2. 1. Operational Military Violence : A Cartography of Bureaucratic Minds and Practices

   Author : Anders Malm; Marie Demker; Dan Öberg; Annika Bergman-Rosamond; Försvarshögskolan; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; military violence; bureaucratisation; operational level; targeting; military masculinity; Krigsvetenskap; Krigsvetenskap; military violence; bureaucratisation; operational level; targeting; military masculinity;

   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.

4. 2. Future Technology Support of Command and Control : Assessing the impact of assumed future technologies on cooperative command and control

   Author : Mats Persson; Else Nygren; Tim Grant; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; command; control; cooperative; collaboration; decision-making; effectiveness; human-computer interaction; microworld; network-centric; military; team; beslutsfattande; effektivitet; ledning; mikrovärld; militär; människa-datorinteraktion; nätverkscentrerad; samarbete; team; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot människa-datorinteraktion; Computer Science with specialization in Human-Computer Interaction;

   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. On System Dynamics as an Approach for Manufacturing Systems Development

   Author : Gary Linnéusson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system dynamics; manufacturing systems development; operational; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknik; Technology;

   Abstract : Improvement work in manufacturing industry usually focuses on the utilisation of equipment. System dynamics simulation is a potential tool for increasing the utilisation of systems. By using group model building and simulation it facilitates a common view and better informed decisions for change. READ MORE

6. 4. Management of technology in the process industries:  Matching market and machine

   Author : Peter Samuelsson; Pär Jönsson; Rob Boom; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process industries; manufacturing; innovation; configuration; strategizing; capability; configuration modelling; process industries; production system; physical modelling; AOD; converter geometry; injection; mixing times; electric arc furnace; EAF; post-combustion; high-impedance; network disturbances; operational results; Metallurgical process science; Metallurgisk processvetenskap;

   Abstract : The process industries span multiple industrial sectors and constitute a substantial part of the entire manufacturing industry. Since companies belonging to this family of industries are often very asset intensive, their ability to respond to changes is often limited in the short term. READ MORE

7. 5. Strategic and operational capabilities in steel production : Product variety and performance

   Author : Joakim Storck; Bengt Lindberg; Christer Johansson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Steel production; system dynamics; product variety; production strategy; cost models; Manufacturing engineering; Produktionsteknik;

   Abstract : Steel producers that employ niche market strategies are continuously seeking to reduce production cost while maintaining adiverse product mix. The business model is typically based onmarketing of high–strength special or stainless steels. READ MORE
