Med teknikens utveckling öppnas nya dörrar för att utreda och bevisa brott. En ny sorts bevisning, i vart fall i svenska domstolar, är digital 3D-bevisning. Bevisningen byggs upp av bland annat laserskannad data, vilket kan rekonstruera och visualisera till exempel en brottsplats, ett händelseförlopp, kroppsskador, kulbane- och blodbildsanalyser i 3D. 3D-bevisning har hittills använts i ett fåtal With the rise of new technology, new doors are opened to investigate and prove crimes. A new kind of evidence, at least in Swedish courts, is digital 3D models. 3D models are made from data collected with different techniques but foremost laser scanning, which can reconstruct and visualise crime scenes, a course of events, bodily injuries, ballistic and blood print analyses in 3D. So far, 3D model

User generated data is getting more and more common. This data often expands in to hundreds of millions, if not billions, of data points. It is in the interest of every company with these vast amounts of data to make sense of them in one way or another. In machine learning, cluster analysis has been one way of trying to categorize data without supervision. Mahout is a library which runs on top of

This bachelor thesis uses the case of a double land allocation agreement on the Swedish island of Gotland and asks to what degree neoliberal planning is present when using the policy instrument. The main theoretical framework used was that of David Harvey(2005), on the manifestation of neoliberal policies. His framework puts forth four main ways in which neoliberal policies are manifested.

Entreprenadavtal karakteriseras av att arbetena de reglerar tenderar att vara omfattande, komplicerade och långvariga, vilket ställer krav på samverkan mellan entreprenadavtalets parter. När en av avtalsparterna inte utför sin huvudförpliktelse uppstår ett avtalsbrott, vilket kan innebära att vissa påföljder med anledning av avtalsbrottet aktualiseras. I särskilda fall kan den skadelidande parten Contracting contracts are characterized by the work they regulate tend to be extensive, complicated and long-lasting, which implies a demand on collaboration between the contracting parties. When one of the contracting parties does not fulfill their main obligation, a breach of contract arises, which may mean that some penalties arising from the breach of contract will be actualized. In special ca

This thesis sets out to explore the question – How does overconfidence affect entrepreneurial ventures? To answer this question a thorough body of literature has been reviewed. It turned out that this was a fairly well-researched area and many academic researchers have published on this topic. To support the body of literature, data has been collected through an auto-ethnographic perspective utili

The expanding membership of the European Union (EU), as well as the the expansion of the scope and the deepening of the level of integration, has contributed to increase diversity within the EU.

This essay therefore aims to test this theory on Swedish c

This strategy is analyzed through document analysis and structured interviews, using a theoretical framework of political ecology and urban green assemblages. This framework focuses analysis on the role of actors (human and non-human)

Att ställa om från fossila bränslen inom sjöfartssektorn kommer att bli ännu svårare än att vända en oljetanker. Det övergripande syftet med denna avhandling, som är förankrad i sustainability transitions-litteraturen, är att öka den nuvarande förståelsen för hur multiskalära uppifrån-och-ner- samt nerifrån-och-upp-processer påverkar sociotekniska förändringar som bidrar till minskade koldioxidutsShifting away from fossil fuels in the maritime shipping sector promises to be even more difficult than turning an oil tanker. Anchored in the sustainability transitions literature, the overall aim of this thesis is to advance the current understanding of how multi-scalar top-down and bottom-up processes influence socio-technical change towards decarbonisation of the global maritime shipping secto
