    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Business model change; mature industries; low-tech; measuring change; typology; innovation.;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to contribute to a better understanding of the business model (BM) change concept. The study purpose is achieved through developing a context-specific method and framework to measure and characterize different types of BM changes. This work promotes the importance of context-specific studies in the field of BM. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structural change in the Swedish economy : empirical and methodological studies of changes in input-output structures

    Author : Göran Östblom; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This volume is a collection of five papers dealing with various aspects of the application of input-output techniques for analyzing structural and technical change. Chapter I is the first attempt to exploit systematically information about past changes in the Swedish production structure gained from inputoutput investigations for the years 1957, 1968, 1975 and 1980.

  5. 3. Novelty and change detection radiation physics experiments

    Author : Abbas Jabor; Thomas Lindblad; Örjan Skeppstedt; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the detection and analysis of low-level natural and induced radioactivity. Using high energy-resolution Ge detectors in low-level counting areas airborne radioactivity’s like Be-7 and Cs-137 have been investigated. The experimental facilities and techniques are described in some detail. READ MORE

  6. 4. Factors Affecting Rates of Change in Soil Bacterial Communities

    Author : Marie Pettersson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; Plant ecology; Växtekologi; bacteriology; Microbiology; DGGE; PLFA; TdR-incorporation; function; structure; tolerance; adaptation; pH; soil bacterial community; temperature;

    Abstract : The soil bacterial community is under the constant influence of its environment. Changing any of the factors affecting the bacterial community will induce a selection pressure which, with time, will change the community. In this work the effect of changing the temperature or pH on the soil bacterial community was studied. READ MORE

  7. 5. Measuring the impact of body functions on occupational performance : validation of the ADL-focused occupation-based neurobehavioral evaluation (A-ONE)

    Author : Guðrún Árnadóttir; Anne Fisher; Britta Löfgren; Erik Bautz-Holter; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; occupational therapy; Rasch measurement; activities of daily living; assessment; stroke; dementia; neurology; outcome; Occupational therapy; Arbetsterapi; arbetsterapi; Occupational therapy;

    Abstract : Background: Among the instruments commonly used by occupational therapists working in the area of rehabilitation of persons with neurological disorders are evaluations of both occupation, such as activities of daily living (ADL), and body functions. While persons with neurological diagnoses typically have symptoms that represent diminished neurobehavioral functions, the resulting pattern of neurobehavioral impairments affecting ADL performance often differs among diagnostic groups.
