Filmdistributionen befinner sig i en ny digital verklighet. Den snabba tekniska utveckling som har ägt rum de senaste decennierna har inneburit stora utmaningar för såväl filmindustrins affärsmodell som de upphovsrättsliga bestämmelser som reglerar skyddet för filmverk och dess upphovsmän. Ett exempel på en bestämmelse vars tillämpningsområde är oklart till följd av den nya distributionen av digitFilm distribution has found itself in a new digital reality. The swift progress of technology that has taken place during the past decades has posed major challenges for both the film industry's business model and for the copyright laws that regulate the area. An example of a regulation whose scope is unclear as a result of the new distribution of digital copies is the principle of exhaustion.

Many Swedish multifamily buildings from the 1960s are now reaching a stage where major renovation is needed to improve energy performance, indoor environmental quality, and long-term climate performance. At the same time, renovation strategies may involve trade-offs between operational energy savings, embodied carbon, thermal comfort, and material circularity. This thesis evaluates energy-efficien

Under de senaste årtiondena har sättet vi arbetar på genomgått stor förändring. Arbe-ten som tidigare påverkade oss fysiskt medför idag snarare psykiska besvär. De sen-aste åren har psykosocial ohälsa ökat och är idag den vanligaste orsaken till sjuk-skrivningar. För att motverka att ohälsan uppstår på arbetsplatsen har Arbetsmiljöver-ket utfärdat en föreskrift (AFS 2015:4) om organisatorisk och sOver the past few decades the way we work has undergone a great change. Work that previously affected us physically rather couse psychological issues today. In recent years, psychosocial illness has increased and is by now the most common cause of sick leave. In order to prevent the illness arised at workplaces Arbetsmiljöverket has issued a regulation (AFS 2015:4) of organizational and social wor

Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda och redogöra för det allmänna ansvar arbetsgivaren har för arbetsmiljön när arbetstagarens arbetsplats flyttar från kontoret till arbetstagarens hem. Genom att undersöka, återge och analysera den rättsliga regleringen är ambitionen att få en tydligare förståelse för det ansvar arbetsgivaren har för arbetsmiljön när arbetet sker från arbetstagarens hem. VidareThe purpose of this essay is to investigate and account for the general responsibility the employer has for the working environment when the employee's workplace moves from the office to the employee's home. By examining, reproducing, and analyzing the legal regulation, the ambition is to gain a clearer understanding of the employer's responsibility for the work environment when the wo

The official controls performed by a food inspector as well as the written official documents is essential for ensuring food safety and minimizing acute health risks caused by pathogenic microorganisms. It’s important that the operator changes behavior after the inspector has completed the control, in order to maintain good management of the business and of the food. The purpose of this study is t

With reference to the exposure and violence Ugandan street children are effected by, this paper aims to form an understanding as well as provide insight on the construction of the concepts “violence” and “pain” in the discursive field of Ugandan street children. It then aims to place the findings in Jonathan Wolff and Avner De-Shalit's function theory. Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe’s disco

The NPM is considered as an efficacious way to improve effectiveness and efficiency in management control of public health for its market-driven and market-driving characteristics. Theoretically, it is a hybrid of economics and business management in public management. Because of its advanced adaptability and flexibility, the NPM has been widely applied to many fields and yield results. In China’s

The following paper examines discussions of feminism online and how participants orientate themselves in these. The specific case consists of a swedish separatist Facebook group for women and non-binary people. The group has over 100000 members and has a constant flow of activity where members interact with each other in different ways. Among this activity there is discussions of feminism, often l

About 25,3 % of the Mozambican population is suffering from undernourishment even though a sufficient amount of food and specifically fruits are produced. Post-harvest losses are estimated to 25 % to 40 % and part of the production is not even harvested due to a short season. A solution has to be found to improve fruit preservation and allow the population to consume what is harvested later. Dryin

This master’s thesis is written for Tetra Pak with the aim to investigate if pitting corrosion inhibition can be detected for Stainless Steel 316L in contact with dairy products in an experimental setup. The aim was also to continue developing a corrosion test method to facilitate for material selection of food pro- cessing equipment in order to reduce the extent of detrimental pitting corrosion.

För att utöka biogasproduktionen i Västra Götalandsregionen (VGR) kan restströmmar från jordbrukssektorn fungera som en storskalig leverantör av biomassa. Produktionen av biogas minskar beroendet av fossila bränslen och rötresten som bildas kan också återföras till jordbrukssektorn, vilket skapar ett slutet kretslopp. I detta examensarbete granskades utökningen genom en kartläggning av biogasproduTo expand the biogas production in Region Västra Götaland (RVG), residual streams from the agricultural sector can function as a large-scale supplier of biomass. The production of biogas decreases the dependence of fossil fuels and the digestate that is formed can also be returned to the agricultural sector, creating a closed loop. The expansion was assessed in this thesis by the investigation of

The majority of the deaths when a fire takes place are due to the smoke. The fire gases can easily spread through the ventilation system if it is not properly designed and some safety measures are taken. The current legislation suggest as solution to install independent ventilation systems or smoke barriers. However, the new Swedish legislation will offer new possibilities base on smoke dilution

Det utbredda tiggeriet i Europa öppnar upp för många frågor. I Sverige är regleringarna kring tiggeri relativt oklara. Efter min tolkning av gällande rätt visas att tiggeriet inte är förbjudet och inte heller tillståndspliktigt enligt ordningslagen. Dock finns det vissa möjligheter att genom lokala ordningsföreskrifter belägga det aktiva tiggeriet med tillståndsplikt med hänsyn till att det stör d

The thesis aims at understanding, from a world-system analytical perspective, the economic and social structures behind the Swedish territorial expansion in the 17th century, given the economic backwardness of the country in a Western European comparison. Through a study of the works of Eli F. Heckscher and Immanuel Wallerstein among others, the thesis investigates the internal dynamics of the Swe

In recent years the railway has received a lot of negative publicity thanks to the large amount of delay hours that occurs during winter conditions and especially at snowfall. In our railway network, the points are the most targeted problem components were snow and ice cause the most problems. Due to its moving parts and low tolerances for disorder, a few millimeters of gap between the rails is en

“International Msc Educational Programme in Environmental Management and Modelling” (GeoNetC) is a European Commission funded project under ERASMUS+: Higher Education – International Capacity Building programme (Project No 561967-EPP-1-2015-1-SE-EPPKA2-CBHE-JP). It began in October 2015 and ended in October 2018. Initiated by the Lund University and partners from the Middle East countries, the Geo

The home has a self-evident place within audience studies. In spite of this salient position, the home has seldom been theoretically problematized; it has often been ‘reduced’ to a social context of the prioritized media engagement (domestication research is partly an exception). The paper is further justified by the fact that media and media practices are important for the home and its boundaries

PURPOSE Effective treatments are needed for melanoma that progresses on inhibitors of programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1). We conducted the phase II LEAP-004 study to evaluate the combination of the multikinase inhibitor lenvatinib and the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab in this population (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03776136).METHODSEligible patients with unresectable

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a severe condition affecting millions worldwide, leading to numerous annual deaths. The absence of significant symptoms in its early stages promotes high underdiagnosis rates for the affected people. Besides pulmonary function failure, another harmful problem of COPD is the systemic effects, e.g., heart failure or voice distortion. Howeve

The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism. Transhumanism was an attempt to unite a more traditional humanistic view of the human as containing some form of core essence or potential with an evolutionary point of view of humans as a work in progress. Before humans, natural selection had bee
