Movahedi, Zahra. "A business process approach for application development in wireless sensor and actuator networks." Thesis, Université Paris-Saclay (ComUE), 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015SACLL002.
Full textWireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSANs) is an emergent technology for various application areas such as security and surveillance applications, traffic control, energy control, etc. Designing and developing applications using these technologies remain, however, a challenging task. Indeed, finding the relevant sensors and actuators, and combining them in a proper way in order to achieve a specific goal is not an easy task and requires several skills detained by different stakeholders. Moreover, sensor/actuator environments are inherently highly dynamic. Furthermore, current applications are in general tightly coupled to the underlying infrastructure which hampers their reuse and flexibility to changes.In this thesis, we present a process-oriented and service-based approach for supporting the development of adaptive WSAN applications. Our approach decouples between the application logic and its implementation. A design-time model is first specified, as a flow of activities, which is then deployed in a particular environment. Decoupling the application logic from its implementation enables on one hand to foster the reuse at the application level and on the other hand to adapt the same application to different environments and situations. To assist designers in specifying new WSAN applications, we propose two methods: 1)activity and orchestration reuse through data flows, and 2)activity recommendation through control flows. Moreover, the same recommendation technique enables providing fault-tolerant mechanism enabling a WSAN application to adapt to changes due to sensor failures or constraints violation. Our approach has been validated by realistic use cases that have been implemented in the context of the European project VITRO platform and the Zodianet platform

Full textHållbarhet håller idag på att utvecklas från ett område som de senaste åren varit en operationellt fokuserad verksamhet till något som mer och mer närmar sig strategiarbete. Som en del av den här utvecklingen börjar många företag konstatera att integrationen av hållbarhet i deras affärsutvecklingsarbete blir en fråga som blir allt viktigare. Hemfrid har de senaste 20 åren växt fram till ett marknadsledande företag inom hushållsnära tjänster där hemstädning för privatpersoner är den dominerande tjänsten. Hemfrid har valt att fokusera på att ge sina anställda kollektivavtal och trygg anställning och fokusera på sina anställda och kunder och i dagsläget tittar man på många nya affärsutvecklingsmöjligheter för att fortsätta erbjuda sina kunder hjälp i sina hem. I och med Hemfrids fokus på hållbarhet med schyssta arbetsvillkor och miljövänliga produkter har de även insett vikten av att även på ett tidigt stadium få in hållbarhetstänk i sitt affärsutvecklingsarbete. Denna rapport syftar därför till att skapa en modell och verktyg för Hemfrid för att integrera hållbarhetsaspekter i deras affärsutvecklingsarbete. Hemfrid-modellen är framtagen med de globala hållbarhetsmålen som utgångspunkt där olika kriterier identifierades inom varje mål som Hemfrid sedan kan utvärdera sina affärsutvecklingsprojekt utifrån. En litteraturstudie är även gjord där det identifierats nio ytterligare modeller inom hållbarhet respektive affärsutveckling som på olika sätt varit användbara för att skapa kriterier och övergripande användning av Hemfrid-modellen. Varje mål är viktat utifrån Hemfrids nuvarande verksamhet och strategi för att spegla företagets hållbarhetsprioriteringar. Verktyget är framtaget i Excel, baseras på en Multikriterieanalys och ger Hemfrid ett enkelt sätt att på en 5-gradig skala, för varje mål, utvärdera om kriterierna förändras från en skala mycket sämre till mycket bättre jämfört med dagens produkter eller tjänster. Verktyget visualiserar sedan om projektet som helhet är bra eller dåligt hållbarhetsmässigt samt vilka mål man har väldigt positiv påverkan på och bör kommunicera mot sina kunder samt vilka man bör se över och förbättra. Vidare har verktyget testats på två olika affärsutvecklingsprojekt där representanter från hållbarhetsavdelningen och affärsutvecklingsenheten fått ge feedback på användning och modellen har även presenterats och diskuterats tillsammans med Hemfrids ledning för att förankra modellens användande inom bolaget. Slutligen gjordes även en SWOT-analys där modellen visade vara över lag positiv. De negativa delarna med modellen ligger i att den är en förenkling av verkligheten och inte kommer kunna ta upp alla hållbarhetsaspekter som finns samt att det i användandet av modellen finns risk att man gör subjektiva bedömningar och ger sig själv bättre poäng än vad man egentligen borde. Modellen kommer dock kraftigt förenkla integrationen av hållbarhet i affärsutvecklingsprocesserna på Hemfrid och kommer användas för att försäkra att Hemfrid fortsätter vara starka inom hållbarhet och att erbjuda sina kunder smarta lösningar.

Full textIn this thesis the Airy theory, which is used as theoretical model for the Standard Rainbow Thermometry, has been improved to minimize the discrepancies it was presenting respect to more complex and complete theories and it has been generalized to spherical particles presenting a spherically symmetric refractive index gradient. This generalized model has been used to evaluate the size and temperature of a n-octane burning droplet in standard atmosphere with good results. The generalization of the Standard Rainbow Thermometry to multiple particles, Global Rainbow Thermometry, is presented both theoretically and experimentally and the role of the particle asphericity in the light scattered intensity is evaluated.
Two experimental application of the Global Rainbow Thermometry are reported. The first one concerns the measurement of size and refractive index of silicon oil droplets suspended in an aqueous bulk. This experiment allows the Global Rainbow Thermometry validation through the comparison with measurements simultaneously obtained with well known experimental techniques as Back-Light scattering and thermocouple measurement with satisfactory results.
The second experiment concerns Global Rainbow Thermometry measurement performed on an evaporating flat-fan water spray. The results obtained, both for temperature and for size, are in satisfactory agreement with predictions already done by other authors and with numerical simulations performed by the engineering code CASIMIRE.

Title: Organizational innovation processes and network relationship development-“The case study of Athera Biotechnologies and AstraZeneca R&D”
Authors: Marina Tasheva and Patchara Thaisrivichai
Advisor: Bengt Olsson
Research Problem: It has been known that developing a novel drug in pharmaceutical companies is a complex and expensive process. A company within these industries is forced to increase its innovativeness in order to compete with others. In this case study we will examine Athera Biotechnologies AB and AstraZeneca R&D respectively and how both companies promote, develop, sustain and enhance organizational innovation. At the same time we will also examine what is the two companies’ business strategy when it comes to networks relationship development.
Aim of thesis: The main purpose of our thesis is to compare two Swedish pharmaceutical companies and to see what are the differences and similarities in the way they foster organizational innovation processes.
Method: The method used for analyzing the collected data and information in our research is qualitative. We decided to use this method to examine the two companies’ organizational innovation processes and networks development. Further on we have collected both primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected through two semi-structured interviews with open questions. Secondary data was gathered from companies’ official web sites, annual reports and different publications and articles.
Conclusion: Our findings indicate that organizational innovation is crucial for pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies to sustain their competitive advantage in the rapid changing environment within this industry. Further more, entrepreneurial culture, corporate culture and networks and partnerships are the main factors that help AstraZeneca R&D and Athera to develop, maintain and enhance their organizational innovation. This in turn leads to the ability of the firms to successfully propose, adopt, develop and implement any new idea in relation to certain product or process.
Key words: Organizational Innovation, Entrepreneurial Culture, Corporate Culture, Networks and Partnership, Entrepreneurship

Full textMany companies are currently focusing on how to stay innovative, how to innovate and how to create an innovation climate in their companies. Why is innovation vital to companies? New Product Development (NPD) can be a key factor in this regard. Companies believe that NPD is their life blood; it can be the better way to survive firmly and be more competitive. In addition, the strategy of how to manage NPD process effectively and efficiently is becoming a powerful way of achieving a competitive edge. As Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a significant role in South African economic development, it is critical for companies especially (SMEs) to seek an ideal way to manage innovation productively. However, to be innovative is not easy for any organization and it should be managed effectively. The effective management of innovation and NPD in SMEs is investigated in this study. Innovation and NPD has already become the key drivers of sustainability and competitiveness for many companies especially SMEs. Innovation and NPD as the main subjects that are carefully studied, discussed and understood in larger corporations and multinational enterprises. It would appear that the same cannot always be said when it comes to SMEs.

Chapter 1. Copper-Catalyzed Arylation of Stabilized Carbanions A mild, general catalytic system for the synthesis of [alpha]-aryl malonates has been developed. Aryl iodides bearing a variety of functional groups can be effectively coupled to diethyl malonate in high yields using inexpensive and widely available reagents, making this a superior method to those previously described that employ copper reagents or catalysts. The functional group tolerance of the process developed makes it complementary to analogous palladium-catalyzed couplings. Importantly, a set of mild reaction conditions has been developed that minimize product decomposition, a problem that had not been addressed previously in the literature. In addition, the utilization of aryl bromides as coupling partners has been investigated, as well as the use of other classes of nucleophilic stabilized carbanions. Chapter 2. Synthesis of Oxindoles from a-Haloacetanilides via Palladium-Catalyzed C-H Functionalization We have discovered a palladium-catalyzed reaction that efficiently produces oxindoles from a-haloacetanilides through a net functionalization of an arene C-H bond. The high levels of regioselectivity observed in this cyclization obviate the need for highly functionalized aromatic substrates to effect desired ring closure. Moreover, the breadth of functional groups compatible with the reaction conditions is vastly greater than that of analogous Lewis acid-mediated processes. Extensive mechanistic work has been conducted, including kinetic isotope effect and linear free energy relationship studies.
(cont.) A number of plausible pathways are consistent with our data and with previously published examples of palladium-catalyzed C-H functionalization processes. Chapter 3. Synthesis of DAPHAnalogs via Palladium-Catalyzed Amination DAPH (4,5-dianilinophthalimide) has previously been shown to reverse the formation of neurotoxic fibrils associated with Alzheimer's disease. We have developed a synthetic route to DAPH and structurally-related analogs that employs palladium- catalyzed amination as the key bond-forming step. The requisite substrates are easily obtained, and their coupling with substituted anilines proceeds in generally high yields. Thus, a variety of DAPH analogs can be quickly accessed in a modular fashion. In addition, the route described herein should also be amenable to the incorporation of other classes of nucleophiles into the molecular framework. The results of biological assays conducted thus far will serve as a guide for further lead optimization

Full textA key aspect in overcoming the energy and environmental challenges is to improve the efficiency of existing and new processes. Nowadays, almost all major chemicals are produced by catalytic processes. However, a better understanding of the reaction pathways and kinetics is needed. In the field of wastewater treatment, catalytic ozonation is a typical example of this problem. In this study, catalytic microreactors were used as innovative analytical tools for the determination of kinetics of catalytic ozonation and were elaborated by using low pressure plasma processes for the deposition and activation of iron and oxide-based catalysts on polymer-based materials. Catalytic ozonation with pyruvic acid as a refractory probe compound was performed with both catalysts. HPLC measurements showed the inactivity of the iron oxide layer compared to the cobalt oxide one which led to 20 % of degradation. The effect was doubled when the latter was post-treated by an argon plasma, demonstrating the role and importance of the plasma post-treatment step. A numerical study dealing with the reactions taking place on the surface of the catalyst was carried out using the Comsol Multiphysics software and showed that the model partially fitted the experimental data due to the lack of information. However, access to the reactions rate constants of the intermediate species generated during the catalytic ozonation step could be achieved through the use of the Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy technique and would lead to an efficient tool to predict the relevance and the direction of future improvement strategies regarding catalyzed chemical reactions

Full textInstitutions of higher learning are operating in an environment that is continuously informed by the markets and government regulations, hence the need for continuous improvement initiatives in order to remain relevant to the dynamic changes in higher education. The improvements are done by reviewing the course content, operations, and business processes, which includes an application and admission process. This study analyses the residence application and admission process (RAAP). The business processes and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system support the realisation of the application and admission process of the university. The review of the current application and admission process will be based on business processes, business process reengineering, and the business process modelling theory. Therefore, the problem statement for the study is that the impact of information flow during the application and admission of students for residency at the university involves business processes that are inefficient and ineffective. This results in mistakes being made by administrators, and students who are dissatisfied. The study is based on two research questions: Firstly, what strategies can be used to improve the application and admission process of the role players at the selected tertiary institution, and secondly, how does the application and admission process affect service delivery to the students and residence administrators at the selected tertiary institution? The aim of the study is to explore how the participating students and administrators in the residence application and admission process perceive the efficiency of university business processes. A further aim is to explore how the processes can be reengineered to fulfil the requirements of the students and administrators. The research methodology employed to resolve the problem logically is qualitative in nature. A research paradigm guides the actions of the researcher with regard to the generation and interpretation data, which results in knowledge production. The inductive research approach is well suited for the research strategy. For the purpose of this study, a case study strategy is deemed suitable because of its qualitative nature, and comprehensive knowledge of the university processes is required to understand and address the research problem. The unit of analysis of the study is the university’s administrative department business processes. The purposive, non-randomly selected students who applied for residency and the employees of the applicable departments within the university form the unit of observation, which is also a source of data. The data are collected by means of interviews using semi-structured questionnaires, with the samples being non-random and purposively selected. The data collected in the case study are then be summarised and categorised into themes. The themes are uses to present the “As-Is” and the “To-Be” application and admission process.

Cell migration is a dynamic process essential for many fundamental physiological functions, including wound repair and the immune response. Migration relies on precisely orchestrated events that are regulated in a spatially and temporally controlled manner. Most traditional approaches for studying migration, such as genetic methods or the use of chemical inhibitors, do not offer insight into these important components of protein function. However, chemical tools, which function on a more rapid timescale and in localized regions of the cell, are capable of providing real-time information about protein activity. Herein, the development and application of chemical approaches to investigate proteins central to cell migration are presented. Myosin II, an ATPase motor protein required for cell motility, is activated by phosphorylation of the associated myosin regulatory light chain (mRLC) protein at Serl9. To generate a photoactivated mRLC variant that offers control over the timing and localization of myosin activity, the mRLC has been prepared by expressed protein ligation for the site-specific incorporation of 1-(2-nitrophenyl)ethyl (NPE)-caged phosphoserine at position 19. The NPE caging group masks the phosphate functionality and inhibits protein function until irradiation at 365 nm releases the native phospho-mRLC to restore myosin activity. Introduction of the caged mRLC into cells enables interrogation of the role of myosin in coordinating cell contractility. To expand the scope of the caging approaches, the NPE caging group has been applied in concert with the [7-(diethylamino)coumarin-4-yl]methyl (DEACM) group, which is released by irradiation at 420 nm, to enable two different phosphopeptides to be sequentially released within one system. Preparation of DEACM-caged phosphoamino acid building blocks for solid phase peptide synthesis enables convenient incorporation of these residues into peptides and proteins. This sequential uncaging approach has been exploited to initiate and subsequently inhibit a biochemical reaction in an enzyme-independent fashion using two wavelengths of light. Finally, a fluorogenic sensor to monitor the real-time activity of the GTPase Cdc42, an essential regulator of migratory processes, has been developed. The solvatochromic fluorophore 4-N,N-dimethylamino-1,8-naphthalimide has been incorporated into a protein fragment that binds only the activated conformation of Cdc42. This sensor reports Cdc42 activation through significant increases in fluorescence and has been applied in a cellular context to monitor endogenous Cdc42 activity. This fluorogenic sensor and the caging approaches together demonstrate the power of chemical tools for interrogating diverse aspects of cell migration.

Se han considerado distintos tipos de materiales tales como perovskitas (BSCF y LSCF), fluoritas (CGO) y materiales composites, así como distintas arquitecturas de membrana. y activación catalítica para optimizar la permeación y la selectividad/rendimiento en reacciones químicas. Para el BSCF se estudió la influencia del espesor y el uso de soportes porosos en la permeación de O2, con una mejora para las membranas más finas, y también el papel de los soportes porosos, contribuyendo con una resistencia adicional en el proceso de permeación. El estudio permitió también conocer más en profundidad los procesos que afectan a los distintos tipos de membranas, y establecer un modelo de permeación para membranas. Se recurrió a la activación catalítica mediante la adición de capas porosas de BSCF, obteniendo así mejores resultados para las membranas con capas en ambos lados. El concepto de membranas de BSCF activadas superficialmente se consideró también para la producción de C2H4 a partir de la deshidrogenación oxidativa de etano (ODHE), obteniendo rendimientos de C2H4 muy elevados. Membranas de BSCF con geometría tubular fueron caracterizadas para aplicaciones de producción de O2 y C2H4 mediante acoplamiento oxidativo de metano (OCM). Se consideró al LSCF para su uso en aplicaciones con atmósferas conteniendo CO2. Se desarrollaron membranas soportadas en soportes porosos de LSCF mediante tape casting y freeze-casting, realizando completos estudios de permeación, además de estudiar el tipo de soporte poroso ofreciendo menos resistencia a la difusión de los gases. Pese que para ambos tipos de membranas se obtuvieron muy buenos flujos de oxígeno, incluso bajo condiciones de CO2, para el caso de membranas con soporte fabricado mediante freeze-casting se consiguieron mayores valores de permeación, optimizándolos incluso con la activación catalítica. Los materiales con estructura fluorita poseen alta estabilidad bajo condiciones de reacción (atmósferas reductoras) o cuando son expuestos a CO2 (aplicaciones de producción de energía). Sin embargo, los valores de permeación suelen ser muy bajos. Se consideró una membrana de CGO-Co de 40 micras de espesor activada con nanopartículas de Pd para llevar a cabo un estudio de sus propiedades para la producción de O2, su comportamiento en contacto con CO2 y con atmósferas conteniendo CH4. La buena estabilidad demostrada y la mejora sustancial de los flujos de O2 bajo ambientes reductores, hacen que este tipo de materiales posean propiedades prometedoras para aplicaciones de oxicombustión y reacciones químicas. Se realizó un estudio con materiales composites formados por NFO-CTO. Una evaluación del contenido en CTO y su relación con la permeación de O2, resultó en mayores valores para composiciones con mayor contenido en CTO. Un composite consistente en 50NFO-50CTO se consideró para la realización de tests bajo condiciones de oxicombustión, con presencia de SO2. Pese al notable descenso en los flujos de O2, el material resultó ser completamente estable tras una exposición continuada al SO2. Un amplio estudio del efecto del CO2 y del SO2 sobre las reacciones superficiales se realizó mediantes medidas de EIS en electrodos de 60NFO-40CTO, demostrando que el SO2 afecta significativamente a las reacciones superficiales mediante procesos de adsorción competitiva en los centros activos. Se minimizó el efecto del SO2 sobre las reacciones de intercambio superficial al activar las membranas con capas catalíticas porosas de 60NFO-40CTO con distintos catalizadores, confirmando posteriormente esta mejora en tests de permeación en las mismas condiciones. Así mismo, se optimizó notablemente la permeación de las membranas de 60NFO-40CTO reduciendo el espes
La present tesi tracta sobre el desenvolupament de membranes ceràmiques per a la producció d'O2, així com del seu ús en diverses aplicacions industrials (producció d'energia, indústria química). S'han considerat diversos materials tals com perovskites (BSCF i LSCF), fluorites (CGO) i materials composites, així com diferents arquitectures de membrana i l'activació catalítica per a millorar la permeació i la sel·lectivitat/rendiment de les reaccions químiques. Per al BSCF s'estudià la influència de l'espessor i l'ús de suports porosos en la permeació d'O2, amb una millora dels fluxos d'O2 per al cas de les membranes més fines, i també el paper dels suports porosos, els quals contribueixen afegint una resistència al procés de permeació. L'estudi també va permetre conèixer més en profunditat els processos que afecten als diferents tipus de membranes, i establir un model de permeació per a membranes. Es va recórrer a l'activació catalítica mitjançant l'adició de capes poroses de BSCF, obtenint així millors resultats per a les membranes activades a ambdós costats. El concepte de membranes de BSCF activades superficialment es va considerar també per a la producció d'etilè a mitjançant la deshidrogenació oxidativa d'età (ODHE), obtenint rendiments de C2H4 molt elevats. Membranes de BSCF amb geometria tubular van ser caracteritzades per a aplicacions de producció d'O2 i C2H4 mitjançant l'acoplament oxidatiu de metà (OCM). Es va considerar al LSCF per al seu ús en aplicacions amb atmosferes contenint CO2. Així doncs, es van desenvolupar membranes suportades sobre suports porosos de LSCF fabricats per tape càsting i freeze càsting. Es van realitzar estudis complets de permeació per a ambdós casos, a més d'estudiar el tipus de suport porós que ofereix una menor resistència a la difusió dels gasos. Malgrat que es van obtindré molts bons fluxos d'O2 per als dos tipus de membranes, inclús sota condicions amb CO2, per al cas de les membranes amb suport fabricat per freeze càsting es van aconseguir majors valors de permeació, sent inclús optimitzats amb l'activació catalítica. Els materials amb estructura fluorita destaquen per l'alta estabilitat sota condicions de reacció (atmosferes reductores) o quan són exposats a CO2 (aplicacions per a la producció d'energia). Malgrat això, els valors de permeació solen ser molt baixos. Es va considerar una membrana de CGO-Co de 40 micras d'espessor activada amb partícules de Pd per a realitzar un estudi sobre les seues propietats en quant a la producció d'O2, el seu comportament amb el contacte amb CO2 i atmosferes reductores contenint CH4. La bona estabilitat demostrada i una millora substancial dels fluxos d'O2 sota ambients reductors fan que aquest tipus de material presente propietats prometedores per a aplicacions d'oxicombustió i reaccions químiques. Es va realitzar un estudi sobre materials composites formats per NFO-CTO. Es va realitzar una avaluació del contingut en CTO i la relació amb la permeació, observant una millora de la permeació amb un major contingut de CTO. Un composite consistent en 50NFO-40CTO es va considerar per a la realització de tests de permeació en condicions d'oxicombustió amb presència de SO2. Malgrat el notable descens en els fluxos d'O2, el material resultà ser estable després d'una exposició continuada al SO2. Es mesurà l'efecte del CO2 i del SO2 sobre les reaccions superficials fent ús de la tècnica d'EIS en elèctrodes de 60NFO-40CTO. Demostrant que el SO2 afecta significativament a les reaccions superficials degut a una adsorció competitiva O2-SO2 als centres actius. Es minimitzà l'efecte del SO2 sobre les reaccions superficials al activar les membranes amb capes poroses de 60NFO-40CTO amb diferents catalitzadors. Aquestes capes van ser caracteritzades per EIS sota condicions de SO2, confirmant posteriorment la millora al realitzar tests de permeació. S'optimitzà notablement la perme

is based on private financial actors forming the global economic network, these cities are confronting not only lifestyle changes, but also architectural and urban transformations. An important urban element produced by cities in the global economic network is the new central business district, which house vertical building forms with high demographic density. As a complex urban element serving for national and international arena as service center of liberal economy and an urban prestige symbol of the city, design and planning process of new central business districts is gaining priority to solve complexity of its structure considering public use. The aim of this study is to explore the physical public space due to be created in the new central business district in Istanbul, which has been developing along the Bü

kdere Avenue. Critically concentrating on its design and the planning process and future strategies in a comparative study with other global city examples of Paris, Berlin and Singapore, which have been giving specialized priority to the planning phase and future strategies for their new central business district developments, it is aimed to develop a substantial basis for the conceptualization of how the new central business district can be implemented in Istanbul.
