Denna uppsats vid namn Att konsumera bekräftelse – Tinder och dejting i konsumtionssamhället har författats av Amanda Hjärtmyr vid institutionen för kommunikation och medier på Lunds Universitet. Uppsatsen har analyserat och problematiserat Tinder som en nytt dejtingmedium och till vilka anledningar användarna på applikationen använder den. Detta mynnade ut i att användarna främst söker efter bekr
The increasing complexity of software applications and architectures in Internet services challenge the reasoning of operators tasked with diagnosing and resolving outages and degradations as they arise. Although a growing body of literature focuses on how failures can be prevented through more robust and fault-tolerant design of these systems, a dearth of research explores the cognitive challenge
The existence of systems has been essential in bringing order and providing benefits and security for people throughout the course of history. However there are cases wherein people have difficulties in adopting or conforming to systems. The aim of this study is to understand how systems that intend to be open encounter the paradox of excluding people in the process. The Public Transportation Age
Abstract: Since the implementation of the European community in the 1950’s support for the integration process was founded on the necessity of establishing an ever-closer Union among the citizens of Europe. There was an overall belief that support for a European community would increase over time as a result of the opportunities it created and the functional pressures that followed. The public su
With a steady development of technology, the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) has become more and more popular since the computation time has gone down. With this increase, a need for determining which MPC algorithm is good for solving a certain type of MPC problem has occurred which would facilitate the choice of algorithm and also could increase the performance. One of the determining aspec
Barn som tar del av socialtjänstens heldygnsinsatser, exempelvis genom att vara placerade i familjehem, har ofta traumatiska erfarenheter och hög prevalens av psykisk ohälsa. Många upplever svårigheter inom utbildning, arbetsliv och socialt liv upp i vuxen ålder, men tidiga insatser verkar kunna bryta denna negativa spiral. Dock saknas tillräckligt med evidens för att säkerställa effekten av de inChildren in the social services' out-of-home care, for example, those living in family homes, often have traumatic experiences and a high prevalence of mental illness. Many have difficulties in education, work and social life into adulthood, but early intervention can potentially break the negative spiral. However, there is a lack of evidence of potential effects of the interventions offered.
The primary purpose of this paper is to further build on research related to capability development in order to explore hindrances and benefits of internal capability development and external partnerships as ways to improve performance. The beverage industry is used as the focus context since the companies in this industry are increasingly responding to external trends and looking for ways to deve
Min utgångspunkt har varit de senaste årens trendbrott i boendepreferenser, där storstäderna inte växer i samma takt som tidigare. Allt fler söker sig till platser med stort utbud av småhus, närhet till natur, goda förbindelser till arbete och rimligare kvadratmeterpriser. Till följd av detta har flera mindre kommuner och orter fått en skjuts i befolkningstillväxt. En av dessa kommuner är min egOver the last years the bigger cities in Sweden haven’t grown at the same speed as before. There has been a rising trend of people choosing to live outside of the big cities as they tend to look for areas with proximity to nature, large selection of small houses, good connections to work and more reasonable square meter prices. As a result, several smaller municipalities and towns have received a
Hur ser framtidens hållbara förpackning ut och vad är den tillverkad av? För att besvara denna fråga blir mikromekanisk karakterisering av material en viktig parameter att utforska och förstå. I synnerhet är mikromekaniken hos tunna pappersmaterial intressant då materialet har användningspotential i flera förpackningsapplikationer. Detta examensarbete fokuserar på att studera mikromekaniska beteeWhat does the future sustainable package look like, and what is it made of? To answer this question, the micromechanical characterization of materials becomes an important parameter to explore and understand. In particular, the micromechanical behavior of thin paper materials is of interest due to its potential in sustainable packaging applications. This master's thesis focuses on investigati
Due to labor shortages and an aging workforce, businesses are having difficulty hiring and maintaining talented staff. Employer branding is an important factor in attracting and keeping top employees. However, current research on job seekers' expectations and fulfillment is lacking. This study explores job seekers' expectations and how they align with job and organizational culture in real
The social structure has led us to only see women as the sex we should protect in the society. A general assumption is that men are aggressive and more sexually drift than women, which has made him insignificant in the context of sexual violence. Feminist studies on male rape have therefore become an academic undertheorized issue where other problem formulations and aspects instead have been highl
In the so called ‘war against terrorism’ the international humanitarian law was declared as non-applicable to ‘unlawful combatants’ by the Bush administration. The prisoners defined as such would therefore be given a different set of rights than would those who under the third Geneva Convention qualified as ‘prisoners of war’. By passing new national legislation, the president’s administration and

Sustainability Science (SS) has, as of today, no explicit agreement on which philosophy of science should be used to guide its research. Though SS is a broad and often diffuse concept, there are certain guiding principles which are generally agreed on. Based on these principles, it has been seen if Critical Realism (CR) could be an appropriate meta-theory for SS. The approach used is therefore pri
3D-skrivaren är ett tekniskt hjälpmedel som, med stöd av en digital 3D-bild, skriver ut fysiska föremål. De tekniska möjligheterna, både material- och formmässigt, tros inte ha några gränser. Marknaden som tidigare uteslutande riktats till företag, öppnas nu även för konsumenter. 3D-skrivarens intåg har ännu inte resulterat i några förändringar av gällande rätt, men frågan kommer dock, enligt sakk3D printing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The possibilities with the technology are according to today's science unlimited. Just a few year’s ago the 3D market exclusively addressed production companies, but are now also opening for consumers. The arrival of the 3D printer has not yet resulted in any changes to the existing law, but the question wi
I started playing guitar when I was 16 years old, and I learned to play on my own. I still play the guitar but I have a long way to go before I am fully learned. When the video-game Guitar Hero hit the shelves, I and my friends were fast to pick it up. We spent hours and hours with this game, and eventually we got really skilled at this game. But it was just that. A game. What if there was a way
This study is about ssu, a potential norm breaking honorific which reportedly can express intimacy and deference concurrently. While expressing intimacy and deference concurrently is incompatible with Brown and Levinson’s (1978 as cited in Hasegawa, 2015) politeness theory, Hasegawa (2015) provides a modification of their theory that allows for it. Yet, an honorific in hyōjungo ‘standard Japanese’
Frågan om bevarande av och långsiktigt utnyttjande av miljön framstår som en av vår tids viktigaste frågor. Bland tillgängliga åtgärder på miljöområdet finns kriminalisering: ett styrmedel med kraftfull klang men med begränsad räckvidd och nytta och framför allt en åtgärd som endast bör användas som sista utväg i enlighet med principen om ultima ratio. Sålunda anses varje straffbeläggande genereEnvironmental sustainability is one of the most important issues of our time and environmental harm can be dealt with in numerous ways. One strategy is to use criminal prohibitions. Fighting environmental crime has a powerful ring to it, but the reach of the criminal law is limited and its usefulness often highly (and sadly) overestimated. Such factors, combined with the adverse effects typically
