Abstract:

A generic but flexible decision-support system for domestic water demand forecasting and management (DFMS) has been developed as part of a highlyintegrated decision-support system for river-basin management. Its purpose is to provide water-resources planners with the facilities for estimating future water demand for any demand region and time period, having regard to the possibility of introducing demand-management measures. The system has the capability of predicting domestic-water demand by various methods according to the data availability, computing conservation effectiveness due to the im

Abstract:

Pricing decision support systems have been developed in order to help retail companies optimise the prices they set when selling their goods and services. This research aims to enhance the essential forecasting and optimisation techniques that underlie these systems. This is first done by applying the method of Dynamic Linear Models in order to provide sales forecasts of a higher accuracy compared with current methods. Secondly, the method of Support Vector Regression is used to forecast future competitor prices. This new technique aims to produce forecasts of greater accuracy compared with th

Abstract:

Commercial sugarcane farming requires large quantities of water to be delivered to the fields. Ideal irrigation schedules are produced indicating how much water to be supplied to fields considering multiple objectives in the farming process. Software packages do not fully account for the fact that the ideal irrigation schedule may not be met due to limitations in the water distribution network. This dissertation proposes the use of mathematical modelling to better understand water supply and demand management on a commercial sugarcane farm. Due to the complex nature of water stress on sugarcan

Abstract:

Product forecasts are critical input into procurement, inventory, marketing decisions etc. The use of human judgement is common in the real-world forecasting practice. Human intervention occurs mainly to incorporate contextual information. The literature suggests that a forecasting support system (FSS) that systematically guides the forecaster in applying judgement can improve forecast accuracy. Guidance is the core component of such an FSS. A behaviourally-informed FSS (BIFSS), as defined in this thesis, is an FSS that aims to provide systematic guidance to inform the judgement of a forecaste

Naturally, the topology of MANETs is frequently changing, where nodes having different attributes and transmission capability, forming connections using limited resources.

Abstract:

This thesis proposes that on-demand mapping - where the user can choose the geographic features to map and the scale at which to map them - can be supported by formalising, and making explicit, cartographic generalisation knowledge in an ontology. The aim was to capture the semantics of generalisation, in the form of declarative knowledge, in an ontology so that it could be used by an on-demand mapping system to make decisions about what generalisation algorithms are required to resolve a given map condition, such as feature congestion, caused by a change in scale.

Service providers have long recognized that their customers play a vital role in the service delivery process since they are not only recipients but also producers, or co-producers, of the service delivered. Moreover, in the particular context of self-service technology (SST) offerings, it is widely recognized that customers’ knowledge, skills and abilities in co-producing the service are key determinants of the services’ adoption and usage. However, despite the importance of customers’ capabilities, prior research has not yet paid much attention to the mechanisms by which service providers ca

Abstract:

Kombinationen höga krav, låg kontroll och lågt socialt stöd leder, enligt krav-kontroll-stöd modellen, till de högsta stressnivåerna. Självledarskap ger individen möjligheten att, genom en inre kontroll, återta kontrollen och minska stressnivåerna. Genom att använda sig av självledarskapsstrategier kan individen förändra sina tankemönster och ageranden för att på så vis förhoppningsvis förbättra sin stresshantering. Studiens syfte var att studera relationen mellan självledarskap, stress och arbetets uppbyggnad. Med arbetets uppbyggnad menas här kombinationen av krav, kontroll, stöd samt tydlig

A two-level agent-based modeling framework is proposed for the electric power system to solve the problems of renewable energy utilization and demand-side management. While in the detailed level of the framework the customers and utility companies are modeled as agents to represent electricity demand and supply performances, respectively, the high level reflects the aggregated performance of the considered electricity market via state space models. To connect the two levels, a social network is introduced as a dynamic medium for the interactions among customer agents. While the customers' c

Abstract:

Increased access to modern energy fuels, especially electricity, is of high importance in order to promote sustainable development in developing countries. High quality planning processes using well developed energy models are required for globally increased electrification rates. The Open Source Spatial Electrification Tool (OnSSET) may be used for such purposes as it can model least cost electrification strategies in a region based both on increased grid-connection rates as well as off-grid electricity generation technologies. In this thesis some new developments to the methodology behind On

Abstract:

Work and family are the central and salient domains in one’s life. Juggling work and family life has become a challenge for many employees and families (Hammer et al., 2005). This study proposed a theoretical model in which work to family enrichment functioned as the mediator between work support (support from supervisor, co-workers and organization) and work well-being (job satisfaction and psychological health), and also examined whether work demand buffered the impact of work support on work well-being. The inclusion of work to family enrichment extends prior research on Job Demands – Resou

<p>Finns det någon skillnad i upplevd stress hos förskolepedagoger och grundskollärare? Stress hos lärare kan definieras som en känsla av ilska, spändhet, frustration eller depression. Enligt Krav- kontroll-stödmodellen mår de som har jobb med höga krav, låg kontroll och dåligt socialt stöd sämst på jobbet. En kvantitativ studie har gjorts där enkäter delats ut till lärare på förskolan och grundskolan i en mindre ort i Sverige. Data jämfördes sedan med data från en större ort i Sverige. Resultatet visar att det inte finns någon skillnad i upplevd stress mellan förskolepedagoger och grundskollä

Abstract:

Due to stress, the workplace is a setting where actions of health promotion are of great importance in the perspective of public health. Stress is caused by heavy workload, low control of organizing their tasks and lack of support from colleagues and supervisors. This can lead to cardiovascular disease, depression and insomnia. Due to the health problems that this causes, it is important to examine how senior immigration offices perceive their psychosocial work environment. The aim of this thesis is to examine how the senior immigration offices at the Migration Board perceive their psychosocia

Abstract:

The last decade has seen an exodus of South African nurses migrating to "greener pastures". As a result of this migration, the South African Healthcare Service has been drained of one of its most essential resources – nurses. Subsequently, the crippling flight of nurses has thrown the nursing profession into a state of crisis. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the more popular destinations for South African nurses, the main reason being the attractive financial rewards. One agency reports that they send an average of thirty nurses a month to various hospitals within the Kingdom of Saudi Ar

For the construction industry, the only response is to increase remuneration in order to attract the required resources from a limited pool. At the completion of a project, these resources are returned to the open market until another project has been secured. The cycle of supply and demand then continues and project capital costs increase. Sasol is small player in a very l

It becomes an important issue to proper allocate the limited water supplies during the drought. Agriculture holds the biggest share of water right (about 75%). The industrial and municipal sectors turn to agriculture for water supply dispensation. The agricultural sector changes its cropping pattern, into sabbatical in most of the cases, to spare water for other sectors to relief the water supply shortage in drought. The irrigation
