1. 16. Asymmetry and the moderating effects of formal institutional distance on the relationship between cultural distance and performance of foreign subsidiaries in Latin America

   Författare :Henrique Correa da Cunha; Svante Andersson; Mohamed Amal; Mikael Hilmersson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Asymmetry; institutional distance; cultural distance; subsidiary; performance; Latin America;

   Sammanfattning : This study investigates how Cultural and Formal Institutional distances and their interaction affect the performance of multinational foreign subsidiaries in Latin America. It is shown that using Kogut and Singh (1988) index or attributing the positive and negative signals to distances in opposite directions fail to capture asymmetric effects as it assumes either symmetry or opposing symmetry.

3. 17. May the power be with you : managing power-performance tradeoffs in cloud data centers

   Författare :Jakub Krzywda; Erik Elmroth; Per-Olov Östberg; Ahmed Ali-Eldin; Tarek F. Abdelzaher; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cloud computing; data centers; power efficiency; power budgeting; application performance;

   Sammanfattning : The overall goal of the work presented in this thesis was to find ways of managing power-performance tradeoffs in cloud data centers. To this end, the relationships between the power consumption of data center servers and the performance of applications hosted in data centers are analyzed, models that capture these relationships are developed, and controllers to optimize the use of data center infrastructures are proposed.

4. 18. The Development and Evaluation of Hospital Pay-for-Performance in Lebanon: Casemix, Readmissions and Patient Perspectives

   Författare :Jade Khalife; Socialmedicin och global hälsa; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Health system; Hospital performance; Pay-for-performance; Evaluation; Patient perspectives; Casemix; Readmissions; Lebanon;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Pay-for-performance (P4P) has been widely used in healthcare, but there are few experiences of hospital-based P4P at scale. The evidence of impact from these has been mixed, and there has been increased recognition of the importance of different contexts, designs, incentives and other factors. LÄS MER

7. 20. Improving Machining System Performance through designed-in Damping : Modelling, Analysis and Design Solutions

   Författare :Lorenzo Daghini; Cornel Mihai Nicolescu; Miroslav Píška; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machining performance; Cutting stability; Passive damping; High Damping Interface; Boring bar; Turret; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

   Sammanfattning : With advances in material technology, allowing, for instance, engines to withstand higher combustion pressure and consequently improving performance, comes challenges to productivity. These materials are, in fact, more difficult to machine with regards to tool wear and especially machine tool stability. LÄS MER
