There is a need for a consolidated data source to retrieve data from the retail systems in the stores since those are locally installed per store. There are needs to get business management report information with data covering more than one store or country. To be able to have reports globally or covering more than one country/store, a centralised consolidated data source is needed. To be able to
Present day aid strategies and their effectiveness are subjected to fundamental reassessment. Major donors and international financial institutions are increasingly basing their aid and loans to the countries on the condition that recipient governments undertake reforms that ensure "good governance" of the allocated funds. Present study conducted in November and December 2007 in Zambia w
The purpose of this paper was to identify key challenges of equity and inclusion in participatory community-based watershed development management. Furthermore, my ambition was to generate findings that are relevant to research beyond the case of watershed development, i.e. community-based natural resource management (CBNRM)in general. On the basis of a histographic overview of the main developmen
Among the multidimensional effects that forced displacement has on population welfare, the economic ones may be measured in various ways: one of them is assessing the effect of being a forced migrant in the probability of accessing the labor market in the destination communities in Colombia. This is obtained through the estimation of a logit model which uses data from the “Survey in marginalized a
Popular science This study describes the development and implementation of a Photo Voltaic (PV)Roof Integration Analysis Tool integrated into a GIS system in order to be used in conducting research within alternative energy field. This study focuses on the Dokki district in Greater Cairo that was used as a case for developing the idea of a tool to assess the possibility of the roofs of existing bu
Exposure to vibrations from tools and machines used in construction work can induce damages to the human body. Oscillations around a fix point with a certain direction, frequency and magnitude describe the phenomenon vibrations. Their influence is generally expressed as acceleration [m/s2]. Furthermore, vibrations are separated in two categories; hand‐arm vibrations or whole body vibrations. Expos
Problem: Vilka är de drivande faktorerna till köbildning på klinikens avdelningar samt hur kan ökad kunskap om dessa faktorer på sikt skapa möjligheter för en effektivare kapacitetsplanering och en förbättrad servicenivå mot klinikens kunder? Syfte: Förbättra kapacitetsplaneringen för att på så sätt frigöra resurser och minska väntetiderna. Ta reda på vilka data som krävs för att på ett smidigt mProblem: Which are the driving factors creating queues at the different sections at the Department of Orthopedics and is it possible to use enhanced knowledge of these factors to create competitive advantage when conducting capacity planning? Will this also lead to an increased service level towards the patients? Purpose: Improve the capacity planning in order to free resources and reduce waiting
A large and growing body of literature has investigated the national parliaments and their involvement in the activities of the Union. However, the literature does not fully cover all the national parliaments of new Member States which joined the EU after the largest enlargement of the Union in 2004. As well, little is known about the national parliaments of Baltic Member States. This paper aims t
The purpose of this thesis is to produce an example of a solution to the problem with varying space requirements in divorced families living one-and two-family houses in Sweden. We have focused our work on solving this with a stand-alone complementary building which contains all the critical functions a dwelling should have. To facilitate and make the investment more realistic the building should
Global mega-events have proven to be costly projects for the countries that host them. Still, there is a huge demand for hosting these events. Recent research has found an increase in host countries’ exports due to the hosting of mega-events. This thesis investigates whether the hosting of the UEFA European Football Championship have had any long term effects regarding the exports of hosting count

Space structures are a leaf taken from Nature. Natural forms possess exceptional rigidity and use minimum materials to maximum structural advantage. To quote Makowski, "Natural forms act in the direction of minimum effort". Man has not been slow in copying these examples drawn from Nature. The main structural aim which drives the use of this construction system is to use the least materi
The main problem encountered in telecommunications industry is the incomprehensible pricing models and lock-‐in methods that operators of the market have established towards their customers. It is barely impossible for a consumer of mobile phone services to know how much the next bill from the supplier will cost.
Due to concerns from a wide variety of stakeholders social and environmental performance throughout the supply chain has become very important. Global corporations have a plethora of choices of how to structure and communicate their sustainability work in the supply chain. The objective of this research is to investigate how audit and monitoring frameworks attempt to increase transparency, improve
Rapid urbanization and economic growth in China are increasing the pressure on limited natural resources and policy options to deal with sustainability problems. Within this context, several policy instruments have been implemented to encourage the development of green building. However, no evaluations about related impacts and outcomes have been done until today. To fill this knowledge gap, this
Tillämpningen av Genèvekonventionen i flyktingmottagande länder har kritiserats av internationell doktrin inom mänskliga rättigheter för att utgå från en manlig norm och ignorera de kränkningar som kvinnor utsätts för då de utspelar sig i den privata sfären. Kvinnors förföljelse har inte samma orsaker och tar inte alltid samma form som mäns, varför de kan ha svårare att få gehör för sina skyddsbehThe determination of refugee status within the scope of the 1951 Geneva Convention on Refugee Status is traditionally carried out within a framework of male experiences. The claims of female asylum-seekers are often based on gender-related persecution and thus will not fit the profile of a convention refugee. As the gendered bias of the historical interpretation of the Geneva Convention is increas
One of the most important concepts in condensed matter physics is that of ``quasi particles''. The exciton is one such quasi particle. In semi-conductors, excitons are formed by the excitation of electrons from valence band to conduction band, which creates holes in the valence band. Because of the Coulomb force, the electron and the hole are attracted to each other and can form a ``hydrog
Den här kandidatuppsatsen handlar om graffitin och gatukonsten och syftet är att använda visuell antropologi för att undersöka hur dessa fenomen tar sig plats i samhället men också hur den omvandlar och konstruerar plats och arenor i det urbana. Mina huvudfrågor är; Vad innebär de visuella fenomen som brukar beskrivas som gatukonst och graffiti och hur kan dessa förstås och tolkas ur ett visuellt
