(TSE:6501, “Hitachi”) today announced that they have reached an agreement to undertake studies targeting joint development of solutions for increasing the efficiency of hospital management using IT. As part of efforts to become a carbon neutral nation, the Kingdom of Denmark (“Denmark”) is promoting activities with ambitious goals in a variety of fields, including the environment, energy and transport. In the healthcare field, since 2013, it has been promoting the “Super Hospital” concept*1, which involves the establishment of cutting-edge medical facilities in 16 locations throughout the country. Based on this Super Hospital concept, New Hospital and Mental Health Bispebjerg is scheduled to become the largest Super Hospital in Copenhagen by 2025, and is promoting activities aimed at reducing medical costs and increasing the level of medical services. *1 Super Hospital concept: A national project being promoted by the Danish government. The concept involves the aggregation of functions at 16 large-scale hospitals nationwide and the construction of a structure for the use of those functions across a broad geographical area. The goal of the concept is to further increase the efficiency and quality of advanced medical services, and to facilitate access to those services. Hitachi established the Hitachi Global Center for Innovative Analytics in April 2013 to act as a driving force behind the expansion of business in big data application fields by combining the resources of Hitachi Group’s laboratories and business divisions.

  • The Nyhavn Experience
    The Nyhavn Experience A non-representational perspective The deconstruction of the Nyhavn experience through hygge By Maria Sørup-Høj Aalborg University 2017 Tourism Master Thesis Supervisor: Martin Tranberg Jensen Submission date: 31 May 2017 Abstract This thesis sets out to challenge the existing way of doing tourism research by using a non- representational approach in looking into the tourist experience of Nyhavn, Denmark. The Nyhavn experience is deconstructed through the Danish phenomenon hygge, where it is being investigated how the contested space of Nyhavn with its many rationalities creates the frames, which hygge may unfold within. It is demonstrated how hygge is a multiple concept, which is constituted through various elements, including the audience, the actors and their actions, the weather, the sociality, the materiality and the political landscape in Nyhavn. The elements in the study are being discussed separately in order to give a better view on the different aspects. However, it is important to note point out that these aspects cannot be seen as merely individual aspects of establishing hygge, but that they are interrelated and interconnected in the creation of the atmosphere of hygge. The collecting of the data was done via embodied methods inspired by the performative turn in tourism, where the focus is on the embodied and multisensous experience. This is carried out by integrating pictures, video and audio clips, observant participation and impressionist tales in order to try to make the ephemeral phenomenon hygge as concrete as possible. Furthermore, data have been collected via netnography on TripAdvisor and travel blogs respectively. The study is characterized by being transdisciplinary, where theory has been drawn in from various fields, such as tourism, human geography, sociology, anthropology and sociology of the senses.

  • Det Historiske Hjørne V/ Jørgen Villadsen W2C3 Grønnegårds Havn
    Det historiske hjørne v/ Jørgen Villadsen W2C3 Grønnegårds Havn. ”Christiansbro er den nye eksklusive del af Christianshavn, der ligger fra Knippelsbro og ned til Christianshavns kanal.” hedder det i Skanskas reklamemateriale for byggeriet Enhjørningen. Det materiale vi modtog ved den første information om byggeriet. Jeg vil i det følgende prøve at give en beskrivelse af området fra Arilds tid og til i dag, hvor det indrammes af Torvegade, Overgaden neden Vandet, Hammershøj Kaj og havnepromenaden langs kontorbygningerne. Oprindelig var området et lavvandet sumpet område mellem Amager og Sjælland, hvor sejlbare render lå over mod fiskerlejet Havn på Sjællands kyst. På nogle små øer byggede Absalon borg i 1167. Der hvor Christiansborg i dag ligger. Det ældste billedmateriale fra omkring 1580 og samtidige skriftlige kilder viser at forsyninger med fødevarer til København fra Amager foregik ved en primitiv færgefart mellem Revsholm på Amager og Københavns havn ved nuværende Højbro Plads. (Skovserkonens stade.) Københavns havn var på denne tid kun vandet mellem Slotsholmen og København. Nuværende Frederiksholms kanal og Gl. Strand. Der var dog et yderligere sejlløb i forlængelse af Gl. Strand, Bremerholm dyb. Det er fyldt op i dag og findes kun i gadenavnene, Dybensgade, Bremerholm og Holmens bro. I 1556 forærer Christian den III Københavns borgere Grønnegårds havn . Et område der svarer til grundene hvorpå Enhjørningen, Løven og Elefanten er placeret. Dengang var området først og fremmest vand omgivet af lidt sumpet land mod øst. Havnen blev brugt som vinterhavn for Københavns handelsskibe, der her kunne ligge i læ for vejr og vind, når de var lagt op for vinteren.

The offshore turbines are connected by cable to the transformer at the Amager power plant 3.5 km away. Kongedybet Hollænderdybet Middelgrunden Saltholm Flak 2 From Idea to Reality The idea of the Middelgrunden wind project was born in a group of visionary people in Copenhagen already in 1993. However it took seven years and a lot of work before the first cooperatively owned offshore wind farm became a reality. Today the 40 MW wind farm with twenty modern 2 MW wind turbines developed by the Middelgrunden Wind Turbine Cooperative and Copenhagen Energy Wind is producing electricity for more than 40,000 households in Copenhagen. In 1996 the local association Copenhagen Environment and Energy Office took the initiative of forming a working group for placing turbines on the Middelgrunden shoal and a proposal with 27 turbines was presented to the public. At that time the Danish Energy Authority had mapped the Middelgrunden shoal as a potential site for wind development, but it was not given high priority by the civil servants and the power utility.
