Quality culture boosts agile transformation : Action research in a business‐to‐business software business
2023
Agile methodologies are sometimes adopted, with the assumption that benefits can be attained by only using a set of best practices, which can sometimes work to a degree. In this paper, a case is discussed where a software-producing organization of seven teams achieved significant improvements. The goal of the research was to answer two questions: how an already agile organization could improve its performance further and what is the impact of promoting quality aspects? The questions were answered by implementing interventions based on prior literature and data emerging from semi-structured interviews. The context was an established business with a complex revenue stream structure, meaning t…
Sports teams as complex adaptive systems: manipulating player numbers shapes behaviours during football small-sided games
2016
Small-sided and conditioned games (SSCGs) in sport have been modelled as complex adaptive systems. Research has shown that the relative space per player (RSP) formulated in SSCGs can impact on emergent tactical behaviours. In this study we adopted a systems orientation to analyse how different RSP values, obtained through manipulations of player numbers, influenced four measures of interpersonal coordination observed during performance in SSCGs. For this purpose we calculated positional data (GPS 15 Hz) from ten U-15 football players performing in three SSCGs varying in player numbers (3v3, 4v4 and 5v5). Key measures of SSCG system behaviours included values of (1) players’ dispersion, (2) …
Impact of supplier-specific investments in inter-organisational information systems on strategic electronic coordination: the moderation effect of bu…
2018
Abstract This paper examines the factors which influence sharing of the strategic information (in other words, electronic coordination) in a buyer–supplier dyad. The antecedents of this coordination are examined rather well in the transaction cost economics (TCE) theory and resource-dependency theory (RDT), while the supply chain management perspective is contemplated. The mentioned frameworks are used in the analysis. However, the research focus is narrowed down to the exploration of the antecedents of information exchange conducted via inter-organisational information systems (IOS). The empirical analysis is based on 198 observations of Norwegian companies operating in different types of …
Cadmium Metal–Organic Frameworks Based on Ditopic Triazamacrocyclic Linkers: Unusual Structural Features and Selective CO 2 Capture
2017
International audience; Two three-dimensional cadmium metal organic frameworks with general formula [Cd-2(L-1)(H2O)(3)](NO3)(0.7)(HCOO)(0.2)Br-0.1 (Cd2L1, L-1 = 1,4,7-tris(4-carboxybenzy1)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Cd(HL2)(H2O)(2) (CdL2, L-2 = 1,4,7-tris(3-(4-benzoate)prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,7-triazacydononane) based on 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalized by different arylcarboxylic acids were prepared under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis and porosity measurements. The crystal structure of Cd2L1 reveals a cationic net with a bcs topology,. and nodes are constituted by dinuclear cadmium complexes, in which each cadmium atom adopts a hexacoordin…
Audzēkņu instrumentspēles prasmju un ķermeņa darbības pilnveides mijsakarības trombona spēles mācību procesā mūzikas skolā
2015
Trombona spēles pedagoģija bieži vien izmanto paņēmienus un metodes, kas ir pretrunā ar cilvēka ķermeņa darbības fizioloģiskajiem principiem un var gan kavēt un ierobežot instrumentspēles prasmju attīstību, gan radīt kaitējumus mūziķa veselībai. Ārvalstu mūzikas pedagoģijas zinātniskajā literatūrā arvien lielāks uzsvars tiek likts uz cilvēka darbības psiholoģisko un fizioloģisko mehānismu un likumsakarību integrēšanu pedagoģiskajā procesā. Arī trombona spēles prasmju pilnveidi nepieciešams balstīt cilvēka ķermeņa darbības pamatprincipos. Mērķis: izpētīt trombona spēles prasmju pilnveides teorētiskos aspektus un izstrādāt ķermeņa darbības psihofizioloģiskajos pamatprincipos balstītu vingrinā…
