Best Practices for International eSourcing of Software Products and Services from the Service Providers' Perspective

2015

This research analyzes how eSourcing service providers can execute the Information and Communications Technology-enabled international sourcing of software-intensive systems and services (eSourcing) effectively. The extant literature falls short of providing a detailed enough set of best practices and supporting classes of information systems to help providers to manage and deliver effective services. This research presents a set of best practices for international eSourcing service providers to facilitate the execution, improvement, and management of international eSourcing services. The practices help providers to establish and execute a mature eSourcing life-cycle in order to overcome th…

IDENTIFICATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS FROM RED GRAPE POMACE

2018

The wine industry generates a great amount of waste every year, thus its valorization is of most importance. This study uses red, fermented pomace from Cabernet Sauvignon and Feteasca Neagra cultivars. The phenolic compounds were extracted using four different extractions and the content of total polyphenols was determined using a spectrophotometrical method. Several phenolic compounds were analyzed using an HPLC method. The Cabernet Sauvignon pomace had the highest content of total polyphenols and total phenolic compounds analyzed and of quercetin, rutin, ferulic acid and resveratrol, while the Feteasca Neagra pomace had the highest content of gallic acid, syringic acid, cinamic acid and (…

TRADITIONAL PRODUCTS AND THEIR ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SMES

2012

In the past years, the role of traditional products in the European economy has greatly increased, firstly through the supply of essential products and services for the local communities, but also through the creation of new work places in all the EU countries, including Romania. 99,1% of traditional products are being produced in our country in small and micro-enterprises, with a small number of employees, and which use traditional recipes, passed down from generation to generation - and the secret of which is kept strictly within the family. This paper aims to demonstrate the importance of developing these small businesses which produce and sell traditional products in Romania, and to ana…

User-Centered Development of Video Telephony for Servicing Mainly Older Users: Review and Evaluation of an Approach Applied for 10 Years

2006

A research and development (R&D) approach has been applied to video telephony (VT) in northern Finland since 1994 by broad consortia. The focus has been on the considerable involvement of ergonomics within the engineering and implementation of VT. This multidisciplinary participatory ergonomic R&D approach (PERDA) is described briefly, in general and through two cases. The user-centeredness should be discernible in this sociotechnical systemic entity. A consortium—comprising mainly manufacturers, individual and organizational users of technological products, and R&D organizations—serves as a natural context for product development. VT has been considered to have much potential for enhancing…

Caracterización espacial de parámetros biofísicos de la cubierta vegetal para la validación de productos derivados mediante teledetección : aplicació…

2006

El objetivo principal de esta tesis doctoral ha sido el desarrollar una metodología que permita la caracterización espacial a alta resolución de los parámetros biofísicos, LAI, FVC y FAPAR a partir de medidas in-situ, para su uso como verdad-terreno en la validación directa de productos biofísicos. Por otra parte, se ha llevado a cabo la validación indirecta de los productos de baja resolución para toda la Península Ibérica. The main objective of this thesis is to develop a methodology for the validation of coarse resolution satellite products, mainly focused on vegetation products derived using the SEVIRI instrument in the context of the LSA SAF projects.the methodology is based on the cha…

From soil to soil-less in horticulture: quality and typicity

2013

In this review, the technique of soil-less cultivation of horticultural crops is analysed, the main differences between this and traditional cultivation techniques are described, and the advantages and disadvantages of each method in relation to the others are identified. Soilless cultivation has revolutionised various sectors of vegetable and floriculture production, and recent years have also seen interest being shown by Italian fruit crop producers, particularly those involved in table grape viticulture. The various issues related to the use of this technique are described in relation to the needs of the substrate, water management, and mineral nutrition of the different species, and to …
