Recent research has revealed that interdisciplinary work combining archaeological and heritage practice continues to be limited by enduring assumptions separating the two fields. Traditional structures and institutional barriers make it difficult to break away from what is expected in order to explore what is possible in what archaeologists and heritage practitioners ‘do’. Though archaeologists pl
In the field of operations and supply chain management (OSCM), the customer order decoupling point (CODP) hasi been recognized as an important strategic parameter for roughly 30 years. It is the point in the value chain where forecast-driven material flows get separated from order -driven material flows. Despite its long history in the field, multiple calls for further consideration of the CODP in
Using a newly digitised historical dataset on clean water technologies in Swedish cities, this study tries to find the causal effect (and the magnitude of this effect) of the introduction of clean water technology on mortality in urban areas. Using urban mortality data on a county level, and clean water access data on city level, both OLS, fixed effects, and difference-in-differences models are tr
Den 1 juli 2010 genomfördes en reform som syftade till att höja straffnivån för allvarliga våldsbrott. Genom reformen infördes bland annat en ny mening i 29 kap. 1 § 2 st. BrB som anger att det vid bedömningen av det konkreta straffvärdet särskilt ska beaktas om gärningen inneburit ett allvarligt angrepp på någons liv eller hälsa eller trygghet till person. I motiven till meningen angav regeringenA reform, aiming to increase the level of penalty for severe crimes of violence, was implemented July the 1st 2010 in the Swedish Penal code. Among other changes, a new sentence was imposed in 29:1 1st paragraph BrB. This sentence states that the court, when determining the concrete penal value, in particular should take into account if the criminal act was a serious assault on a person’s life or
We have studied if there is a possible link between states’ membership in intergovernmental organizations and a desire to participate in democratization processes in our chosen analytical objects Estonia and Belarus. We analysed our empirical findings by categorizing the membership of each countries membership in IGOs. By comparing what organization each country is a part of and which ones they ha
Nectar Sources in Sand Dunes – the Pollinators’ Last Stronghold Dunes are a habitat of special importance. They preserve a wide range of flowering plant species that has vanished from most places in our intensively used landscape. This is vital for both the survival of the plant species themselves, but also of many insect pollinator species. Pollinators depend on the presence of nectar and pollen
Kanari Domna Mining geosocial data from Flickr to explore tourism patterns: The case study of Athens Social media are providing a new type of geo-tagged data that by processing them, new types of knowledge can be generated and used by decision-makers in different areas including tourism. It includes e.g., identifying touristic areas that are not prioritized or advertised by touristic authorities
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka diskrimineringslagens användbarhet utifrån den enskildes perspektiv, med utgångspunkt i den enskildes upplevelse av diskriminering samt den enskildes behov i och av en diskrimineringstvist. Bakgrunden är en enkätundersökning om diskriminering mot underläkare gjord av SYLF, Sveriges yngre läkares förening, som visar att majoriteten av de som upplevt disThe purpose of this essay is to examine the availability of the Swedish Discrimination Act from the perspective of the individual, based on the individual’s experience of discrimination and the individual’s needs in a discrimination dispute. The background to the examination is a survey on discrimination towards junior doctors made by SYLF, Sveriges yngre läkares förening. The survey shows that a
Inducing plasmacytoid dendritic-like cells with cell reprogramming Dendritic cells (DCs) are a type of immune cell with the ability to take up self and foreign molecules, process them and present a small part of them to T cells, another immune cell that can generate specific immune responses. DCs are subdivided in conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs). cDCs a
The aim of the project was to develop a methodology for the chromatographic analysis able to identify the key odorants in meaty food products. The approach was based on the analysis of an already in market product and the theoretical background of the meaty flavors sensorially. Firstly, a custom-made flavor was created for the experiments covering as much as possible a broad area of compounds prec
Målet med denna masteruppsats var att designa och implementera funktionalitet i Grades plattform som hjälper slutanvändarna att känna sig mer engagerade. En process baserad på litteraturgenomgång, konkurrentanalys och designiterationer resulterade i en lösning som integrerade två välkända gamificationkoncept; poängtavlor och utmärkelser.

A process based on literature research, competitor analysis and design iterations allowed for a solution that integrated two well-known gamification concepts; leaderboards and badges. The literature research provided the authors wit
The aim of this study has been to explore social workers negotiations and meaning making on heterosexual norms, in order to understand possibilities on how to change these norms within the social services. The study consists of material from two different municipalities which both has participated in a project on heterosexual norms. Both municipalities have had a group of seven people discussing i
This paper presents a 3rd-order, 3-bit continuous-time (CT) \Updelta\Upsigma Δ Σ modulator for an LTE radio receiver. A return-to-zero (RZ) pulse, centered in the sampling period by a quadrature clock, is used in the innermost DAC to reduce the sensitivity to loop-delay variations in the modulator, and omit implementing the additional loop delay compensation usually needed in CT modulators. The pe
Playing digital games is now a common everyday practice in many homes. This paper deals with the constitution of such practices by taking a closer look at the material objects essential to play and their role in the “design of everyday life” (Shove et al 2007). It uses ethnographic method and anthropological practice theory to attend to the domestic spaces of leisure and play, the home environment
This text deals with a problem concerning processes of the productive power of knowledge. We draw on so called poststructural theories challenging the classical image of thought – as hinged upon a representational logic identifying entities in a rigid sense – when formulating a problem concerning the gap between knowledge and the object of knowledge. More specifically we are looking at this proble
If things go as planned, the EU will have two new member states in January 2007: Bulgaria and Romania. They were excluded from the 2004 enlargement because they were simply lagging behind the other candidates and would not have been able to meet the conditionality. The Copenhagen conditions consist of a political, an economic, and an administrative criteria that need to be fulfilled in order to ga
