The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) serves as the preeminent uniform legal framework governing international sales. Central to its application is Article 8, which prescribes a tripartite hierarchy for interpreting party intent by prioritizing subjective intent, applying the objective reasonable person standard, and mandating a holistic review of al
As wireless communication systems evolve toward 6G and joint communication and sensing paradigms, emerging applications impose stringent low-latency constraints on target tracking systems. Within the hardware implementation of particle filters, the traditional systematic resampling algorithm suffers from global data dependencies and sequential memory accesses, creating a fundamental performance bo
This thesis aims to deepen the understanding of women’s entrepreneurship in Skåne, Sweden, and to examine how entrepreneurial support organizations (ESOs) contribute to overcoming barriers in the business development process. Using a mixed-methods approach, including two literature reviews, four in-depth interviews, and a quantitative questionnaire, the study applies triangulation of empirical inf
This thesis investigates the economic and operational consequences of price-responsive operation of a large-scale alkaline electrolyzer producing hydrogen for fossil-free steel production. A time-resolved linear optimization model was implemented in Python, describing the interaction between a 740 MW electrolyzer (37 units of 20 MW), a hydrogen storage and a constant hydrogen demand. Three operati
The revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) strengthens the regulatory framework for improving the energy performance of the existing building stock in the European Union. In Sweden, the implementation of the directive is particularly relevant for residential buildings with low energy performance, especially buildings in energy classes F and G. This thesis examines how the revised

The study addresses the challenge of evaluating sourcing alternatives across Europe and Asia-Pacific, where differences in cost, lead times, risk exposure, and sustainability create complex trade-offs. The purpose is to develop a practi
Föräldrabeteenden och familjefunktion är viktiga aspekter av uppväxtmiljön. Dessa kan formas av en bredd av kontextuella faktorer, däribland intra- och interpersonellt fungerande. Med en dimensionell klassificering av personlighetsfungerande undersöker denna examensuppsats ifall nivå av personlighetsdysfunktion, såväl som nivå av det patologiska personlighetsdraget Negativ Affektivitet, kan associParenting behaviours and family functioning are important aspects of family life that may be shaped by a variety of contextual factors, including self- and interpersonal functioning. Using a contemporary dimensional approach to personality pathology, this thesis investigates if the overall level of personality dysfunction, as well as the trait domain specifier of Negative Affectivity, are associat
The recast Energy Performance of Buildings Directive introduces binding Minimum Energy Performance Standards for existing non-residential buildings, requiring Member States to identify and renovate the worst-performing segments of their building stock. This study develops and applies an integrated framework for evaluating energy renovation measures in office buildings, addressing building category
Debt-for-nature swaps have been designed to address the polycrisis of high debt, climate change and biodiversity loss in developing countries by restructuring sovereign debt and directing resultant savings towards conservation. However, they are marred by multiple drawbacks including the violation of debtor nation sovereignty by international financial actors. This thesis attempts the first academ
This thesis explores the regulatory friction that surfaces when the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act) apply side by side to high‑risk AI systems. It homes in on three connected problems. First, there is a procedural overlap between the Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) and the Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment (FRIA). Second, a normati
Denna studie undersöker hur återkoppling används på gymnasiet i individuell instrument- och sångundervisning. Genom stimulated recall observerade vi två lektioner och genomförde sedan intervjuer med alla fyra informanter för att få både lärarnas och elevernas perspektiv. Sedan analyserade vi datan utefter en hermeneutisk ansats. Resultatet visade att olika typer av återkoppling förekom i undervisnThis study investigates how feedback is used in instrument and singing lessons in upper secondary school. We examined teachers' feedback and students' responses through stimulated recall where we observed two lessons and conducted interviews with all four informants to gain both teachers and students perspectives. Afterward we analyzed the data using a hermeneutic approach. The results of
Flygplatsbanor utsätts för stora belastningar från flygplan, vilket skapar ett behov av tillförlitliga metoder för att bedöma beläggningarnas bärighet. Traditionellt har ACN-PCN-systemet använts internationellt, men systemet har begränsningar eftersom det inte tar hänsyn till trafikvolym eller den kumulativa nedbrytningen av beläggningen över tid. För att åtgärda dessa brister introducerade ICAO AAirport pavements are subjected to severe loads from aircrafts, creating a need for reliable methods to evaluate pavement bearing capacity. Traditionally, the ACN-PCN-system has been used internationally, but the system has limitations since it does not consider traffic volume or cumulative pavement deterioration. To address these shortcomings ICAO introduced the ACR-PCR-system. The aim of this th
In recent years, the issue of algorithmic bias in systems has gradually drawn the European Union’s attention to the relationship between data protection and non-discrimination principles. To detect and mitigate bias in high-risk AI systems, developers often need to process special categories of personal data such as information relating to race, gender or health. However, Article 9 of the GDPR pro
