This thesis investigates visual attention during decision-making in natural environments in four different studies. The first study demonstrated that decisions in the supermarket were suboptimal and this did not seem to relate to the amount of products attended to or the amount of time spent on each product. Consumers also failed to look at a subsection of products that better suited their prefe
Horizon Europe has identified climate-neutral and smart cities as one of its mission areas. In Sweden, the national innovation programme Viable Cities has set its sights on realising climate neutrality in cities by 2030. In both cases, a mission-oriented approach focused on citizens as drivers of climate action represents a pathway to success. However, citizen involvement has been presented as an
The aim of this thesis is to describe and explain how meal-box, as a digital device designed to assist households in carrying out eating practices, reconfigure household practices and enable specific behavioural activities, including sustainability. Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L
Offentlig upphandling är ett stort rättsområde som spelar en viktig roll i samhället. Offentlig upphandling omsätter miljardbelopp årligen och sysselsätter otroligt många människor. Den svenska lagstiftningen kring offentlig upphandling utgår ifrån den unionsrätt som Sverige blev en del av i samband med inträdet i EU i början av 1990-talet. Offentlig upphandling regleras på EU-nivå av en katalog aPublic procurement is a large area of law that plays an important part in todays society. Public procurement turns over billions of Swedish kronor annually and employs lots of people. The Swedish legislation on public procurement derives from the union law that Sweden became a part of in connection with joining the European Union in the beginning of the 1990’s.

In the Swedish contemporary media landscape, marked by limited financial resources, many local newspapers are searching for sustainable business models. This reality brings an unprecedented challenge: finding a balance between the market-driven demands of economic efficiency and audience expectations of trustworthy local news.

Sverige var först i världen med att kriminalisera köpare men inte säljare av sexuella tjänster 1999. På andra sidan sundet pågick samtidigt en debatt som i mångt och mycket påminde om den svenska. Utfallet blev dock det motsatta och samma år tog Danmark bort de sista resterna av den lagstiftning som kriminaliserat prostitution. Uppsatsen syftar till att jämföra och utvärdera gällande rätt i Danmar

In this thesis model predictive control (MPC) is used to dynamically optimize a portfolio where the data is sampled every 5 minutes. Previous research has shown how MPC optimization applied to daily sampled financial data can generate a portfolio that exceeds the value of standard portfolio strategies such as Strategic asset allocation. MPC has been found to have a computational advantage when ret
Today's network cameras are constantly evolving, giving us higher resolution and higher quality video streams which demands higher capacity data links. In Pan, Tilt, Zoom (rotating) cameras the Slip Ring acts as the single communication link between the stationary and rotating parts of the camera and at the same time enables unrestricted rotation. It is therefore a key component within the cam
Chemical Management Services (CMS), an application of Product Service Systems (PSS) in the chemical sector, attempts to optimise chemical consumption patterns. CMS works by changing the fundamental relationship between chemical suppliers and chemical customers and providing incentives to both to reduce the quantity of chemicals used. CMS is gaining increasing popularity as a tool for cost savings

All in all, the amount of work done in the previous briefs have influenced the final result. The final result being an automatic retro-looking watch offered in five different colours as a way to cateer to a multitude of personalities wh
This study examines whether machine learning (ML) models can forecast daily Bitcoin price directions and generate statistically significant alpha in trading strategies. Employing a dual-model approach, we utilize a Random Forest (RF) classifier, leveraging its non-linear strengths and a LASSO-penalized logistic regression as a linear benchmark. Both models are trained on a comprehensive dataset o

The feasibility of the global energy transition may rest on the ability of nations to harness hydrogen's potential for cross-sectoral decarbonization. In countries historically reliant on natural gas for domestic heating and cooking such as the UK, hydrogen may prove critical to meeting net-zero targets and strengthening energy security. In response, the UK government is targeting industrial decar
