Produkt am Markt erfolgreich zu sein. Gleichzeitig werden Anforderungen, die an ein Produkt gestellt werden, vielfältiger. Ein verbreitetes Vorgehen zum Umgang mit der großen Anforderungsmenge ist die unstrukturierte Wiederverwendung durch das Kopieren einzelner Anforderungen bis hin ganzer...

The last decades have seen a considerable move forward regarding integrated vehicle and crew scheduling in various realms (airline industry, public transport). With the continuous improvement of information and communication technology as well as general solvers it has become possible to...

We quantify the effects of the Swedish GCR, a program to reduce oil dependence and greenhouse gas emissions in the automobile industry. We ?nd the GCR to increase the market shares of `green cars' and its cost to be $109/tonCO2 saved, thus 5 times the price of an emission permit. Since the main...

Personal automobile emissions are a major source of urban air pollution. Many U.S. states control emissions through mandated vehicle inspections and repairs. But there is little empirical evidence directly linking mandated inspections, maintenance, and local air pollution levels. To test for a...

Die deutsche Bundesregierung hat das Ziel ausgegeben, bis zum Jahr 2020 einen Bestand von einer Million Elektrofahrzeugen in der deutschen Fahrzeugflotte zu erreichen. Bis zum Jahr 2030 soll der Bestand bis auf sechs Millionen Elektrofahrzeuge ansteigen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird im Rahmen...

This paper empirically examines the determinants of the demand for alternative energy sources and propulsion technologies in vehicles. The data stem from a stated preference discrete choice experiment with 598 potential car buyers. In order to simulate a realistic automobile purchase situation,...

Inspiriert vor allem von diskurstheoretischen Überlegungen und den Ergebnissen einer explorativen in-depth Fallstudie, welche neben einer grundlegenden Darstellung der fast gänzlich vom Verbrennungsmotor bestimmten Geschichte des US-Automobilfeldes insbesondere dessen völlig unerwartete...

How should we evaluate the welfare implications of improvements to safety technologies in the presence of offsetting behavior? We model this problem as a symmetric game in which each player's payoff depends on his own action and the average action of the other players, and analyze under which...

We study the impact of fuel taxes and kilometer taxes on households' choices of vehicle quality, on their demand for kilometers driven, and on fuel consumption. Moreover, embedding this information in a model of the car market, we analyze the implications of these taxes for the opportunity costs...

The book examines innovation in environment-friendly technologies in the automobile industry. The focus of the book are Germany (a technology leader in the global automobile industry), on the one hand, and India, China and Brazil (technologically proficient emerging technology leaders) on the...

A brief review of long run projections of demand for road transport suggests that problems related to road network congestion and greenhouse gas emissions are likely to become more pressing than they are now. Hence we review, from a macroscopic perspective, popular policy measures to address...

The paper reports the research done in the Stanford University Graduate School of Business 2008 Bass Seminar "Strategic Thinking in Action - In Business and Beyond: The United States' Quest for Energy Resilience," taught by Professors Robert A. Burgelman and Andrew S. Grove. The goal of the...
