Am Anfang und am Ende des Schuljahres 2000/2001 wurden die Werteprioritäten der Schüler/innen und Lehrer/innen an acht verschiedenen Schulen gemessen. Mit dieser Studie wurde das theoretische Modell einer universellen Struktur menschlicher Werteprioritäten (Schwartz, 1992) erneut bestätigt. Zu beiden Messzeitpunkten ergaben sich gleiche Geschlechtseffekte wie auch ähnlich hohe positive Zusammenhänge zwischen Religiosität und Schulbindung. Die Schüler/innen der nicht-religiösen Schulen gaben Hedonism als höchsten, und Tradition als niedrigsten Wert an. In den religiösen Schulen waren Benevolence und Self-Direction die meist geschätzten Werte, während Power die niedrigste Priorität besaß. Die Veränderung der Werte Conformity, Hedonism und Universalism ließ sich sowohl durch die Religiosität der Schüler/innen wie auch durch deren Schulzugehörigkeit vorhersagen. Die Veränderung von Power, Tradition, Benevolence und Achievement hingegen wurde primär durch Religiosität vorhergesagt. In drei der vier Schulen korrelierte die Ähnlichkeit der Schüler und Lehrer positiv mit der Schulbindung der Schüler/innen. Die Schüler-Lehrer Ähnlichkeit korrelierte über alle Schulen positiv mit Schulleistung. / The value priorities of students and teachers were measured at eight different schools at the beginning and the end of the school year 2000/2001. This study once again confirmed the theoretical model of a universal structure of human values (Schwartz, 1992). At both measurement times, similar gender differences, as well as positive correlations between religiosity and school commitment were found. The students from the non-religious schools determined Hedonism as their highest, and Tradition as their lowest value priority. In the religious schools, Benevolence and Self-Direction were the highest values, whereas Power was found to be the lowest value priority. The change of the values Conformity, Hedonism, and Universalism was predicted both through the students′ religiosity and their type of school. The change of the values Power, Tradition, Benevolence, and Achievement, however, was mainly predicted through their religiosity. In three out of four schools the student-teacher similarity correlated positively with the school commitment of the students. Across all schools student-teacher similarity correlated positively with academic achievement.

Multithreaded processors are now common in the industry as they offer high performance at a low cost. Traditionally, in such processors, the assignation of hardware resources between the multiple threads is done implicitly, by the hardware policies. However, a new class of multithreaded hardware allows the explicit allocation of resources to be controlled or biased by the software. Currently, there is little or no coordination between the allocation of resources done by the hardware and the prioritization of tasks done by the software.This thesis targets to narrow the gap between the software and the hardware, with respect to the hardware resource allocation, by proposing a new explicit resource allocation hardware mechanism and novel schedulers that use the currently available hardware resource allocation mechanisms.It approaches the problem in two different types of computing systems: on the high performance computing domain, we characterize the first processor to present a mechanism that allows the software to bias the allocation hardware resources, the IBM POWER5. In addition, we propose the use of hardware resource allocation as a way to balance high performance computing applications. Finally, we propose two new scheduling mechanisms that are able to transparently and successfully balance applications in real systems using the hardware resource allocation. On the soft real-time domain, we propose a hardware extension to the existing explicit resource allocation hardware and, in addition, two software schedulers that use the explicit allocation hardware to improve the schedulability of tasks in a soft real-time system.In this thesis, we demonstrate that system performance improves by making the software aware of the mechanisms to control the amount of resources given to each running thread. In particular, for the high performance computing domain, we show that it is possible to decrease the execution time of MPI applications biasing the hardware resource assignation between threads. In addition, we show that it is possible to decrease the number of missed deadlines when scheduling tasks in a soft real-time SMT system.

ES regioninės politikos tikslas - sumažinti įvairių ES valstybių regionų ekonominio ir socialinio išsivystymo skirtumus ir skatinti tolygią ES plėtrą. Ši politika yra pagrindinė ekonominės plėtros ir aukšto gyvenimo lygio užtikrinimo priemonė. Lietuvai tapus Europos Sąjungos nare, ji gavo teisę naudotis ES struktūrinių fondų, per kuriuos vykdoma regioninė politika, finansine parama. Didžiausią nerimą Lietuvoje kelia skirtumų tarp regionų didėjimas ir svarbiausiųjų centrų, ypač sostinės, atotrūkis nuo šalies vidurkio. Kadangi pagal ES regionų klasifikaciją Lietuva laikoma vienu NUTS II regionu, svarbiausias dėmesys darbe skiriamas Lietuvos regioninei politikai, jos teisinei bazei, įgyvendinimo administravimui, regioninės dimensijos įsisavinimui ir iš to kylančioms problemoms analizuoti ir apibendrinti. Darbo tikslas – išanalizuoti Europos Sąjungos vykdomą regioninę politiką ir atskleisti regioninį aspektą 2004 – 2006 m. ir 2007 – 2013m. ES struktūrinės paramos programavimo dokumentuose. Darbe analizuojama jau baigiama įsisavinti 2004 – 2006 m.ES struktūrinių fondų paramos regioninė dimensija, įgyvendinama šalies savivaldybėse. Daromi apibendrinimai ir palyginimai su 2007 – 2013 m. ES struktūrinės paramos programavimo dokumentais, prioritetais, priemonėmis ir jų įgyvendinimo regioniniu aspektu. / The aim of the regional policy is to lessen the difference of EU countries in economic and social development and to promote equal EU development. This policy is the main measure vouching for economic development and high living standards. Since joining EU , Lihuania has got the right to use EU structural funds, which execute both regional policy and financial support. The greatest anxiety is caused by the growth of difference between regions and the most important centres, as the capital and regions. According to EU regional classification, Lithuania is considered as NUTS II region, so the greatest impact of the work is based on Lithuania’s regional policy, its law system, administrative work, implementation of regional dimension, analyses and justifications of the problems. The aim of the work is to analyze the implementation of EU regional policy and to reveal the regional aspect in the EU structural support’s programming documents of 2004 – 2006 and 2007 – 2013. The work analyses the final stage of regional dimension’s implementation of EU structural funds 2004 – 2006 in the country’s municipalities. It summarizes and makes comparisons with the structural support programming documents of 2007 – 2013, priorities, measures and their implementation in regional aspect.

The aim of this masters thesis, based on discourse analysis and organization theory, is to study how individuals in different Swedish cultural organizations- and agencys are working with disaster preparedness. The purpose of this is to examine whether organizational structures affect different persons work, cooperation and practical application concerning disaster preparedness in collaboration with both external and internal organizations. The research shows that disaster preparedness are affected by priority issues as well as financial resources causing consequences for future work concerning this kind of issues. Another problem which is also examined and discussed in this thesis are the problematic approach to personal initiative which today is the leading operation for the organizations to deal with disaster preparedness instead of creating professional titles for the persons handles these complex issues.

Its content is made up of competitive priorities and decision categories (or areas) that should develop such priorities. Among these categories, there is the organizational structure that should have characteristics that foster the priorities adopted by the organization. In this context, the present work seeks to identify which is the competitive priority of the companies in the auto parts sector of the city of Sorocaba and how the organizational structure can favor its development. Through a qualitative study, using the methodology of study of multicases, the organizational structures that favor the development of one or more competitive priorities were identified and compared. In the four companies studied it was observed that the competitive priority is quality. In these companies, the characteristics of the organizational structure that favor this competitive priority are the high degree of formalization of the activities, the decentralization of the decisions, training, the awareness of the leaders on the importance of quality, and the incentive to the formal and informal communication in the group work and meetings. / A estratégia de produção tem sido considerada importante para a obtenção de vantagens frente aos concorrentes. Seu conteúdo é formado pelas prioridades competitivas e pelas categorias (ou áreas) de decisão que devem desenvolver tais prioridades. Entre essas categorias, tem-se a estrutura organizacional, assim, ela deve possuir características que fomente as prioridades adotadas pela organização. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho procura identificar qual é a prioridade competitiva das empresas do setor de autopeças da cidade de Sorocaba e como a estrutura organizacional pode favorecer seu desenvolvimento. Por meio de um estudo de natureza qualitativa, com o uso do método estudo multicasos, foram identificados e comparados os aspectos das estruturas organizacionais que favorecem o desenvolvimento de uma ou mais prioridades competitivas. Observou-se que nas quatro empresas estudadas, a principal prioridade competitiva é a qualidade. Nestas empresas, as características da estrutura organizacional que favorecem essa prioridade competitiva são o alto grau de formalização das atividades, a descentralização das decisões, o treinamento, a conscientização dos líderes sobre a importância da qualidade e o incentivo à comunicação formal e informal através do trabalho em grupo e reuniões.
