R&D-Cooperation and the Efficiency of Regional Innovation Activities

This paper investigates the relationship between the cooperative behavior of manufacturing establishments in a region and the efficiency of their R&D activities using data for eleven European regions. Some significant differences in the attitude towards R&D cooperation, as well as with regard to the efficiency of R&D activities between the regions can be found. However, these two issues appear ...

Inward and Outward Integral Equations and the Kkr Method

Our main goals have been to calculate photonic bands on various periodic dielectric lattices, to clarify some controversy regarding existence of a photonic band gap for fcc lattice of dielectric spheres [1], and finally treat impurities in a photonic crystal [2]. Motivated by the search for a photonic band gap [3] we have tried to adapt one of the standard methods of electron band theory namely...

Metamodel for Service Design and Service Innovation: Integrating Service Activities, Service Systems, and Value Constellations

This paper presents a metamodel that addresses service system design and innovation by traversing and integrating three essential layers, service activities, service systems, and value constellations. The metamodel's approach to service systems as service-in-operation is an alternative to another currently used approach that views service systems as systems of economic exchange. The metamodel a...
