4. 3. Gaining influence in standard-setting processes : a discussion of underlying mechanisms in 3G mobile telephony technology development

   Författare :Christina Grundström; Helén Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Dominant designs; standard-setting processes; 3G mobile telephony technology development; technology and standards hierarchy; industry maturity; roles and functions of people; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

   Sammanfattning : The environment in which companies operate is such that standards become increasingly important due to the built-in rigidities resulting from previous technology investments and network externalities. The research question is: How can a market-leading company gain influence on the formation of standards perceived as vital for the company-s continued business? The purpose of the dissertation is to explore, describe, and characterise how such influence may be gained; it thus aims to reveal some of the mechanisms underlying a technology standard-setting process.

7. 5. Change and exchange : electronic document management in building design

   Författare :Kurt Löwnertz; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Producing documents using computer supported methods hasbecome common practice in the construction industry, but themanagement of documents is still to a large degree done withmanual methods. Some pioneering users in design, constructionand facility management respectively have applied electronicdocument management (EDM) within their organisations or forprojects. LÄS MER
