Rather than viewing online platforms as digital marketplaces, we analyze platforms as corporations and platform participants as a workforce. Online platforms perform very similar functions as any other corporation, but in different ways (applying terms and conditions as a legal framework and data, reviews, and algorithms for decentralized control) and mostly in different contexts (informal labor m
This chapter addresses the question of the outer limits of the European Union’s (EU) internal market and its significance in the Union's foreign policy, especially in relations with the EU’s neighbouring countries. The internal market forms the core of European integration and has gained increased importance in the external context. Through an analysis of the relevance of the internal market withi
Context The relationship of platelet function testing measurements with outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) initially managed medically without revascularization is unknown. Objective To characterize the differences and evaluate clinical outcomes associated with platelet reactivity among patients with ACS treated with clopidogrel or prasugrel. Design, Setting, and Patients Pat
En sammanfattning av uppsatsen på maximalt 8000 tecken. This thesis is mainly dealing with the mobility of the employees within the borders of the European Union. Legislative framework from the EU is favourable and the Commission has set as one of it goals to promote the migration. Globalisation trends and contemporary business concepts need people who are mobile on the other hand. But migration n
Syfte: Syftet med studien är att med en enkätundersökning kartlägga dagliga aktivitetsmönster, välbefinnande samt olika motivationsfaktorer hos arbetssökande unga vuxna i åldern 18–25 år. Syftet är också att kartlägga vilket stöd målgruppen upplever sig ha och vilket värde ett arbete skulle ha för målgruppen. Metod: Deltagarna som medverkade var enligt exklusionskriterierna: Sjukskrivna, ej aktivtPurpose: The purpose of the study is using a survey to map daily occupational patterns, well-being, and how different motivational factors are perceived and experienced in the target group able-bodied young adults age 18–25. The purpose is also to map the support the target group have, and what values a job would have for the target group. Method The participants where picked with the exclusion cr
The purpose of this study was to explore, from a Lean perspective, the possibilities to improve IKEA DC Älmhult's operational efficiency in the processes of receiving and shipping. Through Process activity mapping, the current practices for shipping and receiving operations were described and analyzed in detail. Waste, primarily in the form of transport, motion and waiting, was identified and
Antibodies have proven its usefulness in a variety of technologies, including Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry and Antibody Microarrays. The latter, which has been applied in e.g. biomarker discovery, disease monitoring, prognostics and protein expression profiling, has become a workhorse in affinity proteomics. By recombinantly expressing scFv antibody fragments in E. coli, a high-throughput
The thesis aims at understanding, from a world-system analytical perspective, the economic and social structures behind the Swedish territorial expansion in the 17th century, given the economic backwardness of the country in a Western European comparison. Through a study of the works of Eli F. Heckscher and Immanuel Wallerstein among others, the thesis investigates the internal dynamics of the Swe
When it comes to innovation, economic growth, affluence and international attractiveness, there are currently few places in the world that can compare with the San Francisco Bay Area. However, new megatrends such as Sustainability, can challenge its attractiveness. Scholars talk about the “Nordic approach”.In the geographical area of Southern Scandinavia, ‘The Strait Area’, the focus is on Sustai
År 1960 upptäcktes Cesium-137-aktivitet från atmosfäriska kärnvapenprovvid mätningar på lågaktivitets laboratoriet iLund. Denna händelse initierade mätningar av den svenska samiska befolkningen och iprodukter från ren som betar i de svenska fjällen. En semi-bärbarhelkropps detektor konstruerades med en detektionsgräns för 137Cs som var tillräckligt bra för att mäta människor med högakroppskoncentrIn 1960 Caesium-137 activity from atmospheric nuclear weapons test was dis-covered in measurements at the whole body gamma-ray counting laboratory inLund. This event initiated measurements of the Swedish Sami population, and inproducts from reindeer that bite lichens in the Swedish mountains. A semi-portable whole-body counter designed with a detection limit for 137 Cs at high radiation background
Machine learning models are used to help scientists analyze large amounts of data across all fields of science. These models become better with more data and larger models mainly through supervised learning. Both supervised learning and model validation benefit from annotated datasets where the annotations are of high quality. A key challenge is to annotate the amount of data that is needed to tra
Relying on three new indicators of the information capacity of states, this paper provides new evidence on the ability of states to collect and process information about the territories and populations that they govern. The three indicators are (a) the availability of a reliable census, (b) the establishment of a permanent government agency tasked with processing statistical information about the
BACKGROUND: In transitioning from the Millennium Development Goal to the Sustainable Development Goal era, it is imperative to comprehensively assess progress toward reducing maternal mortality to identify areas of success, remaining challenges, and frame policy discussions. We aimed to quantify maternal mortality throughout the world by underlying cause and age from 1990 to 2015.METHODS: We estim
