Purpose: Extant research on business models does not address the question of business model evolution. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore how we can capture the dynamism of business models. Approach: We examine the applicability of the principles of complexity theory as an...

В условиях необходимости постоянно внедрять новые бизнес-инициативы экономический рост и процветание организаций все больше зависят от конкурентоспособности...

In modern statistics, the robust estimation of parameters of a regression hyperplane is a central problem. Robustness means that the estimation is not or only slightly affected by outliers in the data. In this paper, it is shown that the following robust estimators are hard to compute: LMS, LQS,...

It is a well-known fact that there exists an ever increasing number of problems for which, despite the efforts of many inventive and persistent researchers, it seems virtually impossible to find efficient algorithms. In this Situation, the theory of computational complexity may provide helpful...

This work nests the Agent-Based macroeconomic perspective into the earlier history of macroeconomics. We discuss how the discipline in the 70's took a perverse path relying on models grounded on fictitious rational representative agent in order to try to pathetically circumvent aggregation and...

Most considerations of knowledge management focus on corporations and, until recently, considered knowledge to be objective, stable, and asocial. In this paper we wish to move the focus away from corporations, and examine knowledge and national innovation systems. We argue that the knowledge...

Through the critical analysis of the extant literature, it is observed that Simulation is widely used as a research method in Natural Sciences, Engineering and Social Sciences, in addition to argumentation and formalisation as the third way of carrying out research. Simulation is not so widely...

Verteilte hypermediale Lernanwendungen sind Echtzeitanwendungen. Im Anwendungsablauf, insbesondere während der Navigation, sind nachladebedingte zeitliche Verzögerungen zu vermeiden. Prefetching stellt eine Möglichkeit der Reduktion zeitlicher Verzögerungen dar. Die vorgelegte Arbeit...
