  4. 7. Design and use of mobile technology in distance language education : Matching learning practices with technologies-in-practice

    Author : Olga Viberg; Åke Grönlund; Mats Tegmark; Annika Andersson; Victor Kaptelinin; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; online distance education; mobile learning; mobile-assisted language learning; information systems artefact; design science research; learning practices; structuration; self-regulation; technology-in-practice; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys; Informatik; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the adaptation of formal education to people’s technology- use patterns, theirtechnology-in-practice, where the ubiquitous use of mobile technologies is central. The research question is: How can language learning practices occuring in informal learning environments be effectively integrated with formal education through the use of mobile technology? The study investigates the technical, pedagogical, social and cultural challenges involved in a design science approach.

  5. 8. Road network and GPS tracking with data processing and quality assessment

    Author : Xiaoyun Zhao; Johan Håkansson; Kenneth Carling; Bin Jiang; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; GPS tracking; Reliability; Road network; visualized map; road network; Map-matching; P-median Model; Network density; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : GPS technology has been embedded into portable, low-cost electronic devices nowadays to track the movements of mobile objects. This implication has greatly impacted the transportation field by creating a novel and rich source of traffic data on the road network. READ MORE

  6. 9. Who benefits when IKEA enters local markets in Sweden? : An empirical assessment using difference-in-difference analysis, synthetic control methods, and Twitter sentiment analysis

    Author : Yujiao Li; Mark Dougherty; Hasan Fleyeh; Moudud Alam; Oana Mihaescu; Per Johansson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; big-box entry effect; spatial spill-over effect; heterogeneous causal effect; difference-in-difference; synthetic control method; sentiment analysis.; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : Policy makers often spend considerable amounts of money to attract IKEA to their region despite not having any empirical measurements on its expected contribution to the local economy. As such, an empirical study of the economic and social impact of new IKEA stores can aid political decision making, and contribute to the literature regarding how big-box retail entry affects the regions where they enter.

  7. 10. The Optimal trigger speed of vehicle activated signs

    Author : Diala Jomaa; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optimal trigger speed; vehicle activated sign; vehicle mean speed; standard deviation; calibration; Doppler radar; driver behaviour; data analysis; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : The thesis aims to elaborate on the optimum trigger speed for Vehicle Activated Signs (VAS) and to study the effectiveness of VAS trigger speed on drivers’ behaviour. Vehicle activated signs (VAS) are speed warning signs that are activated by individual vehicle when the driver exceeds a speed threshold. READ MORE
