Full textDe senaste sju åren har de totala kostnaderna för att bedriva kollektivtrafik i Sverige ökat med över 30 procent i reala termer enligt siffror från myndigheten Trafikanalys. Jämförs en längre tidsperiod hittas samma mönster. En del av kostnadsökningen kan förklaras med ett ökat utbud under perioden, och en del med ökade priser på insatsfaktorer vilket kan mätas med ett prisindex sammansatt av kollektivtrafikbranschen. Det faktum att ungefär hälften av kollektivtrafikens kostnader täcks av offentliga medel ställer krav på ett ansvarsfullt utnyttjande, vilket i sin tur kräver information om hur kostnader och kostnadseffektivitet påverkas. Dylik information är begränsad för svensk kollektivtrafik, vilket är den huvudsakliga motiveringen till de två papperen i denna uppsats. I den tillhörande kappan beskrivs de senaste decenniernas utveckling i den svenska kollektivtrafiken, med ett större fokus på de senaste tio åren med branschens fördubblingsprojekt samt marknadsöppningen år 2012. Som nämndes tidigare har kostnaderna som helhet, samt olika typer av styckkostnader såsom kostnad per körd utbudskilometer, ökat i reala termer sedan 2007. Även om delar av kostnadsökningarna kan attribueras till ett ökat utbud eller prisökningar i insatsfaktorer kan utvecklingen ändå vara problematisk av åtminstone två anledningar. För det första verkar branschens ambition att fördubbla resandet till år 2020 ha gett en utbudsökning under åren kring 2010, och en resandeökning något år senare. Vad som är tydligt är dock att både kostnaden per utbudskilometer och passagerare ökat. I ljuset av detta blir det tveksamt om utbudsökningarna skett på rätt ställen. För det andra är det oklart om en prisökning i insatsfaktorerna kan ses som ”acceptabla” anledningar till branschens kostnadsökning. I den mån kollektivtrafikmyndigheter och/eller operatörer kan påverka priset på insatsfaktorer såsom bussar (särkrav, miljökrav etc.) eller personal (personalövertagande etc.) riskerar man ett endogent samband vilket gör att dessa, potentiellt kostnadsdrivande, faktorer lätt kan sorteras bort som allmänna prisökningar. I slutet av kappan förs även en diskussion om den bristande tillgången på offentlig data i svensk kollektivtrafik, och att kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna inte följer uppsatta EU förordningar relaterat till detta. Ett större utbud av data, och helst ett öppet sådant, skulle möjliggöra för mer jämförelser mellan kontrakt, utförare och kollektivtrafikmyndigheter, vilket i förlängningen tydligare skulle kunna påvisa bra och dåliga exempel i branschen och bidra ett bättre resursutnyttjande av skattemedel. Nedan följer en sammanfattning av de två papper som ingår i licentiatuppsatsen. Papper I, “Costs for Swedish Public Transport Authorities”, använder data från år 2012 på kontraktsnivå för att med ekonometriska metoder analysera hur olika kontraktsfaktorer påverkar kostnaderna i busskontrakt. Analysen utgår från en teoretisk modell visar på kostnadsmekanismer i de två vanligaste kontraktstyperna, och som ger några insikter om vilka resultat som kan förväntas från den empiriska analysen. De viktigaste resultaten från den ekonometriska analysen är att kostnaderna är högre om kontraktet körs i ett område med hög befolkningstäthet, eller om operatören av ett kontrakt har en offentlig ägare (kommun eller landsting). Incitamentsersättning till operatören kan inte påvisas ha en statistiskt signifikant påverkan på kostnaderna. Papper II, “Cost Efficiency in Swedish Public Transport” , har en liknande utgångspunkt som Papper I, men använder stokastisk frontanalys för att fokusera på kostnadseffektivitet och skillnader i denna mellan kollektivtrafikmyndigheter. Data från år 2013 används tillsammans med ett antal andra datakällor för att ta fram en kostnadsfront, där vissa avvikelser från denna attribueras som kostnadsineffektivitet. Resultaten påminner om de i Papper I, nämligen att kostnadseffektiviteten är lägre i tätbefolkade områden, samt i kontrakt som direkttilldelas en offentligt ägd operatör. En jämförelse av kollektivtrafikmyndigheternas (länens) kostnadseffektivitet visar att de flesta län inte skiljer sig åt. Skillnaden mellan den mest effektiva och 15e mest effektiva länet är ca 8 procent. Skillnaden är något större till Stockholms och Skåne län, som har tredje respektive näst lägsta kostnadseffektivitet, samt det sist placerade länet, Västmanland, som är cirka 30 procent mer ineffektiv än det bäst placerade.

Full textIt is generally accepted that cost growth in federal major defense acquisition programs (MDAPs) is partially attributable to inaccurate cost estimates. Cost analysts exhaustively analyze manpower and resources to provide accurate estimates, however the influence of transaction costs is often ignored in traditional cost estimates. This thesis investigates the association between cost growth and transaction costs, the real cost of business negotiations and program management. We collect MDAP cost threshold breach data and cross reference it with a proxy for MDAP transaction costs (Systems Engineering/Program Management Costs) to determine whether a correlation exists. We use multiple logistic regression models to analyze the binary outcome of breach or no breach. The results show that for MDAPs with cost-plus contracts there is a statistically significant relation between the likelihood of a cost threshold breach occurring and the relative magnitude of the MDAPs transaction costs; no such relation exists for fixed price contracts. Although these results show an association between cost threshold breaches and transaction costs, there is no evidence of causality between these two variables and our exploration of causality is a topic for future research.

Full textIn range safety and surveillance applications, it is helpful to have an array of sensitive, directional microphones. Using beamforming and feature extraction, one can use such an array to locate, track, and identify a variety of targets. This paper describes how one can construct such an array from sub-arrays of small, inexpensive, commercial off-the-shelf microphones. Each sub-array consists of a few dozen electrets condenser microphones which are closely spaced. The analog signals from the microphones are summed, digitized, and then combined with signals from other sub-arrays using a field programmable gate array device. The digital signal is then passed to a general purpose computer for further analysis.

Nuestro plan de negocios se focaliza en la satisfación de necesidades que tienen las empresas PYME del ámbito indus rial del área metropolitana. Según un estudio realizado por el equipo ejecutivo de COST DOWN, entre Noviembre y Diciembre de 2004, el 60% de éstas, en promedio, no posee una forma estructurada de trabajo para llevar e control de inventario y de materias primas, y el 64% no posee una forma estructurada para la obtención de los costos de producción. Por otra parte, el mismo estudio establece que los encuestados valoran un sistema vía Internet, que no signifique la instalación de platafo mas adicionales y que les permita mejorar su gestión en el control de inventario y costos. Nuestro servicio consiste en capturar y procesar la información de producción de las empresas asesoradas, que les permitirá ahorrar costos haciéndolas más eficientes. Nuestro modelo de negocios considera resolver dificultades de acceso y uso de la tecnología por medio de un sistema WEB en la modalidad ISP, lo que permite independizarse de las limitaciones de las empresas en dicha dimensión. Esto les posibilitará contar con información en línea para optimizar la toma de decisiones, mejorar su competitividad en el mercado y aumentar la ren abilidad de la inversión realizada, reflejándose en un beneficio monetario vía reducción de costos, cuyo monto dependerá de la realidad de cada empresa. Nuestra estra egia competitiva es la focalización, pues estaremos orientados a las medianas empresas del sector industrial en la región metropolitana, cuyo número asciende actualmente a 1.316. El equipo ejecutivo podrá poner su vasta experienc a al servicio de un número de PYMES mucho más grande que el que atiende un consultor normal, debido a su focalización en lo relacionado con la cadena productiva y gracias al uso de herramientas tecnológicas que multiplican su productividad. Para llevar a cabo este proyecto, se con empla una inversión inicial de UF 3.030, la cual será aportada en partes iguales por el equipo ejecutivo, constituido por Alejandra Carrasco quien ha diseñado e implementado estrategias de marketing en empresas de servicios, Juan Pablo Aguirre especialista en TI quien posee una empresa desde 1998 dedicada a desarrollar sistemas en la modalidad ISP e instalación de platafo mas de Internet, Patricio Cortés ejecutivo del sector financiero desde hace 17 años, dirigiendo equipos de venta y mantención de carteras de emp esas PYME del área metropolitana y José Luis Peña quien es jefe de control gestión en una empresa industrial, dentro de sus logros está liderar la implementación de sistemas de control de producción, comercial y corporativo que se encuentran en funcionamiento. Para el análisis financiero se consideró un horizonte de evaluación a 5 años, el cual contempla una capturación de 50 empresas para el primer año, arrojando una TIR de 80 % y un VAN de UF 5.760. Finalmente dado los antecedentes antes mencionados, y considerando el estudio de mercado realizado es atractivo para el equipo ejecutivo llevar a cabo el negocio.
