    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Big Data; Apache Spark; Virtual Screening; EEG; Cloud Computing; Life Sciences; Machine Learning; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : We are experiencing a deluge of data in all fields of scientific and business research, particularly in the life sciences, due to the development of better instrumentation and the rapid advancements that have occurred in information technology in recent times. There are major challenges when it comes to handling such large amounts of data. READ MORE

  4. 12. Beyond IT and Productivity : Effects of Digitized Information Flows in the Logging Industry

    Author : Maria Kollberg; Birger Rapp; Thomas Falk; Bo Carlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Information technology; productivity paradox; digitization; logging industry; Business and economics; Ekonomi; Economic Information Systems; Ekonomiska informationssystem;

    Abstract : The IT and productivity paradox has been the subject of considerable research in recent decades. Many previous studies, based mainly on macroeconomic statistics or on aggregated company data, have reached disparate conclusions. Consequently, the question whether IT investments contribute to productivity growth is still heavily debated. READ MORE

    Author : Richard Hedman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; work study; Production improvement; productivity measurement; capacity;

    Abstract : The role of manufacturing has been vital for the creation of welfare in advanced economies ever since the industrial revolution. During the last decades several new markets have emerged and actors in manufacturing are competing on, what is now so often referred to as, globalised markets. READ MORE

  6. 14. Laser powder bed fusion of 316L stainless steel - Microstructure and mechanical properties as a function of process parameters, design and productivity

    Author : Alexander Leicht; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tensile properties; productivity; design for additive manufacturing; additive manufacturing; thin-wall structures; stainless steel; laser powder bed fusion; microstructure; 316L;

    Abstract : One of the most common additive manufacturing techniques for fabricating metallic components is laser powder bed fusion, which has demonstrated great potential in fabricating parts with properties exceeding the properties achieved via conventional methods. To fully utilize the process’s potential, a more profound understanding of the microstructure and properties of the laser powder bed fusion processed material is required. READ MORE

  7. 15. Ergonomics Methods and Work Procedures in Car Manufacturing for Improvement of Quality, Productivity and Health at Work

    Author : Ann-Christine Falck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cost-benefit; ergonomics; manufacturing; productivity; risk assessment; quality;

    Abstract : Many studies have concluded that there are great human and economic gains in finding ergonomically sound solutions as early as possible in product and production development. Hence, the objective of the research presented in this thesis was to evaluate methods for improved ergonomics assessment in early phases of product and production development and in production.
