1. ON THE ROLE OF SWITCHING COSTS AND DECISION REVERSIBILITY IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION AND INVESTMENT
ABSTRACT Managerial decisions on the adoption of innovative technologies by a firm are made under conditions of uncertainty and must account for network externalities that imply the benefit of a technology is received not only from its intrinsic payoff, but also from the size of the network of other adopters. The theoretical model presented in this study dem

2. Effect of Nostalgia on Customer Loyalty to Brand Post-Merger / Acquisition
The main objective of this study is to identify the effect of nostalgic feelings on consumer loyalty to the prevailing brand following the extinction of a brand in a merger/acquisition process. We also propose an explanatory model of the relationships between tests of relevant constructs. Based on a review and theoretical reflection on the constructs under s

3. Valuing flexibility in electro-intensive industries: the case of an aluminum smelter
Abstract Electro-intensive industries account for a significant proportion of the total industrial electricity consumption, and these industries usually possess co-generation assets, which can supply at least part of their energy needs. However, due to price uncertainty, it may be optimal for the firm to temporarily suspend production and sell the available

4. Airline customer loyalty through analysis of stated preference
Abstract This study evaluates airline customer loyalty and estimates the switching costs for a domestic airline route in Brazil through a stated preference survey. Several structures of discrete choice models were tested to represent the choice of behavior: multinomial logit, mixed logit random coefficients, multinomial logit incorporating systematic variati

5. Antecedentes da lealdade do segmento business-to-business (B2B): um estudo com clientes bancários no Rio Grande do Sul
Many studies have been made about relationship marketing with the intention of straightening the bonds between companies and clients. But the relationship between two companies (client/supplier) or market B2B is worth of distinction. These consumer companies usually stand out at this relation, in the sense that most of the time their products and services pu

6. A dynamic model of price competition with switching and search costs
Em modelos de competição de preços, somente um custo de procura positivo por parte do consumidor não gera equilíbrio com dispersão de preços. Já modelos dinâmicos de switching cost consistentemente geram este fenômeno bastante documentado para preços no varejo. Embora ambas as literaturas sejam vastas, poucos modelos tentaram combinar as duas fric

7. Reconfiguração de redes de distribuição de energia elétrica usando algoritmo genético multiobjetivo
In this work, the reconfiguration of electrical energy distribution systems is studied by using a multi-objective genectic algorithm. Three objective functions are considered here: monetary costs of the network(installation, maintenance and energy losses), costs involved in the reability of the system and number of lines switching used for the reconfiguratio

8. ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION POWER SYSTEMS RELIABILITY OPTIMIZATION: An Approach Considering the Selection and Allocation of Protection and Switching Devices / OTIMIZAÇÃO DA CONFIABILIDADE DE SISTEMAS DE DISTRIBUIÇÃO DE ENERGIA ELÉTRICA: Uma Abordagem Considerando a Seleção e Alocação de Dispositivos de Proteção e Manobras
One of the main goals of the electric utilities is to provide energy to its customers in a reliable and low cost way. Traditionally, the electricity sector regulatory commissions impose continuity targets, which must be carried out, to avoid great penalties. For many years, the electric utilities have adopted the practice of allowing the increment of tempora

10. Nodes architecture and traffic engineering in optical networks / Arquitetura de nós e engenharia de tráfego em redes ópticas
Integrating telecommunication networks has enlarged the coverage, but has made operations more complex, mainly because of the architecture, formed by various layers. These layers deal with different protocols and transmission rates, as well as electrical and optical signals. The usual alternative of expanding the resources proportionally to the demand is imp

11. Altenative analytical methods to quality evaluation of forages used in animal nutrition / Métodos analíticos alternativos para avaliação da qualidade de forrageiras utilizadas na nutrição animal
Alternative methods were developed for some determinations performed in routine by animal nutrition laboratories, in order to increase laboratory efficiency and reduce costs maintaining analytical quality. In the first step, a multicomutation point to point potentiometric titration system to total acid in silage extracts with the use of a PVC (tridodecilamin
