In the conventional bidding system, there is a relationship between local governments and private companies. In that relationship, the local government had an authoritative position. However, in public-private partnership projects, the relationship between public and private bodies are more equal, as both provide capital for the business. The bodies conduct business as partners sharing a public project. The situation is similar to the relationship between lenders and borrowers in sharing economies. During the Great East Japan Earthquake, local government infrastructure was damaged. Private partners were sought to help with repairs. Elements of sharing were verified in two consecutive cases in Miyako, Iwate Prefecture, a setting heavily damaged by the earthquake. The current study considered how partnerships in shared public projects were established. The results of the interview survey were analyzed revealing that ‘relationship’, ‘communication’ and ‘presence’ for sharing were key elements.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129177135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some technologies spread quickly across an entire market, other technologies are first established in one market segment, and then move on to further segments. Knowledge about the diffusion of a technology can help managers with their assessment and is therefore of major importance. Recently, [1] suggested a method to measure diffusion by means of an informetric approach, namely the tf-lag-idf. Nevertheless, shortcomings such as a high degree of manual effort and subjective coding decrease the reliability of this method. As an alternative, we develop a method based on topic modeling in accordance with [2] and test our method by using the same dataset as [1]. Applying our method to the case of RFID technology produces application fields such as logistics, payment & finance, or medicine. Comparing the results of topic modeling and tf-lag-idf based on input and output criteria sheds some light on both methods. As a consequence, both approaches enable a semi-automated analysis of diffusion based on text-mining.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130750403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using traditional narrative literature review and secondary sources, we reviewed and analyzed the historical transformation of Nokia's core business, leadership strategies, business architecture, R&D policy, innovation strategy, product lunch, and smartphones recognition and demonstration. We identified various strategic gaps that the previous analytical studies seemingly have missed to identify and generalize. Therefore, we add to the literature a bundle of the lessons learned that chronologically explain how Nokia failed to create and sustain competitive advantages, particularly in the smartphone market. We concluded that the problem at Nokia was not the lack of innovation, but rather, it was the lack of a precise technology forecasting, and misunderstanding that the needs in smartphone market were not just about demonstrating a mobile phone that makes calls, texts and connects to the web, but also the platform that operates all these functions together. Since Nokia's brand name is recently back in the market through a newly licensed firm (HMD Global), we further discuss how likely the new Nokia's smartphones will possibly compete and plausibly succeed in a very well-established market.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116964250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within the framework of supporting decision making, this research deals with (1) fake information filtering to accurate foresight, (2) credit risk assessment, and (3) prediction based on critical signal detection. At first, financial data including news, SNS, the financial statements is collected and then, among them, fake information such as rumors and fake news is refined by author analysis and the rule-based approach. Second, the credit risk is assessed by opinion mining and sentiment analysis for both social data and news in the form of sentimental score and trend of documents for each stock. Third, a risk signal in stock investment is detected in accordance with the credit risk derived from opinion mining and financial risk identified by the financial database. Consequently, the possibility of credit events such as delisting and bankruptcy will be forecast in the near future based on the risk signal. The proposed algorithm helps investors to monitor relevant information objectively through fake information filtering as well as to make correct judgments in stock investment.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"159 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131867132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When developing a curriculum relevant to the needs of the students and today's technology industries, it is important to identify the prior knowledge and experience that students bring into the program. For this study, an online survey was utilized to collect primary data from 2013 to 2017 from 289 newly enrolled technology management students. The study examined their entry level of knowledge through multiple questions focused on four competencies: strategic management of technology, management of technological change, quality management of technology, and assessment and evaluation of technology. The study found that while two competencies showed an increase in the first-year students' knowledge over the five-year period, two competencies consistently showed a low level of knowledge throughout the same timeframe. The results also highlighted gaps in students' competencies when they initially entered a technology management undergraduate program. The significance of this study will help academic institutions improve their curricula, which ultimately will better equip students with core competencies that contribute positively to their academic and professional success.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"221 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131965537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to assist them to remain part of the community, home care services are being focused on enabling elderly people to receive nursing and care services in their familiar home and community environment. However, with the increasing need for home nursing care services, there is an insufficient number of nursing staff to provide service to these elderly people. Further, nursing staff may need to work on tight schedules to fulfill the extra needs of the elderly, and may affect their working performance and result in poor service satisfaction. In this paper, an intelligent service planning system (ISPS) is designed for facilitating decision making in effective home care service scheduling. The Genetic Algorithm (GA) approach is applied in the system to formulate the service schedule for each nursing staff by considering the estimated time for serving the elderly. In order to validate the feasibility of the proposed system, a case study was conducted in a healthcare center. The results show that the service satisfaction from the elderly and the work satisfaction of the nurses are both increased.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132244221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In times of increasingly short development and life cycles of products on the one hand and an increasing degree of product complexity and individuality on the other hand, the right timing of the development and market introduction of physical and digital product innovations has become the key success factor for companies. The forecast of the diffusion of innovative product technologies and in particular the tipping point after which they significantly penetrate the market is therefore of paramount importance both for new and established companies. Research has found answers on how to identify technological change, yet the prediction of the timing of technological change remains unsolved. Traditional life cycle models usually measure the development of products and technologies based on one criterion such as sales or performance and lack in the definition of variables and their measurement. However, to predict the diffusion of innovative product technologies multiple factors and their operationalization have to be taken into account in technology-push-market-pull systems. On the technology side, patents and publications have been acknowledged as valuable indicators for progress. On the market side, appropriate indicators still need to be identified. Therefore, in this paper a quantitative scientometric analysis of past innovations has been performed using Google Trends, a service which has recently taken on greater significance. The analysis yields a significant correlation.","PeriodicalId":444748,"journal":{"name":"2018 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134223070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
