The author studies many aspects: from socioanthropological to linguistic and communicative, from economic up to politic ones.
Image inpainting using directional wavelet packets originating from polynomial splines
2020
The paper presents a new algorithm for the image inpainting problem. The algorithm is using a recently designed versatile library of quasi-analytic complex-valued wavelet packets (qWPs) which originate from polynomial splines of arbitrary orders. Tensor products of 1D qWPs provide a diversity of 2D qWPs oriented in multiple directions. For example, a set of the fourth-level qWPs comprises 62 different directions. The properties of the presented qWPs such as refined frequency resolution, directionality of waveforms with unlimited number of orientations, (anti-)symmetry of waveforms and windowed oscillating structure of waveforms with a variety of frequencies, make them efficient in image pro…
Nouvelles technologies et aide à la compréhension de documents techniques : Construction et expérimentation d'un simulateur de fonctionnement de grue…
2001
Reading skills are more and more required to succeed professional examination. French crane drivers are concerned with this problem. In order to help them, we have conducted a study with three main steps. First, we carried out a cognitive work analysis. Second, we test several analogical modalities of written presentations focusing on the construction of a specific simulator. Finally, two experiments are presented showing a significative effect of this simulator on the comprehension of cranes technical documentation.

"I felt like a lonely person in the desert" : a case study on factors moderating interunit communication in multinational headquarters-subsidiary rel…
2017
One of the biggest challenges for internationalizing businesses is to develop and maintain efficient internal communication processes across national and cultural borders. This thesis aims to examine what are the most important organizational structures and communicational practices for a successful multinational headquarters-subsidiary relationship, and what do the communicational practices, such as the mechanics of language use and interunit knowledge-transfer, imply about the efficiency of global co-operation. This study considers the experiences of one case company’s Finnish headquarters and Dutch subsidiary on internal communication in a crucial phase of internationalization. The data …
Decision making and decision communication in an engineer based organization
2010
The purpose of this thesis was to examine how decisions are defined, made and communicated in an engineer based working community. These processes in this study are reviewed from the point of view of organizational communication. This study gathers information about how organizations define decisions, how they use information and how it affects the decision making in individual, group and organizational level. The target organization for this thesis was a local automation engineering department of Metso Paper. Decision making and decision communication were studied using mixed method. The superiors of the organization were interviewed and the employees answered a questionnaire. The results …
Supporting employee engagement with internal communication for high reliability
2015
Tämä pro gradu-työ tarkastelee kirjallisuuden ja empiirisen tutkimuksen avulla työntekijöiden sitoutumista organisaatioissa, joiden toiminnalle korkea luotettavuusvaatimus on edellytys. Työntekijöiden sitoutuminen ja sen merkitys organisaation menestykselle on noussut kiinnostuksenkohteeksi niin käytännössä kuin akateemisen tutkimuksen piirissä. Sisäinen viestintä on yksi väline jolla sitoutumista voi tukea organisaatiossa, ja sillä on myös merkitystä organisaation toimintavarmuudelle. Työ on laadullinen tutkimus, joka toteutettu pääosin abduktiivisella tutkimusmetodilla. Työssä on sekä teoreettinen että empiirinen osuus. Teoriaosuus käsittelee työntekijöiden sit…
“Congratulations, you’re on TV!”: Middle-space performances of live tweeters during the FIFA World Cup
2018
Social television has transformed the traditional role of the television viewers by providing ‘ordinary people’ access to the public stage. This article describes how public access to television affected the dialogues of Finnish tweeters on Twitter during the massive media event of the FIFA World Cup. Through the lens of digital conversation analysis, the study shows how the media publicity of tweets changed the direction of the interaction between tweeters and transformed their roles vis-à-vis the television show, making one of them into a ‘media flasher’ and the others viewers of his or her performance. The publicity was constructed as important through noticings, congratulations, and com…
The hierarchy of needs for user experiences in virtual reality
2021
Virtual reality (VR) is rapidly becoming more widely adopted by various industries, and virtual content is just as rapidly becoming available for consumers. However, there is a lack of guidelines and standards for VR content to be held to in terms of experiential design. Because VR is a relatively new media form for consumers, there is a high risk of user attrition due to the novelty of the service. Therefore, if the first experience of the technology is with poorly made content, users will be much less likely to use VR again. Therefore, as various industries and organizations digitalize and adopt emerging technology such as VR, great care should be given to the way the virtual content and …
