   Abstract : This dissertation studies the social aspects of technology in distance education trough the lens of history – in the form of correspondence education – and a possible future – in the form of a project of technical standardization, Learning Objects. The studied cases form a reflexive tool that allows the present of distance education to be seen in perspective. READ MORE

4. 2. Individualizing assembly processes for geometric quality improvement

   Author : Abolfazl Rezaei Aderiani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Selective Assembly; Individualization of production; Locator Adjustments; sheet metal assembly processes; Variation Simulations; Geometry Assurance;

   Abstract : Dimensional deviations are a consequence of the mass production of parts. These deviations can be controlled by tightening production tolerances. However, this solution is not always desired because it usually increases production costs. READ MORE

Traditionally the region of Norrbotten has favoured the public sector. READ MORE

6. 4. IMPROVING GEOMETRICAL QUALITY BY INDIVIDUALIZING THE ASSEMBLY PROCESS

   Author : Abolfazl Rezaei Aderiani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geometry Assurance; Locator Adjustments; Selective Assembly; Variation Simulations; Individual assembly processes;

   Abstract : Dimensional deviations are a consequence of the mass production of parts. These deviations can be controlled by tightening production tolerances. However, this solution is not always desired because it increases production costs. READ MORE

7. 5. Intermediation in Business Networks: A Case Study in the Textile and Clothing Industry

   Author : Viktoria Sundquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; textile; channel; clothing; industrial network; intermediation; intermediaries;

   Abstract : Intermediation is a central concept in the marketing channel literature where it is used for analyzing how specific firms, intermediaries, connect producers and users. It is argued that intermediation is primarily about increasing transaction efficiency when intermediaries undertake functions for closing the gap between producer stocks and consumer assortments, thus bridging discrepancies in time and place between supply and demand.
