The capital cost of holding inventory - A real options approach
This thesis is based on three scientific papers dealing with costs and financial risks associated with keeping stock. Reasonable cost parameters are important to implement an effective inventory control system, which in turn is one of the key activities in logistics management. All three papers consider a single-level inventory system. Single-period, multi-period as well as continuous review syste

Market-Oriented Programming and its Application to Power Load Management
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen studerar en ny programmeringsmetod, kallad marknads-orienterad programmering, och undersöker hur den kan användas i praktiska tillämpningar.Market-oriented programming is a new approach to design and implementation of resource allocation mechanisms in computer systems. It has its roots in different disciplines, such as economics and computer science (in particular the area of multi-agent systems). This thesis is divided into two different parts, focusing on: 1) central foundations and mechanisms of market-oriented programming, and 2)
A Tool for Utility Disturbance Management
Disturbances in the supply of utilities may lead to large economical losses at industrial sites. In order to take appropriate decisions on for which utilities improvement efforts should be made, a tool for evaluating the economical effects of utility disturbances is needed. This paper presents a tool for quickly estimating the revenue loss caused by each utility, using simple matrix operations. A

Structural guarantees for the state aid field. The community's last best hope against national arbitrariness
In line with current tendencies of ‘new modes of governance’, this essay introduces judicial tools, which strike a balance between the respect for national autonomy in individual assessments and the effective implementation of Community law. The balance is struck through the demands of structural guarantees; administrative safeguards, which weed out arbitrary national decision-making. These admini
Förändring i ett skandinaviskt perspektiv
Inom ämnet organisationsteori är studier av planerade förändringar vanliga, dels därför att dagens organisationer är mycket förändringsbenägna, dels för att vi som studerar organisationer tycker att det är viktigt att förstå varför och hur förändringar sker. Syftet med plaerade förändringsprocesser kan vara att utöka eller dra ner på verksamheten, att effektivisera och öka produktivitet och kvalit
Personnel Resistance in Public Professional Service Mergers: The Merging of Two National Audit Organizations
The human side of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) – with focus particularly on resistance - has puzzled scholars for decades. Still, there is little discussion as regards to how the concept should be defined or understood. Often expressions of resistance, rather than its actual content, are described. What do personnel actually oppose? In this dissertation, the content, process, and context of
A "deep" ice core from east Greenland
Pilot studies on the Renland peninsula in Scoresbysund Fjord, East Greenland, indicated that the relatively small and separate Renland ice cap meets most of the criteria defining a favourable ice-core drill-site. In 1988, a Nordic expedition recovered a continuous surface-to-bedrock ice core from the summit. This relatively short core reaches deep into the past, probably throughout the last glacia
Critical Management Research : Reflections from the Field
The emergence of Critical Management Studies (CMS) reflects a growing body of scholars within the management research community who are recognised for their philosophical or theoretical work, as well as undertaking empirical research. The majority of published texts on research methods do not focus particularly on critical managementresearch, or if they do, they focus more on paradigms and perspec
Tissue reactions to biomaterials
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det blir allt vanligare att man ersätter förlorade och skadade kroppsdelar med ett biomaterial (vanligtvis ett metall eller polymer implantat). Exempel på vanliga användningsområden är; suturer, kärl, hjärtklaffar, pacemakers, katetrar, ledproteser, fixationsskruvar för skelett och konstgjorda tänder samt kapslar för långsam frisättning av medicin. Trots det rutinmässigThe biological response to different implanted biomaterials vary. The relative importance of factors in the material and host for this variation are at present incompletely known. The variation in the cellular response to specific proteins and the rapid adsorption of proteins to surfaces exposed to biological environments has created the hypothesis that the cellular interactions with biomaterials
