A penalty-regularization-operator splitting method for the numerical solution of a scalar Eikonal equation
In this article, we discuss a numerical method for the computation of the minimal and maximal solutions of a steady scalar Eikonal equation. This method relies on a penalty treatment of the nonlinearity, a biharmonic regularization of the resulting variational problem, and the time discretization by operator-splitting of an initial value problem associated with the Euler-Lagrange...

Gewinnmaximierung - der blinde Fleck strategischen Denkens
Im Fokus strategischen Denkens steht die Frage, WIE ein Unternehmen sich im Markt und in der Gesellschaft positionieren will, um seine Stärken auch unter sich verändernden Konkurrenzbedingungen erfolgreich - und das heisst vielleicht nicht nur, aber doch immer auch: gewinnbringend - zu vermarkten. Ebenso wichtig ist jedoch die Frage, WIE VIEL Gewinn erzielt werden soll. Der Beitrag...

Luxe: : la lente émergence des marques horlogères chinoises
Des sociétés comme Fiyta sortent des complications de plus en plus prestigieuses et visent à termes à bousculer les marques suisses de luxe. Leur offensive reste cependant très graduelle. En attendant, elles rachètent patiemment savoir-faire et marques suisses… Analyse.

Modeling a waste disposal process via a discrete mixture of count data models:
We propose a modeling framework for the data generating process of waste disposal in recyclable waste containers. It is based on a discrete mixture of count data models representing populations depositing dierent quantities in the containers, thus reflecting a realistic underlying behavior. It is tested on real data coming from ultrasound sensors mounted inside the containers and...

Real-time ride-sharing substitution service in multi-modal public transport using buckets:
We consider a mix transportation problem, which allows to combine a multi-modal public and a ride-sharing transports, in a dynamic environment. The main idea of our approach consists in labelling interesting nodes of a geographical map with information about either riders or drivers, in so-called buckets. Based on the information contained in these buckets, we compute admissible ride...

Multi-modal transportation with public transport and ride-sharing: : multi-modal transportation using a path-based method
This article describes a multi-modal routing problem, which occurs each time a user wants to travel from a point A to a point B, using either ride-sharing or public transportation. The main idea is to start from an itinerary using public transportation, and then substitute part of this itinerary by ride-sharing. We first define a closeness estimation between the user’s itinerary and...

Reverse engineering an iPhone applications using dynamic analysis
Mobile applications are becoming very complex since business applications increasingly move to the mobile. Hence the same problem of code maintenance and comprehension of poorly documented apps, as in the desktop world, happen to the mobile today. One technique to help with code comprehension is to reverse engineer the application. Specifically, we are interested in the functional...

On scope effects in contingent valuation: : does the statistical distributional assumption matter ?
In this paper, we test for scope effects in Contingent Valuation applying different distributional assumptions for WTP, a non-parametric estimation and an estimation based on an open-ended format. Mean WTP is sensitive to the distributional assumption, but so is the scope effect. The nonparametric model, without conditions on the distribution, is the best able to identify scope...

Unternehmensbewertung im Nachfolgefall - der emotionale Wert
W ährend der Unternehmenswert bei privaten Firmen im weitaus grössten Teil des Lebenszyklus eine untergeordnete Rolle spielt, so gelangt er im Nachfolgefall zu hoher Bedeutung: Er legt fest, was ein fairer Kaufpreis ist. Auch bei einer familieninternen Nachfolge kann der Unternehmenswert eine wichtige Rolle spielen, nämlich dann wenn es um die gerechte Behandlung mehrerer Kinder geht...

Creating Shared Value: Eine Grundsatzkritik/Creating Shared Value: A Fundamental Critique
Der Beitrag formuliert eine Grundsatzkritik an Michael Porters und Marc Kramers Konzept des "Creating Shared Value" (CSV). Für diesen Zweck wird in einem ersten Schritt die positive und negative Kritik, die seit 2011 am CSV geäussert worden ist, zusammengefasst. Im Weiteren zeigen die Autoren, dass CSV hinter das Verständnis einer modernen Unternehmensverantwortung...

Attentional agency and the implementation of a strategic initiative
We report findings from an in-depth single case study about a failed new venture initiative in a large firm that suggest that attentional agency (i.e. the exercise of discretion by managers over the distribution and allocation of attention of other organizational members) and the incompleteness of governance channels (i.e. the formal and informal mechanisms set up by managers to...
