  1. 16. The complexity of circular business models and the effect of firm size in the clothing industry - A variable development and quantitative study for the clothing industry

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Författare :Christoffer Lindström; Carl Berggren; [2020-07-01]
    Nyckelord :Circular business models; circular economy; sustainable business models; closing the loop strategies;

    Sammanfattning : With the newly added focus on the social and environmental costs associated with the fast fashion and clothing industry, many researchers have attempted to solve the problem and come up with valid theories for change. A way to minimize externalities is with the implementation of circular business models, which have become increasingly relevant to prolong the life cycle of products, reduce the use of natural resources and minimize harmful emissions and can, therefore, be a possible solution to the problem.

  2. 17. Making sense of the need for control: The process of formalizing management control systems while transitioning from birth to growth in the organizational life-cycle

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för redovisning och finansiering

    Författare :Max Odqvist; Erik Dege; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Organizational life-cycle; Management control systems; Triggering event; Problem solving consistency; Sensemaking;

    Sammanfattning : In this paper, we examine the process of formalizing management control systems (MCSs) while transitioning between birth and growth in the organizational life-cycle. We draw upon empirical data from a US-based growth firm and use process theory to extract micro-level details by examining how activities, events and choices impact the formalization process.

  3. 18. The predictive content of one-time accounting items

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

    Författare :Sebastian Roth; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Special items; One-time items; Firm life cycle; Earnings persistence; Profit margins;

    Sammanfattning : My paper suggests that investors can leverage corporate life cycle theory to enhance their understanding of one-time items, helping them to decide whether those items shall be considered or neglected. One-time revenues are only associated with future performance for longer earnings windows in mature firms. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Gate Recurrent Unit Neural Networks for Hearing Instruments

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Författare :Harshit Sharma; Pallavi Rajanna; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Keyword Spotting; GRU; Gated; Recurrent; Unint; RNN; Hearing Instruments; Hearing; Instruments.; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) neural networks have gained popularity for applications such as keyword spotting, speech recognition and other artificial intelligence applications. Typically for most applications training and inference is performed on cloud servers, and the result are transferred to the power constrained device, e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 20. LCC and LCA for Low Temperature Heating Integrated with Energy Active Envelope Systems

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energiteknik
