Hemais, Carlos Alberto. "Firm-level transfer of technology : an empirical study of modes of international commercialisation of technology in British industry." Thesis, University of Warwick, 1992. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/3840/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines the process of technology transfer in British firms. The literature on modes, causes and effects of technology transfer says little about how British firms transfer their technology abroad. A firm-level study was chosen because most international technology transfer happens not between countries but between firms, even if these firms are in different countries. The present research uses data from British industry, which is still one of the major sources of technology in the world and its firms represent an important example of the role of technology supplier.

Isha, Ahmad Shahrul Nizam. "Occupational health and safety practices in the petrochemical industries of Malaysia." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2012. http://etheses.nottingham.ac.uk/4155/.

Abstract:
The petrochemical industry in Malaysia has been growing rapidly in recent years. The development of this highly hazardous industry largely depends on high health and safety standards. Since the early 1990s, health and safety legislation introduced in the country, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (OSHA) and the Control of Industrial Major Accident Hazards (CIMAH) Regulations 1996 have aimed in improving standards across a number of occupational sectors. A mixed-method research design was used to explore occupational health and safety practices in the petrochemical industry in

Abstract:
Currently, mobility is a significantly pervasive term; the concept is being widely used in multiple discussions including social, economic, political, and technological debates. However, the theoretical grounding of the concept is surprising unstable. This thesis aims to offer a theoretical foundation for the concept of mobility, particularly in contemporary work contexts. With support of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in general and mobile technology in particular, contemporary work activities are increasingly distributed and dynamically conducted in various locations.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the attitudes of human resource professionals towards human resource information systems (HRIS) in order to better understand their enablers and effects on individuals and organisations. Focusing on factors influencing HRIS acceptance, the study identifies key dimensions relating to HRIS benefits specifically perceived usefulness and user satisfaction, organisational, social, and technical drivers of acceptance, and the consequences of satisfaction with HRIS for organisational behaviour. Drawing mainly on the theory of reasoned action TRA, the technology acceptance mod

Leite, Rocha Pedro. "Novel approaches to radiotherapy treatment scheduling." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2011. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/12281/.

Full text
Abstract:
Radiotherapy represents an important phase of treatment for a large number of cancer patients. It is essential that resources used to deliver this treatment are used efficiently. This thesis approaches the problem of scheduling treatments in a radiotherapy centre. Data about the daily intake of patients are collected and analysed. Several approaches are presented to create a schedule every day. The first presented are constructive approaches, developed due to their simplicity and low computational requirements. The approaches vary the preferred treatment start, machine utilisation reservation

Abstract:
This thesis alms to develop a comprehensive understanding of cross-project learning in multiple-project environments. Cross-project learning is the process through which technologies are transferred and reused within organisations. Recent years have seen a growing interest in cross-project learning. However, research in this area has emphasised the rational, classical approach to crossproject learning. Also, the majority of research on cross-project learning has largely been on the automobile industry in Japan and the USA. Thirdly, research in this field has failed to assess the impact that cr

Boyer, Steven Andrew. "Playermaking : the institutional production of digital game players." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2014. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/4925/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis investigates how the digital games industry conceptualises its audiences in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Drawing upon research focused on other media industries, it argues in favour of a constructionist view of the audience that emphasises its discursive form and institutional uses. The term “player” is institutionally constructed in the same way, not referring to the actual people playing games, but to an imagined entity utilised to guide industrial decisions. Using both desk research and information gathered from expert interviews with digital game development p

Abstract:
The thesis appraises certain key processes – albeit rather limited in number and scope – widely assumed to be associated with assessing the role of technological capability building in developing country (DC) firms. The latter are affected by their DC status on both the demand side (e.g. by rapid growth of the economy via consumption and trade) and the supply side (of technological catch-up etc.). Such broad considerations set the scene for our specific study. In this thesis, the component of technological capabilities that we highlight by studying local integrated product providers is the cap

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the impact of Information Communication Technologies (mobile telephony, computer and internet facilities) on the performance of small and medium businesses in developing economy. It is a mixed-method research involving a firm survey and also a number of semi-structured interviews with firms operating in both the affluent and disadvantaged districts of Lagos State, Nigeria. Much of the earlier empirical research and theoretical debate have taken a rather simplistic approach to examining the impact of ICT on socio-economic change by according privilege to either technolo
