The purpose of this study is to examine types of challenges during the implementation of BPM regarding the set and use of performance indicators from a theoretical and practical perspective. Consequently, this thesis generates an understanding by illuminating reasons behind the previously found challenges. Hereby, this case study has followed a qualitative, abductive research strategy. The used pr

Arbetet behandlar en borrkärna från Tingskullen på norra Öland. Borrningen gjordes 2010. Borrkärnan är ca 107 meter lång och innefattar lager från ordovicium samt mellersta och undre kambrium. Mel-lankambrium utgörs i huvudsak av oelandicuslager, som består av fossilrik slamsten med inslag av siltsten och ett par kalkrika nivåer. Intervallet med oelandicuslager är relativt enhetligt och det går inThe thesis deals with a drill core retrieved from northern Öland, Sweden, in 2010. The length of the core is c. 107 m and comprises an Ordovician and Cambrian succession. The middle Cambrian primarily consists of fossiliferous mudstone with thin siltstone beds. This part of the succession has collectively been referred to as the Oelandicus beds. It is relatively homogeneous in composition and cann

Uppsatsen undersöker synförlustens anledningar och innebörder i fyra verk: "Konung Oidipus" och "Oidipus i Kolonos" av Sofokles, "The Country of the Blind" av H. G. Wells, samt "Blindheten" av José Saramago. Gemensamt för samtliga studerade verk är synförlust, och analyserna har fokuserats på denna synförlusts respektive anledningar och innebörder, synförlus

Aims: Newly-defined subgroups of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been reported from real-world cohorts but not in detail from randomised clinical trials (RCTs). Methods: T2DM participants, uncontrolled on different pre-study therapies (n = 12.738; 82 % Caucasian; 44 % with diabetes duration > 10 years) from 14 RCTs, were assigned to new subgroups according to age at onset of diabetes, HbA1c,

Square Kilometer Array (SKA) is a project aimed to build the largest radio telescope in the world and it has just gotten into the construction phase. In this phase, the ability to develop and integrate software in an integration environment is crucial as it is the ability to visualize system-related information via a User Interface to rapidly verify the correctness of the system behavior and spot

Loess deposits are the most extent continental archives of climatic- and environmental change and represent important components of local and global dust systems. Consequently, their geochemistry provides an excellent basis for studying climate oscillations on land and how these affect processes in the terrestrial system. It is, however, challenging to assess information archived in loess records

This patient case report describes a 45-year old white unmarried man with disability pension due to schizoaffective disorder, diagnosed at the age of 24. He lives in an apartment and has housing support. Retrospectively, the patient displayed prodromal markers of a disorder within the schizophrenia spectrum many years before the onset of frank psychosis, indeed since childhood. Over the years seve

Background Immunotherapy targeting the amyloid beta (A beta) peptide is a potential strategy to slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease. We aimed to assess the safety and tolerability of CAD106, a novel active A beta immunotherapy for patients with Alzheimer's disease, designed to induce N-terminal A beta-specific antibodies without an A beta-specific T-cell response. Methods We did a phase 1,

Direct injection (DI) natural gas engines are modern engine concepts providing clean combustion and high fuel efficiency. Even at high injection pressures, such engines operate at heterogeneous/stratified fuel/air mixture conditions due to the relatively short mixing time of the fuel jet. The sub-optimal fuel-air mixture results in emissions of unburnt hydrocarbon (UHC). In particular, one of the

Syfte Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka om och i så fall hur sångintervention i klassrummet ger effekter på den språkliga förmågan, närmare bestämt på förståelse och produktion av berättelser, hos elever i årskurs 2. Metod Deltagare i studien var 66 elever i årskurs 2 från två olika skolor, fördelade på två grupper A och B. Sångintervention gavs fyra gånger i veckan i 5 veckor och data samlades i

The influence of crowdfunding on financing entrepreneurial ventures and projects have been increasing in recent years. It allows founders of crowdfunding projects to achieve investments from a relatively big crowd using the internet. The recent rise of the crowdfunding phenomena attracts more project founders to establish it as a new entrepreneurial finance method, between bootstrapping and tradit

The Swedish metropolitan politics have had the bottom-up perspective as a major principle to evolve the democratic participation in segregated areas. My objective was to investigate if a bottom-up perspective has been used as a method of evaluation in a sample of 10 evaluation reports made about democratic participation in Malmö. The key questions were; In the evaluations: - How was the bottom-u

Airlines face significant challenges when it comes to sustainability. Globally, the airline industry is responsible for 2% of global emissions and, unfortunately, this number is only increasing (Air New Zealand, 2018). This makes aviation a key actor when attempting to meet the targets published by the IPCC of keeping the global average temperatures below 2°C of pre-industrial levels (IPCC, 2014).
