Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the current trends, implications and challenges of information systems (IS) related to omni-channel logistics. Design/methodology/approach: An exploratory survey study is conducted with 23 Swedish retail companies transforming to omni-channel logistics. The study investigates the retailers’ current situations regarding logistics IS as well as their

Abstract PURPOSE: To examine the prevalence and heredity of small hard drusen in 220 healthy twins aged 20-46 years. METHODS: Grayscale digital fundus photography, four-field 50 degrees nonstereoscopic, in red-free illumination was performed in 58 pairs of monozygotic (MZ) twins and 52 pairs of dizygotic (DZ) twins as part of a detailed biometric characterization.

AbstractPURPOSE: To report observations on the influence of posterior lens capsule opacification on optical coherence tomographic imaging quality and measurements of macular thickness. METHODS: The retrospective study included 13 eyes in 12 patients of which 2 eyes had a healthy macula and 11 eyes had maculopathy. In all eyes posterior lens capsule fibrosis was present. A clinical examination incl

The simulation model for secondary settling tanks by Bürger et al. (2013) was introduced mainly to resolve spatial discretization problems when both hindered settling and the phenomena of compression and dispersion are included. Straightforward time integration unfortunately means long computationaltimes. The next step in the development is to introduce and investigate time-integration methods for

Aims/hypothesis. With ageing the long-lived proteins of the human lens undergo denaturation by non-enzymatic glycation. The denaturated proteins are fluorescent, a property that can be assessed in vivo by fluorometry. Our aim was to examine the relative contribution of hereditary and environmental effects on the accumulation of fluorescent compounds in the lens.Methods. We examined 59 monozygotic

This contribution introduces a new perspective on the modelling of settling behaviour aimed at providing a unified description of the processes taking place both in primary and secondary settling tanks for a more detailed operation and control in Water and Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs). First, experimental evidence is provided pointing out the flocculation state of sludge as an important co
