This case study is performed within the production of Sherwin-Williams, Bellö. The purpose is to increase the understanding how a value stream can function more efficient, from a lead Time perspective. With the analytical model that is build up on known theories, the purpose have been fulfilled. Mapping of value and non value Time for four products thru their respectively process reveals wastes, which is, waiting, transport and movement, incorrect processing and set-up Time that in it self create transport and movement. Thru identified wastes that causes loss in lead Time suggestions of improvement has been proposed.

This paper aims at assessing the relationship between female and male part-Time employment and the business cycle in Sweden during the years 1987?2005 using quarterly Time-series data and two alternative indicators of the business cycle. It further aims at determining whether the share of women working part-Time has changed over Time. Key results include that the relationship between the business cycle and female part-Time employment is found to be significant and countercyclical. No significant effect is however found for men.

Abstract   Cinematic Time is the most complex of all: it is composed of public Time (clock), personal Time (experienced) and in addition, it can run backwards, be contingent, stored and (re)created. The present study examines some aspects of cinematic Time, with special reference to the instant, the moment and the present. The strictly defined instant or moment does not exist. It is a passage between the past and the future and it is impossible to record on film or a photograph. One example is the moment of death, which is an abstraction with zero duration.

The aim of the present study was to investigate response Time variations in tasks for assessment of high level language functions and how response Time is related to education, age and gender. Response Time is defined as the Time to complete a task after it has been presented. 103 subjects, aged 20 to 80 years, were tested with the Assessment of Subtle Language Disorders, Sentence analysis and Morphological completion. The subtest Comprehension of ambiguous sentences showed the longest response Time and Morphological completion the shortest. Correlations were found between increasing age and longer response Time for Comprehension of metaphors and between education and response Time for several subtests.

The main purpose in this degree thesis is to investigate changes in performance when introducing a newly produced Real-Time database in one of CC Systems products, the Diagnostic RunTime Engine, DRE. The thesis is a collaboration between CC Systems, creator of DRE, and Mimer AB, developer of the Real-Time database.The result reveals that the Time spent on database access is considerably lesscompared to the originally used database. The research has lead to several additional requirements on the real-Time database and these are presented as part of the result in this thesis. The additional features will help making the product more suitable for DRE and similar applications.Additional research is required to be able to recommend the use of this product or not. Primarily the performance in another operating system, Windows CE, but also the introduction of additional features should be investigated.

ABSTRACTThe aim of the observation study was to examine the dental hygienists working tasks and the Time they used carrying them out. Four dental hygienists where observed during four days each.

For a long Time I have felt that there is a lack of Time planning productson the market that attracts me to use them. Therefore I wantedto explore the possibilities of developing something that I reallywanted to use.At first I tried to come up with a more general tool for planningand structuring Time, different from the products that are alreadyavailable. But soon I found it more interesting to see myself as theprimary user. This way I felt that I could experiment more and Ididn?t have to take things like production, cost and possible targetgroups into consideration.As I set out with an aim to try and understand my own problemswith planning and structuring Time the project became a very personalone.

This study was made for the round wood transport company MT Transport AB. Time studies were made in order to analyze Time consumption on the mill site for timber trucks delivering round wood at the Södra Cell Mörrum mill.

This masters thesis takes the providers perspective on public library story Times for children. The main questions are: What perspectives can the providers have? How does the perspective affect the content and how is the story Time drawn up? Five story Time providers were interviewed about the purpose of their story Times, the methods they used and the content they chose. A model with four criteria was used to analyze the result of the interviews. The criteria were: adult criteria, consideration of the childrens view, pedagogical criteria and literary/story Time criteria.

The study aims to contribute knowledge about children's perceptions of the leisure-Time as a learning environment. The study can be seen as an attempt to highlight the possible learning in the leisure-Time, formally or informally.The study is based on two group interviews with a total of 11 children and was conducted by an interview guide with question areas to be discussed freely so that the children could give as full an answer as possible.Main results of the study show that children feel that they are staying at the leisure-Time to get care when their parents are working and that they primarily associate the leisure-Time with playing. The results show however that children feel that they learn things when participating in the leisure-Time teaches controlled activities.It is possible to draw conclusions about the child actually experienced the leisure-Time as a learning environment, but it can be difficult to identify when and how learning actually occurs. However, children do not perceive that there is learning while they play..
