IEEE TEMS Board of Directors-approved body of knowledge dedicated
to technology and engineering management The IEEE Guide to the
Technology and Engineering Management Society Body of Knowledge
(TEMSBOK) establishes a set of common practices for technology and
engineering management, acts as a reference for entrepreneurs,
establishes a basis for future official certifications, and
summarizes the literature on the management field in order to
publish reference documentation for new initiatives. The editors
have used a template approach with authors that instructed them on
how to introduce their manuscript, how to organize the technology
and area fundamentals, the managing approach, techniques and
benefits, realistic examples that show the application of concepts,
recommended best use (focusing on how to identify the most adequate
approach to typical cases), with a summary and conclusion of each
section, plus a list of references for further study. The book is
structured according to the following area knowledge chapters:
business analysis, technology adoption, innovation,
entrepreneurship, project management, digital disruption, digital
transformation of industry, data science and management, and ethics
and legal issues. Specific topics covered include: Market
requirement analysis, business analysis for governance planning,
financial analysis, evaluation and control, and risk analysis of
market opportunities Leading and managing working groups,
optimizing group creation and evolution, enterprise agile
governance, and leading agile organizations and working groups
Marketing plans for new products and services, risk analysis and
challenges for entrepreneurs, and procurement and collaboration
Projects, portfolios and programs, economic constraints and roles,
integration management and control of change, and project plan
structure The IEEE Guide to the Technology and Engineering
Management Society Body of Knowledge (TEMSBOK) will appeal to
engineers, graduates, and professionals who wish to prepare for
challenges in initiatives using new technologies, as well as
managers who are responsible for conducting business involving
technology and engineering.
Although most universities could be considered bureaucrat
organizations, the accumulated knowledge reveals that universities
try to adapt their core activities and technological innovation
processes to face the current socio-economic challenges. This book
explores the ways in which universities have re-built multiple
capabilities to support the development of applied innovation and
manage new technologies. Concretely, this book (1) theoretically
addresses the university managers’ view for re-building
university capabilities due to the public policy agendas demands;
and (2) empirically addresses the documentation of experiences and
strategies adopted by universities in different contexts to achieve
public policy agendas. These universities strategies include
re-build entrepreneurial, innovative, digital, and sustainable
capabilities. This book encourages researchers, scholars,
academics, students and policy makers to re-think how universities
are expanding equal opportunities related to high-quality higher
education, innovative/entrepreneurial graduate options, and
contributing to sustainable societal advance and well-being through
research and community engagement.
Cybersecurity has become a critical area to focus after recent hack
attacks to key infrastructure and personal systems. This book
reviews the building blocks of cybersecurity technologies and
demonstrates the application of various technology intelligence
methods through big data. Each chapter uses a different mining
method to analyze these technologies through different kinds of
data such as patents, tweets, publications, presentations, and
other sources. It also analyzes cybersecurity methods in sectors
such as manufacturing, energy and healthcare.
"A small business is not a little big business." Small- and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are considered the engines of
worldwide economies and the main sources of job creation.
Management in these companies is different from management in
larger/older enterprises with their already established concepts
and instruments. In view of the high importance of SMEs in
emerging, developing and developed economies worldwide, the De
Gruyter Handbook of SME Entrepreneurship investigates the
underlying mechanisms and practices of management within these
companies with a focus on entrepreneurship, growth and innovation.
It argues that it is time for a dedicated theory of "SME
Entrepreneurship" to emerge. Entrepreneurial thinking and behavior
in SMEs must be differentiated from that of start-ups and large
companies. On the other hand, it also explores the different
entrepreneurship manifestations that exist within a widely
heterogeneous group of SMEs. The handbook provides a theoretical
framework in which to understand, compare and contrast the
complexity of SMEs in both domestic and international processes and
addresses the strengths, achievements, and challenges of
entrepreneurship in SMEs.
