Abstract:
The report details the process of creating a property marketing system, Spaces, for commercial real estate property owners and leasing agents. The system has been developed alongside a startup company, Objektia, in conjunction with their efforts to strengthen their product offerings by providing property marketing as a service. Spaces delivers an easy to use tool for everyday work tasks of the leaser, including creation of unique advertising, supply management, customer relationship management tools and lastly marketing analysis tools. The goal of Spaces is to enable leasers to attract more and better tenants, through high conversion advertising and subsequently improve the sales process through enhanced customer relations. The report describes theory regarding the commercial real estate market and web applications, the agile development process of Spaces, and how the end result will be used by leasers and marketed as a real world application to customers through Objektia. It is concluded that using these methods, a conceptual system and a promising product is created with capabilities for future real world implementation with Objektia.

The thesis that follows is an attempt to gain a deeper understanding of intellectual property from a policy as well as a strategic perspective. While the discussion that follows is applicable to intellectual property in general, the focus of this thesis is on a particular aspect of intellectual property i.e patents. Policy and strategic perspectives are covered in section I and 11 respectively. The section on policy explores the origin and evolution of intellectual property related policies by discussing key legislation and court cases. The two questions that were most relevant when exploring the policy side of the patent system were: -- Is the intellectual property system hindering or encouraging innovation? -- What changes, if any, are required to make the system more effective? The section on strategy looks at IP strategies (or lack thereof) of three leading companies, Apple, Google and Microsoft. These three companies were selected because of their apparently differing strategies and this cursory judgement was confirmed when the strategies of the companies were put under a microscope. The question that were central while exploring the strategic aspects of intellectual property were: -- How are these three companies coping with the patent system as it exists today? -- What changes can make the strategies employed more effective? The summary section at the end tries to reconcile these two different ways of looking at the intellectual property system into a coherent whole.

India has established itself well as a powerhouse of talent in Information Technology (IT)/Software services, indicated by its exports of USD 54.33 Billion in 2010. Established in 1980s by the late Mr. Rajiv Gandhi, Prime Minister of India at that time, the focus on education and IT has paid rich dividends for the next generation. While a lot has been achieved by Indian entrepreneurs when it comes to software services, the same cannot be said about the Software Product segment which has remained out of focus so far. This is evident from the fact that Software Product based exports have remained less than 2% of the overall IT/Software industry exports so far. Many reasons are obvious and have been well studied in the past, while some are not very obvious and are less well explored. Using this thesis as an opportunity, an attempt has been made to explore these reasons, and some recommendations have been shared for architecting an ecosystem that can help foster Software Product and Intellectual Property (IP) focus.

Abstract:
The contracting company is in the desire of an autonomous system that can do tedious administrative work that is today done manually. They would like to autonomically notify customers about incoming alarms from the customers’ real estates’ Data Under Centrals and to notify about bookings, in which a complete booking system has to be created, together with a file system analyzer that notifies about new files in the customers’ project folders. A notification system was made that was easily deployable and ready to use. The system had to be completely configurable for the contracting company to use it to its full potential. The notification system was to send notifications when a new alarm had entered the database, a booking had to be reminded of, a rebooking was made or a file had been added to the file system in a designated project folder. The contracting company had a web portal that was further developed in ASP.net in which a booking calendar and booking viewer page was added together with a form creation and management system. A demo buttons page was also added for generating demo notifications for the company to show it’s customers how the system responds to certain events. The employees at GATE IBS feel confident that this system will help them in their working environment to further strengthen their position as an industry leading business in control- and monitoring technology.
Det uppdragsgivande företaget önskar ett autonomt system som kan utföra tidskrävande administrativt arbete som idag utförs manuellt. De vill autonomt informera kunderna om inkommande larm från kundens fastigheters "Data Under Centrals" samt meddela om bokningar där ett komplett bokningssystem måste skapas tillsammans med en filsystemanalysator som meddelar om nya filer i kundens projektmapp. Ett notifikationssystem gjordes som var enkelt att distribuera och redo att använda. Systemet måste vara helt konfigurerbart för att det uppdragsgivande bolaget ska kunna använda programmet till sin fulla potential. Anmälningssystemet skulle skicka meddelanden när ett nytt larm hade kommit in i databasen, en bokning måste påminnas om, ombokning gjordes eller en fil hade lagts till filsystemet i en utsedd projektmapp. Kontraktsföretaget hade en webbportal som vidareutvecklades i ASP.net där en bokningskalender och bokningsvisningssida lagts till tillsammans med ett formulärgenererings- och formulärhanteringssystem och en demoknappssida för att generera demonotifikationer för att företaget ska kunna visa kunderna hur systemet svarar på vissa händelser. De anställda på GATE IBS är övertygade om att detta system kommer att hjälpa dem i sin arbetsmiljö för att ytterligare stärka sin ställning som branschledande företag inom kontroll- och övervakningsteknik.

Abstract:
The construction industry has been hesitant for a long time to apply new technologies. In property development, the industry relies heavily on employees bringing experience from one project to another. These employees learn to manage risks in connection with the acquisition of land, but when these people retire, the knowledge disappears. An AI-based decision-support system that takes the risks and the market into account when acquiring land can learn from each project and bring this knowledge into future projects. In facility management, artificial intelligence could increase the efficiency of the allocation of staff in the ongoing operations. The purpose of the study is to analyse how companies in the real estate industry can improve their decision-making with the help of AI in property development and property management. In this study, two case studies of two different players in the real estate industry have been performed. One player, Bygg-Fast, represents property development and the other player, VGR, represents facility management. The study is based on interviews, discussions, and collected data. By mapping and then quantifying the risks and market indicators that are input data in the process, a basis can be created. The data can be used for a model that lays the foundation for an AI-based decision support system that will help the property developer to make calculated decisions in the land acquisition process. By mapping what a flow through a property looks like, measuring points can be set out to analyse how long the activities take in the specific business. These measured values provide a collection of data that makes it easier to plan the activities conducted in the property. A more efficient flow can be achieved by visualizing the entire process so staff can be allocated to the right part of the flow. By being flexible and being able to re-plan the business quickly if planning is disrupted, a high level of efficiency can be achieved. This could be done by an AI-based decision support system that simulates alternative day plans.
Byggbranschen har länge varit tveksamt till att applicera nya tekniker. Inom fastighetsutveckling bygger branschen mycket på att anställda tar med sig erfarenheter från ett projekt till ett annat. Dessa anställda lär sig hantera risker i samband med förvärv av mark men när dessa personer slutar eller går i pension försvinner kunskapen. Ett AI baserat beslutssystem som tar risk och marknad i beaktning vid förvärv av mark kan lära sig av varje projekt och ta med dessa kunskaper till framtida projekt. Inom fastighetsförvaltning skulle artificiell intelligens kunna effektivisera allokerandet av personal i den pågående verksamheten. Syftet med studien är att analysera hur företag i fastighetsbranschen kan förbättra sitt beslutstagande med hjälp av AI i utveckling av fastigheter samt fastighetsförvaltning. I denna studien har två fallstudier av två olika aktörer i fastighetsbranschen utförts. Ena aktören, Bygg-Fast, representerar fastighetsutveckling och den andra aktören, VGR, representerar fastighetsförvaltning. Studien bygger på intervjuer, diskussioner och insamlade data. Genom att kartlägga och sedan kvantifiera de risker samt marknadsindikatorer som är indata i processen kan ett underlag skapas. Underlaget kan användas för en modell som lägger grunden för ett AI baserat beslutsstödsystem som ska hjälpa fastighetsutvecklaren med att ta kalkylerade beslut i mark förvärvsprocessen. Genom att kartlägga hur ett flöde genom en fastighet ser ut kan mätpunkter sättas ut för att analysera hur lång tid aktiviteterna tar i den specifika verksamheten. Dessa mätvärden ger en samlad data som gör det lättare att planera verksamheten som bedrivs i fastigheten. Ett effektivare flöde kan uppnås genom att visualisera hela processen så personal kan allokeras till rätt del av flödet. Genom att vara flexibel och kunna planera om verksamheten snabbt ifall planering störs kan en hög effektivitet nås. Detta skulle kunna göras av ett AI baserat beslutsstödsystem som simulerar alternativa dagsplaneringar.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited
The Administrative Sciences (AS) Department of the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) maintains a large amount of plant and minor property to support its vast and varied operations. This property requires accurate record keeping to assure accountability of each item throughout its lifetime, from initial acquisition through disposal. The AS Department implemented a Financial Management Information System (FMIS), through the work of prior NPS students, at the commencement of FY 91. This thesis develops and integrates the Property Management Module into the FMIS to support the management and accountability of the AS Department property. The new expanded version is named FMIS 2.0. An outline covering software maintenance analysis, the Property Management system requirements analysis, and system design methodology is provided. The system was written using dBASE IV, version 1.1 and will transition to operational status from the current FMIS at the beginning of FY 92.

Abstract:
In Hong Kong, the responsibility for building management falls on property owners. To assist in building management, most property owners would appoint a property management company. Fulfilling relevant statutory requirements is mandatory for property management companies; however, it is debatable if meeting the basic statutory requirements is equivalent to providing quality property management services for property owners. In fact, property owners usually have more requests than minimum statutory requirements and it is therefore a multi-factor evaluation system for quality of residential property management services is proposed in this research project. To develop the assessment system, quality property management services criteria, including dimensions and performance items, are identified through desk research and focus group interviews with owners’ representatives and property management practitioners. Interval score and ranking are then assigned to the identified assessment criteria by distributing questionnaires with pilot test to owners’ representatives, property management practitioners and building management team of Home Affairs Department of HKSAR. Data collected from the questionnaire are analyzed with weight assessment method: Reliability Interval Method (RIM) in which importance weightings of the criteria can be developed and statistical analysis is allowed. “Repair and Maintenance (excluding clubhouse facilities, if applicable)” and “Effectiveness of emergency repair and maintenance services”, which are not statutory requirements for managing residential properties, are respectively weighted as the most important dimension and performance item. As far as application of the developed quality assessment system is concerned, services quality provided by major property management companies are measured and compared with questionnaires to students pursuing Housing Management in University of Hong Kong. The correlation between quality of property management services and numbers of properties managed by the company is not statistically significant; however, this is likely due to a small samples size, as the visual display of data suggests a relationship. One interesting finding in this research is the high factor weight of assessment criteria which are not statutory requirements for managing residential properties. Such a result implies that meeting basic statutory requirements is not equivalent to providing quality property management services in the eyes of property owners. Besides, this research provides a framework for future development of a classification system to indicate how good a property is for meeting specific overall grading. This research is important because quality of property management services in residential properties can be quantified and closely monitored with the developed quality assessment system in a performance-based, simple and standard way from the perspective of property owners. As far as the benefits of property management companies, which sell services in keen market, are concerned, it is expected that the system could keep supervising and thus improving the quality of services; delivery of high quality services is a profitable way to differentiate ones from the competitors.

Abstract:
The study investigates the underlying causal mechanisms behind the outcomes in the affordable housing market in South Africa. The rationale for this study is the persistence of unfavourable outcomes in terms of location, density, integration and affordability of affordable housing developments. The post-apartheid government adopted housing policies, supporting planning policies and directed financial investment towards the development of integrated affordable housing at appropriate locations and densities. However, more than 20 years after democracy, there is no evidence that affordable housing is integrated and being developed at higher densities and appropriate locations, despite the principles of densification, integration and the creative use of town planning tools bestowed in the housing policies. This study, using structure and agency theory, investigates how structural variables (planning system and policy framework, resources for housing development and ideological perspectives) influenced the agency of role players in producing the current outcomes in the affordable housing market. The study investigated two interrelated questions. Firstly, how have the ideals of planning incentives, densification and integration reflected in the housing policies influenced the post-apartheid planning systems? Secondly, how do the planning system and other structural variables impact on the property and housing market and how does this, in turn, produce the current outcomes regarding the location, density, integration and affordability of affordable housing. Corresponding to these questions were two hypotheses. The first was that the principles of planning incentives, densification and integration espoused in housing policy have not been sufficiently reflected in the planning system, leading to failure in stimulating the private sector to supply affordable housing. The second hypothesis was that the planning system fails to counteract the tendencies of private developers to locate housing at inappropriate densities and locations. Using the conceptual framework designed from structure-agency theory, this study adopted a comparative case study method to investigate how the interactions of role players with the structural variables led to the outcomes in terms of location, density, integration and affordability of five affordable housing developments in the City of Cape Town metropolitan area. The case studies of affordable housing developments were categorised in terms of the type of developers, tenure options and land ownership. The empirical data were collected using household surveys and semi-structured interviews. A household survey of 395 beneficiaries was conducted in the affordable housing developments. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with developers and planning consultants in the private sector, state policy makers and policy-implementers at the City of Cape Town and the provincial Department of Human Settlements, housing activists and housing policy specialists. The study finds that while the principles in housing policies are reflected in the planning system, there is no clear indication on the meaning and expected outcomes, leading to a disjuncture in policy intent, implementation, and failure to stimulate the private sector to supply affordable housing. Furthermore, the study finds that the planning system has lagged behind in providing adequate legislative and planning tools to support the development of affordable housing. The study finds that the planning system and policy framework has constrained the development of affordable housing and failed to successfully curb the tendencies of developers to develop at inappropriate locations and densities. The study finds that while the structural variables such as the resources for housing development and planning system and policy framework impacted on the location, density, integration and affordability of affordable housing; the ideological perspectives of role players have impacted on the roles and distribution of resources towards the development of affordable housing. The study concludes that while the housing policy has been progressive, it is not sufficient to address the challenges in the affordable housing market. It is recommended that policy interventions targeted at enhancing the location, density, integration and affordability be implemented through the three areas that constitute the structural environment, namely the planning and policy framework, resources for housing development, and ideological perspectives of role players in order to impact on the agency of role players to create an environment conducive to the development of integrated affordable housing at higher densities and appropriate locations.

Abstract:
Novelty is a widespread notion that has not been given commensurate critical attention. This research is an ethnographically-inclined exploration of practices surrounding the accomplishment of novelty in an institution for which novelty is a central notion: the patent system of the United Kingdom. The research is based on interviews with patent examiners at the UK patent office, interviews with patent attorneys at various legal firms, and documentary analysis of legislation and numerous legal judgments. The thesis brings to bear themes from Science and Technology Studies and ethnomethodology to assess the extent to which they can account for the practices surrounding novelty in the UK patent system. As a fundamental legal requirement for the patentability of inventions, novelty is a central part of the practices of patent composition, assessment and contestation. Rather than being a straightforward technical criterion, however, novelty is shown to be a complex and heterogeneous phenomenon emerging from interwoven legal, bureaucratic and individual practices. The local resolution of whether or not a given invention is new, and the cross-institutional coherence of novelty as a practicable notion, raise questions concerning ontology, accountability, scale and inconcludability, and provide an opportunity for empirically grounded engagement with these longstanding analytical concerns.

Abstract:
This research examines the effect of a nation's IP environment on the IP management (IPM) strategies of foreign innovative firms. It introduces the conc;ept of a national institutional system of intellectual property protection and enforcement (ISI) to capture the characteristics of a country's IP system. The ISI comprises: (i) formal (de jure) substantive and subordinate laws (including supranational, national and sub-national laws, infrastructure and systems) and (ii) informal (de facto) rules of behaviour of institutional and economic actors. This research reveals that a national ISI can have a significant determinant effect on the IPM strategies of firms at both a macro-level (i.e. expansion decisions and entry-mode choice) and a micro-level (i.e. decisions taken in the host country to manage IPRs). This study identifies and compares the IS Is of two developing countries, namely, India and China, which provide only weak IP protection and enforcement and yet are significant sources of infringing activity. We examine how the ISI of each country impacts on firm strategy, with a focus on three high-technology industries, namely, biosciences, advanced engineering and software-electronics. In-depth interviews were conducted with managers of foreign innovative firms that have operations in India or China, or both. Interview data provide insights into their perceptions and experiences of the ISI of each country and the IPM strategies they deploy to protect and enforce their IPRs. This study reveals strong similarities and differences between the ISIs of both countries, and that this has a varying effect on the IPM strategies of firms depending on the industry context. In particular, we find that the informal rules of behaviour have a greater effect on firm strategy than do formal characteristics of the ISI. We explain why firms from the three focal industries adopt different IPM strategies in response to the ISI of each country, and how these vary in their effectiveness by industry and between the two countries.

Abstract:
The primary aim of a Performance Management System is the development of a process where goals are set based on the needs of the organisation, while taking the development needs of the individual into account. These goals are negotiated and finalised through a continuous process of communication between all interested parties. In Higher Education, students, other internal clients, managers/supervisors and functional experts evaluate performances against these set goals. A well-designed system, if applied correctly, will benefit employees at various levels. Individuals become involved in setting goals or objectives; this in turn becomes the basis of a performance agreement. Performance feedback is regularly given and in terms of specific scoreboards, these scoreboards, in turn, indicated to which extent the performance goals were met or not. Over-achievers are rewarded accordingly while individuals, who do not meet their performance goals, are assisted and development programmes are suggested to improve relevant performance. Higher Education Institutions, particularly in South Africa, have been very unenthusiastic in adopting and implementing Performance Management Systems, especially when it involves management and appraisal of academic staff at institutions of higher learning. A possible reason for this reluctance may be found with the high opinion placed on the concept of 'academic freedom', and specifically, the difficulties associated with 'measuring' excellence in academic outputs and pursuits, and 'measuring intellectual property'. The goal of this study is to address and solve the stated problem and to evaluate Performance Management Systems currently used in Higher Education, in an attempt to measure their contribution to the Human Resource Management process. This research study was undertaken with the aim of investigating current levels of satisfaction with Performance Management as applied to Higher Education Institutions. The Balanced Scorecard, a Management Accounting tool, was also examined with the idea of serving as a tool to measure the viability of Performance Management of academia in Higher Education Institutions. This research study formulated one main objective, and four secondary objectives. The main objective of this study was to determine, with Management Accounting as a tool, the viability of Performance Management for the academia in Higher Education in South Africa. The secondary objectives were summarised as follows: • A review of Performance Management Systems, • A comprehensive study of Performance Management Systems for academia in South Africa, • The impact of Performance Management on academic staff performance, and staff development, • An investigation into the Balanced Scorecard as a Management Accounting tool. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, and from the literature it became evident that Performance Management of academia in Higher Education Institutions is problematic. A questionnaire circulated to the academia of four Higher Education Institutions served as basis for the empirical section of this study. The empirical evidence gathered through the responses captured from the questionnaires suggested first hand that there is great dissatisfaction amongst academia regarding the Performance Management as applied to them. In this case the findings gathered from the empirical study corresponded with the findings from the literature review conducted for this study. Evidence gathered through the responses from the questionnaires suggested great dissatisfaction with the current Performance Management System and that academia is eager to investigate alternative methods of implementing Performance Management . The findings also suggested that the Balanced Scorecard, a Management Accounting tool, should be investigated further in an attempt to find an alternative method of Performance Management The findings of this study also identified areas for future possible research; there is a need for more extensive research studies to validate the use of the Balanced Scoreboard, a Management Accounting tool, as an alternative to the Performance Management Systems currently applied.

Abstract:
Knowledge Management System (KMS) is a necessary concept as knowledge possessed by each individual employee is an intellectual property asset that will provide benefits for any organization. In a company, in terms of KMS, employees’ performance holds an important role in helping run the business of the company becoming sustainable and successful. Therefore, the measurement of employees’ performance based on a balanced scorecard is needed to understand the current business situation. This research helped focus on the perception between the KMS and employee’s performance based on a balanced scorecard (BSC) regarding a financial perspective, customer perspective, internal business process perspective, and learning & growth perspective. A survey was conducted at PT. Vale Indonesia Tbk (Vale) to ascertain these perspectives and perceptions of employees regarding performance based on a BSC. These perception data were analyzed, and conclusions were drawn regarding hypotheses. The findings section of this thesis shows the results in details. The results of the survey showed that the employees had a good perception of the value and benefits of KMS as measured with the BSC with the exception of the financial aspect. The interpretation of the results created recommendations to further implement KMS, and to improve employees’ performance at Vale.

Full text
Abstract:
La ville africaine est marquée par un dualisme du modèle urbain. A côté de la ville moderne, administrée, équipée, " légale ", se développent les quartiers " illégaux ", sans équipements ni services urbains de base. La Côte d'Ivoire n'échappe pas à cette situation. Au lendemain des indépendances, elle entreprend la plus vaste opération de géographie volontaire en vue de réduire les injustices spatiales et les inégalités entre régions du Sud forestier ; « l'opération San-Pedro ». Objectif: mettre en valeur une région jusqu'alors totalement enclavée et en marge du « miracle économique ivoirien » ; le Sud-ouest du pays avec comme point d'ancrage, la création d'un port en eau profonde et d'une ville nouvelle. Malgré un projet d'urbanisme largement concerté, San-Pedro abrite aujourd'hui l'un des plus grands quartiers précaires de l'Afrique de l'ouest, favorisant ainsi une fragmentation de plus en plus accentuée de la ville. On observe aujourd'hui dans la ville, moins de 10% des occupations immobilières ayant faits l'objet d'un enregistrement cadastral et d'un droit foncier réel inattaquable. Ce faible pourcentage illustre l'échec du système de l'immatriculation foncière, seule voie légale de sécurisation foncière et immobilière. Cela pose la question fondamentale d'autres voies alternatives à la sécurisation foncière et immobilière. D'où le nécessaire développement des systèmes d'adressage qui, à l'absence de cadastre général, permet de localiser les parcelles à partir de l'espace public afin d'améliorer la connaissance du patrimoine immobilier c'est-à-dire assurer une identification publique des biens et des droits existants facilitant ainsi leur sécurisation et leur reconnaissance juridique ultérieure. A cet effet, de nombreux pays africains ont lancé ces dernières années, des opérations d'adressage visant à servir d'alternative au cadastre fiscal et aux projets difficiles et lents de « régularisation foncière » en promouvant des formes simplifiées et principalement littérales d'identification des parcelles.Cette thèse vise donc à établir à San-Pedro, l'intérêt de l'utilisation d'un système d'adressage dans les politiques de sécurisation foncière et immobilière. Elle cherche à comprendre les relations entre l'adressage et le "droit à la ville", c'est-à-dire le droit d'accès aux ressources urbaines notamment d'accès à la propriété et à la sécurité du logement. Pour appréhender ces relations, il s'avère nécessaire d'entreprendre l'analyse sous l'angle de la justice spatiale tout en soulignant l'importance de l'adressage comme outil de reconnaissance des droits fonciers locaux et surtout d'intégration sociale et économique des populations.Cette approche ouvre de nouvelles perspectives méthodologiques à exploiter dans la réforme des systèmes fonciers et cadastraux des pays africains
The African city is marked by a dualism of urban model. Alongside the modern city, administered equipped "legal" grow "illegal" areas, no equipment or basic urban services. Côte d'Ivoire is no exception to this. After independence, she undertook the largest operation of voluntary geography to reduce spatial injustices and inequalities between regions of southern forest; "Operation San Pedro." Objective: To develop a region until completely enclosed and outside the "Ivorian economic miracle", the South-west of the country with as an anchor, creating a deep water port and a new city . Despite a largely collaborative project planning, San Pedro now houses one of the largest shantytowns of West Africa, thereby promoting fragmentation increasingly accentuated the city. We observe today in the city, less than 10% of real estate occupations having made the subject of a land registration and real property of an indefeasible right. This low percentage shows the failure of the system of land registration, the only legal way of land and property security. This raises the fundamental question of alternative ways to land and property security. Where necessary the development of addressing systems, the lack of general survey, used to locate plots from public space to improve the knowledge of the real estate that is to say, ensure public identification of property and existing rights and facilitating their security and their subsequent legal recognition. To this end, many African countries have launched in recent years, addressing operations to serve as an alternative to fiscal cadastre and slow and difficult projects "land regularization" promoting simplified forms and mostly literal identification plots.Therefore this thesis aims to establish in San Pedro, the interest of the use of an addressing system in the policies of land and property security. It seeks to understand the relationship between the address and the "right to the city", that is to say, the right of access to urban resources including homeownership and housing security. To understand these relationships, it is necessary to undertake an analysis in terms of spatial justice while emphasizing the importance of addressing as a tool for recognition of local land rights, especially social and economic integration populations.This approach opens new methodological perspectives to operate in the reform of land tenure and cadastral African

Abstract:

With the advent of techniques such as AJAX, the bar has been raised for what users have come to expect from web applications. However, although web application development often starts off simple, limitations in the web programming model might start to show when the business requirements become more complex. To successfully implement large-scale web application, software developers need to have knowledge of a big set of complementary technologies.

This thesis describes the implementation of a prototype of a central hotel property management system using web technologies. These technologies are then compared to an alternative set of technologies, which are used for implementing a second prototype; a stand-alone desktop client distributed using Java Web Start.

The thesis highlights some of the current problems with the web programming model and shows how the user experience can be improved by instead using desktop technologies.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to explore what software evaluation methods are currently available that can assist organizations and companies in procuring a software solution for some particular task or purpose for a specific type of business. The thesis is based on a real-world scenario where a company, Volvo Technology Corporation (VTEC), is in the process of selecting a new intellectual property management system for their patent department. For them to make an informed decision as to which system to choose, an evaluation of market alternatives needs to be done. First, a set of software evaluation methods and techniques are chosen for further evaluation. An organizational study, by means of interviews where questions are based on the ISO 9126-1 Software quality model, is then conducted, eliciting user opinions about the current system and what improvements a future system should have. The candidate methods are then evaluated based on the results from the organizational study and other pertinent factors in order to reach a conclusion as to which method is best suited for this selection problem. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is deemed the best choice.

After Sanofi acquired intellectual property (IP) from bankrupt Pelikan Technologies it desired to leverage the IP to identify a product concept to enhance the company's portfolio. To facilitate the project, a structured opportunity identification process was utilized. This process consisted of four major steps: Problem Framing, Idea Search, Screen, and Refine. Problem Framing formulated the innovation challenge. Idea Search sourced over two dozen potential opportunities that spanned markets and industries. Using a tournament selection approach, the Screen step filtered the opportunities according technical and strategic objectives. This selected an integrated blood measurement device as the opportunity of focus. This leverages the IP to simplify at-home blood testing while simultaneously reducing pain. The Refine step evaluated the opportunity using a framework that assessed markets, product, competitiveness, economics, and risk. The beachhead market is the diabetes market and potential follow-on markets are oncology, multiple sclerosis, rare diseases, and cardio-metabolic diseases. Key technology elements were assembled into a variety of conceptual approaches and evaluated according to market fit. This identified a conceptual approach that integrates all disposable elements (i.e. lancet and blood test element) into a single disposable cartridge that can be inserted into an electronically actuated meter. The projected financial returns in the beachhead market have a positive nominal NPV. NPV sensitivity was calculated based on estimated cost and revenue item variations. In all cases the NPV remains positive, but this highlighted key drivers of economic performance along with risks that need to be resolved in future development work. With key assumptions identified, Sanofi is in an excellent position to decide whether or not to pursue the identified opportunity. In addition, this project acts as a pilot for a structured opportunity identification process within the company and it is recommended that Sanofi adopt a similar process as part of its product development workflow. Finally, the company should adjust resources and financial commitment to ensure full cross-functional teams can be staffed to execute opportunity identification work. These improvements will enable the company to more effectively execute corporate entrepreneurial activities.

Abstract:
Within the property research community consideration of environmental risk in relation to a tenant's polluting activities has received little attention. Whilst the profession has begun to address environmental issues through various research initiatives, the study of current land uses causing environmental problems and, m particular, the consequences for property investors, is at a very early stage. Through the literature review, and the major empirical project undertaken in the course of this research, significant advancements have been made in this area. It has been possible to establish the following: that the property investment portfolios of financial institutions and property investment companies are unlikely to be completely devoid of properties occupied by tenants capable of causing environmental damage; where such damage occurs an increasing body of opinion suggests that landlords could be held criminally liable for fines and/or statutory clean up costs; even where the tenant has sole liability (perhaps because the liabilities arise from activities the tenant has undertaken at another site) there are income security repercussions for the property investor. Site specific case studies, where industrial properties were inspected by the researcher and discussed with environmental auditors, played an important part in obtaining the information to support these findings. Consequently, improvements in the environmental performance1 of tenants occupying their properties, possibly, through the implementation of an environmental management system (EMS), will provide investors with a less risky property investment vis a vis other similar property investment opportunities occupied by tenants displaying low levels of environmental awareness. The empirical work within this thesis also found that property investors are beginning to acknowledge the concept of EMSs by considering it in the stock selection process. The research introduces a new consideration into the catalogue of property investment risks, namely, the environmental performance of the tenant and the role of environmental management systems therein. This strengthens the existing academic literature on property investment risk, and as such provides an original and significant contribution to this field of knowledge.

Abstract:
Property Management, one functional area within Right-of-Way offices in state transportation agencies, is responsible for managing the property acquired for highway projects. These activities are data and document intensive and efficiency for performing them would be improved through the implementation of an information management system. Because of the geospatial nature of many of these activities, geographic information systems (GIS) would increase the effectiveness of this system. A literature review and survey were conducted to understand the current state of practice for the use of GIS and information management systems in Property Management. There is no identified comprehensive system that covers all Property Management activities. An initial step in developing a geospatially-enabled enterprise-level information management system, a logical model was developed. This included developing the business process diagram, business process models, and use case models based on the principles of systems engineering using the Computer Aided Software (CASE) Enterprise Architecture. Activities that would benefit from a geospatial component have been identified and included in the models. The developed models have been validated by working with PennDOT staff. The resulting model serves as a standard template for state transportation agencies and helps conceptualize the advantages of integration and interaction with other systems, and geospatial enablement prior to investment in an information management system.

Abstract:
Conventional approaches to resource management frequently invest authority in the hands of a technical management agency, with the result that the roles of manager and user are often cast in opposition as guardian and villain respectively. This thesis addresses cross-cultural contexts where this problem is exacerbated by the difficulties of communication and where management efforts are often frustrated by conflict. The objectives of the thesis are (i) to analyse the relationship between systems of property rights and systems of resource management, and (ii) to assess the potential for traditional communal property systems to provide a foundation for the cooperative management of local renewable resources held in common. Preliminary chapters set out the theoretical context for this work, tracing the linkage between conventional approaches to resource management and the prevailing western understanding of common property, particularly Hardin's (1968) 'tragedy paradigm'. An analysis of the theoretical challenges to this line of thinking leads to the identification of an alternative, cooperative approach to resource management that builds oh a refined definition of common property and which draws on empirical examples of traditional management systems from around the world. A case-study of the clam fishery on the West coast of Vancouver Island is introduced as an illustrative example of a resource management conflict in a complex setting, beset by a number of problems including a chronic lack of communication and pervasive uncertainty. Using Rein and Schön's concept of 'frames', the dispute is defined in terms of the conflicting perceptions of the many stakeholder groups and from this viewpoint, the present conflict is shown to reflect the characteristic weaknesses of the conventional approach. A solution to this conflict is sought through the the adaptation of the traditional resource use system of the aboriginal inhabitants of the area. By adapting the key characteristics of the traditional system to match the more complex demands of the many stakeholder groups, a set of founding principles is established and a skeleton framework for cooperative management is proposed. It is concluded that the conflict would best be resolved through a process of mediated negotiation that seeks to reduce frame conflict and encourage the growth of cooperation. A number of recommendations are offered that suggest how this process might evolve. On the basis of the findings of the case study, it is concluded that traditional communal property systems can provide a sound foundation for the cooperative management of common property resources but that on the West coast, a number of substantive changes must first come about. In particular there is a need to develop amongst the stakeholder groups a more refined definition of common property and a more refined understanding of its linkage to management systems. There is also an urgent need to close the widening gap between the rapidly changing legal realities of Native rights and the outstanding aboriginal land question on the one hand, and the political and social reality in which many of the stakeholders operate on the other. Finally, it is concluded that cooperative management systems of this type may well be appropriate in many similar resource management and international development contexts but that one principal barrier remains. If western society is unable to overcome the cultural inertia that prevents us from seeing beyond a simple choice of the strictly traditional on the one hand, or the strictly modern on the other, such promising opportunities will be lost. It is argued that this 'traditional/modern' dichotomy must be overcome if more creative and innovative approaches to the management of local renewable resources are to come to fruition.

Abstract:
This dissertation is a study of procurement systems in private property management companies. The writer initiates this idea of studying procurement systems as he finds different companies have very different procurement systems but an effective procurement system is a very important management issue which directly affects the performance of property management company. Through the research, several evaluation factors have been used to evaluate the performance of five different procurement systems through a procurement of cleaning service contract. For these five property management companies – Nan Fung, MTR, Wellborn, ISS and Knight Frank, they all have different procurement systems with different advantages and disadvantages. Although it eventually cannot find a perfectly effective procurement system, some factors like the use of technology and suitable approval system affect the effectiveness of procurement systems. The research also concluded that property management companies have to develop their own optimal procurement systems as different factors like goals of management and size of company make differences that one single system cannot fit in all. Furthermore, property management companies are recommended to regularly review their systems to ensure the procurement is suitable to the current environment and atmosphere.

Abstract:
Land information management in Ghana, as in many developing countries, remains a practice monopolised by public sector land administration agencies, which are known for being inefficient in delivering services that satisfy the needs of citizens. Under this monopolised regime, landed property related data gathering, processing through land registration, storage and dissemination of the information as final product for public use is entirely based on expert knowledge. Meanwhile, reliance on this kind of knowledge for land information management has continuously failed to promote smooth flow and a broad based access to reliable information for decision making by citizens. This failure has created a huge land information gap between market participants’ especially genuine and fraudulent landed property owners on one hand and potential buyers, lenders, and investors on the other hand. Thus, there is information asymmetry, which this study identifies as a major contributory factor to the challenges of uncertainties and high transaction costs that characterise dealings in urban real estate markets in Ghana. In order to verify how the information gap can be closed, this research adopts quantitative research methodology. The research mainly explores multinomial logistic regression model to test Economic Theory of Knowledge propounded by Hayek (1945) using Ghana as the context of study. Primary data was collected from potential land information suppliers within the private sector and existing users of land information as likely beneficiaries of an efficient land information management regime. Interrater agreement index and Pearson’s bivariate correlation analysis were used to analyse primary data gathered from users of land information in relation to land information needs and competition in land information harnessing. Following verification of the relationship between competition and economic knowledge, the key research finding is that there are two kinds of land information management knowledge and these are expert and entrepreneurial land information management knowledge. Thus, the research presents empirical evidence that out of four types of entrepreneurial knowledge verified, two types namely adaptive and cost-efficient knowledge are most likely to influence competition in land information supply. Also, competition is likely to deliver land information services that satisfy the needs of users of land information. Altogether, the research findings converge with the theory verified. The research outcome suggests that deregulation of state monopoly of land information harnessing for competition among private economic actors in Ghana is due. Removing this barrier is likely to promote dynamic competition in which licensed land information suppliers can use adaptive and cost efficient knowledge in gathering and disseminating land information at competitive prices. The study also provides evidence that all-in-one land information, which is broadly accessible at competitive prices is likely to be required to help address the problem of information asymmetry in the context of Ghana. For purposes of practice in the context of urban real estate markets in Ghana, a framework based on the research findings is developed and validated. The framework is proposed to inform policy decision on deregulation for competition in land information harnessing to enable the real estate sector function well. To kick start the process, deregulation in land data gathering and dissemination of land information is suggested.

Abstract:
Data centers are computing infrastructure facilities that house arrays of electronic racks containing high power dissipation data processing and storage equipment whose temperature must be maintained within allowable limits. In this research, the sustainable and reliable operations of the electronic equipment in data centers are shown to be possible through the Open Engineering Systems paradigm. A design approach is developed to bring adaptability and robustness, two main features of open systems, in multi-scale convective systems such as data centers. The presented approach is centered on the integration of three constructs: a) Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) based multi-scale modeling, b) compromise Decision Support Problem (cDSP), and c) robust design to overcome the challenges in thermal-fluid modeling, having multiple objectives, and inherent variability management, respectively. Two new POD based reduced order thermal modeling methods are presented to simulate multi-parameter dependent temperature field in multi-scale thermal/fluid systems such as data centers. The methods are verified to achieve an adaptable, robust, and energy efficient thermal design of an air-cooled data center cell with an annual increase in the power consumption for the next ten years. Also, a simpler reduced order modeling approach centered on POD technique with modal coefficient interpolation is validated against experimental measurements in an operational data center facility.

In recent years, the service industry spreads fast and competes flamingly. So is the property management industry. It is more difficult to survive during the economical depressed caused by the financial crisis for “Property management Industry”, a kind of orthodox service industry. So it has to promote its efficiency to respond the trend and the Plan. Therefore, “Property management industry” bound to improve the operational performance to survive. Harvard Business Review (HBR) mentioned that the enterprise could apply Balanced Scored card (BSC) to monitor the performance during the economical depressed. In the past, the performance evaluating put too much emphasis on the financial performance, but BSC specifies the strategies of the organization and simultaneously stresses the balance of the performance of financial and non-financial. Based on the above discussion, the research builds a performance evaluation system of “Property management Industry ” in Taiwan. Furthermore, based on the features of property management industry, we have not only built an internal performance evaluating module, but also built an external performance evaluating module, and integrated the two modules into a complete performance evaluation system. In this research, the researcher has built the more suitable KPI for us in Taiwan, based on the foreign property management industry and by many expert interviews. The indicator weight was decided by the Analysis Network Processing (ANP) and the questionnaires filled out by the experts. The researcher has also built a friendly user interface to make the proprietors and the superintendents use easily. In this system, it also imported FUZZY Algorithms to evaluate the performance comprehensively, and calculated a precise grades of performance. After completing the performance evaluation system, we applied it to a case property management company in Taiwan and confirmed the availability. We expect that property management companies in Taiwan can apply this performance evaluation system to monitor their operating performances, reach the purposes of assisting decision-making and advance the competition power.

In line with the rapid economic development, the transformation and change of social pattern and the alteration of financial environment, trusteeship, from the original property management system, has gradually evolved diversified functions including managing money, facilitating economic construction, maintaining social security and promoting public welfare and so on. The global financial crisis not only triggered the worldwide economic earthquake but also resulted in the reorganization of most people's wealth, even from zero. Further to the change of era and the advancement of society, the application of trust has developed diversified models to meet public demands. By using the approach of questionnaire and taking different proprietary classes as respondents, this study explored the desire of different gender, age groups in establishing trust property after experiencing the financial crisis. The findings showed that most of the respondents, despite of sex, age, proprietary class, agreed that trust had the function of safeguarding assets and trusteeship could help businesses or individuals to transfer assets. Ultimately, after concluding current social problems, this study put forward the suggestion that future trusteeship can be applied to disadvantaged groups or even the support and care of elderly people.

The problem of property management has been quite important and actual(practical) problem. No matter where it is, like in the company, school or public institution, the problem has been perplexing the management department. Because the property is not just a subject name, the connotation behind it is also the part that can''t be neglected. The traditional database system can’t offer the detail of property a good description so many resource waste problems appear. Take some situations taking place in school for example, the number of the defeasible computers which the school addresses every year is quite huge, but the reason of obsolescence varies from case to case;probably just single part of the computer is broken. From another angle, if we make good use of the rest of parts that aren’t broken, probably we can create a new property and save many precious resources. And the problem we face now is how to set up an effective management system and to renew these surplus parts. Unified Modeling Language (UML) can give a complete description to the data and can even show the operation process of data renewal. As for the data scattering everywhere, UML provide a more efficient kind of management method. In order to reach the target of property automation of the component reorganization, UML is also used to make the visual description in the technique of Simulated Agents. This thesis will actually make a property management system in campus. And for software modeling, the sketch in UML is also very fit to describe the abstract ideas and entity deployment, and all above will become extra advantages of UML when being used. RUP is the method that we adopt in developing system, and UML is our tool. According to the definition of RUP, this thesis will be divided into four stages, a thesis structure''s need to pick, need analysis, design and actually make to construct a fit system in a proper order way. For the structure of system, the three stages(MVC), model layer, the layer of the data access and display layer will be taken into practice.

To identify some special materials in order to conceive these messages of materials usually require to spend much time and more resources. To achieve this destination, governmental offices and some private institutions have proffered various approaches to reduce the price of product and raise the efficiency of fabrication. Information/data is processed in digital format may be one of effective methods to overcome these problems mentioned above but at expanse of higher investment cost. Application of wireless radio frequency technology, however, is capable of vanquishing these problems. Radio frequency identification (RFID) has been paid more attention in recent years due to its capacities of data processing at short notice. The objective of this study is to implement a system which is constructed by associating a RFID, SQL data base with personal digital assistance (PDA) to form a school property auditing system for which it can enhance efficiency of audit and provide convenience of equipment management.

Intellectual Property has become an important source of income for enterprises and Intellectual Property Rights Management has now turned mainstream in management. Through management of intellectual property rights, enterprises not only can protect the hard-won research results and relevant intellectual properties being infringed upon but also turn it as a weapon in competition for promoting booming development of the entire industry and accumulate national competitiveness. Taiwan’s Industrial Development Bureau officially launched the Taiwan Intellectual Property Management System (TIPS) in 2007 in a move to standardize the Standard Operation Procedure of intellectual property management for enterprises of different scales with uneven proportion of investment in intellectual property management. Thus, enterprises can carry out systematic management of intellectual property rights in accordance with their overall policies and objectives, thereby retain, accumulate and convert the intellectual properties researched by employees into intellectual capital and form an overall planned system of the interrelated flows and the entire organization from top to bottom and set a direction for intellectual property rights management. However, implementation by execution units alone without complete ancillary measures by the government and vigorous publicity in education, or if the private enterprises take a wait-and-see attitude this fairly good management system will have no supporting point. TIPS has provided a fairly good paradigm for enterprises which have the intention of properly planning, managing and employing means for intellectual property management but yet do not know how to do it. This research has carried out case studies on enterprises which have introduced TIPS 2005-2006 and explored introduction of TIPS into the various industry organizations and set up internal systems. The research attempts to present relevant recommendations for revision of TIPS so that after merging into the current ISO, TIPS will become a reference guideline for the international intellectual property management system. The research also cites examples of IBM, Hitachi and other major multinational enterprises, and explores the current situation of intellectual property rights management by the US, Japanese and Chinese enterprises as reference for our government and private enterprises, thereby promoting and improving our intellectual property management system.
