  • A compositional framework for Service interaction patterns and interaction flows
    Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2005
    Co-Authors: Alistair Barros, Egon Börger
    Abstract:

    We provide precise high-level models for eight Fundamental Service interaction patterns, together with schemes for their composition into complex Service-based business process interconnections and interaction flows, supporting software-engineered business process management in multi-party collaborative environments. The mathematical nature of our models provides a basis for a rigorous execution-platform-independent analysis, in particular for benchmarking web Services functionality. The models can also serve as accurate standard specifications, subject to further design leading by stepwise refinement to implementations.

  • the dilemma of Service productivity and Service innovation an empirical exploration in financial Services
    Journal of Service Research, 2018
    Co-Authors: Jaakko Aspara, Jan F Klein, Henrikki Tikkanen
    Abstract:

    We conduct a systematic exploratory investigation of the effects of firms’ existing Service productivity on the success of their new Service innovations. Although previous research extensively addresses Service productivity and Service innovation, this is the first empirical study that bridges the gap between these two research streams and examines the links between the two concepts. Based on a comprehensive data set of new Service introductions in a financial Services market over a 14-year period, we empirically explore the relationship between a firm’s existing Service productivity and the firm’s success in introducing new Services to the market. The results unveil a Fundamental Service productivity-Service innovation dilemma: Being productive in existing Services increases a firm’s willingness to innovate new Services proactively but decreases the firm’s capabilities of bringing these Services to the market successfully. We provide specific insights into the mechanism underlying the complex relationshi...

  • The Dilemma of Service Productivity and Service Innovation: An Empirical Exploration in Financial Services
    Journal of service research, 2017
    Co-Authors: Jaakko Aspara, Jan F Klein, Xueming Luo, Henrikki Tikkanen
    Abstract:

    We conduct a systematic exploratory investigation of the effects of firms' existing Service productivity on the success of their new Service innovations. Although previous research extensively addresses Service productivity and Service innovation, this is the first empirical study that bridges the gap between these two research streams and examines the links between the two concepts. Based on a comprehensive data set of new Service introductions in a financial Services market over a 14-year period, we empirically explore the relationship between a firm's existing Service productivity and the firm's success in introducing new Services to the market. The results unveil a Fundamental Service productivity-Service innovation dilemma: Being productive in existing Services increases a firm's willingness to innovate new Services proactively but decreases the firm's capabilities of bringing these Services to the market successfully. We provide specific insights into the mechanism underlying the complex relationship between a firm's productivity in existing Services, its innovation proactivity, and its Service innovation success. For managers, we not only unpack and elucidate this dilemma but also demonstrate that a focused customer scope and growth market conditions may enable firms to mitigate the dilemma and successfully pursue Service productivity and Service innovation simultaneously.

  • OPODIS - Clock synchronization for wireless networks
    Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2005
    Co-Authors: Rui Fan, Indraneel Chakraborty, Nancy Lynch
    Abstract:

    Time synchronization is a Fundamental Service in many wireless applications. While the synchronization problem is well-studied in traditional wired networks, physical constraints of the wireless medium impose a unique set of challenges. We present a novel time synchronization algorithm which is highly energy efficient and failure/recovery-tolerant. Our algorithm allows nodes to synchronize to sources of real time such as GPS when such signals are available, but continues to synchronize nodes to each other, even in the absence of GPS. In addition, the algorithm satisfies a relaxed gradient property, in which the degree of synchronization between nodes varies as a linear function of their distance. Thus, nearby nodes are highly synchronized, which is desirable in many wireless applications.
