    Författare :Magnus Nilsson; Företagsekonomiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Proximity; Competitiveness; Firm-external resources; Cluster theory; Resource-based view;

    Sammanfattning : “The death of distance” has become the battle cry of a modern generation of managers, policy makers and scientists who embrace the new globalized economy and its promise of frictionless exchange across the world. While highly influential, this view does not, however, stand unchallenged. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Models of Surface Roughness with Applications in Paper Industry

    Författare :Jan-Olof Johansson; Matematisk statistik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Statistik; actuarial mathematics; operations research; programming; Matematik; Statistics; Mathematics; estimation.; Surface roughness; parametric models; operationsanalys; programmering; aktuariematematik; Wood; pulp and paper technology; Pappers- och massateknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises general parametric models for surface roughness. The models can be used in several technical and natural applications but are here only applied to the micro-structure of paper. In that application, earlier models are generalized and new models introduced. LÄS MER

  4. 13. The value of information sharing in automotive supply chains: Understanding the role of information utilisation for operations planning and control

    Författare :Paulina Myrelid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; information sharing; information utilisation; automotive industry; planning processes; information quality; performance; buyer-supplier relationships; operations planning and control;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of the thesis is to provide knowledge about the role of information utilisation in suppliers’ operations planning and control (OPC) processes, for generating value of shared demand-related information in automotive supply chains. To do so, the thesis focuses on information utilisation from three different perspectives: (1) how suppliers utilise shared information; (2) why they utilise the information the way they do; and (3) the effect of the utilisation.

  7. 15. Kunskap och innovation i ett moget kluster : En ekonomisk-geografisk studie av aluminiumindustrin i Småland-Blekinge

    Författare :Magnus Lagerholm; Anders Malmberg; Anders Waxell; Karl-Johan Lundquist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Social and economic geography; economic geography; mature industry; cluster; agglomeration; systems of innovation; labour market mobility; Sweden; Kulturgeografi; kulturgeografi; Social and Economic Geography;

    Sammanfattning : The thesis aims at understanding mechanisms behind knowledge generation and learning in a mature cluster by analysing firms in south-east Sweden engaged in the development and manufacturing of aluminium products. The point of departure is in concepts and assumptions related to spatially concen-trated systems of similar and related firms and industries, such as agglomera-tions, clusters or innovation systems.
