The wide and increasing range of screen sizes between Android devices makes consumers use them very differently. Large devices (like televisions) are more suitable to view content and smaller devices (like smart watches) are to be used more as a quick controller of the main application. Distributed user interfaces is the concept of utilizing several of these de- vices in one application, so that e
The e-commerce market is growing explosively and the competition between retailers grows larger every day. Companies will have to step up their offers in order to keep customers, and one way to do this is to improve their packaging. The main goal of this master’s thesis is to develop a proposal for an e-commerce packaging with an improved customer experience for the online clothing retailer nelly.
The aim of this thesis has been to analyze how social workers relate to the child perspective in the processing of social assistance. Previous studies have shown that there is a knowledge gap among social workers how to implement the child's perspective in the management of social assistance. This study has a qualitative research approach and six semi structured interviews have been conducted.
In today’s world of uncertainties, video surveillance is widely used to make the people of our society feel safe and protected. As more cameras are installed, the time of installation and ease of use play a critical role when customers decide which camera solution to select. One way to limit the number of cameras needed to cover multiple directions and large areas is to install a multidirectional
This paper examines the state of public transportation in the swedish county of Scania during the Covid-19 pandemic. Through travel statistics from the agency that runs the county’s transit network (Skånetrafiken) it is concluded that travel numbers have decreased dramatically during the pandemic. Two employees at Skånetrafiken are interviewed and asked about what measures the agency has taken dur
Private set intersection is a technique for finding the intersection of (two) parties' sets without disclosing anything else, and it finds it use in e.g. contact discovery, finding friends who are already on a social platform. Multi-party threshold private set intersection is an extension of this which allows multiple parties and only reveals the intersection if the intersection is larger than
Title Servitization in Manufacturing Firms: Exploring Possible Relations Between the Product-Service Systems Offered by Highly Servitized Manufacturing Firms and the Market Environments in which they Operate Authors Edvin Magneteg Max Parkosidis Supervisors Ola Alexanderson, Faculty of Engineering (LTH), Lund University Stefan Calling, ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems Background In recent years, an
Höganäs AB is developing an axial flux machine, where an even airgap between the stator and rotor is a vital parameter when designing a well functioning machine. It is believed that the stator is the component that introduces the biggest variations to the airgap, and that is why the stator is the object of investigation for this thesis. The stator is made of metal powder and the steps in the manuf
Vid läkemedelsutveckling används proteiner vars funktion är beroende på hur det är veckat (dess konformation). Denna veckning påverkas i sin tur av vätebindningar från vatten, som bildar vätskemiljön i kroppen där medicinen ska verka och styrkan av vätebindningar påverkas i sin tur av vattenmolekylernas orientering kring proteinet. För att kunna förutse proteinets funktion i kroppen är det därför A protein’s function is directly related to its structure, which is in a water medium where it is affected by hydrogen bonds and the hydrophobic effect. These interactions are in turn dependent on the water molecules’ orientations around the protein. Therefore, it is vital to have correct orientations for the water molecules. Such information can be obtained by neutron crystallography. However, ev
Genom att ta bilder i specifika våglängder på växer, från det visuella till det osynliga, kan man ta reda diverse information om växter såsom biomassa och stress. Detta kan man då göra med multispektrala kameror som oftast har varit monterade på satelliter. Satelliter har dock problem såsom eventuella molntäcken som täcker vyn över växterna. Drönare med multispektrala kameror har därmed blivit all
In recent years, discussions regarding problematic school absenteeism have increased in research and media. The Swedish National Agency for Education (Skolverket) observed an increase in both valid and invalid absences among students attending compulsory school in 2023, compared to previous years. Using Michael Lipsky's theory of street-level bureaucrats, which encompasses alienation, discreti
Which of the many available theories of consciousness should a newcomer to the field choose? We consider possible ways to deal with this conundrum. We argue that convergence of theories is unlikely. Next, we consider ways comparing theories highlighting significant issues with existing endeavors in this regard. Given the nature of the field, presumably empirical support has a critical role to play
Entrepreneurial marketing has proven to be important for a brand's survival in a fiercely competitive market. A well-communicated brand identity contributes to positive brand awareness, brand attitudes and legitimacy, which are important elements for a successful brand. There are some communication strategies for well-established companies, but to our knowledge, there is a lack of research on
Social media has taken a prominent position in our society and is constantly debated in media; warnings are mixed with promises of big opportunities. Young people writing about fashion and every day life make big money, politicians seek online for voters and big companies have found a new way to interact with their customers. Publishing houses and writers are forced to find their place in this new
The aim of this thesis is to explore the job satisfaction of librarians and try to nuance stereotypes, which the public has and which still exist in massmedia concerning librarians and their work. The study is qualitative and based mainly on semistructured interviews with ten libraries born between 1937s and 1973s of which eight are women and two men. Furthermore, I have divided them into two grou
The purpose of the study is to investigate how the legal parenthood is regulated in the law now in force. I focus on the establishing of paternity and motherhood as well as on how parenthood is regulated in the situation of an artificial insemination. The focus of my investigation is on the best interest of the child in question. I have also put the subject of parenthood in a historical context to
Best use of scientific knowledge is required to maintain the fundamental role of seafood in human nutrition. While it is acknowledged that genomic-based methods allow the collection of powerful data, their value to inform fisheries management, aquaculture, and biosecurity applications remains underestimated. We review genomic applications of relevance to the sustainable management of seafood resou
