Recently, scholars of postcolonial technoscience have suggested an important research direction: understand the mutual influence of the local notions of the colonized on the technoscience of the colonizer, especially the influence of the local notions on the colonizer’s technoscience (reverse...

There is a recent surge in interest in understanding worker participation as a theoretical construct. A major challenge in this regard which scholars identified decades ago, is construct validity. This paper revisits this challenge by reviewing definitions and the multi-level nomological network...

For stationary time series of nominal categorical data or ordinal categorical data (with arbitrary ordered numberings of the categories), autocorrelation does not make much sense. Biswas and Guha (2009) used mutual information as a measure of association and introduced the concept of auto-mutual...

Suppose S is the unknown number of species in a community, and the sample consists of m distinct species, fj species are represented j times in the sample, j = 1; 2; ... ; k. Let f0 be the number of missing species in the sample. Several existing approaches are available for estimating f0 (and...

In recent years, there has been a tremendous continuing attention to- wards the modelling and analysis of longitudinal data, although not much attention is paid to the ordinal categorical data. The problem becomes more complicated if the observation at every longitudinal time point is...

Open innovation is a paradigm that is based on the concept of availability of abundant knowledge outside the boundaries of organizations. This study identified the influence of degree of openness, strength of appropriability regime, and project management maturity on the performance of open...

Open innovation paradigm considers that in order to advance technologies and markets, firms can and should leverage internal and external knowledge, ideas, expertise, and paths to market. This is in contrast to the traditional or closed model of innovation management, where organizations usually...

For stationary time series of nominal categorical data or ordinal categorical data (with arbitrary ordered numberings of the categories), autocorrelation does not make much sense. One can alternatively think of using some entropic measures, of which a measure introduced by Havrda and Charvat...

Open innovation paradigm considers that, in order to advance technologies and markets, firms can and should leverage internal and external knowledge, ideas, expertise, and paths to market. Open innovation being an emerging area of study, the current body of literature is not extensive enough for...

Mutual information is a useful extension of the correlation coecient to study the dependence among multiple random processes. Hybrid processes are multivariate time series with some components continuous time series and the rest point processes. Assessment of the strength of the dependence...
