We where asked to write a webapplication, with similar functionalityas an existing desktop application. The application can todayrecord sounds from a person, mix it together at the optimal place withanother, similar sound and play back the result.The application used mathematical calculation that the developerswhere not familiar with, therefore it was decided to focus on the partsthat involved recording and playing sound, to pave the way for anyfuture implementation.The follwing prototypes where implemneted:1. Read a sound clip from a file.2. Splicing of two sound clips at different points in the clips.3. Generate the sound of a guitar.The result of this evaluation is that web browsers today are notready for this type of application, but that there is potetial as soonas W3C have standardised the use of a microphone as a source to theexisting DSP functions..

Nowadays, cooperation is necessary and this study tries to illuminate the possibilities and problems about cooperation in fiction between 7 small/midsize farms in Skåne. Conventional Farming is done with grain and sugarbeets as specialization. Calculation of machine costs have been done and compared in the study, both for the farms in thorough and the fictitious operation companies. Business ratios as depreciation/ha, interest/ha and maintenance/ha have been calculated. In this essay we present a proposal about how a practical implementation can be done. In the proposal there is an example how the distribution of work can be done.

I läroplanskommitténs betänkande rörande den nya läroplanen 1994 så skrevs det mycket om lärarens roll som förmedlare av värdegrunden till eleverna, vad det var som läraren skulle förmedla och i viss mån hur det skulle ske. Värdegrundsarbetet skulle ske tematiskt genom skolgången i alla ämnen och inte endast förekomma i ett eget ämne eller i religionskunskapen, som dock behöll en viss särställning rörande arbetet med etik. För att kunna förmedla de önskade värderingarna till eleverna så skulle läraren använda sig av ?den etik som förvaltats av kristen tradition och västerländsk humanism?. Betänkandet behandlar inte vad som menas med detta uttryck, men bifogar en bilaga skriven av Anders Piltz där han försöker att motivera ordavalet och vad kristen tradition innebär.När man jämför den moderna forskningen rörande värdegrundsarbetet i skolan med betänkandet och dess målsättning kan man se att samma värderingar premieras, men att demokratiaspekten har fått en mycket större roll än vad som kanske var meningen, något som kan bero på att demokrati är något som kräver mer tid att lära ut än andra värderingar som är mer naturliga, som tillexempel respekt för andra individers autonomi.

This report is the result of a thesis conducted at the consulting firm Bjerking AB andis the final part of the Bachelor Programme in Construction Engineering at Universityof Uppsala. The work aims to investigate the costs and how the choice of ventilationsystem affects building projects during a long-term period. This report covers costssuch as investment, maintenance and energy but also how they affect residents andbuilders. Building regulations for energy consumption are expected to be tougher;therefore a comparison of two different heat recovery ventilation systems(HRV-system) was made. One system is based on a centrally placed unit that coversthe whole buildings ventilation through vertical shafts.

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka några svensklärares inställning till populärlitteratur, både generellt sett och i undervisningen. Uppsatsförfattarna strävar efter att belysa inställningen till aktuella populärlitterära böcker som läses av ungdomar. Hur förhåller sig lärarna till denna typ av litteratur? Är det något de använder i sin undervisning? Den teoretiska bakgrunden för uppsatsen utgörs av forskning om föreställningar om hög och låg litteratur men också en problematisering av själva begreppet populärlitteratur. Andra aspekter som tas upp är vad som skrivs om litteratur-undervisning i skolans styrdokument samt hur populärlitteraturen har behandlats traditionellt sett inom skolan. Metoden för undersökningen är kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer som genomförs med fem verksamma lärare.

District heating covers around 80 % of the heating demand in apartment buildings and 10 % in single-family homes in Sweden. In the year 2010 the total input of energy to the Swedish district heating grids was about 70 TWh, which corresponds to 11 % of the total energy input to the whole energy system in the country. Through the combined production of heat and power the CHP-plants often reaches an efficiency of 90 % from energy in the fuel to produced heat and power. In order to keep the efficiency high it is important for the owners of the plant to have good knowledge about the plants performance at different operation points. Strängnäs Energi AB initiated this diploma work together with FVB Sverige ab in order to come up with a program for short term planning of the production of heat and power at the company´s CHP-plant.The work consists of three main parts.

I have in my thesis, examined the possibilities in terms of energy for a condominium association.To have an effective and good energy is becoming increasingly important with today's rising electric and oil prices. In my thesis I have used the condominium association Kärralyckan, which is situated in Falkenberg. The buildings at Kärralyckan are built in the mid-1970s, and are heated by electric radiators. The tap water is heated by an electric boiler.Based on that calculation I can show the various energyststem. The different solutions have been developed by contact manufacturers and installers through phone calls and e-mail.According to the results shows that geothermal heating has been a great solution for Kärralyckan.

This bachelor?s thesis is a study that examines cactus groups in Sweden from a heritage conservation perspective. Through interviews and an analysis of both historical and modern literature, the research explores why cactus groups became popular and what is required to preserve those still in existence today. A recurring challenge has been the lack of comprehensive source material, leaving some questions open for further research. The study focuses on four cities?Norrk?ping, Skellefte?, Varberg, and V?xj??that have maintained their cactus groups for nearly a century.

I Sverige finns det idag familjer som har arrangerade äktenskap som en del av sitt traditionella kulturmönster. Några familjer lever enligt denna tradition medan andra tar avstånd från den. Men oavsett hur familjen förhåller sig till traditionen har den en påverkan i familjemedlemmarnas liv och deras inbördes relationer. Studiens målgrupp är flickor som växer upp i sådana familjer. Undersökningens syfte är att belysa dessa flickors syn på arrangerade äktenskap och möjligen få några förklaringar till varför vissa familjer fortsätter att leva enligt detta traditionella kulturmönster även efter exilen i Sverige.

Using interviews conducted within the municipality of Nam Dich, Vietnam, this qualitative study explores how ethnic minority parents and children navigate around the state's supervision in order to preserve their traditional practices of child marriages. Moreover, the research explores the roles and expectations between individuals within an ethnic minority family as a collective unit. Using governmentality supported by the concept of state evasion, culture bearers and empowerment, I argue that understanding child marriage as a phenomenon requires analysis of cultural context. The paper starts with an introduction of the ongoing relation between the Vietnamese state and ethnic minority traditions related to child marriage. While the Vietnamese state ?s modernization projects aim to empower individuals by creating more freedom within the process of marriage and increasing the opportunity for education and work, certain ethnic minority groups want to uphold their cultural ways of marriage when parental arrangement occurs from an early age.

Based on Theodor W. Adorno's theories about the relation between society and lyrics, and critical theories about postmodernism, it can be seen in Bob Hansson's lyrics how he tries on the one hand to write in a modernistic tradition but, on the other, is very influenced by postmodernism which results in a conspicuous self-distance and self-contempt..

The examination has been performed at Bjerking AB, which is an architectural and engineering company. Bjerking AB has the ambition to be a member of Green Building.The Green Building program developed in year 2005 by The European Commission, the program is an environmental system with the aim to improving energy efficiency within the sectors of non-residential buildings. The minimum requirements to participate the program are following: in new-built buildings the calculated energy consumption must be 25 % lower than the requirements in the BBR (Building regulations) and in refurbishment the reduction must be 25 % lower than before the optimization.The aim of this study has been to examine and review the company Bjerking AB's energy efficiency work in the project of building the school/kindergarten S:ta Maria Alsike, where the goal is to get this building Green Building classed. A description of requirements to become a member of the Green Building has also accomplished in the thesis.The methods performed in this study are literature review, searches on the Internet, studies on the project database for facts/values, calculation of energy consumption and interviews of members of the Green Building. The following issues have been dealt with in the report;-          Did the building in the project manage the requirement to achieve an   energy consumption that is 25% lower than the requirements in BBR?-          What technical measures/system was selected in the building?-          What kind of cooperation was the project based on?-          What is required for consultancy companies and real estate owners to become members of the Green Building?The study of the project and calculation of estimated energy consumption in the building, give the result 47 kWh/m2, year.

Kunskap överförs ständigt mellan människor. Inom en organisation är kunskapsöverföringen mellan medarbetarna ofta särskilt strukturerad och i synnerhet om det är inom samma profession. Tyst kunskap är förknippat med viss oklarhet i hur kommunikationen kan gå till och vad som kan kommuniceras. I uppsatsen refereras och jämförs Bertil Rolfs och Bo Göranzons skilda ståndpunkter om den tysta kunskapens natur. Traditionen är för dem båda det verktyg som möjliggör överföring av tyst kunskap.
