    Strategies and policies of Linköping University Electronic Press

    No full text
      Linköping University has recently created a separate entity, called Linköping University Electronic Press, for the unrefereed electronic publication of research articles and other university-related materials over the Internet. The present article presents the background for why the E-Press was created and the strategies which have been chosen for its operation at least during its initial period. The article identifies three key problems in the context of this strategy: The purely formal problems concerning what counts as a publication; The persistence problem of making sure that an electronically published article does not change over time; The reception problems concerning how fellow researchers and the academic community regard electronically published articles. We describe how the formal problems and the persistence problems have been addressed in the E-Press initiative. With respect to the reception problems, we argue that scientific journals and journal-like conferences presently perform four distinct functions, and that these functions can be performed better if they are "unbundled" and addressed by other means. The four functions are: Publication in the narrow sense - making the article publicly available; Scientific quality control through reviewing; Selection of relevant articles for the benefit of the researcher-reader; Promotion of the scientific results of the author. The Electronic Press focusses on the first one of these four functions. We discuss how the other three functions can be separated and performed by other means than through a conventional journal or quality conference proceedings

    Proceedings of the 56th Conference on Simulation and Modelling (SIMS 56) : October, 7-9, 2015, Linköping University, Sweden

    Welcome The 56th Conference on Simulation and Modelling will be held in Linköping, Sweden. Linköping is one of Sweden’s fastest growing cities. The population is constantly increasing and will soon surpass 150 000 inhabitants. It is currently Sweden’s fifth largest city and a part of the expansive region Twin Cities of Sweden. Linköping has long been characterized by world-class high technology in the fields of aviation, IT and the environment. There is a strong force of innovation especially in Mjärdevi Science Park—one of Europe’s leading technology parks, and at the highly ranked university, which stands for excellence and entrepreneurship. SIMS is the Scandinavian Simulation Society with members from the five Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Iceland. The SIMS history goes back to 1959. The goal of SIMS is to further the science and practice of modeling and simulation in all application areas and be a Scandinavian forum for information interchange among modeling and simulation professionals and non-professionals in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden as well as a channel for information exchange between the Scandinavian modeling and simulation community and the international modeling and simulation communities. The ambition of the SIMS is to bring the field of modeling and simulation technology to a variety of application fields from energy extraction to building and automotive industries, resulting in more sustainable and ecological systems and reducing energy consumption and waste production. The scientific program includes technical sessions with submitted and invited papers and will cover broad aspects of simulation, modeling and optimization. The focus of the conference is split evenly between papers on simulation and optimization in a variety of applied contexts spanning domains such as oil extraction, automotive and building industries and more methodological papers on tools and technologies for simulation and modeling. This year we wanted to emphasize the importance of reducing the gap between state of the art methodologies and tools and industrial applications. To this end a number of invited talks, papers and tutorials were centered on tools and methodologies for successful modeling in an industrial context. The format of the conference is somewhat changed compared to previous years. This year we have dedicated a half-day before the traditional two-day conference to tutorials, with 3 tutorials presenting stateof- the-art simulation tools. Conference highlights: 4 Keynote speeches 40 papers in 2 parallel tracks 3 tutorials Electronic proceedings including all papers and some associated Modelica libraries and models Finally, we want to acknowledge the support we received from the conference board and program committee as well as from the SIMS board. Special thanks to our colleagues at this year’s organizers at Linköping University, especially to Åsa Kärrman, and Tina Malmström from Grand Travel Group. The support from the conference sponsors is gratefully acknowledged. Last but not least, thanks to all authors, keynote speakers, and presenters for their contributions to this conference. We wish all participants an enjoyable and inspiring conference. Linköping, September 1, 2015 Lena Buffoni, Adrian Pop and Bernhard Thiel

    Proceedings of 15:th Scandinavian International Conference on Fluid Power, June 7-9, 2017, Linköping, Sweden

    SICFP2017 This is the proceedings of the 15th Scandinavian International Conference on Fluid Power held at Linköping University in Sweden on 7-9 June 2017. The theme of the conference was “Fluid Power in the Digital Age”. The contributions are well aligned with this theme, and are indeed reflecting the great developments. We are very grateful to the effort put in by the authors to produce such high quality papers, and also to those taking time to review papers to further enhance the quality. The contributions clearly shows that the fluid power industry, and academia, have both challenges as well as opportunities in keeping up with the evolving capabilities provided by the digitalization. It was with great joy to see old and new colleagues and friends attending our conference and the division of Fluid and mechatronic systems, at Linköping University. The conference is a bi-annual event, with alternating localization between Linköping in Sweden and Tampere in Finland. The process of hosting such an event is a great effort for our organization and I would like to thank all those involved in organizing this conference, and wish good luck with the next one to our Finnish colleagues. Thank you! Prof. Petter Krus Head of Division Fluid and Mechatronic Systems Review Process Each author attending the conference days had the opportunity to select from three different ways of presenting their contribution. Firstly, a reviewed process with at least two international reviewers of each contribution. The process resulted in most cases with feedback from the reviewers with comments spanning everything between diagram legends to scientific methods. Some proposed papers where rejected upon recommendations from reviewers. Secondly contributions where also presented in industry sessions where the review process where internal only by the staff of the division. A third extended abstract presentation format where also presented during the conference. This proceedings contain all presented contributions from the reviewed papers in the first section and thereafter the non-reviewed papers in second section. All reviewed papers are marked in the footer by the acceptance date

    Historia i Linköping

    Forskningsinriktningen vid den historiska avdelningen vid Linköpings universitet har sedan länge en stark socialhistorisk profil. kollektivens vardag studeras på en rad områden, på olika nivåer och över sinsemellan skilda tidsperioder. Det gäller inom såväl agrara som industriella miljöer, på samhällelig liksom på grupp-, familje- och individnivå samt över tid som omspänner senantiken till det sena 1900-talets historia. Hur identiteter skapas, tillägnas och förändras är en alltmer växande inriktning, liksom anknytningen till socialpolitiska ideer, normsystem, attityder, värderingar och mentaliteter. Även den  rättshistoriska och ekonomiskhistoriska forskningen ryms inom detta fält. Den historiska demografin utgör också traditionellt en stark del av det socialhistoriska fältet. Studier av arbeta och ohälsa, sjuklighet, dödlighet och hälsopolitik ligger långt framme. Bredden i den socialhistoriska profilen morsvaras av en mångfald melodologiska inslag. Skriftserien Socialhistoria i Linköping uppmärksammar denna profil och vilka uttryck den tar sig i grundutbildningen. I serien publiceras i första hand uppsatser skrivna på C- och D- nivå, men även bidrag från lärare och doktorander vid avdelningen förekommer. Detta nummer av Socialhistoria i Linköping är en specialutgåva till Svenska historikermötet i Linköping 23-25 april 199

    Om kommunikation, 3 : Selected papers from a seminar arranged by the Department of Communication Studies on 24-25 May, 1984

    The guiding concept for the seminar was that of 'understanding'. The contributors to this report discuss various aspects of the understanding of hidden meanings and implicit messages, the acquisition of tacit knowledge in specific contexts as well as the role played in understanding by background knowledge and fundamental assumptions. One of the papers deals specifically with pictorial communication. Three papers are related to the acquisition, learning and teaching of seeond or foreign languages.Contributors:Nils Dahlbäck.

    In earlier conferences of NaMu: Making National In earlier conferences of NaMu: Making National Museums, we have explored the complexity of defining National Museums laboured with contemporary narrative analyses and dealt specifically with how diversity and difference are negotiated in an increasingly globalized world. Seewww.namu.se andwww.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=022. The fourth conference in the series held at Linköping University 18-20 February 2008 took an explicit historical and comparative outlook dealing with some of the main questions of the NaMu program, stressing methodological issues and comparative strategies. Eight thematic sessions were introduced by seminal key-notes giving European, global and methodological feeds to the dialogue over disciplinary and national borders: Comparing relationships between different forms of national museums and their related academic disciplines. To what extent were and are they part of institutions of knowledge? Do they present a coherent approach to memory politics? To what extent are there autonomous logics operating in the evolution of cultural, historical, technical, natural and art national museums? Comparing the narratives told in and by museums: how do they evolve over time? What “us” and what “others” were constructed with what means? Do they differ between countries structurally? Comparing the role of national museums in the overall history of their setting (relating to disciplinary, esthetical, political and economical developments. Are they forming nations, creating hegemony, arguing for change, disrupting order or integrate? Some answers and the basis for more intelligent questions are to be found in this volume

    Proceedings of the 2nd CIRP IPS2 Conference 2010, Linköping, 14-15 April

    Manufacturers in developed countries today regard services as increasingly important. Some manufacturing firms are strategically shifting from a “product seller” towards a “service provider”. As a result, their offerings have come to form a combination of physical products and services. Along with this trend, concepts such as Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPS²) are found in not only theoretical but also practical fields in industries. An IPS² is defined as “an integrated industrial product and service offering that delivers value in use”. This integrated offering and its way of development provides opportunities for companies and their customers to design more innovative solutions. IPS² has potential for better environmental performance, as well. On the other hand, this has a great impact on such companies. Delivering IPS² is not an easy task, and may force companies to change organizational structures and their mindsets. The CIRP IPS² Conference is organized by the CIRP IPS² Working Group. This 2nd CIRP IPS² Conference has 69 technical papers in the proceedings from 14 countries. This shows the interests of the topic within CIRP and the outside research community at large. The conference has 12 technical sessions, 2 keynote speeches and 2 industry study visits. Over 100 participants are expected to attend the conference. This IPS² conference will focus on research and practice into marketing, design, development, manufacturing, delivery, use, maintenance, and end-of-life of IPS². The topics to be addressed include manufacturing methods, development methods, service quality, information communication technologies, service networks, business models, and environmental performance. Reflecting the high degree of participants’ sharing backgrounds and disciplines, we will make a challenge on the way of organizing sessions in this conference. Unlike the tradition of CIRP conferences, presentations will be short with 10 minutes while long discussion across different presentations will be facilitated by session chairpersons with some 30 minutes after all the presentations in each session. We understand this has pros and cons, but in this particular case we believe this is, at least, a good attempt and hope this to produce more fruitful results. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the authors for their high-quality research papers, skilled session chairpersons, companies offering industry visits, the international scientific committee members for their support in reviewing the papers and the local organising committee for their efforts in preparing this conference. We would also like to thank our sponsors; VINNOVA (The Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems), our gold sponsor Linköping municipality and our silver sponsors Servicestaden AB, Polyplank AB, SIG PM, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Department of Management and Engineering at Linköping University and The Faste Laboratory at Luleå University of Technology for their support for the conference.
