Quantitative electroencephalogram (EEG) is one neuroimaging technique that has been shown to differentiate patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and non-depressed healthy volunteers (HV) at the group-level, but its diagnostic potential for detecting differences individual level yet be realized. EEGs produce complex data sets derived from digitally analyzed electrical activity different frequency bands, multiple electrode locations, under vigilance (eyes open vs. closed) states,...

Given that the performance of public-sector organizations is tied to efficient use knowledge, this exploratory study examined factors influence knowledge acquisition by work groups in knowledge-intensive organizations. Based upon a review absorptive capacity and management literature, we defined as change collective over time. The amount individual prior common among group members, managerial practices, perceptions applicability were identified independent variables. Data collected from 179...

Creating industrial programmes, especially in technology, is fraught with high levels of uncertainty. These programmes target the development products that will not be sold for several years; therefore, one risks no longer demand due to emergence more advanced technologies. The paper proposes an integrated approach involving complementary functions foresight, intelligence and business analytics. tools foresight are focused on external environment enable industry researchers to, among other...

In many enterprises and other types of organizations, decision making is both a crucial challenging task. Despite their importance, decisions are still made based on experience intuition rather than evidence supported by rigorous approaches. Decisions often this way because lack data, unknown relationships between data goals, conflicting poorly understood risks. This research presents goal-oriented, business intelligence-supported methodology for making. The methodology, which iterative,...

Purpose – Performance management (PM) is now clearly a well-established practice in public sector organizations. However, increasingly scholars have been questioning its efficacy improving organizational performance. Research has shown that the presumed benefits remain questionable and there are many barriers, challenges problems implementing PM. The purpose of this paper to report discuss findings multi-case study examines more depth how five Canadian organizations...

Transport Canada is reviewing its Aviation Security regulations in a multi-year modernization process. As part of this review, consideration given to transitioning where appropriate from prescriptive style an outcome-based style. This raises new technical and cultural challenges related how measure compliance. paper reports on novel approach used model with the Goal-oriented Requirement Language, augmented qualitative indicators. These models are guide generation questions for inspection...

This qualitative case study examines how the tension between control and collaboration is managed in relationship a Network Administrative Organization (NAO) 40 inter-organizational service delivery networks it governs using performance management system. We found that NAO operated as 'dance', with taking steps to collaborate networks. identified three forms of network governance ambidexterity characterize this dance – structural, goal, behavioural propose framework their antecedents,...

The purpose of this study is to explore the latest approaches in integrating artificial intelligence and analytics (AIA) energy smart grid projects. Empirical results are synthesized highlight their relevance from a technology project management standpoint, identifying several lessons learned that can be used for planning highly integrated automated projects.,A systematic literature review leads selecting 108 research articles dealing with grids AIA applications. Keywords based on following...

The traditional model of competitive intelligence and its operationalization in most organizations appears to be inadequate address the challenges arising from speed change environment, increasing data complexity, growth international activities. To this challenge, article borrows concepts open innovation, applying them all CI We are suggesting going beyond an in-house unit with activities largely conducted by units personnel moving towards a cross pollination approach whereby others firm...

Corporate performance management (CPM) systems using business intelligence technologies can help enterprises monitor and manage performance. In this research, we explored presented empirical evidence on the key benefits of, barriers to, use of CPM through a survey 283 organisations across North America China. We identified three (strategy execution, process efficiency, fact-based decision-making) ten inhibiting under respective project organisational dimensions. Moreover, found that in...

Regulations are a source of evolving requirements for products and organizations. As regulatory institutions shift towards outcome-based regulations, they increasingly adopt legislation performance modeling, at the basis intelligence. In this context, modeling refers to measuring important business aspects in coordinated manner use these measurements improved decision making. Considering that many cases texts already exist, it is necessary build model based on existing regulations may be...

A Business Intelligence (BI) system provides users with multi-dimensional information (a so-called ‘BI product') to support decision-making. However, existing BI systems overlook the lineage metadata which supports individual data quality dimensions such as believability and ease of understanding. Using a design science research paradigm, this paper proposes develops an integrated framework (known Product Metacontent Map - ‘BIP-Map') facilitate traceability accountability products....

Inter-organizational collaboration based on the use of IT systems is now essential for organizations working as Collaborative Networked Organizations (CNOs). However, little research has been done to examine critical success factors involved in shared governance among members a CNO. Accordingly, this develops model inter-organizational composed (CSFs) and key performance indicators (KPIs). The study defines fourteen CSFs that are classified under main four categories governance, which...

The performance modeling of regulations is a relatively recent innovation. However, as regulators in many domains increasingly look to move from prescriptive towards more outcome-based regulations, the use will become common place. major difference over that main interest lies specifying clear objectives and measuring whether regulated parties achieve these objectives, while leaving much freedom party on how meet objectives. Recently, we have found provides benefits such revealing...

This case study uses multiple lines of enquiry to better understand how Nortel went from being a ‘global powerhouse’ at the turn century filing for bankruptcy just nine years later. It tracks competitive intelligence as well other environmental awareness capabilities company and theorizes on they have contributed its rise fall. The findings suggest that was with significant capability in early 90’s had all but lost this competency by year 2000, which impacted their ability make decisions...
