The theory found in management literature regarding middle management explains the position as ambivalent with responsibilities such as communication, relationships and motivating staff. In our empirical approach however we found that these areas are divided between two separate positions where a sales manager, for example, has the authorities that follow a middle management position. The team lea

Agile software development promotes process adaptability throughout the life cycle of a project. A project is often broken down into smaller tasks and each task involves a cross-functional team working with all functions. There are many different agile methods, which focus on different aspects of the software development life cycle. Two of these agile methods are Kanban and Scrum, which focus on m

Den tekniska utvecklingen har under den senaste tiden tagit stora kliv framåt, vilka inneburit positiva förändringar för yttrandefriheten. Men parallellt med de nya möjligheterna har det även tillkommit nya problem. Internet, och främst sociala medier, har blivit en kommunikationsplattform där också hat, hot och kränkningar frodas. Känslan av anonymitet och den fysiska distans som internet skapar The development of the Internet, and also user devices such as smart phones, has recently made significant strides, which have had a great positive impact on freedom of speech. However, in parallel with the new opportunities, new problems have developed. The Internet, and foremost social media, has become a communication platform where hatred, threats and violations of privacy thrive. The feeling

Varför sätter vi i Sverige de flesta solcellerna på tak? Att producera el från solceller på tak är något som blir allt vanligare i Sverige. Men hur kostnadseffektivt är det att placera solceller på tak? Ett tak har tyvärr inte alltid en optimal vinkel mot solen vilket minskar el-produktionen. I länder som Rumänien och Bulgarien produceras nästan all solel från anläggningar på marken, vilket myckThe electricity produced from photovoltaics represents only a small fraction of the total electricity consumption in Sweden, but the installed capacity in Sweden doubled for the fourth year in a row in 2014. If this trend continues it is both interesting and important to discuss where we want to see PV systems in our future society. Looking at the market share of different types of PV systems in o

Lies are part of everyday life, but lies within the justice system is illegal (perjury). Yet it happens that people are committing perjury, increasingly, with potentially serious consequences. Statistics from 1976 – 2009 show that more than half of all who are found guilty of perjury is between 15 and 20 years and that the number of women is a growing group. It can be read from eighteen legal case

This is an investigation of the FIFA World Cup 2010 and effects on housing rights in Cape Town. South Africa has a harsh history of displacement of people and the government has, because of that, promised that no one will be displaced because of the sport event. The government is also promising a lot of opportunities for the population in the entire Africa. To investigate how mega-events affect ho

This thesis examines the external energy policy of the European Union in a two-step approach. First, an analysis of the degree of actorness that the EU has achieved in this new policy field is carried out on the basis of the theoretical concept introduced by Bretherton and Vogler. It is argued that the EU only possesses fragmented actorness in all three dimensions examined. Second, this is followe

ABSTRACT Author: Rowena E. Nystrand Title: “It’s a case of fitting into the picture, otherwise you’ve failed …” A qualitative study of men's experience of becoming an involuntary father (translated title) Supervisor: Anders Östnäs Assessor: Håkan Jönson The background to this paper lies in a media interest in the problems of unwilling fathers but with very little research having been done i

One of the interim targets in the Swedish national Good Built Environment objective states that biological treatment of source separated food waste should be a priority. The goal of biologically treating 35 percent of all municipal food waste in 2010 was not achieved, and a proposed target for 2015 raises the bar even further (40 percent). The way the proposed milestone target is phrased excludes

Application of concurrent engineering (CE) to product development process (PDP) has to consider the type of production (individual, serial, mass), product complexity and level of design: original, innovative, variation and adaptive. Systematic analyses of product development processes, workflows, data and project management, in various companies, has shown that specific criteria have to be fulfill

This chapter aims to reflect about the power that is exercised in autobiographical accounts. Criminal policy ultimately shows how everyday life, identities, and biographies are constituted. The criminal policy of the Swedish welfare state was founded on the ideology of treatment and social engineering. Looking at the prison as a training camp helps me to see how the norms are impressed on people,

This paper performs a numerical study regarding the effects of different kinds of coolants on flow and heat transfer in a pin-finned internal channel. A new pin-fin structure detached from one endwall with a round-tip is proposed which aims to increase the heat transfer enhancement. As a contrast, the investigation of the typical fully-attached pin-fin and the flat-tip detached pin-fin is also con

The Student Council of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB-SC) is a student-focused organization for researchers from all early career levels of training (undergraduates, masters, PhDs and postdocs) that organizes bioinformatics and computational biology activities across the globe. Among its activities, the ISCB-SC organizes several symposia in different continents, many tim

A combination of Fourier transform infrared and phase transition measurements as well as molecular computer simulations, and thermodynamic modeling were performed to probe the mechanisms by which guanidinium (Gnd+) salts influence the stability of the collapsed versus uncollapsed state of an elastin-like polypeptide (ELP), an uncharged thermoresponsive polymer. We found that the cation's action wa

The purpose of this paper was to study the various organisations that work with drug abusing homeless people in Lund. We have tried to compare the possibilities they have to change the way the homeless people look at themselves. The organisations that we have studied are Aluma, Diakonicentralen, the shelter Piletorp and the social welfare office. The methods used to collect data were interviews w

The main purpose of this study is to investigate in what ways librarians and schoolteachers can co-operate and combine their professional skills in order to help and motivate children with reading and writing disabilities, and how audio books can be useful in this work. The main source of information is interviews with teachers from ten schools in the province of Scania, southern Sweden. Those tea
