Through the introduction of banking onto digital platforms, handheld devices and plastic cards, banking has become more flexible, mobile and indivi
Miyake et al. (2012,2013) upptäckte en snabb ökning av 14C i träringar daterade till 774-5 och 992-3 vilket tillskrevs exceptionalla kosmik strålnings händelser. Dessa extrema partikel händelser har inget motstycke i instrumentala eller hstoriska arkiv och blev följdaktigen mycket uppmärksammade. Många studier har försöt koppla samman dessa två händelser med sol protonstormar (SPE), supernovor, gaMiyake et al. (2012, 2013) discovered rapid increases of 14C content in tree rings dated to AD 774-5 and AD 992-3 which were attributed to unprecedented cosmic-ray events. These extreme particle events have no counterparts in the instrumental and historical record and consequently praised great interest. Indeed, many studies have tentatively associated the two events to solar proton events (SPE),
The thesis is primarily concerned with rare earth ions doped into yttrium ortho silicate crystals, RE:YSO. It is considered to be an ambitious platform for the development of quantum computing schemes. One such scheme requires the detection of single cerium ions. The project was aimed at measuring the saturation intensity of cerium 5d-4f transition which is needed for the single ion detection. Th
The research of pornography has always been sorrowful and affected by many accusations of researchers being ‘Porn apologists dressing up personal convictions to look more objective by attaching the word “studies” to the title of their journal’ or often according to anti-porn advocates they were ‘expressing their own opinions rather than producing research’ and were likely to write ‘fulsome article
Syfte: Syftet med vår studie är att ta reda på hur ett företags mångfaldsarbete konceptualiseras, hur detta implementeras och förmedlas internt samt hur det tas emot av medarbetarna i organisationen. Frågeställningar: - Hur konceptualiseras IKEA Malmös mångfaldsarbete? - Hur implementeras och kommuniceras mångfaldsarbetet på IKEA Malmö? - Hur upplever medarbetarna mångfaldsarbetet? Metod: En kva
Uppsatsen syftar till att jämföra hur tolkningen av targeting-reglerna inom den humanitära rätten skiljer sig åt mellan Sverige och USA. Uppsatsen fokuserar på grunderna inom targeting, dvs. distinktions- och proportionalitetsprincipen, och avser att åskådliggöra den amerikanska och svenska synen på vad som utgör ett lagligt mål och hur ett sådant mål attackeras på ett lagligt vis. En komparativThe purpose of the thesis is to compare how the interpretation of the law of targeting differs between the United States and Sweden. The thesis is focused on the basis of the law of targeting, i.e. the principles of distinction and proportionality, and answers the questions of what the view of the United States and Sweden is regarding what constitutes a lawful target and how to lawfully attack suc
This thesis describes how the development work associated with the construction of a circuit board. The circuit board that is constructed is a card that can drive two small stepper motors. The control of the driver is done by connecting the driver with a higher-level controller (CPP-card). This card is programmed to control the stepper motors. The development work has largely consisted in selectin
Implementation of a MES (Management Execution System) was made on a server that belongs to a factory owned by Oatly AB. The task was assigned by Schneider Electric AB in Helsingborg. Most of the time was spent in a Schneider Electric office, where new software in the field of energy analysis were studied, tested and finally implemented by remote controlling Oatly’s server. By using MES, measuremen
This report outlines a method to price and hedge a generalized swing option based on the European natural gas and electricity markets. The method is model free in that is does not assume a certain spot price dynamics. It only requires a forward curve and European call options prices that cover the delivery period of the swing option. The results is a lower bound derived from the price of forwards
China, the EU and the US are the top 3 destinations for exports from Africa. The implication for this relationship is that economic growth in these economic giants will have an effect on the aggregate demand of African economies through trade. Additionally, the emergence of China as an economic power has enabled it to increase its influence on the global stage on various fronts. African countries
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of vertical brand extensions on consumer perceptions and brand equity. The aim of this study is to take a strategic brand management perspective in order to answer two research questions: How does a vertical brand extension affect the brand? How does a vertical brand extension affect consumer perceptions of the core brand? The main finding in thi
En studie om godhetens idé, gestaltad i karaktären furst Mysjkin i Fjodor Dostojevskijs roman Idioten. Teoretisk utgångspunkt för analysen av romanens etiska och religiösa innehåll är västerländsk idealism och rysk-ortodox tradition. Genom att använda de narratologiska begreppen story och plot undersöks berättelserna kring varat, tiden och döden,samt Mysjkin som godhetens idé. I den övergripande s
The development during the Crimea crisis as well as Russia´s escalating numbers and extent of exercises has put Swedish security policy on the agenda after being almost invisible for over a decade. This work aims to investigate on which fundament Swedish security policy rests and why Sweden choose to stand outside an alliance. The answers then also answers the main question; how to understand Swed
Background Lagoons are shallow coastal water bodies which occupy 13 % of the world’s total coastlines. Healthy lagoons have a rich aquatic fauna and can provide an economic benefit for the people living in its vicinity. Due to anthropogenic activities, the water quality in many lagoons is deteriorating. The Mundaú-Manguaba Estuarine-Lagoon System is no exception. BOD-rich water from the nearby sug
In Sweden, green walls are relatively unknown. However, the technology in itself is not new; it has been used for several years in countries such as France, but it is only in recent years that the interest in green walls has increased in Sweden. In 2013, one of Sweden’s first public green walls outdoors was built at Sundstorget in Helsingborg. Furthermore, scientists from the Swedish University of
Varje medlemsstat har förbehållit sig rätten att lagstifta inom rättsområdet direkt beskattning. Det medför att medlemsstaterna är skatterättsligt suveräna och att gemensamma EU-beslut kan fattas inom detta rättsområde, under särskilda omständigheter. Trots detta har EU-domstolen sedan ca 30 år tillbaka, avkunnat domar som berör frågor huruvida regler inom den direkta beskattningens område är föreOver the years it has become clear that the Court of Justice of the European Union may, despite the principle of fiscal sovereignty rule on the compatibility of domestic tax measures belonging to the field of direct taxation, with the fundamental freedoms. Truthfully, the compatibility assessment is found much earlier in other fields of law. The last step of the methodology used by the Court encom

Globalization is an increasingly pervasive factor in the economy, and due to the increasingly international market and competition, it is becoming progressively difficult for firms in traditional, mature industries in high-wage countries to remain competitive. This thesis highlights the case of the Småland-Blekinge region that is performing paradoxically well, largely due to a manufacturing indust
Denna rapport ämnar att visa hur tjänster byggda på öppen källkod är ett bättre alternativ ur en informationssäkerhetsaspekt än stängd källkod. Genom intervjuer med branschaktiva tillsammans med teoristudier inom ämnet informationssäkerhet - samt artiklar om säkerhet inom specifikt öppen källkod - har vi kunnat visa på hur det är ett bättre alternativ än stängd källkod. Det har visat sig att d
