An Agent-Based Representation of the Garbage Can Model of Organizational Choice
Cohen, March and Olsen\'s Garbage Can Model (GCM) of organizational choice represent perhaps the first – and remains by far the most influential –agent-based representation of organizational decision processes. According to the GCM organizations are conceptualized as crossroads of time-dependent flows of four distinct classes of objects: \'participants,\' \'opportunities,\' \'solutions\' and \'problems.\' Collisions among the different objects generate events called \'decisions.\' In this paper we use NetLogo to build an explicit agent-based representation of the original GCM. We conduct a series of simulation experiments to validate and extend some of the most interesting conclusions of the GCM. We show that our representation is able to reproduce a number of properties of the original model. Yet, unlike the original model, in our representation these properties are not encoded explicitly, but emerge from general principles of the Garbage Can decision processes.Organization Theory, Garbage Can Model, Agent-Based Modelling
Different trajectories of industrial evolution : demographical turnover in the European motorcycle industry, 1885-1993
Technological innovation is widely considered as one of the most influential determinants of industry evolution. Along this line of inquiry, the seminal work of Tushman and Anderson (1986) presents one of the most compelling theoretical argumentations. Yet, the empirical support for their theory has been relatively weak, and an academic agreement is still lacking about the long-term consequences of technological innovation for the demographic composition of industries. This paper uses the information collected on 1,906 manufacturers during the period 1895 and 1993, to investigate the influence of technological innovation on the evolution of four different organizational populations - i.e. Great Britain, Germany, France and Italy. The findings of this research only partially agree with the theory. Our results show that, while innovations promoted entries, incumbent firms survived to environmental changes. The implications of this work are related to the literatures of strategic management and population ecology.

Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, kebutuhan energi listrik di pulau Sumba terus
meningkat seiring dengan perkembangan ekonomi daerah dan pertumbuhan penduduk.
Sebagian besar listrik (85%) di produksi dari pembangkit listrik tenaga diesel dengan
kapasitas pembangkit bervariasi antara 200-800 kW, sehingga secara keseluruhan pembangkit
listrik PLN di pulau Sumba saat ini tidak memiliki cukup kapasitas untuk memenuhi
permintaan pasokan listrik. Saat ini, kebutuhan energi listrik menurut perkiraan PLN bahwa
penggunaan energi listrik oleh rumah tangga sekitar 75%, komersial sekitar 20%, dan industri
dan lainnya sekitar 5%. PLN Sumba terus membangun dan mempeluas jaringan termasuk
menghubungkan jaringan ke lokasi-lokasi yang terisolasi dari jaringan utama dan menambah
kapasitas pembangkit, sehingga penyelaruran energy listrik dapat dimaksimalkan dan sisi
permintaan dapat dipenuhi. Untuk memastikan pasokan lisrik yang handal, di perlukan
kapasitas pembangkit cadangan. Dalam pengembangannya berdasarkan RUPTL (2011-2020)
PLN area Sumba PLN membuat rancangan pengadaan energi listrik skala kecil, dengan fokus
pada penyediaan energi melalui pemanfaatan sumber energi terbarukan. Target ini adalah
bahwa kontribusi dari pembangkit energy terbarukan sebesar 65% pada tahun 2020, dengan
demikian target rasio elektrifikasi sebesar 95% untuk wilayah Sumba tercapai. Sumbersumber pembangkit energy terbarukan ini atau distributed generation (DG) berasal dari
mikrohidro, panel surya (PV), biomass, maupun pembangkit bayu (wind energy).

In most recent years, the necessity of electrification power electrical systems in Sumba island is rising
in correlation with the economic development and the number of population. the majority of electricity
(85%) is diesel power plant from 200 – 800 Kw. Currently, State Electricity Company (PLN) in
Sumba district has a limited capacity to provide a supply of electricity. Based on state electricity
company forecast, there 75% is using for households, whereas 20% in commercial sectors and 5% are
using for a small industry. State Electricity Company (PLN) of Sumba island continues to expand the
network and connecting small and isolated network to the main network and increase the capacity of
the power plant. The development has been affected the supply of connected networks from the
demand side. To ensure the reliable power supply, required reserve generating capacity. State
Electricity Company (PLN) hold a role in RUPTL PT.PLN (persero) 2011-2020. PLN designed of
small-scale of electricity provision. Sumba island’s renewable energy targets 65% of renewable
energy contribution in 2020. In order to achieve 95% electrification ratio in Sumba. In this case,
development of new power plants such distributed plan (DG). In this case of study, Sumba island has a
potential of renewable energy resources to generate electrical energy. Such waters, wind and solar
which can be utilized as a small- scale power plant. Distributed power plan (DG) is one of the
solutions for reactive power compensation to reduce power losses in the distribution network and
improves voltage stability and loading capacity of the electrical system in Sumba island.
Keywords: voltage stability, power losses, distributed generation (DG), loading capability

Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang terdiri atas 4 perlakuan dan 4 ulangan diterapkan dalam penelitian ini. Perlakuan tersebut adalah P1= tapioka 100%, P2= tapioka 75% + tepung talas 25%, P3 = tapioka 75% + tepung ubi jalar ungu 25%, dan P4 = tapioka 75%+ tepung sorgum putih 25%. Variabel yang diteliti adalah kadar amilosa, kadar amilopektin, antioksidan, dan oksidasi lemak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan berpengaruh sangat nyata (P<0,01) terhadap aktivitas antioksidan dan oksidasi lemak, berpengaruh nyata (<0,05) terhadap amilosa tetapi berpengaruh tidak nyata (P>0,05) terhadap kadar amilopektin. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan ragam tepung sebagai substitusi tapioka 25% menghasilkan sosis broiler dengan karakteristik kimia yang cukup baik. Penggunaan tepung sorgum putih menghasilkan kadar amilosa yang sama dengan tapioka sementara penggunaan tepung ubi jalar ungu menghasilkan sosis dengan aktivias antioksidan yang tinggi dengan oksidasi lemak terendah dan amilopektin yang sama dengan tapioka
The analysis of multilevel networks in organizations: models and empirical tests
This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from the publisher via the DOI in this recordStudies of social networks in organizations confront analytical challenges posed by the multilevel effects of hierarchical relations between organizational subunits on the presence or absence of informal network relations among organizational members. Conventional multilevel models may be usefully adopted to control for generic forms of non-independence between tie variables defined at multiple levels of analysis. Such models, however, are unable to identify the specific multilevel dependence mechanisms generating the observed network data. This is the basic difference between multilevel analysis of networks and the analysis of multilevel networks. The aim of this article is to show how recently derived multilevel exponential random graph models (MERGMs) may be specified and estimated to address the problems posed by the analysis of multilevel networks in organizations. We illustrate our methodological proposal using data on hierarchical subordination and informal communication relations between top managers in a multiunit industrial group. We discuss the implications of our results in the broader context of current theories of organizations as connected multilevel systems.Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF

Knowledge sharing in organizations: A Bayesian analysis of the role of reciprocity and formal structure
This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from the publisher via the DOI in this recordWe examine the conditions under which knowledge embedded in advice relations is likely to reach across intraorganizational boundaries and be shared between distant organizational members. We emphasize boundary-crossing relations because activities of knowledge transfer and sharing across subunit boundaries are systematically related to desirable organizational outcomes. Our main objective is to understand how organizational and social processes interact to sustain the transfer of knowledge carried by advice relations. Using original fieldwork and data that we have collected on members of the top management team in a multiunit industrial group, we show that knowledge embedded in task advice relations is unlikely to crosscut intraorganizational boundaries, unless advice relations are reciprocated, and supported by the presence of hierarchical relations linking managers in different subunits. The results we report are based on a novel Bayesian Exponential Random Graph Models (BERGMs) framework that allows us to test and assess the empirical value of our hypotheses while at the same time accounting for structural characteristics of the intraorganizational network of advice relations. We rely on computational and simulation methods to establish the consistency of the network implied by the model we propose with the structure of the intraorganizational network that we actually observed
Relational hyperevent models for polyadic interaction networks
Polyadic, or "multicast" social interaction networks arise when one sender
addresses multiple receivers simultaneously. Currently available relational
event models (REM) are not well suited to the analysis of polyadic interaction
networks because they specify event rates for sets of receivers as functions of
dyadic covariates associated with the sender and one receiver at a time.
Relational hyperevent models (RHEM) address this problem by specifying event
rates as functions of hyperedge covariates associated with the sender and the
entire set of receivers. For instance, hyperedge covariates can express the
tendency of senders to repeatedly address the same pairs (or larger sets) of
receivers - a simple and frequent pattern in polyadic interaction data which,
however, cannot be expressed with dyadic covariates. In this article we
demonstrate the potential benefits of RHEMs for the analysis of polyadic social
interaction. We define and discuss practically relevant effects that are not
available for REMs but may be incorporated in empirical specifications of RHEM.
We illustrate the empirical value of RHEM, and compare them with related REM,
