Given the recent predominant role of technology and the extensive use of smartphones in today’s society, the mobile device has become a major part of consumers’ daily lives. As a result, the lines between humans and technology have become blurred, where the effectiveness of interpersonal interactions at the service encounter in retail stores has been questioned. The researchers thus identified a k

Problembeskrivning:Revenue Management handlar om att sälja rätt produkt, till rätt person, vid rätt tid och till rätt pris, som ett sätt att optimera intäkterna och är en vanlig styrfilosofi inom till exempel hotellbranschen. Service Management är en styrfilosofi där olika interna processer understödjer ett tjänsteföretags arbete med att ge god service tillsammans med tjänsterna som säljs. Problem

Many forms of small-size radars suffer from minor clock oscillations due to crystalline impurities in their internal clocks, causing time-varying clock offsets between the transmitter and the receivers. This offset causes a bias and an increased variance in the positioning of close-range targets, limiting the achievable accuracy well beyond the expected estimation limitations. This performance is

This paper develops an adaptive grid two-dimensional (2-D) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation technique employing an integrated dictionary framework. In contrast to using a traditional grid over distinct angles, combined angle information atoms are adopted to construct the dictionary, using a SPICE-based noise power estimate to select the active regions. To compensate for off-grid bias effects,

Hanteringen av stallgödsel i jordbruket orsakar en stor del av utsläppen av ammoniak i Sverige. För att uppnå Sveriges mål om att minska utsläppen av ammoniak behöver jordbrukare utföra åtgärder som minskar utsläppen av ammoniak. Samtidigt är det viktigt att ta hänsyn till hur åtgärder som minskar ammoniakutsläppen också kan bidra till att minska utsläpp av växthusgaserna metan och lustgas. Här di

BACKGROUND: Tumor development requires angiogenesis, and antiangiogenesis has been introduced in the treatment of cancer patients; however, how the cardiovascular phenotype correlates with cancer risk remains ill-defined. Here, we hypothesized that vasoactive peptides previously implicated in angiogenesis regulation predict long-term cancer risk.METHODS: We measured midregional proatrial natriuret

The research area of Digitalization and Privacy, as defined and delimited within the context of this knowledge review, (mainly through the selection of search strings), is in a phase of development. The present study has been delimited to articles in English that have been published in scientific peer-reviewed journals. During the past ten years, the number of scientific articles per year has incr

A cross-national study, 49 samples in 38 nations, N=4,344, investigates whether national peace and conflict reflect ambivalent warmth-competence stereotypes: High-conflict societies (Pakistan) may need clearcut, unambivalent group images-distinguishing friends from foes. Highly peaceful countries (Denmark) also may need less ambivalence because most groups occupy the shared national identity, with

All motile organisms need to organize their motor output to obtain functional goals. In vertebrates, natural behaviors are generally composed of a relatively large set of motor components which in turn are combined into a rich repertoire of complex actions. It is therefore an experimental challenge to investigate the organizational principles of natural behaviors. Using the relatively simple locom

Den senaste reformen av EU:s gemensamma jordbrukspolitik (CAP) sjösattes 2015 med avsikten att göra det europeiska jordbruket mer konkurrenskraftigt och mer hållbart. Syftet med den här rapporten är att analysera vilka effekter reformen kan väntas få på svenskt jordbruk på områdena konkurrenskraft och miljö, för att undersöka om målen med reformen uppfylls eller ej. Analysen bygger på simuleringar

Det pågår en intensiv debatt om hur vi bäst kan använda skogen som resurs. Att ersätta fossila bränslen med förnybara bränslen från den svenska skogen lyfts fram som ett sätt att bidra till klimatmål. Men ett ökat uttag av biomassa kräver att skogen brukas mer intensivt vilket kan vara negativt för en rad andra samhällsmål som skogen bidrar till. Vad skulle ett intensivare skogsbruk totalt sett be

An important issue in simultaneous localisation and mapping is how to match and merge individual local maps into one global map. This is addressed within the field of robotics and is crucial for multi-robot SLAM. There are a number of different ways to solve this task depending on the representation of the map. To take advantage of matching and merging methods that allow for deformations of the lo

● Syftet med denna rapport är att ge forskares analys av riksdagspartiernas klimatpolitik inför valet 2022.● Alla som har bidragit till denna rapport är klimat- eller omställningsforskare och medlemmar i Researchers’ Desk1.● Researchers’ Desk är en oberoende, ideell organisation, med över 80 ledande forskare i Sverige, som arbetar med olika aspekter av klimatförändringarna.● Alla de åtta politiska

This paper focuses on the specific problems in the labour and social security legislation as it relates to crowdworkers in the digitalizes new economy, analyzing their place in labour market, and especially in the collective agreements which are the standard means of regulating working conditions in the Nordic model. Sweden has a binary system where a performing party is as either an employee or s

This paper discusses challenges, experiences and lessons learned so far while transforming a masonry build system based mostly on manual labour into a robot automated build system. Our motivation for selection of this masonry process is to try out how robot automation could impact the architects in their design work by providing a tool to directly manipulate wall expression down to individual bric
