16. Designing Future Advisory Traffic Information Systems - A Step towards Cross-Regional Adaptive Design for Improving Driving Safety and Comfort
Sammanfattning : Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving capabilities have become increasingly widespread, and implementations already exist in cars today. Given these dramatic technological changes, human-machine interaction design is facing new challenges. LÄS MER
17. Government vs Market in Sustainable Residential Development? : Microdata analysis of car travel, CO2 emission and residence location
Sammanfattning : Increasing car usage and travel demands between residential locations and destinations in order to fulfill the various needs of residents is a primary cause of CO2 emissions. To win the battle against climate change, a better understanding of the question relating to which urban residential form may most effectively mitigate the CO2 emissions is the key pathway. LÄS MER
18. Policy and transitions processes in sector systems of innovation and production
Sammanfattning : In the last decades, innovation and innovation processes in industry have been regarded as critical to establishing sustainable economic competitiveness and development-both crucial for societal goals and visions. In the aftermath of the tirst oil crisis in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the influential work by research schalars' has inspired a comprehensive new order in economic research internationally which will be discussed in this thesis.

19. Micro-Foundations of Organizational Adaptation : A Field Study in the Evolution of Product Development Capabilities in a Design Firm
Sammanfattning : The aim of this dissertation is to improve knowledge of how organizations adapt to their dynamic environments, by developing a detailed understanding of the configuration and evolution of organizational replicators. Among open questions in the literature on organizational adaptation, I have explored the following: How can the structure of organizational replicators and the nature of their components be realistically described? How do different organizational replicators interact with each other at different levels within and across organizational boundaries? How do replicators evolve? Why do firms need dynamic capabilities? I’ve addressed these questions by means of an embedded, longitudinal field study of Alessi, an Italian firm founded in 1921, active in the development and production of hundreds of design household products.

20. Here be monsters: Investigating sociotechnical interaction in safety-critical work in the maritime domain
Sammanfattning : Maritime Pilots and Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) operators work to improve the safety of navigation of seagoing vessels. As in many other safety-critical domains, work is increasingly characterised by the integration and dissemination of information between humans and technology, across disciplines and over multiple geographical locations.
