    Abstract : Western use of military violence is becoming increasingly centralised, partly through the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (or more commonly referred to as “drones” in the literature). Drone technology allows control and command of military operations to be put under one roof, and as military organisations traditionally have a close dependence on technological developments, procedures and regulations for centralised command and control have developed in close concert with advances in drone technology.

    Abstract : In response to technological advances, especially in the field of information and communication technology (ICT), the so called revolution in military affairs (RMA) and later the concept of network-centric warfare (NCW) emerged as a theory to further utilize technology for military command and control (C2). Advocates of the Swedish ROLF 2010-vision and the concept of NCW have made claims and assumptions that future technology will improve mission effectiveness by, for example, increasing the understanding of a current situation and its development, the speed of command, and providing means to utilize more efficient forms of organizations.

  5. 3. The flight perturbation problem : operational aircraft rescheduling

    Author : Tobias Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : When there is a perturbation in a carefully planned flight schedule, e.g. an aircraft breakdown, it is important to minimize the negative consequences of this disturbance. In this thesis, a model and a number of solution strategies for the Flight Perturbation Problem is presented. READ MORE

  6. 4. Operational Semantics for PLEX : A Basis for Safe Parallelization

    Author : Johan Lindhult; Björn Lisper; Nordlander Johan; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The emerge of multi-core computers implies a major challenge for existing software. Due to simpler cores, the applications will face decreased performance if not executed in parallel. The problem is that much of the software is sequential.Central parts of the AXE telephone exchange system from Ericsson is programmed in the language PLEX. READ MORE

  7. 5. Retail trade demands on distributors : strategic and operational implications

    Author : Markus Henningsson; Linköpings universitet; []
