Authors: Chugunova N. A. , Yasko B. A. , Pokul L. V. 
Published: January 2020

The originality of the profile of psychological defenses (c, LSY) of women suffering from borderline and benign ovarian tumors is considered. The concepts of constructive LSY profile and non‑constructive LSY profile are introduced. It is shown that the most pronounced tendency to constructive ego‑defenses is among patients with benign ovarian tumors, which is directly related to the process of restoration of their reproductive potential. In patients representing groups of borderline ovarian tumors, the complexity of the course of the disease, the insufficient success of reproduction is accompanied by subjectively reduced self‑esteem, frustration, which is reflected in the predominance of the non‑constructive profile of LSY.Conclusion. The psychological portrait of patients with benign ovarian tumors, characterized by various types of protective behavior, it is advisable to consider when planning the management of this patient population.

Dlaczego nie lubię reklam w kinie
Authors: Giżycki Marcin 
Published: January 2020

Autor zastanawia się, jaki cel ma wyświetlanie w kinach przed seansami, często przez pół godziny, reklam, skoro badania wykazują, że większość z widzów albo nic z nich nie pamięta, albo je odpuszcza. Zdaniem badaczy i krytyków reklamy są jednym z powodów systematycznego bywania widzów w kinie. Biorąc pod uwagę ceny reklamowania się w kinie, na większości seansów (z wyjątkiem wielkich hitów) można by w ogóle nie pobierać opłat, bo zysk ze sprzedaży biletów stanowi tylko mały procent dochodów kin z reklam. W tym systemie film staje się tylko narzędziem reklamodawców. Sztuka się nie liczy. Zauważyli to już dawno artyści, np. Richard Serra czy Wim Wenders.
A Simple Proof for a Forbidden Subposet Problem
Authors: Martin Ryan R. , Methuku Abhishek , Uzzell Andrew , Walker Shanise 
Published: January 2020

The poset $Y_{k, 2}$ consists of $k+2$ distinct elements $x_1$, $x_2$, \dots, $x_{k}$, $y_1$, $y_2$, such that $x_1 \le x_2 \le \cdots \le x_{k} \le y_1$, $y_2$. The poset $Y'_{k, 2}$ is the dual poset of $Y_{k, 2}$. The sum of the $k$ largest binomial coefficients of order $n$ is denoted by $\Sigma(n,k)$. Let $\mathrm{La}^{\sharp}(n,\{Y_{k, 2}, Y'_{k, 2}\})$ be the size of the largest family $\mathcal{F} \subset 2^{[n]}$ that contains neither $Y_{k,2}$ nor $Y'_{k,2}$ as an induced subposet. Methuku and Tompkins proved that $\mathrm{La}^{\sharp}(n, \{Y_{2,2}, Y'_{2,2}\}) = \Sigma(n,2)$ for $n \ge 3$ and conjectured the generalization that if $k \ge 2$ is an integer and $n \ge k+1$, then $\mathrm{La}^{\sharp}(n, \{Y_{k,2}, Y'_{k,2}\}) = \Sigma(n,k)$. On the other hand, it is known that $\mathrm{La}^{\sharp}(n, Y_{k,2})$ and $\mathrm{La}^{\sharp}(n, Y'_{k,2})$ are both strictly greater than $\Sigma(n,k)$. In this paper, we introduce a simple approach, motivated by discharging, to prove this conjecture.
MAT-free Reflection Arrangements
Authors: Cuntz Michael , Mücksch Paul 
Published: January 2020

We introduce the class of MAT-free hyperplane arrangements which is based on the Multiple Addition Theorem by Abe, Barakat, Cuntz, Hoge, and Terao. We also investigate the closely related class of MAT2-free arrangements based on a recent generalization of the Multiple Addition Theorem by Abe and Terao. We give classifications of the irreducible complex reflection arrangements which are MAT-free respectively MAT2-free. Furthermore, we ask some questions concerning relations to other classes of free arrangements.
Competitive Intelligence and Knowledge Creation - Outward insights from an empirical survey
Authors: Oubrich Mourad 
Published: January 2020

The 21st century is characterized by many transformations which have had an impact on the growth of companies, such as aggressive competition, layoff plans, terrorist attacks and rising oil prices. It is of importance for a company to develop a protection against future impediments. This can be done by creating knowledge through a competitive intelligence process, which is the main focus of this article. With different theories about knowledge creation and competitive intelligence at hand, a qualitative empirical study was developed. The article presents how a company’s strategic intent, mission and strategic objectives can act as a guide for the competitive intelligence process, in order to gain the information necessary to find opportunities and eliminate threats.

The third issue of JISIB marks the journal’s first anniversary. Again we are delighted to welcome contributions by academics from all over the world, from so many different backgrounds. We also delighted to have contributions from a large number of female authors. This together shows, we believe, that the field of intelligence studies has a truly global reach.Most contributions continue to come from best papers from a number of conferences related to Intelligence Studies. For the articles in this issue we would like to thank in particular our American Editor, Prof. G. Scott Erickson. Four out of six articles this time come from ECKM 2012, which was held 6-7 September in Cartagena, Spain. Track co-chairs for the Mini Track on Competitive Intelligence and KM was G. Scott Erickson, Ithaca College, Ithaca, NY and Helen N. Rothberg, Marist College, Poughkeepsie, New York.The article by Brigitte Gay shows how graphs can be used to illustrate and understand relations between organizations and companies. It illustrates well the degree to which the field of Competitive Intelligence relies heavily today on the development of new software. The article by Scott Ericson and Helen Rothberg clarifies much around the importance of knowledge assets and the study of Knowledge Management with that of Competitive Intelligence. Few have done more to understand this area than these two authors. Their findings have also been published in a new book this year, “Intelligence in action” (Palgrave Macmillan). The contribution by Jihene Chebbi Ghannay and Zeineb Ben Ammar Mamlouk Zeineb is a literature review that shows the same interdependence between CI and KM. The article by Olivier Mamavi shows what you can do with graphs to identify and understand networks for problems containing big data, in this case companies who have obtained French procurement contracts. The article by Gabriela López, Steve Eldridge, Salomón Montejano and Patricia Silva shows how to improve supply chain knowledge by a continuous evaluation and contextualization of a company’s own practices. The last article by Mattias Nyblom, Jenny Behrami, Tung Nikkilä and Klaus Solberg Søilen is an investigation into what kind of Business Intelligence software is used by SMEs, why, and how companies evaluate their systems. As such its aim is to narrow a gap between theory and practice.On behalf of the Editorial Board,Sincerely Yours,Dr. Klaus Solberg Søilen

JISIB has entered into an electronic licensing relationship with EBSCO Publishing. It has also been selected to appear in EBSCO’s Business Source Complete database, which according to the company publishes “Superior Academic Journals (…) with premium content of peer-reviewed, business related journals. “ JISIB now also fulfills the official criteria of Thomson Reuters to be cited in their ISI Web of Knowledge database. As such it has applied to be included in the database. However, by experience with other journals, we know this process can still take considerable time. After having had the journal’s first annual meeting for editors in December we would like to thank the old board members who are leaving and welcome the new ones. Most contributions continue to come from best papers from a number of conferences related to Intelligence Studies. Two out of five articles come from ECKM 2012, which was held 6-7 September in Cartagena, Spain. Track co-chairs for the Mini Track on Competitive Intelligence and KM was G. Scott Erickson, Ithaca College, Ithaca, NY and Helen N. Rothberg, Marist College, Poughkeepsie, New York. Two other articles are revised versions of papers presented at ECIS, but not previously published in journals. The article by Helen N. Rothberg and G. Scott Ericksonis about how to benchmark competitive intelligence activities. The paper identifies and measures different circumstances in which knowledge development and knowledge protection can have greater or lesser importance for a company. The authors believe that the results will start to move scholarly work in the field into the new areas of macro studies and strategic choice. The article by Stéphan Goria is on board wargames for businesses. It also gives a broad background of this field of study with the history of wargames and numerous historical examples. Moreover Goria shows the benefits with wargames by creating a new game and testing it for a market situation which found place in France between Nintendo and Sony. The article by Yasmina Amara, Klaus Solberg Søilen and Dirk Vriens proposes a way to evaluate business intelligence software by introducing a new model, the SSAV model. The article by Marisela Rodriguez Salvador and Luis Francisco Salinas Casanova applies a Competitive Intelligence model to analyze Thermoplastics Elastomers (TE), a class of polymers, for a company in Mexico. The model shows numerous novel findings with important implications for the company. Finally, the article by Klaus Solberg Søilen and Anders Hasslinger show how vendors of Business Intelligence software try to differentiate themselves in this market.

We are pleased to offer another series of research articles within the area of intelligence studies in business. The articles represent as always a number of different approaches and problems. The article by Fatti and du Toit on competitive intelligence in the South African pharmaceutical industry confirms the idea that CI by now is a well-established field of interest in companies. The article goes on to propose a series of suggestions for how to improve the CI function for these companies. The article by Jenster and Solberg Søilen is a quantitative paper on the correlation between strategic planning and company performance for Chinese companies. The research confirms that the CI function is more important for company performance than the other variables and functions that were measured. The article by Momeni and Mehrafzoon identifies a number of key success factors for the CI function in the power plant industry in Iran. Seven factors are identified in the study. The article by Solberg Søilen is an overview of articles published in the Journal of Competitive Intelligence and Management and Competitive. The article shows where articles are from, what topics are most popular, what background authors have and to what extent they define future research. The article by Hoppe is about the methodological direction of intelligence studies, and is placed in the opinion section. By using Burk’s pentad the author brings a series of new perspectives to intelligence studies in general. We hope you will enjoy these quite different contributions.

The sixth issue of JISIB marks the journal’s second anniversary. Again we are delighted to welcome contributions by academics from so many different countries, with so many different backgrounds. The academic contributions of our female authors continue to show also in this issue. If this issue should have one common theme it would be related to Brazil. It is not a special issue on Brazil, but we saw the possibility to include three articles which relates to the experience of competitive intelligence in this country. However, the first article by Sheila Wright, Christophe Bisson, and Alistair Duffy entitled “Competitive Intelligence and Information Technology Adoption of SMEs in Turkey: Diagnosing Current Performance and Identifying Barriers“ is on another topic and deals with SMEs need to improve intelligence-based output to decision-makers. Based on empirical findings the aim has been to identify and classify CI behaviour and attitudes of SMEs in Turkey.The second article by A.S.A. du Toit is entitled “Comparative Study of Competitive Intelligence Practices between Two Retail Banks in Brazil and South Africa” , where it is concluded that respondents in the bank in Brazil cope better with changes in the external environment.The next article by Zhanna Abzaltynova and Janice Williams entitled “Developments in Business Intelligence Software” is an evaluation of BI vendors and software with extensive rankings.The article by Francisco Carlos Paletta entitled “Brazil - Evolutions in CI and some aspects of a current scenario”, is a summary of research done on the introduction of competitive intelligence in Brazil.

The journal continues to draw mainly on articles presented at academic conferences on topics related to competitive intelligence. In 2013 SCIP organized a first conference in South Africa, under the leadership of ASA du Toit, the journal’s editor for Africa.The first article by Agostino et al. entitled “Cloud solution in Business Intelligence for SMEs –vendor and customer perspectives“ identifies key success factor for SMEs of cloud based Business Intelligence products. Most important KSFs identified in this study were the level of software functionalities, the ubiquitous access to data, responsive answers to customer support requests, handling large amounts of data and implementation cost. The study also shows that SMEs prefer industry tailored software, monthly or quarterly billings, and contact by email or phone for service.The second article by Helen N. Rothberg and G. Scott Erickson entitled “Intelligence in the Oil Patch: Knowledge Management and Competitive Intelligence Insights” argue with extensive empirical data and examples from oil-based industries that practitioners are one step ahead of academia in the sense that many organizations have a connection between their knowledge management and competitive intelligence functions. While the natural inclination of most working in the fields of KM and CI is that more is always better, both theory and practice suggest that sometimes a more measured approach may be better, the authors conclude. The third article by Esteves and Curto entitled “A Risk and Benefits Behavioral Model to Assess Intentions to Adopt Big Data” develops a model that predicts the intention to adopt Big Data technologies. The article by Salvador and Casanoa entitled “Applying Competitive Intelligence: The Case of Thermoplastics Elastomers” provides a practical case of the Competitive Intelligence Methodology applied to the Thermoplastics Elastomers Industry, specifically within the Styrenic Block Copolymers category. The authors identify a solution for a Mexican Company to support their decision-making process. The last article by Kabir and Carayannis entitled “Big Data, Tacit Knowledge and Organizational Competitiveness” show how big data is a source of firm’s competitive advantage.As always we would first of all like to thank the authors for their contributions to this issue of JISIB.
Integration of Business Intelligence and Knowledge Management – A literature review
Authors: Rostami Najibeh Abbasi 
Published: January 2020

In today’s world data are so numerous that technology is needed to cope with this knowledge. Business Intelligence (BI) is a process that involves sorting all the collected information and select those that are relevant. BI provides critical insights that help organizations make right decisions. Knowledge management (KM) is a key approach to solving current problems. KM can be defined as a systematic process of finding, selecting, organizing, distilling and presenting information in a way that improves an employee's comprehension in a specific area of interest. BI and KM play an important role in improving the qualitative and quantitative value of information available for decision making. KM and BI can also benefit from each other. It seems that integration of BI and KM can help organizations achieve wider benefits. Integration of BI and KM will not only help to promote and enhance knowledge for better decision making, but also improve an organization’s performance. Therefore it is imperative for organizations to have both BI and KM as an integrated system to get full value from both. This paper is a literature review which shows the importance of BI and KM Integration through a series of models.
Patents used by NPE as an Open Information System in Web 2.0 – Two mini case studies
Authors: Baaziz Abdelkader , Quoniam Luc 
Published: January 2020

The Information Systems around patents are complex, their study coupled with a creative vision of “out of the box”, overcomes the strict basic functions of the patent. We have, on several occasions, guiding research around the patent solely-based on information, since the writing of new patents; invalidation of existing patents, the creation of value-added information and their links to other Information Systems. The traditional R&D based on heavy investments is one type of technology transfer. But, patent information is also, another powerful tool of technology transfer, innovation and creativity. Indeed, conduct research on the patent, from an academic viewpoint, although not always focusing only on financial revenue, can be considered as a form of “Non Practicing Entities” (NPE) activity, called rightly or wrongly “Patent Trolls”. We'll see why the term “patent troll” for this activity is controversial and inappropriate. The research we will describe in this paper falls within this context. We show two case studies of efficient use of patent information in Emerging countries, the first concern the pharmaceutical industry in Brazil and the second, the oil industry in Algeria.
