While there have been numerous research papers defining and discussing high technology startup success, there is a lack of unity what the recipe for success is. Due to lack of market orientation being one of the most common reasons for startup failure, combined with the essentiality of having a strong technology base in a high technology environment, there is an interest to study their intersectio

To encounter the ambiguity of the contemporary understanding of neighborhood, we must fundamentally view the concept from a broad historical and global perspective. A neighborhood should be understood as an organism; this whole organism is alive, constantly changing, and its structure is fluid. The way people live and create community has changed with all the social and technological changes in th

Detta examensarbete handlar om Building Information Modelling, även förkortat BIM, i järnvägsbranschen. BIM är ett relativt nytt arbetssätt som börjar implementeras allt mer men samtidigt används traditionell projektering. Med bakgrund av detta ämnar detta examensarbete undersöka i vilka uppdrag som det är mest lönsamt att implementera BIM. Frågeställningarna som togs fram var: ● Vilken ekonomisk This thesis deals with the subject Building Information Modelling (BIM), in the railway industry. BIM is a relatively new way of working that is beginning to be implemented more and more at the same time as traditional design is used. This study aims to investigate in which projects it is most profitable to implement BIM. The aim of this thesis to study is the following questions: ● What are the f

Technical advancements and changes to the environment imply that industries may experience technology shifts. During those times, mature manufacturing companies are vulnerable, and it is of outmost importance they can respond to the new circumstances. To do so, mature manufacturing companies need to know which consequences they will experience to their offer, business model, resources and capabili

Bygg- och fastighetssektorn står för stora utsläpp av växthusgaser från byggnadsmaterial- och energianvändning. Byggbranschen står idag för ca en femtedel av Sveriges totala koldioxidutsläpp. Ett område med stor potential är byggnadsmaterial där IsoTimber är ett av företagen som driver utvecklingen framåt. IsoTimber är en relativt ny aktör inom byggsektorn som tillverkar prefabricerade väggar i tr

Birds endure ecological constraints during winter in temperate regions where critical resources vary significantly between urban and rural sites, influencing survival rate. Warmer temperatures and artificial food sources have led to an increase in urban avian winter abundance whereas birds in colder, rural ecosystems are more reliant on scarce natural food sources but subject to less human disturb

Digitaliseringen i den obligatoriska skolan och samhället är ett faktum. Regeringen beslutade 2017 om en digitaliseringsstrategi för Sverige och prioriterade där skolväsendet som ett av nyckelområdena. Däremot omfattas kulturskolan inte av digitaliserings-strategin, och avsaknaden av styrdokument inom kulturskolan gör att undervisningen kan skilja sig åt beroende på var i landet undervisningen ske

En innovationsprocess ska ta en idé hela vägen från forskning till marknaden. Detta är dock en lång process i vilken många barriärer kan uppstå. För det här examensarbetet har en fältstudie gjorts på ett stort svenskt industriföretag, med syftet att undersöka deras materialinnovationsprocess. De har upplevt att de möter utmaningar när resultaten av en innovation ska överföras från Forskning och U

In this thesis we propose a new form of Variational Autoencoder called the Conditional Latent Space Variational Autoencoder or CL-VAE. By conditioning on a known label in a dataset we can decide what points are being mapped to what prior distribution. This makes the latent space more understandable and separates the classes further. It also subverts the tug-of-war effect between reconstruction los

Financial crises are a major issue in modern history. In a great deal of the financial crises there is a banking crisis involved. To regulate and supervise banks the Basel framework was created. With the framework, the aim is to enhance financial stability and to minimize the effect from a potential financial crisis. This paper aims to investigate if banks have changed their behavior, in terms of

Mjölk. Vad ser du framför dig när du läser ordet mjölk? Är det ett glas mjölk till skollunchen som barn, öppna gröna fält med betande kor eller kanske en jordgubbstårta på ett födelsedagskalas? Vilken bild du än får i huvudet så är mjölk för många en naturlig del av uppväxten med minnen som går så långt bak i tiden man kan minnas. Det är först på senare tid som mjölkkonsumtionen har börjat ifrågas

The world is in transition. Europe is a Europe of transition. And so is the city; an incomplete, ever-changing and complex construct. While life itself is built upon the concept of change, organic order and vitality, society is currently finding itself struggling not to fall behind time. The Industrial Revolution has led to greater productivity and larger economic turnovers. Developments picked

Background: Prostate cancer screening depends on a careful balance of benefits, in terms of reduced prostate cancer mortality, and harms, in terms of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. We aimed to estimate the effect on overdiagnosis of restricting prostate specific antigen (PSA) testing by age and baseline PSA. Methods: Estimates of the effects of age on overdiagnosis were based on population based

Objective: To describe dietary protein intakes and their food sources among 27 redefined centres in 10 countries participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Methods: Between 1995 and 2000, 36 034 persons, aged between 35 and 74 years, were administered a standardized 24-h dietary recall (24-HDR) using a computerized interview software programme (EPIC-S

This paper analyses distributional effects of revenue-neutral tax reforms aimed at improving dietary quality and encouraging healthier grain consumption. Using data on household grain purchases, we analyse both the impact on dietary quality and the tax incidence among income groups of VAT reforms and excise duty reforms. The VAT reforms include subsidies of healthy products (products labelled with

Objective: To analyse if predictors of radiographic progression differ between patients treated with or without prednisolone in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Radiographs of hands and feet were assessed using the modified Sharp/van der Heijde score and radiographic progression was defined as an increase in the total Sharp score above 5.8 (the smallest detectable change). Design: Prospective, ran

Objectives. To investigate the association between maternal characteristics and fetal growth during the third trimester of pregnancy. Methods. Using a population-based perinatal register, 48,809 term singleton pregnancies were identified for which a routine ultrasound examination in the third trimester was performed between 1995 and 2009. Fetal and infant weight, respectively, were expressed as ge
