An increasing amount of people living under the control of armed groups begged the question on the human rights obligations by armed groups in situation of protracted armed conflict. Traditionally, international human rights treaties only impose obligations on states. This raises concerns about the protection vacuum as well as accountability of the armed groups. A new phenomenon also emerged where

We are emerging into the IoT (Internet of Things) era as the IoT market is quickly increasing, giving us connected devices everywhere, from personal accessories to smart homes and even whole city infrastructures. The manufacturing companies need to stay competitive in this rapidly evolving market, so they need to minimize the price and optimize the Time to Market (TTM). When new versions of a prod

With the deadline of the 2015 Millenium Development Goals approaching fast, developmental institutions are eager to identify which programs have made an impact and worth continuing as well as which have failed. There have been a number of programs conducted and evaluated in the last decade and now is the time to investigate where they can be improved and restructured. Conditional cash transfers (C

There are many applications of microprocessors in embedded applications, where power efficiency becomes a critical requirement, e.g. wearable or mobile devices in healthcare, space instrumentation and handheld devices. One of the methods of achieving low power operation is by simplifying the device architecture. RISC/CISC processors consume considerable power because of their complexity, which is

Syftet med den här studien är att studera tillväxten under perioden 1992 fram till våren 2016 för andra generationens granskog efter tidigare genomförd kalkning. Skogen och skogsproduktionen är och har länge varit en stor och viktig del i Sveriges utveckling och ekonomi. Att studera tillväxten av skog är därför av stort intresse för många aktörer inom svenska skogsindustrin. I slutet av 1960-taletThis study aims to investigate the growth of a spruce forest, where the soil has been treated with lime before planting. The study period reaches from 1992, when the spruces were planted until 2016. In Sweden, the forest industry plays an important role of the country´s development and economic conditions. A study of forest growth is therefore of large interest for many actors within the Swedish f

Traditional risk assessment frameworks have been focused primarily on the factors of likelihood and impact, utilizing either a numerical (e.g. 1 to 5) or qualitative (e.g.low,medium, high) rating scale, resulting in the traditional two dimensional framework. The challenge of this model is that the focus is too narrow to eectively assess constantly changing risk environments and fails to dierentiat

This bachelor thesis is based on interviews with six young feminists within the Church of Sweden, and aims to discuss how a combination of feminism and Christian faith is made possible. I am investigating if these women experience personal inner conflicts between feminist values and a Christian faith and then how these women think of and manage these conflicts, and also if they have experiences ba

Not many people know that there exists a custody center for illegal immigrants in Sweden. Here immigrants live unwillingly until they get sent home to their country. They get put in custody because they haven’t got the right to stay in the country and the state is afraid they will go “under ground”. The staff consists of different types of people working every day with these immigrants. There work

Through this degree project, we have come up with effective methods in the computer program ArchiCAD that architects use during project planning for buildings. The purpose of the degree project was to examine how architects and software developers use ArchiCAD effectively, in the building process so that also information transfer to other actors works. The theory of the degree project deals with t

This essay compares the two Swedish municipalities Landskrona and Värnamo, in order to understand the difference in achieved integration on the labor market. By using Mill’s method of disagreement, and conducting interviews with persons with key positions in the integration process, based on theories of integration, the essay reaches the conclusion that authorities can be the difference between su

I detta examensarbete för kandidatexamen i Strategisk kommunikation har vi gjort en studie med syftet att öka kunskapen inom och förståelsen för ämnet formaanpassning, genom att ta reda på hur svenska produktionsbolag och kanaler arbetat strategisk med anpassning av tv-format samt vilka faktorer som leder till att en formatanpassning genomförs. För att nå vårt syfte har vi undersökt hur de tre proIn this thesis for the bachelor’s degree in Strategic communication we conducted a study with the objective to gain knowledge in the area of format adaptation by conveying how Swedish production companies and TV-channels work strategically with television format adaptation. Our intention has been to comprehend the variables that lead to the execution of a format adaptation. To reach a conclusion w

The transport of heat from hot to cold mediums is called heat transfer. It can be used for either heating or cooling machines, electronics food, etc. in industry. Examples are the cooling of a car engine or recovering heat from a power plant turbine. In these types of applications, it is practical to use fluids of high heat capacity as mediums for transferring heat as this means they that they are

Today there is more people living in urban areas than in rural; this has changed the structure of the cities and resulted in a faster growing slum in the developing world, especially in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA). The purpose of this study is to first give a broad overview of slum characters and motivations, and analyze the fact that slum formation is wider in developing countries than in industrial

Up to recently mobile gamma spectrometry has mostly been performed with NaI(Tl)-based detector systems. However lately the interest of using HPGe(High Purity Germanium)-based systems have increased and one has realised that the excellent energy resolution of HPGe-detectors, in combination with the possibility to manufacture larger crystals than before, is an advantage not only when performing in s

This thesis investigates how authoritarian leaders justify the restructuring of state institutions and the dismissal of bureaucratic officials, with a focus on the dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) under President Trump's second administration. By applying a critical discourse analysis of two policy documents: an executive order and a memorandum, the study ex
