Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2007.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 255-262).<br>Entering the 21st Century, after almost 30 years development of the Chinese economy, several famous Chinese firms have grown to a significant scale and achieved the rudiments of world-class corporations.

Abstract:

Digital preservation is a significant challenge for cultural heritage institutions and other repositories of digital information resources. Recognizing the critical role of metadata in any successful digital preservation strategy, the Preservation Metadata Implementation Strategies (PREMIS) has been extremely influential on providing a "core" set of preservation metadata elements that support the digital preservation process. However, there is no evidence, in the form of previous research, as to what factors explain and predict the level of adoption of PREMIS. This research focused on identif

Abstract:

Modern lifestyles in the developed regions of the world operate beyond our planet's resource capacity. Over-consumption has not only proven detrimental for the environment, but has also undermined our capacity to achieve deep life satisfaction and societal well-being. Embracing more sustainable ways of consuming and producing is key in order to foster the conditions for humanity to flourish. Strategies for disrupting the dominant consumption patterns lie within the next challenges, as adoption of sustainable innovation is still disappointingly low and needs to be accelerated.

Este trabalho apresenta uma discussão acerca de relações estabelecidas entre a fotografia e a arte contemporânea, a partir de um viés em que a produção artística dialoga com a produção fotográfica de âmbito familiar. A fotografia é assumida como um processo mediador culturalmente construído, levando em conta aspectos de sua conformação tecnológica, bem como de seus usos sociais, ambas dimensões consideradas preponderantes para a produção de significado para estas imagens. Para estabelecer estas relações através de uma perspectiva interdisciplinar, o texto busca integrar pontos de vista de área

Abstract:

In the last few decades Creative Industries (CIs) have been gaining ground as an important topic in academic and political agendas. CIs have their origin in creativity and individual talent to produce content, services or products with symbolic value, e.g. design, music, video games, among other sectors. The rationale in grouping these rather diverse activities together was said to be that individual creativity and intellectual capital were the primary drivers for these sectors. Moreover, digital technologies play an important role as they provide new forms of expressions of creativity (such

Due to increasing globalization, firms nowadays, especially growth-oriented SMEs, tend to increase their reliance on network linkages to compete successfully in the international market.

Uma vez que o Cinema é uma atividade de caráter sociocultural, que é estruturada por forças históricas, sociais, culturais, econômicas e tecnológicas, mas que por sua vez modela e se soma às forças estruturantes da sociedade, pode-se inferir que há uma dialética permeando os processos de produção, rep

This thesis examines creativity as manifested in an online and transnational network of musicians who compose chipmusic, a kind of electronic music characteristic of 1980s early home computers and videogame sounds. The primary argument is that creativity in chipmusic worlds is networked, meaning that it is dispersed across various activities that are labelled as creative: chipmusic-making, technology-hacking practices that underpin the music, digital cultural practices such as use of social media, online releases, crowdsourcing, staged and screened performances, and any other activity related

Mestrado em Gestão<br>O Cazaquistão é um país em mudança, mas que precisa de ainda mais mudança para continuar a crescer e a melhorar o nível de vida dos seus cidadãos. A competitividade das empresas depende da inovação e do empreendedorismo na sociedade. A dependência dos recursos naturais não deve durar sempre, em especial se é para se reter os mais jovens, educados nas melhores universidades mundiais, com investimento do governo, que irão querer pôr as suas ideias e formação em prática, montando empresas e ingressando no mercado de trabalho, que deverá reconhecer e dar oportunidades de dese

Abstract:

Cette thèse se propose d'étudier l'impact des facteurs culturels sur la conception des mobiliers. L'industrie du meuble est en perpétuelle évolution entre marché local et mondial. Devant cette réalité le designer est amené à créer des modèles qui auront à subir les aléas dus à des différences culturelles. Actuellement, peu de données existent sur l'influence et l'intégration de la culture dans l'industrie des meubles malgré l'opinion largement admise que le meuble est largement marqué par la culture. Cette thèse est effectuée en deux étapes. Une étape première théorique et fondamentale puis un

Dans cette thèse, nous étudions les concepts de durabilité et de responsabilité à l’ère de la numérisation, époque marquée par l’émergence de nouvelles technologies numériques de rupture. Nous cherchons à identifier dans quelle mesure les technologies numériques peuvent contribuer aux objectifs de durabilité et de responsabilité et comment une technologie numérique spécifique peut faciliter l’atteinte de ces objectifs.Ces critères nous ont conduits au choix de la fabrication additive, plus communément connue sous le nom de « technologie d'impression 3D » (3DP).

Abstract:

L'évolution et la large diffusion des technologies mobiles a entrainé l'émergence de nouveaux types de divertissements donc les jeux pervasifs, qui exploitent les technologies de l'informatique pervasive pour étendre et brouiller les frontières spatiales, temporelles et sociales traditionnellement dévolues au jeu. Dans le domaine culturel institutionnel, les jeux pervasifs ont un fort potentiel en tant que dispositifs de médiation par leur capacité à susciter l'intérêt auprès des jeunes publics et à leurs caractéristiques intrinsèques telles que le flow et l'immersion. O, la conception de jeux

Abstract:

In the post-Napster era of disruptive innovations, independent artists are managing more nonmusical roles and more revenue streams to remain competitive and earn a living wage from their music. The purpose of this single case study was to explore the financial management strategies that one independent rock band needed to understand music royalties. Disruptive innovation was the conceptual framework used to guide the study. The sample was comprised of 4 members of an independent rock band based in Northeast Ohio. The selected band met the criteria for the study as members who earned revenue fr

Abstract:

The ability for an organization to innovate has become one of the most important capabilities needed in the new knowledge economy. The research has demonstrated that an organization’s culture of innovation in particular predicts organizational innovativeness across multiple industries. To provide support to these organizations in their abilities to understand the culture of innovation, researchers have developed instruments to measure culture of innovation, and while many of these instruments have been widely used to inform organizational opportunities for improvement, few of these instruments

Abstract:

This thesis recognizes that organizational culture is a primary determinant of innovation capability and argues the need to better understand this relationship or process as a necessary prerequisite to nurturing it in a more structured and systematic manner. The study explores this relationship within an R&D environment in telecommunications. It draws upon the knowledge management, organisational behaviour and organisational theory literatures to conceptualise organisational culture as a repository of knowledge. Using a soft systems bottom up approach four cultural archetypes with specific kno
