    Sammanfattning : This dissertation focuses the attention toward inventors and key actors involved in product development projects. The study focuses on how a new product development process is carried out operationally and strategically in small, technology-driven firms. LÄS MER

  4. 33. Macromolecular Matchmaking : Mechanisms and Biology of Bacterial Small RNAs

    Författare :Erik Holmqvist; E. Gerhart H. Wagner; Udo Bläsi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Small RNA; sRNA; non-coding RNA; antisense; gene regulation; post-transcriptional regulation; translational control; outer membrane protein; OmpA; MicA; biofilm; flagella; curli; bistability; Lrp; MicF; CsgD; FlgM; OmrA; OmrB; Biologi med inriktning mot mikrobiologi; Biology with specialization in Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Cells sense the properties of the surrounding environment and convert this information into changes in gene expression. Bacteria are, in contrast to many multi-cellular eukaryotes, remarkable in their ability to cope with rapid environmental changes and to endure harsh and extreme milieus. LÄS MER

  5. 34. Adopting Information Systems Perspectives from Small Organizations

    Författare :Özgün Imre; Alf Westelius; Carl-Johan Petri; Nils-Göran Olve; Malin Gawell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; information system adoption; small organizations; discourse; negotiation; stakeholder theory; social worlds; Economic Information Systems; Ekonomiska informationssystem;

    Sammanfattning : Why do organizations adopt information systems? Is it just because of financial reasons, of concerns for efficiency? Or is it due to external pressures, such as competitor pressure, that an organization adopts an information system?And, how does the adoption take place? Is it a linear process, or is the process one of  conflicts? Does a specific person govern this process, or do we have multiple parties involved? What happens if these conflicts occur among those involved? How does the organization move on and achieve a successful information system adoption?By investigating two organizations, one international academic journal and one South American manufacturing company, this thesis aims to investigate the whys and hows of information system adoption, and aims to contribute to the discourse on information system adoptions in small organizations – an often underrepresented segment in information system adoption literature.By adopting different theoretical lenses throughout the five research papers included, this body of work suggests that even when seemingly simple, information system adoptions can become rather complex.

  7. 35. Small-Scale Production of Fuel-Cell Hydrogen

    Författare :Christian Hulteberg; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydrogen; Chemical Engineering; Catalysis; Small-Scale;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented here aims at producing hydrogen for proton-exchange fuel-cell applications from hydrocarbons. This thesis describes an integrated catalytic converter comprising a steam-reforming reactor (heat of reaction supplied by catalytic combustion), a water-gas shift reactor and a preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide reactor, and the work performed on the fuel processing catalysts therein.
