Denne rapporten presenterer resultatene fra et kvalitativt forskningsprosjekt om rådgiverrollen. Prosjektet ble gjennomført på oppdrag fra Utdanningsforbundet, av forskere ved SINTEF, NTNU og IRIS. Prosjektet ble gjennomført i 2014, og i tråd med oppdragsgivers ønske konsentrerer rapporten seg om...
A major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions is the production of concrete and steel for the construction industry. This report presents a comparison of the life cycle GHG impact of a concrete and steel load-bearing structure with a wood load-bearing alternative. The basis for the...
Utilizing time effectively and efficiently is one of the important factors that can determine the success of achieving desired results of projects. Nevertheless, several projects come across delays and unnecessary use of time due to various reasons, and hence suffer from unfavorable consequences...
... Introduction In order to offer attractive public transport services, transport operators depend on a clear understanding of travel behavior. Norwegian public transport operators, however, have less access to such data than operators in comparable countries. The research project Smooth Mobility...
Many different open information sources currently exist for protecting the environment in Europe, mainly focused on Natura 2000 network, and areas where environmental protection and activities like tourism need to be balanced. Managing these data and integrating them for supporting decision makers...
Service-oriented computing has brought special attention to service description, especially in connection with semantic technologies. The expected proliferation of publicly accessible services can benefit greatly from tool support and automation, both of which are the focus of Semantic Web Service...
This chapter starts with a brief description of existing fuel cell technology, centralized and distributed hydrogen production, and an introduction to Pd-based membrane technology. It presents an in-depth discussion on some of the main issues related to hydrogen production from various primary fuels...
Transferrin (Tf) conjugated to gold nanoparticles and clusters combine the protein's site-specific receptor targeting capabilities with the optical properties imparted by the nano-sized gold. We have described two different synthesis protocols, one yielding fluorescent Tf-stabilized gold...
