It has been suggested that those organizations which have greatest competitive success are those in which information systems strategy is seen as integral to overall business strategy. Thus, the CIO is seen as a full member of the management team, and not as someone presiding over a separate functional area which provides a service to the rest. There is a need therefore for businesses to avoid suc

Popular Abstract in Swedish Är det möjligt att det pågår en hård kamp under våra fötter när vi tar en promenad i den Skånska lövskogen? Oftast tänker man på ett positivt förhållande mellan växter och marken's bakterier och svampar, där den autotrofa växten omvandlar luften's kol (C), i form av koldioxid, till organiskt C som därigenom blir tillgängligt för mikroorganismerna. Mikroorganismerna bryCompetition between and within species has been one of the most studied concepts in ecology. In this thesis the aim was to test the idea of plant-microbial competition for N and, by studying this interaction, to gain a better understanding of different N processes in soil. The research carried out seeks to investigate plant-microbial competition for N based on the definition that competition only

Boken emanerar ur ett antal delstudier av chefsarbete, identitet och organisation som vi i organisationsgruppen vid Företagsekonomiska institutionen, Lunds universitet, har bedrivit under snart ett decennium.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Inom en art finns individer av olika kvalitet dvs. med olika förmåga att föra sina gener vidare till nästa generation. Förutom genetiska skillnader, kan sådana kvalitetsskillnader bero på miljömässigt orsakad variation. Av speciellt intresse är effekter som uppstår genom att den tidiga uppväxtmiljön varierar. Dessa effekter har föreslagits vara av vikt för fåglars överlVariation in growth conditions during ontogeny may result in permanent differences in individual quality. This thesis focuses on how starlings are affected by environmental variation during the nestling period. Both landscape differences in food availability and experimental food supplementation affected survival and growth of nestlings. During benign conditions, nestlings reached a larger morphol

Detta kapitel är en vidareutveckling av några av mina analyser av hur ”politik nerifrån” kan påverka historien och av spelfilmens roll i skapandet av historiemedvetande. De tidigare studierna är “Building Civil Society and Democracy East of Elbe: Problems and Prospects”, i Sven Eliaeson, (ed.) Building Civil Society and Democracy East of Elbe, (utkommer 2006), ”’The past is never dead.’ The Histor

In this paper we explore, by means of three pilot observational studies using virtual objects, how direct perception through action of multi-sensory audiovisual and haptic object properties support the creation of new categories of believable and plausible objects than can be perceived as being different from those that were presented The three experiments are based on variations of “Pebble boxes”
