Service-dominant logic (SDL) has become an important thinking, in which service fuels growth of the firm. However, existing evidence offers little explanation of how service emerges as dominant logic. This paper investigates how a firm evolves to become an SDL enterprise. Drawing on theoretical notions of SDL and actor engagement, a case study of Homekoo is performed. The findings show that “service mindset” is the key that drives a firm to embrace SDL, and that technology can act as a “boundary spanner” to coordinate value co-creation practices across different levels, which enhances existing knowledge of actor-to-actor (A2A) interaction.
We have successfully fabricated the micro-array electrode chip with different gaps by MEMS technology and generated the moving electric fields to drive cells migration by employing AC signals. Our strategy is to simulate the ramp waveform signal in the chip with various gaps (10 m, 20 m, and 30 m) to find the optimal moving electric field by the ANSYS software. The electrode gap of 10 m could generate the better moving electric field effect on cell migration than that of other gap sizes. In experiments, when fixing the electric field intensity at 0.6 V/mm in 100 kHz, the migration velocity of the cells was 21.25 m/hr in 10 m micro-assay electrode chip. Under the driving frequency influence, the cell migration was more obvious in excess of 50 kHz. This method for cell migration could be applied to cell manipulation of bio-applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
