6. Facilitating collaboration : exploring a socio-technical approach to the design of a collaboratory for Library and Information Science
Sammanfattning : The thesis explores the potential of one way of facilitating and stimulating collaboration in Library and Information Science (LIS), through a specific scientific collaboration activity: creating, sharing and reusing data collection instruments, such as interview guides, questionnaires, and observation protocols. The four studies reported in the thesis can be read as a linear narrative, each study building on the previous and contributing to the following ones. LÄS MER
7. Socio-technical aspects of distributed collaborative engineering
Sammanfattning : In light of globalization, it is becoming increasingly important to take into account both advantages and disadvantages associated with world-wide product development efforts. While globalization means that costs and risks can be decreased, or shared in the case of collaborative projects, it also means that changes in traditional organizational structures are inevitable.

8. Watt’s next? On socio-technical transitions towards future electricity system architectures
Sammanfattning : In the effort to fight climate change, the electricity systems around the world are undergoing a transformation towards being based on renewable sources of energy. The criterion of one hundred per cent renewables can, however, be satisfied in several radically different ways, varying from global or continental super grids via local smart-grids to self-sufficient off-grid communities and households of electricity prosumers.

9. Designing out waste - Exploring barriers for material recirculation
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis has investigated what hinders material recirculation in society, to later suggest possible ways to support material recirculation in the future. Since material recirculation is proposed as a way to use waste materials for new production, it was deemed relevant to investigate two separate case studies that enabled recirculation from production systems and waste management.
