This study extends the literature on fighting software piracy by investigating how Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) regimes interact with technology to mitigate software piracy when existing levels of piracy are considered. Two technology metrics (internet penetration rate and number of PC...

Enterprise Social Software versprechen, Kommunikation im Unternehmen nicht nur effizienter, sondern auch demokratischer zu gestalten. Doch welche Chancen bieten diese Systeme tatsächlich für die Partizipation im Unternehmen? Welche Herausforderungen stellen sich? Welche Handlungsoptionen...

This study examines the persistence of software piracy with internet penetration vis-à-vis of PC users, conditional on Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) institutions. The empirical evidence is based on a panel of 99 countries for the period 1994-2010 and the Generalised Method of Moments. The...

The aim of the paper is threefold. First, we compute differences on the degree of de-routinization of job contents across a harmonized and hence comparable sample of Anglo-Saxon, many European and even Asian advanced countries. We do so by using very precise information on job contents at the...

Platform as a service (PaaS) solutions are changing the way how software is produced, distributed, consumed, and priced. To be competitive on the market, PaaS providers have to be aware of drivers of successful platforms and design or adjust solutions accordingly. Surprisingly, prior research...

Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Einflussfaktoren der Wissensteilung mittels unternehmenseigener sozialer Medien. Im Anschluss an einen umfassenden Literaturueberblick und einen (oekonomischen und sozialpsychologischen) theoretischen Teil, werden die Determinanten der Wissensteilung mittels...

We examine whether ownership of intellectual property rights (IPR) or downstream capabilities is effective in encouraging entry into markets complementary to a proprietary platform by preventing the platform owner from expropriating rents from start-ups. We study this question in the context of...

It has been argued that platform technology owners co-create business value with other firms in their platform ecosystems by encouraging complementary invention and exploiting indirect network effects. In this study we examine whether participation in an ecosystem partnership improves the...

This book offers a practical guide to artificial intelligence (AI) techniques that are used in business. The book does not focus on AI models and algorithms, but instead provides an overview of the most popular and frequently used models in business. This allows the book to easily explain AI...

In this paper, we examine global trajectories, dynamics, and tendencies of software piracy to ease the benchmarking of current efforts towards harmonizing the standards and enforcements of Intellectual Property Rights (henceforth IPRs) protection worldwide. Our empirical exercise is based on 15...

Enterprise application software vendors seek to re-produce the success story of consumer mobile apps in their domain. Like private users, business users ask for flexible, consumer-grade applications for their daily work. However, enterprise software applications do not meet those expectations...
