  2. 1. National environmental evaluation systems : guiding towards sustainability?

    Author : Magnus Larsson; Anders Hanberger; Katarina Eckerberg; Daniel Larsson; Per Mickwitz; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; environmental evaluation; evaluation systems; evaluation use; sustainable development; program theory; stakeholders; environmental policy;

    Abstract : Background: Dealing with environmental threats is one of the largest, if not the largest, challenge contemporary societies face. One way to better deal with this challenge would be to produce knowledge that can be used to improve environmental work and environmental policy and thus ultimately contribute to sustainable development.

  4. 2. A program manipulation system based on partial evaluation

    Author : Anders Haraldsson; Erik Sandewall; Mats Nordström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; program manipulation; partial evaluation; program optimization; LISP; beta-expansion; macro-expansion; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Program manipulation is the task to perform transformations on program code, and is normally done in order to optimize the code with respect of the utilization of some computer resource. Partial evaluation is the task when partial computations can be performed in a program before it is actually executed. READ MORE

  5. 3. Att utvärdera i praktiken : The practice of evalutation - a retrospective study for local change and development in public libraries

    Author : Angela Zetterlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Evaluation; Evaluation Practice; Program; Project; Public Library; Library Management; Institutional Theory; Library and Information Science; Library and Information Services;

    Abstract : The study is placed within the area of library and information science (LIS) known as ”evaluation research” and in particular, the area that relates to theory of evaluation practice. An analysis of previous research reveals that there is a need for conceptualising evaluation activities in the real life of libraries and information services and to reflect further on the conditions for evaluation in various institutional contexts.

  6. 4. Evaluation of Swedish Ice Cleat Distribution Programs : From Program Design to Ice Cleat Use

    Author : Robin Holmberg; Carl Bonander; Johanna Gustavsson; Mikael Svensson; Agneta Larsson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; program evaluation; ice cleats; anti-slip devices; usage rates; older adults; Risk and Environmental Studies; Risk- och miljöstudier;

    Abstract : Winter conditions, characterized by snow and lowered temperatures, can make travel by foot difficult. Older adults aged 65 and above are especially at risk of slipping and falling on icy or snowy surfaces. Minor falls can result in severe injuries due to their frailty. READ MORE

  7. 5. Functional Program Correctness Through Types

    Author : Nils Anders Danielsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; well-typed syntax; normalisation by evaluation; program correctness; total languages; partial languages; lazy evaluation; time complexity; strong invariants; dependent types;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the problem of avoiding errors in functionalprograms. The thesis has three parts, discussing different aspects ofprogram correctness, with the unifying theme that types are anintegral part of the methods used to establish correctness. READ MORE
