    Sammanfattning : How are formal management controls designed and used in research & development (R&D)? The purpose of this study is to explain how such systems are designed and used in formulating and implementing strategies in a pharmaceutical product development organisation. The study uses a contingency approach to investigate how the control system is adjusted to the business strategy of the firm. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Gränsöverskridande styrning : om krav på ekonomisk styrning i social verksamhet inriktad mot barn och ungdomar

    Författare :Ulrika Westrup; Institutionen för tjänstevetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Human service organisations; Economic planning; Ekonomisk planering; Accountability; Co-operate; Dialogue.; Budget; Management control; Municipality;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study is to contribute to an increased understanding of the demands that the operation’s character places on management control. The study’s point of departure is the assumption that management control must be adapted to the operation’s character in order to be able to support strategy implementation and the achievement of objectives (contingency theory).

  4. 3. Dual control concepts for linear dynamical systems

    Författare :Mina Ferizbegovic; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Thomas B. Schön; Cristian R. Rojas; Roy Smith; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : We study simultaneous learning and control of linear dynamical systems. In such a setting, control policies are derived with respect to two objectives: i) to control the system as well as possible, given the current knowledge of system dynamics (exploitation), and ii) to gather as much information as possible about the unknown system that can improve control (exploration).

  5. 4. Robust learning and control of linear dynamical systems

    Författare :Mina Ferizbegovic; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Thomas B. Schön; Cristian R. Rojas; Florian Dörfler; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : We consider the linear quadratic regulation problem when the plant is an unknown linear dynamical system. We present robust model-based methods based on convex optimization, which minimize the worst-case cost with respect to uncertainty around model estimates. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modeling and Control of Stiff Robots for Flexible Manufacturing

    Författare :Isolde Dressler; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : To survive on a global market, small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) require affordable and competitive industrial automation for high quality flexible manufacturing. This thesis contributes to the development of robot concepts that fit the needs of SMEs. LÄS MER
