Dynamic Capabilities and Ambidexterity: How are These Concepts Related?

Innovation and knowledge creation: How are these concepts related?

Innovation and knowledge creation—these two concepts have a strong relationship but this relationship has not been examined systematically. This paper reviews the important theoretical work in both streams of research, highlighting the fundamental similarities and differences. Four major models of innovation are compared, and the distinction between radical and incremental innovation is examine...

What dynamic capabilities are needed in ERP activity?

Although many scholars have proposed all kinds of key successful factors (KSFs) for ERP activity to smoothly enhance the implementation of ERP, the KSFs are based too much on concept and protocol cannot help an enterprise to achieve this objective. Therefore, this research through qualitative interview method, integrating the KSFs and dynamic capability to set up a model so as to exhibit the ki...

Rogue waves and wave breaking – How are these phenomena related?

According to prevailing ideas, the formation of rogue waves and the onset of wave breaking share a common physical framework: energy focusing within nonlinear wave groups. For 2D (one horizontal spatial direction) wave packet evolution, this correspondence appears to be very close. However, the situation is less clear for 3D propagation, and in the open ocean, observed breaking of dominant wind...

Dynamic ambidexterity: How innovators manage exploration and exploitation

Self-* and Predictability: are these conflicting system capabilities?

In principle, it would have been desirable for any system to have self-* capabilities when faced with changes that might occur either in the system or its environment. However, these capabilities are difficult to incorporate in certain classes of systems, mainly those in which uncertainties in their behaviours are not desirable. In this position paper, we discuss how the expected degree of auto...
