In metallurgic plants a high quality metal production is always required. Nowadays soft computing applications are more often used for automation of manufacturing process and quality control instead of mechanical techniques. In this thesis an overview of soft computing methods presents. As an example of soft computing application, an effective model of fuzzy expert system for the automotive quality control of steel degassing process was developed. The purpose of this work is to describe the fuzzy relations as quality hypersurfaces by varying number of linguistic variables and fuzzy sets.

Tässä tutkielmassa on tarkasteltu case- yrityksen henkilöstön näkemyksiä henkilöstön kehittämisestä sekä case- yrityksen kehittämisestä. Tutkielman tavoitteena on ollut selvittää kuinka Oy Gust. Raninin henkilöstöä voitaisiin kehittää, jotta yritys kykenisi kehittämään toimintojaan, lisäämään työntekijöiden viihtyvyyttä ja ammattitaitoa sekä vastaamaan kilpailuun. Tutkimus on laadullinen case- tutkimus. Tutkimusmenetelmänä on käytetty teemahaastatteluja, joita tehtiin case- yrityksen eri henkilöstöryhmien edustajille. Tutkimus tehtiin Oy Gust. Raninille. Henkilöstön mielestä parhaita tapoja kehittää osaamista ovat erilaiset yrityksen ulkopuolisen ammattilaisen pitämät läheisesti työtehtäviin liittyvät kurssit joilta saa mukaan kurssimateriaalia. Työntekijät haluavat itse valita ne kurssit joihin he osallistuvat. Toinen suosittu kehittämistapa on työn- tai tehtävien kierto. Suurimmaksi ongelmakohdaksi koettiin puutteellinen tiedonkulku sekä esimiehiltä alaisille että työntekijöiden välillä. Muita kehittämiskohteita ovat atk- taidot sekä kielitaito. Henkilöstön suhtautuminen kaikenlaisiin kehittämistoimiin on positiivista ja henkilöstö on halukas kehittämään työtehtäviään.

On the variation in literary languages The article discusses the formation and development of several literary languages. The main objects of the study are the Finno-Ugric languages spoken in the Volga-Kama region (Russia), and Chuvash, but, for comparison, Norwegian, Arabic, Russian, Finnish and some other Finno-Ugric languages are treated, as well. A general classification of cases where linguistic variation tends to occur in standard languages is put forward. The author also discusses the question whether some kind of universal “normal” amount of variation can be defined for literary languages. The conclusion is that the degree of variation allowed in a literary norm is highly language-specific and depends on the characteristics of the linguistic situation and the history of the literary standard.

Sanomalehdissä käyty keskustelu “innovaatioyliopistosta” eli Helsinkiin sijoittuvasta Teknillisen korkeakoulun, Helsingin kauppakorkeakoulun ja Taideteollisen korkeakoulun fuusiohankkeesta on ollut vilkasta. Työnimestä huolimatta sisällöllinen keskustelu innovatiivisuudesta on ollut vähäistä. Tämän työn tutkimusmetodi on diskurssianalyysi. Sen keinoin pureudutaan innovatiivisuuden merkityksentymiseen yliopistofuusion kontekstissa. Laajasta kuuden sanomalehden artikkeliaineistosta vuosina 2005-2008 on valittu innovaatiodiskurssia edustava pääaineisto, jota on tulkittu sosiaalisesta ja kielellisestä näkökulmasta käsin. Innovatiivisuus yliopistokontekstissa merkityksentyi pääasiassa innovaatiojärjestelmien kautta. Perustutkimuksen tärkeä rooli innovaatioketjussa esittäytyi näkyvästi.

The purpose of this comparative study is to profile second language learners by exploring the factors which have an impact on their learning. The subjects come from two different countries: one group comes from Milwaukee, US, and the other from Turku, Finland. The subjects have attended bilingual classes from elementary school to senior high school in their respective countries. In the United States, the subjects (N = 57) started in one elementary school from where they moved on to two high schools in the district. The Finnish subjects (N = 39) attended the same school from elementary to high school. The longitudinal study was conducted during 1994-2004 and combines both qualitative and quantitative research methods. A Pilot Study carried out in 1990-1991 preceded the two subsequent studies that form the core material of this research. The theoretical part of the study focuses first on language policies in the United States and Finland: special emphasis is given to the history, development and current state of bilingual education, and the factors that have affected policy-making in the provision of language instruction. Current language learning theories and models form the theoretical foundation of the research, and underpin the empirical studies. Cognitively-labeled theories are at the forefront, but sociocultural theory and the ecological approach are also accounted for. The research methods consist of questionnaires, compositions and interviews. A combination of statistical methods as well as content analysis were used in the analysis. The attitude of the bilingual learners toward L1 and L2 was generally positive: the subjects enjoyed learning through two languages and were motivated to learn both. The knowledge of L1 and parental support, along with early literacy in L1, facilitated the learning of L2. This was particularly evident in the American subject group. The American subjects’ L2 learning was affected by the attitudes of the learners to the L1 culture and its speakers. Furthermore, the negative attitudes taken by L1 speakers toward L2 speakers and the lack of opportunities to engage in activities in the L1 culture affected the American subjects’ learning of L2, English. The research showed that many American L2 learners were isolated from the L1 culture and were even afraid to use English in everyday communication situations. In light of the research results, a politically neutral linguistic environment, which the Finnish subjects inhabited, was seen to be more favorable for learning. The Finnish subjects were learning L2, English, in a neutral zone where their own attitudes and motivation dictated their learning. The role of L2 as a means of international communication in Finland, as opposed to a means of exercising linguistic power, provided a neutral atmosphere for learning English. In both the American and Finnish groups, the learning of other languages was facilitated when the learner had a good foundation in their L1, and the learning of L1 and L2 were in balance. Learning was also fostered when the learners drew positive experiences from their surroundings and were provided with opportunities to engage in activities where L2 was used.

Given the structural and acoustical similarities between speech and music, and possible overlapping cerebral structures in speech and music processing, a possible relationship between musical aptitude and linguistic abilities, especially in terms of second language pronunciation skills, was investigated. Moreover, the laterality effect of the mother tongue was examined with both adults and children by means of dichotic listening scores. Finally, two event-related potential studies sought to reveal whether children with advanced second language pronunciation skills and higher general musical aptitude differed from children with less-advanced pronunciation skills and less musical aptitude in accuracy when preattentively processing mistuned triads and music / speech sound durations. The results showed a significant relationship between musical aptitude, English language pronunciation skills, chord discrimination ability, and sound-change-evoked brain activation in response to musical stimuli (durational differences and triad contrasts). Regular music practice may also have a modulatory effect on the brain’s linguistic organization and cause altered hemispheric functioning in those who have regularly practised music for years. Based on the present results, it is proposed that language skills, both in production and discrimination, are interconnected with perceptual musical skills.
