Dynamic Capabilities are often considered as the factor justifying the different degrees of success of organizations in turbulent environment. In this paper we investigate whether companies that have achieved a Digital Data Genesis dynamic capability hold an IT-based competitive advantage. Further, we evaluate whether environmental turbulence has a moderating effect on this relationship. We bas...

This paper presents the determination of power transfer between two buses that takes into account the dynamic security constraint. The dynamic security constraint based transient stability has been found to be one of the limiting factors in determining the power transfer so-called as the available transfer capability (ATC). The multimachine integral square generator angle (ISGA) index is used t...

This article suggests that dynamic capabilities can give the firm competitive advantage, but this effect is contingent on the level of dynamism of the firm’s external environment. A nonlinear, inverse U-shaped moderation is proposed, implying that the relationship between dynamic capabilities and competitive advantage is strongest under intermediate levels of dynamism but comparatively weaker w...

The dynamic capabilities literature suggests that firms need to use both internal development and external sourcing to thrive over time, but we have a limited understanding of the conditions that best suit different sourcing choices. This study examines how constraints that arise from firms’ existing stocks of capabilities and from their internal social contexts shape their choices of capabilit...

A central problem in strategic management is how the inference ‘sustainable competitive advantage generates sustainable superior performance’ can be put into practice. In this article we develop a theoretical framework to understand the causal relationships among (1) sustainable competitive advantage, (2) configuration, (3) dynamic capability, and (4) sustainable superior performance. We propos...

In this study, we examine the role of information technology (IT) in improving organizational agility and firm performance from the perspectives of the resource-picking and capability-building mechanisms of rent creation, and the hierarchy of dynamic capabilities. We divide IT capabilities into IT exploration capability, which corresponds to the resource-picking phase, and IT exploitation capab...

The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in the distribution network has plenty of advantages if their allocation and Penetration Level (PL) are done appropriately. Hence, the challenge of finding the best allocation and PL of DERs in large distribution networks is an important but intricate problem. This paper proposes a novel methodology to simultaneously determine the optimal lo...

In this paper we present an integrated framework for software process improvement according to CMM. The framework is double-integrated. First, it is based on the systematic integration of dynamic modules to build a dynamic model to model each maturity level proposed in the reference model. As a consequence, a hierarchical set of dynamic models is developed following the same hierarchy of levels...

Recent arguments in the dynamic capabilities literature suggest that firms need to develop skills with both internal development and external sourcing to be able to thrive over time. We have a limited understanding of the conditions that best suit internal and external sourcing, however, while no largescale study has examined the extent to which firms’ ability to form coherent portfolios of int...
