The aim of this study is to examine the political and cultural situation of the Russian speaking minority, who remained in the Baltic states after the fall of the Soviet Union. This essay is based on previous research and theories regardning the Diaspora politics in order to understand the underlying reasons for the political dissatifaction of the Diaspora. The research findings show deficiencies

Under de senaste femtio åren har de europeiska kapitalmarknaderna blivit allt mer integrerade. För att garantera allmänhetens förtroende, för att förhindra framtida finanskriser och för att nå den ekonomiska effektiviteten på marknaden, är det viktigt att det finns harmoniserade förbud mot marknadsmissbruk. En vanlig form av marknadsmissbruk är handel med insiderinformation, som kan leda till stoDuring the last fifty years, the European capital markets have become increasingly integrated. In order to ensure public confidence, to prevent future financial crises and to reach economic efficiency on the market, it is of importance that there are harmonised prohibitions against market abuse. A common form of market abuse on the European market is trading with inside information, which can lea

Syfte: Syftet med vår studie är att belysa ifall genus har någon påverkan på revisorers bedömningar av väsentlighet för att i så fall skapa en medvetenhet om hur eventuella skillnader kan påverka bedömningen. Teoretiska perspektiv: Socialiseringsteori med genusfokus. De flesta mönster i kvinnligt och manligt beteende beror på socialisering snarare än de biologiska skillnaderna. Detta ligger delvisPurpose: The aim of our study is to elucidate whether gender has any effect on the auditor’s assessment of materiality in order to create an awareness on how any differences might affect the assessment. Theoretical perspectives: socialization theory with gender focus (gender differences depend more on social factors than biological) which partly explains the theory of women being more risk-averse

Sammanfattning Syftet med studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan medarbetarskap och arbetstillfredsställelse. Forskning har visat att arbetstillfredsställelse har gynnsamma effekter för både organisation och individ samt att det finns ett samband mellan arbetstillfredsställelse och olika faktorer som ingår i medarbetarskap. Till författarnas kännedom har inte någon tidigare studie undersökt saAbstract The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between employeeship and job satisfaction. Research has shown that job satisfaction has favorable effects for both the organization and the individual. It has also shown that job satisfaction and variables seen as part of employeeship correlate. However, to the knowledge of the authors no previous study has been performed to examin

We study the dynamic admission control for a finite shared buffer with support of multiclass traffic under Markovian assumptions. The problem is often referred to as buffer sharing in the literature. From the linear programming (LP) formulation of the continuous-time Markov decision process (MDP), we construct a hierarchy of increasingly stronger LP relaxations where the hierarchy levels equal the

Quantum dots are nanoscopic systems, where carriers are confined in all three spatial directions. Such nanoscopic systems are suitable for fundamental studies of quantum mechanics and are candidates for applications such as quantum information processing. It was also proposed that linear arrangements of quantum dots could be used as quantum cascade laser. In this work we study the impact of electr

The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of nanofiltration (NF) and ozonation for indirect potable reuse in terms of pharmaceutical residuals. To simultaneously obtain a reasonable retentate volume for further treatment, the tests were performed at a high volume reduction factor (VRF) of 60. The feed to the pilot plant was the effluent from a BNR plant with a final process step of

Recently, the emergence of Kinect systems has demonstrated the benefits of predicting an intermediate body part labeling for 3D human pose estimation, in conjunction with RGB-D imagery. The availability of depth information plays a critical role, so an important question is whether a similar representation can be developed with sufficient robustness in order to estimate 3D pose from RGB images. Th

This report is made in order to evaluate the safety, in case of a fire, of personnel and patients in the surgical facilities at Helsingborg General Hospital. The problem that arises in this report is regarding the evacuation of patients that are undergoing surgery. This is a problem since it can take up to 60 minutes to finish a surgery and make a patient ready for evacuation. To determine the fir

This paper deals with how the emerging strand of theorizing – systems of innovation – interprets the determinants of the rate and direction of the innovation process and its implications for policy measures therein. The immense impact technical change has had on economic growth in the past roughly 200 years has demanded an overdue attention since the second half of the twentieth century.And now a

ERP systems have become vital strategic tools in today’s competitive business environment. Achieving successful results from IT initiatives has driven most companies to implement ERP systems in order to achieve strategic alignment between the company’s strategic goals and their business objectives. ERP system implementation involves huge costs, effort, time and resources which if not managed may l

In the past decades, the laser technology market for industrial material processing has grown by double digits. Nowadays, material processing by high power laser represents the almost irreplaceable solution for many needs. The company SEI S.p.A., based in Curno, Italy, requested a solid-state laser suitable for fast marking application. A Nd:YVO4 crystal in end-pumped configuration was chosen in o

Land acquisitions have increased significantly over the last decade and claims have been made that these actions are both neo-colonial and wrong. Others claim that there are benefits to be gained for all parties, directly and indirectly involved. When land is being sold or leased from poor farmers to rich corporations what are the potentials and what are the limitations? Are livelihoods, displacem

During the 90s, the Swedish government implemented a series of neoliberal housing policies in search of a wayout for the economic crisis, including demolition of the ministry of housing, deregulations and disincentivising housing construction, which has created decline in housing production and privatisation of municipal housing companies. The neoliberal policy reform was attributed to the shortag

Vitrified bonded aluminum oxide grinding wheels are widespread in use for many applications in grinding, such as internal plunge grinding. However, there are challenges when it comes to the measurement, analysis and (geometric) modeling of their topography, which is crucial to understand and model the influence of the topography on the process behavior. Methodological advances allow for the detail

Traditional publishers of journalistic material have found a new channel through which they can reach the readers namely the Internet. The material is often the same in the online version as in the paper based version, but not enough thought has been paid to how the different media influence the way of reading. The Internet as medium imposes new criteria as to how the content should be published.

As IT service departments in organisations are becoming more complex and customised, the indirect costs are increasing in relation to the total costs. The difficulty of fully estimating and identifying the spread of the cost in the IT service department is increasing. As a result, firms tend to budget the business unit as a total cost rather than as a spread of defined costs. In order to deal with

This is a study on the young client's encounter 1 with the welfare system which main goal is the transition to work or study. The focus is on the clients experiences of this encounters and if they consider social allowance as a mean of lasting support. The method of data collection has been interviewing five people, two females and three males, all about the age of 20. All five had for some ti
