Abstract:

Wise investments in Information Technology have become increasingly important in staying competitive in today's environment. Massive amounts of people and IT-systems are involved in the process of input becoming output. As these employees and IT-systems must be harmonized, it becomes relevant to study how employees’ routines and habits are related to the usage and embeddedness of these systems. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to investigate how embedded IT can lead to improved business processes. This is done through exploring how embedded IT is used in workflows as well as to examine

Abstract:

A growing amount of multimedia information exists online, commonly referred to as the multimedia explosion. Many research efforts are focused on the concept that computing is ubiquitous and that accessing network resources is not the challenge, but rather finding the right object is. However, Americas military and other first responder organizations often find themselves in austere environments where access to network resources is scarce, and where every bit transmitted has to count. In this thesis we design a unique Lead-Me protocol that addresses both network access and finding the right dat

Interconnection networks represent the backbone of large-scale parallel systems. In order to build ultra-scale supercomputers larger interconnection networks are being designed and deployed. As compute nodes become more energy-efficient, the interconnect is accounting for an increasing proportion of the total system energy consumption. The interconnect's energy consumption is, however, only starting to receive serious attention. Most of this power consumption is due to the interconnection links. The problem, in terms of power, of an interconnect link is that its power consumption is almost con

Rapid device-miniaturization keeps on inducing challenges in building energy efficient microprocessors. As the size of the transistors continuously decreasing, more uncertainties emerge in their operations.

This dissertation investigates one of the primary device uncertainties - timing error, in microprocessor performance bottleneck in NTC era.

The applications of crop growth models to the barley crop in Scotland was investigated. Three models, the ARCWHEAT winter wheat model, the CERES barley model and a Dutch spring wheat model, were evaluated using data from a range of seasons, cultivars and sites in south-east Scotland. The chosen models use different methods to predict crop development, based on the principle that development rate is a function of temperature and photoperiod. Specification of cultivars was based on difference in vernalisation requirement and photoperiod sensitivity which were found hard to quantify precisely. Cr

Reducing the transmission bandwidth and achieving higher speech quality are primary concerns in developing new speech coding algorithms. The goal of this thesis is to improve the perceptual speech quality of algorithms that employ linear predictive coding (LPC). Most LPC-based speech coders extract parameters representing an all-pole filter. This LPC analysis is performed on each block or frame of speech. To smooth out the evolution of the LPC tracks, each block is divided into subframes for which the LPC parameters are interpolated. This improves the perceptual quality without additional tran

A well known performance bottleneck in computer architecture is the so-called memory wall. This term refers to the huge disparity between on-chip and off-chip access latencies. Historically speaking, the operating frequency of processors has increased at a steady pace, while most past advances in memory technology have been in density, not speed. Nowadays, the trend for ever increasing processor operating frequencies has been replaced by an increasing number of CPU cores per chip. This will continue to exacerbate the memory wall problem, as several cores now have to compete for off-chip data a

Rice, as a major staple crop, is one of the most important targets for plant breeders in an attempt to secure enough food for a growing world population. Producing nutrient efficient crops has become essential not only to attempt securing enough food for the growing population, but also to eliminate environmental consequences of using fertilizers. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) are major macronutrients that are rate limiting for plant growth and crop productivity. The aims of this project were to explore the genetic diversity of rice to identify genotypes with high efficiency u

Abstract:

Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of wheat cultivars can be improved by modifying the onset of senescence to optimise sink-source balance for target environments. The NUE can be divided into two main components: nitrogen uptake efficiency (NUpE), shows the capacity of the plant to absorb N from the soil; and nitrogen utilisation efficiency (NUtE), shows the ability to use available N within plant to produce grain. Therefore, understanding the mechanism regulating NUE and its components is required to produce high yielding cultivars with minimum N application. The objective of this study was to inv

Abstract:

Railroads have been subject to federal regulation since 1887. Due to the development of competing modes of transportation and changes in types of products being shipped, regulation began to impede efficiency and viability of firms, leading to partial deregulation of the industry in 1980. Partial deregulation allowed railroads to reduce costs, notably through mergers and line abandonment, which were aggressively pursued following deregulation and led to dramatic efficiency gains. However, concerns remain over increased consolidation, lack of competition in the industry, and the ability of firms

In total, over 26 systems are analyzed, and 19 presented: Chalcogenides (PbSe, PbTe, Sb2Te3, Ag2Se), Skutterudites and Clathrates (CoSb3, SrFe4Sb12, Cd (CN)2, CdC, Ba8Ga16Si30*), Perovskites

Abstract:

Modern microprocessors devote a large portion of their chip area to caches in order to bridge the speed and bandwidth gap between the core and main memory. One known problem with caches is that they are usually used with low efficiency; only a small fraction of the cache stores data that will be used before getting evicted. As the focus of microprocessor design shifts towards achieving higher performance-perwatt, cache efficiency is becoming increasingly important. This dissertation proposes techniques to improve both data cache efficiency in general and instruction cache efficiency for Explic

How to improve the efficiency of software testing is an important issue of software cost reduction. However, few researches on testing efficiency were discussed. In this paper, the following two techniques to improve the testing efficiency of the structural testing are proposed: (1) Incremental optimum path set selection method: This method uses the previo

Owing to unclear organization definition, quality sectors are prone to serve as many roles/duties, resulting in losing focuses, being difficult to measure performances, and harming the company's overall operational efficiency. This thesis is conducted by a qualitative case study to explore the quality organization issues of SMEs for redesigning quality organization as the tr

The RFID applied research also receives the enormous inspiration along with it. Companies adopting RFID-based solutions have several ways to drive ROI and gain additional business benefits. RFID technology can help improve current operational procedure, saves the involvement of manpower and time, and further simplify the information collection process and promotes data value. However, very few animal shel

碩士<br>中原大學<br>財務金融研究所<br>107<br>This investigation studies the association between corporate disclosure and price efficiency by exploiting the distinct dataset of information disclosure and transparency ratings system (IDTRS) from 2005 to 2014 in Taiwan. The evidence suggests that firms with more expanded disclosure policy can exacerbate the degree of stock prices temporarily deviating from fundamental value. Furthermore, the negative relation between information disclosure and price efficiency is more pronounced when considering the impact of analysts’ forecast accuracy. We also attempt to fi

Starting from a portfolio point of view, we apply the concept of mean-variance efficiency developed by Markowitz (1952) to verify the findings of Brocato and Steed (1998).When diamonds are included in a portfolio comprised only of stocks and bonds, return is found to be higher and/or risks is found to be lower, moving the efficient frontier northwestward. We also update the market of diamonds and discuss the do’s and don’ts when making diamond investments.
