The purpose of this thesis was to examine if there where fallacies in the design solutions for the business system IFS Applications from a user perspective, and if so, correct these from a cognitive science approach.Data collection consisted of three main portions. These where; workshop, individual interviews and observations. The collected data was analyzed and resulted in identification of two main areas in the application that where found lacking.The result of the study showed that the usability for processing large amounts of data and the lack of customization where the main flaws in the application. Two low fidelity prototypes where created with the purpose of rectifying the underlying flawed design solutions that where identified from the collected data..

Det huvudsakliga syftet med denna framställning är att försöka belysa eventuella skillnader och likheter gällande kollektivavtalets verkan för utomstående arbetstagare i de skandinaviska länderna Det torde vara en allmänt vedertagen sanning att det sett ur ett arbetsrättsligt perspektiv existerar en så kallad skandinavisk modell. Detta beror på att de arbetsrättsliga systemen i Norge, Sverige och Danmark är så pass lika, både vad gäller den kollektiva och den individuella arbetsrätten. Skandinaviska kollektivavtal äger i normalfallet endast tillämplighet på avtalsparterna och deras medlemmar. Det är emellertid i dagsläget att betrakta som en allmänt vedertagen rättsprincip att kollektivavtal, i dessa länder, har en viss fjärrverkan även för utomstående arbetstagare. Detta innebär att de anställningsvillkor som fastslås i kollektivavtal i viss utsträckning även gäller för utomstående arbetstagare.

The term "Project" have become a growing work model that exist in almost all bransches. A project is a work effort made over a finite period of time with a start and a finish to create a unique product, service, or result. Science shows that time limitation has an impact on humans to perform under pressure, which challanges the contributor to deliver. This report contains an examination about project management, both coming from scientific results and an external business. The point of this study is to bring ideas of improvement, which can make the work method more effective in this company..

The purpose with this study was to examine what kind of knowledge children in preschool have regarding what plants are, and what plants need in order to grow and survive. By means of qualitative interviews I have let 12 children in the ages of 3 to 5 years answer questions regarding the subject.From the results it is obvious that the children in the early age groups already have some knowledge of what a plant is and can also mention a few basic factors for a plants survival. In addition, the results show that their knowledge increases with the childs age and that the conversations become more distinct with more resulting questions the older the children are.Keywords. Enviroment, plants needs, Preeschool, science..

This essay has its background in the work I?ve been conducting organizing and cataloging two personal archives concerning the life and work of two vicars, Johan Axel Björkman and P.A. Björkman. The time span of the papers stretches from 1823 to 1982.The main problems I?ve been confronted with during this work have to do with respecting provenance and original order.

The aim of this Master's thesis is to study the public library identity from a brand perspective, how the public library brand identitity is communicated through blogs and what is communicated in them.The authors analyse the public library identity through selected concepts and a model within Aaker´s and Kapferer´s branding theories. These theories have been applied on literature and blogs as a method. The authors have examined literature about the public library identity in different works within Library and Information Science and political documents that applied to public libraries. An empirical study has been carried out on blogs published by public libraries in Sweden.The result of this study has lead to the identification of different core and extended identities for the public library brand. The core identities have been identified as democracy, adult education (the swedish word ?folkbildning? has no correct translation in english, adult education is the recommended related term) and lifelong learning.

This text concerns itself with war, the just war theory, and the application of that doctrine on the ?war on terrorism?. I present different views on the theory's place in the discourse, its relevance for unconventional wars followed by the analyses of above mentioned empirical situation.Particular interest is given the criteria concerning proportionality, both ad bellum and in bello, due to in part its difficult nature, and the attention it has received from others. This paper asks the question: Is the just war theory adequate for analysis of modern war?There are few alternatives.

The master's thesis investigates how the concept traditional knowledge is represented by international organizations that are influential in development work and policy making. Departing from a theoretical framework drawing on Michel Foucault, constructed aspects of knowledge and the power relations knowledge production implies are highlighted.A recent interest within library and information science and practice to document this kind of knowledge raises questions about how traditional knowledge differs from other forms of knowledge and how knowledge organizational tools can be applied. Investigations, which critically explore the concept traditional knowledge, the power relations the concept creates as well as the interests and purposes it serves, have been surprisingly absent within the discipline. The focus in this master's thesis is how traditional knowledge is conceptualized by international organizations. A discourse analytical approach reveals the power relations that are inherent in their descriptions of traditional knowledge and how they describe the relevance of the concept for their work.

Sellout är ett community där medlemmarna har en presentationssida, en gästbok, ett bildgalleri och en dagbok. Det finns även ett forum, där medlemmarna kan diskutera med varandra om allt mellan himmel och jord. Det som skiljer vårt community från andra är att medlemmarna även kan lägga upp bilder och beskrivningar på saker de vill sälja, tipsa om och söka efter musikevenemang, och de kan också få sina demolåtar spelade i vår webbradio. Designmässigt har vi försökt förmedla en känsla som ska få användarna att uppleva att sidan är levande..

Ett lands lagstiftning återspeglar nationella värderingar, värdemoralen. EU-samarbetet baseras delvis på medlemsstaternas gemensamma nytta av fri rörlighet av arbetskraft, nyttomoral, därför skall hinder för denna fria rörlighet undanröjas. EU-medlemsstaternas nationella lagstiftning är underordnad EG-rätten (inklusive EG-domstolens rättspraxis). EU-medlemsstaternas lagsystem skall harmoniseras med EG-rätten. Skulle nationell lag stå i konflikt med EG-rätten har den senare företräde.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att klargöra vad som kan utläsas i lagtext och praxis om arbetsgivarens rehabiliteringsansvar för arbetstagare. Uppsatsen är rättsvetenskaplig och utgår från rättsdogmatisk metod. Arbetsgivaren har förstahandsansvaret för att utreda en arbetstagares rehabiliteringsbehov. Genomgående i rättsfallen kan det utläsas att koncentration ska ligga på arbetstagarens arbetsförmåga. Rehabiliteringsutredningen som arbetsgivaren är skyldig att upprätta, ska ligga till grund för en prövning av vilka åtgärder som kan vidtas på arbetsplatsen.

This report is the result of an evaluation of a project, conducted by five regional libraries. Through a training course the project should inspire small and medium sized enterprises to use modern information technology and Internet when searching for information. To evaluate the project, qualitative interviews were conducted with five librarians and quantitative questionnaires were distributed to all the course participants. The evaluation shows that the project goals were met, apart from the number of course participants, which was much lower than anticipated. It also shows that the project resulted in an increase in information technology and competence at the libraries, and that the course participants profit from their increased knowledge in their daily work..
