  2. 21. Computational and Visual Tools for Geospatial Multi-Criteria Decision-Making

    Author : Goran Milutinovic; Stefan Seipel; Ulla Ahonen-Jonnarth; S. Anders Brandt; Gennady Andrienko; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geographic information systems; multi-criteria decision-making; interactive visualization; even swaps; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; Intelligent industri; Intelligent Industry;

    Abstract : Geospatial multi-criteria decision-making usually concerns quasi-continuous choice models, with the number of alternatives constrained only by the limits of the used representation model. This sets high demands on the decision-making methods used in the context. READ MORE

  4. 22. Planning Design Automation Systems - Criteria and Guidelines

    Author : Mikael Cederfeldt; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Synthesis; Potential; Variant design; Design automation; Need; Process maturity; Planning; and Evaluation.;

    Abstract : Design automation can be a powerful tool in the continuous endeavour to cut lead times, workloads, and, ultimately, costs in order to become more competitive in an increasingly globalised market. Identifying a need for design automation is, consequently, not difficult. What becomes a lot more difficult is identifying the actual need, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 23. Multi-Criteria Optimization of System Integration Testing

    Author : Sahar Tahvili; Markus Bohlin; Franz Wotawa; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Software Testing; Optimization; Integration Testing; Decision Support System; Dependency; Test Scheduling; Requirement Coverage; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Optimizing software testing process has received much attention over the last few decades. Test optimization is typically seen as a multi-criteria decision making problem. One aspect of test optimization involves test selection, prioritization and execution scheduling. READ MORE

  6. 24. Design of concrete pavements : design criteria for plain and lean concrete

    Author : Johan Söderqvist; Johan Silfwerbrand; Anders Lenngren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : New road infrastructure projects are important and constitute of large investments that have to serve the society for a long time. The investments have to be durable at the lowest life cycle cost and the pavements have to sustain loads from increasing traffic intensity and heavy traffic loads. READ MORE

  7. 25. Improving the quality of caesarean section in a low-resource setting : An intervention by criteria-based audit at a tertiary hospital, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

    Author : Andrew Hans Mgaya; Birgitta Essén; Hussein Kidanto; Lennarth Nyström; Jeroen van Dillen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Caesarean section; Criteria-based audit; Fetal distress; Obstructed labour; Low resource setting; Robson classification; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Abstract : A sharp increase in caesarean section (CS) rates at the Muhimbili National Referral Hospital (MNH) – a tertiary referral hospital in Tanzania – by 50% in 2000–2011, was associated with concomitant increase in maternal complications and deaths and inconsistent improvement in newborn outcomes. The aims of this thesis were to explore care providers’ in-depth perspective of the reasons for these high rates of CS, and to evaluate and improve standards of care for the most common indica-tions of CS, obstructed labour and fetal distress, which are also major causes of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.
