This paper attempts at developing an approach integrating industry dynamics with its labour force evolution by analysing inflows of labour into rapidly expanding knowledge intensive IT services sector in Sweden between 1991 and 2010. To analyse how requirements on incoming labour and the value put on different skills changed during this process, we look at entry conditions and post-entry performan
Disturbances are believed to be one of the main factors influencing variations in community diversity and functioning. Here we investigated if exposure to a pH press disturbance affected the composition and functional performance of a bacterial community and its resistance, recovery and resilience to a second press disturbance (salt addition). Lake bacterial assemblages were initially exposed to r
Attention Restoration Theory point to nature as a particularly good candidate for restoring the ability to focus and inhibit distractions. However, little effort has been directed to elaborating on what makes nature's visual pattern unique for restoration purposes. One suggested explanation is the fractal properties of natural patterns (Hagerhall, 2005). Both perception studies (Hagerhall et al.,
This research explores young mothers' usage of social media to obtain child-rearing information in mainland China. I interviewed 11 Chinese women with the different background of their everyday social media practices. Through analyzing of their interpretation, the research displays one facet of mediated society, that is how social media influences young Chinese mothers in different aspects, sh
Den här uppsatsen handlar om återkallelse av läkarlegitimationer på grund av grov oskicklighet i tjänsteutövningen. Uppsatsen besvarar den centrala frågan: vad innebär det att vara grovt oskicklig? Samtidigt sker det en djupdykning i begreppet vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet och en redogörelse för de beviskrav som ställs upp i mål om återkallelse av läkarlegitimation. Bestämmelsen om återkallelsThis essay is about the revocation of medical license due to severe inaptitude in the service. The essay answers the central question: what does it mean to act severely inapt? Furthermore, the essay will explain the term science and established experience, as well as the evidentiary requirements in cases concerning revocation of medical license. The revocation clause is found in Chapter 8, Section
When designing large complex steel structures numerical calculation methods are always used to some extent. The simulation technology of today is advanced and can with proper modeling technique provide detailed analyses which captures the structural response accurately. For most projects it is not reasonable to analyze a complete structure in exact detail and therefore simplified methods are used
In contemporary Sweden, welfare professionals are mobilising to signal that they lack the preconditions to carry out their work in line with the politically stated mission and professional ethics. Following a seminar in which welfare professionals shared their views on the working conditions, this study explores action strategies for welfare professionals who seek to influence the policy agenda. T
Increasing nitrogen(N) deposition due to anthropogenic activities has become a significant global change threat to N-poor terrestrial ecosystems. We compared bacterial growth and nutrients limiting bacterial growth in one of the longest running experiments on increasing N-deposition to a temperate forest, the Chronic Nitrogen Amendment Study at Harvard Forest, USA. Soil samples were collected in f
Background: B-vitamins are essential for one-carbon metabolism and have been linked to colorectal cancer. Although associations with folate have frequently been studied, studies on other plasma vitamins B2, B6, and B12 and colorectal cancer are scarce or inconclusive. Methods: We carried out a nested case-control study within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition, includ
We studied bacterial and fungal colonization of submerged plant litter, using a known Si-accumulator (Equisetum arvense), in experimental microcosms during one month. We specifically addressed the microbial decomposer role concerning biogenic silica (bSiO2) dissolution from the degrading litter. To vary the rates and level of microbial colonization, the litter was combined with a range of mineral
To assess how synergies between climate warming and increased concentrations of humic substances ("brownification") will affect rotifer community establishment in spring, we conducted a mesocosm experiment where we combined a 3 degrees C temperature increase with a doubling in water color, changes corresponding to modeled projections for the coming 25-75 yr. We also performed a complementary preda
Carry-over effects take place when events occurring in one season influence individual performance in a subsequent season. Blood parasites (e.g. Plasmodium and Haemoproteus) have strong negative effects on the body condition of their hosts and could slow the rate of feather growth on the wintering grounds. In turn, these winter moult costs could reduce reproductive success in the following breedin
Sedan 2014 gäller lagen (2014:307) om straff för penningtvättsbrott (hädanefter PTBL). Gentemot tidigare straffrättslig reglering kring penningtvätt fanns en uppfattning om att åklagaren behövde bevisa ett konkret förbrott för att straffansvar skulle aktualiseras. Svårigheter att bevisa förbrott föranledde införandet av ett mer omfattande rekvisit. I 3 och 4 §§ PTBL krävs numera att egendom ”härröSince 2014, the Money Laundering Offences Act (hereafter the MLO Act) applies. In relation to the previous criminal law regulation regarding money laundering the perception was that the prosecutor had to prove a certain predicate offence for criminal liability. Difficulties in proving the predicate offence induced the adoption of a more comprehensive necessary prerequisite. Henceforth, section 3 a
Terrorism och bekämpningen av den är ett alltid lika relevant ämne. Efter den 11 september 2001 var det en stor uppslutning bland det internationella samfundet och det slöts flera överenskommelser både i Förenta nationerna och senare även på EU-nivå. Det är dessa överenskommelser som lade grunden till den svenska lagstiftningen mot terrorism. De senaste åren har Sverige valt en ny metod i kampen mTerrorism and the struggle against it are always relevant topics. After the terror attacks on the 11th of September 2001 the international community rallied together against international terrorism. Both the United Nations and the European Union came to several agreements among themselves to fight terrorism. These agreements and conventions laid the groundwork for the Swedish legislation on the su
In 2009, the Greenlandic population voted for full autonomy from Denmark; however, certain areas such as foreign and defense policy remain under Danish jurisdiction, with Denmark administering specific sectors, including the police force. Consequently, the Greenlandic Police is organized as a district within the Danish Police, resulting in a distinct structure that integrates both Greenlandic and
Domstolarna i det svenska rättsväsendet delas primärt upp i två grupper: de allmänna domstolarna och de allmänna förvaltningsdomstolarna. Den senare gruppen av domstolar ansvarar för förvaltningsrättskipningen och utgörs av förvaltningsrätterna (som också utgör första instans enligt överprövningsförfarandet), kammarrätterna (andra instans) och Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen, HFD (sista instans). DomThe courts in the Swedish legal system are primarily constituted by two groups: the General Courts and the Administrative Courts. The latter group is constituted by the Administrative Court (which handles cases as the first instance), the Administrative Court of Appeal (second instance) and the Supreme Administrative Court (last instance). The Administrative Courts are responsible for the administ

This bachelor’s thesis explores the ethical challenges associated with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in municipal social services in the Skåne region of Sweden. As AI technologies are increasingly adopted to improve efficiency and support decision-making, it is important to understand how ethical principles are upheld in practice. The study aimed to identify these challenges and examine
Machine Protection Systems (MPS) at the European Spallation Source (ESS) aim to protect equipment from damage while minimizing accelerator downtime with respect to safety and availability requirements. Main Control Room operators and MPS experts rely on alarm systems to effectively detect faults and guide intervention actions. Current implementations in the Fast Beam Interlock System (FBIS) are pr
