Syftet med studien är att fördjupa förståelsen för chefers roll i innovationsprocesser inom unga kunskapsintensiva organisationer, med fokus på deras direkta och indirekta påverkan på innovation. Studien är utförd enligt kvalitativ forskningsstrategi, där insamlingen av data skedde genom intervjuer. Materialet analyserades sedan med hjälp av en innehållsanalys. Teorin grundas i aktuell forskning k
With the relative performance between accounting-based and option-based approaches for default prediction being a key subject in previous research, combined with criticism against the rating agencies’ timeliness in assigning credit ratings, surprisingly few attempts have been made to investigate the models’ usefulness in predicting corporate credit ratings. This thesis is the first to investigate
Globalization has developed workplaces that contain a mixture of people with different cultural backgrounds. Managing a culturally diverse workplace can be challenging and strategies for managing require constant improvements and adaptations in order to have a successful work environment. The purpose of this thesis is to highlight and gain a deeper understanding of how the power of cultural divers
Studiens resultat visar tecken på att revisionsbyråer inte har ett så stort ekonomiskt intresse i den lobbying de bedriver i samband med standardförändringar, som tidigare studier och teorier uttryckt. Istället har vi sett att revisionsbyråerna snarare agerar i samhällets intressen. Revisionsbyråerna är enligt vår studie mer benägna att undvika en ökad revisionsrisk, än att lobba för förändringar
Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och analysera innehållet i bankers riskrapportering och huruvida en förändring har skett. Teorin innefattar en definition av riskbegreppet, samt vilka typer av risk en bank kan ställas inför. Det redogörs även för vad den institutionella teorin och ägarkostnadsteorin innebär. Utifrån teorierna presenteras slutligen Abrahams och Shrives (2014) modell om kval
Uppsatsens syfte är att genom intervjuer undersöka hur ekonomistudenter resonerar kring sin personliga, karriärorienterade identitetsskapande på sociala medier med utgångspunkt i teorier kring Consumer Culture Theory, symbolisk interaktionism och consumer empowerment. Studiens syfte uppnås med en kvalitativ metod samt ett fenomenologiskt och hermeneutiskt förhållningssätt. Primärdata har samlats i
Omegapoint AB acquired a TurtleBot 2 to explore one of the more popular open source robots on the market. Omegapoint wanted a web application, written specifically for them, to control the TurtleBot 2 for use in the Omegapoint office environment. One of the main things taken into consideration when designing the application was that it had to be runnable and usable not only on stationary computers
This thesis work was done in the SCAN COIN headquarters in Malmö, Sweden. In the work, we investigate the possibility to optimize the product SCAN COIN CashComplete POS. CashComplete is a closed system that makes it easy to pay with notes and coins and get the correct change back. To make CashComplete more attractive in a self-checkout environment the products price must be decreased. This work fo
This thesis is developed with collaboration and on behalf of Tetra Pak AB. The assignment was to create an internal system to manage site information and a license server to validate licenses. These systems are uniquely tailored for Tetra Pak’s requirements and the software they want to license. The internal system manages data that the sales division enters and creates text files from that site c
This bachelor thesis and project were done at Combitech AB in Helsingborg where the company had shown a previous interest in a rule engine solution for placement in the cloud. Part of the project was to identify an existing rule engine that could be further developed and implemented into a larger solution also adhering to any requirements presented by the target cloud system. Several candidates we
-A study focusing on the voltage fluctuations and symmetry at the one- and three-phase connections of photovoltaic systems.
One problem with the Swedish railways is the low reliability and punctuality. A distinction can be made between major and minor disorders, where minor disorders have a greater impact on overall punctuality because of its large numbers. One way to describe the large disorders are with punctuality dips and punctuality depressions, which are short-term and long-term variations in punctuality. This st
Prevas has in its customer contracts had a need for a simpler general manager for process recipes which send recipe parameters (eg rotational speed of a mixer or temperature in a furnace, etc.) to a Programmable Logic Controller. Software for this is available on the market but are either too complex or costly. To solve this problem a Windows service was developed. This report briefly describes ho
Målet med uppsatsen är att studera hur en välfungerande kallelsemall kan se ut samt att studera processen att ta fram en ny kallelse. Metoden som används är textanalys med kritisk diskursanalys som teoretisk ram. Två mallar för kallelse till cellprov har analyserats – en äldre version från region Stockholm Gotland samt en ny nationell cellprovskallelse. Analysen av språkhandlingar, attityder, närh
Producing electrical power with photovoltaic solar panels is very attractive as the sun constitutes an inexhaustible source of clean energy. However, in order to make it a better alternative to other energy sources, its drawbacks must be addressed. In particular, scientific research is very active to find technologies that increase the efficiency of the solar cells, or decrease their cost. Reducin
Identifying mitotic figures in digital pathology images is useful in diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. The task itself is time consuming and sometimes difficult for pathologists. Recent research has focused on machine learning for automatic detection of mitoses. The aim of this work was to apply image processing to facilitate ocular examination of mitotic figures in hematoxylin and eosin stained
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) are key enzymes for transformation of RNA building blocks (NTPs) to DNA building blocks (dNTPs), an essential step in biological systems. RNRs are known to be the first enzymes identified with free radical chemistry and play an important role in having a tight control over dNTP levels, as these DNA building blocks are needed for vital cellular processes such as cell
Much attention has been paid to Indigenous gender ideologies and Indigenous women´s political participation in Latin America. The construction of gender equality and its implications for Indigenous women’s activism in Ecuador´s Indigenous movement is, however, widely undiscovered terrain. The purpose of this qualitative case study of CONAIE was to address this gap and connect the dots by asking: H
Chefer och ingenjörer på fallföretaget har olika syn på innovation, vilket resulterar i en diskrepans vad gäller synen på hur innovation bör ledas. I det dagliga arbetet efterfrågar ingenjörerna på fallföretaget autonomi. Huvudbidraget i denna studie består i att den visar hur efterfrågan på autonomi faktiskt förändras när det gäller innovationsprocesser, i denna specifika form av kontext efterfrå
Miljöcertifieringar är en växande marknad i Sverige där intresset och efterfrågan från hyresgäster ökar. Många fastighetsföretag har idag som policy att all nyproduktion och större ombyggnader ska miljöcertifieras. Mycket tyder på att miljöcertifieringar kan bli en framtida praxis i den svenska fastighetsbranschen. Certifieringar har flera ekonomiska fördelar som positivt kan påverka en fastighet
