  1. 21. Improving energy efficiency in logistics systems: On the road to environmental sustainability

    Författare :Jessica Wehner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; road freight transport; service modularity; service logic; logistics fulfilment; Capacity utilisation; point of consumption; first mile; service blueprint; household waste; distribution structure; system levels; systems perspective; value co-creation; last mile;

    Sammanfattning : Logistics are essential to efficiently managing the flow of materials and products between various nodes that operate in multiple systems. In that process, the activities of moving and storing materials and products, especially through road freight transport, consume significant energy resources and emit greenhouse gases that harm the environment.

  2. 22. The global energy system through a prism of change : The oil & gas industry and the case of the Arctic

    Författare :Maria Morgunova; Vladimir Kutcherov; Pär Blomkvist; Stefan Andreasson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; global energy system; energy industry; oil gas industry; Arctic offshore; change; transformation; sustainable energy transition; industrial dynamics; multi-level perspective; development blocks; globalt energisystem; energibranschen; olje- och gasindustrin; Arctic offshore; förändring; omvandling; hållbar energiövergång; industriell dynamik; flernivå perspektiv; utvecklingsblock; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Management;

    Sammanfattning : The energy industry as a whole and the oil & gas industry in particular is experiencing changes under the influence of a variety of trends and the changing needs of society. Current social, economic, environmental and climate challenges are raising sharp questions for the established principles of energy production and consumption, increasingly arguing for sustainable trajectories in the development of the global energy system.

  3. 23. Mind the gap : a procurement approach to integrating user-centred design in contract development

    Författare :Erik Markensten; Henrik Artman; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Människa-dator-interaktion; Människa-dator-interaktion; Information technology; Informationsteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Usability professionals seldom get a chance to actually do their job. Instead, they have to argue that usability is something important that should be attended to. This was the initial problem that motivated this thesis. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Mobile Supported e-Government Systems : Analysis of the Education Management Information System (EMIS) in Tanzania

    Författare :Gudrun Wicander; John-Sören Pettersson; Anders G. Nilsson; Peter Rönnlund; Louise Yngström; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; e-Government systems; mobile telephony; SMS; blended digital system; education management; information systems; systems theory; developing countries; Tanzania; ICT4D; M4D; Information Systems; Informatik;

    Sammanfattning : e-Government systems are considered by both governments and international organisations to improve administration and management. In Tanzania, an e-government system for education administration, EMIS, is partly implemented but shows several limitations. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Sociotechnical system studies of the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from energy and transport systems

    Författare :Linda Olsson; Mats Söderström; Annelie Carlson; Magdalena Fallde; Elisabeth Wetterlund; Kes McCormick; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy systems; transport systems; greenhouse gas emissions; energy policy; transport policy; sociotechnical systems analysis; wicked problem; Energisystem; transportsystem; växthusgasutsläpp; energipolicy; transportpolicy; socioteknisk systemanalys; wicked problem;

    Sammanfattning : It is agreed that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from energy and transport systems must be reduced. Technical means exist to reduce GHG emissions from these sources. However, these emission-reduction measures are not implemented to a high enough degree. LÄS MER
