Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is proposed as a standard framework for the provision and consumption of applications and services in proximity to the end-users of network operators. Proximity has been identified as one of the enablers of the forthcoming 5G, where extreme low latency and large bandwidth will be necessary for some services. However, the need of proximity imposes to network operators the necessity of huge investments in order to distribute computing capabilities towards the access. A less investment intensive approach would consist on sharing infrastructures by integrating MEC environments from different operators or providers. This could open the door to new business models on the one hand, as well as to avoid restrictions in terms of space, energy of regulation, on the other. This paper overviews different integration options by analyzing the MEC framework defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and identifying different architectural alternatives as well as the business and technical aspects that need to be taken into consideration for realizing such integration.

AbstractThe German private health insurers (PKV) face different obstacles for a further successful development. On the one hand the PKV system lacks from adequate incentive structures to overcome forms of moral hazard and supplier-induced demand which becomes more relevant with respect to demographic- related care. On the other hand PKV must develop new business models for a demand-driven health care market. The latter challenge also threats the statutory health care insurers but their market powers as well as some governance reforms in the past have strengthened GKV-insurers in order to get more efficient. At least, PKV has to adapt its own business strategy to be prepared for the main topic of future health care: implementation of innovation within a continuous demographic change.

Innovation promises dynamism and technical progress, new products and new markets. However, it also entails new conflicts and challenges for the law: on the one hand, the law should promote and protect innovation. Constant change gives rise to the law’s responsibility to continuously develop itself further in order to create an innovation-friendly climate and to promote future technologies. On the other hand, technical innovations and new business models can also pose risks to interests that are worthy of protection. Here, too, the law must react if it is to drive innovation sustainably. This volume documents the manifold presentations at the 4th conference GRUR Junge Wissenschaft – Kolloquium zum Gewerblichen Rechtsschutz, Urheber- und Medienrecht (GRUR Young Science—Colloquium on Intellectual Property, Copyright and Media Law), where young academics addressed issues relating to the conference topic of ‘Law as an Infrastructure for Innovation’ from a variety of perspectives.

AbstractThis paper explores how publishers might mitigate a fall in revenues caused by the rise in ebook sales and the associated decline in book prices. By ending their historical reliance on selling single formats to undifferentiated classes of consumer (the 'one-size-fits-all' model), and instead producing formats tailored to specific types of customer, at different price points, might publishers maintain revenues? Lessons drawn from the experiences of the music industry suggest that live events such as literary festivals and author tours might have a key part to play in new business models; they might also offer a cost-effective means of generating enhanced content to add value to premium products.

Dissemination of new digital technologies is linked with the adoption of new solutions that give shape to relationships between those who offer goods and services in the market and their consumers. In past decades, not all new projects have been commercialised successfully, which explains why one needs to examine the reasons behind a success or failure in putting in place new business models involving elements of digital technologies. This paper discusses a comparative analysis of two cases. Rapid growth of the Californian start-up Airbnb, an operator of a virtual platform in the flat-sharing business that, on the one hand, helps people rent out their properties and, on the other hand, helps travellers find short-term lodging is an example of global success. The non-implementation of the Energy Citizen project demonstrates that, despite a number of advantages, the prosumer model in generating and consuming energy from renewable energy sources so far has fallen short of success. Comparative analysis has helped us to conclude that to be commercially successful in the digital economy one needs a virtual platform operator capable of finding a business model attractive to all operators in a selected market segment. Ensuring benefits to consumers as well as to operators whooffer their goods or services in the market is the pre-condition.

This chapter considers the role played by radio in popularizing and defining country music. Radio as a format pursued a commercially driven mediation of identity that worked against applying an artistically driven musical genre definition. In particular, these debates revolved around gendered presentation and women as listeners and performers. From the 1920s through World War II, radio’s prominence in country turned on live radio shows as the media introduction of southern whites. A second era, from the end of the war to mid-1970s, saw a shift to disc jockeys and records: personality radio. Format radio country, a tighter programming approach, solidified from the mid-1970s to the mega mergers of the late 1990s. Most recently, in an era of Internet access and new business models for music, country has confronted the less sympathetic position of networked radio.

ABSTRACT Firms are often criticized for their reluctance to embrace sustainability in their business strategies. Frugal innovation is a recent concept that represents a new way for firms to serve underserved customers in developing countries while also promoting sustainability. Based on three cases of frugal innovation at the grassroots level in India, this article demonstrates how frugal innovation presents a promising way to tackle some of today's pressing societal problems with new business models. We use a range of parameters for economic, social, and environmental sustainability to strengthen the case for frugal innovation. This article attempts to inspire scholars to consider frugal innovation further in their future research endeavors and encourage firms to integrate it into their existing business models.
