1. The role and meaning of the digital transformation as a disruptive innovation on small and medium manufacturing enterprisesVasja Roblek, Maja Meško, Franci Pušavec, Borut Likar, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The research reported in this paper explores the impact of digital transformation as a disruptive innovation on manufacturing SMEs. The research is based on a qualitative Delphi study encompassing 49 experts from eleven EU countries. The paper aims to demonstrate how disruptive innovations affect organizational changes and determine critical factors in organizations that impact the initiating and promoting R&D of disruptive innovation. We discovered that disruptive innovations impact product/process development methods, new production concepts, new materials for products, and new organization plans. Additionally, we identified organizational changes related to the development and use of disruptive innovations in the future. We also indicate how disruptive innovations influence social and technological changes in the organizational environment. The analysis also disclosed three main groups of disruptive innovations and their impact on future smart factory development, namely the following: technological changes, the emergence of innovative products, business models and solutions and organizational culture as one of the crucial key success factors. The analysis also examined the enablers of the successful development/introduction of disruptive innovations, wherein internal and external factors were determined. Additionally, we presented obstacles and the approaches necessary to mitigate them. We can conclude from the findings that in the timeframe of 5–10 years, only the SME that uses/develops disruptive innovations will survive in the market. However, the companies do not always have a clear idea of the meaning of disruptive innovations. Therefore, it is important to set clear goals regarding the achievement of disruptive innovations in companies. It is also necessary to creatively apply presented instruments enabling improvement of organizational changes and apply some additional concepts, which we have suggested.

2. Identification and ranking of core values in family medicine : a mixed methods study from UkrainePavlo Kolesnyk, Sabine Bayen, Ivanna Shushman, Andrew Kolesnyk, George Kuodza, Zalika Klemenc-Ketiš, Thomas Frese, 2021, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Introduction/Context: The term core value (CV) can be defined as fundamental beliefs or principles, guiding one's behavior in a social context. Though core competencies of family medicine (FM) have been clearly defined by WONCA, there has been an ongoing debate on what the CVs are for family doctors (FDs). Ukraine is a developing country in the middle of Europe with a population of 43 million inhabitants, gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. Ukraine is a low-income country, developing a modern European healthcare system, especially regarding FM. To implement WONCA standards, it is mandatory to assess the ongoing understanding of CVs in clinical daily practice among active FDs, working in different countries of Europe including Ukraine. Research questions: How do Ukrainian FDs (Delphi group experts) define the CVs of FM in Ukraine and how important are these CVs to a wider population of Ukrainian FDs in their everyday practice? Methods: A mixed method study was conducted in two steps during August and September 2020 in Ukraine. The first part was a qualitative Delphi round (three rounds) design among 20 Ukrainian FDs who were familiar with teaching and terms like CV. A consensus list of six CVs has emerged from the Delphi round study. The second part was a quantitative survey among Ukrainian FDs, who were not specially used to discussing CVs. The consensus list of those six CVs was then submitted to 2000 FDs (randomly selected) who were not involved in the Delphi team, to rank those values from one to nine, according to the importance from their personal point of view. Demographic characteristics have been assessed for all the participants of the Delphi round and quantitative survey. Results: Twenty FDs were involved as experts in the first Delphi round, whereas only five experts continued their participation in the second and the third rounds of the survey. The following six CVs emerged from the Delphi round: comprehensive approach, care coordination, first recourse, continuity of care, integrated approach, and patient and family centered care. The final sample consisted of 375 FDs (19% response rate). There were 323 (88.7%) female and 34 (9.3%) male FDs in the sample. The mean age of the participants was 44.6+-13.5 years. Discussion/Conclusion: Defining CVs for FM by Ukrainian FDs in a given socio-economical and historical-cultural setting is crucial to optimize primary medical care and to guarantee an appropriate and successful implementation of WONCA standards as well as CVs in different countries including those where reformation of the health system is ongoing.

7. Študij dejavnikov pri modeliranju razvoja trajnostne energetikeMatevž Obrecht, 2012, doktorska disertacija Opis: Disertacija je osnovana na aktualni energetski problematiki, kar zajema velik vpliv energetike na okolje, večanje globalnega povpraševanja po energiji, visoko uvozno odvisnosti Evropske unije (EU) od energije, rastoče cene energije in težnje po nadzoru nad viri energije.
Disertacija je osnovana na aktualni energetski problematiki, kar zajema velik vpliv energetike na okolje, večanje globalnega povpraševanja po energiji, visoko uvozno odvisnost Evropske unije (EU) od energije, rastoče cene energije in težnje po nadzoru nad viri energije.
Rešitev zapisanih problemov je zaznana v razvoju trajnostne energetike, ki ne temelji na masovnem povečevanju proizvodnje in rabe energije, temveč na učinkoviti in smotrni rabi energije, proizvedene iz konkurenčnih, okolju in družbi prijaznih virov. Ker je trajnostni razvoj energetike zelo kompleksen, mora biti premišljeno načrtovan ter podprt z znanstvenimi in s strokovnimi študijami s področja načrtovanja razvoja trajnostne energetike. Ena izmed slednjih je tudi študij dejavnikov pri modeliranju razvoja trajnostne energetike.
Disertacija v prvem delu zajema pregled literature, specializiranih baz podatkov, statističnih podatkov, izsledke študij ter obstoječe situacije na področju energetike v svetu, EU in Sloveniji. To predstavlja okvir in meje disertacije. Drugi del raziskave predstavlja celovit pregled literature in analizo izsledkov s področja trajnostne energetike. V tem delu so identificirani in preučeni obstoječi predlogi in smernice posameznih raziskovalcev za razvoj trajnostne energetike, izvedena je primerjalna analiza konvencionalnih in obnovljivih virov energije z vidika trajnostnega razvoja, identificirani, preučeni in analizirani so tudi obstoječi modeli in orodja za načrtovanje energetike oziroma za vzpostavitev trajnostnega razvoja energetike. Pregled literature je dopolnjen še s primeri dobre prakse vzpostavitve razvoja trajnostne energetike.
Tretji in najpomembnejši del raziskave predstavlja praktični del. V tem delu so preučeni ključni dejavniki, ki so pomembni pri modeliranju razvoja trajnostne energetike. Študija je izvedena na primeru vzorčne države – Slovenije. Najprej so preučeni t. i. temeljni dejavniki razvoja energetike, kamor so uvrščeni preučevanje povpraševanja po energiji in energetskih bilanc, analiza mešanice virov energije, ocena potencialov trajnostnih virov energije, predvidevanje bodočega povpraševanja po energiji in testiranje skladnosti potencialov trajnostnih virov energije z bodočimi potrebami po energiji. Poleg temeljnih dejavnikov, bistvenih za načrtovanje razvoja energetike, so preučeni še dejavniki trajnostnega razvoja, kamor uvrščamo ekonomske, okoljske in družbene dejavnike.
V sklopu ekonomskih dejavnikov je izvedena študija odvisnosti obnovljivih virov energije od investicij v obnovljive vire energije, saj je ocenjeno, da je omenjena korelacija pomembna pri vzpostavljanju trajnostne energetike. V tem sklopu sta izvedeni tudi študija eksternih stroškov in primerjalna analiza izbranih obnovljivih in konvencionalnih virov energije, osnovana na primerjavi investicijskih, proizvodnih in eksternih stroškov. Identificirane so tudi inovativne metodologije za ocenjevanje energetskih projektov oziroma ukrepov v njihovem celotnem življenjskem ciklu.
V študij okoljskih dejavnikov je zajeta implikacija ocene okoljskih vplivov energetike v fazi pridobivanja in distribucije energije. Na konkretnem primeru izbrane države so z okoljskega vidika natančno preučene energetske bilance in mešanica virov za proizvodnjo električne energije, identificirani in ocenjeni so tudi vplivi le-tega na okolje v fazi pridobivanja energentov in virov energije, proizvodnje, distribucije ter rabe energije.
Preučevanje družbenih oziroma družbenopolitičnih dejavnikov je osnovano na analizi in oceni družbenega mnenja oziroma mnenja interesnih skupin (javnosti, aktivnih v energetiki, vrhunskih energetskih strokovnjakov) o družbeni primernosti energetike in energetske politike, o smi Ključne besede: trajnostna energetika, energetska politika, obnovljivi viri energije, modeliranje energetike, dejavniki modeliranja razvoja trajnostne energetike, Delphi raziskava, trajnostni razvoj Objavljeno v DKUM: 03.06.2013; Ogledov: 2656; Prenosov: 346 Celotno besedilo (6,74 MB) |
8. Absorptive capacity in European manufacturing: a Delphi studyPetra Jung Erceg, Krsto Pandža, Heidi Armbruster, Carsten Dreher, 2007, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This paper sets out to discuss the results of a specific part of a Europe-wide Delphi study that considers issues of absorptive capacity in European manufacturing. Owing to the importance to competitiveness of increasing innovative capabilities in manufacturing it is highly relevant to explore how a wide community of manufacturing experts experience the phenomenon of absorptive capacity and sense future developments. A two round Delphi method was designed in which more than 3,000 experts from 22 European countries assessed 101 statements. This paper discusses eight statements focused on the issue of absorptive capacity. The results show a general consensus about the influence of different inter-firm relationships in acquiring external knowledge and a diversified knowledge structure for assimilating the acquired knowledge. The study also indicates some potential challenges and contradictions in managing inter-firm relationships and knowledge diversity aswell as perceived barriers for future developments of absorptive capacity. Delphi survey is an empirical method subject to the limitation of testing or inductively building theoretical concepts. The results of the Delphi study arepredominantly centred on policy implication and on informing strategic decision-making at manufacturing firms. This paper discusses one of the biggest Delphi surveys ever conducted in Europe. Its comprehensiveness increases the value of the results.

9. Uporaba skriptnih jezikov v uporabniških programihAnžej Bečan, 2009, diplomsko delo Opis: Informatizacija v poslovnem svetu prinaša vedno večje uporabniške zahteve in konkurenco med programerskimi podjetji. Ena od možnosti za racionaliziran razvoj programskega paketa namiznega okolja za raznolike zahteve več naročnikov je razvoj programskih ogrodij z vgrajenim razvojnim okoljem, ki omogoča prilagajanje uporabniškega programa ter dodajanje novih funkcionalnosti s pomočjo makrojev in osnovnih gradnikov po naročnikovih potrebah.
V diplomskem delu je predstavljenih več razvojnih okolij oz. interpreterjev skriptnih jezikov, ki jih je možno vgraditi po dandanes pogosteje uporabljanih programerskih platformah, s poudarkom na okolju Delphi. Obdelane so predvsem lastnosti vgradnje, možnosti dostopa do razredov in objektov v glavnem programu ter zmogljivosti programskih jezikov. Predstavljena orodja smo primerjali po njihovih zmožnostih in hitrosti izvajanja pogostejših operacij. Ker nekomercialni ali vsaj cenovno ugodnejši produkti uporabljajo pristop z interpretiranjem, je povzeta tudi teorija sintakse in semantike ter interpreterjev.
Praktičen del diplomske naloge predstavlja orodje OrbitaDAT (Database Administration Tool) za hiter dostop do podatkovnih baz z vgrajenim interpreterjem paxScript, naprednejšim urejevalnikom makrojev in možnostjo časovno razporejenih opravil.
