  • Effects of Digital Regulations on International Business Strategy
    Effects of Digital Regulations on International Business Strategy A multi-case study by Laurin Fahrnberger Willian Trindade Leite May 2021 Bachelor’s Programme in International Business Supervisor: Sotaro Shibayama Abstract Digital technologies have brought new challenges to society, such as data privacy abuses, attacks on democracy, and even military-grade technologies being accessed by civilians. Europe has taken the leadership by regulating different aspects of the digital economy; however, these regulations may create distortions that will harm European businesses. This study tries to draw a picture of the different types of regulations introduced in the digital economy and the potential effects on how international firms strategize. To aid in this analysis, eight cases, comprising seven companies and one trade association, bring a first-person insight into how digital regulations work today and how much it has affected their strategy. The studied companies are international and primarily European, but the digital technologies they use in their business models vary greatly. The existing theory tries to explain the general effects of regulation on aspects of strategy but seldomly takes a broader approach. This dissertation studies the broader impacts of regulations on international business strategy, mostly in what concerns how the products are developed and adapted to each market or whether digital companies are more likely to pursue arbitrage. The analysis of each case is made using Ghemawat’s (2007) model for international business strategy and Rugman and Verbeke’s (1998 and 1998b) models for the effect of environmental regulations on business strategy. In most cases, one particular trend indicates that digital companies that find regulations complementary to their business strategies tend to follow an AA strategy comprising aggregation and adaptation.

  • Leveraging Augmented Reality for Highway Construction
    Leveraging Augmented Reality for Highway Construction PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-HRT-20-038 NOVEMBER 2020 Research, Development, and Technology Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center 6300 Georgetown Pike McLean, VA 22101-2296 FOREWORD Augmented reality (AR) is an immersive technology that combines computer-generated information with real-world imagery in real time. AR enhances the user’s perception of reality and enriches information content. In the context of highway construction, enriched content can help project managers and engineers deliver projects faster, safer, and with greater accuracy and efficiency. Navigating through the phases of a construction project allows managers to catch errors before construction and potentially improve design and construction details. Managers can also use AR tools for training, inspection, and stakeholder outreach. This study focused on documenting current AR technologies and applications, with an emphasis on the state of the practice for using AR technologies in design, construction, and inspection applications for highways. This study included a literature review and interviews with researchers and vendors. This report is intended for State departments of transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, highway contractors and designers, and academic institutions involved in highway construction research.
