Studiens syfte var att undersöka vilka faktorer påverkar organisationers val att ingå i det EU-finansierade konsortiet R-Mode Baltic, och hur väl kan dessa härledas till transaktionskostnadsteori. En kvalitativ fallstudie har tillämpats. Analys av insamlad data har skett via pattern-matching vars syfte är att söka efter empiriska mönster. Transaktionkostnadsteori är vårt teoretiska ramverk som intThe vision of the study is to find factors which impacts organisations choices to participate in the EU-funded R-mode project, and how well these can be related to the transaction cost theory. A qualitative case study have been used to organise the empirical results. Analysis of the data have been done with a pattern matching method with the intent to find recurring thoughts and actions from the o

Today it gets more and more popular for companies to implement Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) in their organizations. SAFe is an agile software development framework that intends to increase productivity and quality, and provide faster time to market. A company that works in a waterfall based development process, is now facing this implementation. The company would like to know which challenges oth

Struktur studier av vatten kanalen SoPIP2;1 från Spinach. Syfte för studier av denna jon kanal i detta masterprojekt var att studera kristaller från så kallade membranprotein aquaporin SoPIP2;1 och sedan bestämma dess molekylära struktur till en hög upplösning. Detta kan sedan utnyttjas i vidare forskning för just detta proteinet. Proteinet som studerades kommer från Spinach. Detta protein överStudies of aquaporin’s are broad study field in today’s science. In this master project the membrane protein aquaporin SoPIP2;1 has been studied. The aim of the project was to obtain protein crystals with Lipidic Cubic Phase (LCP) crystallization and study their diffraction. If the obtained resolution of the crystals were satisfying the molecular map also would be studied and that would reveal us

MIFO (Metodik för Inventering av Förorenade Områden) används för att inventera potentiellt förorenade mark- och vattenområden i Sverige. Metoden började användas på 1990-talet och utgör sedan dess en mall för inventering. En MIFO-inventering består av två faser, fas-1 och fas-2. I respektive inventeringsfas tilldelas objektet en riskklass mellan 1-4. Till följd av ett omfattande inventeringsarbeteMIFO is a methodology commonly used to facilitate inventory of potentially contaminated sites (objects) in Sweden. It was first introduced during the 1990’s and has since then served as a standardized method for risk assessment. MIFO are comprised of two evaluation phases,1 and 2. Following years of inventories, there is now an extensive amount of data stored in files which can be used as an asses

Dark matter is estimated to make up around 25% of the Universe, but it is not known what dark matter is. In particle physics, mediators of dark matter are used to model interactions of dark matter particles with known particles (Standard Model particles). These mediator particles can be produced from two quarks or gluons in high-energetic proton-proton collisions, and decay immediately back into S

Kommunerna har många roller i arbetet med att minska klimatförändringarna och bli mer energieffektiva och det finns stora möjligheter till lönsamma energieffektivitetsåtgärder. 2010-2014 kommun Hässleholm har genomfört ett energieffektiviseringsprojekt inklusive energianvändningen i ägda och leasade byggnader och fordon, maskiner, köpte transporttjänster och energianvändningen i vatten- och avloppAbstract Municipalities have many roles in the work of reducing climate change and becoming more energy efficient and there are great opportunities for profitable energy efficiency measures. 2010-2014 the municipality of Hässleholm has conducted an energy efficiency project including energy use in owned and leased buildings and vehicles, machinery, purchased transportation services, and energy us

The conventional internal combustion engines of today are starting to reach their maximum possible efficiency, however the demand for highly efficient vehicles keeps increasing. There are many ways of improving the total fuel consumption of an internal combustion engine, but one of the most promising, effective and available methods is the implementation of an Organic Rankine cycle (ORC). The scop

A plant’s rain coat Imagine yourself taking a walk on a cloudy day. Suddenly, the sky opens and the rain is pouring down making you totally soaked. Now imagine that you predicted that it would start to rain so you put on a rain coat. When the rain starts to fall, you won’t get wet since the rain drops will strike against the rain coat and get drained. In the same manner, the wax on plants is prot

Vilket membran lämpar sig bäst när det kommer till avskiljning av organiskt material från Bolmenvatten? Med vattendrag som blir brunare och brunare – hur ska våra dricksvattenverk klara av att säkra vårt vatten i framtiden? Svaret heter membranteknik! Vilket membran som passar bäst är däremot en svårare fråga att besvara och således också det som har undersökts i denna studie.In many places across the northern hemisphere, drinking water treatment plants (WTPs) need to avert the effects of deteriorating quality in surface water sources caused by increasing lev-els of natural organic matter (NOM). The two major factors responsible for this phenomenon, also called brownification, are the greenhouse effect and changes in soil acidification. Additional treatment steps needs

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att skapa ökad förståelse för hur nya image- och varumärkesbyggande aktiviteter initialt påverkar statliga arbetsgivares rekryteringsförutsättningar.

Människan har sedan urminnes tider tittat upp mot himlen och försökt lista ut vår plats i Universum. Vi har kommit långt fram sedan tiderna man kartlade stjärnors positioner för hand, till att använda superdatorer till att simulera kosmisk historia. Just nu befinner vi oss i en era där stora resurser läggs ner på att studera vårt hem, vår galax, Vintergatan, i mycket större detalj än förr. En av dI investigate to what extent spiral arms might affect axisymmetric Galactic models. As we need fully dynamical and high resolution Galactic evolutionary models to probe the structure of the dark matter halo, it is important that we use accurate mass models describing the MW structure. Before reaching to that level of effort, a great deal can be learned from fitting mass and kinematic models to dat

Issue of study: The plastic injection moulding industry has become highly competitive in terms of lead times and pricing, following an increase in low-cost manufacturing from Asia, as a part of the full supply chain. To remain competitive, mould tool manufacturers are looking to complement new tool manufacturing with local after-sales services in countries where their mould tools are being used. U

Background H&M Online has experienced rapid growth over the last years and is now present in Europe, North America and Asia. To be a successful fashion etailer, companies need to overcome typical fashion challenges such as seasonality, short product life cycles and a constantly changing customer demand. In addition, companies must learn to master the special characteristics of e-commerce such

One way for manufacturing companies to gain competitive advantage in today’s business environment is to complement the product offering with surrounding services that deliver superior value to the customer. Further, the demand for these surrounding services is influenced by market-specific customer requirements, surrounding competitive environment and local prerequisites. Therefore, there is a nee

The aim of our research has been to identify what prevents Syncron from implementing a single item emergency ordering policy in their inventory management system, GIM. Emergency ordering is defined here as the ability to use two supply sources, a normal one and a faster more expensive emergency source. We further wanted to investigate under what circumstances an emergency ordering policy could be
