  2. 1. Lighting Control Systems to Save Energy in the non-Residential Sector : State-of-the-art, Field Studies, and Simulations

    Author : Niko Gentile; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Indoor lighting; lighting control system; lighting control; energy sav; energy eff; user acceptan; degree of acceptance; human factor; occupancy strategy; presence strategy; absence strategy; daylight harvesting; daylight-linked; daylight; photoelectric dimming; photosensor; manual switch; functional illumination; standby;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the energy-saving potential for lighting when using traditional indoor LCSs in non-residential buildings. In the study, an overarching theoretical framework is used that distinguishes between energy efficiency and energy saving, as well as between energy use for lighting and functional illumination.

  4. 2. Differentiated Supply Chain Strategy - Response to a fragmented and complex market

    Author : Per Hilletofth; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Supply chain management; strategies; differentiation; globalization; complexity; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi; Technology; Teknik;

    Abstract : Supply Chain Management (SCM) aims to synchronize the requirements of customers with the flow of materials from suppliers, in order to satisfy the needs of the customers as costefficiently as possible. This has become a difficult task due to several developments in the market, such as increased competition, increased demand variability, increased product variety, increased amounts of customer-specific products, and shortening product life cycles.

  5. 3. Segmentation and differentiation in defence supply chain design : A dynamic purchasing portfolio model for defence procurement

    Author : Thomas Ekström; Per Hilletofth; Alastair Finlan; Per Skoglund; Lisa Ellram; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; purchasing portfolio model; segmentation and differentiation; segmentation model; supply chain strategy; military logistics; defence procurement; defence supply chain design; modified Delphi study; portföljmodell; segmentering och differentiering; segmenterings-modell; försörjningsstrategi; militär logistik; försvarsanskaffning; utformning av militära försörjningskedjor; modifierad Delphistudie; Krigsvetenskap; War Studies;

    Abstract : An important priority in the current Swedish Defence Bill is to increase the operational warfighting capability of the Swedish Armed Forces, which has implications for the defence supply chain. A recent study suggested that the Swedish Armed Forces should use segmentation of supplies and differentiation of supply chains to enable an affordable supply chain design (SCD). READ MORE

  6. 4. Characterization of Retinal Progenitor Cells : Focus on Proliferation and the GABAA Receptor System

    Author : Henrik Ring; Finn Hallböök; Per Söderberg; Andras Simon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Regeneration; Proliferation; Neurotransmitters; Müller cells; Differentiation; Retinal repair; Neurogenesis; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : One strategy to repair an injured or degenerated retina is to stimulate the replacement of damaged or dead neurons with cells derived from endogenous stem- or progenitor cells. A successful strategy requires knowledge about how the proliferation and differentiation of the endogenous cells are regulated. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mechanisms of Transgene Silencing in Neural Cells -Implications for Ex Vivo Gene Therapy to the Brain

    Author : Nina Rosenqvist; Neurobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurophysiology; Neurologi; Neurology; neuropsychology; ChIP; rat; transgene; insulator; differentiation; GFP; lentivirus; DNA methylation; histone deacetylation; chromatin; expression; silencing; stem cell; progenitor; gene therapy; neurofysiologi; neuropsykologi; CNS; transplantation;

    Abstract : The use of genetically modifi ed neural stem and progenitor cells could possibly be a future strategy for repairing a brain suffering from neurodegeneration. However, so far it has proven diffi cult to maintain sufficient levels of a transferred gene in suitable cell types, after transplantation. READ MORE
