The optimal pace of product updates
- European Journal of Operational Research
, 2009
"... Some firms (such as Intel and Medtronics) use a time–pacing strategy for new product development, introducing new generations at regular intervals. If the firm adopts a fast pace (introducing frequently) then it prematurely cannibalizes its old generation and incurs high development costs, while if ..."

intuitively, we find that a faster pace is associated with a higher market growth rate and faster margin decay. Not so intuitively, we find that relatively minor differences in the new product development cost function can significantly impact the optimal pace. Regarding the Bass coefficients of innovation
Valuing employees: a success strategy for fast growth firms and fast paced individuals
- P.P. (Eds.), Frontiers of Entrepreneurship Research. Center for Entrepreneurship Research, Babson Park, MA
, 1997
"... This research considers the effect of pace on employee and firm performance. Population ecology and protection motivation theory suggest that to achieve success in a fast paced environment, companies should create an environment where employees feel they are valued. The theories emphasize that both ..."

fast pace and value are needed for higher performance. In the first study, I find that firms placing high value on employees and growing at a faster pace achieve higher stock price growth. In the second study, I find that employees working at a faster pace and who feel valued are higher performers.

Executive Speakout: Adaptive Automation in Action Faster is better: High-speed Model-Free Adaptive control
"... Adaptive control is helping create faster, more accurate control for many applications. In this article, control industry leader Dr. George Cheng describes the concepts behind Model-Free Adaptive (MFA) control and shows its benefits compared to Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) and model-based ..."

-based control. He also highlights the elements of a real-world application in piezomotor control. Since the beginning of time there has been a desire to move life along at a faster pace. In our world today, speed is indeed often the most decisive factor between winning
The pace of cultural evolution
- PLoS ONE
, 2012
"... Today, humans inhabit most of the world’s terrestrial habitats. This observation has been explained by the fact that we possess a secondary inheritance mechanism, culture, in addition to a genetic system. Because it is assumed that cultural evolution occurs faster than biological evolution, humans c ..."

interval over which they are measured, which is similar to what is known for biological rates. This correlation explains why the pace of cultural evolution appears faster when measured over recent time periods, where time intervals are often shorter. Controlling for the correlation between rates and time
THE PACE OF LIFE IN 31 COUNTRIES
"... This study compared the pace of life in large cities from 31 countries around the world. Three indicators of pace of life were observed: average walking speed in downtown locations, the speed with which postal clerks completed a simple request (work speed), and the accuracy of public clocks. Overall ..."

. Overall, pace of life was fastest in Japan and the countries of Western Europe and was slowest in economically undeveloped countries. The pace was significantly faster in colder climates, economically productive countries, and in individualistic cultures. Faster places also tended to have higher rates

Attentional pursuit is faster than attentional saccade
- Journal of Vision
"... How quickly can we shift the focus of visual attention? We compared the rates of two types of attentional shifts: attentional saccades (shifts between objects) and attentional pursuit (shifts along with a moving object). Instead of measuring the time required for a single shift, which confounds shif ..."

We find that successive attentional saccades between objects are quite slow (300-500 ms). The object-based theory of attention predicts that attention should
