The Regional Song Game is a game that educates players to hone the ability of knowledge about folk songs in the form of questions given the Regional Song game. With the game Regional Songs, players can expand the ability of players about the knowledge of regional songs. Aside from being a means of entertainment, games can also be an exciting learning medium and do not make players bored, so it becomes a pleasant learning atmosphere. The linear congruent method (LCM) is a random number generator method that is widely used by computer programs. The application of the Linear Congruent Method (LCM) in the Regional Song game is intended to randomize the questions that will be displayed by the Regional Song game. Regional Songs Game is an application designed to provide insights about folk songs for the players. This game aims to reintroduce folk songs to the people lost by the ages.

Product life cycle management, LCM, is an emerging concept describing the efforts to study and develop the environmental efficiency of product life cycles. Its definitions vary and the understanding on its goal and related activities also affect the possible outcomes. The purpose of this study is to explore what is LCM and what are the related activities. The research related to corporate environmental management often relies on realist assumptions and technology-based views. These often fail to grasp the factors related to social interaction, subjective experiences and understanding that may be crucial in advancing environmental considerations in companies, and therefore a phenomenological approach is chosen for this study. An explorative research strategy is chosen to enable the use of different methods and to find authentically new information on the phenomenon. The study consists of two parts. First, the focus is on the definitions of LCM. Interpretative concept research suggests that the three core activities of LCM are (1) producing and using environment-related information, (2) implementing environmental improvements and (3) interaction and co-operation. The suggested environmental improvements by LCM can be seen as innovations. LCM and innovation activities are thus closely connected. Second, the study explores experiences from a case project. Qualitative data from interviews, participant observation and documentation describes a project studying and developing the environmental efficiency of Finnish beverage packaging, in 2000-2002. The case project was considered beneficial due to learning experiences. Data-driven findings suggest that the interaction and co-operation of actors and companies in the case project enabled and enhanced collective, continuous and experiential learning and knowledge creation. Interaction and co-operation were significant since they contributed to the building of professional expertise, to overcoming barriers and motivating for environmental work, to enhancing innovativeness and to implementing environmental improvements. There were also indications of affecting organizational cultures. LCM, when creating detailed environmental knowledge on product life cycles, can thus contribute to the development of dynamic and interactive corporate environmental management, as well as to the related strategic thinking in companies. ; Sanna Poikkimäki tutki väitöskirjassaan yritysten ympäristöjohtamiseen kuuluvaa tuotteiden elinkaarijohtamista. Elinkaarijohtamisen ydintoimintoja ovat ympäristötiedon tuottaminen ja hyödyntäminen, ympäristöparannusten toteuttaminen sekä vuorovaikutus ja yhteistyö.- Yritysten ja toimijoiden välisellä vuorovaikutuksella ja yhteistyöllä on keskeinen merkitys. Yhteistyössä luodaan uutta tietoa ja opitaan yritysten toimintaan ja tuotteisiin liittyvistä ympäristönäkökohdista. Elinkaarijohtaminen voi tuottaa ympäristöinnovaatioita. Se voi myös tukea vuorovaikutteista ja dynaamista ympäristöjohtamista ja siihen liittyvän strategisen ajattelun kehittymistä yrityksissä, Poikkimäki kertoo.Yritysten on välttämätöntä arvioida tuotteidensa elinkaarten ympäristövaikutuksia niihin liittyvien lainsäädännöllisten vaatimusten jatkuvasti lisääntyessä. Elinkaariajattelu voi tarjota myös merkittäviä mahdollisuuksia kehittää liiketoimintaa ja kilpailukykyä.Poikkimäki tarkasteli kokemuksia projektista, jossa tutkittiin ja kehitettiin suomalaisten juomapakkausten elinkaaren ympäristötehokkuutta. Companies face increasing legislative pressures to consider the environmental impacts of their products. The product life cycle perspective can also provide opportunities for business development.

Seltz, Gregory P., "LCMS Identity and Mission in the American Urban Context: Engaging Conian Black Theology through Strategic Lutheran Missiology." Ph.D. diss., Concordia Seminary, 2017. 304 pp. This dissertation addresses the challenges of the American urban context by dialoging with James Cone's Black Theology in order to construct an LCMS urban missiology. This LCMS urban missiology is a dynamic, Two-Kingdom, sacramental engagement strategy that addresses the issues endemic to the urban community for the sake of the community and for the sake of the Gospel. The American urban setting is fraught with challenges: identity politics, ethnic-sociological fragmentation, and the delegitimation-politicization of virtually all aspects of urban, public life. For faithful missiological engagement in the urban context, the LCMS needs to take such challenges seriously, by engaging in a racial critique of its missional practices and by relying upon its Two-Kingdom theology to form a unique missiological response. Through Bevan's synthetic model of contextual theology, this dissertation dialogues with Conian Black Theology to offer a racial, missional critique of the LCMS and to construct an LCMS urban missiology that differs from the public missiological engagements of Evangelical Theology and Black Theology. This urban missiology analyzes and then builds upon the historical-social location of the LCMS in urban ministry, offers a Two-Kingdom response to Cone's challenges, and presents a sacramental concrete understanding of missional practice that is not ultimately captive to specific political ideologies or policies. This LCMS urban missiological engagement is then used in a case study of the church's missiological engagement in the racially charged events of Ferguson, Missouri.

Die additive Fertigung von Schneidstoffen hat das Potenzial, leistungsfähigere Zerspanungswerkzeuge zu ermöglichen. Das Lithography-based Ceramic-Manufacturing-(LCM)-Verfahren erlaubt die Fertigung hochbelastbarer Bauteile aus Keramik. Dieser Beitrag stellt zum einen das LCM-Verfahren und zum anderen die Entwicklung additiv herstellbarer Wendeschneidplatten vor. Zuletzt erfolgt die Überprüfung der Funktionstauglichkeit von additiv hergestellten keramischen Wendeschneidplatten in Außenlängsdrehversuchen mit vermicularem Gusseisen (GJV-450).
 
The additive manufacturing of cutting materials has the potential to enable more efficient cutting tools. The Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM) process allows for the production of high-performance ceramic components. This article presents the LCM process as well as the development of indexable inserts that can be produced additively. Finally, the results of external longitudinal turning tests in Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI-450) are presented.
