Mid-Range Management Theory
This volume presents an epistemological argument for the essential function of mid-range theory in advancing management concepts that can be usefully applied by managers. Authors analyse two examples - modularity and dynamic capabilities.
Transformational Concepts and Tools for Entrepreneurial Leadership
In modern business, entrepreneurial leadership stands as a linchpin for organizational triumph. Yet, the multifaceted nature of entrepreneurial leadership transcends boundaries, creating a challenge for those operating in culturally diverse contexts. The critical issue at hand revolves around the urgent need for a cross-cultural understanding and framework for entrepreneurial leadership. In a world where different cultures shape and interpret leadership uniquely, grasping the essence of entrepreneurial leadership across borders is pivotal for organizational success. This pervasive challenge has spurred the development of a groundbreaking academic work. Transformational Concepts and Tools for...
Social Robotics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Social Robotics, ICSR 2016, held in Kansas City, MO, USA, in November 2016. The 98 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 107 submissions. The theme of the 2016 conference is Sociorobotics: Design and implementation of social behaviors of robots interacting with each other and humans. In addition to technical sessions, ICSR 2016 included three workshops: The Synthetic Method in Social Robotics (SMSR 2016), Social Robots: A Tool to Advance Interventions for Autism, and Using Social Robots to Improve the Quality of Life in the Elderly.
Managing Open Innovation in SMEs
This book uses in-depth case studies to provide a structured analysis of open innovation practices in small and medium-sized enterprises.
Adaptive Systems in Control and Signal Processing 1992
Adaptive Systems remain a very interesting field of theoretical research, extended by methodological studies and an increasing number of applications. The plenary papers, invited sessions and contributed sessions focused on many aspects of adaptive systems, such as systems identification and modelling, adaptive control of nonlinear systems and theoretical issues in adaptive control. Also covered were methodological aspects and applications of adaptive control, intelligent tuning and adaptive signal processing.

Theatres of Memory: Industrial Heritage of 20th Century Singapore
Most of the old factories are long gone and many workers have retired. Combining history, memory and heritage, Theatres of Memory: Industrial Heritage of 20th Century Singapore takes a stroll through Singapore’s industrial past. From Jurong to Redhill and Kallang, the book uncovers the many hands that enabled the island’s transformation from a colonial entrepôt to an industrial nation. Along the way, we will meet the pioneers of industry—government officials and production workers, men and women, Singaporeans and foreigners. We will hear laughter on the assembly line, descend into the quiet dark of the night shift, and relive the products once made in Singapore, from Rollei cameras and Acma refrigerators to carbonated soft drinks and Bata shoes.
Dynamics and Control of Mechanical Systems in Offshore Engineering
Dynamics and Control of Mechanical Systems in Offshore Engineering is a comprehensive treatment of marine mechanical systems (MMS) involved in processes of great importance such as oil drilling and mineral recovery. Ranging from nonlinear dynamic modeling and stability analysis of flexible riser systems, through advanced control design for an installation system with a single rigid payload attached by thrusters, to robust adaptive control for mooring systems, it is an authoritative reference on the dynamics and control of MMS. Readers will gain not only a complete picture of MMS at the system level, but also a better understanding of the technical considerations involved and solutions to pro...
