Technology Architecture as a Driver for Business Cooperation: Case Study - Public Sector Cooperation in Finland
2019
The current premise in the enterprise architecture (EA) literature is that business architecture defines all other EA architecture layers; information architecture, information systems architecture, and technology architecture. In this paper, we will study the ICT-cooperation between eight small and mid-sized municipalities and cities in Southern Finland. Our case demonstrates that the ICT-cooperation is possible without business cooperation and that ICT-cooperation can be a driver for future business cooperation. The findings challenge the current premise of the guiding force of the business architecture and encourage organisations’ ICT-functions to seek daringly cooperation with other org…
Systems Approaches in the Enterprise Architecture Field of Research: A Systematic Literature Review
2018
This study explores the use of the systems approaches (systems thinking and systems theories) as the theoretical underpinnings for Enterprise Architecture (EA) research. Both the academic and the practitioner communities have maintained an interest in EA due to its potential benefits, promising for the recent technological and business advances. EA as a research area is, however, characterized by diversified views depicted in different definitions of the concept, and no acknowledged common theoretical foundation. A number of prior studies have noticed this gap in the EA field of research, and called for a strengthening of the theory of EA. Variegated systems approaches have been suggested a…
The Internationalization of B2B Digital Platform Providers : The Role of Cross-National Distance and Digital Characteristics
2020
Digitalization offers new opportunities and changes how firms can explore and enter new markets. Current literature has deepened our understanding of the internationalization process of digital-based firms, but it provides very little guidance on how the specific characteristics of digital artifacts enable and accelerate internationalization or of the role of crossnational distance and cultural difference. We use a longitudinal single-case approach to explore how a Business-to-Business (B2B) platform provider internationalized its operations from inception. The case study illustrates that the ongoing development of the digital service and the integration with new devices played an important…
Changes of meaning due to changes of articles: A study of singular count nouns in post-verbal position in Italian
2009
'Essi fecero un muro' vs. 'Essi fecero muro': on the surface, these Italian sentences differ only for the presence of an article before the post-verbal noun (PVN) 'muro', literally 'wall'. Despite this minor divergence, their VPs vary greatly in meaning: the former can be rendered as 'They built a wall', the latter as 'They put up resistance'. In Italian, many other nouns behave as 'muro' does above. The meanings come from distinct structures: PVNs preceded by an article are direct objects. Bare PVNs, at times the very same noun, can either pass tests for direct object-hood or show distinct syntactic ties with the verb.
Nežēlības teātra un zilo teorijas elementi 21. gs. latviešu teātrī : V. Meikšāna un V. Nastavševa piemēri
2020
Bakalaura darba “Nežēlības teātra un zilo teorijas elementi 21. gs. (2015–2020) latviešu teātrī: V. Nastavševa un V. Meikšāna piemēri” teorētiskā daļa ir veltīta Antonēna Arto (Antonin Artaud) Nežēlības teātra teorijas un zilo teorijas analīzei. Tajā uzskaitīti faktori, kas ietekmējuši teoriju rašanos, raksturoti galvenie teoriju elementi un sniegta informācija par teoriju aktualitāti 21. gs. Balstoties uz teorētiskajā daļā aprakstīto, kā arī Vladislava Nastavševa un Viestura Meikšāna izrādēm, veikts pētījums, kurā izzināts abu teoriju elementu izmantojums gan izrādēm izvēlētajos teksta materiālos, gan inscenējumos Latvijas teātros. Nežēlības teātra teorijas un zilo teorijas izpausmes anali…

Latvijas armijas veterinārā dienesta nozīme un darbība 1919.-1940.g.
2020
Pētījums veltīts historiogrāfijā līdz šim maz aplūkotai tēmai – Latvijas armijas veterinārā dienesta darbībai Latvijas Neatkarības kara laikā (turpmāk Neatkarības karš) un starpkaru perioda posmā, no veterinārā dienesta dibināšanas 1919. gada 29. jūlijā līdz tā likvidācijai 1940. gadā. Mērķis ir raksturot Latvijas armijas veterinārā dienesta nozīmi, uzmanību veltot tā izveidei un darbībai laika posmā no 1919. gada līdz 1940. gadam. Veterinārā dienesta uzdevums bija nodrošināt kvalitatīvu zirgu ārstēšanu, ierīkojot tiem atbilstošas telpas, izdodot instrukcijas par to pareizu kopšanu. Bermontiādes laikā, sakarā ar to, ka norisinājās aktīva karadarbība, armijā bija palielinājies zirgu skaits, …
Mise en évidence d'un Sénonien gypseux sous la série phosphatée du bassin des Ouled Abdoun: un nouveau point de départ pour l'origine des zones déran…
2013
In the Ouled Abdoun sedimentary basin (Morocco), the phosphatic series is composed of regular interbedded phosphatic and marly limestone layers. Exploitation of the phosphate in some deposits in this basin collides frequently with problems bound to the existence, in the phosphatic series, of disturbed areas (sterile bodies) qualified as derangements by the mining engineers of the Office Cherifian Phosphate Group (OCP). Their presence in the phosphatic layers causes two kinds of problems: (1) since the whole phosphatic sequence is overlain by a Quaternary cover, we do not know their volume proportion in the phosphatic layers, and therefore the reserves estimations can be wrong (2) they are g…
Phosphorus limitation enhances parasite impact: feedback effects at the population level
2014
Background Nutrient deficiency affects the growth and population dynamics of consumers. Endoparasites can be seen as consumers that drain carbon (C) or energy from their host while simultaneously competing for limiting resources such as phosphorus (P). Depending on the relative demands of the host and the parasite for the limiting nutrient, intensified resource competition under nutrient limitation can either reduce the parasite’s effect on the host or further reduce the fitness of the nutrient-limited host. So far, knowledge of how nutrient limitation affects parasite performance at the host population level and how this affects the host populations is limited. Results We followed the popu…
Zootextualité et zooscénographie: l'animal dans le théâtre de boulevard au XIXe siècle (1800-1862)
2019
Desde el inicio de la historia de la humanidad es posible constatar la presencia recurrente de la animalidad en la realidad humana. El animal aparece pues como la primera alteridad frente a la cual el hombre construye su propia identidad. Así, las pinturas rupestres, los “parques paraíso” de las primeras civilizaciones del Mediterráneo, las creaciones estatuarias con motivos animales, la veneración de deidades zoomórficas o la momificación de especies divinizadas, evidencian la profunda relación existente entre animales humanos y no humanos. La cohabitación entre especies continua durante la Edad Media. Los bestiarios o las exhibiciones de animales con habilidades en las ferias de las princ…
