Using Rust as a Complement to C for Embedded Systems Software Development

Programmeringsspråket Rust utvecklas av en grupp som anser att det saknas språk som passar lågnivåutveckling och samtidigt är säkra. Rust har utvärderats genom att översätta 5000+ rader C-kod i ett inbyggt system. Rust levererar säkerhet, är smidigt och är inte resursintensivt.Rust aims to bring safety to low-level programming by using zero-cost ab- stractions. These provide, among other things, guaranteed memory safety and threading without data races. Garbage collected languages have become popular to guarantee safety, but in performance critical, memory limited or real time applications, it is not an ideal solution. Rust is safe and still has manual memory managemen

We Are Family: Family Business Case Study Analysis

This research paper introduces the concept of family/non-family boundary work as a form of boundary work. This study focuses on family member and non-family member employees working in a family-owned business who are involved in top management positions within the company. Through an analysis of narratives and interactive practices within the work context, based on ethnographic interviews and obse

Simuleringsbaserad Produktutveckling

FlatFrog develops a system for interactive displays, containing a glass where it’s concave shape is critical for the functioning of the system. By using simulation at an early stage of the product development process, the behavior of the glass and weak points in the structure can be detected even before prototyping. The purpose of the work was to simulate areas that, with relatively small means, c

Naturen i (bo)staden

Fler och er bor i städer, en miljö som ofta beskrivs i kontrast till natur. Men även om stadsmiljön är arti ciell och på vissa sätt själva motsatsen till begreppet natur, så är naturen ständigt närvarande i staden i form av klimat, växtlighet, årstider och väder. Att skapa möjligheter för upplevelser av natur är viktigt för människors välmående i staden. I denna ofta hektiska och intrycksmättade m

Experimentell rangordning av antändligheten hos kläder som används av riskgrupper

The purpose of this report is to find out which composition of fibres in clothes are the easiest to ignite when exposed to a smouldering fire (i.e. a cigarette). The end result of this report were several rankings concerning the ignitability of sweaters made of polar fleece, WCT-overalls, knitted cardigans (sweaters), dressing gowns (bathrobes) and sweatpants. Several conclusions could be made and

Higher Education and Female Labour Market Participation

While female labour market participation is increasing worldwide, the development in Chile is slow and concentrated to the capital city of Santiago de Chile. Education has been found to increase female labour market participation in several studies, where my thesis contributes to the research with more careful analysis of the effects of higher education. Rather than analysing the joint effect of h

A Landscape of Fear: Behavioural Responses in Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) to Risk Effects posed by Wolves (Canis lupus) and Human Hunters in a European Primeval Forest

In Białowieża primeval forest (BPF) wolves Canis lupus supress red deer Cervus elaphus foraging via behaviourally-mediated, non-consumptive effects. Humans provide an additional risk factor differentially exhibited between areas devoid of human intervention and areas with high human hunting and foresting activity. The aim of the study was to test the behavioural responses of red deer to risk effec

Feminism och regeringen Löfven: En idéanalys av Sveriges feministiska utrikespolitik

Since 2014 the Swedish government has had a feminist foreign policy. This thesis aims to examine which kind of feminism the policy is built upon. To investigate this a content analysis with a focus on ideas was used. Three different ideal types of feminism were set up from liberal, radical and socialist feminism. The material examined was made up of different official documents from the government

Omfördelningsbeslutet - En fallstudie om Polen

Problemet med romskt utanförskap: En diskurs- och maktanalys av problemframställningarna i regeringens strategi för romsk inkludering

The Roma population of Sweden has been oppressed by the government for hundreds of years, which has been manifested through lack of civil rights, forced sterilisations and expulsion from society. Today, however, the government aims to include the Roma through various strategies for Roma integration. Although explicit discrimination is not the case anymore, prejudice is often persistent in society.

The empirical data, gathered

Verkan av passivitet: Om köparens skyldighet att reklamera när säljaren handlat grovt vårdslöst eller i strid mot tro och heder

Uppsatsens syfte är att med utgångspunkt i NJA 2017 s. 1195 undersöka vilken verkan köparens passivitet får beträffande rätten att åberopa fel, när säljaren har handlat grovt vårdslöst eller i strid mot tro och heder. I NJA 2017 s. 1195 formulerade Högsta domstolen en på allmänna principer, och då främst på principer om lojalitetsöverväganden, grundad passivitetsregel. Den föreskriver att om säljaThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effect of the buyer’s non-performance, in terms of the right to claim defects, when the seller has acted with gross negligence or in violation of faith and honour. In NJA 2017 s. 1195 the Supreme Court formulated a non-performance-rule based on general principles, especially on principles of loyalty. It prescribes that if the seller has acted with g

Trade and sustainable development mechanisms - beyond window-dressing and talking shops? The effectiveness of the institutional mechanisms in EU trade and sustainable development chapters

Labour and environmental provisions became a prominent feature in trade agreements nowadays. Since 2011, the European Union devotes a whole chapter in its trade agreements to these issues - the trade and sustainable development (TSD) chapter. This paper argues that an important aspect of the EU’s approach are the institutional mechanisms which monitor the implementation of the TSD chapter. Applyin

A Horn in the Side: A case study on why the EU has interfered in Somalia

This thesis asks why the EU has expanded its military interventions in Somalia to a broad, multifaceted engagement. The thesis is a theoretically-informed, empirically-driven case study. The analysis rest on three theoretical concepts of global justice. I have formulated assumptions from these conceptions of global justice, which direct the analysis in answering the research question. The primary

European Identity: The Turkish quest for EU membership within the context of Europe’s competing narratives

The relationship between Turkey and the EU is one that stands out as specifically unique due to a decades-long controversy about what constitutes European identity in relation to Turkey’s bid for EU membership. This long-standing debate about Turkey regards an identity based on two differing concepts of Modern Europe and Europe where Modern Europe is seen as the ‘inclusive’ and Europe is viewed as

Svart i Sverige - En socialkonstruktivistisk analys av policys kring afrosvenskars situation

Swedish citizens of African descent, also known as afro Swedes, is a minority exceptionally exposed to different forms of racism, hate crimes and discrimination in society. From a perspective inspired by Helen Ingram and Anne Schneider's theory on the social construction of target populations, the construction of Afro Swedes in policy is evaluated in this paper. A thorough examination of the p

How discourse explains the actorness: the case of “shrinking civic space” in the statements of EU delegations

This study aims to examine how systemic factors shape the capabilities of a normative actor to project its power through the discourse. By looking into the statements of EU delegations related to shrinking civic space this study will identify patterns and variations in the EU discourse depending on the level of repression in the third country. We will claim that in the countries where civic space
