Utveckling av en ljudsimulator med anva?ndarcentrerad design : Tilla?mpad matematik fo?r ba?ttre konsertupplevelse
The company Sound Precision has developed a new Line Array loudspeaker system (VHA-40). When using this system, their customers need computer aid to get the best possible sound-quality and control of sound levels for the whole audience. The aim of this thesis is to develop a truly useful sound quality simulator for the VHA-40. The system will help the sound engineers to position the loudspeakers for optimal sound by simulating loudspeaker configurations and visualizing the resulting sound quality and quantity. To solve this a human-centered design (HCD) approach is taken to implement a system that is truly useful for the users, meaning that they will use it more and hence deliver better sound for the audience.

Leaf area index in Vittelaria Paradoxa parklands in Burkina Faso estimated by light interception and leaf sampling
Burkina Faso as well as most sub-Saharan African countries struggle with providing food for a fast growing population. The dominating farming system is agroforestry parklands. Agroforestry parklands can broadly be defined as areas where scattered trees occur on farmlands as a result of selective clearing. The presence of trees in crop fields may in the long term have a positive effect on the production of annual crops. It is commonly discussed, but not proven, that the presence of trees leads to increased groundwater recharge due to higher infiltration capacity of the soil.
Design management i produktutvecklingsföretag : Samarbetet mellan en design manager och en designkonsult
Design management är ett arbetssätt som har börjat tillämpas av allt fler företag de senaste åren, men det kan fortfarande vara svårt att förstå betydelsen av design management. I uppsatsen undersöks det vilken betydelse en design managers kompetens och position har för samarbetet mellan det designköpande företaget och en designkonsult under ett designinköp. Genom ett flertal intervjuer, utifrån både design managers och designkonsulters perspektiv, undersöks det hur samarbetet fungerar mellan dessa parter. En analys av intervjumaterial med hjälp av en teoretisk referensram bestående av design management-teori, design som en integrerad process och beslutsrollsteori har lett fram till ett antal slutsatser om design management. Några av slutsatserna är att design management, enligt teorierna, som arbetssätt inte är så vanligt och att det finns en viss samarbetsbrist enligt de intervjuade designkonsulterna, som i viss mån underlättas om design managern har kunskap om vad design innebär..
Motivation för kreativitet : - En studie om hur ledare kan påverka produktiviteten i svenska medieproducerande företag
Since the mid 1900s the organizational perspective in media producing companies has changed. The focus has shifted from just being a laborer to the person behind the effort. The most important for an efficient and smooth organization is the motivation of the employees and the social working environment. Former research argues that managers must be coaches and that crucial factors for the survival of organizations are creativity, innovation and adaptability. With this study we investigate what motivates employees to use their creative skills.

Utveckling av det förebyggande underhållet vid
chokladpralinlinjen
I Upplands Väsby utanför Stockholm tillverkar Kraft Foods bland annat choklad under varumärket Marabou. Vid anläggningen finns en Pralin Line som är en automatiserad produktionslinje för tillverkning av chokladpraliner i ask. Under en tid har Pralin Line inte kunnat motsvara förväntningarna och har inte haft den linjeeffektivitet man eftersträvar. Som ett led i detta har ett projekt initierats för att öka effektiviteten vid Pralin Line. En del i projektet är detta examensjobb som syftar till att utveckla det förebyggande underhållet vid Pralin Line.

Kulturella skillnader - tillgång eller hinder, hur påverkar de anställdas kulturella bakgrund managers kommunikations- och ledarskapsförmåga?
I dagens samhälle kan vi se en allt starkare trend i riktning mot internationalisering och globalisering. Genom att det har blivit lättare att förflytta sig över nationsgränserna har detta öppnat dörrar för såväl privatpersoner som företag. I och med detta har många företag och organisationer fått anpassa sig till, lära sig att förstå och hantera kulturell mångfald. I globala företag är det inte ovanligt att man som manager eller ledare arbetar tillsammans med eller leder anställda med annan nationell kulturell bakgrund än sin egen. Detta kan ibland leda till missförstånd och merjobb, men bidrar även till dynamik och inspiration på arbetsplatsen.Vi genomförde en kvalitativ undersökning som grundade sig på tre djupgående intervjuer med managers på olika nivåer på ett multinationellt callcenter i Wien.

The results of the study has shown that the support that the woman has been given by their spouse / partner has been one of the best and most important support for her to full fill her mission as being a manager as well as a mother.
Vobb - familjevänligt eller företagsvänligt?
Work gets more seamless and the demand on workers increases because of changes in the labour market. Studies show benefits for workers and companies if the employee achieves a balance between work and family, a way to facilitate it is family-friendly policies. A study done by Unionen shows that three out of four white collar workers choose to vobba (working and caring for a sick child), which blurs the boundaries between work and family. Research on flexibility, organisational culture and gender structures shows how these aspects affect the balance between work and family. This is a study where seven white collar workers (three men) that vobbar and two managers (one man) were interviewed.
Teknik är svårt, omsorg är lätt : Kommunchefers föreställningar om ledarskap och genus i äldreomsorgen respektive i teknisk förvaltning
The elderly care is an area of great importance to women. Women are more often in need of elderly care; they work with the service and provide a majority of the informal service. Research shows that managers? work-related prerequisites are significantly different between the male dominated technical administration and the female dominated care and educational administration. Studies also show that what the highest managerial organisation gives priority to, often permeate the whole organisation.
