Abstract:
Modern economies are organised as webs of interconnected agents. Among others, companies represent the principal actors. In the recent decades, the emergence of supply networks, that is the organisation of technical processes in production stages involving specialised suppliers located in different countries, brings about an increasing complexity in the worldwide economic system. Moreover, empirical studies from firm-level data provide evidence of heterogeneous distribution in companies performance also within industries, regions and countries.

Abstract:
Byggbranschen har en låg produktivitetsutveckling i jämförelse med andra industribranscher. Den låga produktivitetsnivån medför stora kostnader för byggföretagen. För att vända trenden krävs det en kartläggning av nuvarande produktivitet för att sedan kunna genomföra en förändring. Ett nytt verktyg för att mäta produktivitet för maskiner ska införas hos Skanska AB och i denna studie utförs mätningen på grävmaskiner på hjul i ett vägprojekt. Mätningen går till så att en produktivitetsmätare placeras på en grävmaskin. Mätaren registrerar rörelse och skickar data till en server som sedan gör om i

Algal biodiesel is a biodegradable and sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum fuels. Algal biodiesel is synthesised from algal lipids via transesterification and has many desirable physical properties for fuel use. Current photobioreactors are inefficient.

The purpose of this work was to identify promising microalgal species and strategies of nitrogen deprivation that optimise lipid productivity for biodiesel production. This was carried out by I) developing the tools necessary to measure lipid productivity accurately, II) identifying and quantifying the key characteristics of promising microalgal strains, initially through a literature survey and then experimentally, and III) investigating the effect of different degrees of N limitation, and different N culture regimes, on cell physiology and lipid productivity in Chlorella vulgaris.

Different motivation theories have been developed in general management to explain workers' attitude to production.

This research approached construction operatives directly in order to evaluate their motivation in relation to their productivity.

The cost of construction projects have increased during the past few years. Different actors in the construction industry work together to advocate various measures to mitigate these cost increases. One of these measures is to try to improve the efficiency in the phase of production. By striving for a kind of standardization with a constant quest for improvement, the productivity can increase while the costs of production fall.
