory, policy, and practice. This study closes with a discussion on research limitations and recommends new avenues for future research.

Behrman, Robert. "Structural Measurement Of Military Organization Capability." Research Showcase @ CMU, 2014. http://repository.cmu.edu/dissertations/373.

Full text
Abstract:
This research presents a structural model of the effect of the organization of military units upon their capability. This research is oriented towards a more complete understanding of military capability and policy decisions about the structure and development of military forces. We identify the types of national and military policy decisions that claims of military capability inform, and find that there are five distinct types of capability claims relevant to military policy. We show how these types of capability claims are logically related to each other, but have different premises, predicates, and standards of proof. We find that one of these types of claims, General Organization Capability Claims, ties together the various military policy decisions. The remainder of this research shows how these capability claims can be formally structured based on military doctrine and structurally evaluated using a network-science based model. The interaction between the structural elements of a military organization (personnel, materiel, and information) and the things it is supposed to do (military tasks) can be represented and analyzed with network science methods, and represents a type of general organization capability claim. We present a method for representing policy decisions about unit structure and tactical doctrine. We then develop two versions of a structural model of capability–one that links the individual elements of an organization to the tasks it performs; another that considers the capacity of a set of organizations to meet a set of requirements. We show that network statistics of organizations represented off of authoritative, rather than observational, data are still consistent with network science findings but require interpretation. We also show how alternate methods of aggregating organizations can expand the utility of the capability measurement. This research presents five new contributions to the fields of military policy analysis and network science–(1) a taxonomy of military capability claims, (2) a meta-network model of doctrinal organization and task data, (3) a structural model of organization capability, (4) a structural model of organization capacity, and (5) a network-based method integer programming method.

Abstract:
The monograph of the Russian American historian is devoted to a number of conceptual problems of US foreign policy in the period of early globalization (late XIX-early XX century). The significance of the socio-economic factor is reinterpreted from the standpoint of modern theory and methodology; the role of the ideology used by the political elite to justify American expansion is traced. New interpretations of the causes and consequences of the Spanish-American war of 1898 are given: for the first time, the place of the "yellow" press in inciting anti-Spanish sentiment among ordinary Americans is shown in detail as one of the first manifestations of successful manipulation of public opinion; the level of combat capability of the American army, which achieved victory over a weaker enemy, but was unprepared to conduct an armed struggle for achieving geopolitical interests with leading European powers, is critically assessed. The archival material, first introduced into scientific circulation, traces the mediation activities of President Roosevelt As the first successful experience in the peaceful settlement of regional conflicts, and also shows the search by top officials for a new world order under the auspices of the United States, with an emphasis on the use of the principles of international arbitration. It is addressed to researchers, teachers, and students interested in the history of the United States.

Full text
Abstract:
In this report, we demonstrate how an interdisciplinary team of computer science and learning sciences researchers utilize an adapted conjecture mapping tool during a collaborative problem-solving session. The session is documented through an edited “Dialogue” format, which captures the process of conjecture map construction and subsequent reflection. We find that creating the conjecture map collaboratively surfaces a key tension: while learning sciences theory often highlights the nuanced and complex relational nature of learning, even the most cutting-edge computing techniques struggle to discern these nuances. Articulating this tension proved to be highly generative, enabling the researchers to discuss how considering impacted community members as a critical “part of the solution” may lead to a socio-technical tool which supports desired learning outcomes, despite limitations in learning theory and technical capability. Ultimately, the process of developing the conjecture map directed researchers towards a precise discussion about how they would need to engage impacted community members (e.g., teachers) in a co-design process.

Learnings from a Summer Research Mentorship to Grow Kaupapa Māori Community Health Researchers. Unitec ePress, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.34074/ocds.105.

Abstract:
This co-authored paper centres the Māori cultural practice of tangi, both as a way to heal and to be heard, for four new and emerging Māori community health researchers involved in a Kaupapa Māori research mentorship. If research mentorships are about growing research capability and capacity, we highlight here that another important ‘c’ comes first – confidence. For over 20 years, Kaupapa Māori theory and research have carved out critically important space for Māori to research ‘as Māori’ in academia, yet omnipresent colonialism continues to cast doubts on the validity of our voices as researchers, and our ‘worthiness’ or ability to step confidently into research space. Here, four emerging Māori researchers who are committed to making research-informed health changes in our communities share how our confidence to ‘do’ research grew during a summer Kaupapa Māori research mentorship. We each experience the emotion of tangi – be it a bird’s call or weeping – in different ways. Therefore, rather than offer advice on ‘how to become confident as an emerging Kaupapa Māori researcher’, this co-authored paper encourages you to hear, and importantly feel, these stories about ‘becoming’ and to consider how research must do better to create more Kaupapa Māori-led opportunities for Māori to confidently step into research with, and for, their communities.

Reeve, Tammy. Pitfalls of Designing, Developing, and Maintaining Modular Avionics Systems in the Name of Sustainability. SAE International, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.4271/epr2024010.

Full text
Abstract:
&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;Sustainability is both an ethical responsibility and business concern for the aerospace industry. Military and commercial avionics developers have pushed toward a common standard for interfaces, computing platforms, and software in hopes of having “reusability” and reducing weight with backplane computing architectures which, in theory, would support commonality across aircraft systems. The integrated modular avionics (IMA) and military Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) standards are two such examples. They emerged to support common computing architectures for reuse and sustainability concepts, from the beginning of aircraft development to the sundown or mortality phase.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Pitfalls of Designing, Developing, and Maintaining Modular Avionics Systems in the Name of Sustainability&lt;/b&gt; looks at technological, organizational, and cultural challenges making reuse and IMA platform models difficult to fully realize their sustainability goals. Additionally, it considers the certification aspects of reuse and examines lessons learned from a successful reusable and sustainable platform.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.sae.org/publications/edge-research-reports" target="_blank"&gt;Click here to access the full SAE EDGE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;sup&gt;TM&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.sae.org/publications/edge-research-reports" target="_blank"&gt; Research Report portfolio.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Abstract:
Several ANZSOG jurisdictions are working to improve their foresight capability and to embed that capability within the work of government, making foresight as an essential element of policy design, policy capability and policy stewardship. An ANZSOG ‘curated conversation’ brought together senior officials from the Commonwealth, NSW and South Australia, to share lessons and approaches to improving foresight capability and to engage with the Singapore Government, considered a world leader in government foresight capability. This ‘conversation tracker’ captures the key themes of a broad-ranging discussion which have broad relevance to all jurisdictions looking to future-proof policy and build foresight into their work.

Readiness for AI Adoption of Philippine Business and Industry: The Government's Role in Fostering Innovation- and AI-Driven Industrial Development. Philippine Institute for Development Studies, 2024. https://doi.org/10.62986/dp2024.35.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper examines the current state of artificial intelligence (AI) adoption in Philippine businesses and industries, analyzing the barriers to adoption and evaluating the government's role in fostering AI-driven industrial development. Through an analysis of various AI readiness indices and case studies, the research finds that while basic digital infrastructure is widespread, with 90.8 percent of establishments having computers and 81 percent having internet access, advanced technology adoption remains limited. Only 14.9 percent of firms use AI technologies, with adoption concentrated in urban areas and larger firms, particularly in the ICT and BPO sectors. The study identifies key barriers including limited digital infrastructure, low awareness of AI technologies, significant skills gaps, and insufficient funding opportunities. Drawing from economic theory and international case studies, the paper outlines three critical domains for government intervention: market facilitation, capability building, and ecosystem coordination. The research proposes policy recommendations focusing on infrastructure development, human capital development, regulatory frameworks, public-private partnerships, and ethical guidelines. These recommendations emphasize the need for coordinated action across government agencies, substantial investment in digital infrastructure and education, and the establishment of clear governance frameworks to ensure responsible AI adoption while fostering innovation and competitiveness in the Philippine business sector.

Mori, Ipsos. Local Authority Capacity and Capability. Food Standards Agency, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.46756/sci.fsa.dvl526.

Full text
Abstract:
The FSA has a key role as the central competent authority in overseeing official food and feed controls undertaken by local authorities. This supports the delivery of the FSA’s mission, food you can trust, and helps ensure food is safe and what it says it is. The FSA seeks to work in partnership with local authorities to help them to deliver official food and feed controls. Local Authority (LA) Environmental Health (EH), Port Health and Trading Standards (TS) teams deliver official food and feed controls using a range of interventions as set out in the Food Law Code of Practice (FLCoP) and Feed Law Code of Practice (FeLCoP). They are instrumental to the delivery of the FSA mission, across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to ensure consumer confidence and protect public health. Evidence from professional bodies, LAs and wider sources suggests that LAs are experiencing significant issues around the recruitment and retention of suitably/ appropriately qualified and experienced officers.(footnote 1) The FSA commissioned Ipsos UK to carry out this initial phase of discovery research to understand more about the barriers and facilitators encountered by LAs in England, Wales and Northern Ireland

Abstract:
This project has led to the creation of an automated-testing infrastructure for autonomy code. The framework uses Jenkins, AWS Lambda, Docker, Kubernetes, and other open-source technologies. It was utilized and evaluated both for the Generalized Racing Intelligence Competition (GRAIC) and for evaluating student programming assignments for the principles of safe autonomy course (ECE484). This infrastructure has improved our capability to evaluate (autograde) student design assignments, and students can also receive precise feedback on their work as they progress through various design challenges. This infrastructure has significantly improved our capability in both automatic, cloud-based testing of autonomy code and making this service available to a large population of students.

Full text
Abstract:
Satellite navigation, communications and imagery are critical to military doctrine. They provide the capability and functionalities required to operate increasingly complex military assets with unprecedented precision. On account of their growing importance, there is a need for EU member states to develop their own satellite infrastructure, and to ensure control over and superiority in the space landscape in which satellites operate in order to protect their security. This paper analyses the EU Space Strategy, which is the first of its kind, identifying its strengths and areas where there is room for improvement, as well as the challenges facing the project to establish a common European space defence policy, in terms of both institutional and industrial collaboration.
