- It is important for small and medium-sized corporations to collaborate in networks in order to develop capacity, capability, and competence to perform product development and become suppliers of complete systems. The purpose of this case study is to identify barriers and to develop an analytical framework of inter-organizational collaboration in network settings. In this paper we present a tentative four-dimensional framework in terms of surface of integration, scope of integration, time horizon of integration, and intensity of integration. This framework can be used to analyze how network settings are developed, in terms of structural design of the network, the design of the workflow in collaborative settings, and the aspects of handling the psychological and social boundaries between people. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.

The Use Of Dependence Structure Matrix and Domain Mapping Matrix in Managing Uncertainty in Multiple Project Situations
- 2005

Ingår i: International Journal of Project Management. ; 23, s. 193-203

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Development of complex products is performed in multi-project environment in which it is crucial to explore interdependencies and manage the uncertainty with the information exchange and the understanding of the context. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a dependence structure matrix and domain mapping matrix approach that enables the systematic identification of inter- dependencies and relations in a Multi-project environment. These approaches enables clarifications of assumptions, the tractability of dependencies, explores the information needed within and between different departments, projects and people. This creates a transparency and enables the synchronization of actions through transformation of information and exploration of assumptions within and between domains. The outcomes of this process are situational visibility creating direction and accountability and the learning that takes place through communicating, reflecting, understanding, and acting.

A concept mission : Microbots for large-scale planetary surface and subsurface exploration

- This paper presents a new mission concept for planetary exploration, based on the deployment of a large number of small spherical mobile robots ("microbots") over vast areas of a planet's surface and subsurface, including structures such as caves and near-surface crevasses (see Figure 1). This would allow extremely large-scale in situ analysis of terrain composition and history. This approach represents an alternative to rover and lander-based planetary exploration, which is limited to studying small areas of a planet's surface at a small number of sites. The proposed approach is also distinct from balloon or aerial vehicle-based missions, in that it would allow direct in situ measurement. In the proposed mission, a large number (i.e. hundreds or thousands) of cm-scale, sub-kilogram microbots would be distributed over a planet's surface by an orbital craft and would employ hopping, bouncing and rolling as a locomotion mode to reach scientifically interesting artifacts in very rugged terrain. They would be powered by high energy-density polymer "muscle" actuators, and equipped with a suite of miniaturized imagers, spectrometers, sampling devices, and chemical detection sensors to conduct in situ measurements of terrain and rock composition, structure, etc. Multiple microbots would coordinate to share information, cooperatively analyze large portions of a planet's surface or subsurface, and provide context for scientific measurements. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Implicitly Heterogeneous Multi-Stage Programming

- Previous work on semantics-based multi-stage programming(MSP) language design focused on homogeneous designs, where the generating and the generated languages are the same. Homogeneous designssimply add a hygienic quasi-quotation and evaluation mechanism to abase language. An apparent disadvantage of this approach is that theprogrammer is bound to both the expressivity and performance characteristics of the base language. This paper proposes a practical means toavoid this by providing specialized translations from subsets of the baselanguage to different target languages. This approach preserves the homogeneous “look” of multi-stage programs, and, more importantly, thestatic guarantees about the generated code. In addition, compared to anexplicitly heterogeneous approach, it promotes reuse of generator sourcecode and systematic exploration of the performance characteristics of thetarget languages.To illustrate the proposed approach, we design and implement a translation to a subset of C suitable for numerical computation, and show thatit preserves static typing. The translation is implemented, and evaluatedwith several benchmarks. The implementation is available in the onlinedistribution of MetaOCaml.

A hybrid approach to outlier detection in the offset lithographic printing process
- 2005

- Artificial neural networks are used to model the offset printing process aiming to develop tools for on-line ink feed control. Inherent in the modelling data are outliers owing to sensor faults, measurement errors and impurity of materials used. It is fundamental to identify outliers in process data in order to avoid using these data points for updating the model. We present a hybrid, the process-model-network-based technique for outlier detection. The outliers can then be removed to improve the process model. Several diagnostic measures are aggregated via a neural network to categorize data points into the outlier and inlier classes. We demonstrate experimentally that a soft fuzzy expert can be configured to label data for training the categorization of neural network.

A SOM based model combination strategy
- 2005

Ingår i: Advances in Neural Networks – ISNN 2005 Second International Symposium on Neural Networks, Chongqing, China, May 30 - June 1, 2005, Proceedings, Part I. - Berlin : Springer Berlin/Heidelberg. - 9783540259121 ; , s. 461-466

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- A SOM based model combination strategy, allowing to create adaptive – data dependent – committees, is proposed. Both, models included into a committee and aggregation weights are specific for each input data point analyzed. The possibility to detect outliers is one more characteristic feature of the strategy.
