More and more firms shift their focus from offering standalone products or services towards hybrid value creation. While previous research clearly states four value creating attributes, their role and impact in different types of hybrid offerings is so far unclear. To close this gap, this paper investigates 52 successful offerings of hybrid value creation and provides an organizational perspect...

Microprocessors are becoming faster at such a rapid pace that memory systems cannot keep up. As a result, the relative latency of load instructions grows constantly and already impedes processor pe rformance. Load value predictors alleviate this problem by allowing the CPU to speculatively continue processing without having to wait for load instructions to co mplete, which can significantly imp...

PURPOSE Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) share the same role in clinical oncology and it is feasible to obtain the standardized uptake value (SUV) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) simultaneously by emerging the hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MR). This study i...

This paper addresses an autonomous stochastic system with delay and associated fuzzy and hybrid models, which describe a monetary system involving interest rate, investment demand and price index. We analyze the deterministic model and the stochastic model with perturbation. For the stochastic system with delay we identify the differential equations for the mean values as well as for the mean s...

This paper describes the database development of spoken Hindi Hybrid words. The main focus is on the analysis of spoken Hindi Hybrid Words by using endpoint detection algorithm. The development is done in the robust environment. Male and Female speakers are selected from different states to analyze the acoustical variation in their utterances. Various emotions such as normal, happy, anger and s...

the seismic performance of hybrid braces composed of steel and shape memory alloy (sma) was investigated in this paper. six types of hybrid braces were used, constituted by sma content of 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100%. a nonlinear dynamic analysis was performed under el centro earthquake records, with the maximum acceleration of 0.6g and 0.9g. our results showed that the seismic performance, i.e....

STUDY DESIGN A quantitative meta-analysis was conducted on publishing studies reporting results of spinal surgery in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis with instrumentation of pedicle screw or hybrid construct. OBJECTIVE The primary objective is to get overview of the power to restore thoracic kyphosis using 2 different instrumentations. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA During the past years, surger...
