  1. 6. Change models in need of renewal: Building strategic practice to prevail in industry transitions

    Author : Johanna Pregmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; change formula; strategic practice; contextual ambidexterity; industry transition; change; renewal; action research; innovation; urgency creativity;

    Abstract : Organizations find it hard to survive industry transitions. To succeed, organizations need to rethink the way they do business and the renewal efforts have to overcome the lock-in created by the organizational system, capabilities and organizational culture. Moreover, in an industry transition a clear view of what to change into is often lacking. READ MORE

  3. 8. Asymptotic Expansions for Perturbed Discrete Time Renewal Equations

    Author : Mikael Petersson; Dmitrii Silvestrov; Ola Hössjer; Henrik Hult; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Renewal equation; Perturbation; Asymptotic expansion; Regenerative process; Quasi-stationary distribution; Risk process; Ruin probability;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of a discrete time renewal equation depending on a small perturbation parameter. In particular, we construct asymptotic expansions for the solution of the renewal equation and related quantities. READ MORE

  4. 9. A Class of Renewal Processes in Random Environments

    Author : David Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; point process; renewal process; random environment; coupling; regeneration; failure rate; Poisson embedding; asymptotics; stochastic domination; stochastic monotonicity; renewal process;

    Abstract : This paper deals with a generalization of the class of renewal processes with absolutely continuous life length distribution, obtained by allowing a random environment to modulate the stochastic intensity of the renewal process. The random environment is a birth and death process with a finite state space. READ MORE

  5. 10. Empirical Essays on Railway Infrastructure Costs in Sweden

    Author : Mats Andersson; Lars-Göran Mattsson; John Preston; KTH; []
    Keywords : Railways; Infrastructure; Marginal Costs; Maintenance; Renewal; Econometrics; Panel Data; Survival Analysis; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis concerns pricing the use of transport infrastructure. We are empirically investigating the relationship between railway traffic volumes and infrastructure management costs. More specifically, we are interested in estimating the change in infrastructure management costs from marginal variations in traffic volumes, i.e. READ MORE
