IS, Process and Organizational Change and their Relationships to Contextual Dependencies

The paper seeks to explore critically specific issues relating to IS, process and organizational change. The authors suggest that IS development should be regarded as a particular case of organisational change – an emergent consequence of individual and organisational learning processes. Empowerment of individuals to express their values, goals and preferences within the political and social conte

The role of biogeophysical feedbacks and their impacts in the arctic and boreal climate system

De nordliga höga latitudernas fysiska miljö, inklusive kryosfären i Arktis, har genomgått dramatiska förändringar under de senaste decennierna tack vare uppvärmning och andra klimatförändringar kopplade till antropogena utsläpp av växthusgaser. Uppvärmningen i regionen är ungefär det dubbla jämfört med ökningen i medeltemperaturen globalt. Globala klimatmodeller förutspår att denna förstärkta uppvThe physical environment in the northern high latitudes including the Arctic cryosphere has undergone dramatic changes due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas warming, which since pre-industrial times has been twice or more the rate of global mean warming. Global climate models predict that this accelerated warming will continue for at least the next few decades. Meanwhile, the arctic and subarctic ve

Communication mediated by a powered wheelchair: People with profound cognitive disabilities

The Driving to Learn project explored what people with profound cognitive disabilities could achieve from practice in a joystick-operated powered wheelchair and what facilitated their eventual achievements. Grounded theory methodology was applied for a project involving 45 children and adults with profound cognitive disabilities, 64 with milder degrees of cognitive disabilities, and 17 infants w

Even though Aniba canelilla was studied before, new compounds were identified in this investigation. The different active compounds found in Iryanthera juruensis seems to

Design considerations of a floating-point ADC with embedded S/H

This paper presents the implementation and test results of a 10+5 bit 50 MS/s floating-point ADC, along with the design considerations. The combination of resistive weighting with identical chopped gain stages proved successful in gain, delay and offset matching. It demonstrated that the input referred thermal noise of the gain stages needs to aim for 15 bits, while the rest of the requirements su

etherSound - an interactive sound installation

This article describes the interactive instrument/sound installation etherSound and discusses its artistic and ethical implications. etherSound is a work in progress and the main intent is to create a vehicle for audience participation through the use of SMS (Short Message Service).

The Implementation of the Kyoto Targets in Lithuania from a Perspective of Multi-level Governance

Abstract in Uncoded languages Tarptautiniai klimato kaitos susitarimai ir Europos Sąjungos teisės aktai veikia skirtingus valdymo lygmenis, įskaitant nacionalines teisės sistemas ir administravimo modelius. Disertacijoje iškeltas tyrimo klausimas – Kaip Lietuva, konkrečiai pramonės sektorius, įgyvendina šiltnamio efektą sukeliančių dujų (toliau – ŠESD) emisijų mažinimo reikalavimus, nustatytus KioInternational climate change agreements and the European Union legislation have an influence on different levels of governance, including national legal systems and administrative schemes. The following research question is addressed in the doctoral dissertation: “How does Lithuania, specifically the industrial sector, implement GHG reduction requirements under the Kyoto Protocol and the European

Faktaförtätande eller stämningsförtätande? Om påstående huvudsatsekvivalenter i sakprosa

En genomgång av den terminologiska traditionen för det som i SAG kallas huvudsatsekvivalenter och sedan en närmare granskning av vilka typer av påstående sådana som används i sakprosa - och med vilka funktionella och stilistiska förtecken. Exempel ur bland annat turistbroschyrer ger belägg för både informationsförpackande och mer stämningsskapande användningar, liksom för replikefterliknande.
