Balancing food waste and sustainability goals in online food delivery: Towards a comprehensive conceptual framework
2022
Increasing food waste is a major threat to sustainability and food security. Recognizing the issue, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12 mandates reducing global food waste by 50 percent by 2030. This situation has also given impetus to academic research on consumer food waste in both household and out-of-home settings. However, food delivery apps (FDAs) remain under-researched from this perspective. This is a serious gap because operating under a business model that inherently facilitates food over-ordering, FDAs can be a major source of food waste. Understanding the demand-side factors that drive consumers to order more food than required to satiate their hunger can be…
Digitalizācijas process Eiropas Savienībā: Itālijas gadījums
2018
Digitalizācija ir izveidojusi ievērojami svarīgas pārmaiņas, kas Eiropas Savienībai un tās dalībvalstīm ir jāpieņem. Itālija tās digitālo procesu un prasmju vērtējumā ir zemāk par jebkuru citu ES dalībvalsti, tieši tāpēc šī situācija ir jāmaina un strauji jāuzlabo. Šī maģistra darba galvenais izvirzītais mērķis ir noteikt digitālizācijas svarīguma un ietekmes lomu Eiropā un Itālijā, lai atrastu iemeslus, kāpēc Itālija pēc šī kritērija ir viszemāk, salīdzinot ar pārējām ES dalībvalstīm, kā arī lai izdomātu un piedāvātu uzlabojumus Itālijas respondentu digitālajām prasmēm. Šī pētījuma rezultāts parāda, cik ES ir nepieciešami un svarīgi būt ne tikai digitālai, bet tikpat svarīga ir arī tās vēl…
INVESTIGATION OF THE UNDERGROUND BUILDING HERITAGE AND THE MECHANISM OF WATER FLOWING IN QANĀTS IN PALERMO THROUGH INNOVATIVE SURVEYING TECHNIQUES
2021
Abstract. The valorisation, protection and preservation policies for the underground building heritage are often difficult to implement due to an inadequate knowledge of hypogeal constructions. The complex and widespread underground structures of the vast “Cavo” Heritage (“horizontal wells”, “shelf wells” or “well tunnels”), so called qanāts, hidden underground and built over the centuries in Palermo, representing an evocative testimony to the history of water culture in the ancient city. Through the historical and constructive analyses and the implementation and development of measurement and 3D representation and visualization, first actions have been carried out. The paper will present t…

Unboxing co-creation of value: Users' hedonic and utilitarian drivers
2019
Value co-creation through involving users in service processes via resource integration is a focal service research interest. However, studies often take a firm-centric or generic approach and overlook value co-creation from the point view of an individual user. We address this gap by adopting a qualitative research approach and laddering interviews (n = 113) to examine users’ hedonic and utilitarian drivers for value co-creation behavior in five service system contexts. We argue that underlying differences exist among all service systems and contribute with a novel approach by depicting the differences in value-based motivations for users to co-create value. As practical implications, our …

Master's thesis Industrial Economics and Technology Management IND590 - University of Agder 2019 The rise of digitalization as one of the major trends in the world of business offersgreat challenges for organizations regarding technological knowledge. This is becausetechnology unwraps so rapid that it is difficult for organizations to sustain a ma-ture relation to technological knowledge, which in turn makes it more difficult tounderstand, master, and utilize new products and services. To resolve this issue,organizations tend to turn to consultancy firms with expertise in the technologicalfield. It is in such a setting that this thesis aims to examinehow consultancy firmsand their customers…
Information Integration, Coordination Failures, and Quality of Prescribing
2020
Poor information flows hamper coordination, potentially leading to suboptimal decisions in health care. We examine the effects of a nationwide policy of information integration on the quality of prescribing. We use the rollout of an electronic prescribing system in Finland and prescription-level administrative data. We find no effect on the probability of co-prescribing harmful drug combinations in urban regions. In rural regions, this probability reduces substantially, by 35 percent. The effect is driven by prescriptions from unspecialized physicians and from multiple physicians. Improving the local information environment thus enhances coordination and narrows differences in the quality o…
