From inclusive to nonclusive design : a shift in categorisation

The background to this article is an interest in what categorisations such as ‘persons with or without disability’ create in terms of inequality and stigma, and how categorisations can support the implementation of Universal Design (UD). The article aims to show how a shift in categorisation can lead to a shift in the conceptualisation of UD, from “inclusive” to “nonclusive” design, i.e., to desig

Contracting for Logistics Services: A Critical Appraisal of the Outsourcing Process

This chapter seeks to critically revisit existing third party logistics (3PL) purchasing literature with the aim of bridging the gap between academic research and industry practice regarding logistics outsourcing. This is achieved by focusing on hitherto under-emphasized issues (in the academic literature) relating to the role of the service provider, as opposed to that of the buyer, in 3PL exchan

Pluralistic Ignorance : A Case for Social Epistemology and Epistemic Logic

In this paper the phenomenon of pluralistic ignorance is discussed and it is argued why it is of relevance for epistemic logic and social psychology. Roughly put, pluralistic ignorance is the case when a group of interacting agents all experience a discrepancy between their private opinions and the perceived opinions of the others. After introducing the phenomenon, numerous features of pluralistic

Extracting information about vegetation seasons in Africa from pathfinder AVHRR NDVI imagery using temporal filtering and least-squares fits to asymmetric Gaussian functions

Time-series of NASA/NOAA Pathfinder AVHRR Land (PAL) data have been analysed to extract parameters describing the seasonality of vegetation in Africa. Two methods have been developed to fit smooth curves to the time-series. The first method is based on an adaptive Savitzky-Golay filtering technique, and the second on non-linear least-squares fits of asymmetric Gaussian model functions. Both proces

Uthålliga VA-system - internationella erfarenheter av organisationsformer och drivkrafter i en VA-sektor i utveckling

The report describes and analysis the water and sewerage system in five European countries from a resource based view I denna rapport intresserar vi oss för begreppet ’uthållighet’ (sustainability) inom ramen för vatten- och avloppsverksamheter. Utgångspunkten är emellertid varken teknisk eller ekologisk utan denna studie görs utifrån ett strategi- och organisationsperspektiv. Ambitionen är att t

Memory Power Management for Java Processors Using Heap Partitioning and Power Gating

Power consumption is an important design parameter for battery operated devices, and an especially sensitive issue in embedded Java systems. This paper presents a solution to reduce leakage power consumption of the heap memory characteristic of Java processors. By partitioning the heap into several memory banks and taking advantage of a compacting garbage collector, our method dynamically powers o
