This report presents the result of an initial step towards an interdisciplinary research partnership between the involved departments at Aleppo and Lund University. The initiator and main author, Dr. Ayman Hamadeh, visited Division of Packaging Logistics during the summer 2008. During that time the authors identified corrugator sequencing as a common research field and embarked on a joint explorat
Each and every thought, word, feeling or action of a person recele a surplus of meaning, opening on all the possible worlds accessible for him/her. A vision on those possible worlds and possibilities of action, should be of the highest interest for psychological research. Research in cross/cultural/intercultural psychology confronts the researcher to language, in conversations, narratives, writing
This book is the outcome of a three-year project coordinated by a group of Swedish researchers and with collaborating scholars from Africa and Asia. It provides a comparative study between Asian agricultural development during the Green Revolution in food production and the current problematic agricultural situation in sub-Saharan Africa. Case studies of eight African and eight Asian countries (fo
Planning and implementing an open-loop, business-wide national pool system for transport packaging (trays and pallets) is a complex process. This research project is focusing on the driving forces in the development and decision processes. During 1992-1999, a group of logistics specialists within the Swedish food supply chains took part in a development process, which included much learning and ne
The chapter explores what retirement means to women about to, or having recently retired in the current economic climate. It examines the choices perceived available to pre-retirement and retired people and their attitudes towards retirement. From our findings we are able to deduce that not everyone approaches retirement in the same way. Davies and Jenkins (2013) categorize individual-level experi
The purpose of this thesis is to characterize the health status of the population in early Lund. This is pursued by an osteological analysis of 3.305 individuals fron three time periods: c. 990-1100, c. 1100-1300 and c. 1300-1536. The individuals derives from cemeteries connected to four neighbouring churches, where one is the sucessor of the other (Trinitatis). One cemetery (Kattesund) is by and
A novel technique, involving U-model based IMC (Internal Model Control), is proposed for the adaptive control of nonlinear dynamic plants. The proposed scheme combines the robustness of the IMC and the ability of Neural Networks to identify arbitrary nonlinear functions, with the control-oriented nature of the U-model to achieve adaptive tracking of stable nonlinear plants. The proposed structure

Achieving rapid, intuitive, and error-free robot setup and instruction is a challenge. We present our work towards an assistive infrastructure for robot setup and instruction that attempts to address it. In this paper, we describe the ongoing development of a system that automatically generates multimodal dialogue interaction from product and process ontologies. The prototype currently generates t
