Abstract:
Case studies are widely used across a lot of different subject areas, however there are a lot of questions about the use of it because of the doubt in its’ contribution to science and the quality of it. The purpose with this research paper is to define the case study and the characteristics required in it for it to be classified and recognized as a “good” case study. Findings reveal that case study is defined in many different ways depending on the area of subject it is presented in. A good case study is reliable, valid and is used as a qualitative research method and it contains a lot of dept

Agile methods have been widely implemented in the industry while teaching these methods is a substantial part of Computer Science and Engineering program curricula.

In order to fill this gap, this paper explores the perceptions and the applicability of the Scrum Framework in a student research team in an industrial context.

Abstract:
A heterogeneous research partnership (HRP) is one in which industry, academia and government collaborate to conduct research, typically of national importance. Whilst most HRPs complete their planned duration and deliver their agreed tasks, it is not uncommon for participants to be left feeling somewhat dissatisfied, suggesting that the requirements which are being met are incomplete. There is an opportunity to improve the success of HRPs by establishing principles and practices for the application of systems engineering in their development.

In effect, it considers the ways in which researchers extract I construct meanings to fulfil feminist objectives in research. Consequently, the work covers the epistemological gap in methodology within local Women's Studies; and enriches international research by

Digital transformation within higher education learning and teaching is a wicked problem, one of complexity, involving multiple moving parts and interdependencies (Marshall, 2018). Current conversations tend to coalesce around whether transformation is a pedagogical problem or a technological problem. However, when one takes a pedagogy-first approach, the contextual forces around the technology are ignored (Dron, 2012), and the same is true in a technology-first approach. This research aimed to take a more holistic approach to explore the interdependencies between context, pedagogy, and techno

Abstract:
Future seismic losses including the physical, economic and social ones as well as casualties concern a wide range of authorities varying from geophysical and earthquake engineers, physical and economic planners to insurance companies. As its many components involve inherent uncertainties, a probabilistic approach is required to estimate seismic losses. This study aims to propose a probabilistic method for estimating seismic losses, and to predict the potential seismic loss for the residential buildings for a selected district in Bursa, which is a highly industrialized city in Northwestern Tur

Abstract:
<p> An information system (IS) risk assessment is an important part of any successful security management strategy. Risk assessments help organizations to identify mission-critical IS assets and prioritize risk mitigation efforts. Many risk assessment methodologies, however, are complex and can only be completed successfully by highly qualified and experienced security experts. Small-sized organizations, including small-sized colleges and universities, due to their financial constraints and lack of IS security expertise, are challenged to conduct a risk assessment. Therefore, most small-si

Abstract:
Value stream mapping (VSM) is a commonly used Lean tool which is appropriate when examining the current state of a process to identify improvement opportunities in the form of wastes. VSM can be helpful in identifying activities that do not create value for the customer which makes it possible to reduce the non-value adding activities and create a more efficient process. The use of the Six Sigma methodology DMAIC has for duringthe last decades increased substantially with the growing interest in Six Sigma.
