Increased logistics outsourcing and importance of supply chain integration (SCI) have attracted our interest in studying how logistics service providers (LSPs) are viewed as contributors to SCI and to their clients' performance. On the basis of LSPs? roles as they emerge from SCI-performance literature and from analysis of LSP-websites on how they communicate their role(s), we discuss how this dif

Elsewhere I have argued that the notion of a normative agent-neutral reason is undermined by certain views on reasons; the existence of agent-neutral reasons can be questioned. Here I shall not repeat my doubts but rather address a way of expressing the distinction that I had not considered and which would, if correct, put an end to my worries about the soundness of this dichotomy. The idea, which

I min analys försöker jag ta reda på om kursplanen för NOR stämmer överens med principen för ”constructive alignment”. Jag har utgått från John Biggs och Catherine Tangs bok ”Teaching for Quality Learning at University” från 2007, där de redogör för vad ”constructive alignment” innebär och hur konceptet kan användas i praktiken för design av kursupplägg och undervisning. ”Constructive alignment” (

The new Department of Design Sciences was established as a result of the reorganisation of the Lund Institute of Technology, Lund University. The main ambition of this new department is to facilitate interdisciplinary scientific research and to support the development of new research areas, one of which is packaging logistics where the packaging perspective is used to evaluate and develop logistic

This paper deals with CERTECs work to use haptics to provide a new way of using computers for visually impaired people and people with physical disabilities. We have chosen to call the concept The Phantasticon. CERTEC has developed a set of programs

The problem of load mitigation in wind turbines located in wind farms is addressed. The benefits of letting turbines communicate with and account for their neighbors are explored. First, the idea of exploiting previewed wind speed measurements is examined. The problem is formulated as an H 2 model matching optimization. The influence of preview length on the performance is analyzed and simulation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vårt immunförsvar arbetar konstant med att skydda kroppen från olika föremål, t. ex. bakterier, virus, gifter och cancertumörer, som kan orsaka skada eller sjukdom. För att kunna försvara kroppen mot sådana föremål så har immunförsvaret tillgång till flera, oerhört effektiva, vapen. Det viktigt att immunförsvaret känner igen, och endast angriper, skadliga föremål, så atCD40 is a cell surface receptor of pivotal importance that is expressed on several of the cells in the immune system. It is critical for many important events, such as T cell dependent B cell activation, isotype switching, somatic mutation and generation of B cell memory. The central role of CD40 in the immune system makes it an ideal target for antibody based immunotherapy. This led us to charact

This paper looks at the problem of estimating the coefficients of a continuous-time transfer function given samples of its input and output data. We first prove that any nth-order continuous-time transfer function can be written as a fraction of the form /spl Sigma//sub k=0//sup n/b~/sub k/L/sub k/(s)//spl Sigma//sub k=0//sup n/a~/sub k/L/sub k/(s), where L/sub k/(s) denotes the continuous-time La
