Generative AI promises substantial productivity gains, but many initiatives fail. This column argues that outcomes depend on readiness, not technology alone. We examine AI transformation requirements across organizational, individual, and technological dimensions, highlighting why engineering practices, human factors, and strategic clarity determine success.
The study of relationship between well-being and living space is an actively expanding field across psychology, anthropology, history, archeology, architecture, interior design and philosophy. The human condition in relation to environmental factors has several scientific conclusions in terms of physical effect and mental health – green foliage, sunlight, certain proportions and ergonomic conditio
Denna uppsats undersöker den svenska tidningen Then Swänska Argus som gavs ut under åren 1732-1734. Tidningen undersöks med kontexten av en uppkomst av nationell identitet i Sverige under samma era. Uppsatsen undersöker hur Argus talar om Sverige och svenskarna, även samspelet mellan Argus och läsarna undersöks och Argus tilltal till läsarna undersöks. Uppsatsen undersöker om Argus bidrog till skaThis thesis examines the Swedish newspaper Then Swänska Argus published between the years 1732-1734 in the context of the emergence of a national identity during the same era. The thesis investigate how Argus talks about Sweden and the Swedes, as well as the interaction between the newspaper and the readers. Part of Benedict Anderson theory of the importance of the newspaper for a imagined communi
Since culture has been changing over the time in all of the societies, the notions of gender and sex-role stereotypes as two of the constitutive parts of culture have been altering as well; due to the development of contemporary movements such as feminism and gender-related discourses. Nevertheless, because of different social environments and different rituals and values the development pace and
Title: Improving the packaging material availability for internal testing - A case study at Tetra Pak Keywords: Supply chain management, process mapping, procurement, visibility, order handling, supply chain information systems. Background: For any business, optimizing the supply chain is beneficial and can be a crucial competitive advantage. Additionally, the significance of optimization is eve
The healthcare systems of today are facing large challenges, with increasing amounts of patients and overworked hospital staff. Prostate cancer and Alzheimer’s disease are two of the most prevalent diseases, with incidence numbers expected to rise over the coming decade. Medical imaging plays a central role in current diagnostic procedures for these diseases, enabling the potential use of machine-
Abstract – Introduction: – Spinal disorders are among the biggest contributors to health care utilization (HCU).Objective: – To develop and externally validate a prediction model for high all-cause HCU (75th percentile during 1 year after the index date) among patients with spinal disorders visiting multidisciplinary secondary care clinics.Methods: – We developed and internally validated the model
The PID controller is the by far most frequently employed type of controller. As you read, billions of digitally implemented PID controllers are running, shaping the dynamic behavior of anything from the fan speed in your laptop to safety-critical components in nuclear power plants. Given the abundance of commissioned PID controllers, it is surprisingly hard to find a single source that provides a
A quarter of ischaemic strokes are lacunar subtype, typically neurologically mild, usually resulting from intrinsic cerebral small vessel pathology, with risk factor profiles and outcome rates differing from other stroke subtypes. This European Stroke Organisation (ESO) guideline provides evidence-based recommendations to assist with clinical decisions about management of lacunar ischaemic stroke
Domain-specific languages are used in numerous problem domains, e.g. database handling, robot programming and numerical calculations. The main advantage of using such languages is the ease with which a problem within the domain can be expressed in the language. The resulting programs are easier to debug and maintain, and consist of higher quality code since the language constructs are close to the
In this issue, “25 Years Ago” revisits the article “Out of Control Because of Harmonics: An Analysis of the Harmonic Response of an Inverter Locomotive,” by Erik Möllerstedt and Bo Bernhardsson, in IEEE Control Systems Magazine, vol. 20, no. 4, pp. 70–81. Below is an excerpt from the article.
This paper addresses the path-tracking problem of time-optimal trajectories under model uncertainties, by proposing a real-time predictive scaling algorithm. The algorithm is formulated as a convex optimization problem, designed to balance the trade-off between improving feasibility and time optimality of a trajectory. The predicted trajectory is scaled based on the presence of path segments that
This study investigates how changes in temperature affect the secondary organic aerosol (SOA) phase state. SOA was formed by α-pinene ozonolysis in an atmospheric simulation chamber at temperatures (T0) in the range of 257–283 K at RH0< 20%. After more than 14 h of SOA aging, one or more heating and cooling ramps were performed. Upon heating, we observe that the onset of evaporative SOA shrinkage
Popular Abstract in Swedish Artros är den vanligaste ledsjukdomen i världen, och orsakar ledvärk och stelhet. Artros leder till försvagning av brosket och sedermera förlust av allt större mängder belastat ledbrosk. För närvarande är vanlig röntgen den gyllene standarden för att diagnostisera knäartros. Dock är sjukdomsförloppet ofta väldigt långt framskridet när broskförändringar börjar synas på rOsteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder worldwide, causing joint pain and stiffness. The current gold standard for diagnosing knee OA is radiography. However, the disease has often progressed well beyond the point of no return once radiographic cartilage changes become visible. Identifying changes in cartilage at an early stage of OA would allow curative or prophylactic treatment to
Popular Abstract in Swedish Byggnadsprestanda – Metoder för förbättrad prediktering och verifiering av energianvändning och inneklimat Hans Bagge, Byggnadsfysik LTH Introduktion För att kunna minska utsläpp av växthusgaser och rädda klimatet på jorden är det av yttersta vikt att vi kan bygga byggnader med låg energianvändning och bra inneklimat. Byggnader står i dagsläget för mellan 30 och 40 %Reducing CO2 emissions is one of the most important goals in Europe as well as the rest of the world. To reach that goal, the use of energy must be reduced. Thus, the building industry is facing a great challenge. Not only energy efficiency but also sustainability is desirable in the building stock. This thesis presents and suggests methods that can be used to improve prediction and verification o
Title: Exploring Coordination Mechanisms and Product Characteristics for Food Waste Reduction Principles: A Case Study in Physical Distribution Author: Zacharias Samuelsson Thesis supervisor: Eva Berg, Faculty of Engineering at Lund University Thesis Purpose: Identify food waste causes in a global distribution network and develop an improvement proposal for minimizing food waste. Method: This
The aim of this analysis has been to investigate how the books Osebol (2019), Samlade verk (2020) and Eufori (2021) have been received and treated on the Swedish book market, while focusing on how these books are being associated with high-quality literature while at the same time being debut books. A case study has been carried out in four different time periods of these books’ lifespan, from adm
I den här uppsatsen undersöks fyra svenska översättningar av Edgar Allan Poes novell ”The Fall of the House of Usher” (1839) ur ett stilistiskt perspektiv. Målet med undersökningen är dels att se hur källtexttrogen respektive översättning är, dels att beskriva de olika översättarstilarna. Översättningsanalysen föregås av en text- och stilanalys, i vilken novellens stilbärande drag exemplifieras oc
