Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are rapidly becoming a de facto standard in business activity. While large and medium-sized companies have the luxury to afford proprietary ERP solutions, small companies are struggling with resource poverty which maybe makes them consider available open source ERP products which are free from licensing fee. However, there is little knowledge available on

Popular Abstract in Swedish Höftfraktur är en vanlig skada, som huvudsakligen drabbar äldre kvinnor, och oftast orsakas av ett ringa våld. Det är vanlig orsak till funktionsnedsättning, sjuklighet och dödlighet hos de äldre. Både incidensen (antal nya fall per antal innevånare och år) av höftfrakturer och det totala antalet har ökat de senaste årtiondena. Höftfrakturer medför stora kostnader för sHip fractures are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in elderly patients, with a high risk of functional impairment and institutionalization. The incidence and number of hip fractures have increased during the recent decades and hip fractures consume considerable health-care resources. The incidence of hip fractures in Malmö, Sweden, 1992–95, is described in Paper I. The annual incidence pe

What does love have to do with gaming? As games have grown in complexity, they have increasingly included narratives that seek to engage players with love in a variety of ways. While media attention often focuses on violent emotions and behavior in gaming, love has always been central to the experience. We love to play games, we have titles that we love, and sometimes we love too much or love terr

The intrastriatal 6-hydroxydopamine lesion model in rats is particularly useful in studies testing new therapeutic strategies for Parkinson’s disease. This thesis work (1) describes the characterization of the motor deficits after different types of intrastriatal lesions and identifies the four-site terminal lesion as a model of symptomatic Parkinson’s disease; (2) using the same model, provides e

Utgångspunkten för denna behandling av Kristofferbilden är dess mellanställning, mellan representationsbild i Panofskys betydelse och legendserie, dess visande av en handling i en enda bild, och att grtaden av handling i bilden tycks skifta mellan olika perioder. Jag uppfattar handlingen som ett attribut, och söker utforska hur det blivit så, och varför just i detta fall. Eftersom handlingen i sig

Network re-optimization is a process that must be triggered periodically in order to improve the inefficient resource allocation of online routing heuristics due to the uncertainty of online lightpath demand arrivals and departures. Network re-optimization involves two tasks: a) finding new lightpaths for a (sub)set of current demands, i.e. rerouting, and b) migrating the current traffic to the ne

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning (Popularised summary in Swedish) Beta-microseminoprotein är ett äggviteämne (protein) som först hittades i sädesvätska (seminalplasma). Det är inte känt vad det har för funktion. Man känner i dag inte till någon som har brist på Beta-microseminoprotein eller någon sjukdom som beror på Beta-microseminoprotein. Den genetiska arvsmassan Human Beta-microseminoprotein is a 94 amino acid protein with 10 cysteins present in seminal plasma and on many mucosal surfaces in the body. The function of the protein is unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to study the distribution of Beta-microseminoprotein in the human body, especially in the stomach. The latter was studied under both normal and pathological conditions. A radioimmu

In the mid 2000s the oil and gas industry was hit by what might be best described as a ‘wall of cash’ as oil prices successively reached new record levels and access to external financing improved greatly. In this article we investigate what this sudden abundance of liquidity implied for the investment-cash flow relationship, the interpretation of which continues to generate controversy in the fin

The technical infrastructures of the society are becoming more and more interconnected and in-terdependent, i.e. the function of an infrastructure influences the function of other infrastructures. Distur-bances in one infrastructure therefore often traverse to other dependent infrastructures and possibly even back to the infrastructure where the failure originated. It is becoming increasingly impo
