2. 1. Automated Bottleneck Analysis of Production Systems : Increasing the applicability of simulation-based multi-objective optimization for bottleneck analysis within industry

   Author : Jacob Bernedixen; Amos H. C. Ng; Anna Syberfeldt; Kalyanmoy Deb; Leif Pehrsson; Magnus Wiktorsson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bottleneck analysis; bottleneck identification; bottleneck improvement; multi-objective optimization; simulation; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

   Abstract : Manufacturing companies constantly need to explore new management strategies and new methods to increase the efficiency of their production systems and retain their competitiveness. It is of paramount importance to develop new bottleneck analysis methods that can identify the factors that impede the overall performance of their productionsystems so that the optimal improvement actions can be performed.

4. 2. Quantitative genetic variation in declining plant populations

   Author : Maarten Ellmer; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Saxifraga granulata; Briza media; Nigella degenii; bottleneck; Inbreeding depression; founder effects; drift; quantitative genetic; diversifying selection; habitat fragmentation; small populations;

   Abstract : The ecological and genetic effects of habitat fragmentation are an issue of major concern in current conservation biology. Habitat fragmentation results in smaller habitat areas and as a consequence smaller and more isolated populations. Many habitats have become fragmented through human activities such as forestry and agricultural development. READ MORE

5. 3. Population Fragmentation and Genetic Variation in Grouse

   Author : Jobs Karl Larsson; Jacob Höglund; Stuart B. Piertney; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Bonasa sewerzowi; bottleneck; genetic drift; genetic variation; inbreeding; isolation; microsatellites; population structure; Tetrao tetrix; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

   Abstract : In this thesis the genetic variation of two grouse species, the Chinese grouse (Bonasa sewersowi) and the Black grouse (Tetrao tetrix) was examined with neutral genetic markers: microsatellites. Habitat fragmentation and isolation leads to structuring among and loss of genetic variation within populations. READ MORE

6. 4. Biodiversity in Swedish Cyprinid Fish: Insights Into Processes of Divergence

   Author : Marnie H Demandt; Mats Björklund; Erik Petersson; Brent Emerson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; speciation; hybridization; bottleneck; genetic drift; phylogeny; speciation rates; common bream; white bream; roach; Swedish cyprinid fish; Cyprinidae; Biology; Biologi;

   Abstract : Uncovering and understanding the processes that have led to the biological diversity we observe today are of fundamental interest in biology. Since direct observation of speciation is usually impossible, knowledge about the processes behind species formation can be gathered by studying mutations, natural/sexual selection, and genetic drift.

7. 5. Innovation Markets and Competition Analysis - EU competition law and US antitrust law

   Author : Marcus Glader; Juridiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; R D asset; R D; potential competition; intellectual property; innovation market; innovation competition; future markets; foreclosure; dynamic efficiency; competition law; bottleneck; antitrust law; barriers to entry; technology base; technology market; European law; EU-rätt;

   Abstract : Innovation issues are increasingly highlighted in public policy, including competition policy. Not only is innovation a major factor behind economic growth in society, it is also increasingly shaping market conditions and affecting market participants’ behaviour. READ MORE
