Open source software has been gaining popularity, especially among commercial organizations. The broad industry acceptance is in large part due to the demonstrated ability of open source solutions to compete with proprietary alternatives. Using open source software components enables companies to reduce their own development costs, and thus improve software development efficiency. Many open source
In 2010 there will be a political resolution to ensure that the Swedish society is accessible to all citizens including people with disabilities. For this purpose a national action plan for disability policy "From patient to citizen" (Govt. Bill 1999/2000:79) has been set out with the aim of ensuring that the disability perspective will permeate every sector of society and that the appro
The topic of this thesis deals with the implementation deficit in the environmental sector that exists within the EU. According to the 25th annual, report from the Commission, there were over 3400 complaints and infringement files under 2007. The environmental sector was the area with the highest number of open cases that concerned non-compliance in 2006 Sweden is however one of the best Member St
Background and aims Symptoms of dizziness and pain are both common complaints and the two symptoms often seem to coincide. When symptoms appear concomitant for sustained periods of time the symptoms might maintain and even exacerbate each other, sometimes leading to psychological distress. In order to evaluate such comorbidity we studied patients referred to a vestibular unit and to a psychiatric
Creating nutritious and ecologically regenerative food cultures depends on the local knowledge of food system laborers. Food producers in small island developing states center socioecological interdependence in their livelihoods and, as such, conserve biocultural diversity. Amid burgeoning health, economic, and climate crises brought on by colonialism, reclaiming food sovereignty requires a critic

In Sweden, two providers of digital primary care have expanded rapidly over the past years giving rise to a heated debate with clear policy implications. The purpose of the study is to present a descriptive review of digital primary care as curren
This report summarizes a survey performed in eight countries on the status quo of daylight and electric lighting control systems. Feedback from more than 100 international experts (building / facility managers and planers) was evaluated. The aim of the survey was to identify the perception of the different possibilities of the current lighting control solutions and the expectations about the contr
Organisms are continually challenged by multiple threats in the environment, and such threats are seldom constant in either time or space. Therefore, organisms must maintain physiological, behavioural, morphological and life- history adaptations across environments to prevent reductions in fitness. Freshwater ecosystems are particularly variable environments, and so organisms inhabiting lakes and
This thesis focuses on processing and electro-optical investigations of two- and three-terminal photodetectors based on large arrays of around three million n+-i-n+ InP nanowires with embedded InAsP quantum heterostructures for broadband detection. First, we investigated the optoelectronic behavior of two-terminal photodetectors under selective 980 nm excitation of the 20 axially embedded InAsP qu
We aim to provide a critical appraisal of basic concepts underlying signal recording and processing technologies applied for (i) atrial fibrillation (AF) mapping to unravel AF mechanisms and/or identifying target sites for AF therapy and (ii) AF detection, to optimize usage of technologies, stimulate research aimed at closing knowledge gaps, and developing ideal AF recording and processing technol
The purpose of the research presented in this thesis is to enhance the field of accessibility to include a multitude of perspectives. Based on cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT), it analyzes how human, artifactual and natural factors impact an individual’s possibilities to act in concrete situations that are part of a systemic whole.The thesis presents two main results:An enhanced accessib
Elektroniska hälsodata produceras, insamlas och används idag av ett stort antal olika typer av aktörer inom EU. Tillgången till och delningen av denna elektroniska hälsodata anses utgöra ett led i att såväl förbättra hälso- och sjukvården inom unionen som för främjandet av exempelvis innovation och forskning. För att kunna förverkliga den fulla potential denna elektroniska hälsodata innehar inrättElectronic health data are currently produced, collected and used by a wide range of actors within the European Union. Access to and sharing of such data are regarded as instrumental in both improving healthcare within the Union and in promoting, inter alia, innovation and research. In early 2025, through the European Health Data Space Regulation, a framework governing the use and exchange of such
Fåmansföretagsreglerna, som återfinns i 56 och 57 kap. IL, fastställer om en delägares andelar i ett företag ska klassificeras som kvalificerade, vilket är avgörande för att bestämma vilket inkomstslag delägaren ska beskattas i. Reglerna infördes för att motverka att arbetsinkomster beskattas i inkomstslaget kapital i stället för tjänst. Utomståenderegeln fungerar som en begränsning av en alltföThe closely held company rules, found in Chapters 56 and 57 of the Income Tax Act, determine whether a shareholder’s shares in a company should be classified as qualified. This classification is crucial for deciding the income category in which the shareholder will be taxed. The rules were introduced to prevent income linked to a shareholder’s work efforts from being taxed as capital income rather
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka huruvida det kan utgöra en kränkning av de mänskliga rättigheterna i Europakonventionen när stater inte lever upp till sina klimatåtaganden och inte gör tillräckligt för att motverka klimatförändringarna. Uppsatsen inleds med en allmän överblick av klimatförändringarna och dess konsekvenser i förhållande till mänskliga rättigheter samt en genomgång av dThe purpose of this thesis has been to examine whether it can constitute a violation of the human rights protected by the European Convention on Human Rights when states do not do their part to counteract climate change. The essay starts off with a general overview of climate change and its consequences in relation to human rights, as well as a review of the two most central climate agreements, th

Inverter-based resources are playing an increasingly important role in power systems. However, the ability of inverter-based resources to deliver short-circuit currents is very limited, and often lies in the range of 1.2 to 2 p.u. for current power modules. This range is considerably lower when compared to that of synchronous generators, yielding short-circuit currents between 6 to 8 p.u. The diff
