A Gamified Mobility Experience
2020
We believe in the use of urban games to define new enjoyable experiences, change citizens’ unsustainable habits and educate them to new environment-and social-friendly ones. This paper presents MUV, an innovative action that has the power to engage citizens and foster sustainable mobility behaviors. MUV complements engaging HMIs with a participatory method within an iterative innovation process called the virtuous cycle (understand, involve, co-create, implement, experiment). The innovation process has led to a new game dynamic: Mobility as a Sport. It results in a rewarding personal mobility experience; the same rewarding sensations the athletes feel when they improve their results.
Collaborative Content Downloading in VANETs with Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation
2019
Vehicle collaborative content downloading has become a hotspot in current vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) research. However, in reality, the highly dynamic nature of VANET makes users lose resources easily, and the transmission of invalid segment data also wastes valuable bandwidth and storage of the users&rsquo
INVESTIGATING MARKET POTENTIAL FOR STREAMING SUBSCRIPTION MODEL IN EMERGING ECONOMIES : A CASE OF NIGERIA
2018
Master's thesis Music management MU501 - University of Agder 2018 Building on two marketing theories: the product and marketing concept, this study conceptualizes how music sampling, consumers’ income and attitude affect streaming subscription in Nigeria. The aim is to test whether efficient market for streaming subscription could be developed in emerging economies and contribute to growth in the world digital music markets. The study used a binomial logistic regression to analyse 230 observations obtained from a survey data to estimate a conceptual framework. Results show that music sampling positively affect streaming subscription. Conversely, consumers’ income and attitude are both not s…
Mikromobilitātes klimata paplašināšanās iespējas Ziemeļvalstīs - iespējas un draudi
2020
Anton Martikainen rakstītajā maģistra darbā tiks pētīta mikromobilitāte, kas specializējas e-skūteros – šobrīd esošs fenomens, kas aizsākās 2018. gadā Amerikas Savienotajās Valstīs un ienāca Eiropā 2019. gada sākumā. Darba teorētiskā pieeja ir balstīta uz teoriju, kas saistīta ar paplašināšanos - mobilitāte kā pakalpojums un trešo pušu loģistikas teorija, kurai ir svarīga loma e-skūteru nozarē. Mikromobilitāte ir kļuvusi par aktuālu tēmu visā pasaulē, mainot veidu, kā cilvēki pārvietojas. Autors savā pētījumā definēs mikromobilitāti, analizēs galvenos tirgus dalībniekus un precīzi norādīs uz iespējām un draudiem un, kā tos redz iekšējās un ārējās iesaistītās puses. Darba izstrādes laikā tik…
Piegādes ķēdes vadības efektivitātes novērtējums mazumtirdzniecības zīmolos: IKEA piemērs
2020
Mazumtirdzniecības nozares uzņēmumiem piegādes ķēdes vadība ir svarīgs aspekts. Tomēr joprojām daudziem no tiem ir grūtības ar efektīvās piegādes ķēdes novērtēšanas sistēmas radīšanu un ieviešanu. Šī darba galvenais mērķis ir izveidot dzīvotspējīgu piegādes ķēdes novērtēšanas sistēmas modeli mazumtirdzniecības uzņēmumiem. Darba gaitā autors ir izpētījis un izanalizējis pieejamu literatūru par piegādes ķēdes pārvaldību un tās novērtēšanas sistēmas efektivitāti, izpētījis esošo piegādes ķēdes novērtēšanas sistēmu IKEA uzņēmumā, kas kalpoja par pētījumu objektu, kā arī veicis intervijas ar nozares ekspertiem piegādes ķēžu pārvaldībā. Rezultātā autoram izdevās identificēt un klasificēt radītāju…
Loģistikas sistēmas pilnveidošana SIA "DAW Baltic"
2017
Bakalaura darbā "Loģistikas sistēmas pilnveidošana SIA DAW Baltica" tiek analizēta uzņēmuma loģistikas sistēma, kā arī izstrādāti priekšlikumi tās pilnveidošanai un uzlabošanai. Tiek analizēta šī brīža transportēšanas sistēma, kā arī pasūtījumu atlases procedūras noliktavā. Darba rezultātā tiek secināts, ka sava transporta iegāde un uzturēšana konkrētajam uzņēmumam izmaksātu vairāk kā šī brīža ārpakalpojumu sniedzēju izmantošana. Analizējot preču atlasi pasūtījumam noliktavā, tiek secināts, ka ieviestā sistēma ir devusi uzlabojumus kļūdu skaita samazināšanai, taču to iespējams vēl vairāk uzlabot, modernizējot sistēmu. Darbā ir 56 lapaspuses, 7 tabulas, 16 attēli un 2 pielikumi.
Validation procedures in radiological diagnostic models. Neural network and logistic regression
1999
The objective of this paper is to compare the performance of two predictive radiological models, logistic regression (LR) and neural network (NN), with five different resampling methods. One hundred and sixty-seven patients with proven calvarial lesions as the only known disease were enrolled. Clinical and CT data were used for LR and NN models. Both models were developed with cross validation, leave-one-out and three different bootstrap algorithms. The final results of each model were compared with error rate and the area under receiver operating characteristic curves (Az). The neural network obtained statistically higher Az than LR with cross validation. The remaining resampling validatio…
Road Functional Classification Using Pattern Recognition Techniques
2019
The existing international standards suggest a methodology to assign a specific functional class to a road, by the values of some features, both geometrical and use-related. Sometimes, these characteristics are in contrast with each other and direct the analyst towards conflicting classes for a road or, worse, one or more of these features vary heterogeneously along the road. In these conditions, the analyst assigns the class that, by his capability and experience, he retains the most appropriate, in a very subjective way. On the contrary, the definition of an automatic procedure assuring an objective identification of the most appropriate functional class for each road would be desirable. …
The lagged influence of organizations' human resources practices on employees' career sustainability: The moderating role of age
2020
Abstract Research has progressed in theoretically and conceptually defining career sustainability and its indicators. However, research is needed to understand the relationship between those indicators and the way individual and organizational factors contribute to it over time. We add to this literature by considering performance and wellbeing as indicators of sustainable careers. Specifically, we considered patterns in the relationship between performance and wellbeing, used as proxies for a sustainable career, and the effects of different human resource (HR) practices and age on career sustainability. Data came from two waves of 653 employees and their supervisors in 26 organizations in …
A value sensitive ABM of the refugee crisis in The Netherlands
2019
We develop an agent based model to characterize the wellbeing of newcomers (i.e. asylum seeking refugees) in the context of asylum logistics using Schwartz’s theory of values. The model produces recommendations for decision-makers with respect to avoiding catastrophic outcomes and maximizing best case outcomes. We conduct analysis to show that while a relatively simple set of conditions is necessary to avoid catastrophic outcomes, these conditions are insufficient to maximize the best case outcomes. Furthermore, the conditions that maximize one best case outcome do so at the expense of another. The result is a platform for decision-makers to understand tradeoffs in policies for government a…
