A large literature in economic history uses digitized census data to study individual-level outcomes in history. Although many census records have been digitized manually, the process is extremely labor-intensive, and substantial material remains unprocessed in archives. Recent advances in...

Background: Integrating Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology into storage areas within the wiring harness manufacturing industry enables real-time component traceability and supports the implementation of fully automated inventory processes. While RFID systems provide continuous data...

The increasing importance of process models highlights the demand for tools that enable an efficient and accurate transformation of natural language process descriptions into BPMN 2.0 process models. Despite significant advancements in natural language processing and large language models,...

This study examines how automation, measured by industrial robot adoption and artificial intelligence (AI) exposure, is associated with labor market and production outcomes across Europe. Using a panel dataset covering 32 European countries and 18 industries from 1994 to 2019, we analyze the...

The yen depreciation from 2012-2015 reduced robot prices for U.S. firms. Paradoxically, financially constrained firms dramatically increased adoption relative to their unconstrained peers. We rationalize this with a collateral model: robots are pledgeable assets requiring non-pledgeable...

Technologischer Wandel erhöht den Bedarf an Weiterbildung und lebenslangem Lernen. Neue empirische Evidenz für Deutschland zeigt jedoch, dass Beschäftigte in Berufen mit hoher Automatisierungsgefährdung seltener an Weiterbildung teilnehmen als Beschäftigte in weniger gefährdeten...

The increasing deployment of agentic artificial intelligence (AI) systems and decentralized digital infrastructures has challenged traditional assumptions about organizational administration, control, and governance. While AI has advanced task-level optimization and decision support,...

Purpose: This study examines the role of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in warehouse inventory management, with a specific focus on Malaysia's national telecommunication and digital infrastructure provider. It identifies key challenges, operational efficiencies, and strategic implementation...
