Ambiguities in organizations and the routines of behavior and change
2015
Purpose– The aim of this article is threefold: the primary aim is conceptual by outlining two ideal-typical ideas about organizational life. These models offer rival ideas about how organizations balance seemingly conflicting patterns of behaviour and change in everyday life. The second ambition of the article is to outline a theoretical approach of organizational life arguing that even fairly loosely coupled organizations may be profoundly patterned by everyday routines as much as by ambiguity. The third and final ambition is to offer empirical illustrations from organizations that are often considered as archetypes of loose coupling and ambiguities: jazz orchestras and university organiza…

Iekšējā tūrisma attīstība Kaļiņingradas reģionā
2015
Kaļiņingradas apgabals ir unikāla Krievijas Federācijas teritorija ar īpašu ģeogrāfisko atrašanās vietu, kurai ir liels dabas un vēsturiskais potenciāls tūrisma attīstībai. Maģistra darba mērķis ir novērtēt situāciju tūrisma jomā šajā reģionā, tā turpmākas attīstības priekšnoteikumus, kā arī sagatavot priekšlikumus, lai sekmētu iekšzemes un starpvalstu tūrisma attīstību.
Bandwidth allocation and pricing in multimode network
2006
This paper presents adaptive resource sharing model that uses a revenue criterion to allocate network resources in an optimal way. The model ensures QoS requirements of data flows and, at the same time, maximizes the total revenue by adjusting parameters of the underlying scheduler. Besides, the adaptive model eliminates the need to find the optimal static weight values because they are calculated dynamically. The simulation consists of several cases that analyse the model and the way it provides the required QoS guarantees. The simulation reveals that the installation of the adaptive model increases the total revenue and ensures the QoS requirements for all service classes.
Mauna Kea, Hawaii, as an Analog Site for Future Planetary Resource Exploration: Results from the 2010 ILSO-ISRU Field-Testing Campaign
2013
Within the framework of the International Lunar Surface Operation - In-Situ Resource Utilization Analogue Test held on January 27 - February 11, 2010 on the Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii, a number of scientific instrument teams collaborated to characterize the field site and test instrument capabilities outside laboratory environments. In this paper, we provide a geological setting for this new field-test site, a description of the instruments that were tested during the 2010 ILSO-ISRU field campaign, and a short discussion for each instrument about the validity and use of the results obtained during the test. These results will form a catalogue that may serve as reference for future test cam…
The White Stone of South-Eastern Sicily: Urban and Territorial Identity
2017
La Sicilia è un territorio fortemente "segnato" dall'impiego massiccio della ricca varietà di materiali lapidei che la natura ha messo a disposizione: materia prima dalle differenti qualità petrografiche, colore, caratteristiche tecniche e con una vasta possibilità di impiego, sia come elemento costruttivo sia come pietra ornamentale. La "pietra bianca" di Siracusa, il basalto dell'Etna, la "pietra forte" del ragusano, la pietra di Sabucina di Caltanissetta e Niscemi, le calcareniti e le rocce tufacee delle cave di Carini e Aspra, il calcare grigio di billiemi nel palermitano e il tufo calcareo di Agrigento, caratterizzano gran parte degli insediamenti antropici dell'isola, espressione di u…
TEACHING TO USE IN SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS PREVIOUSLY ACQUIRED SKILLS
2016
Goal of the research is to analyse how students currently succeed in using basic skills acquired in mathematics, in science and real-life contexts, before new reforms in Latvia for the development of students' competence have been started. Only about 20% of students in the national testing for 9th grade were able to do it. The research analysed students’ papers, results, and study aids, as well as teacher performance in lessons.
El huerto escolar como herramienta innovadora que contribuye al desarrollo competencial del estudiante universitario. Una propuesta educativa multidi…
2017
El huerto escolar es un recurso pedagógico que permite aproximar al alumnado al entorno natural diseñando experiencias interdisciplinares que contribuyan al desarrollo de las competencias básicas. En el ámbito universitario facilita el aprendizaje cooperativo y la adquisición de habilidades socioambientales. El proyecto L’Hort 2.0 pretende crear un entorno virtual basado en el huerto escolar para la administración de contenidos TIC que permitan enlazar las actividades fuera del aula con el contenido de las guías docentes. Se trabaja mediante una metodología activa y colaborativa, en tres fases: preparación y diseño del entorno web en seis áreas temáticas; elaboración de materiales educativo…
Diseño y validación de la bater´ía de competencia literaria (BCL) Design and validation of the literary competence battery (LBC)
2019
El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar el proceso de diseño y validación de la Batería de Competencia Literaria (BCL). La Batería está formada por tres escalas: Escala de Conceptos Literarios (ECL), Escala de Procedimientos Literarios (EPL) y Escala de Actitudes hacia la literatura (EAL). La adquisición de la Competencia Literaria (CL) es el principal objetivo de la llamada Educación Literaria. Sin embargo, existen pocos métodos para medir esta competencia y la mayoría presentan problemas prácticos que limitan su estandarización. Un total de 221 adolescentes participaron en el proceso de diseño y validación. Se llevaron a cabo estudios sobre las propiedades de las pruebas incluyendo medid…
Power Grid Integration and Use-Case Study of Acid-Base Flow Battery Technology
2021
There are many different types of energy storage systems (ESS) available and the functionality that they can provide is extensive. However, each of these solutions come with their own set of drawbacks. The acid-base flow battery (ABFB) technology aims to provide a route to a cheap, clean and safe ESS by means of providing a new kind of energy storage technology based on reversible dissociation of water via bipolar electrodialysis. First, the main characteristics of the ABFB technology are described briefly to highlight its main advantages and drawbacks and define the most-competitive use-case scenarios in which the technology could be applied, as well as analyze the particular characteristi…
