Applications and impacts of blockchain-based solutions in the wine supply chain: a systematic literature review
No full textPurpose: This paper systematically explores the consequences of the adoption of blockchain technology (BCT) in the wine supply chain, aiming to offer a comprehensive overview of its advantages within the dynamic and complex wine sector. Design/methodology/approach: This study deploys the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) method to provide a comprehensive examination of the effects of BCT adoption in the wine supply chain (WSC) by guiding the conduct and reporting of the systematic review. Findings: The findings identify eight primary areas of advantage in blockchain adoption, illuminating its transformative impact on the wine industry. In addition, an examination of the technical attributes and applications of 17 existing blockchain-based platforms in the wine supply chain contributes valuable insights for strategic decision-making by wineries. Originality/value: This study, through a systematic literature review, contributes to understand the potential BCT interactions at different stages of the WSC and to highlight some of the lesser known benefits for wineries
Innovation and Transformation of Service Business Models through Cloud Technology to Achieve Co-Creation Value within the Service Ecosystem
No full textThe primary purpose of this study is to use the principles of service science as a foundation approach to provide a path for innovation and transformation service business models (SBMs) through the power of cloud technology within the service ecosystem. In addition, this research, contributes to improve the understanding for the business dynamics behind this transformation in such
a way that to explain the processes for GDL to transition to SDL business innovation models. Moreover, this paper seeks to answer the question that how cloud to create value in the context of SBMs within the service ecosystem? This paper is one of the first attempts to integrate these disciplines, so that it offers an original contribution by propose the novel trend in the form of a path with 5 steps for SBMs innovation and transformation and also co-create value. This research has a qualitative approach to seek to answer the research questions that has been adopted based on Kitchenham et al. (2009) seven steps guidelines for conducting a systematic literature review. This paper is the first systematic reviews on the business models that is supported through cloud technology so that conducted using the 45 research articles shortlisted were discussed and analyzed and finally on that basis, a path with 5 steps is provided to answer the research questions. Moreover, this study provides insights
to SMEs, ICT vendors, service providers and government agencies to align the business models with cloud services for the most benefits. It also to act as a guide for practitioners to seek and apply such models in their business in order to produce smart solutions that can provision even smarter services
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
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
BLOCKCHAIN-DRIVEN OPEN INNOVATION: HOW DO MANAGERIAL TIES AND ABSORPTIVE CAPACITY MATTER FOR INNOVATIVE PERFORMANCE? EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM THE ITALIAN WINE INDUSTRY
No full textConversación con Juan Sabbagh P. :la arquitectura como hecho y la disciplina como suceso
No full textWith a sparkling, young and optimistic approach, Juan Sabbagh points out a critical view of architects, and their training aimed at specialization. He stresses that architects do not take real advantage of the opportunity that the formation process offers. Being this, the second interview given to Revista De Arquitectura, Juan Sabbagh (recipient of the National Award of Architecture, 2002) focuses now on academic issues and on his experience as President of the Chilean Architectural Association. Previously, Revista De Arquitectura interviewed him in relation to his professional work.Con una mirada fresca, joven, llena de optimismo, Juan Sabbagh P. critica al gremio de los arquitectos, a la formación especializada, diciendo que los arquitectos no saben aprovechar las oportunidades que abre su formación. Ésta es la segunda entrevista que le hace Revista De Arquitectura al arquitecto. La entrevista anterior estaba enfocada al desarrollo de su oficina y su arquitectura, mientras que la presente abordará temas de corte gremial y académico, a propósito de su labor como Presidente del Colegio de Arquitectos de Chile y enfunción del tópico central del presente número: Certezas e Incertidumbres
