Competitive advantage in a global market: The Case of the Norwegian Salmon Farming Industry A comparative study of the Chilean salmon farming industry
2018
Master's thesis Business Administration BE501 - University of Agder 2018 Purpose – This study tries to address the differentiation done by a mature industry as a comparative study to Felzensztein and Gimmon´s (2014) paper on the Chilean farmed salmon industry. It focuses on how firms might improve their performance in an international context. Choosing between either cost-advantage or differentiation as a form gaining a competitive advantage, this study further addresses the usage of the country of origin effect as a form of differentiation. Design/Methodology/Approach – The research unit of the thesis is set in the Norwegian salmon farming industry, alas the biggest producer of salmon in t…
Agency, expertise and working life skills : Students’ conceptions of the generic competences required in the world of work
2021
Fundamental changes in working life highlight the demands on the co-operation between the educational sector and working life, that should contribute to students’ employability. In addition to discipline-specific expertise, the development of working life skills has received increasing attention when it comes to employment. Drawing on data from Finnish universities of applied sciences (n=5) and universities (n=3), this paper examines how students (n=380) value the generic competences needed in in the world of work. The study is based on European reforms of labour markets and educational structures. This paper adds to current discourses around employability by highlighting differences betwee…
Current feminine authors of spanish cartoons. A further revision on the label ’feminine comic’
2011
This article, whose title is so generic, does not intend to be an exhaustive and historiographic list of women authoring contemporary Spanish comics. A priori, the deficiencies of the global label “woman comic” are questioned and the representative work of a group of draftswomen and scriptwriters is shown, since the 1980 decade (Madriz, El Cairo and El Víbora) to nowadays publications: Laura Pérez-Vernetti, Ana Juan, Ana Miralles, Sonia Pulido and Clara- Tanit. These authors are linked by a generational bond and offer a series of sights, paintstrokes, subjects and diverse plastic styles. The woman production phenomenon is observed along with its reception in ad hoc-collections published by …
Arrangements de cercles sur une sphère: Algorithmes et Applications aux modèles moléculaires representés par une union de boules
2008
Since the early work of Richard et al., geometric constructions havebeen paramount for the description of macromolecules and macro-molecularassemblies. In particular, Voronoï and related constructions have beenused to describe the packing properties of atoms, to compute molecularsurfaces, to find cavities. This thesis falls in this realm, andafter a brief introduction to protein structure, makes fourcontributions.First, using the sweep line paradigm of Bentley and Ottmann, wepresent the first effective algorithm able to construct the exactarrangement of circles on a sphere. Moreover, assuming the circlesstem from the intersection between spheres, we present a strategy to reportthe covering …
Automated uncertainty quantification analysis using a system model and data
2015
International audience; Understanding the sources of, and quantifying the magnitude of, uncertainty can improve decision-making and, thereby, make manufacturing systems more efficient. Achieving this goal requires knowledge in two separate domains: data science and manufacturing. In this paper, we focus on quantifying uncertainty, usually called uncertainty quantification (UQ). More specifically, we propose a methodology to perform UQ automatically using Bayesian networks (BN) constructed from three types of sources: a descriptive system model, physics-based mathematical models, and data. The system model is a high-level model describing the system and its parameters; we develop this model …
Assessing non-chemical weeding strategies through mechanistic modelling of blackgrass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.) dynamics
2010
; Because of environmental and health safety issues, it is necessary to develop strategies that do not rely on herbicides to manage weeds. Introducing temporary grassland into annual crop rotations and mechanical weeding are the two main features that are frequently used in integrated and organic cropping systems for this purpose. To evaluate the contribution of these two factors in interaction with other cropping system components and environmental conditions, the present study updated an existing biophysical model (i.e. AlomySys) that quantifies the effects of cropping system on weed dynamics. Based on previous experiments, new sub-models were built to describe the effects on plant survi…
Reklāmrakstu žanra analīze
2015
Mūsdienās reklāmraksti tiek izmantoti kā reklamēšanas veids, tiem ir īpaša struktūra un specifiskas iezīmes, kuru mērķis ir pārliecināt lasītājus iegādāties preci vai pakalpojumu. Izmantojot žanra analīzi, tika analizēta reklāmrakstu teksta struktūra. Teksta iekšējās iezīmes un pragmatiskās iezīmes arī tika izpētītas. Analīzes rezultāti atklāja, ka reklāmas funkcija tiek realizēta ar teksta struktūru, kas lielā mērā ir līdzīga reklāmu struktūrai. Tajā pašā laikā daži teksta etapi nodrošina arī informatīvo funkciju, kura tiek padarīta intensīvāka ar ziņu shēmas kategorijām, jo tās rada iespaidu par objektīvu informācijas pasniegšanu. Pozitīvas valodas izmantošana ir efektīva komunikācijas ta…

Spunti problematici in tema di dignità umana come bene penalmente rilevante
2011
l'articolo intende sottoporre a revisione critica la tendenza del diritto penale a concepire la dignità umana come un bene giuridico pregiudizialmente sottratto con il grappolo dei diversi interessi coinvolti dalle singole fattispecie incriminatrici. Una tendenza che bloccherebbe in partenza la possibile individuazione di tipologie casistiche da sottrarre all'area dei comportamenti punibili. Si sottolinea che, data la natura essenzialmente valutativa del concetto di dignità, l'argomentazione pubblic svolta in sede parlamentare o giurisdizionale non può indicare in positivo quali beni ammettere ala tutela penale, ma solo tracciare in negativo i limiti all'intervento punitivo secondo la logic…
