Value-based pricing is by many companies as well as in academia perceived as the preferred pricing model. The pricing literature includes a long-standing debate on pricing authority and centralized pricing authority can be associated with value-based pricing strategies. A critical success factor for value-based pricing is customer value assessment, and many companies have experienced challenges in

Fried chicken or a vegetarian lunch? Dried llama meat or filet mignon? The cuisine in the “culinary capital of Bolivia”, the city of Cochabamba, is very diverse. Ethnographic research carried out by the author shows that the diet of the “Cochabambinos” is intimately linked to social status and social power struggles. In this paper, the author uses Bourdieu’s notion of the “field” in order to analy

The extraction of spectral information in the inversion process of time-domain (TD) induced polarization (IP) data is changing the use of the TDIP method. Data interpretation is evolving from a qualitative description of the subsurface, able only to discriminate the presence of contrasts in chargeability parameters, towards a quantitative analysis of the investigated media, which allows for detail

The need for detailed subsurface information is increasing due to city expansion and infill projects as well as subsurface construction projects. One common method for acquiring this geo-information is the direct current resistivity and time domain induced polarization method (DCIP) that measures the electrical resistivity and chargeability of the subsurface. The work presented in this thesis demo

Heat exchanger network pinch sets the limitations of heat recovery for existing network topologies. Improving the heat recovery within a pinched-network is independent of the areas of individual exchangers present in the network, rather the topology of the network must be altered. Such a change in the topology can be very capital intensive and in many cases seems not easy to implement. This resear

This deliverable presents channel measurement results for the scenariosOpen exhibition and Crowded auditiorium. The measurement procedureand equipment are described. Massive MIMO (MaMi) channel characteristicsand key parameters are extracted and used in an extended COST 2100channel model for MaMi. The initial validation performed shows that themodel is capable of reproducing the statistics in term

This thesis analyzes some aspects of the appropriation of labor time and natural space in the Inka Empire (ca. AD 1400 – 1532) in order to illuminate the cultural organization of Inka imperial metabolism. Rather than understanding Inka imperialism simply as a political process with socioecological consequences, it is investigated as an ecological process organized through specific cultural categor

This book provides linguists with a clear, critical, and comprehensive overview of theoretical and experimental work on information structure. Leading researchers survey the main theories of information structure in syntax, phonology, and semantics as well as perspectives from psycholinguistics and other relevant fields. Following the editors' introduction the book is divided into four parts. The

With the ever growing requirement for higher data rates, terminals supporting multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technologies (or MIMO terminals) are being developed for the beyond-3G wireless communication systems such as HSPA and LTE. To ensure that the terminals are capable of delivering the promises of MIMO technology, test systems for the performance evaluation of MIMO devices are needed.

Technological advancements in combination with significant reductions in price have made it practically feasible to run experiments with multiple eye trackers. This enables new types of experiments with simultaneous recordings of eye movement data from several participants, which is of interest for researchers in, e.g., social and educational psychology. The Lund University Humanities Laboratory r

This article focuses on fan experiences of place in the Scandinavian crime series The Bridge (Bron||Broen). It offers four in-depth portraits of fans representing different modes of engaging with geographies of the imagination based on participant observations and qualitative semi-structured interviews with 80 audience members conducted in Denmark, Sweden and the UK. The analysis draws attention t

This article explores civic engagement with the Danish/Swedish crime series The Bridge (Danmarks Radio/Sveriges Television 2011–) based on qualitative interviews with 113 audience members, and drawing on the notion of cultural citizenship. The perspective of cultural citizenship, as understood and operationalized mainly by Hermes, is married with critical perspectives on the crime drama genre and
