2. 1. Economizing on supply network development

   Author : Nojan Najafi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Supply network development; Economic sense making; Industrial Networks Approach; Purchasing; Economizing;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with economizing on supply network development. The problematization in thisthesis builds on two starting points. First, the ever-increasing importance of purchasing as afunction and the role of suppliers as resource providers means that the supply side of firms hasbecome a spring of opportunities for various types of benefits.

4. 2. Supply Chain Risk Management : Identification, Evaluation and Mitigation Techniques

   Author : S.Nurmaya Musa; Ou Tang; Jan Olhager; David Zhang; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : Supply chain risk management; risk analysis; risk control; co-citation; system dynamics; modelling;

   Abstract : Supply chains have expanded rapidly over the decades, with the aim to increase productivity, lower costs and fulfil demands in emerging markets. The increasing complexity in a supply chain hinders visibility and consequently reduces one’s control over the process. READ MORE

5. 3. Supply network configuration for small-series apparel production in high-cost contexts : Opportunities and challenges from selected EU countries

   Author : Sara Harper; Rudrajeet Pal; Vijay Kumar; Liz Barnes; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; high-cost contexts; customization; supply network configuration; priorities; challenges; paradox theory; högkostnadssammanhang; kundanpassning; konfiguration av försörjningsnätverk; prioriteringar; utmaningar; paradoxteori; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

   Abstract : In high-cost textile and apparel industry contexts, local and small-series production models (demand-driven/on-demand) are increasingly relevant due to various pressures, including global risks, and demands to reduce overproduction for profitability and environmental sustainability. However, understanding how such reconfigurations impact supply chains more broadly, and what are the associated implementation challenges, is required. READ MORE

6. 4. Modelling District Heating Network Costs

   Author : Luis Sánchez-García; Urban Persson; Helge Averfalk; Erik Möllerström; Marcus Thern; Magnus Åberg; Sweden Lund Lund University; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; District Heating; Pipe network; Cost analysis; Distribution Capital Cost; Effective Width; Plot Ratio; Heat Density; GIS; Smart Cities and Communities; Smarta städer och samhällen;

   Abstract : The solution of the undergoing climate and energy crises requires a radical transformation of the energy system, in which sustainability, no carbon emissions and energy efficiency ought to play a paramount role. This revolution should extend to all areas of the energy system, including the space heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a third of the European final energy demand and, in the European continent, it is still mostly supplied by fossil fuels.

7. 5. On the Quality of Computer Network Measurements

   Author : Patrik Arlos; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Network Measurements; Network Measurement Accuracy; Timestamp Accuracy; Quality of Measurements; Traffic Generation; Analysis; Sampling;

   Abstract : Due to the complex diversity of contemporary Internet-services, computer network measurements have gained considerable interest during recent years. Since they supply network research, development and operations with data important for network traffic modelling, performance and trend analysis, etc. READ MORE
