When contemplating entering an alliance the rationale behind the decision should differ depending on the size of the companies involved as well as on other important factors. The important factors influencing the decision are related to the resource pooling potential of the alliance, the power structure along with the business network the companies are a part of. The analysis has shown proof of a need for cooperation if one wish to succeed in the telecommunication industry and it has also determined which resources that are deemed to be most important to get in touch with, for our study object, to facilitate its access to the market. Those resources are defined as a direct channel to the customer, funds/capital and the access to relevant business networks. To get in touch with these lacking resources, three alternative approaches has been proposed; all of them involving a strategic alliance decision.

Trelleborg Rubore AB utvecklar, tillverkar och säljer laminerade material för olika industriella applikationer, framförallt till bilindustrin.Examensarbetet är gjort i samarbete med Trelleborg Rubore AB där de vill göra förändringar på sin slittlina. Genom analys ska det ges möjlighet att förbättra ergonomin samt förbättra produktionen.Den långa ställtiden i jämförelse med körtiden samtidigt som nästan allt material går igenom lina 3 skapar ett problem för Rubore AB. Genom att analysera dagens läge och hitta de största problemen med lina 3 kan ett antal alternativ föras fram som ger svar på målet och syftet med arbetet..

This thesis focuseses on archives and availability. The general public seem to have trouble finding their way tothe actual archives even though most archival institutions are easily accessed and provide interesting material.Maybe it is because archives are generally not as well known as other institutions within the ALM-area, eventhough the need to know ones history and identity is considered mainstream. Whether or not history takes off atthe archives is a complex question to answer. Archives, however, certanly contribute to our ideas of earlier timesand the concept of history.I have examined what archives do to make these contributions known to the general public and to whatextent they make their material avaliable. I have also looked into archival pedagogy since it is often connected toavaliability.

Enligt läroplanen för förskolan ska förskolan erbjuda barn en lärmiljö där de kan växla mellan olika aktiviteter såväl inomhus som utomhus. Studiens syfte är att undersöka de förutsättningar som olika leksaksförråds material erbjuder för barns lek och samspel under deras utevistelse. Vidare är syftet att ta reda på hur förskollärare förhåller sig till olika typer av leksaker och saker att leka med ute på gården. Uppsatsen bygger på en kvalitativ metodansats genom tre observationer och sex intervjuer. Genom dessa undersöker vi tre förskolors leksaksförråd och material som barnen har tillgång till i sin utevistelse samt sex förskollärares resonemang kring dessa.Resultatet visar på att förskollärare har olika resonemang och uppfattningar kring materialets olika funktioner för barns lärande och utveckling av materialets användning. Dessa funktioner påverkas av barns tillgänglighet och pedagogers förhållningssätt.

Idag finns det ett stort antal företag på den svenska marknaden som tillverkar och säljerprofilkläder för vården.Utbudet från dessa företag är slående lika varandra och det finns ett begränsat utbud vadgäller färger och modeller.Inom den privata vårdomsorgen har man mer resurser och därmed större möjligheter att skapaen unik arbetsmiljö. En modern och stilren arbetsklädsel tillför mycket till denna atmosfär ochutbudet av profilkläder borde därav breddas.Genom att redogöra för olika ekologiska material samt de grundläggande egenskaperna enligtvilken man skapar ett material av lämplig kvalitet lägger vi grunden för skapandet av enklädsel som tillför en känsla av exklusivitet och unikhet.Lägg därefter till en skapandeprocess av två prototyper av en överdel samt en nederdel somett alternativ till dagens modeller. Plaggen är inspirerade från klassiskt mode och modeller.Till detta tillkommer sedan färganalys där olika färger presenteras samt färgernas viktigasteegenskaper..

Syftet med vårt arbete var att göra en djupare kvalitativ undersökning av arbetet med språkutveckling hos flerspråkiga elever. Med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer skapade vi oss en bild av skolans verksamhet och arbete med flerspråkighet på en mångkulturell skola och en icke mångkulturell skola. Våra slutsatser är att det krävs ett samarbete för att nå ett så effektivt arbetssätt som möjligt. Eleverna behöver flerspråkigt stöd och material samt uppmuntran för att vidare utvecklas språkligt och kunskapsmässigt. Vi kom fram till att en flerspråkig elev har tillgång till bättre resurser på en mångkulturell skola.

The requirements of good quality and appetizing fast food increases continuously as a consequence of a community where food is always available. The crispiness of French fries is an issue that must be considered in this context, since it tends to decrease and give the fries a soft surface not appreciated by the consumer. To prolong the crispiness, the fries can be coated by a batter, a mix of starches. The batters used often consists of modified starches, e.g. cross-linked, acetylated and dextrinizated to increase and prolong crispiness, flour to stabilize the batter and sodium bicarbonate to make the batter ?rise?.The cross-linked starch keeps the granules in a swelled state and prevents them from breaking when exposed to heat or processing: therefore, it delays the gelatinization and decreases the stickiness of the batter.

This thesis studies the negative impact that control signal saturation may have on a controlled system. Different methods that are used to compensate for this problem are also studied and evaluated. Both sensitivity to disturbances and the effect the method has on the systems'ability to follow a reference signal will be examined. Stability will be discussed, but no conclusions whether the systems are stabilized or not can be drawn. Control signal saturation will lead to a slower behavior in general.

An interview study of horsemanship has been conducted in the community of Ängelholm. The study is part of a larger project, where a further four students who are writing their thesis? have conducted interviews in Lerum, Hässleholm, Nyköping and Enköping, a total of 52 horse holders in 5 different communities. The collective results are summarised in "Hur hålls hästarna i Sverige och vilka är motiven" by Catharina Svala. The purpose of this larger report has been to examine why Swedish horsemanship is the way it is today through communication with the various horse holders.

Legionella can be prevented, the question is how. This report is a degree in construction engineering education at Chalmers University in Gothenburg. A comprehensive written publication for Legionella-safe plumbing installations is not available and therefore requested. The purpose of this report is to present preventative measures against Legionella bacteria growth in tap water and in other systems where Legionella bacteria are a potential problem. Technical solutions are presented including how different systems function and what their advantages and disadvantages are.

Title: Merkel with NSA on the telephoneThe aim of this essay is to study how Angela Merkel is being portrayed in context of NSAs surveillance in the Swedish newspapers Dagens Nyheter and Aftonbladet. The time period for the study is from the 24th of October to the 7th of November in the autumn of 2013. To concretize the aim three questions was formulated, how Angela Merkel was being portrayed in the material, how NSAs surveillance of Angela Merkel was being portrayed in the material and how different statements for various individuals in the material could affect the truth about the surveillance. The method chosen to study these questions was a discourse analysis, which also would contain parts of a linguistic analysis. The theories to support the method were Laclau & Mouffes discourse theory and Michel Foucault?s genealogical discourse analysis.
