Då psykisk ohälsa i dagsläget är den vanligaste sjukskrivningsorsaken bland akademiker i Sverige var syftet med denna uppsats att undersöka om förändring i arbetssätt påverkade de anställdas självskattning av motivation, tillfredsställelse av grundläggande psykologiska behov och psykologiskt välmående. Förändringen innebar att anställda gick från enskilt arbete till teamarbete med Kanban som metodThe most common reason for sick leave amongst academics in Sweden today is mental illness. With this in mind, the aim of this Master’s thesis was to investigate whether changes in work design led to self-ratxed changes in motivation, basic psychological need satisfaction and psychological well-being. Employees work design changed from working alone to virtual teamwork with Kanban as the method. Tw

This Master’s thesis explain the effects of New Public Management on the democratic role of the archives, and investigates how this is evident in the archive's governing and policy documents. It mainly uses renamed versions of Christopher Hood's (1991) seven doctrines of New Public Management to present New Public Management, as well as where they may be in conflict with Terry Eastwood'

This thesis aims to examine whether archive pedagogy is a useful learning resource in school today, and if so, how this cooperation works in reality. We want to find out how the archive's educational resources are perceived by teachers and students, and where the possible obstacles may lay. By examining how teachers and students perceive the archive education, our study can contribute to bette

Focusing on Swedish text-based, public library professional communications, this study investigates how discursive constructions in relation to library makerspaces represent and endorse certain institutional values, librarian praxis, and development strategies. The analysis highlights characterisation patterns that emerge through the discursive constructions of making, makers, and makerspaces. It

The aim of this Master’s thesis is to analyse the discourse of accessibility at the Regional Archives in Lund. The focal point of the study is the interaction between the archivist and the user of the archival records, which stems from questions regarding how archival records are mediated in the dialogue between the archivist and the user, and if the archive’s construct of access is perceived as a

In order to simulate complex combustion systems, the kinetic mechanisms describing the chemical processes have to be reduced. To minimize the error introduced by the reduction, coefficients of the reaction rates included in the mechanisms can be adjusted in ways so that simulations using the reduced mechanism behave like simulations that use detailed mechanisms. One can then run simulations with d

Bakgrund: Reumatoid artrit (RA) är en av de vanligaste reumatiska sjukdomarna i Sverige och är vanligast förekommande bland kvinnor. Många personer med RA drabbas av den kroniska tröttheten fatigue, vilket på sistone har uppmärksammats som ett av de mest besvärliga symtomen vid RA. Att det idag inte finns tillräckligt med forskning kring hur RA-relaterad fatigue påverkar vardagen anser författarnaBackground: Reumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common rheumatic diseases in Sweden and is most frequent among women. Many people with RA get affected by the chronic tiredness fatigue, which lately has been noted as one of the most difficult symptoms along with RA. Since there is a lack of research regarding how RA-related fatigue affects everyday life, the authors consider this as a knowl

What's the point of a back cover? When converting an initially printed book into a digital format, the front cover is almost always included in the electronic file, the back cover however, is not. The aim of this thesis is to examine the back covers of picturebooks, based on what function they serve in relation to the work, as well as to intermediaries and readers of the work. With the theoret

The digitalization of the Swedish public sector has led to new responsibilities for the Swedish National Archives, Riksarkivet. This study investigates the Swedish National archives’ responsibility regarding the common specifications also known as CS. CS are, in short, standardization requirements for transcription metadata in the context of e-archives. The purpose of this thesis is to make visibl

Since 1766 the principle public access to official documents have been the main rule and secrecy the exception within the Swedish State. During the early 20th century this principle however became challenged by the emerging welfare state and its need to collect integrity sensitive data to achieve its goal of creating equal opportunities for all its citizens. As a result of this development several

Djupa faltningsnätverk har blivit otroligt populära de senaste åren tack vare sin förmåga att lära sig att förstå innehållet i signaler och bilder. Dessa djupa nätverk ligg\-er bakom moderna tekniker såsom självkörande bilar och avancerad ansiktsigenkänning i mobiltelefoner. Genom att undersöka hur strukturer kan utvinnas ur dessa nätverk så kan vi förbättra vår förmåga att lära oss nya problem.Deep convolutional neural networks are great at learning structures in signals and sequential data. Their performance have surpassed most non-convolutional algorithms on classical problems within the field of image analysis. A reason behind their success is that even though these networks generally need a great amount of examples to learn from, they can be used to learn smaller tasks through diffe

The city of Brăila, Romania, has been undergoing a lot of changes in the last two decades, but as the city is shrinking there is a new initiative to change the current paradigm and to reinvent the city. This process starts with the creation of an urban system with the neighboring city of Galați that will attract more funds from a regional and national level. The first steps have been taken in this
