Trends influencing information sharing in supply chains

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify and describe trends that can potentially influence information sharing in supply chains in 2025. Design/methodology/approach The empirical data was gathered from twelve semi-structured interviews with individuals representing different retail supply chains actors as well as senior consultants and academics, and an employee of the Swedish Government

Den nya svenska filmen : kultur, kriminalitet & kakofoni

Den nya svenska filmen följer de senaste årens utveckling i den svenska filmkulturen. Oerhört mycket har hänt. Aldrig någonsin tidigare har svenskarna tittat så mycket på rörliga bilder. I boken ställs frågor om vithet, brott, främlingskap, sexualitet, funktionshinder och det rämnande folkhemmet i filmer om allt från Sverige under andra världskriget till den nya politiska samtiden i Millennium-tri

The Development of Gender Attribution and Gender Agreement in French

This study aims to explore the development in child and adult grammars of a noun-related feature in French, namely gender. In brief, previous research has shown that gender assignment and gender agreement in a language such as French is just as easy for the mono- or bilingual child (Carroll, 1989; Clark, 1985; Müller, 1990, 1994) as it is difficult for the (adult) L2 learner (Bartning, 2000; Carro

Refuge from climate change-related harm: Evaluating the scope of international protection within the Common European Asylum System

Extreme weather events have the potential to cause serious harm and can contribute to displacement. Such events are expected to increase in frequency and/or intensity as a consequence of climate change. It is therefore of concern that there is widely considered to be a protection gap when affected individuals cross an international border. However, apart from a handful of cases in Australia and Ne

Metastability of persistent currents in trapped gases of atoms

We examine the conditions that give rise to metastable, persistent currents in a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate. A necessary condition for the stability of persistent currents is that the trapping potential is not a monotonically increasing function of the distance from the trap center. Persistent currents also require that the interatomic interactions are sufficiently strong and repulsive. Fina

Simple Linear Feedback and Extremum Seeking Control of GDI Engines

A novel approach to the control of a GDI engine is presented.Conventional control of car engines is normally based on extensive use of engine maps, i.e., matrix-based lookup tables that have been derived through extensive engine test bench experiments. This is an open loop approach which can be sensitive to engine-to-engine variations and variations due to aging and wear. In this paper it is shown

Metonymization : A key mechanism in semantic change

Despite a sizable functional literature on variation and change, very little attention has been given to the diachronic mechanisms of meaning shifts and change covering the whole continuum from contentful to configurational meanings. This chapter is an attempt to begin filling this gap. It proposes a unitary approach to the mechanisms of variation and change within the Cognitive Linguistics framew
