Building the effective HPC resilience mechanisms required for viability of next generation supercomputers will require in depth understanding of system and component behaviors. Our goal is to build an integrated framework for high fidelity long term information storage, historic and run-time analysis, algorithmic and visual information exploration to enable system understanding, timely failure ...

Recent studies have highlighted the utility of the resource-based view (RBV) in understanding the development and application of IT capabilities and resources in organisations. Nevertheless, IS research has inadvertently carried over several fundamental problems and weaknesses with the RBV from reference disciplines. This paper proposes an integrative theory, model and research framework that d...

We examine the relationship between the effectiveness of IT steering committee-driven IT governance initiatives and firm’s IT management and IT infrastructure related capabilities. We test these relationships empirically by a field survey of 216 firms. Results of this study suggest that a firms’ effectiveness of IT steering committee-driven IT governance initiatives positively relate to the lev...

From the viewpoint of the whole organisation, the capabilities of a firm can be classified into technological capability and organisational capability. Nowadays, how to accelerate the rate of building up and accumulating technological capabilities is of vital importance to the latecomer companies in order to catch up with technological frontier companies. Technological capability encompasses th...

When building a unified vision system or gradually adding new capabilities to a system, the usual assumption is that training data for all tasks is always available. However, as the number of tasks grows, storing and retraining on such data becomes infeasible. A new problem arises where we add new capabilities to a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), but the training data for its existing capab...

The present research can be viewed as a contribution to the literature on the simulation of first-order models of theory testing and on the simulation of second-order models of theory building. It sets out through computer simulations in system dynamics the positive dynamic interconnections studied by Koiranen and Chirico (2006) between knowledge, capabilities, dynamic capabilities, entrepreneu...

Organizations are striving for sustainable competitive advantage. To achieve this objective they are in search of multiple options and along this a shift in the business is also evident. The organizations are opting various blends of intangibles to deliver superior value to its customer for building longterm relationships. The organizations who have realized the importance of customer relations...
