What was it Wayne Gretzky said about why he was so good at hockey? He just skated to where the puck was going next. Executives and investors wish they could do so too, to sense where profits are going next. Following a six- year study of profitability patterns, the authors have developed a model for doing just that. In the early stages of a product’s evolution, companies compete on the basis of performance. And since they can’t make substantial improvements in product performance unless the entire value chain is housed under one organizational roof, it works best if companies are vertically integrated. But as the underlying technology improves to meet the needs of most customers, companies begin to compete on the basis of convenience, customization, price, and flexibility. At that point, vertical integration is no longer an advantage—in fact, it quickly becomes a disadvantage. Different links in the industry value chain become modular, and the chain subsequently fragments. In either stage, most profitability goes to the companies that own the interdependent links in the value chain—the places where everyone’s still vying to satisfy their customers with ever-better product functionality. Initially, that’s the makers of the proprietary products aimed at the end-use consumers. But as those products become standardized, profitability shifts to the makers of components, and as components themselves become standardized, it can shift further back in the value chain. That’s predictable, but it causes a problem for incumbents. As their products become commodities and profits decline, pressure from investors to maintain ROA causes them to spin off asset-intensive units that design and manufacture components—the very places where profits are heading.

Purpose: This study aims to propose a refined dynamic network slacks-based measure (DNSBM) to evaluate the efficiency of China's regional green innovation system which consists of basic research, applied research and commercialization stages and explore the influencing factors of the stage efficiency. Design/methodology/approach: A two-step procedure is employed. The first step proposes an improved DNSBM model with flexible settings of stages' input or output efficiency and uses second order cone programming (SOCP) to solve the non-linear problem. In the second step, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and Tobit models are used to explore the influencing factors of the stage efficiency. Global Dynamic Malmquist Productivity Index (GDMPI) and Dagum Gini coefficient decomposition method are introduced for further discussion of the productivity change and regional differences. Findings: On average, Chinese provincial green innovation efficiency should be improved by 24.11% to become efficient. The commercialization stage outperforms the stages of basic research and applied research. Comparisons between the proposed model and input-oriented, output-oriented and non-oriented DNSBM models show that the proposed model is more advanced because it allows some stages to have output-oriented model characteristics while the other stages have input-oriented model characteristics. The examination of the influencing factors reveals that the three stages of the green innovation system have quite diverse influencing factors. Further discussion reveals that Chinese green innovation productivity has increased by 39.85%, which is driven mainly by technology progress, and the increasing tendency of regional differences between northern and southern China should be paid attention to. Originality/value: This study proposes an improved dynamic three-stage slacks-based measure (SBM) model that allows calculating output efficiency in some stages and input efficiency in the other stages with the application of SOCP approach. In order to capture productivity change, this study develops a GDMPI based on the DNSBM model. In practice, the efficiency of regional green innovation in China and the factors that influence each stage are examined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

"The Conservative Futurist: How to Create the Sci-Fi World We Were Promised" by James Pethokoukis explores the decline of technological progress and economic growth in America since the 1970s and offers a vision for returning to a future of rapid innovation and progress. Pethokoukis introduces the distinction between "Up Wing" and "Down Wing" attitudes towards the future, with Up Wing representing a solution-oriented optimism driven by technological progress. The book emphasizes the importance of nurturing an Up Wing culture and highlights the need for policies that support scientific and technological research, infrastructure upgrades, and the development of emerging technologies. The article discusses the concept of conservative futurism and its relationship with politics and technology. The author argues that a truly conservative futurism should embrace both the past and the future, recognizing the wisdom of previous generations while also striving for progress. They criticize the idea of a post-political futurism that seeks to minimize political disagreements and focus solely on technological advancements. The author believes that political challenges are inherent in our engagement with technology and that conservatives should address questions about surveillance, pornography, and the impact of technology on traditions. They conclude that a world without politics is a fantasy and that political decisions and conflicts are inevitable in shaping our technological future. [Extracted from the article]

This work studies a parabolic-parabolic PDE system that describes the evolution of physical capital (denoted by "k") and technological progress (denoted by "A"). The study employs a meshless method in one and two-dimensional bounded domains with regular boundaries. The well-known Solow model is extended to consider the spatial diffusion of both capital and technology. Additionally, we study the case in which induced movement of capital towards regions with a large technological progress occurs. For such models, we propose schemes based on the Generalized Finite Difference method and prove the convergence of the numerical solution to the continuous one, which is the main objective of the study. Several examples show the dynamics of the model for a wide range of parameters, illustrating the accuracy of the numerical method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Due to technical progress in sensor technology and computer power, observation and model data are operationally available today with a high spatial and temporal resolution, suitable for thunderstorm detection and prediction. However, nowcasting the remaining lifetime of an observed thunderstorm is still a challenge to date. To improve nowcasting of deep convective cells, we developed the algorithm LOC-lifetime that predicts the remaining lifetime of thunderstorms based on life-cycle signatures present in satellite, radar, lightning and numerical weather prediction model data. We use the mathematical method "fuzzy logic" to combine this multi-source input and to categorize the thunderstorm evolution into the life-cycle sets growth and decay. We analyzed a data set of almost 1,800 thunderstorms that occurred during the summer months June 2016, May, June, July 2017 and June 2018. The data reveal highly variable life cycles which make it difficult to predict the remaining lifetime on basis of life-cycle statistics. Nevertheless, LOC-lifetime offers an improved nowcasting quality compared to a simpler nowcasting method as it increases the probability of correct prediction and reduces the root-mean-square error. Therefore, we propose the lifetime prediction via LOC-lifetime as a useful tool in combination with other existing algorithms to nowcast and forecast thunderstorms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The twentieth century saw the emergence of a new vision of adulthood, which also adequately considers the informal and non-formal skills of the adult person, to help him in the process of lifelong learning. Until the 1980s people were seen according to a Fordist-Taylorist vision of work and the wealth it could offer. The 21st century, with its brought about scientific and technological progress, instead, began with the awareness of having to invest in the changes that involve and transform people. Lifelong learning must be inserted in the context of the community to which it belongs, as well as the influence it is capable towards adults, but above all towards the acquisition of new skills and planning towards new forms of interaction between people, starting from new educational and work environments. Mezirow, starting from the Action Learning of Revans, has developed these new scientific strands that insist on the interaction between people and the need to transform themselves (Transformative Learning) by acquiring new patterns of meaning in the course of one's life. The European Union and its institutions have recognized this new approach to lifelong learning through specific recommendations and pathways which are promoting an "Italian way" to adulthood.

Jake Sullivan, President Joe Biden's national security advisor, has hailed the success of US efforts to curb China's chip ambitions. While visiting Beijing for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other officials, Sullivan expressed confidence in the US's ability to maintain a technological edge over China, despite any propaganda exercises by Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei. The US has implemented strict tech curbs on China, and Sullivan believes that the overall impact of these efforts is successful, although there are still loopholes. The discussions in Beijing also touched on the US's negotiations with Dutch and Japanese officials to further restrict China's ability to produce advanced semiconductors. [Extracted from the article]
