The aim of the paper is to account for the characteristics of the conflicts that arise, by trying to grasp how

I detta examensarbete undersöks hur Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons kan användas för att implementera ett inomhuspositioneringssystem. För att göra detta utvecklades en prototyp som består av en Android-applikation och en DynamoDB-databas. Att använda sig av trilateration för positionering har redan testats och utvärderats ett flertal gånger, därför fokuserar detta arbete istället på en alterna

The use of smartphones has increased dramatically over the last decade. However, very few studies have been made on the impact of smartphones on the relationship and interaction between parent and child. In this qualitative study, I interviewed five day-care teachers and two social workers in open day-care centres, on their experiences of parents’ usage of smartphones and its impact on the childre

The study contains a definition of the conception of self-knowledge based on our result from the study, which briefly explains as the ability to know yourself, both merits and limitations. The analysis

In the present thesis were studied oat based real fruit puree products. The aim was to create a new synbiotic beverage by combining the health benefits of the probiotic bacterial strain with the prebiotic ones derived from the β-glucans in oats. This new synbiotic oat-based real fruit puree beverage called Nordic Berries Skaka Smaka consisted of 48% whole-grain oat substrate and 52% Nordic berries

The aim of this study was to investigate how staff working at treatment homes for addicts, reason about the situation of their clients as well as the clients´ needs and the treatment itself. I have conducted four interviews with staff working at different treatment homes for addicted men and women. The staff were asked to give their oppinions on a vignette and the result shows that there is a shar

Plaster som används för dagligt bruk består till stor del av fossila ämnen. Med ökad efterfrågan och produktion för varje år, är en hållbar utveckling för plaster en växande utmaning. Ett av de stora problemen är förbrukningen av de icke förnyelsebara fossila källorna, vilket medför att förr eller senare behövs alternativ till de konventionella plasterna. Med detta problem i åtanke, så fokuserar dPlastics for everyday use are made from fossile resources. With the demand for plastics increasing every year, a sustainable development for plastic products is a growing challenge. A major issue is the depletion of the non-renewable fossile resources, which means that sooner or later alternatives to the conventional plastics are needed. With this problem in mind, this work focuses on the developm

One of the biggest threats against reindeer herding and Sami culture is the exploitation of natural resources in Sápmi, Sami land (Samiskt informationscentrum a). Mines require large areas of land, where the reindeer usually feed. With a post-colonial approach, I, in this essay analyse the discourses behind the law that regulates mines and mineral extraction. With a critical discourse analysis of

In recent years, digitalization influenced various industries, including retail banks. It can be observed that retail banks face new challenges such as changing customer demands and expectations. At the same time, the industry is disrupted by new competitors, such as Financial Technology companies and large technology enterprises. The ongoing low-interest environment risks the profitability of ban

This master thesis examines disabled residents’ roles as citizens in a place branding process within the political framework of a place. This is in line with the resident approach in a political context within the research field of place branding. My contribution to the resident approach is a case study in the municipality of Borås, where I study the organized work of accessibility between citizen

The present customer based and data driven world of business, together with the evolving social and technological trends continue to drive product complexity and product variety to a new height, one that is characterized by product customization. In the product realization pro-cess, the assembly floor remains the most vital part of the manufacturing process; to cope with the rigorous demands of pr

In this thesis, translation of classic Japanese poetry into Danish will be examined in the form of analysing translations of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu. Difficulties will be surveyed, and ways of handling them will be suggested. Furthermore, differences between the Danish translations and those of English and Swedish translations will be noted. Relevant translation methods will be presented, as well

Predicting the development of distant metastasis for breast cancer patients is of high importance for both the patient and the medical staff. The current best method for prediction is the use of handcrafted histopatological features. The aim with this study is to explore how well Additive Multiple Labelling Cytochemistry (AMLC) stained core biopsy images can predict the development of distant meta

Giftigt lakvatten skadar småkryp Vattnet är turkos-färgat och innehåller giftigt höga halter av metaller, så småningom fälls metallerna ut och bildar en orange sörja som lägger sig som en kvävande filt över allt i vattnet. Livet är inte lätt för vattenlevande småkryp i Fredriksdalsviken. En rejäl översvämning år 2007 i Kristianstad fick missfärgat vatten att välla ut över strandängarna i naturresThe leaching of metals caused by drainage of peatland soils was, in Scania, brought to attention after a flood in Kristianstad 2007. The flood caused large areas of wet meadows to be covered in iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al) contaminated water and one of the affected areas was Fredriksdalsviken, a nature reserve important as a breeding area for birds. The negative effects of these metals on macroinve

Do European nightjars migrate via Öland in autumn? Bird migration is a common phenomenon of the natural world with at least 4,000 species of birds being regular migrants. Many of those species have to cover long distances from breeding grounds in the northern hemisphere to wintering grounds in the tropics. They often face ecological barriers e.g. deserts or oceans with no food supply. Therefore i

I present here population trends of 52 bird species with coastal- breeding populations for the period 1990 to 2016. The trends are based on data collated from 51 surveillance programmes on breeding birds, which together covered most of the Swedish coastline. I related the trends to foraging guild, the species' distribution, and the species' climatic envelope. I also compared trends inside

The purpose of this thesis is to differentiate between the usage of three very similar Japanese conditionals: nara, nonara, and nodattara. A questionnaire study to find connections between the choice of conditionals depending on the surrounding expressions was conducted to establish potential rules and patterns of usage. The research found that short sentences, negative protases, and conditionall

This paper examines the impact of the ASEAN-Japan Comprehensive Economic Partnership (AJCEP) on import by studying both the trade creation and trade diversion effect. The standard gravity model is augmented and tested on a sample of 36 countries based on aggregated data from 2000 to 2015. To obtain consistent and efficient estimation results, unobserved multilateral resistance terms will be addres
