(October 2018) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) The i.MX range is the Freescale Semiconductor family (now part of NXP) proprietary microcontrometers for arm-based multimedia applications that focus on low energy consumption. Processors i.MX are SoCs (System-on-Chip), which include a number of processing units in one die, such as the main CPU, the video processing unit and the graphics processing unit, for example. Products i.MX are trained in automotive, industrial and consumer markets. Most are guaranteed for a production life of 10 to 15 years. [1] Many devices use i.MX processors, such as Ford Sync, Kobo eReader, Amazon Kindle, Zune (except Zune HD), Sony Reader, Onyx Boox readers/tablets, SolidRun SOM's (including CuBox), Purism's Librem 5, some Logitech Harmony remote control squeeze ibox radio, some Toshiba Gigabeata mp4 players.

[3] This is how the Linuxfoundation describes it: Linux is, in simplest terms, an operating system. Linux distribution’s makers have decided which kernel, operating system tools, environments, and applications to include and ship to users. There are, at last count, over 350 distinct distributions of Linux. [4] What is Android? [5] According to the Android developers website [6]: Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications. The Android SDK [7] provides the tools and APIs necessary to begin developing applications on the Android platform using the Java programming language. • More official Linux than Android distros - Linux more diverse. • Linux’s application development not limited to Java. • The OS used by Android is a fork of the Linux kernel. History Linux Figure 1: Memorable Linux Milestones [8][9] Nowadays Linux runs on many different kinds of devices. From wrist watches to supercomputers.

E-mail: [email protected] Gianluca Biotto University of Udine, Department of Electrical, Managerial and Mechanical Engineering, via delle Scienze 208, 33100 Udine, Italy. E-mail: [email protected] Alberto F. De Toni University of Udine, Department of Electrical, Managerial and Mechanical Engineering, via delle Scienze 208, 33100 Udine, Italy. E-mail: [email protected] * Corresponding author Abstract Achieving successful, repeated organizational innovation is a never ending primary challenge for companies. But often this cannot be pursued in a standalone modality. New practices are emerging to foster innovation, by building networks for collaboration and leveraging networks of outsiders. A structured collective approach to favor cross-fertilization and technology transfer among companies is needed. This work first builds a framework to analyze the existing Open Innovation Platforms, then presents a classification of the web ones that permitted to propose a conceptual best of breed platform for collaborative innovation. We address how it is possible to create a collaborative network through open innovation platforms, highlighting the best context and the dynamics of the cross-fertilization among different actors and innovation roles. Basing on literature and empirical analysis, in our opinion the main roots to feed an innovation ecosystem based on web platforms are: communities, self- organization and cognitive diversity. Keywords Collective innovation; open innovation; innovation ecosystems; emergent communities; crowdsourcing; web-platform for innovation. Cinzia Battistella, Gianluca Biotto, Alberto F.

  • Working Paper Gesamt
    Technologie- und Innovationsmanagement WORKING PAPER How open is open source – Software and beyond Kerstin Balka Christina Raasch Cornelius Herstatt October 2009 Working Paper No. 58 Hamburg University of Technology Schwarzenbergstr. 95, D-21073 Hamburg, Germany Tel.: +49 (0)40 42878-3777; Fax: +49 (0)40 42878-2867 www.tu-harburg.de/tim Abstract Traditionally the protection of intellectual property is regarded as a pre- condition for value capture. The rise of open source (OS) software and OS tangible products, so-called open design, has challenged this understand- ing. Openness is often regarded as a dichotomous variable (open-source vs. closed-source) and it is assumed that online developer communities demand full opening of the product’s source. In this paper we explore openness as a gradual and multi-dimensional concept. We conduct an Internet survey ( N = 270) among participants of 20 open design communities in the domain of IT hardware and consumer electronics. We find that open design projects pursue complex strategies short of complete openness and that communities value openness of software more highly than openness of hardware. Our findings suggest that open design companies can successfully employ strategies of partial openness to safeguard value capture without alienating their developer community. 1 Introduction Economic theory tells us that firms generate innovations in order to reap economic rents. It also tells us that inventions require intellectual property protection in order for imitation competition to be prevented and thus for innovative firms to capture the value they created (Arrow, 1962). Intellectual property rights carry this assurance and thereby serve to incentivise firms to perform their innovating function in the economy.

  • Innovation at the Edge: Social TV and Beyond
    MIT CFP—VCDWG Working Papers: Innovation at the Edge: Social TV and Beyond Natalie Klym (MIT) and Marie José Montpetit (Motorola) Value Chain Dynamics Working Group (VCDWG) MIT Communications Futures Program (CFP) September 1, 2008 The premise of the Value Chain Dynamics Working Group’s research is the movement of communication service functions outside the exclusive control of the network core. Traditionally, communication services were provided by network operators as a vertically integrated set of functions. Today, more and more of these functions have moved outside the core while new ones have emerged. Our research takes this fundamental change in the architecture of the communications infrastructure as its starting point. Through our case studies, we seek to map out emerging value chains and examine the opportunities for creating and capturing value. Introduction In the last few years, we have seen the rise of new systems for delivering video content to consumers, including digital, IP, and wireless networks. These systems constitute modifications or alternatives to the traditional analog platforms of OTA, cable, and satellite. An important part of these technological developments is the increasingly wider array of end user devices that connect to these platforms—and each other—including STBs, DVRs, PCs, digital recorders, and portable media like cell phones and PDAs. The “edge” occupied by these end user devices comprises a very dynamic part of the value chain for all new TV systems. Devices integrate multiple content and value-added services— both authorized and unauthorized—and their respective value chains into the TV ecosystem, expanding its boundaries and creating new opportunities for both network operators and non-network players to create and capture value while dramatically changing the TV experience for consumers.
