  1. 6. Strategic Objectives in Complex Planning Environments : Insights from a Swedish Case for Critical Infrastructure Protection

    Author : Christine Große; Aron Larsson; Olof Björkqvist; Pär M. Olausson; Henrik Tehler; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Systemic Thinking; Soft Operations Research; design-oriented Information Systems Research; Governance; Complex Systems; Critical Infrastructure Protection; Largescale Planning; Multi-level Planning; Strategic Management;

    Abstract : Large-scale and long-term planning imposes extensive requirements on governance efforts regardless of whether it involves public organisations, private organisations, or both. The proportions of such planning entangle many actors and stakeholders as system components within and around a complex system. READ MORE

  2. 7. Development of competence in biochemical experimental work : Assessment of complex learning at university level

    Author : Christina Bergendahl; Lena Tibell; Lisbeth Lundahl; Lars-Owe Dahlgren; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Teaching; experimental work; laboratory based project work; open experiments; biochemistry; life science; university level; action research; course design; aims and objectives; assessment; formative assessment; competence; complex learning; Didaktik; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Biochemistry is part of life science: a fast developing multidisciplinary area. The overall aims of this thesis and the work underlying it were to find ways in which to develop competence in biochemistry at university level and to assess complex learning. A particular interest was the development of experimental work as a means to promote learning. READ MORE

  3. 8. Critical Scaling in Particle Systems and Random Graphs

    Author : Vasilii Goriachkin; Matematisk statistik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dissipative force; particles collisions; random graphs; random walks; martingales; geometric random graphs; neural networks; critical scaling; diffusion approximation;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to study the behavior of macro-systems through their micro-parameters. In particular, we are interested in finding critical scaling in various models.Paper I investigates the influence of discrete-time collisions on particle dynamics. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis, within the subfield of computer science known as computer vision, deals with the use of scale-space analysis in early low-level processing of visual information. The main contributions comprise the following five subjects:The formulation of a scale-space theory for discrete signals. READ MORE

  5. 10. Multi-level Interactions between Fisheries and Trade : Modeling intertwined social-ecological systems

    Author : Laura G. Elsler; Schlüter Maja; Florian Diekert; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; multi-level interactions; social-ecological model; trade relationships; complexity; inequality in fisheries; fisheries sustainability; seafood trade; international markets; fisheries collapse; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Sustainable and equitable fisheries are central for addressing the challenges of the UN Sustainable Development Goal 14: Life Below Water. International trade, once presented by Walrasian economists as a panacea for fisheries development, has not markedly decreased poverty and has been related to the overexploitation of marine species.
