Sammanfattning: Ett informationssystem är i grund och botten ett sätt att lagra och bearbeta information. Alla sådana system bygger på en informationsmodell, det vill säga en modell för hur data organiseras för att de ska gå att bearbeta och omvandla till information. Idag existerar avancerade informationssystem för att göra spatiala analyser (GIS) och för att hantera byggnader (BLM-system). För nSummary: An information system is basically a way to store and process information. All such systems are built from an information model, in essence a model for how to organize data in order to make it possible to process, thus turning it into information. Today there exist advanced information systems for performing spatial analysis (GIS) and to model buildings (BLM-systems). At present the devel

The aim of this paper was to from a social constructivistic perspective highlight the representations of homeless people and homelessness given in Swedish daily/evening papers. The questions it aimed to answer were: how are homelessness and homeless people represented in daily/evening papers? Do the daily and evening paper’s representations correspond with what researches and the National Swedish

Två av de grundläggande rättigheterna är yttrandefriheten och rätten till privatliv. Respektive rättighet är skyddad i Europakonventionen enligt artikel 8 och artikel 10. Rättigheterna ska värderas lika. Rättigheterna är dock inte absoluta och undantags kan göras i lag enligt 8:2 och 10:2 om det finns ett legitimt syfte eller nödvändigt för demokratin. Rättigheter kan stå i konflikt med varandra.Two of the most fundamental rights are freedom of expression and privacy. These rights are regulated in Article 8 and Article 10 in the European Convention of Human Rights (ECHR). These two rights can be in conflict with each other. The rights are not absolute, which means that they can be intruded upon when prescribed by law, legitimate aim or when necessary in a democratic society. The intrusion

Problemformulering: Det ställs alltmer skärpta krav på att förbättra miljö, arbetsmiljö, logistik och ekonomi inom byggproduktion och det krävs därmed att hitta nya metoder som tillmötesgår de nya kraven. Konfektionering har tagits upp som en metod som kan minska byggproduktionens miljöpåverkan och skapa en bättre arbetsmiljö. Om denna metod även kan användas för att effektivisera logistiken och mProblem: In the construction industry there are increasingly higher requirements to reduce the environmental impact and production costs as well as improve the work environment and construction logistics. To meet these new requirements, new production methods are needed. Studies have shown, ready-to-use construction materials can be used in order to improve the environmental impact and the work en

The global demand for fresh food has increased during the past five years and the demand is anticipated to continue growing in the future. The consumers' expectations are also getting higher and higher, which is why it is of great importance that the actors within the food industry meet these requirements to remain competitive. Fresh food is perishable goods which have a short shelf life. The

The area of VAT constitutes an area fully harmonized within the EU, and the framework for the European VAT is established in the VAT Directive and is implemented in Sweden through the Swedish VAT Act. The European VAT is a general tax on consumption with the purpose of only taxing purchases for personal consumption. However, the European VAT cover all stages of production and distribution. To achi

Degrowth refers to an alternative human society which is simplistic, cooperative and opposite of current growth system which is based on overproduction and overconsumption. The current growth trend is indisputably unsustainable for the future being of the earth and its’ population. Resource depletion, land degradation and climate change have become inevitable due to growth system, overproduction a

Under de senaste årtiondena har det skett en ökning av antalet anmälda sexualbrott, inte minst sexuella ofredanden. Därtill synliggjorde #metoo- rörelsen omfattningen av mäns sexuella våld mot kvinnor och gav nytt bränsle åt diskussionen om rättvisa för brottsoffer. Arbetet skrivs i ljuset av denna utveckling och syftar till att undersöka hur många anmälningar om sexuella ofredanden som leder tiIn recent decades, there has been an increase in the number of reported sexual offences in Sweden, including sexual molestation. Additionally, the #metoo movement highlighted the extent of men's sexual violence against women and created momentum for the debate on justice for victims. Considering these developments, this study aims to examine how many reports of sexual molestation result in a

Internationella organisationer är ett fenomen som vuxit fram främst på senare tid. De har blivit en naturlig del av den internationella rätten och ses som väsentliga aktörer på den internationella arenan. Ett medlemskap i en internationell organisation ger en stat flera fördelar men vanligtvis innebär det även ett bortfall av statens suveränitet som ges upp till förmån för organisationens överstatInternational organizations are a phenomenon that has developed foremost recently. They have become a natural part of international law and are viewed as essential actors on the international arena. A membership gives a state multiple benefits but usually also implicates a loss of state sovereignty in favor to the advantage of supranationalism, which sometimes prohibits the states. To manage this

Purpose: This investigation was designed to examine the effects of self-monitored training combined with the use of delayed auditory feedback (DAF), on the accuracy of articulation in acquired apraxia of speech (AOS). Background: The increased number of stroke survivors leads to higher societal costs when it comes to e.g., rehabilitation. Speech and language deficits post stroke can be diminished

The present perceptual learning study was conducted in an attempt to investigate to which extent naïve listeners’ L1 prosodic background affected their learning performance of a lexical tone language and whether an auditory-image (AI) training paradigm curtailed the online-learning process of lexical tones. Thirty-three Mandarin-naïve Swedish-native listeners (NS listeners) and 33 Mandarin-naïve E

Bibliometrics is an important tool for researchers within the field of library and information science. Most studies that use bibliometrics to study interdisciplinarity have either been evaluations or have taken the perspective of a single discipline. There has also been a focus on the social aspects of research, that is publications and people, whereas studies that look at the cognitive aspects,

Background and objectives: Type 2 diabetes has been increasing all over the world. A healthy diet, including particular functional foods is an effective strategy to prevent this form of diabetes. Nopal (Oputia ficus) is a cactus plant that, according to traditional medicine, has antidiabetic properties. The objective of this research was to examine the effects of different fractions of nopal clado

The European Spallation Source, currently under construction in Lund, Sweden, will be the world's brightest neutron source. It is driven by a linear accelerator designed to accelerate a beam of protons with 62.5 mA, 2.86 ms long pulses, working at 14 Hz. The final section of its normal-conducting front-end consists of a 39 m long drift tube linac divided into five tanks, designed to accelerate

This master thesis has been made on behalf of Sony Ericsson in co-operation with Machine Design at Lund Institute of Technology. The background is a need within Sony Ericsson to test moulded plastic parts before they are assembled together to a phone. There are today various specified tests that are made on every single phone before it is launched, but they are all made on complete assembled phone

Det skånska landskapet har sedan 1800talet varit starkt påverkat av lantbruket. Åar har rätats ut, fördjupats och kulverterats, vilket i kombination med en ökad gödsling har lett till ökat näringsläckage som gett konsekvenser i form av minskad biologisk mångfald och övergödning. Ett sätt att minska övergödningen är att anlägga vallbesådda skyddszoner längs vattendrag. Lantbrukare kan få ersättningThe landscape of Scania in southern Sweden has been heavily influenced by agriculture since the 1800s. Rivers have been straightened, deepened and culverted which in combination with increased fertilization has had consequences such as loss of biodiversity and eutrophication. One way to reduce eutrophication is to construct grass seeded buffer zones along watercourses. Farmers can receive compensa

Den här texten behandlar auktorisationsregler, med ett särskilt fokus på lärarlegitimationer. Det huvudsakliga syftet är att avgöra om utformandet av lärarlegitimationsreformen var det riktiga för att uppnå syftet med reformen, men texten fungerar även som en sammanställning av gällande rätt. Det är särskilt viktigt för lärarlegitimationer, där reglerna aldrig satts i något sammanhang. De auktorisThis text is a treatment on occupational licensing, with a focus on certification for teachers. The main purpose is to determine if the format used when the certification was implemented in 2011 was the right way to accomplish the purpose of the reform. The text also works as a summary of applicable law, which is important regarding teachers, since it has never been done before. The examined occup

Climate change is expected to alter soil nutrient availability and microbial community functionality. Inputs of labile carbon (C) from root exudates can stimulate the decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) in a phenomenon known as “priming”; driven by microbial demand for limiting resources. Climate-driven changes in resource availability may therefore influence soil susceptibility to priming,

Membrane fouling, particularly by soft, deformable particles, is a significant challenge in microfiltration (MF) processes, leading to reduced efficiency and increased operational costs. This thesis investigates the formation of filter cake layers by numerically simulating fluid flow through microfluidic membranes designed with random, non-overlapping cylindrical micropillar arrays. The study aims
