Eftersom människor tillbringar större delen av sin dagliga tid inomhus idag, ökar intresset och användningen av system för inomhusmiljöer, så kallade inomhuspositioneringssystem (IPS). De senaste åren har det därför tillkommit nya dataformat för inomhuskartläggning och kommersiella IPS och har ännu inte studerats ingående. Därför ger rapporten en översikt över huvuddelarna i IPS: dataformat för inAs people spend most of their daily time indoor today, the interest and usage of systems for indoor environments, called indoor positioning systems (IPSs), are increasing. The last couple of years, new data formats for indoor mapping and commercial IPSs have been released and they are not yet extensively studied. Hence, this thesis provides an overview of the main parts of IPSs: data formats for i

Monitoring crop phenology at parcel scale aligns with the concept of precision agriculture (PA) and can provide invaluable information to agronomic management systems. Satellite time series data are commonly deployed for detecting crop growth stages, while the recent advancements in remote sensing (RS) technologies such as the launch of Sentinel 2 (S2) are providing unprecedented opportunities for

Gängkriminaliteten har under det senaste decenniet ökat i Sverige och hårdare tag har efterfrågats. Tidöavtalet anger att det är av högsta vikt att bekämpa gängkriminaliteten i Sverige och i början på 2023 lämnade regeringen in en proposition till riksdagen som bland annat föreslog straffskärpningar för vissa straffskalor för brottstyper som är vanliga inom kriminella nätverk.

How does anti-tourism affect support for the EU? This question has gained a newly found relevance in recent years, as anti-tourism protests have appeared in many European cities with high levels of tourism. Despite this relevance, some elements of these protests have not received as much attention as they deserve. This thesis will aim to fill one of the gaps in the literature: how anti-tourism soc

Uppsatsen behandlar det juridiska läget avseende uppsägningar och avsked baserat på arbetstagarens brottslighet som grund. Enligt bestämmelserna i lagen om anställningsskydd (LAS) krävs det att arbetstagaren grovt försummar sina skyldigheter gentemot arbetsgivaren för att ett avsked ska vara rättfärdigat, 18 § LAS. När det gäller uppsägningar krävs, sedan 2022, att det föreligger sakliga skäl, 7 §The essay discusses the legal framework regarding terminations and dismissals based on the employee's criminal conduct as a ground for dismissal.

Skatteverket kom med ett ställningstagande 2019 beträffande marknadsföringsbidrag där de uttryckte att sådana bidrag inte enbart kan bedömas med stöd av den generella avdragsregeln i 16 kap. 1 § inkomstskattelagen, utan sådana bidrag ska även bedömas tillsammans med korrigeringsregeln. Uppsatsen har inriktat sig på att kritiskt belysa hur det förhåller sig i praktiken främst eftersom korrigeringsrThe Swedish Tax Agency came up with a position in 2019 regarding contributions where e.g. a parental company gives contribution to a subsidiary for e.g. marketing the parental company’s products, where they expressed that such contribution cannot be assessed solely with the support of the general deduction rule in ch. 16. Section 1 of the Income Tax Act, but such contributions must also be assesse

Fastighetsrätt och särskilt fastighetstransaktioner är något de flesta någon gång kommer i kontakt med. Lagen som reglerar området är främst jordabal-ken, där lagstiftningen avseende köparens möjlighet att göra fel gällande har varit relativt konstant de senaste femtio åren. Även om lagtexten inte genom-gått några större ändringar har emellertid domstolens tillämpning av den skilt sig åt och även Most people encounter property law through real estate transactions at some point of their lives. The law governing the field is the Swedish Land Code, where regulations regarding a buyer’s possibility of alleging errors have been relatively constant for the past fifty years. Although the text of the law has not been significantly changed, the court’s application has differed and even devi-ated fr

Practitioners primarily utilise nonparametric methods when estimating Value-at- Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) for computing capital requirements. However, various researchers assert that there are issues with those estimates, particularly amidst periods of market turmoil. Academia produces novel parametric methods to estimate extreme risk measures to address these deficiencies. Neverthele

Conventional agriculture and animal husbandry are leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions,environmental degradation, and biodiversity loss. Biocyclic Vegan Agriculture (BVA) is an approach that aims to address the concerns of modern agriculture and provide a sustainable and ethical alternative. Through the heuristic lens of the Multi-Level Perspective, where BVA serves as a potential niche, thi

Det har skett en förändring i attityden mot kriminalitet, i form av att oron har ökat och det skapats en tydlig vilja hos allmänheten att straffskärpningar ska användas för att bemöta problemet (Andersson & Nilsson, 2016). Sett till denna utveckling fanns ett intresse i att undersöka medias kritiska framställning av ungdomsbrottslighet. Syftet med denna uppsats var att genom en kvalitativ inn

The number of supply chain disruptions has increased over the last couple of years. The Covid-19 Pandemic, blockage of the Suez Canal and Russian invasion of Ukraine are some well-known examples of disruptions. Academia seems to have noticed the increasing disruptions and has explored proactive Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) as an approach to address this. Consulting firms also suggest compan

After Edward Snowden exposed the mass surveillance practices of the US intelligence services in 2013, personal data protection has taken a prominent position in the legal systems of various jurisdictions, including the European Union. The Safe Harbour agreement regulating the flows of personal data transfers between the US and the EU at that time was soon invalidated by a ruling of the European Co

In 1964, a theory was presented on how an invisible field is acting in nature, which causes mass to arise. The theory gives an explanation of how something can come from nothing and thus takes humanity one step closer to understanding how the universe works. Proving the theory was problematized by the fact that no experiments could be conducted since particle accelerators at the time weren't p

Due to a combination of economic challenges as well as uncertain policy conditions in the United States and the European Union, the development of (advanced) biorefineries has been slower than anticipated. This has hampered the transition to a more sustainable and less carbon-intensive economy, namely the bioeconomy. In this thesis, the technological innovation system (TIS) approach is combined wi

Förekomsten av juridiskt oskolade som ett inslag i den dömande verksamheten, är ett fenomen som existerar världen över. I Sverige har institutionen med s.k. nämndemän länge varit en del av rättssystemet. Dess rötter härstammar från det medeltida samhället, men systemet har under åren modifierats flertalet gånger och inflytandet på rättskipningen har varierat. Det huvudsakliga syftet och dess viktiThe presence of non-judicially educated in courts is a recurring phenomenon all over the world. In Sweden, the institution with lay judges (in Sweden; nämndemän) has a long history in the judiciary. It originates from the medieval era, but has over the years been modified several times and the institution’s influence over the administration of justice has varied over the years. However, the purpos

The rise of China and 1978-market reforms contrasts other post-socialist economies process of institutional and economic change. President Deng Xiaoping announced China’s continued commitment to socialism, yet his leadership is by some viewed to be the most radical social and economic transformation in contemporary Chinese history. One of the most extraordinary aspects of the Chinese reform period

The number of species classified as red-listed has increased by 11% between 2015 and 2020, with beetles and butterflies being especially affected. Among these are the vulnerable longhorned beetle (Stictoleptura scutellata) and the endangered false blister beetle (Ischnomera sanguinicollis). Forty percent of all known species in Sweden are dependent on hostplants, indicating the value in mapping po

Risk communication forms an integral part of disaster preparedness. In light of the increasing likelihood and intensity of forest fires, areas like Canton Bern in Switzerland, not usually known as a forest fire hotspot, have planned to strengthen their risk communication efforts to help increase overall preparedness and mitigation. Using the example of forest fires, this paper will shed light on t

Alla människor har rätt till hälsa enligt artikel 12 Konventionen om ekonomiska, sociala och kulturella rättigheter (ICESCR) och artikel 35 i EU:s rättighetsstadga (stadgan).

Klimatförändringarna och följderna av dessa har upprepade gånger utpekats som en av vår tids ödesfrågor. Fokus har fram tills relativt nyligen till övervägande del legat på hur klimatförändringar kan förhindras genom utsläppsbegränsningar och omställning till ett mer hållbart samhälle. I och med att kunskaperna ökat synes det dock idag stå klart att flertalet av klimatförändringarnas effekter redaClimate change and its consequences have long been viewed as one of the defining challenges of our time. The focus of research pertaining to climate change have until recently been overwhelmingly focused on the issue of mitigation while adaptation to climate change has received comparatively little attention. But, as the realization has dawned that many consequences of climate change are already b
