When constructing an industrial- or hall building, the most common framework materials thatis used are wood, steel or concrete. Due to an assignment from Byggnadstekniska Byrån ABhas a document been created that makes it possible to investigate how the final costs is af-fected by gapes in between elements and which used foundation. And this with steel as thematerial. The purpose with this essay is to investigate which is the most well fitted materialwhen constructing an industrial- or hall building wood, steel or concrete. Information aboutthe different materials has been collected by litterateurs and by different internet pages.

The final thesis named Tracking in Sensor Networks was created by the company Instrument control Sweden. The thesis work is to create a plug-in to an already developed software pro- gram, SkyView. Via the software program one should be able to control an IP-camera from AXIS, model 215 PTZ, with the appropriate protocol over a network.  An Application Programming Interface, API, was used to easily control the camera through SkyView. The interface is called VAPIX and is used to all cameras from AXIS.

There are different types of risk, examples include credit risk, liquidity risk and financial risk. In DeMarzo & Berk (2011, s. 293) is a study presented which is based on the yield of different types of financial assets between 1925 and 2009, the study show that a high risk gave substantially higher reward. With the study as a background, it is interesting to study practical risk management within participants of the financial markets of Sweden. In risk management there are several theories about whether risk can be calculated and analyzed with scientific methods in practice.

AbstractThis study is about describing the pre- internationalization phase and to studycompanies that are in this phase. We are trying to capture characteristics of decisionmakersin the pre- internationalization phase, to then compare the theoretical materialwith empirical material from case companies. Then in the final stages of the thesis, wewant to account for if we managed to answer our research questions. In the method, wegive a description of the approach selected in conjunction with the study. The study isqualitative and we used both primary and secondary data, with a deductive approach.The theory chapter will consider the most relevant theories that are related to the topic,which is internationalization, pre-internationalization, international entrepreneurship,and the psychology behind personalities, attitudes, and how these can affect theorganization's strategic decisions.

Redovisningsområdet bearbetas ständigt för att moderniseras och förbättras. Som ett led i harmoniseringsprocessen mellan IFRS och US GAAP håller IASB och FASB på att arbeta med ett gemensamt projekt för att förändra regelverket för redovisning av intäkter. Samarbetet tog fart år 2002 och sedermera år 2008 publicerade man tillsammans ett diskussionsunderlag för allmänheten att kommentera. Arbetet fortskred och år 2010 var man följaktligen redo att utfärda ett förslag till standard; ett förslag som kom att revideras och ges ut i ny upplaga år 2011.Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vad revisionsbyråer och normgivande organ har för åsikter om 2011 års förslag till standard gällande redovisning av intäkter från kontrakt med kunder. Vi vill också jämföra dessa åsikter de båda grupperna emellan för att se om de skiljer sig åt.

Detta arbete behandlar internetbedrägeriers utveckling i Sverige mellan åren 2006 och 2011.Syftet med arbetet är att ge en bild av hur internetbedrägerier har utvecklats genom åren, vilka orsaker som kan ligga bakom och vilka åtgärder som kan förhindra att internetbedrägerier begås. Fokus i detta arbete ligger på privatpersoners utsatthet av internetbedrägerier, och till detta ligger Nationella trygghetsundersökningens (NTU) statistik som underlag. Frågeställningarna i detta arbete är: Hur har internetbedrägerierna utvecklats mellan åren 2006 och 2011? Vilka orsaker ligger bakom utvecklingen av internetbedrägerier? Vilket motiv använder gärningspersonerna sig av för att bedra via internet? Vilka åtgärder kan implementeras för att försvåra internetbedrägerier?För att uppnå syftet och kunna besvara frågeställningarna är arbetet baserat på en statistisk genomgång av officiell kriminalstatistik och NTU. Som ett komplement till statistiken har semi-strukturerade intervjuer med två poliser med god insyn i internetbedrägerier genomförts.

The Common Agricultural Policy has been a burning topic for debate for severaldecades. According to the CAP:s opponents it's effects include pollution, market distortionsand not least a huge expense for the European union.In this study we seek to explain why the CAP has remained almostunreformed since it's constitution in the 1950:s. The means by which we do so isa case study where we analyze the CAP by using three different theories; liberalinter-governmentalism, realistic trade theory and new institutionalism.In the final chapter we conclude that the theories complement each other. Newinstitutionalism explains the rigidity of the CAP. The liberal perspective explainsthe origin and the logic behind the policy whereas the realistic point of view putsthe policy in the light of an international economic theory and recognizes nationalpolicy makers roll in the inflexibility of the CAP..

Recent research in classrooms has often had its focus on the pupil, the individual, and not on the different groups of students that exist. In a classroom there are normally several different groupings, each one having its own personal attitude towards the current lesson. If there had been more research we would find it easier to understand why pupils sometimes behave the way they do.The purpose of this essay is to analyze how pupils` social relations create groupings. Furthermore I intend to investigate how and why pupils show their belonging to a certain group.The two questions of the essay are:1. How pupils? social relations appear in a classroom?2.

Ökade uttag av avverkningsrester som grenar och toppar (GROT) och markskonande åtgärder vid drivning är ett aktuellt ämne i dagens skogsverige. Stora Enso har utformat drivningskonceptet RMSA (Rätt Metod Slutavverkning), vars syfte framförallt består i att med en bra planering och ett gemensamt arbetssätt minimera markskador och få, generellt sett, ett högre uttag av GROT. Enligt Stora Enso förväntas konceptet även resultera i en högre produktivitet och bättre arbetsmiljö. Analys på huruvida medelskotningsavståndet och bränsleförbrukningen påverkas av RMSA har tidigare gjorts. Men studier som analyserar GROT-uttaget har inte genomförts, då konceptet är relativt nytt. Studiens syfte var således att analysera hur volymen uttagen GROT påverkades av införande av RMSA i jämförelse mot den tidigare konventionella metoden.

The purpose of this study is to see how adolescent students in high school formulate their thoughts of death and if a belief in transcendent existence affects their thoughts. The study was done on two separate schools, one municipal school and one private religious school, in minor cities in Sweden. The method used was qualitative inquiries and the amount of participants was four from each school, eight in total. The result of the study showed that six out of eight participants had a belief of a transcendent existence, three from the municipal school and three from the religious private school. The result also showed that the participants from the municipal school that had a belief in an transcendent existence also had a belief in a form of ?afterlife?, this was however not reflected on the students in the religious private school where result showed that one out of four had a belief in a form of ?afterlife? and three view death as the final stage of existence..

The purpose of this thesis has been about processing an already existing folder for a tax funded organization which is also the employer for this mission ? Expectrum. The reason is that both Expectrum themselves and the recievers of the folder are unhappy with the existing material. The critic that has been directed to Expectrum is that the recievers have trouble understanding what Expectrum is and what they do. Based on qualitative methods such as interviews and text analysis I?ve been able to answer my questions for this thesis.

In modern society in terms of economics and environmental impact, it is important to ensure that a company is as energy efficient as possible to reduce the amount of energy used. About 10 TWh of electricity used annually to pump drives in Swedish industry. Therefore, pumping system has great potential for energy savings.The objective of this report was to determine how much energy and money that can be saved with the insertion of variable speed drive to six pumps on Bleach plant 4 in Skutskär Mill. The work was performed with electrical measurements during one week, analysis of pump curves and the compilation of production data over a year.The results show that four of these six pumps were profitable and yielded an annual saving of 1172 MWh of electricity and 560 000 SEK. With an economic lifetime of 10 years and a discount rate of 6.8% the final result for the entire life-cycle savings became 3 355 000 SEK.

 This paper is made on behalf of Statistics and Research Åland, ÅSUB. The aim is to explain the turnover for companies in Åland, with appropriate variables.

The data used is from the period January 1996 to June 2008.Different regression models for the turnover are tried and explanatory variables are selected by use of stepwise regression, backward elemination and forward selection. The final model includes activity indices for Sweden and Finland, the introduction of the Euro, tourists from Finland and an autoregressive component of order one .

Who is the most typical woman in ELLE Sweden (2013)? In this study we investigated the typical woman represented in the Swedish fashion magazine ELLE (2013) for women. Does a typical woman exist in the magazine at all and if so ? in what words and roles is she described in? How is this woman perceived in relation to the male gender? Based on the theory of constructionism; that the gender (i.e. What is female versus male) is constructed in the society and that media has an affect on our physical and psychological well being as well as our behavior and thoughts, the investigation of the female gender representation in women magazines, was of great importance to us.
