One factor which can be expected to influence performance in applications where the user is expected to point a device in some direction to obtain information is the angle interval in which the user gets feedback. The present study was performed in order to get a better understanding of the influence of this angle interval on navigation performance. Results indicate that users are able to handle q
When the GREAT campaign was announced in 2011, we were still in theera of New Public Diplomacy, and were wrapped up in the potentialof digital media to change the diplomatic landscape. Interconnectedglobal publics were supposed to solve wicked global problems likeclimate change through inclusion and dialogue; by sharing knowledgeand working together to shape social change.

In strategic management, the concept of organizational capabilities appears in two sets of related literatures: the resource-based view and the dynamic capabilities approach. The resource-based view treats organizational capabilities as unitary factors that explain cross-sectional industry performance differentials. The dynamic capabilities approach, on the other hand, treats organizational capabi
Depending on specific configuration and design, a variety of physical phenomena is present in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). These processes include multi-component gas flow, energy and mass transfer of chemical species in composite domains and sites. Due to the electrochemical reactions, generation and consumption of chemical species together with electric current production are involved at the
This paper explores discourses in higher education viewing two pairs of concepts, on the one hand, the concepts of use- vs. exchange value and on the other, the concepts of deep vs. surface learning. Drawing on Yrjö Engeströms’ position of use- vs. exchange value, and his elaboration on the activity system, we assert that any component in an activity system combines two inherent forces which compe
The study investigates the changing growth pattern of 69 European regions measured at NUTS-level 2 between 1980 and 2002 by addressing the hypothesis of capital accumulation versus technological change as sources of convergence or divergence. The paper adds to the existing regional growth and convergence literature in three respects. First, regional estimates of capital stocks are constructed from
The Lewis (Le) blood group antigens are a set of fucosylated glycan structures. They are present as N- and O-linked structures on glycoproteins and as glycolipid-based structures on cell surfaces. Depending on the exact structure, the Lewis group is divided into four subgroups; Lea, Leb, Lex and Ley. Lex and Lea can further be sialylated and/or sulfonated. Among these, Lex has been found to be imp
The breakdown of traditional marine tenure systems and overexploitation of marine organisms as a result of rapid modernization, urbanization and population growth in the case of Tonga is outlined. The customary marine tenure system is described and the threats against the coral reefs are discussed. It is shown how accumulative strategies correlate with the move toward overexploitation. It is argue
This working paper will discuss how societal systems (technological, political, economic etc.) constitute boundaries and limitations for implementation- and legislation processes. Thus, the paper highlights the importance of understanding how political, economical, technological and systems affect and influence actions and strategies underlying an implementation- and regulation process (i.e. law/r
