MASTER (MAnaging Speeds of Traffic on European Roads) aims to provide re-commendations for speed management strategies and policies and develop guidelines for the development of innovative speed management tools. This document reviews the relevant literature and various Advanced Transport Telematics (ATT) and traditional (non-ATT) methods of reducing driver speed are evaluated. It is concluded tha

Research within contingency theory recognizes and postulates the relevance of contextual factors to the design of organizations. Thus organizations are dependent on the environments in which they operate and on the technologies they utilize. Organizations therefore need to process information about their environments and technologies. Information systems, including computerized information sytems,

Popular Abstract in Swedish Östersjön är ett av världens största brackvattenhav och har stora miljömässiga problem orsakade av övergödning och varmare klimat. Det mer saltrika bottenvattnet som flödar in genom en smal förbindelse med Nordsjön skiljs från ytvattnet av en haloklin, vilket förhindrar ett utbyte av syre mellan de två vattenmassorna. Tillförsel av näring och ett varmare klimat leder tiThe Baltic Sea is one of the largest brackish water bodies in the world and is suffering extensive environmental issues caused by eutrophication and warming climate. A halocline in the water column divides more saline bottom water fed by inflows through the narrow connection with the North Sea from the surface waters and inhibiting exchange of oxygen between the two water masses. With the nutrient

Arbetsmarknadens parter etablerade sig som kraftfulla aktörer på yrkesutbildningens område i början av 1940-talet med utgångspunkt från arbetsmarknadens krav och behov av utbildad arbetskraft. Huvuddelen av utbildningen skedde i företag på arbetsmarknadens villkor och kontakterna med andra delar av utbildningssystemet var mycket begränsad. Egentligen uppfattades yrkesutbildningen vid den tiden kna

The term Anthropocene denotes a new geological epoch characterized by the unprecedented impact of human activities on the Earth’s ecosystems. While the natural sciences have advanced their understanding of the drivers and processes of global change considerably over the last two decades, the social sciences lag behind in addressing the fundamental challenge of governance and politics in the Anthro

The struggle for equality is fundamental to the reduction of poverty in Central America. Besides, one of the foremost goals of urban spatial planning, when implementing social policies, is to contribute to the reduction of poverty. This is done by producing a list of territorially-based actions and selecting those suitable for the implementation of social policies developed at national level. Howe

The secondary clarifier or settler is crucial for the whole activated sludge operation. Consequently, it is important to obtain a reliable analytical model as well as a useful numerical method, which can be used in the automatic control of the settling process. Discontinuities (shocks) appear physically, and an analytical description as well as a stable numerical algorithm must be able to handle t
