Att utforma gra?nssnitt och system da?r variationen mellan anva?ndares respektive anva?ndningsma?l, a?lder eller andra fo?rutsa?ttningar varierar, kan vara en sva?r uppgift och kra?va fo?rsta?else fo?r de ma?nga olika anva?ndarna. Fo?rbundet Svensk Bridge a?r en organisation med o?ver 26.000 medlemmar i a?ldrarna 10 till 90plus, och har sa?ledes ma?nga olika typer av anva?ndare, med olika fo?rutsa?ttningar och kunskap, fo?r att kunna ta till sig den information som finns pa? Fo?rbundets hemsida.I den ha?r fallstudien har det tillva?gaga?ngssa?tt av den designprocedur fo?r framtagandet av en prototyp pa? en ny hemsida a?t Fo?rbundet Svensk Bridge utva?rderats. Detta har genomfo?rts genom dokumentation av designproceduren under alla dess olika moment, och sedan genom en utva?rdering och ja?mfo?relse av designprototypen gentemot dagens befintliga hemsida.

Today, Ericsson Microwave Systems (EMW) uses non-graphical user interfaces in some of their Ada95 applications. EMW wishes to develope a more easy-to-use and platform independent graphical user interface (GUI) for their applications. To meet these requirements EMW has chosen to evaluate Java in GUI development with Ada95. To make it possible for the Java GUI to communicate with the Ada95 application, some kind of standardized interface is required. CORBA is a specification of such an interface.

AbstractTitle: Wireless Fidelity ? A Scenario Analysis Authors: Mellberg Ola, Technology Management, Lund UniversityMårtensson Jens, Technology Management, Lund University Tutors: Andersson Jens A, Faculty of Engineering LTHKarlberg Johan, Sony Ericsson Mobile Communication ABSvensson Claes, Lund University Discussion: The most significant impacts on the telecom industry over the past decades have been the rapid growth of the Internet and mobile telephone services. Currently these two worlds are converging. Moreover, the fast expansion of wireless high capacity Internet access, increased distribution of local/public hotspots and rapid development of wireless network cards have opened new opportunities for the mobile telecom industry. Research Questions:To what extent could the explosion of local and public wireless networks, using WiFi technology, affect the future telecom industry? Who will ultimately master the WiFi innovation and to what degree could this innovation open new possibilities for external players to enter the mobile voice industry? Purpose: The purpose of the Master Thesis is to provide Sony Ericsson Mobile Communication AB with the most transformational scenarios, which will enable employees to recognise patterns and interpret the meaning of WiFi-related events as they unfold.

The electric vehicle market has potential to contribute to Sweden?s national goal to have a fossil fuel independent transport sector by 2030. However, the market answers to a lot of challenges making it difficult for the market to fully reach its potential. The volume of electric vehicles has seen a steady increase during the last year (2012), although many of these vehicles are mostly for PR purposes or bought by the public sector that wants to lead by example. Still, barriers in the form of high purchase costs, an anxiety for the limited battery capacity and the lack of standardisation are some of the problems that the market is struggling to solve.

Where is technology heading? And how will our behaviors towards these new innovations look? This project questions the direction of ?beyond smart? products, through scenarios within our everyday life. The work is both critical and speculative. Speculative in the sense that it is speculating in how a future scenario with ?beyond smart? products would look like.

This report presents the preliminary study and work for the development of a site structure for the upcoming reengineering of inter-tool Infopunkt. The report describes how I have conducted a study regarding the current inter-tool information center and its development potential. Thereafter compiling the information to develop a comprehensive design approach to create a sitemap. The sitemap illustrates a new updated page structure for Infopunkt and was the primary goal of the thesis. The sitemap I have developed will form the basis for the agency that will later on develop the new updated version of Infopunkt..

The hydropower from Nissan River is of national interest and produces annually 230 GWh from the twelve power stations in the main flow. For modified waters a consideration between the power production and the biological values has to be made. This reports serves as a pre-study for Nissans Vattenråd. It tries to evaluate some of the biological values in the Nissan basin and map the power production in the area. And the size and value of lost power production from new fishways for the twelve stations in the main flow.The investment of new fishways is calculated using simplified templates with values from the business.

Användbarhet är idag en del av människa-dator interaktion som bl.a. Södertörns högskola satsar på att lära ut. Syftet med denna undersökning är att belysa användbarheten på Södertörns högskolas hemsida. För att definiera användbarhet används den internationella standarden för användbarhet (ISO 9241-11, 1998) samt människa-dator interaktionsforskaren Jacob Nielsens definition av användbarhet. Detta har genomförts genom en observationsstudie med fem användare.

Our aim in this work has been to redesign ModernFamilies and make a user-friendly interface for people with aphasia. The focus has been to identify general issues they might face while using different technology and applications, in order to find better alternative design for ModernFamilies, with a focus on usability. To approach this issue, we used a qualitative method. Our study includes several interviews and observations preformed in conjunction with the AGNES project (AGeing in a NEtworked Society) and speech therapists. Aphasia requires simple design that in the same time gives them support to understand and use technology and different applications.

När det gäller design av augmented reality­markörer och platsbaserat berättande finns det många aspekter att ta hänsyn till för att skapa en djup och engagerande upplevelse för användaren. Det finns olika tekniska och kommunikativa faktorer att ta hänsyn till, bland annat måste markörerna vara igenkännbara som just markörer samtidigt som de måste vara tolkningsbara av bildigenkänningen i augmented reality­enheten. Mitt i denna konflikt ligger en designutmaning i vilket det estetiska uttrycket och berättandet måste passa in.Denna studie har genomförts som en kvalitativ fallstudie där scenarier och prototyper har utvecklats utifrån designmetoder som bland annat brainstormning och idéloggar baserat på teorier om designprinciper för augmented reality och berättande i olika medier. En intervju med en potentiell uppdragsgivare ligger delvis till grund för designarbetet. Det producerade materialet har utvärderats genom användbarhetstester samt observationer och intervjuer med ett antal testpersoner.Under arbetet utvecklades ?Naturens gång? ? en platsbaserad berättelse med tillhörande augmented reality­markörer.

The idea for the project emerged when Nilorn wanted to get better control over their supplychain and improve operational efficiency. The company also want to reduce their expenses inthe continuous process of improving profitability. By choosing the right option oftransportation and mode of transport there are large potential savings for the company. Thisenables Nilorn to reduce the transportation costs and strengthen the environmentalresponsibilities by reducing their environmental impact.The flow of goods within Nilorn has over the past years increased significantly and most ofthe gods today is transported by air. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the supply chain of thecompany and evaluate the potential economic savings in this area.
