    Amongst today turbulent business environment, innovation is considered as a main source of an organization competitive advantage. In higher education environment, especially in the private university, innovation has also received considerable concern as a major contributor in securing sustainable competitive edge in the marketplace. As a result, a number of factors have been introduced to enhance the organizational innovation capability. This research aims to examine the relationship between employees' knowledge sharing behavior, innovative work behavior and organizational innovation capability. The research surveyed a sample of 367 private university staffs in Thailand. Structural equation modeling was used to test the measurement model and path analysis was used to examine the comparative strength of direct and indirect relationships among variables. The analytical results revealed that knowledge sharing behavior showed a positive link to both innovation capability and innovative work behavior. In addition, innovative work behavior was found to be a partial mediator of the relationship between knowledge sharing behavior and innovation capability. This study provides some useful information for university administrators, and highlights management issues involving knowledge sharing behavior and understanding the influence of innovative work behavior on organizational innovation capability.

    Ever since innovation was recognised as a key contributor to securing competitive advantage in the higher education arena, many factors have been introduced to enhance innovation capability. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between total quality management (TQM) and organisational innovation capability (OIC), as well as investigate the role of knowledge-sharing behaviour (KSB) in mediating this relationship. A survey was conducted on 367 academic staff and support staff from private universities in Thailand. The analytical results suggest that TQM is positively linked to OIC and KSB, in which the KSB plays a partial mediating role between TQM and OIC. The findings should benefit university administrators to improve innovation capability in addition to implementing TQM to develop appropriate strategies for maintaining a knowledge-sharing environment, leading to the kind of tacit knowledge that can successfully raise the innovation capability of private universities.

    The objectives of the research were to study path relations between a lean healthcare system, Six Sigma practice and internal quality management of core competency of Thai private hospitals to be an ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) medical care center. The population and sample group of the study were the Hospital Accreditation (HA) officers of Thai private hospitals between December 2012 and May 2013. The sample group totaled 312 persons. The study tool included questionnaires and a path analysis was employed to analyze the data. The findings of the study determined that (1) The lean healthcare system indirectly influences, through internal quality management, a hospital's core competency to be an AEC medical care center, (2) Six Sigma practices directly influence a hospital's core competency to be an AEC medical care center, (3) Six Sigma practices indirectly influence, through internal quality management, a hospital's core competency to be an AEC medical care center, (4) Internal quality management directly influences a hospital's core competency to be an AEC medical care center.

    A preliminary study toward the design of a firmness tester suitable for mango maturity classification was conducted through an experiment consisting of two parts: (1) probe selection, followed by (2) evaluation of the selected probe in mango maturity classification using a texture analyzer. This resulted in a technique based on the firmness of the fruit measured by a compression test with a maximum force of 3N using a 5mm diameter spherical stainless steel probe. This technique demonstrated the possibility of classifying the maturity of mangoes into two different stages, i.e., 60% and 80% of full ripeness. However, it could not detect the difference between 60% and 70% of full ripeness or between 70% and 80% of full ripeness.
