In this article, we draw on an in-depth case study of iFLYTEK, a pioneer in the AI industry of Hefei, Anhui province in China, investigating how the platform-based firm fosters AI innovations by aligning the quadruple helix model. The article finds that the university helix has changed from technology support to ecosystem participation. The role of the government helix has shifted from being the resources supplier and solutions buyer to resources coordinator and solutions coregulator. The industry helix has been upgraded from the mode of benefiting individual entrepreneurs to the mode of empowering the whole industry. The user helix transitioned from the innovation feedback to the innovation input by focusing on interdependence among tiers of user in AI solutions. This article unravels the importance of the quadruple helix model in the context of AI innovations, where the sociotechnical meaning of AI converges as different helices closely collaborate as a whole through emerging roles. It also contributes to the existing helix model by introducing the platform-based firm as the driver that blends elements of AI innovations and the roles of different helices.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142524180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By generalizing the notion of digital twins, we review, develop, and conceptualize the (emerging) notion of digital twins of supply chains (DTofSC). While digital twins is an active research area with data available from numerous industry projects, its application to supply chains is just emerging as a cross discipline stemming from decades of maturing the notion of digital supply chains. While digital twins has been used in supply chains, the notion of digitalization of supply chains is only a nascent area, with imprecise definitions beyond key metaphors (e.g., visibility, traceability); as we conceptualize, the overall vision is to create technical and organizational mechanisms enabling any supply chain to be monitored and controlled from, e.g., a dashboard screen. After a literature review on the intersections between digital supply chains, digital twins, and digital technologies (e.g., blockchain), we propose a synthesis systems architecture of DTofSC, identify a key requirement gap (that we term addressability), and ground our contributions, and in the absence of real-world use-cases in practice, we apply our conceptualized systems architecture to battery recycling based on feedback from an industry-targeted workshop.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142442989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This transformation is caused by new customer demands, legal standards, and technological innovations, which lead to an increasing amount of electronic control units, software, and features. To address the consequent software-related challenges, automotive manufacturers are adopting methodologies like software product-line engineering, electrics/electronics platforms, and product generation engineering. However, each of these methodologies relies on an own vocabulary, necessitating a unification of the divergent understandings and interpretations of key terms and definitions. In this article, we investigate and discuss a terminological framework that provides a common ground for specifying a unified product-structuring concept. For this purpose, we conducted a systematic mapping study to develop a framework of existing terms and definitions used to describe product-structuring concepts in software, electrics/electronics, as well as mechanical engineering. We discuss the differences and commonalities of the terminologies to help practitioners in integrating and applying product-structuring concepts as well as to guide future research.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142452770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Problemistic search theory posits that the serious problems faced by firms may trigger their problemistic search scope for solutions through two processes: discovery process and evaluation process. Our theorization explains why external shocks such as the COVID-19 create novel or radical problems for firms, and thus trigger firms’ problemistic search scope for solutions in the discovery process, increasing firms’ willingness to delve into first-time digital innovation. Furthermore, problemistic search theory also suggests that in the evaluation process, the evaluation of solutions depends on both the firm's own experience (i.e., firm's prior R&D) and the experiences of others (i.e., firms’ social linkages). To be specific, cognitive entrenchment and inertia embedded in the firm's prior research and development (R&D) may, however, pose barriers to the evaluation of first-time digital innovation. Moreover, a firm's linkage with digital firms can potentially alleviate such cognitive barriers. Using a difference-in-differences design based on data from Chinese published firms, we find empirical support for our theoretical predictions. This research deepens our understanding of the literature on firms’ digital innovation, problemistic search theory, and R&D.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142434631","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were collected through 23 semi-structured interviews with managers, engineers and directors, and content analysis was performed using NVIVO software. The resulting coding structure revealed the following categories: organizational and cultural issues, professional and knowledge issues, technological and operational issues, cost issues, BIM specific issues, design issues, data issues, and information and communication issues. The findings highlighted the most significant challenge as the lack of BIM knowledge or expertise. Additionally, an important enabler in the design phase is the accuracy of data provided by BIM, which enhances project management analysis.

In other words, selecting-the-best ideas from a pool of ideas should be equivalent to eliminating-the-worst ones until only the best remain. However, our explorative experimental investigation regarding the accuracy of these two idea evaluation processes indicates major differences. Specifically, our results suggest that the elimination process outperforms the selection process in terms of the probability of selecting the highest quality innovation ideas. Our text analysis further reveals that when participants are asked to do the selection or elimination tasks, their cognitive perception of each idea tends to focus on different aspects of the ideas, namely, the positive (pros) vs. negative (cons) sides of the same idea. We use a 2 × 2 experimental design by priming the participants with pros and cons information in selecting-the-best and eliminating-the-worst scenarios. Surprisingly, we find that with pros, the selection process outperforms the elimination process, whereas with cons, the efficacies of the two idea evaluation processes are equivalent. Additionally, we find that the efficacy of the selection process does not change whether the participant has pros or cons, yet the efficacy of the elimination process is significantly improved with cons compared to with pros. Based on analysis of the experimental data, we present and test an explanatory model in which the evaluation accuracy, measured in terms of the percentage of matches, is influenced by factors, such as the evaluation process, response duration, and the moderating effect of cognitive biases.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142368312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Health awareness and the health and financial impacts of the pandemic have altered households’ evacuation and sheltering calculus. The timing and volume of evacuees have significant implications for configuring available transportation infrastructures and means and opening shelters and refuge of last resort as the storm materializes and degrades the built environment. This article asks five questions about the effect of medical fragility, health risk awareness, health and financial impacts of the pandemic, and the availability of noncongregate shelters on evacuation and sheltering behavior. The empirical analysis uses data from a survey of 2200 households conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic to gauge risk perceptions under the compound threat of a hurricane and pandemic. Takeaways from our findings have significant implications for managers and policymakers and indicate, first, that medically fragile households are more likely to evacuate than nonmedically fragile households. Second, households with health concerns about the pandemic are more likely to evacuate regardless of medical fragility. Third, the expected sheltering of these segments varies depending on the facilities provided by the authorities. Anticipating the behavior of population groups allows managers to deploy technology that supports effective resource configuration and coordination and provides effective emergency service during evacuation planning and execution.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142443024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we aim to identify an efficient knowledge-sharing network, thereby reducing costs and enhancing suppliers' knowledge levels. By challenging the common assumption that companies with higher knowledge levels are always the primary contributors and have more added value for cooperation, this study highlights their potential inefficiencies and higher sharing costs. The proposed model promotes the integration of diverse knowledge sources within the supply chain, emphasizing the importance of horizontal integration. It advocates for comprehensive knowledge sharing among suppliers and organizations to enhance supply chain efficiency, collaboration, and performance while reducing costs. Quantitative analysis demonstrates that knowledge sharing significantly increases supply chain integration, and the study endorses the use of multiobjective mathematical programming for optimal decision making in scheduling. The results emphasize the value of collaborating with closely aligned companies to minimize knowledge-sharing costs and enhance broader organizational collaboration. Furthermore, the introduced model proposes practical execution scheduling and knowledge-sharing processes, as evidenced by a case study, leading to effective execution scheduling, reduced costs, improved communication, strengthened collaboration, and increased supply chain efficiency. Overall, this article contributes to research in supply chain management and knowledge-sharing models, enabling them to navigate constraints and market dynamics to improve supply chain performance through effective knowledge sharing and collaboration.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142324242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
