“…As Rosenfeld (2017); Schonberger (2010); Gunasekaran and Sarhadi (1998) justified that employee education and training can increase tacit knowledge sharing initiative flexibility and involvement. Quality-based workers with expertise and skills can organize, guide, and regulate manufacturing processes and make better judgements (Rosenfeld, 2017;Sidin & Sham, 2015). This study indicates that managers speed up and adapt their production systems to optimize product line expansion, cost efficiency, and market response (Gold et al, 2017;Ferdows et al, 2016).…”

The present research was an exploratory investigation aimed at examining the impact of tacit and explicit knowledge sharing on the competitive advantage of manufacturing firms operating in Malaysia. The findings revealed that the study supports positive relationships between tacit and explicit knowledge sharing and competitive advantage (i.e., cost, quality, delivery, and flexibility), which is consistent with earlier research. The present study investigated the relationships between tacit and explicit knowledge sharing and competitive advantage, as these constructs have been identified as one of the most extensively researched topics since the inception of organizational theory. However, this study's findings indicate that there is no significant relationship between tacit knowledge sharing and the variables of quality and flexibility that determine competitive advantage. This study employed a quantitative methodology utilizing a self-administered questionnaire. The study aims to provide insights into the significance of tacit and explicit knowledge as the primary elements of knowledge sharing, and a crucial prerequisite for enhancing a manufacturing firm's competitive advantage. Using Partial Least Squares structural equation modelling, 198 manufacturing company samples were collected and analyzed. As a result, the current study has the potential to correctly describe the performance of Malaysian manufacturing firms and it is thought to give a credible depiction of their current situation.

“…Innovation can be classified in very different manners depending on the context and the degree of novelty 10 , 11 , 12 ; allocation to a given class, as in any classification exercise, could sometimes include a subjective component. Here, we will adopt a triadic categorization scheme, considering radical , semi‐radical, and incremental innovation.…”

Antiseizure medication discovery: Recent and future paradigm shifts

Epilepsia Open

Despite the ever-increasing number of available options for the treatment of epilepsies and the remarkable advances on the understanding of their pathophysiology, the proportion of refractory patients has remained approximately unmodified during the last 100 years. How efficient are we translating positive outcomes from basic research to clinical trials and/or the clinical scenario? It is possible that fresh thinking and exploration of new paradigms are required to arrive at truly novel therapeutic solutions, as seemingly proven by recently approved first-in-class antiseizure medications and drug candidates undergoing late clinical trials. Here, the author discusses some approximations in line with the network pharmacology philosophy, which may result in highly innovative (and, hopefully, safer and/or more efficacious) medications for the control of seizures, as embodied with some recent examples in the field, namely tailored multi-target agents and low-affinity ligands.

“…From a global perspective, Malaysia has highlighted environmental issues within the organisation. Malaysia has recognized that environmental management is important in the manufacturing industry (Sidin & Sham, 2015). This is because the Malaysian manufacturing industry concerns about environmental issues to achieve sustainable development.…”
