This paper is a part of a doctoral study named “Leadership in a crisis”. This paper proposes a way to a) measure the human talent leadership and b) training the ability for leadership, regarding individuals as well as leadership teams. The same simulation should be used for measuring and training. The simulation system uses intelligent agents based on HLA, IEEE 1516, for easy scaling, interoperabi

In this paper a systematic study of the surface influence on the elastic properties of nanosized iron and tungsten wires and films is performed. Single crystal defect-free nanowires and nanofilms are examined through molecular statics simulations, and the concepts of surface energy and third order elastic constants are used in an attempt to describe the elastic properties. For structures where the re

Det finns ingen anledning att varna längre om en förestående generationsväxling och kommande kompetensförsörjningsproblem. Den tiden är nu! 40-talisterna har alla snart gått i pension samtidigt som personalomsättningen ökar på hela arbetsmarknaden. Kompetens inom fastighetsbranschen har blivit en färskvara som det nu finns för lite av då det också råder brist på utbildningsmöjligheter. Brukare a

Den italienske filosofen Giorgio Agamben (f. 1942) reflekterar i sin L'aperto (2002) över människans försök att skilja sig från djuren, att skilja det mänskliga från det djuriska även inom människan. I denna studie placerar jag in denna bok dels i Agambens övergripande biopolitiska projekt, Homo sacer, dels in den filosofiska strömning som kallas posthumanism. Syftet är att analysera distinktionen

This paper explores experimentally the effects of costly communication possibilities in market entry games. It is shown that these effects depend on whether entry costs are symmetric or asymmetric. In the former, but not the latter case, communication possibilities increase coordination success substantially and are likely to generate inferior outcomes for consumers. Furthermore, cost asymmetries

The Judeo-Christian tradition is a common cultural womb for many Westerners; in its literary registers travel replicates, metaphorically as well as metonymically, the story of creation: birth, living, death, or: Genesis, Exodus, the Final Judgment. Life – the exilic wandering forced upon Adam and Eve after the Fall – is an oft cited ‘first journey’ of humankind which transports a compelling ancest

In October 1989, a 24-year-old Kurdish immigrant from Iraq was brought before the Sandviken Lower Court in Sweden charged with assaulting, coercing and threatening his pregnant ex-girlfriend who had left him to live with another man. Although, the court found the defendant guilty as charged, it nevertheless released him on a suspended sentence and a fine of 3000 Swedish Kronor. Conviction on this
