Design Rules: The Power of Modularity

TL;DR: This study proposes a framework for optimizing data management design and maintenance decisions that assumes that certain design characteristics of data repositories and data manufacturing processes significantly affect the utility of the data resources and the costs associated with implementing them.

TL;DR: For example, NASA and the National Science Foundation conducted three workshops during 2010 and 2011 addressing basic research needs in stem engineering as mentioned in this paper, focusing on the lens of decision making in decision making.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of key resources and how they can be aggregated into open business models is explored, focusing on whether the resources are rivalrous or non-rivalrous and whether they are excludable or not.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the more uncertain the future is, the higher the value of flexibility embedded in an asset, whether financial or real, and that a lightweight process that is well positioned to respond to change and future opportunities creates more value than a heavy duty process that tends to freeze development decisions early.
