Venue: Room 1002, Library & Information Center Building C, Zijingang CampusSpeaker: Dr. Kejia Hu is an Assistant Professor at Owen Graduate School of Management from Vanderbilt University. Her research interests are empirical research in service management, supply chain management and sustainability. She obtains her Ph.D. from Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. She has published her research in peer-reviewed journals such as Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, Energy Policy and others.Abstract:We present an approach to forecast customer orders of ready-to-launch new products that are similar to past products. The approach fits product life cycle (PLC) curves to historical customer order data, clusters the curves of similar products, and uses the representative curve of the new product's cluster to generate its forecast. We propose three families of curves to fit the PLC: Bass diffusion curves, polynomial curves and simple piecewise-linear curves (triangles and trapezoids). Using a large data set of customer orders for 4,037,826 units of 170 Dell computer products sold over three and a half years, we compare goodness-of-fit and complexity for these families of curves. The fitted PLC curves of similar products are clustered either by known product characteristics or by data-driven clustering. Our key empirical finding is that, for our large data set, data-driven clustering of simple triangles and trapezoids, which are simple-to-estimate and explain, performs best for forecasting.

Venue: Room 1102, Library & Information Center Building C, Zijingang CampusSpeaker:Lori Qingyuan Yue, Marshall Dean’s Associate Professor in Business Administration and Associate Professor of Management and Organization at USC-Marshall School of Business.Abstract:The surpassing of a competing platform over the focal platform in installed bases creates uncertainty surrounding the emergence of a dominant platform. This in turn triggers complementors’ anxiety and thus increases their migration to the competing platform. However, as platform competition evolves and demonstrates that multiple platforms with strategic differentiation (e.g., quality- versus quantity-driven) could coexist, the migration tendency recedes. Consistent with our argument, we find that the increasing gap between installed bases of Android and iOS has an inverted-U effect on iOS developers’ likelihood of moving to Android, and that low performers and free-app developers have been the primary contributors to the inverted-U shaped pattern. App developers that migrate to Android at a highly uncertain time also experience a high rate of product failure.

Venue: Qiushi Hall, Zijingang CampusSpeaker: Whitfield Diffi, one of the pioneers of public-key cryptography along with Martin Hellman and Ralph Merkle. Diffie and Hellman's 1976 paper New Directions in Cryptography introduced a radically new method of distributing cryptographickeys, that helped solve key distribution—a fundamental problem in cryptography. Their technique became known as Diffie–Hellman key exchange. The article stimulated the almost immediate public development of a new class of encryption algorithms, the asymmetric key algorithms.
