1. Development/Maintenance/Reuse: Software Evolution in Product Lines - Product Lines
The evolution tree model is a two-dimensional model that describes how the versions of the artifacts of a software product evolve. The propagation graph is a data structure that can be used for effective control of the evolution of the artifacts of a software product. In this paper we extend the evolution tree model and propagation graph to handle the evolution of a software product line.

2. Fast-Cycle Product Development - Preston G. Smith,New Product Dynamics
In today's highly competitive industrial environment, those who are slow in bringing new products to market often lose out to those with a more agile development process. Developing products quickly while maintaining cost and quality demands a distinctive management approach that integrates marketing, engineering, manufacturing, and other activities. This article discusses the importance of development speed relative to the product's cost, performance, and development expense, and it suggests ways in which a company can cut development time. Topics covered include top management involvement; product objectives and complexity; team composition and leadership; communication vehicles, including the product specification; prototyping and testing; and control systems, such as design reviews.

3. Relevancia del predesarrollo en el éxito de los nuevos productos - Benito Torres, José Leandro; Varela González, José Antonio
La importancia atribuida a la etapa de predesarrollo de los nuevas productos viene avalada por los resultados de numerosos trabajos donde se constato que el éxito de una innovación se decide, en gran medida, en los momentos iniciales. Fundamentada en estas resultadas, el presente trabajo analiza la relación entre la ejecución de las actividades de predesarrollo y el éxito de los nuevos productas. Sobre una muestra formada por 75 empresas industriales, se pone en evidencia que tanto el número como la efectividad con que se realizan las actividades previas al desarrollo ejercen mayor influencia sobre el éxito que las posteriores.

4. Análisis del efecto de la cultura y el compromiso en el resultado de los nuevos productos internacionales - Munuera Alemán, Jose Luis; Carbonell Foulquié, Pilar; Rodríguez Escudero, Ana Isabel
La importancia que el desarrollo de nuevos productos (DNP) internacionales tiene para la competitividad empresarial apenas se ha visto reflejada en la literatura sobre nuevos productos. De acuerdo con la revisión de la literatura, los únicos trabajos que se centran directamente en este tema son los realizados por los profesores canadienses De Brentani y Kleinschmidt. Este trabajo propone el estudio de la relación de la cultura y el compromiso de la alta dirección con el resultado de los nuevos productos internacionales. Para tal fin contamos con una muestra plurisectorial de empresas que realizan actividades de I+D a nivel global en...

5. Factores de éxito en el desarrollo de nuevos productos en las empresas industriales españolas - Valle Alvarez, Sandra
Este estudio pretende identifican cuáles de los factores de éxito del desarrollo de Nuevos productas (DNP) más comúnmente citados en la literatura internacional son también críticos para las empresas españolas. El análisis se basa en una muestra de 125 empresas representativas de los sectores manufactureros más innovadores de la industria española. Los resultados muestran tanto similitudes como diferencias con los estudios internacionales previas. Las similitudes podrían indicar que, en cierta medida, existe una fórmula mundial para un DNP de éxito. Las diferencias, sin embargo, implicarán que los resultados de la investigación de un país deben ser aplicadas con prudencia a...

6. Análisis de las preferencias para un nuevo producto de pescado de conveniencia: una aplicación empírica para España y Noruega - Calvo Dopico, Domingo; Tudorán, Alina; Ottar Olsen, Svein
El pescado se presenta como un producto agroalimentario muy saludable, bajo en grasas saturadas y con una excelente fuente de proteínas esenciales para nuestra salud. Sin embargo, el pescado no suele ajustarse siempre a las preferencias del consumidor actual, dada su naturaleza muy perecedera, sus altos costes de preparación, o por sus características físicas y organolépticas (espinas, sabor, olor). En este contexto, se busca desarrollar nuevos productos de pesca que intentan superar algunas de esas barreras al consumo. Se trata de los productos de pescado de conveniencia, dirigidos principalmente al público joven. Este estudio tiene por finalidad evaluar el grado...

7. Estrategias comerciales asociadas a determinados factores psicológicos del consumidor que afectan a la elección de un producto exclusivo - Quesada González, José Luis; Suárez Moreno, Carmen Rosa
Muchos empresarios no tienen en cuenta las percepciones de compra del consumidor cuando intentan fijar precios de marca para sus productos exclusivos. En este artículo ponemos de manifiesto distintas estrategias de marketing que pueden servir de base para la determinación de un "precio de marca", poniendo de relieve que el precio de mercado para un producto exclusivo depende de dos factores: el Valor de Utilidad del Producto (VUP) y el Valor del Premio Exclusivo (VPE) relacionado con factores psicológicos que afectan a los consumidores. Consideramos que la empresa puede influir en las percepciones del consumidor y fijar un precio de...

8. The role of the demand chain in developing product life cycle strategy - Walters, David, 1936-; Division of Development and International; Sydney Graduate School of Management; International Conference on Product Lifecycle Management 11-13 Jul. 2005 France
For some time a debate as been conducted concerning the efficacy of the product life cycle. Marketing academics have been polarised between views that accept and/or reject the PLC as a useful marketing concept. More recently the topic has been resurrected by the operations management discipline that have positioned the PLC as a means for life cycle planning of facilities and, for some, of inventories. While this may serve a useful function, particularly in a cost conscious management climate it is suggested that the demand chain may help focus and fine-tune the PLC. Product life cycle management should, and can,...

12. E-Product Catalogues - Robert Amor; Wolfgang Kloep
Abstract: Online product catalogues for construction have tended to mimic traditional paper-based catalogues. This approach adds very little value to the electronic format and does not integrate well with the object-based design world which is starting to become accepted within CAD systems. The development and mass deployment of new Internet-based technologies such as XML, SOAP, UDDI, WSDL, etc appear to offer a route to new approaches to online product catalogues. The potential benefits provided by these technologies include: identification of products via actual parameters; a single data transport mechanism; dynamic identification of available products as required; the ability to handle...

13. A Product Decomposition
. We give a specific product decomposition of the base-point path connected component of the triple loop space of the suspension of the projective plane. 1. Introduction In this paper, we give a specific product decompositions of the base-point path connected component of the triple loop space of the suspension of the projective plane, which is denoted byOmega 3 0 SigmaRP 2 . Let RP b a = RP b =RP aGamma1 , let X ! n ? be the n-connected covering of the space X and let P n (2) = Sigma nGamma2 RP 2 , the n-dimensional mod 2 Moore space. In particular, P 3 (2) = SigmaRP 2 . Our theorem is as follows. Theorem 1.1. There is a homotopy equivalence Omega 3 0 P 3 (2) 'Omega 2 (S 3 h3i) ThetaOmega 3 0 (P 6 (2) SigmaRP 4 2 ) localized at...

14. Reviewers - Männistö T; A Conceptual; Product Families; Professor Reijo Sulonen
Many industries exhibit a growing trend towards better customisation. This means a larger product variety, which can be implemented in the form of product families. The main idea of product families is to combine the economy of scale offered by mass-products with the high degree of adaptation to customer needs provided by project products, which necessitates a mechanism for capturing the variation in an effective manner. In this thesis, the focus is on the conceptual modelling of product families, particularly on the problems related to the evolution of product family descriptions and the product individuals created according to them. The...

16. Architect and Human Measure; the integration role - Design Product
The architect plays an essential role in making solutions, which fit with the human measure. During the long product creation chain the human measure is easily lost. The role of the architect is to integrate understanding of the customer world with know-how of the solution (technology) world. The architect quickly iterates many stakeholder viewpoints to achieve a satisfying solutions from many, seemingly conflicting, viewpoints. Distribution This article or presentation is written as part of the Gaud project. The Gaud project philosophy is to improve by obtaining frequent feedback. Frequent feedback is pursued by an open creation process. This document is published as intermediate or nearly mature version to get...

17. Exchange Rate Dynamics and the Welfare Effects of Monetary Policy in a Two-Country Model with Home-Product Bias - In A Two-country,Home-product Bias,Francis E. Warnock
: International spillovers and exchange rate dynamics are examined in a two-country dynamic optimizing model that allows for home-product bias in consumption patterns: at given relative prices the ratio of home goods consumed to foreign goods consumed is higher in the home country. The setup nests Obstfeld and Rogoff (1995), who assume identical tastes. With home bias, results are different in three ways. When preferences are biased, the wealth transfers associated with current account imbalances induce movements in the real exchange rate and produce large short-run and small long-run deviations from consumption-based purchasing power parity. With home bias, interest rates, both real and nominal, can differ across...

18. The Implementation Of A Reliable Dot Product - Dr. David,W. Matula,Mr. Willard,S. Briggs,Dr. Weidong Chen,Of A Reliable,Dot Product,Marc P. Daumas
this document, we present a new rounding standard for transcendental functions and vector arithmetic. Some suggestions are also introduced for analysis of the cancellation phenomenon. This includes a standard measure for signaling catastrophic cancellation of a single operation or a compound accumulation. Finally, the new functionalities leading to a hardware cost-efficient dot product are defined. With low extra-cost, the accuracy monitoring does not slow pipelined computation of accurate results, and it is able to signal erroneous results. This allows the user to surely rely on guaranteed results. We specifically describe the mechanism to detect catastrophic cancellation. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES. : : : : : : : :...

20. El mercado de productos biológicos en Alemania - Buisán García, Mario
El presente artículo analiza la situación general de uno de los mercados que más atención ha despertado en los últimos tiempos, como es el mercado de productos biológicos, centrándose geográficamente en un país que posiblemente es el pionero en el desarrollo de estos productos. Este mercado se constituye como el más atractivo desde variados puntos de vista, y está en parte sustentado, por un lado, en la importancia cuantitativa de Alemania, y por otro lado, en la relevancia que desde una perspectiva ferial ha presentado tradicionalmente dicho país y que se manifiesta una vez más en este caso. En las...
