... development and the complex decision-making processes of consumers, particularly in the face of product updates. To bridge this gap, this study extends a demand model based on decision field theory (DFT), focusing on a phenomenon largely unexplored in the existing literature: the update engagement spike (UES...

... used to predict demand do not capture the dynamic aspects of consumer decision making. To address this gap, we propose a dynamic demand model and demonstrate how it can be used to determine the optimal time to release product updates. The demand model is based on decision field theory (DFT), which...

... variable forecasts and their degrees of accuracies. An illustrative example is used to demonstrate impacts of exogenous variable forecasts and their accuracies on future demand prediction and expected profit calculation of a fuel cell vehicle. Demand Modeling Choice-Based Conjoint Analysis...

... and preferences is beneficial to both laptop designers and to consumers. This paper introduces an engineering model for laptop computer design and a demand model derived from a main-effects choice-based conjoint survey. Several demand model specifications are compared, including linear-in-parameters and discrete...
