Rahul Thakurta, Subhajit Dasgupta
2011 arXiv   pre-print
Here we present a case study where-in we investigate the impact of requirement volatility pattern on project performance.  ...  The project setting described in the case is emulated on a validated system dynamics model representing the waterfall model.  ...  To facilitate investigation, we adopt a case-study approach here where-in a validated model of software project dynamics is calibrated to the project environment.  ...

Using System Dynamics Modeling to Investigate the Impact of Resource Management Policies on Project Quality Assurance under Requirement Volatility

Rahul Thakurta, Subhajit Dasgupta
2011 International Journal of Information Processing and Management  
However, there has been no analysis on how different 'patterns' of requirement volatility influence selection of project management approaches and the resultant effect on project performance.  ...  policies impact the project dynamics.  ...  Our study is targeted at both researchers and practitioners. The study differs from several published studies on requirement volatility by taking a pattern oriented viewpoint of the phenomenon.  ...

Information Technology Skill Management: A Systems Dynamics Approach

Jae Choi, Derek L. Nazareth, Hemant K. Jain
2008 Proceedings of the 41st Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS 2008)  
This research attempts to examine the impact of potential staffing strategies under various conditions, and provide guidance for staffing decisions, using a systems dynamics approach.  ...  Economists consider human resources as a collective asset of human capital, the productive capacity embedded in a single individual that results from natural capability, education, Theoretical Background  ...  Given that the staffing decision is a recurring one, a dynamic model that can relate performance from one time period to another is needed.  ...

A Real Explanation for Heterogeneous Investment Dynamics

Jonas D.M. Fisher
2001 Social Science Research Network  
This observation represents a potent challenge to real business cycle (RBC) theory. First of all the theory has been unable to account for it.  ...  This paper shows that RBC theory is consistent with the investment dynamics after all.  ...  Let s jt denote the number of projects j periods from completion at time t and let ω j denote flow of investment in a project j periods from completion.  ...

Unpacking Dynamic Capability: A Design Perspective [chapter]

Deborah E.M. Mulders, A. Georges L. Romme
2009 Information and Organization Design Series  
As such, we integrate the literature on dynamic capability that primarily draws on economics, with a design-oriented approach.  ...  Subsequently, we develop a design-oriented approach toward dynamic capability that distinguishes between design rules, recurrent patterns of behavior, operating routines and processes, market and competitive  ...  By sampling a large number and broad range of papers, rather than focusing on the consensus list of key papers, this study differs from prior reviews of the dynamic capability literature (e.g., Wang and  ...

How dynamic are IP addresses?

Yinglian Xie, Fang Yu, Kannan Achan, Eliot Gillum, Moises Goldszmidt, Ted Wobber
2007 Computer communication review  
This paper introduces a novel algorithm, UDmap, to identify dynamically assigned IP addresses and analyze their dynamics pattern.  ...  Using this information in combination with a three-month Hotmail email server log, we were able to establish that 95.6% of mail servers setup on the dynamic IP addresses in our trace sent out solely spam  ...  Finally, we use a simple, yet illustrative case study to show the impact of network access type on IP volatility.  ...

Curating Complex, Dynamic and Distributed Data: Telehealth as a Laboratory for Strategy

Jenny Ure, Tasneem Irshad, Janet Hanley, Angus Whyte, Claudia Pagliari, Hilary Pinnock, Brian McKinstry
2011 International Journal of Digital Curation  
Here, technical and human agents are distributed, and interaction and state change is a central component of design, rather than an inconvenient challenge to it.  ...  This paper uses qualitative research with stakeholders in two nationally-funded telehealth projects to outline the perceptions, practices and preferences of different stakeholders with regard to data curation  ...  Similarly, technical factors impacting on the data were not evident to receivers of that data.  ...

Supply constraints and housing market dynamics

Andrew Paciorek
2013 Journal of Urban Economics  
In this paper, I contribute both theory and empirical evidence towards the goal of understanding the impact of supply regulation on dynamics via construction lags and increased marginal costs.  ...  Although the volatility of house prices is often ascribed to demandside factors, constraints on housing supply have important and littlestudied implications for housing dynamics.  ...  My paper is also closely related to Saiz's (2010) empirical study of urban growth with topographical constraints on the availability of land, as well as Saks (2008), who examines the impact on local labor  ...

Statistical screening of system dynamics models

Andrew Ford, Hilary Flynn
2005 System Dynamics Review  
This paper describes a pragmatic method of searching for the key inputs to a system dynamics model. This analysis is known as screening.  ...  The method is implemented with readily available software and relies on the simple correlation coefficient to indicate the relative importance of model inputs at different times in the simulation.  ...  To learn if LHS sampling could be useful with a system dynamics model, Ford and McKay (1985) studied the range of projections from a model of an electric utility.  ...
