From underwater boat to submarine ? The development of the Swedish submarine service 1945-1960 The scope of this essay is the development of the Swedish submarine service during the period 1945-1960. The aim is to answer the following questions:- What kind of new technology did Sweden acquire when salvaging the German type XXI submarine off Gothenburg at the end of World War II?- In what respect did this technology differ from that of the Royal Swedish Navy and did it subsequently contribute to the tactical and operational development?- What tactical and operational development was accomplished between 1945-1960?The timeframe, 1945-1960, was chosen since this is when the analysis of the salvaged type XXI submarine and related effects was conducted. Furthermore, it is also during this time that the Swedish submarine service is beginning to evolve as a result of the new knowledge mentioned above and the experiences made by both the allies and the Germans during World War II.The theoretical framework primarily refers to the theories on naval warfare by Sir Julian Corbett.

It is self evident that our society is an information one. This is true from the things we see around us.The world is now a global village.It just take seconds for communication to be established from one part of the globe to another.What a tremendous achievement for information technology.Among the recent developments of information technology is the scientific wizardary of cyber medicine.The internet has definitely revolutionalised the healthcare industry. Many people in developed countries of the world seek medical information, advice or even buy drugs via the internet.So many websites rise every now and then claiming to provide various medical assistance to patients. But the application of information technology to medicine poses some ethical problems today. It is because of this that cyber medicine attracts my attention in this research.With this research, I hope to offer some recommendations for a morally acceptable cyber medicine .This will help to some extent in solving this all important problem ofcyber medicine for the good of the health care industry and the society at large..

Titel: Om personalförmåner motiverar de anställda Författare: Niklas Ambrus & Peter Lundström Handledare: Klaus Solberg Söilen Institution: Institutionen för Ekonomi, Management och Samhällsvetenskap, Blekinge Tekniska Högskola Kurs: Kandidatarbete i företagsekonomi, 10 poäng. Hypotes: Personalförmåner motiverar inte de anställda Syfte: Med den här studien vill vi klargöra om det finns ett samband mellan anställdas motivation på revisionsbyråer och deras personalförmåner. Vi vill också utreda vad som ger de anställda hög arbetstillfredsställelse och motivation. Metod: Vi har valt att göra en kvantitativ surveyundersökning med frågeformulär som redskap för att samla in empirisk data. Formulären har sedan genererat statistisk data som analyserats och jämförts med de teorier vi valt att använda.

The business potential of software defined radio (SDR) technology is studied by evaluating whether or not its characteristics correspond to those particular to a disruptive technology. The maturity of the SDR technology concept is illuminated by analyzing the opinions and perspectives of a selection of representatives for different stakeholders in the wireless communications market. Characteristics as, for example, the degree of consensus about the utility of SDR technology and the awareness of features and limitations are studied by application of the theory of technological frames. This theory helps us understand how and when technology evolution takes place. Finally we describe the value network structures of some potentially viable application areas for SDR and suggest some possible business opportunities based on SDR technology.This thesis is carried out as a case study and the research data is obtained from secondary sources, such as literature and Internet publications as well as interviews with people well experienced in the field of wireless communications.

Science and technology has been the bedrock of human growth and dynamism. Man has over the years distinguished his existence from all other beings by his ability to champion and fashion his existence. Among his tools is biotechnology which actually attenuates the fears of aging and death.Human reproductive cloning stands out as one of the means through which biotechnology plans to achieve this perfect existence for man. Technological advancements in the field of biotechnology are now in the threshold of human procreation.Human reproductive cloning is seen as an assisted method of reproduction which creates a newborn that is genetically identical to another human being.Human reproductive cloning as a technology and as a means of reproduction is not without its pros and cons. In as much as the technology promises to mention but a few, hope for the infertile couples and single parents, as well as the hope of reproduction without passing on hereditary diseases; it at the same time beeps some flashes of worry.

This thesis work is intended to analyze whether the municipalities has a need for the new technology of mobile mapping.Mobile mapping consists of the technologies of laser scanning, photographing and positioning of streets and roads in city environment and in the countryside. When these technologies are operating together a georeferenced three-dimensional image model is created, which has specific coordinates that states its position on the surface of the earth. Thanks to the laser scanning process even measuring can be performed in this model.The municipal sector consists of many different departments which use visual spatial information. These departments are an interesting target group for this system. Specific departments within the municipal sector, which we considered were the most suitable, have been selected.

The attention on environmental issues has never been as huge as today. The climate is changing and more and more evidence suggest that the cause behind climate changes is an increase of carbondioxide into the atmosphere. The increase in turn is considerd to be an act of human activity. Therefore some companies have decided to become climate neutral and implement information technology in their business in order to reduce their emissions. This thesis has three aimes: to calculate a small company´s carbondioxide emissions, study whether or not information technology could help to reduce these emissions and furthermore find out why some companies decided to become climate neutral and describe the concept climate neutral.

Mitt projekt har gått ut på att producera en ljudberättelse för barn utifrån en befintlig utgiven bok. Jag har varit i kontakt med flertalet svenska bokförlag för att hitta ett lämpligt material att arbeta med samt har kommit överens med ett av dem att få ta del av deras utgivna verk, och bearbeta det enligt de överenskommelser vi arbetat fram tillsammans. Jag har sökt och sållat bland otaliga röstskådespelare runtom i landet efter de röstkaraktärer jag eftersökt för rollerna i ljudberättelsen och spelat in och handlett dem jag ansåg vara passande i Studio NetPort i Karlshamn. Jag har skapat egenkomponerad musik och ljudeffekter till ljudberättelsen, och spelat in dem både i Studio Netport samt i min egen hemstudio. Idén med projektet var att eftersträva en kommersiell produktion så mycket som bara möjligt, vilket jag till största del har gjort även om slutresultatet i detta projekt inte skulle bli det så har produktions- arbetet utifrån min sida blivit behandlat precis som om det vore det.

Abstract I have made a Website called ?Art school? for Liljevalchs art Gallery, Culture administration in Stockholm and Culture school in Stockholm. It is with scholarship from these that this Website has been possible. The work whit the ?Art school? started in the autumn of 2005 and ended in May 2006 on distance from Stockholm towards Blekinge technology school in Karlshamn. The Webb place is for the general public, but most for people who have interest in art and for those how want to learn more painting in different mediums. This Websites I name: oil, watercolour, acrylic, coal, gouache, and graphite. On each one of these mediums you?ll get to know about their history, what technique they have, what sort of material you need, practise and tip.

Hypotes: Personalförmåner motiverar inte de anställda Syfte: Med den här studien vill vi klargöra om det finns ett samband mellan anställdas motivation på revisionsbyråer och deras personalförmåner. Vi vill också utreda vad som ger de anställda hög arbetstillfredsställelse och motivation. Metod: Vi har valt att göra en kvantitativ surveyundersökning med frågeformulär som redskap för att samla in empirisk data. Formulären har sedan genererat statistisk data som analyserats och jämförts med de teorier vi valt att använda. Surveyundersökningen har genomförts på fem revisionsbyråer i östra Blekinge med fem eller fler anställda. Slutsats: I vår undersökning fann vi att personalförmåner inte motiverar de anställda, utan ses som en faktor för trivsel på arbetsplatsen. Vi fann alltså inget direkt samband mellan personalförmåner och motivation hos de anställda på revisionsbyråerna, utan det är andra faktorer som arbetsuppgiftens värde i sig, utvecklingsmöjligheter och lön som ger arbetstillfredsställelse och motivation.

This is an essay about gated communities and their impact on society. The key questions of my essay are: why people choose to live in gated communities; how the city is impacted by gated communities and what the difference concerning the reasons and impact of gated communities in Florida and Sweden is, and what this difference might depend on. I am using postmodern urbanism as a starting point, and I look closer on Edward J. Soja?s theories about the postmodern metropolis.

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera upplevda tillväxtutmaningar utifrån en företagsledares perspektiv. Genom fokus på tillväxtfasen skildras omfattningen och betydelsen av de hinder som tidigare forskning behandlat. Metod: Studien har en teoretisk grund som vi har använt oss av när vi genomfört individuella intervjuer med utvalda företagsledare i gasellföretag. Dessa teorier har även använts som grund till analysen. Det teoretiska samt empiriska materialet är sammanställt under respektive kapitel. Slutsatser: Det teoretiska materialet påvisar de utmaningar som företag möter under tillväxtfasen. Trots sin starka tillväxt under kort tid har samtliga av de intervjuade gasellföretagen upplevt något av utmaningarna.

This is a report for our thesis that was conducted as a conclusion of our bachelor degree in Business engineering at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). The work is done in cooperation with the firm Navigate Consulting Business Solutions AB.They have their leading expertise in Oracle E-Business Suite and has previously chosen to implement Oracle EBS R12. The modules that are planned to be implemented are general ledger (GL), accounts payable (AP), accounts receivable (AR), project module (PA), purchases, and CRM. For a consulting company like Navigate, it is particularly important to have a simple and effective time reporting process. We were therefore asked to provide new tabs with a decision-making process to determine if Oracle Time & Labor (OTL) is a useful time tracking system for their business.In order to achieve the company´s aim and objective we decided to follow a development method with five different phases.
