As there currently are not so many known studies which directly evaluate how diversity indices have been used in different contexts, following literature study was made with the purpose of investigating how three of the most commonly used diversity indices (including Shannon-Wiener’s and Simpson’s Indices as well as a certain index measuring taxonomic diversity) are representing different categori
Säkerhet ses oftast som en del av en teknisk lösning vilket gör att företag har en tendens att dedicera mer resurser till teknisk säkerhet, snarare än strategisk säkerhet. Mänskliga faktorer kan ha en avgörande negativ roll för informationssäkerheten inom företag om grunden till informationssäkerheten inte hanteras på rätt sätt. Uppsatsen undersöker kopplingen mellan modellen CIA-triadens olika de
Abstract Title: The Challenges of Employee-Driven Innovation and its Relation to Decision Structures Date of the seminar: 18th of May 2016 Course: ENTN39 Master´s Corporate Entrepreneurship and Innovation Internship and degree project (Master´s thesis 15 ECTS) Author: Aline Studemund & Joel Wallington Supervisor: Joakim Winborg Keywords: Corporate Entrepreneurship, Employee-Driven Innova
This study aims to investigate the impact of foreign aid on economic growth by using an exogenous instrument identified by Galiani et al. (2015). Researchers have through the years failed to agree on whether aid causes growth, being unable to identify an exogenous instrument that can eliminate the endogeneity problem associated with aid and growth. Galiani et al. (2015) claim to have found such an
Foreign nationals may, according to Swedish law, be placed in detention centers. That means that they are deprived of their liberty for the purpose of being accessible for the migration authorities. The person will thereby be placed in a designated premises provided by the Swedish Migration Agency, although an incapacitation in police custody or correctional facilities can also become a reality. T
During the last decades, there have been tremendous improvements in Silicon-based transistor technologies such as operational speed increase as well as size and cost reduction. However, the bandwidth in modern processors is significantly limited by the data transfer in the metallic interconnects. Inspired by the long-range telecommunication technologies, the industry is developing the field of int
Degrowth is an academic concept and activists' niche project in Europe and other early-industrialized parts of the world aiming to reframe the current sustainability challenge of declining environmental and unjust social conditions. Its emphasis is on the radical transformation of the current societal-economic structure in order to achieve inherently sustainable conditions. There are various d
This thesis concerns the current highly debated issue on the Swedish labour market, regarding the prevailing lack of integration of immigrants. Firstly, it is common that highly educated individuals find themselves at work positions where they are overly qualified in terms of education and experience, for example, when an engineer works as a taxi driver. Secondly, there is a higher rate of unemplo
Den högre utbildningen står inför IT-utvecklingen, digitalisering av salstentamen. Detta innebär att datorn är ett hjälpmedel vid en salsexamination. Inget lärosäte i Sverige har idag infört digital salstentamen fullt ut, utan endast enstaka fakulteter samt vissa kurser använder sig av IT-stödet. Denna uppsats ämnar undersöka studenters upplevda nytta med digital salstentamen samt identifiera vilk
För att minska risk för patientskador och öka säkerheten vid kirurgiska ingrepp utarbetade WHO, år 2008, en checklista som ska bidra till bättre samarbete och kommunikation mellan olika yrkesgrupper inom sjukvården. Trots gott mottagande och goda resultat av checklistans användande, visar både svenska och internationella studier att checklistan inte följs fullt ut. Syftet med studien var att beskr
The global climate is changing, mostly due to human impacts of greenhouse gases emissions. These changes in climate have lead to an increase in global warming, increasing extreme storm events and an increase in sea-level etcetera. Areas located along the coast will suffer from coastal erosion and flooding as a result of the impact from the climate changes. These impacts can lead to major socio-eco
Användbarhet i system är idag en stor faktor för om ett utvecklingsprojekt får ett lyckat utfall eller inte. Likväl går det att konstatera att implementering av ett enhetligt system inom en verksamhet kräver förändring av arbetsprocesser vilken kan få en naturlig påverkan på systemets användbarhet. Studien behandlar frågan om hur användbarhet kan påverkas i ett enhetligt informationssystem och ana
The effect of external electron acceptors, i.e. fructose and oxygen, on the growth and metabolism of L. reuteri DSM 17938 was analysed using spectrophotometry, HPLC, carbon balance, metabolic flux analysis, enzyme assays and bioinformatics. This strain does not produce much hydrogen peroxide even when 400ml/L air is sparged through the culture. The results revealed that oxygen is not a superior el
IT i skolan har ökat de senaste åren. Det läggs mycket fokus på att integrera digitala tekniker och verktyg i skolvärlden och klassrummen. I takt med detta har även pedagogers administrativa börda ökat, dels till följd av att det integreras allt mer IT och teknologi. För att ta reda på hur IT och teknologi kan implementeras så att det får en lyckad användning och kan hjälpa istället för stjälpa lä
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka möjligheten att bemöta missbruket av egenföretagande genom att applicera arbetstagarbegreppen i Sverige och i EU. Den fria rörligheten för tjänster och arbetare inom den interna europeiska marknaden öppnar upp för gränsöverskridande arbete mellan EU:s medlemsstater och det kan hävdas att egenföretagande kan användas för att kringgå nationella arbetsrättslaThe aim of this thesis is to investigate the possibility to combat the abuse of self-employment by applying the concepts of employment in Sweden and the EU. The free movement of services and workers within the internal market of the EU opens up for cross-border work between EU Member States and some claim that self-employment can be used as a way to circumvent national labour laws, collective agre
The expansion of Swedish wind energy grid has come at the cost of environmental, economic and social controversy, in which the issue of landscape quality change plays a prominent role. Tourism, an industry highly reliant on visual consumption of the landscape, is especially sensitive to this change. Scholars have repeatedly harvested evidences of a weak, but negative correlation between wind power
Cognition is one of human kind’s most important features in our own opinion. The more we know about the cognitive abilities of different species the more we know about how cognition has evolved. Self-awareness is a mental trait associated with high levels of cognition and something previously considered to be exclusive to humans and possibly apes. The most common test of self-awareness is a test o
A forward recursive estimation method is used to examine stock market data on unit root against explosive behavior as an indication of financial exuberance. Through specific dividend-stock pricing modeling, the recursive implementation of a right-tailed ADF test allows for directly testing the price index series on explosive behavior and its corresponding dividend series on non-explosive behavior.
The effects of climate change and urbanization will increase the risk of flooding in urban areas due to increased precipitation and larger amount of impervious surfaces. Svedala, a municipality in southern Sweden and its storm water recipient Segeå is one area that will be at greater risks in the future. The aim of this study is to compile information about flood risks in Svedala to identify the n
