Cloud computing has become one of the fastest growing segments of the IT industry. In the wake of this, cloud based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have emerged as an alternative to traditional ERPs These systems require low upfront investments and can rapidly be deployed, as they are provided over the cloud. In this study we seek to unravel cloud ERP adoption by identifying and classif

The gut immune system protects against mucosal pathogens, maintains a mutualistic relationship with the microbiota, and establishes tolerance against food antigens. This requires a balance between immune effector responses and induction of tolerance. Disturbances of this strictly regulated balance can lead to infections or the development inflammatory diseases and allergies. Production of secretor

We report metallicities for three ∼Gyr-old stars in the Milky Way nuclear star cluster (NSC) using high-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy. We derive effective temperatures from a calibration with Sc line strength, which yields results in good agreement with other methods, and metallicities from spectral fits to Fe i lines. Our derived metallicities range from −1.2 < [Fe/H] < + 0.5, a span of 1

Turbulent spray combustion in a generic kerosene-fueled single-cup combustor at typical idle and cruise conditions of an aeroengine are studied with Large Eddy Simulations (LES) using Lagrangian spray and finite-rate chemistry combustion modeling. Three reaction mechanisms of varying complexity are used to model the combustion chemistry. The choice of turbulence-chemistry interaction model is show

The present study investigated sport expertise development and maintenance throng the framework of self-determination theory (SDT). In-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten elite athletes who had represented their respective nations in major international events. Data were analyzed deductively according to the principles of SDT. Results indicated that sport expertise development

'Daniel Hjorth and Chris Steyaert set out to advance the study of entrepreneurship by refocusing the lens of discovery from economics, management and marketing to other paradigmatic stances in social sciences and humanities like anthropology and literary studies. The result is a provocative collection of chapters that inspire the reader to consider and explore new ideas and research practice that

Control of network systems with uncertain local dynamics has remained an open problem for a long time. In this paper, a distributed minimax adaptive control algorithm is proposed for such networks whose local dynamics has an uncertain parameter possibly taking finite number of values. To hedge against this uncertainty, each node in the network collects the historical data of its neighbouring nodes

Thermo Fisher Scientific manufacture automatic pipetting instruments for diagnostic tests. These tests are sensitive to abnormalities and changes in e.g. volume or density could potentially lead to less precision or other issues in the pipetting work flow. Utilizing data collected from a pressure sensor inside the pipette could be a way of automatically verifying different aspects related to the p

The aviation sector's contribution to global CO2 emissions requires the exploration of sustainable energy alternatives, with hydrogen emerging as a promising candidate. Despite their potential, hydrogen aircraft propulsion systems are not yet commercially viable, primarily due to technical challenges such as cavitation in hydrogen pumps. This study aims to analyse and optimise the design of hy

The aim of this study was to get an understanding of preschool teacher’s approach when they suspect maltreatment of a child. We wanted to know which factors affects if the preschool teachers report their concern to the social services or not and what routines preschools have for these situations. To do this we held semi structured interviews with six preschool teachers operative in both public and

Den här studien undersöker hur elever med ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) och autism upplever skolan, samt vilka pedagogiska strategier som finns för att hjälpa dessa elever. Studien kommer innehålla fakta om ADHD och autism, samt information om vilka brister och svårigheter som finns inom skolan. Även tidigare forskning som har gjorts under det senaste decenniet inom ämnet ADHD ocIn this study, we investigate how students with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and autism experience the school and what facilities, methods and strategies that exist to help these students. The study will contain facts about ADHD and autism, as well as information about the shortcomings and difficulties that exist in the school. Previous research from the last decade, in the subj

Background: Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a standard procedure for assessing long term glycemic control in individuals with diabetes mellitus as it gives the stable and reliable value of blood glucose levels for a period of 90–120 days. Point-of-Care testing is becoming more and more important due to rapid results and improved experiences for patients. In this project, eight su

Temperature dynamics for a building heated by hot-water radiators are studied in this work. The emphasis has been put on deducting an equation for calculating radiator temperatures and temperature dynamics out of given datas on the construction of the heating system.
Different models for approximation of radiators are compared and the heating effect as a nonlinear function of the temperature

Swedish fire and rescue services are in a transformation that shifts towards an increased focus on preventive actions as well as more strategic oriented activities within the organizations. To support and develop such types of activities, Geographical Information System (GIS) could be an effective tool to manage and analyze geographic data. This thesis aims to examine the prerequisites for develop

Survey response rates are declining in most developed countries, and Sweden is no exception. Declining response rates are believed to be due to recent social and tech-nological development in society. Young people are the most difficult to recruit. The increase in nonresponse is often explained by a phenomenon called “survey fatigue” – i.e. that people become overwhelmed by the number of surveys t

Uppsatsen beskriver utmattningssyndrom och arbetsplatsåtergång såsom det upplevs av individen då tidigare forskning saknar ett individperspektiv. Studiens frågeställningar handlar om hur arbetsplatsåtergång upplevs samt vilka faktorer som fungerar bra respektive mindre bra och utifrån den informationen argumenteras för hur det är möjligt att utveckla arbetsplatsåtergången för alla inblandade. StudThe aim of this research is to describe the individual’s experience of exhaustion disorder (burn-out) and return to work. Previous research have shown a lack of perspective on the individual. The research questions are about how return to work is experienced and perceived and the factors that have seemed to work well and less well. From that information a discussion about how to develop the return

This thesis aims to provide a suggestion to how a chair could be designed to have less negative impact on the environment. At many offices the turnover of furniture is big. By conducting interviews and study visits, it was indicated that chairs used in lunch areas and meeting rooms are the type of furniture that gets exchanged the most in office environments. Many of the existing chairs used for t
