Web sites on the Internet provide the canvas that Understanding SharePoint organizations can use to explain their missions and goals, advertise their Designer basics products, perform business transactions, and communicate with their cus- tomers and partners. Exploring hidden metadata and raw Webs It’s apparent that the Internet as a medium offers tremendous prospects and Maintaining Web sites opportunities. To exploit this medium, Web site designers have a range of Internet technologies to choose from. From simple markup languages (such as HTML) to complex application development technologies (such as ASP. NET), there are a variety of platforms on which you can base your Web site application. To achieve the most from these technologies without having to re-create a lot of work, many Web site development tools and products are available to you.

  • INSIDE MICROSOFT (Part 2) 2/7/04 2:30 PM
    07/15/96 INSIDE MICROSOFT (Part 2) 2/7/04 2:30 PM INSIDE MICROSOFT (Part 2) The untold story of how the Internet forced Bill Gates to reverse course (Continued from Part 1) BABY STEPS. In one breakout group, Allard tangled with Russell Siegelman, who was heading Marvel, the code name for what's now the Microsoft Network online service. Allard argued that instead of being proprietary, Marvel should be based on Web standards. Siegelman held his ground--and won. It was a decision that would later cost millions to reverse. Still, Net progress was made: TCP/IP would be integrated into Win95 and Windows NT, the version of Windows that runs network-server computers. The sales team was told to use the Web to dispense marketing information. The applications group agreed to give Word, the word-processing program, the ability to create Web pages. Next, Gates jumped deeper into the process by devoting much of his April Think Week--a semiannual retreat--to the Internet. His Apr. 16 memo, ``Internet Strategy and Technical Goals,'' contained the first signs of a growing corporate commitment. ``We want to and will invest resources to be a leader in Internet support,'' wrote Gates. It was a first step, albeit a measured one. ``I don't think he knew how much to bet yet,'' says Allard. But board member David F. Marquardt did: He recalls that he was ``amazed'' that Microsoft was putting so little into the Net. ``They weren't in Silicon Valley. When you're here, you feel it all around you,'' says Marquardt, a general partner at Technology Venture Investors in Menlo Park, Calif.

  • Microsoft Frontpage - Wikipédia
    16/02/13 Microsoft FrontPage - Wikipédia Microsoft FrontPage Microsoft FrontPage (officiellement Microsoft Office FrontPage) est un logiciel propriétaire qui fut inclus dans la Microsoft Office FrontPage suite Microsoft Office entre 1997 et 2003. C'est un logiciel de création de page Web de type WYSIWYG, permettant de travailler avec le code HTML fonctionnant sur les systèmes d'exploitation Windows. Une version Macintosh a également été publiée en 1998. Depuis décembre 2006, il a été remplacé par Microsoft Expression Web et Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer. Sommaire 1 Historique Développeur Microsoft 2 Description Dernière 2003 3 Fonctionnalités version 4 Critiques Environnement Windows 4.1 La qualité du code Type Logiciel WYSIWYG de 4.2 La non-interopérabilité création de sites Web 5 Versions Licence Propriétaire 6 Voir aussi 6.1 Articles connexes 7 Liens externes Historique FrontPage fut créé par la société Vermeer Technologies Incorporated (Cambridge, Massachusetts, États-Unis), ce qui peut être mis en évidence d'une façon assez facile grâce aux préfixes _vti_ qui figurent sur les noms des fichiers et dossiers créés par FrontPage pour un site web. Vermeer Technologies Incorporated a été acheté par Microsoft en 1996, dans l'unique but de pouvoir inclure FrontPage dans la suite Office. Comme tout éditeur WYSIWYG, FrontPage cachait le code HTML à l'utilisateur. Ce qui permettait à des utilisateurs novices de pouvoir créer un site web facilement. La première version de FrontPage estampillé Microsoft fut publiée en 1996 lors de la sortie de Windows NT 4.0 Server. Disponible sur un CD annexe lors de l'achat de Windows NT 4.0, FrontPage 1.1 pouvait être utilisé avec un système d'exploitation du type NT 4.0 (Server ou Workstation) ou encore Windows 95, et le but était de permettre aux administrateurs informatiques de créer des sites web évolués de la même façon que s'ils utilisaient Microsoft Word.

  • Digital Conglomerates: Setting the Agenda for Enterprise 2.0 by Don Tapscott, David Ticoll and Dan Herman
    October 2, 2006 Digital Conglomerates: Setting the Agenda for Enterprise 2.0 by Don Tapscott, David Ticoll and Dan Herman The Story in Brief Google, Amazon, eBay, Yahoo, and Microsoft represent a new business species—the Digital Conglomerate (DC). These expansionist business engines present both threats and opportunities for industry incumbents, from automotive manufacturers to telecoms. In their attempt to respond, traditional firms face hurdles that range from legacy offerings and technologies, to creaky cultures and entrenched business models. Some seek anti-competitive regulatory protections like the elimination of Net neutrality, but the likely winners will be more adaptive. Strategies for exploiting the opportunities include partnering, acquisitions, and adoption (or at least mimicking) of DC business practices. But competitive success depends on matching the differentiators that distinguish DCs as Enterprise 2.0 (Open Networked Enterprise) exemplars. Table of Contents “Just do it” business practices enable DCs to excel at agile, near-continuous innovation 1 DCs are a New Class of Conglomerate, Rooted in the Internet 11 Incumbents Should Consider a Portfolio of Strategies in Response to the DC Challenge Digital conglomerates have powerful collections of attributes Missing the point: The use of regulatory and market constraints to limit DC effectiveness Leading DCs mastered value innovation for “Web 2.0” long before the term became fashionable Response Strategy 1: Get into the game via acquisitions Their modus operandi harnesses

  • Platform Business Models – a Case Study of the Technology Industry
    Journal of Economics and Management Sciences; Vol. 4, No. 1; 2021 ISSN 2576-3008 E-ISSN 2576-3016 https://doi.org/10.30560/jems.v4n1p18 Platform Business Models – A Case Study of the Technology Industry Carmen-Alexandra Stoian1 & Dragos Tohanean2 1 Accounting, Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania 2 Business Administration, Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania Correspondence: Carmen-Alexandra Stoian, Accounting Doctoral School, Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania. Received: February 4, 2021; Accepted: March 8, 2021; Published: March 8, 2021 Abstract The opportunity to create a value exchange environment is uniquely offered by the platform businesses. A novel approach of co-creating value is writing the rules in the platform business world. This paper analyzes the platform business models within the technology industry based on a multiple case study. As the main driver of business performance in this environment is technology, companies are using it to develop new products or to provide technology as a service. Thus, the main objective is to debate on the actual business needs in terms of business model innovation and to investigate how platform business models are developed through strategic acquisitions to achieve competitive advantage. The cases analysis suggests that technology acquisitions made around the core business may contribute to business model innovation. In addition, new partnerships with the external environment may facilitate mutual value creation exchanges and the platform may evolve through adding extra features from its external partners. We contribute to the advancement of business model research by putting platform business model study into the competitive context of the technology industry, with findings on how platforms are used in the digital era to innovate the core business model.

  • Revision to the Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Minor In
    CAA 1 of 51 February 19, 2014 Vice Provost W. Randy Smith Council on Academic Affairs Office of Academic Affairs 203 Bricker Hall 190 North Oval Mall Columbus, OH 43210 Dear Randy Smith, The Fisher College of Business and its collegiate partners in the College of Engineering and Department of Design are proposing revisions to the Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Minor in Entrepreneurship. The objectives of the revision are: (1) to provide students with an improved and more compelling learning experience; (2) to engage students from a wider number of colleges; (3) to significantly improve the minor completion rate, and (4) to incorporate the latest theories, tools and applied learning experiences from both entrepreneurship and innovation into the curriculum. Since it’s inception in 2006, this partnership between the colleges of Business, Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and Human Ecology, has educated 2,028 students. With an annual enrollment of less than 300 students per year and completion rate of less than 17%, the current entrepreneurship minor’s potential is far from maximized, moreover, it is not keeping pace with other leading programs in either quality of content, or size of enrollment. Given the level of interest from students and corporations alike in entrepreneurial and innovation-based training and careers, it is incumbent upon us to ensure that the Entrepreneurship Minor is the best is can be. In spring of 2013 Dean Christine Poon commissioned a study from Keenan & Associates to assess and analyze the Entrepreneurship minor. Tim Keenan is a renowned business leader, successful entrepreneur and supportive alumni of The Ohio State University.

  • The New Operational Dynamics of Business Ecosystems: Implications for Policy, Operations and Technology Strategy
    03-030 The New Operational Dynamics of Business Ecosystems: Implications for Policy, Operations and Technology Strategy Marco Iansiti Roy Levien Copyright © Marco Iansiti, and Roy Levien. Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. The New Operational Dynamics of Business Ecosystems: Implications for Policy, Operations and Technology Strategy Marco Iansiti Harvard Business School Roy Levien NERA 8/30/2002 Introduction Many industries today behave like a massively interconnected network of organizations, technologies, consumers and products. Perhaps the most dramatic and widely known example is the computing industry. In contrast with the vertically integrated environment of the 1960s and 1970s, today’s industry is divided into a large number of segments producing specialized products, technologies and services. The degree of interaction between firms in the industry is truly astounding, with hundreds of organizations frequently involved in the design, production, distribution, or implementation of even a single product. And because of this increasingly distributed industry structure, the focus of competition is shifting away from the management of internal resources, to the management and influence of assets that are outside the direct ownership and control of the firm. This shift has very significant implications for both academics and practitioners and requires an evolution in our approach to industrial organization, technology management and operations strategy, since these theories were primarily developed and tested in traditional environments. The implications for managers are important. In networked industrial environments like the computer industry, the performance of any organization is driven in large part by the characteristics and structure of the network, which influence the combined behavior of its many partners, competitors and customers.

  • Microsoft Heads from the Desktop to the Clouds
    CW+ a whitepaper from ComputerWeekly Microsoft heads from the desktop to the clouds By Arif Mohamed The name Microsoft can induce strong reactions in technology users, fans and critics alike. But the fact remains that the company founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in 1975 has grown to become one of the most successful software businesses in the history of comput- ing, with an enviable global installed base of users. Microsoft commanded impressive annual revenues of $62,484bn in fiscal 2010, with an operating income of $24,098bn (£39,703bn). This allowed it to continue to lead the industry in ploughing high levels of cash into research and development. During 2010, 2009 and 2008, Microsoft’s R&D investment was $8.7bn, $9bn, and $8.2bn respectively, accounting for between 14% and 15% of revenue a year. Driving the R&D spend is a culture that encourages innovation and continually brings new technologies to market. These are consumed by three core groups of constituents: enterprises, SMEs and consumers. Microsoft’s core products include the Windows family of operating systems for desktop PCs, servers, mobile phones and handheld devices. Its enterprise and SME products include the SQL Server database, Exchange Server and Dynamics range of business applications. It also produces developer tools such as Visual Studio and Silverlight, for streaming media content to the web. The consumer technology line includes the Xbox 360 games console and a host of video games. Meanwhile, the company works hard to serve its massive partner network, often referred to as the Microsoft ecosystem. These partners - systems integrators (SIs), value added resellers (VARs), independent software vendors (ISVs) and web service providers - rely on Microsoft to innovate constantly.
