Résumé :

Continual technology innovations make it possible to fabricate electronic devices on the order of 10nm. In this nanoscale regime, quantum physics becomes critically important, like energy quantization effects of the narrow channel and the leakage currents due to tunneling. It has also been utilized to build novel devices, such as the band-to-band tunneling field-effect transistors (FETs). Therefore, it presages accurate quantum transport simulations, which not only allow quantitative understanding of the device performances but also provide physical insight and guidelines for device optimizati

Résumé :

Nonparametric linear programming tests for consistency with the hypotheses of technical efficiency and allocative efficiency for the general case of multiple output-multiple input technologies are developed in Part I. The tests are formulated relative to three kinds of technologies — convex, constant returns to scale and quasiconcave technologies. Violation indices as summary indicators of the distance of an inefficient observation from an efficient allocation are proposed. The consistent development of the violation indices across the technical efficiency and allocative efficiency tests allow

Résumé :

Kostnad och tid är två parametrar som går hand i hand i näst intill alla sammanhang, inte minst i byggbranschen.

Framför allt är en kortare byggtid av stor vikt, som ett resultat av det har det industriella byggandet fått en alltmer betydande roll.

This thesis investigates the use of a combined set of quantitative and qualitative tools to help address known barriers associated with adopting and sustaining pollution prevention (P2) in an industrial manufacturing setting. The research was conducted at an Ontario dairy processing facility in the form of a case study. P2 is an alternative approach to traditional pollution control or abatement techniques. P2 is a preferred method for pollution management, both environmentally and economically, as it focuses on the efficient use of resources to prevent pollution at the source. The tools used i

Résumé :

Efciency-driven reforms have become increasingly relevant in education policy, as education systems face tighter budget constraints. Educational authorities around the world often struggle to foster the best student outcomes out of the set of available school resources. This dissertation aims to contribute to this debate by using a semi-parametric approach to evaluate the efciency across 34 OECD countries, using data from PISA 2015. The estimation of the education production possibilities frontier is made through a free disposal hull (FDH) method, a non-convex and non-parametric estimator, al

Résumé :

The dissertation focuses on the topic of packaging waste management and treats the subject from two different approaches. From a qualitative point of view, it aims to compare the compliance schemes implemented in Portugal and Italy and the model of calculation of the financial support to local authorities. Moreover, from a quantitative point of view, it aims to evaluate the relative cost efficiencies, in both its time invariant and time varying components, by means of stochastic frontier analysis. Regarding the first objective, the main difference between the financial transfers to the local a

Résumé :

The increased average lifespan, together with low birth rates, are transforming the European Union's age pyramid. Currently, we are experiencing a transition towards a much older population structure. Given that the institutions that provide care to these population groups are limited by budgetary constraints, it is imperative to optimize several processes, among which route planning and staff scheduling stand out. This dissertation aims to develop a mathematical programming model to support the planning of routes and human resources for providers of Home Social Services. Beyond general

Résumé :

This research explores the relationship between the organisational culture and financial performance of a South African investment bank by means of quantitative research. The Denison Organizational Culture Survey was used to measure the organisational culture of the investment bank and was administered to a sample of 327 employees. Income statement ratio analysis was selected as a means to assess the financial performance. The results indicate that very few of the financial measures selected could be shown to be correlated with the organisational cultural traits or subscales. Correlations bet

Résumé :

The concern about collecting and treating recyclable waste has been growing in Portugal since the 90's. Vehicle routing problems has a key role in companies with the mission to collect and treat waste, since it represents between 66-69 % of the total costs. The goal of this project is to study a routing problem which uses vehicles with multi-compartments. This project was developed using data from Valorsul, a company responsible for collecting waste in the surrounding areas of Lisbon. In this project it is developed a heuristic, cluster-first route-second, and it is made a compariso

Résumé :

The amount of ambiguity present in real life negotiations is intolerable towards the possibility of perceiving the negotiation scenario as a competitive and castrating process for one of the party's. The temptation to find one-size-fits-all prescription of unerring steps towards the negotiation success, offers this process no more than a romantic character or maybe, one relieving mirage of the required multiple factors that the negotiation scenario demands. This dissertation’s objective is based on the identification and analysis of the cultural dimensions that impact specifically, busin
