Thesis Purpose: This study aims to test whether electronic word-of-mouth in the form of comments on twitter are representative of overall word-of-mouth. The relationship between marketing, twitter comments, sales is tested and compared to word-of-mouth theory and previous studies. Methodology: A combination of cross-sectional research and case study research methodologies were used to understand T
The obligation to use a registered trade mark stipulated in trade mark law exists almost in every jurisdiction. It states that once a trade mark has been registered, the owner must show within several years that the mark has been put into genuine use in respect of the goods or services for which it has been registered. However, the interpretation of the term ‘genuine use’ is vague and it is unclea
This paper describes the development of software that generates graphical icons for classes written in Modelica, an object oriented language for modeling complex systems. The icon rendering is developed as a new feature in the JModelica IDE, a plugin for the multi-language software development environment Eclipse. The JModelica IDE is included in the distribution of the open source project JModeli
The regulation of the European parliament and the Council (EG) nr. 864/2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations is known as Rome II. Rome II contains a conflict rule in art. 7 which determines the law applicable to a claim involving environmental damages connected with more than one state. This conflict rule does not only apply to cases of damage to property and persons, but also

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the size of impact that oil price shocks have on the stock market returns. The secondary purpose is to investigate which factors have greater influence on stock market returns in recent conditions in comparison to oil price shocks and to explore systematic effect across several countries.The study is carried out by applying unrestricted Vector Autor
As product life cycles continue to shorten, the importance of having an efficient innovation and product development process becomes increasingly important for any company operating in a competitive market. The company’s development process model, from the very first product planning phase in which a suitable portfolio of projects is created and maintained via the intermediary phases until the pro
It is well-known that the classical Poisson kernel for the unit disc $\D$ in the complex plane is naturally associated to the Laplacian. In this paper we establish a similar relationship between the kernel $$ P_2(z)=\frac{1}{2}\frac{(1-\lvert z\rvert^2)^3}{\lvert 1-z\rvert^4}, \quad z\in\D,$$ and a certain second order differential operator $D_2(z,\partial)$. The analysis of this relationship depe
In this presentation, I will discuss how the role of instruments in musical practice can be under- stood, through a theoretical framework drawing upon the emerging paradigm of 4E cognition. Ani- mating the discussion are two studies, an interview study and a co-operative inquiry, together forming the empirical basis of my PhD-project. The case here is the simple-system flute, an in- strument that
Systematics is described for annotation of variations in RNA molecules. The conceptual framework is part of Variation Ontology (VariO) and facilitates depiction of types of variations, their functional and structural effects and other consequences in any RNA molecule in any organism. There are more than 150 RNA related VariO terms in seven levels, which can be further combined to generate even mor
A novel technique for CO2 removal using a precipitating amine absorption system is being studied for potential use in biogas upgrading and carbon capture and storage (CCS). The system uses the sterically hindered amine 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) mixed in different concentrations with the organic solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). In the current work, the physical solubility of CO2 in sol
The aggregation of simulated gridded crop yields to national or regional scale requires information on temporal and spatial patterns of crop-specific harvested areas. This analysis estimates the uncertainty of simulated gridded yield time series related to the aggregation with four different harvested area data sets. We compare aggregated yield time series from the Global Gridded Crop Model Interc
For the class of Hardy spaces and standard weighted Bergman spaces of the unit disk, we prove that the spectrum of a generalized Cesàro operator Tg is unchanged if the symbol g is perturbed to g+h by an analytic function h inducing a quasi-nilpotent operator Th, that is, spectrum of Th equals {0}. We also show that any Tg operator that can be approximated in the operator norm by an operator Th w
We measured the Coulomb dissociation of 16O into 4He and 12C at the R3B setup in a first campaign within FAIR Phase 0 at GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung, Darmstadt. The goal was to improve the accuracy of the experimental data for the 12C(a,?)16O fusion reaction and to reach lower center-ofmass energies than measured so far. The experiment required beam intensities of 109 16O ions pe
