Knowledge externalities and firm heterogeneity: Effects on high and low growth firms

Knowledge externalities affect high and low growth firms differently. This paper develops two theoretical arguments. The knowledge equilibrium argument postulates that knowledge externalities weaken high growth firms for the benefit of low growth firms until performance differences vanish. The knowledge competition argument proposes that high growth firms are better positioned to identify, attract

AI Market Survey: Current State of AI in the Øresund Region Private Sector

The prevalence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the business landscape is indisputable. However, there are considerable gaps between the visionary ideas businesses communicate and their operational use of AI. The goal of this market survey is to identify companies currently working with AI in the Øresund Region - referred to as AI companies. The survey, conducted between June and September 2020,

An investigation into students’ attitudes towards the value of poetry and their knowledge of poetry analysis

Though poetry analysis is a central component of literary studies in higher education, research frequently reports that attitudes of both students and teachers to its incorporation in syllabi are mixed (Weaven & Clark, 2014). Previous research suggests a complex relationship between attitudes to and knowledge of poetry with some studies indicating that negative attitudes might be the result of

The PL-Detective Revisited

The semantics of programming languages comprise many concepts that are alternatives to each other, such as by-reference and by-value parameter passing. To help teach these concepts, Diwan et al. introduced the programming language Mystery, with fixed syntax but configurable semantics, and described how this language enables new approaches to teaching programming languages concepts. In this paper,

What’s important? Making what is valuable and worth protecting explicit when performing risk and vulnerability analyses

Values and opinions about what is valuable, are of centralimportance in risk and vulnerability analyses. Yet what is considered valuableis seldom explicitly established. The aim of this study is to explore what groupsof civil servants express as valuable and worth protecting when performing riskand vulnerability analyses in their organisations and to discuss the underlyingreasons for their stipula

The Threat to the Baltic Salmon - a Combination of Persistent Pollutants, Parasite and Oxidative Stress

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from the Baltic Sea suffer from a reproduction disease known as the M74-syndrome. Newly hatched fry develop nerve disorders and die between 3-5 days after the first symptoms are seen. This is a maternally transmitted disease that is casued by a thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. The factor(s) that casue(s) this thiamine deficiency are largely unknown. However, several

Memories of features, memories in finds. The remembrance of the past in Iron Age Scandinavia

Memory in prehistoric societies may be observed in the repetitive use of places and artefacts. The fact that sites were used for different purposes with intervals of several centuries indicates that information about land use, e.g. for ritual purposes, was retained for several generations. In some cases the use of old cemeteries and the copying of old ornaments might act as a link to past times wi

A Tale of Beauties and Beasts: Testing the Optimal Disclosure Hypothesis

According to the cost-of-capital hypothesis, increased voluntary disclosure should reduce information asymmetries, lower the cost of capital, and increase firm value. The optimal-disclosure hypothesis, however, predicts that costs related to voluntary disclosure lead to the existence of an interior optimum of disclosure that maximizes firm value. These hypotheses are empirically tested using a pre

Evaluation of novel hollow fiber membranes for NOM removal by advanced membrane autopsy

A full-scale inside out hollow fibre membrane module was operated in a pilot-scale water treatmentplant in Sweden for a period of 12 months from August 2013 to July 2014. Liquid chromatography–organic carbon detection (LC-OCD) chromatogram indicated the membranes could effectivelyremove 86% of dissolved organic carbon and 92% of humic substances from the feedwater.
