This paper is a description of a real world case which focuses on a method to define the major gaps between functional requirements and existing support in a traditional ERP system. To identify and define the major gaps the method is using short interviews, existing documentation and graphic process diagrams. The report covers the process Customer Contact – Order Acknowledgement for a global chemi

Är kunderna nöjda? Låt röstteknologin berätta Snart kan kundservicecenter plocka ut statistik över hur glada, arga, ledsna eller kanske förvånade deras kunder har varit den senaste veckan, dagen eller timmen. Vi har byggt en sentimentmodell som automatiskt kan klassificera känslorna hos en talare utifrån både tonläge och sammanhang. Redan idag analyseras stora mängder samtal i kundservice för atSpeech Emotion Recognition (SER) opens up the possibility to collect opinions from people in channels that have not be conceivable before, such as youtube videos, podcasts or phone calls. SER is becoming more advanced, and the SER models that have been published recently are reaching accuracy-results well beyond state of the arts. However, SER is not a simple task and it is most common that the mo

Popular Abstract in Swedish I litteraturen kring marknadsföring av tjänster har det i flera sammanhang diskuterats hur tjänster baserade på kombinationer av kundmedverkan och teknologi kan erbjudas till kunden. Exempel som behandlats är bankers uttagsautomater, självbetjäning på bensinstationer och automatiska banktjänster över telefon. Innan man kan presentera sådana rekommendationer behövs det g

In the present study, two types of micro-pin–fin configurations were fabricated on silicon surfaces by a dry etching method, i.e., staggered pin fins (#1) and aligned pin fins with empty areas (#2). The micro-pin–fin surfaces were then further modified by depositing FeMn oxide nanoparticles (∼35 nm) electrostatically for 8 h and 16 h, respectively, namely #1-8h, #1-16h, #2-8h and #2-16h. Subcooled

Payment for water ecosystem services has been gaining attention in Latin America because of the direct response for environmental conservation through economic mechanisms. By connecting nature services with people who benefit from them, it creates a sustainable intervention for the ecosystem’s management while enhancing human well-being according to policy implementers.
