from mass production to mass customization enabling perspectives from the swedish mobile Telephone Industry
Production Planning & Control, 2004Co-Authors: Kerstin Johansen, Mica Comstock, Mats WinrothAbstract:Much has been written about the conceptual nature of mass customization, and the success of several best business practitioners in the area have been well documented. Most companies, however, are n ...

enabling mass customization in the mobile Telephone Industry agility flexibility and the changing role of assembly at ericsson
CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Systems, 2003Co-Authors: Mica Comstock, Mats WinrothAbstract:This paper reports results of an investigation conducted to explore the status of Mass Customization in the mobile Telephone Industry and its implications for assembly operations. The study focused on the manufacture of two representative mobile Telephone models at Sweden's Ericsson. The findings include the level of variety and customization in each model, where in the value chain this differentiation was implemented, and how it was conceptually, methodologically and technologically enabled. The analysis, aided by several frameworks from the literature, points to a changing role for assembly in this Industry, and suggests research direction to meet future customized manufacturing challenges.

competition in a network Industry the Telephone Industry 1894 1910
The Journal of Economic History, 1994Co-Authors: David GabelAbstract:The re-emergence of AT&T as the dominant firm in the Telephone Industry resulted from its adopting a predatory response to entrants. AT&T's strategy was effective because government regulations and capital market imperfections provided the incumbent with a first-mover advantage that prevented challengers from entering simultaneously in all markets.

AT&T's Strategic Response to Competition: Why Not Preempt Entry?
The Journal of Economic History, 1993Co-Authors: David GabelAbstract:The idea that a monopolist would adopt a pricing strategy to deter entry is found in a wide body of research. We explore why the monopolist in the American Telephone Industry, AT&T, did not pursue such a strategy when its initial patents expired.

Designing mobile transmitters in view of SAR, HAC and OTA constraints
2010 Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility, 2010Co-Authors: Erdem Ofli, Mark Douglas, Fin Bomholt, Niels KusterAbstract:With the continuous trend towards smaller mobile devices with sophisticated functionality and multiple wireless bands, concerns about possible insufficient over-the-air (OTA) performance and increased Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) values are growing within the wireless-Telephone Industry. These new phones must also comply with the hearing aid compatibility (HAC) standards. The aim of this paper is to review current trends of OTA, SAR and HAC requirements and to discuss the tools available for developing and analyzing optimized devices.

competition and allocative efficiency the case of the u s Telephone Industry
The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1995Co-Authors: Yimin ZhangAbstract:This study investigates the effect of competition on the productive efficiency of the U.S. Telephone Industry, taking into account the fact that the Industry was subject to rate-of-return regulation. It is shown that competition induces the incumbents to use capital inputs closer to the unconstrained optima, thereby reducing the allocative inefficiency caused by the Averch-Johnson effect. This effect is in addition to the usual technical efficiency improvement induced by competition. Empirical results, based on annual data for the U.S. Telephone Industry for the 1951-90 period, suggested that competition improved the allocative efficiency of the incumbent firms which had been under a rate-of-return regulation until 1989.
