Bakalaureusetöös on antud ülevaade varudest, varude juhtimise vajadustest ja
võimalikkusest. Töös on kirjeldatud erinevaid varude juhtimise meetodeid ja nende
meetodite koostöötamise sünergiat. Samuti on iseloomustatud varude täiendamise võimalusi
ning optimaalse tellimiskoguse leidmist.
Töö sisaldab Valio Eesti AS-i tutvustavat ülevaadet tema tegevusalast, paiknemisest,
tooteportfellist, koostööpartneritest ja konkurentidest. Järgnevalt on kirjeldatud ettevõtte
varusid, analüüsitud varude struktuuri ja sellega seotud muutusi. Põhjalik ülevaade on antud
Valio Eesti AS-i moosi- ja pakkematerjalide varudest. Moosi- ja pakkematerjalide varudega
on teostatud analüüse erinevate meetoditega, et leida varude praktilisemaid haldamise
võimalusi. Moosi- ja pakkematerjalide varude tooteartiklitega on teostatud ABC analüüs,

Rehun tärkkelyspitoisuuden määrittäminen polarimetrisellä menetelmällä
No full textTässä opinnäytetyössä tavoitteena oli selvittää Ewersin polarimetrisen menetelmän soveltuvuus Valio Oy Seinäjoen aluelaboratorion käyttöön. Työ suoritettiin Valion aluelaboratoriossa.
Opinnäytetyössä tutkittiin aluelaboratoriolle saapuvien rehunäytteiden tärkkelyspitoisuuksia, testattiin suolahapon määrän vaikutusta mittaustuloksiin taloudellisesta näkökulmasta sekä haluttiin tietää, voiko Carrez I ja II -reagenssit korvata natriummolybdaattireagenssilla menetelmän suorituksen nopeuttamiseksi. Työssä perehdyttiin myös lehmän ruokintaan eläimen ruoansulatuksen kautta, tarkasteltiin tärkkelystä ja sen ominaisuuksia sekä perehdyttiin polarimetrin perusteisiin ja toimintaan.
Polarimetriseen tärkkelysmääritykseen löytyy useita eri vaihtoehtoja. Työssä keskitytään yleisimpään Ewersin polarimetriseen menetelmään, jonka Valion aluelaboratorio valitsi opinnäytetyön pohjaksi.
Näytteiden käsittely sujui helposti ja tarkasti sekä liuoksien ajo polarimetrillä oli nopeaa. Tulokset vastasivat referenssinäytteiden tuloksia vaikka käytössä oli eri suolahappopitoisuus tai reagenssi. Mittaustulokset olivat tasalaatuisia, mutta niihin kaivattaisiin lisää tarkkuutta
Achieving Quality in Crisis Communication Management. Case: Valio Ltd.
No full textThe purpose of this study is to describe the basic elements of crises and analyse process of crisis communication. The study aims to evaluate organisations preparedness in crisis situations. The aim of this study is to show what procedures are relevant in crisis management. In this way, organisations can be more prepared for crises, and can be better equipped to prevent them.
The research methods I have chosen consist of interviews and written documents. I interviewed 13 people in relation to the procedures in four specific crises. Parts of the written documents are public, however some are confidential and available to only a very select group of people. Without these documents it would have been impossible to find out all facts. It is justifiable to use these documents because of the important information contained in them. The written documents also complement information what is received in interviews.
The theoretical part of the study is based upon a literature review, the purpose of which is to make the empirical part of the study more understandable. The case company is Valio Ltd. The theoretical framework was made based on the knowledge gained from literature review. In empirical part of the study, the process of crisis communication was analysed in 4 concrete crises and the similarities between these processes have also been identified.
The process of crisis communication in Valio and a written plan have a lot in common with the theories of researchers. Therefore I did not find any major differences between the theory of crisis management and the reality in Valio. On the basis of this study it can be verified that Valio has taken crisis management very seriously and the organisation has used a lot of resources in order to create a plan of crisis communication. Furthermore skills in a crisis are tested with real exercises with the help of authorities.
Even though Valio is well prepared for the crisis situations, results of the study show that internal communication has been occasionally insufficient and only few people have the knowledge of how to communicate in a crisis. Moreover, the resources are not directed to post-crisis-communication aimed at protecting the public image and at strengthening the brand. This point concerns external communication. On the other hand internal communication has been managed locally well, but within the whole organisation post-crisis-communication has often been forgotten.fi=Kokotekstiversiota ei ole saatavissa.|en=Fulltext not available.|sv=Fulltext ej tillgänglig
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

No full textEl universo de Maurice Sendak: una nueva manera de representar la infancia
No full textEl concepto de literatura infantil se ha ido definiendo a lo largo del tiempo a través de propuestas de autores que han marcado una forma de entender el discurso literario dirigido a la infancia. Maurice Sendak es, sin duda, uno de esos autores, de tal modo que se le atribuye una suerte de «reinvención» de la literatura infantil. Tras establecer las bases sobre las que se asienta esta afirmación, se analizan desde esta perspectiva varias obras del autor, insistiendo particularmente en la metáfora como estrategia discursiva. La presencia de metáforas relacionadas con el ámbito de la comida constituye un elemento recurrente en la obra de Sendak, a manera de «intertexto restringido», en un sentido muy amplio.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Abstract: The concept of Children’s Literature has been defined over time through proposals from authors who have made a way of understanding the literary discourse to children. Certainly, Maurice Sendak is one of those authors so he is attributed to a sort of «reinvention» of Children´s Literature. After establishing the basis on which this statement is based, we analyze –from this perspective– various works by the author, with particular emphasis on the metaphor as a discursive strategy. Thus the presence of related metaphors in the fields of food constitutes a recurring element in the work of Sendak, seen in a way as a «restricted intertextuality» in a very wide sense

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

Author in Essay by I. A. Goncharov “Pepiniere”
No full textFeatures of the embodiment of the author’s position in the essay by I. A. Goncharov “Pepiniere” are considered. The relevance of the study is due to the poorly studied poetics of this work. A review of the scientific literature on relevant topics is performed. Methodological and theoretical definitions are given. The scientific novelty of the article is in the fact that for the first time attention is paid to artistic techniques that allow to identify the author's position in the specified literary text. The author of the article grounds her opinion from the fact that, despite the dominance of the subjective point of view, other characters’ views stand out in the work. It is concluded in the study that the text of the work represents a biographical author and author-creator. It was established that the position of the author-creator is expressed through the title, epigraphs, which are quotes, as well as through different points of view, including the author-character, the author-narrator, the characters of the work. The author of the article dwells in detail on different ways of expressing the points of view of the author-character and the author-narrator. It is proved that the point of view of the author-character and the author-narrator can intersect, they are interchanged. The author's development of the term comic “point of view” is presented in the article
