Customer specific functionalities are a challenging part of procurement and invoice automation environments. In Basware Enterprise Purchase to Payment product family the customer specific reports are supported only in a basic level without any seamless interface between all EPP products. Also other customer specific functionalities are not supported as there is no customizable interface between the applications and only the most common features are implemented to the products themselves. In this thesis foundations are created for a new web based value added module where it is possible to create seamless customer specific functionalities throughout the whole EPP product family. The work is implemented in a Proof of Concept type of piloting. The system is created in user centered way where the users are able to explain their requests and determine their needs. The result is an excellent foundation for a module that can be developed further.

App Engine on lyhenne englanninkielisistä termeistä application, sovellus ja engine, moottori. Kyseessä on Google, Inc. -konsernin toteuttama kaupallinen palvelu, joka noudattaa pilvimallin tietojenkäsittelyn periaatteita ja mahdollistaa asiakkaan oman sovelluskehityksen. Järjestelmään on mahdollista ohjelmoida itse ideoitu palvelu Internet - verkon välityksellä käytettäväksi, joko yksityisesti tai julkisesti. Kyse on siis hajautetusta palvelinjärjestelmästä, jonka tarjoaa dynaamisesti kuormitukseen sopeutuvan sovellusalustan, jossa asiakas ei vuokraa virtuaalikoneita. Myös järjestelmän tarjoama tallennuskapasiteetti on saatavilla joustavasti. Itse kandidaatintyössä syvennytään yksityiskohtaisemmin sovelluksen toteuttamiseen palvelussa, rajoitteisiin ja soveltuvuuteen. Alussa käydään läpi pilvikäsite, joista monilla tietokoneiden käyttäjillä on epäselvä käsitys. Erilaisia kokonaisuuksia voidaan luoda erittäin monella tavalla, joista rajaamme käsittelyn kohteeksi toteuttamiskelpoiset yleiset ratkaisut.

INTRODUCTION: Web-based e-learning is a teaching tool increasingly used in many medical schools and specialist fields, including ophthalmology. AIMS: this pilot study aimed to develop internet-based course-based clinical cases and to evaluate the effectiveness of this method within a graduate medical education group. METHODS: this was an interventional randomized study. First, a website was built using a distance learning platform. Sixteen first-year ophthalmology residents were then divided into two randomized groups: one experimental group, which was submitted to the intervention (use of the e-learning site) and another control group, which was not submitted to the intervention. The students answered a printed clinical case and their scores were compared. RESULTS: there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. CONCLUSION: We were able to successfully develop the e-learning site and the respective clinical cases. Despite the fact that there was no statistically significant difference between the access and the non access group, the study was a pioneer in our department, since a clinical case online program had never previously been developed.

Web-palvelussa sivuston suorituskyky muodostaa suuren osan käyttökokemuksen mielekkyydestä. Sivuston ollessa kuormitetumpi kuin normaalisti, saattaa se toimia tavallista hitaammin. Tasaamalla yhden web-palvelimen kuormaa muille palvelimille, joko laitteisto tai ohjelmistopohjaisella kuormantasauksella, voidaan saavuttaa merkittäviä suorituskykyparannuksia koko palvelulle. Teoriaosassa selvitettiin kuormantasaukseen soveltuvien algoritmien toimintaa sekä tietokantapohjaista replikaatiota, joka välittää saamansa tiedon lähes välittömästi toiselle palvelimelle. Apachen kuormantasausmoduuliin sekä sen sisältämiin algoritmeihin luotiin myös katsaus teoriaosassa. Varsinaisessa työssä luotiin Apachen kuormantasauspalvelimen ja kahden suorituspalvelimen avulla toimiva palvelinjärjestelmä. Kuormantasaimeen asennettiin käyttöön tahmeat sessiot, joiden toimintaa selvitettiin Drupal-ohjelman avulla. Apachessa on ollut ongelmia tahmeiden sessioiden kanssa, mutta työssä huomattiin kaiken toimivan mainiosti. Kuormantasaus ja tietokantojen replikaatio toimi, kuten odotettiin.

The electronic learning has become crucial in higher education with increased usage of learning management systems as a key source of integration on distance learning. The objective of this study is to understand how university teachers are influenced to use and adopt web-based learning management systems. Blackboard, as one of the systems used internationally by various universities is applied as a case. Semi-structured interviews were made with professors and lecturers who are using Blackboard at Lappeenranta University of Technology. The data collected were categorized under constructs adapted from Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and interpretation and discussion were based on reviewed literature. The findings suggest that adoption of learning management systems by LUT teachers is highly influenced by perceived usefulness, facilitating conditions and gained experience. The findings also suggest that easiness of using the system and social influence appear as medium influence of adoption for teachers at LUT.

Tämän kandidaatintyön aiheena on web-sovelluksen käyttäjäautomaatio web-makrojen avulla. Työssä esitellään prototyyppitoteutus SaaS-sovellukseen kohdistetusta web-makrojärjestelmästä. Työn teoriaosa esittelee web-automaation ja web-ympäristön keskeisen teknologian. Ratkaisuosa pohjustaa ratkaisuun käytetyn lähestymistavan, esittelee työn prototyyppiratkaisun ja arvioi ratkaisun lopputulosta. Lopputuloksena havaitaan, että prototyyppiratkaisu onnistuu selvittämään makrotoiminnallisuuden toteuttamiseen liittyvät tekniset haasteet. Ratkaisun merkittävimmäksi tekniseksi haasteeksi arvioidaan selainyhteensopivuuden saavutus ja ylläpito. Ratkaisun hyödynnettävyys koko web-sovelluksen mittakaavassa todetaan kuitenkin heikoksi, koska sovelluksen liiketoimintalogiikka rajoittaa makroparadigman käyttöä.

IT-järjestelmillä on tärkeä rooli organisaation liiketoiminnassa. Koska organisaation liiketoimintavaatimukset ja strategia muuttuvat ympäröivän maailman mukaan, täytyy järjestelmän arkkitehtuurin sopeutua vallitsevaan tilanteeseen sekä mahdollisiin muutoksiin lyhyellä ja pitkällä aikavälillä. Modernin web-sovelluksen arkkitehtuuri sopeutuu organisaation liiketoiminnan haasteisiin. Erityisesti hallinnolliseksi ongelmaksi organisaatiossa muodostuvat Windows-sovellukset, koska niiden ylläpito sitoo henkilöresursseja ja niiden käyttökonteksti on rajallinen. Tästä syystä organisaatiot ovat käyneet etsimään ratkaisuja kuinka korvata Windows-sovellukset web-sovelluksilla. Kustannustehokas ratkaisu on modernisoida Windows-sovelluksen käyttöliittymä web-sovellukseksi. Tämän diplomityön tavoitteena oli laatia Logica Suomi Oy yritykselle viitearkkitehtuuri Win-dows-sovelluksen käyttöliittymän modernisoimiseksi web-sovellukseksi. Työ suoritettiin Proof of Concept projektissa, jossa modernisointiin Logican pääkäyttäjäsovellus. Työn tarkoituksena oli tunnistaa laajalti käytetyt arkkitehtuurimallit ja menetelmät jotka mahdollistavat modernisoinnin toteutuksen. Lisäksi tarkoitus oli tunnistaa menetelmät ja ohjelmistot jotka mahdollistavat kustannustehokkaan ja laadukkaan web-sovelluksen kehittämisen ja toteuttamisen. Työn osatavoitteena oli laatia modernisoitavan pääkäyttäjäsovelluksen kokonaisarkkitehtuuri. Työn tuloksena saatiin viitearkkitehtuuri jota voidaan käyttää ja hyödyntää ohjelmistokehitysprojekteissa, asiakkaan dokumentaatiossa, myynnissä ja markkinoinnissa. Viitearkkitehtuurissa on esitelty modernit web-teknologiat joilla on mahdollista toteuttaa web-sovellus jonka käyttökokemus vastaa Windows-sovellusta. Lisäksi tuloksena saatiin pääkäyttäjäsovelluksen kokonaisarkkitehtuuri, jonka tärkeimpiä tuloksia ovat modernisoinnin tavoitetila ja sovellusarkkitehtuuri. Tärkeimpiä jatkotoimenpiteitä ovat viitearkkitehtuuriin pohjautuvan modernisointiviitekehyksen laadinta sekä modernisointiprojektin arviointiin käytettävien mittareiden määrittely, suunnittelu ja toteutus. Relevanttien mittareiden avulla voidaan todeta, vastaako modernisoitu sovellus organisaation liiketoimintavaatimuksia ja strategiaa.

RFID-tekniikka on radiotaajuudella toimivaa etätunnistusta, jossa hyödynnetään RFID-tunnisteiksi kutsuttuja tageja, sekä RFID-lukijoita. RFID-tekniikan käyttökohteet ovat erittäin laajat. Tässä kandidaatintyössä tutkitaan RFID-tekniikan hyödyntämismahdollisuuksia teollisuuden huoltopalvelusuhteessa. Työ keskittyy huollettavien laitteiden etätunnistamiseen mobiileja RFID-lukijoita hyödyntäen. Laitteiden tiedot noudetaan olemassa olevasta tietokannasta web-käyttöliittymän kautta. Koska laitteet koostuvat pääosin metallista, joudutaan tunnistetyyppien valintaa pohtimaan tarkasti. Metallipinnat sekä nesteet vaikuttavat erittäin negatiivisesti useiden tunnisteiden lukuetäisyyteen. Työssä keskitytään vaadittavan järjestelmän suunnittelemiseen aikaisempia tutkimuksia hyödyntäen, mutta itse järjestelmän toteutus ei kuulu tähän kandidaatintyöhön. Lopussa järjestelmän alustava suunnitelma esitellään.

Abstract: Fifty-five bursa of Fabricius (BF) were evaluated by optical microscopy for three different avian histopathologists (H1, H3 and H4) to determine the degree of lymphoid depletion. One histologist evaluated the same slides at two different times (H1 and H2) with four-months interval between the observations. The same BFs were evaluated using the system of Digital Lymphocyte Depletion Evaluation (ADDL), being performed by three differents operators of the system, not histopathologists. The results showed was a significant difference between the histopathologists and between the scores established by the same expert (H1 and H2). However, there were not significant differences between the scores with the ADDL system, obtained using ADDL. The results make clear the fragility of the subjective lymphocyte depletion score classification by the traditional histologic method, while the ADDL system proves to be more appropriated for the assessment of the lymphoid loss in the BF.

Open data refers to publishing data on the web in machine-readable formats for public access. Using open data, innovative applications can be developed to facilitate people‟s lives. In this thesis, based on the open data cases (discussed in the literature review), Open Data Lappeenranta is suggested, which publishes open data related to opening hours of shops and stores in Lappeenranta City. To prove the possibility of creating Open Data Lappeenranta, the implementation of an open data system is presented in this thesis, which publishes specific data related to shops and stores (including their opening hours) on the web in standard format (JSON). The published open data is used to develop web and mobile applications to demonstrate the benefits of open data in practice. Also, the open data system provides manual and automatic interfaces which make it possible for shops and stores to maintain their own data in the system. Finally in this thesis, the completed version of Open Data Lappeenranta is proposed, which publishes open data related to other fields and businesses in Lappeenranta beyond only stores‟ data.

Growing traffic is believed to increase the risk of an accident in the Gulf of Finland. As the consequences of a large oil accident would be devastating in the vulnerable sea area, accident prevention is performed at the international, regional and national levels. Activities of shipping companies are governed with maritime safety policy instruments, which can be categorised into regulatory, economic and information instruments. The maritime regulatory system has been criticised for being inefficient because it has not been able to eliminate the violations that enable accidents. This report aims to discover how maritime governance systems or maritime safety policy instruments could be made more efficient in the future, in order to improve the maritime safety level. The results of the research are based on a literature review and nine expert interviews, with participants from shipping companies, interest groups and authorities. Based on the literature and the interviews, a suggestion can be made that in the future, instead of implementing new policy instruments, maritime safety risks should be eliminated by making the existing system more efficient and by influencing shipping companies’ safety culture and seafarers’ safety related attitudes. Based on this research, it can be stated that the development of maritime safety policy instruments should concentrate on harmonisation, automation and increasing national and cross-border cooperation. These three tasks could be primarily accomplished by developing the existing technology. Human error plays a role in a significant number of maritime accidents. Because of this, improving companies’ safety culture and voluntary activities that go beyond laws are acknowledged as potential ways of improving maritime safety. In the future, maritime regulatory system should be developed into a direction where the private sector has better possibilities to take part in decision-making.

A web service is a software system that provides a machine-processable interface to the other machines over the network using different Internet protocols. They are being increasingly used in the industry in order to automate different tasks and offer services to a wider audience. The REST architectural style aims at producing scalable and extensible web services using technologies that play well with the existing tools and infrastructure of the web. It provides a uniform set of operation that can be used to invoke a CRUD interface (create, retrieve, update and delete) of a web service. The stateless behavior of the service interface requires that every request to a resource is independent of the previous ones facilitating scalability. Automated systems, e.g., hotel reservation systems, provide advanced scenarios for stateful services that require a certain sequence of requests that must be followed in order to fulfill the service goals. Designing and developing such services for advanced scenarios with REST constraints require rigorous approaches that are capable of creating web services that can be trusted for their behavior. Systems that can be trusted for their behavior can be termed as dependable systems. This thesis presents an integrated design, analysis and validation approach that facilitates the service developer to create dependable and stateful REST web services. The main contribution of this thesis is that we provide a novel model-driven methodology to design behavioral REST web service interfaces and their compositions. The behavioral interfaces provide information on what methods can be invoked on a service and the pre- and post-conditions of these methods. The methodology uses Unified Modeling Language (UML), as the modeling language, which has a wide user base and has mature tools that are continuously evolving. We have used UML class diagram and UML state machine diagram with additional design constraints to provide resource and behavioral models, respectively, for designing REST web service interfaces. These service design models serve as a specification document and the information presented in them have manifold applications. The service design models also contain information about the time and domain requirements of the service that can help in requirement traceability which is an important part of our approach. Requirement traceability helps in capturing faults in the design models and other elements of software development environment by tracing back and forth the unfulfilled requirements of the service. The information about service actors is also included in the design models which is required for authenticating the service requests by authorized actors since not all types of users have access to all the resources. In addition, following our design approach, the service developer can ensure that the designed web service interfaces will be REST compliant. The second contribution of this thesis is consistency analysis of the behavioral REST interfaces. To overcome the inconsistency problem and design errors in our service models, we have used semantic technologies. The REST interfaces are represented in web ontology language, OWL2, that can be part of the semantic web. These interfaces are used with OWL 2 reasoners to check unsatisfiable concepts which result in implementations that fail. This work is fully automated thanks to the implemented translation tool and the existing OWL 2 reasoners. The third contribution of this thesis is the verification and validation of REST web services. We have used model checking techniques with UPPAAL model checker for this purpose. The timed automata of UML based service design models are generated with our transformation tool that are verified for their basic characteristics like deadlock freedom, liveness, reachability and safety. The implementation of a web service is tested using a black-box testing approach. Test cases are generated from the UPPAAL timed automata and using the online testing tool, UPPAAL TRON, the service implementation is validated at runtime against its specifications. Requirement traceability is also addressed in our validation approach with which we can see what service goals are met and trace back the unfulfilled service goals to detect the faults in the design models. A final contribution of the thesis is an implementation of behavioral REST interfaces and service monitors from the service design models. The partial code generation tool creates code skeletons of REST web services with method pre and post-conditions. The preconditions of methods constrain the user to invoke the stateful REST service under the right conditions and the post condition constraint the service developer to implement the right functionality. The details of the methods can be manually inserted by the developer as required. We do not target complete automation because we focus only on the interface aspects of the web service. The applicability of the approach is demonstrated with a pedagogical example of a hotel room booking service and a relatively complex worked example of holiday booking service taken from the industrial context. The former example presents a simple explanation of the approach and the later worked example shows how stateful and timed web services offering complex scenarios and involving other web services can be constructed using our approach.
