Das Buch beschreibt Methoden und Konzepte, die in verschiedenen Forschungs- und Praxisprojekten eingesetzt wurden. Diese Forschung basiert auf dem Lean Management und der Wertschöpfungsorientierung in Projekten und Produktionsprozessen. Die Methoden ermöglichen eine zielgerichtete Optimierung von Prozessen hinsichtlich deren Wertschöpfung. Darunter fallen die Value Added Heat Map sowie die Value Stream Model and Notation als Visualisierungsmethoden. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist der Zusammenhang von Maßnahmen zur Digitalisierung bzw. der digitalen Transformation und deren Auswirkung auf die Wertschöpfungskonzentration in Unternehmen und Dienstleistungsbetrieben. Außerdem wird dargestellt, inwiefern die Zusammenarbeit von Hochschulen und Unternehmen einen Beitrag zur Wertschöpfungssteigerung leisten kann.

Organizations are increasingly recognizing the importance of sustainability and responsibility. They are challenged to develop a holistic approach to value creation that reconciles economic, social, and environmental goals. This book describes how knowledge can facilitate this process and amplifies the idea of knowledge management to strategically serve multiple stakeholders in a sustainable and responsible way. In particular, the book introduces the concept of the "e;Need Knowledge-Driven Organization."e; It builds on mature research on organizational purpose, stakeholder theory, and phronesis, and advances the concept of "e;needs."e; This provides a new lens for understanding the sustainable and responsible business case: First, people are motivated by their needs, and organizations represent social structures that facilitate the satisfaction of shared needs. Second, needs reflect and combine social, environmental, and economic concerns, making sustainability and responsibility more realizable for practitioners. And third, needs provide a reference point for holistic value creation and can thus align knowledge processes and structures in organizations.
Knowledge translation is a topic that originated in the field of health sciences where the need to move research to practice is of critical importance. In parallel, the field of knowledge sciences has developed a research base around knowledge transfer, knowledge sharing, knowledge exchange, knowledge articulation and knowledge absorption. This book brings these two important tracks together and synthesizes the fragmented literatures. It also draws from essential work on human communication and considers how these concepts are affected by the knowledge economy.The book raises awareness of the critical role that knowledge translation plays in every academic field of study, and in everyday life. To demonstrate this role, the book presents a grounding model that readers can use to better 'see' their knowledge translation challenges and opportunities. Drawing on the author team's experience in a range of domains and sectors, the book explores knowledge translation in the fields of manufacturing, infectious diseases, automated call centers, regulatory development and compliance, financial lending, transportation safety, and doctor-patient discourse.
This book tackles the recent research trends on the role of AI in advancing automotive manufacturing, augmented reality, sustainable development in smart cities, telemedicine, and robotics. It sheds light on the recent AI innovations in classical machine learning, deep learning, Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, knowledge representation, knowledge management, big data, and natural language processing (NLP). The edited book covers empirical and reviews studies that primarily concentrate on the aforementioned issues, which would assist scholars in pursuing future research in the domain and identifying the possible future developments of AI applications.
Sustainable development is based on the idea that societies should advance without compromising their future development requirements. This book explores how the application of data analytics and digital technologies can ensure that development changes are executed on the basis of factual data and information.

It provides a step-by-step guide to help managers make better business decisions by understanding their organizational risk. The field has advanced significantly in the past 10 years and this all-new edition reiterates the importance of the foundations of risk measurement but adds information about modern methods to integrate quantitative risk assessment methods into your security programs. This includes the integration of security telemetry data, outside data sources, approaches to automating FAIR assessments, and how to align methods and programs to security standards and regulations. Further discussed is how such approaches are being used by third-party agencies to provide CRQ data to the investors, underwriters, and regulators. This book is a valuable resource for all those who need the foundations, methods, and techniques for measuring, assessing, and communicating cyber risk to enable an organization to build an organizational IT risk management program. It serves as both a practical how-to guide for those new to the industry as well as tenured professionals that need a formalized guide for implementation.
This book is a unique compilation of comprehensive works covering the potentials, challenges, and realities of geographical indications from an Indian perspective. The book encompasses critical studies on legal, regulatory, and institutional frameworks and debates surrounding geographical indications. The concept of geographical indication has not received paramount importance in India compared to the other forms of intellectual property rights like patents and trademarks, while GI is becoming critical in national and international discourses. It aims at presenting both national and international situations and discussions, which will appeal to readers worldwide. This book in its first part elaborately deals with the genesis of the GI Act, and then it goes on to analyze both substantive as well as procedural aspects of the registration under the Indian GI Act and tries to identify the discrepancy and gaps in the laws. Also, a comparative perspective has been built by analyzing the GI laws and regulations of some developed countries with that of India. The challenges in existing regulation for quality control and enforcement of GI products in the Indian GI Act have been dealt comprehensively by the authors which are critical in achieving the stated objectives of the Act.The book also focuses on the role of geographical indication in the socio-economic development of rural India. The authors have illustrated how the GI can act as an effective mechanism for employment generation and sustainable growth opportunities in different sectors like agriculture, food, and handicraft. The interaction of GI with traditional knowledge and biodiversity and their impact on society is also extensively covered. The book contains real-life case studies by the authors from different states of India highlighting the success stories and missed opportunities of different GIs and the way forward where the GI can function as an effective tool for the overall development of a country and promote international trade. The book will provide law students, scholars from legal and IP disciplines, legal practitioners, producers, and policymakers a factual and multidimensional insight into the GI system in India. This will further promote research in this area, particularly from an Asian perspective and enhance the real-life application of GI to varied products.
