In the fall of 2007 a collective of artists in southern Sweden made waves for themselves by attempting to construct a rather unique ‘club-format’ unlike any other in the [then] current Swedish underground club scene. Guided mainly by a self-proclaimed ‘notion of confusion’ as its foundational principle, the collective behind Klubb Kristallen branded itself as an aspiring anti-club by seeking to ch
The galloping pace of development in the field of wireless communication has left the world astounded over the last decade. But this has also led to a wild and inexcusable extravagant expenditure of energy. Due to the dynamic nature of wireless network, it has become imperative to focus more on energy efficiency and achieve desired Quality of Service (QoS). The challenge of diminishing the carbon
A major problem in the development of intelligent hearing aids is often referred to as the cocktail party problem. It describes the remarkable ability of the human brain of filter out unwanted sounds in a noisy environment, while focusing on a single talker or conversation. Without the ability to select and enhance a specific sound source of choice while suppressing the background, the hearing aid
The purpose of this paper is to critically examine documents setting down standards for EU asylum policies, in order to see if the power structures and actions called for therein can give a hint as to why declared human rights goals are not fully accomplished by the EU and its member states when implementing the policies. Methodologically this research is done by carrying out a Critical Discourse
Previous research has shown that irradiation in-utero or during early childhood may cause longlasting damage. Studies on the Chernobyl accident have found that all birth groups which received high doses of radiation in early life may have severe persisting disadvantage in health. However, we do not know which of the groups irradiated in early life was the most vulnerable. We also do not know wheth
Värdepappershandel tillsammans med annan finansiell verksamhet har undantagits från mervärdesskatteplikt inom EU sedan 1977, när Direktivet 77/388/EEC lagstiftades. Ursprungligen stadgades undantaget för dessa finansiella tjänster på grund av skattetekniska problem som uppkommer vid framställande av det beskattningsbara underlaget. Direktivet, som sedermera har ersatts av Direktivet 2006/112/EC (tTrade in securities along with other financial activities has been enjoying the VAT exempt status within the EU since 1977, when Directive 77/388/EEC was passed. The VAT exemption for the financial services was originally enacted due to the difficulties relating to defining the taxable amount for the VAT purposes. The mentioned Directive, which has consequently been replaced by Directive 2006/112/
Backgrund: Nederman har ett långsiktigt mål att förbättra enheten i Helsingborg. Ett steg i detta är att se om det finns några förbättringar att genomföra i lagerstyrningen i form av lager- och servicenivåer. Detta då de anställda upplever dagens verktyg som ganska trubbiga för det nuvarande produktsortimenetet och att detta kanske kan förbättras genom ytterliggare en dimension på det befintliga sBackground: Nederman has a long term goal of improving their supply unit in Helsingborg. One step of this is to investigate if there are any improvements to be made in the inventory control in terms of stock levels and service level. This since the employees at Nederman believes that the existing methods are too blunt as a tool for the product range and that their methods can be improved by adding
The aim of this study is to analyze the change of Basque nationalism during the last ten years and discuss how the main nationalist party (PNV) tries to impose "we"- feelings and support for its cause. Theories of nationalism and national identity are used in the analysis. A textual analysis of PNV:s unofficial documents is discussed and compared with a discourse analysis of its officia
The HCCI engine has shown great qualities such as high efficiency combined with low emissions. However, many issues have not totally been solved yet. One way to control the combustion timing, one of the commented issues, is dual fuel utilizing the difference in ignition temperature between different fuels. So, from this point on it is not difficult to think about developing a big mapping of one H
New models of combustion engines have gained a great interest within research in the last decade. This interest has arisen due to the possibility to achieve a higher degree of efficiency and lower emissions, which will impact the environment positively. A higher degree of efficiency implicates an economical benefit in terms of fuel. The HCCI engine has been thoroughly researched due to its combine
Ökande marktemperaturer har rapporterats från hela Arktis. Marktemperaturen är känslig för klimatförändringar och spelar en viktig roll för biologiska och fysiska processer i jorden. I områden med permafrost (mark som är frusen minst två år i följd) kan en ökad marktemperatur leda till att permafrosten tinar, vilket kan få genomgripande konsekvenser på vegetation, hydrologi och infrastruktur. UpptIncreasing ground temperatures have been documented all around the Arctic. Ground temperatures are sensitive climate indicators and play an important role in biological and physical processes that occur in soils. Increases in ground temperatures can lead to permafrost thawing which in turn can have profound effects on vegetation, hydrology and infrastructure. Also the greenhouse gas balance can be
Det finns två krav som ska tas i beaktande när olika metoder mot skatteflykt utformas, rättssäkerhet och effektivitet. Sambandet mellan legalitetsprincipen och rättssäkerheten är starkt. Legalitetsprincipen sägs ha uppkommit för att rättstillämpningen ska vara förutsebar och fri från godtycke. Dessa två värden är en stor del av rättssäkerhetsbegreppet och det sägs därför att legalitetsprincipen ärThere are two requirements that must be considered when different methods against Tax Evasion are being designed, the rule of law and efficiency. The relationship between the principle of legality and the rule of law is strong. The principle of legality is said to have incurred in order to make the legal purpose predictable and free from arbitrariness. These two components are a big part of the ru
The purpose of this study was to identify if and how the personal perspectives and views of social workers active within local social services departments in Sweden might affect how they carry out the transfer of children’s custody from biological to foster parents. The general discourse in child welfare in Sweden gives predominance to a family preservation perspective in which foster care placeme
The purpose of this study is to examine the optimal hedge ratio for the currency exposure of foreign investments. The optimal hedge ratio is determined after evaluating our portfolios from the three perspectives; ex-ante, ex-post and profit/loss. The ex-ante perspective is examined by the usage of historical simulation to calculate VaR on 11 portfolio pairs. Each pair consists of a portfolio with
Summary: Lake Bussjö is an 0.3 hectare large kettle hole in a hummocky morain landscape four kilometers north of Ystad. The purpose of this study is to investigate the stratigraphy and reconstruct the highest water level. Another task is to estimate the rate of farmland advance on earlier grazingland and swamps. Furthermore, to calculate the future development of the lake. To make the stratigraphy
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka och kritiskt granska hur personer med osynliga funktionsnedsättningar behandlas inom arbetsrätten. Särskilt fokus riktas på situationen där uppsägning på grund av personliga skäl är aktuell. Frågorna är av särskilt intresse med anledning av den reform av lagen (1982:80) om anställningsskydd (LAS) som ska genomföras i svensk rätt senare i år. För att kunna upThis thesis aims to describe and critical peruse how the Swedish law treats persons with invisible disabilities in the labour law, with a special focus on termination of employment due to personal reasons. The essay is of particular interest because of the reform of the Employment Protection Act (SFS 1982:80), which is to be implemented in Swedish law later this year. To be able to answer the aim
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, increasing yearly. However, many abnormalities in heart cycles can be discovered and treated years before the onset of diseases. But in most societies, regular health checkups are a concept reserved for cars, not humans. In order to save lives, our healthcare systems must adopt a preventative rather than a reactive approach. To that
Prostatacancer är den näst vanligast förekommande typen av cancer för män i världen. Att ha tillgång till ordentliga och tillräckliga diagnostiseringsverktyg är därför en avgörande faktor för hur väl vården kan hantera och behandla patienterna. Idag används Gleason gradering for att bedöma hur allvarlig cancern är. Metoden introducerades på 60-talet och går ut på att granska hur välstrukturerade cProstate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer for men, making proper diagnostic essential. Using machine learning as a tool to help in digital pathology has become increasingly popular and helps to limit the high intra observer variability between pathologists. Due to the many cases of prostate cancer and the large differences between tumours, treatments have to be individualized for e
“Silences haunt every archive”, says Rodney Carter, words that illustrate the significance of the archival practice in selecting and arranging the documents that reflect the past. This study begins in the notion that the archivist’s profession represents a certain form of power, manifested in this practice. What sort of history and which stories that will be known in the future lies very much in t
