In today’s business landscape the view and role of the customer, or market, in shaping and guiding strategy and the competitive advantage of a business, is given increasing attention within many areas of business theory. By definition the supply chain discipline focuses on suppliers from the perspective of the manufacturer, not customers. However this paper illustrates the use of the supply chain
In this article we give an overview of some challenges in how to make geospatial information more useable and accessible. We also suggest a roadmap for dealing with these challenges – and introduce a new EU project HaptiMap.
Projects often suffer from lack of logistics considerations in the early phases. Since logistics is not the main focus of the people involved in the project, logistics solutions become reactive rather than proactive. With the increasing global competition, forcing companies to shorten time-to-market for their projects and becoming more cost effective, it becomes increasingly important to manage pr
The partitioning of 10% (w/w) lactic acid in ethylene oxide propylene oxide (EOPO) random copolymers and dextran T500 aqueous two-phase systems was studied. An analysis of variance design was applied to investigate the effect of pH, polymer concentration, and addition of polyethyleneimine to the aqueous two-phase systems. The lowest lactate partition coefficient of 0.09 was obtained at pH 6 in the
Agriculture in many African countries is characterised by large diversity in production and great variation in growing conditions, irrigation potential and access to markets. This variation has proved to be a difficult matter when adjusting national agricultural policies and development projects to local conditions. In the face of the recent trend of less support for agricultural extension servic
We report on large scale ab initio calculation for the 4s(2) S-1(0)-4s4p P-1,3(0,1,2) transitions in the zinc-like sequence, using the multiconfiguration Dirac Fock ( MCDF) method. Our attention is focused on the spin-forbidden transition 4s(2) S-1(0)-4s4p P-3(1) and the hyperfine- induced ( HPF) transition 4s(2) S-1(0)-4s4p P-3(0) for ions between Z = 30 ( Zn) and Z = 47 ( Ag). Our results provid
Wastewater treatment plant operators encounter complex operational problems related to the activated sludge process and usually respond to these by applying their own intuition and by taking advantage of what they have learnt from past experiences of similar problems. However, previous process experiences are not easy to integrate in numerical control, and new tools must be developed to enable re-
Galectins are implicated in a large variety of biological functions, many of which depend on their carbohydrate-binding ability. Fifteen members of the family have been identified in vertebrates based on binding to galactose (Gal) that is mediated by one or two, evolutionarily conserved, carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs). Variations in glycan structures expressed on glycoconjugates at the ce
In Australia a national public/private telematics framework has been established, which is administered by Transport Certification Australia (TCA). The first application was the Intelligent Access Program (IAP), which has enabled several road transport reforms by managing infrastructure risks associated with the operation of extra heavy vehicle configurations. The paper uses the IAP to demonstrate
In mathematical education it is crucial to have a good teaching plan and to execute it correctly. In particular, this is true in the field of numerical analysis. Every teacher has a different style of teaching. This thesis studies how the basic material of a particular topic in numerical analysis was developed in four different textbooks. We compare and evaluate this process in order to achieve a
Purpose: The purpose of this study is trying to understand which elements are essential to obtain loyalty in the alcoholic beverage industry and how companies can focus their branding efforts on these drivers of loyalty. Methodology: A literature review is conducted to identify the key drivers which can influence brand loyalty. These drivers are then analysed by researching two case studies, Hein
This is a qualitative study on the characters of Ronja, the robber’s daughter and how they have been interpreted in Studio Ghibli’s anime version. It focuses on characterization from the perspective of role language and character language and how they reinforce the themes and characters of Ronja. Example sentences have been analyzed and discussed from various major characters. In summary, role lan
This thesis examines how sustainability is prioritised politically and integrated in the Danish municipal primary and lower secondary education. It consults representatives from the Ministry of Education, the unicipality of Copenhagen and ten lower secondary education teachers about their perceptions of sustainability and education and their experiences with integration of sustainability education
