Tecnolog?as y nuevo equipamiento para la producci?n arrocera en Cuba
No full textSe realiz? un proyecto de investigaci?n con el objetivo de investigar, dise?ar y evaluar las fuentes
energ?ticas, implementos y equipamiento necesarios para establecer la tecnolog?a mecanizada que
mejores resultados brindara en la producci?n de arroz en empresas estatales especializadas y ?reas
populares. Se evaluaron m?quinas e implementos de producci?n nacional y de importaci?n factibles de
utilizarse con efectividad en la producci?n de arroz, algunas de ellas desarrolladas por los CAI Arroceros
con la participaci?n del IIMA o mediante la compra en otros pa?ses. Los estudios realizados han
permitido conformar las variantes mecanizadas para las labores de preparaci?n de suelo en seco y
fangueo, acondicionamiento de ?reas para el aniego, siembra, control de malezas, fertilizaci?n, cosecha,
siega, trilla y transportaci?n de la producci?n de arroz en la presente etapa.

A TRIBUTE ON THE 25 TH ANNIVERSARY TO THE INTERNATIONAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION (IIMA) AND ITS CO-FOUNDERS: C. E. TAPIE ROHM JR., PATRICK J. MCINTURFF JR. AND WALTER T. STEWART JR.
No full textIIMA is a special place for all of us. For twenty-five years, it has served as a forum for all of us to gather together to engage in intellectual conversations, to disseminate knowledge, and to renew our profession. Over the many years, IIMA has helped many us with our tenure and promotion, and has made our manuscripts available worldwide through our publication outlets, the three IIMA journals and the seasonal conference proceedings. Also for many of us, IIMA is not only a forum for academics, but also a place for friendship, family and fun. Many of us have become life-long friends and some of our families are known to each other. We eat, drink, walk, chat, dance and laugh. No matter it is in New York, Houston or Chicago, or it is in Beijing, Dublin or Amsterdam, we all had fun and enjoyed the collegiality, professionalism and friendship that IIMA has brought to us. As we gather here today to celebrate the 25 th IIMA anniversary, we would like to thank and offer tributes to our long-time friends, the IIMA co-founders, C. E. Tapie Rohm Jr., Patrick McInturff and Walt Stewart. Many IIMAers who have run or helped run our annual conferences, served or are serving as IIMA Officers, and Journal Editors. Tributes also go to them. In a private conversation, my friend, Warren Adis, Professor at Iona College in New York made a comment on organizing conferences, he said, “Folks don’t realize how much work is involved until they actually run one themselves.” I believe we all would agree. No matter you are a regular IIMA attendee or an occasional visitor to our conferences, we thank you, too, for your support of what we do at IIMA. In this sense, we are here to celebrate each other and the entity that has brought us together, the IIMA.
In a series of remarks this afternoon, presented by colleagues who have attended IIMA conferences over many years, we will enliven the specialness of the IIMA that offered a place for all of us to come together and make a contribution to our disciplines, to become mature intellectually, and to learn from one another. We each have become better because of IIMA and the many people who have contributed to it. Presented now, in alphabetical order of last names of colleagues, are several tributes to the IIMA founders, Tapie Rohm Jr., Patrick McInturff and Walt Stewart in celebration of the25th anniversary of IIMA
Models in Management Science: Issues in Implementation
Get PDFBased on an empirical analysis of several real-life case studies in this paper, we identify the key drivers for maximizing the chances of successful implementation of management science models. The choice of (technique) methodology used, model sophistication, top management involvement, training and orientation of middle management cadre in the organization, intensity of competition, perceived fear and anxiety in implementing the new solution procedure by the front-line staff, and the involvement of an implementation agency in the organization emerge as some of the key elements that influence the effectiveness of the implementation process. Based on the experience of these situations, we propose a broad framework for an effective implementation of management science model.
Applications of the GDELT project in heritage conservation: the case of the IIMA (L. Kahn)
Get PDFL a difusión a través de las redes sociales populariza el hecho arquitectónico.
Su visibilidad contribuye a despertar una sensibilidad internacional, que
en muchos casos finaliza con decisiones políticas y sociales en beneficio
de la conservación de la arquitectura. El presente artículo aborda, como caso de
estudio, la reciente propuesta de demolición del Indian Institute of Management
de Ahmedabad (IIMA) de Louis Kahn en India. A través de este ejemplo se
estudia de qué manera los mensajes que circulan en los medios de comunicación
digitales pueden ser dirigidos para conseguir algún aspecto relacionado con su
conservación. La metodología de la investigación ha sido fundamentalmente
experimental, en la que se han considerado distintas variables: la realidad
arquitectónica del Indian Institute of Management de Ahmedabad (IIMA), las
noticias publicadas en distintos medios de comunicación digitales, y el tiempo
que han permanecido las noticias en activo. Se emplea el Proyecto GDELT como
herramienta para analizar las narrativas comunicativas presentes en la red de
internet.The diffusion through social networks popularizes the architectural fact. Its visibility
contributes to awakening an international sensitivity that in many cases ends with
political and social decisions for the benefit of the conservation of architecture. This
article addresses, as a case study, the recent demolition proposal of Louis Kahn’s IIMA,
in Ahmedabad (India). On this example, it is studied how the messages that circulate in
the digital media can be directed to achieve some aspect related to their conservation.
The methodology of this research has been fundamentally experimental, in which
different variables have been considered: the architectural reality of the building (the
IIMA); the news published in different digital media; and how long the news has been
active. The GDELT Project is used as a tool to analyze the communicative narratives
present on the internet network.HUM-1056 Universidad de Granada

Foreign R&D centres in India : an analysis of their size, structure and implications
Get PDFThe main objective of the working paper series of the IIMA is to help faculty members, research staff and doctoral students to speedily share their research findings with professional colleagues and test their research findings at the pre-publication stage. IIMA is committed to maintain academic freedom. The opinion(s), view(s) and conclusion(s) expressed in the working paper are those of the authors and not that of IIMA.The study measures contributions of multinational corporations (MNCs) to the generation of innovations from India. The focus is on innovations that are carried out in foreign research and development (R&D) centres. Analysis of the survey data suggests that the primary objective of MNC R&D centers in India is not market seeking; the resource seeking dimension seems to dominate. Development of new technologies for global and regional markets is more important than modifying/adapting technologies for local market needs or manufacturing requirements. In that sense, the activities of these R&D centers are more ‘knowledge augmenting’ than ‘knowledge exploiting.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
