Artifact interactions retard technological improvement: An empirical study
Empirical research has shown performance improvement of many different technological domains occurs exponentially but with widely varying improvement rates. What causes some technologies to improve faster than others do? Previous quantitative modeling research has identified artifact interactions, where a design change in one component influences others, as an important determinant of improveme...
متن کاملImplementing software process improvement: an empirical study
In this paper we present survey data characterizing the implementation of SPI in 85 UK companies. We aim to provide SPI managers with more understanding of the critical success factors of implementing SPI. We present an analysis of the critical implementation factors identified in published case studies. We use a questionnaire to measure the use of these factors in ‘typical’ software companies....
متن کاملFirst vs. best improvement: An empirical study
When applying the 2-opt heuristic to the travelling salesman problem, selecting the best improvement at each iteration gives worse results on average than selecting the first improvement, if the initial solution is chosen at random. However, starting with ‘greedy’ or ‘nearest neighbor’ constructive heuristics, the best improvement is better and faster on average. Reasons for this behavior are i...
متن کاملInward Beliefs in High Technological Performance: an Empirical Study
This study samples Taiwan’s electronics, mechanical, computer, and bioengineering industries, using a two-step LISREL (LInear Structure RELation) to establish a theoretical model for technological attributes, inward licensing beliefs, and performance (TBPM). The evidence indicates that technology implicitness has strong and positive influences and, through technology usefulness (U), significant...
متن کاملSoftware Process Improvement in Small Scale Organizations: An Empirical Study
Though, small organizations do not have the same funding opportunities as that of largeorganizations yet they too need of software process improvement programs. It is better toinitiate a software process improvement program as early as possible, irrespective of theorganization size. The small organization grows over the time and become a large organizationand at that time an ide...
