The aim with this report is to formulate a strategic method to optimize selection processes of DNA-samples from a faeces inventory to identify as many individuals in as few analyzes as possible, and by that keep down the costs of brown bear management. Brown bear management in Sweden founds today on results from faeces inventory and is substantially led by the county administration boards. Data from the years of 2004 and 2009´s inventories in Västerbotten was used to test and evaluate different methods in selection processes of which faeces that should be sampled. Comparison were made between making selection by chance, by spatial distribution and by calculating variations in logistic regressions coefficient b, in other words bear density and probability in finding same individual in several faeces. We can show making selection by chance is the most uncertain method.

Abstract______________________________________________________________________Title:A study about creating understanding for different kinds of empowermentLevel:Bachelors thesis in Business Administration, 15 creditsAuthor:Fredrik LegovicSupervisor:Tomas KällquistDate:2014 - JuneAim:The main purpose of this study is to increase the understanding for different kinds of empowerment and how it affects the staff in the public sector.Method:The choice of method was based on the research aim. The method used to meet the objective was qualitative. The qualitative study was conducted with a hermeneutic basis, where individuals were asked to describe their experience of empowerment and how they feel affected of it. This thesis has a deductive approach, where existing theories dealing empowerment formed the basis for the design of interview substrate, which is then paired with the empirical evidence, based on this the conclusions was drawn.Result & Conclusion:What separates the different kinds of empowerment and how it affect the staff depends most of all on how the management chooses to communicate and share information with their staff.Suggestions for future research:A study regarding managers that works with different kinds of empowerment, and how that affects them, could be regarded as an interesting future research.Contribution of thesis:It shows that different kinds of empowerment affect the staff in different ways, which I made clear to the readers.Keywords:empowerment, thinking skills, relations and organizational - structure and theory.

Som den största webbaserade portalen har Facebook blivit en viktig plattform för många företag. Ett enkelt sätt att kommunicera med sina kunder är genom att företaget administrerar sitt egna varumärkescommunity på Facebook. Studier har visat på möjligheter för företag att stärka relationer till konsumenter och även höja varumärkesvärde, men risker med b.la. negativ åsiktsspridning har ändå lett till debatter om varumärkescommunities verkliga påverkan för företag. Denna studie undersöker hur varumärkescommunities på Facebook i Sverige påverkar olika konsumentrelationer och vilken påverkan de har på svenska varumärken. Detta görs genom att analysera hur relationer mellan konsument, produkt, varumärke, företag och andra konsumenter påverkas av varumärkescommunities.

Syftet med denna litteraturstudie är att ge en överblick i hur epiduralanestesi utförs och vilka risker och fördelar som tekniken medför. Epiduralanestesi är en typ av lokalanestesi och central nervblockad. Anestesimedlet injiceras extraduralt, det vill säga i epiduralrummet utanför den hårda hjärnhinnan (dura mater) vilken omger ryggmärgen. Användning av lokalanestetika vid ryggmärgens slut resulterar i förlust av viljestyrda rörelser och i upphörd känsel i områden innerverade av de påverkade känsel- och motorneuronen. Epidural administration av morfin ger långvarig (6-24h), effektiv analgesi som ej associeras med känsel-, sympatisk- eller motorblockad. Epiduralanestesi används framförallt för tre typer av patienter och situationer: Häst och ko (vid vaginal prolaps och kejsarsnitt), känsliga smådjur (nedsatta patienter som riskerar att inte överleva generell anestesin och vid kejsarsnitt) och postoperativ smärtlindring (patienter i behov av långvarig smärtlindring efter kirurgiska ingrepp i bakben, bäcken och kaudala delar av buken). Inom smådjurspraktiken läggs epiduralanestesi oftast i foramen lumbosacale (mellan L7 och S1) Området lokaliseras genom att fram höftbenskammarnas (crista iliaca) högsta punkt.

Examensarbete som bestod i att rita en låg- och mellanstadieskola i det nybyggda området Annedal. Skolan är programmerad för cirka 600 elever, sex årskurser med fyra klasser i varje årskurs, 25 elever i varje klass. Utöver de olika klassrummens hemklassrum breddades skolans program genom att låta specialklassrummen (slöjdsalar, idrottshall, mm) rita sig utåt och bli offentliga lokaler efter skoltid. Skolans program består alltså av 24 klassrum med tillhörande hemvister, två musiksalar, sal för träslöjd, sal för syslöjd, bibliotek, fullskalig idrottshall med fyra tillhörande omklädningsrum, en aula som rymmer hela skolan samt andra mer serviceinriktade skollokaler såsom matsal, skolkök och kontor för skolans administration.För att ta sig an skolans stora program användes en metod där skolan fick komma till som i ett collage. Olika väl fungerande rumsligheter från andra projekt blev inspirationskällor som införlivades och fogades in i byggnaden.Tanken om collaget blev även vägledande i utformningen av byggnadens estetik samt dess tekniska detaljer.

The purpose in this thesis is to explore the underlying conceptions concerningeuropeanization and public administration that Statskontoret is expressing in itspublications. Statskontoret is an agency in the service of the Swedish State whichprovides the Government and the Ministries with investigations and surveys. Themethodological choice in this thesis is to perform an idea analysis containing twoideal types which correspond with two polar theories, transnationalism andnation-state logic, concerning how a state will react on increasing european-ization. Initially, the theoretical framework is presented, and is followed by apresentation of the content in the relevant publications of Statskontoret. The idealtypes and the publications are examined from six different dimensions with theambition to explore the underlying conception in the publications.

Background: Due to outsourcing, the material flows in the telecom equipment industry have undergone major changes, which in turn has imposed new challenges for packaging supplier Nefab who delivers to the industry. In order to achieve market intelligence, Nefab wants to map the material flows, and investigate possibilities of further reusable logistical packaging systems.Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to describe the typical features of the logistical material flows in a technically based, rapidly growing industry, and analyze the driving forces and obstacles, which influence the selection of logistical packaging system. Procedure: After developing a theoretical framework consisting of general logistical theories and theories related to logistical packaging, we have interviewed companies in the logistics channel of Ericsson Radio Systems.Results: We have found the main characteristics of material flows in our investigated industry to be Variations in Demand, Focus on Time-to-Customer, and Globalization of Logistics Channels. Regarding driving forces and obstacles in the selection of logistical packaging systems, we have identified Transportation Characteristics, Customer Demands, Quality, Handling & Administration, and Current Packaging System as important factors..

This report explains the need to develop a configuration manager that handles transmission equipment which exists in the Swedish Defence telecommunications network. The configuration module will display the configurations and compatibility among the equipment and their software which are all part of the network.Also included in this report are tools, methods and results for the development of a prototype for the configuration manager. The prototype consists fundamentally of a database assisted by a user friendly website.The transmission equipment handles a lot of important transmission of information and is in the hands of a department of SAAB, OFGCA, by orders from the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV). Within the work included in this order exists a continuous update of both software and hardware which the equipment consists of. Therefore it?s highly important that there is a monitoring of which of the software and hardware is compatible with one another, ensuring that the functions of the system work properly.The consistent updating has resulted in compatibility issues between components and because of this, a need for a configuration manager has arisen..

The aim of the study is to investigate how social workers relate to the self-determination in cases that involve people who have dementia. To investigate this we have chosen to build a qualitative study. The study is based on four interviews with social workers in elderly care in Sweden. To analyze our material we chose the concept autonomy, and legal texts from the Social Services Act (SFS 2001: 453) and Parental code (SFS 1949: 381). Our results show that social workers are often forced to deviate from the law and guidelines to ensure the best for the person with dementia.

Partnering is a collaboration method where the contractor and the client work together, based on a mutual trust towards each other and with a common goal for the project. The method originates from the United States where it was early adapted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It later spread internationally where the United Kingdom and Denmark were early in Europe to see the potential with partnering, to help aid with the issues they were having where construction projects kept running late, going over budget and lacked in quality. By using partnering you can achieve a shorter building time, improved work relationships and enhanced efficiency and cost effectiveness.

The work related illness has increased and instead of focusing on what?s causing it more and more efforts are put on trying to find the health factors within and outside the work environment. During the past years the term ?long-term health? has arisen; instead of focusing on the number of employees on the sick-list, the focus should be put on the number of employees that has a record of long-term health within an organization, i.e. health-presence.

AbstractIn this bachelor thesis I discuss and analyse the current situation of the Venezuelan democracy. By using a theoretical framework based on the theory of horizontal accountability, I focus on the interaction between different institutions and branches within the state of Venezuela. The analysis focuses on the strenghts and flaws of the newly accepted constitution, and to what extent the institutions of checks and balances remain true to the laws and the constitution of 1999. My conclusions are that in terms of vertical accountability, the Chávez-regime acknowledges a wide popular support for their governmental actions. In contrast, the incumbent administration shows almost no respect for horizontal accountability.

In 2005 a public housing company in Uppsala, Sweden introduced the service quarter host. The focus on comfort (life quality in American programmes) is similar to the non-tolerance programmes. The idea of non-tolerance derived from the theory of Broken windows. The purpose is to examine how the service works according to the theories of Broken windows and social control. The aim is also to examine if the manifest and the latent functions are the same in different areas.
