Summary: This study proposes a conceptual framework to examine value creation through the evolution of business model themes. By critically assessing the literature on business models, business model themes, and their evolution, it is highlighted that business model themes are typically theorized as static. Instead, the presented framework characterizes business models and the business model themes of value creation as co-evolving within an evolving industry.

Summary: Despite the importance of service productivity, previous research in marketing has been limited in its perspective and fragmented in its findings. This study uses a meta-analysis to integrate empirical evidence on service productivity and proposes hypotheses on its determinants. The findings suggest that service quality and internal efficiency should be considered together in order to maximize profitability. This has implications for service scholars and managers, as it highlights the need to view service productivity as a profitability concept and consider both quality and efficiency.

Summary: To achieve successful strategic renewal, established companies need to implement appropriate innovation activities based on their competitive advantages. One effective method is the establishment of corporate venturing units that generate new business innovations for the parent company. However, there is limited understanding of the unique organizational characteristics needed for strategic corporate venturing. To address this gap, this study develops a conceptual organizational framework that links key concepts of strategic renewal with corporate venturing. Through a comparison with qualitative data from 29 corporate venturing units, six types of units with different roles for parent company's strategic renewal are defined. Additionally, dynamic capabilities and ambidextrous structures are identified as important factors for planned innovation logic. These findings provide a basis for an empirical model of strategic corporate venturing and offer insights for establishing dynamic capabilities and ambidexterity within interlinked organizations.

Summary: This study analyzes the characteristics of process parameters in three lean gas ethane recovery processes and establishes a prediction and multiobjective optimization model for ethane recovery and system energy consumption. A new method for comparing ethane recovery processes for lean gas is proposed, and the addition of extra coolers improves the ethane recovery. The support vector regression model based on grey wolf optimization demonstrates the highest prediction accuracy, and the multiobjective multiverse optimization algorithm shows the best optimization performance and diversity in the solutions.

Summary: The paper proposes a novel deep learning-based prediction framework, aTCN-LSTM, for accurate cooling load predictions. The framework utilizes a gate-controlled multi-head temporal convolutional network and a sparse probabilistic self-attention mechanism with a bidirectional long short-term memory network to capture both temporal and long-term dependencies in the cooling load sequences. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, which can serve as an effective guide for HVAC chiller scheduling and demand management initiatives.
