Purpose – Supply chains evolve and change in size, shape and configuration, and in how they are coordinated, controlled and managed. Some supply chains are mature and relatively unchanging. Some are subject to significant change. New supply chains may emerge and evolve for a variety of reasons.The purpose of this paper is to examine the nature of supply chain evolution and address the question “Wh

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the value chain processes that represent the “black box” between supply logistics integration and competitive operational performance in firms. To realize this objective, the authors develop a research model which comprises a series of linkages from supply logistics integration to operational outcomes using Porter’s concept of value chain and the r

We investigate the relationship between product and supply chain architectures. Both products and supply chains can have modular as well as integral designs. We synthesize previous research on both product and supply chain architectures and explore this relationship in a multi-method study, including a survey of 82 manufacturing firms and a multiple-case study of ten products and their respective

In this paper, we propose a time-recursive multipitch estimation algorithm using a sparse reconstruction framework, assuming that only a few pitches from a large set of candidates are active at each time instant. The proposed algorithm does not require any training data, and instead utilizes a sparse recursive least-squares formulation augmented by an adaptive penalty term specifically designed to

Post Conflict Futures is an ongoing project, where displaced Syrian academics meet in Visioning Labs and a global scenario group to jointly reflect on possible future developments and to look for actionable leverage points to work proactively for sustainable transitions. The collective visioning aims to identify aspects that may be critical in strategies for sustainable post conflict reconstructio

Humlesugan, Betonica officinalis L., är en avden skandinaviska florans sällsyntaste växteroch samtidigt en av de arter som har denlängsta dokumenterade historien. Den rapporteradesfrån Stehag väster om Ringsjön i Skåneav Christiern Pedersen redan 1534, Skånesäldsta litteraturuppgift där en växtart knytstill en lokal. I övriga Danmark beskrevs denmed lokaluppgift första gången av Peder LauridsenKyl

Hohe Tauern i Österrike är en av Europas vackrastenationalparker. I det artrika alplandskapet finnsbåde helt skyddade områden och zoner där bl.a.boskapsskötsel och bergsbruk tillåts.

To promote attainment and inclusion, Sweden offers tuition in migrant pupils’ mother tongues as a regular school subject. However, the formulation of learning aims is problematic, and resources allocated to the subject do not correspond to ambitions expressed in steering documents. This case study presents an analysis of the organization of Mother Tongue Studies at a highly diverse urban primary s
