Delphi Markets
(2023)
Delphi markets refer to approaches and implementations of integrating prediction markets and Delphi studies (Real-time Delphi). The combination of the two methods for producing forecasts can potentially compensate for each other´s weaknesses. For example, prediction markets can be used to select participants with expertise and also motivate long-term participation through their gamified approach and incentive mechanisms. In this paper, two potentials for prediction markets and four potentials for Delphi studies, which are made possible by integration, are derived theoretically. Subsequently, three different integration approaches are presented, on the basis of which the integration on user, market and Delphi question-level is exemplified and it is shown that, depending on the approach, not all potentials can be achieved. At the end, recommendations for the use of Delphi markets are derived, existing limitations for Delphi markets as well as future developments are pointed out.
In today's business landscape, companies compete more and more as integrated supply chains rather than as individual firms. The success of the entire supply chain determines the economic well-being of each company involved. With management attention shifting to supply chains, the role of management accounting naturally must extend to the cross-company layer as well. This book demonstrates how management accounting can make a significant contribution to supply chain success. It targets students who are already familiar with the fundamentals of accounting and want to extend their expertise in the field of cross-company (or network) management accounting. Practitioners will draw valuable insights from the text as well.
This second edition includes a new chapter on Digitalization and Supply Chain Accounting, as well as new opener cases to each chapter that provide real-world examples.
Enterprises and societies currently face essential challenges, and digital transformation can contribute to their resolution. Enterprise architecture (EA) is useful for promoting digital transformation in global companies and information societies covering ecosystem partners. The advancement of new business models can be promoted with digital platforms and architectures for Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. Therefore, products from the sector of healthcare, manufacturing and energy, etc. can increase in value. The adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) for Industry 4.0 and the design thinking approach is expected to promote and implement the digital platforms and digital products for healthcare, manufacturing and energy communities more efficiently. In this paper, we propose various cases of digital transformation where digital platforms and products are designed and evaluated for digital IT, digital manufacturing and digital healthcare with Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. The vision of AIDAF applications to perform digital transformation in global companies is explained and referenced, extended toward the digitalized ecosystems such as Society 5.0 and Industry 4.0.
Current advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) combined with other digitalization efforts are changing the role of technology in service ecosystems. Human-centered intelligent systems and services are the target of many current digitalization efforts and part of a massive digital transformation based on digital technologies. Artificial intelligence, in particular, is having a powerful impact on new opportunities for shared value creation and the development of smart service ecosystems. Motivated by experiences and observations from digitalization projects, this paper presents new methodological experiences from academia and practice on a joint view of digital strategy and architecture of intelligent service ecosystems and explores the impact of digitalization based on real case study results. Digital enterprise architecture models serve as an integral representation of business, information, and technology perspectives of intelligent service-based enterprise systems to support management and development. This paper focuses on the novel aspect of closely aligned digital strategy and architecture models for intelligent service ecosystems and highlights the fundamental business mechanism of AI-based value creation, the corresponding digital architecture, and management models. We present key strategy-oriented architecture model perspectives for intelligent systems.
In today’s education, healthcare, and manufacturing sectors, organizations and information societies are discussing new enhancements to corporate structure and process efficiency using digital platforms. These enhancements can be achieved using digital tools. Industry 5.0 and Society 5.0 give several potentials for businesses to enhance the adaptability and efficacy of their industrial processes, paving the door for developing new business models facilitated by digital platforms. Society 5.0 can contribute to a super-intelligent society that includes the healthcare industry. In the past decade, the Internet of Things, Big Data Analytics, Neural Networks, Deep Learning, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have revolutionized our approach to various job sectors, from manufacturing and finance to consumer products. AI is developing quickly and efficiently. We have heard of the latest artificial intelligence chatbot, ChatGPT. OpenAI created this, which has taken the internet by storm. We tested the effectiveness of a considerable language model referred to as ChatGPT on four critical questions concerning “Society 5.0”, “Healthcare 5.0”, “Industry,” and “Future Education” from the perspectives of Age 5.0.

This book examines the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in East Africa. The BRI is considered China's central geopolitical and geo-economic project in the era of President Xi Jinping. Through this work, the author aims to contribute to filling some research gaps, such as the lack of depth in studies of individual BRI projects and the underconsideration of processing narratives in participating countries. The guiding question is the extent to which the BRI is a political or hegemonic project of the CCP-directed state-civil society complex in East Africa. To answer these questions, databases of international organizations and policy documents are analyzed. In addition, the author conducts a qualitative content analysis of newspaper articles from local media houses in the countries of Ethiopia, Kenya, and Tanzania to examine three infrastructure projects. The work illustrates that the BRI contributes to increasing connectivity in East Africa. At the same time, the compression of economic relations and the implementation of infrastructure projects in East Africa lead to numerous consequences and contour a hegemonic project.
Enterprises and societies currently face crucial challenges, while Society 5.0 can contribute to a supersmart society, especially for manufacturing and healthcare, and Industry 4.0 becomes important in the global manufacturing industry. Smart energy digital platforms are architected to manage energy supply efficiently. Furthermore, the above digital platforms are expected to collect various kinds of data and analyze Big Data for the trends in the sharing economy in ecosystems. The adaptive integrated digital architecture framework (AIDAF) for Design Thinking Approach with Risk Management is expected to make an alignment with digital IT strategy. In this paper, we propose that various energy management systems and related digital platforms are designed and implemented in an alignment to digital IT strategy for sharing economy toward Society 5.0, with the AIDAF framework for Design Thinking Approach with Risk Management. The vision of AIDAF applications to enable sharing economy and digital platforms is explained and extended in the context of Society 5.0. In addition, challenges and future activities for this area are discussed that cover the directions of smart energy for Society 5.0.
An autonomous vehicle is a robotic vehicle with decision and action capability capable of performing assigned tasks without or with minimal human intervention. Autonomous cars have been in development for many years. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE International) published in 2014 a classification in five levels of driving automation, with level 0 corresponding to completely manual driving, and level 5 to an ideal dream where the vehicle would be able to navigate entirely autonomously for all missions and in all environments. This work addressed the navigation of an autonomous vehicle in general. We focus on one of the most complex scenarios of the road network and crossing of road intersections. In this paper, the critical features of autonomous intelligent vehicles are reviewed. Furthermore, the associated problems are presented, and the most advanced solutions are derived. This article aims to allow a novice in this field to understand the different facets of localization and perception problems for autonomous vehicles.
