The intent with this paper is to investigate the medieval habitation in central Old Uppsala. This time-period has over the years been neglected. Therefore I wish to summarize and ana-lyze the medieval habitation to see what can be said about its continuity, and also to investi-gate why it is located in certain areas.Due to the amount of source material I have limited my investigation area to the central Old Uppsala. It is possible that this limitation will affect the result of the research but without the limitations the investigation area would have been too large to handle.The source material has been collected from excavation reports and the summarized. My theory is material culture and material agency.

Företaget Caretech har som avsikt att utveckla en modul för överföring av puls, blodtryck och eventuella framtida givare via deras befintliga patientlarmsystem (trygghetslarm). Detta för att möjliggöra central övervakning av patientstatus vad det gäller puls och blodtryck. För att åstadkomma detta krävs ett interface mellan Caretechs system och på marknaden befintliga givare för puls och blodtryck. Innehållet i rapporten beskriver de delar av projektet som Caretech anser kan vara publika. Interfacet skall helst byggas med komponenter som är kända och använda av Caretech i deras övriga produktsortiment.

Warehouses are a key aspect of modern supply chains and play a vital role in the success or failure of businesses today. Figures from the USA indicate that the capital- and operating costs of warehouses represent about 22 % of a company?s logistics costs while figures from Europe indicate 25 % (Baker & Canessa, 2009).

The European Union is originally an economic organization that has developed into including more social and cultural questions. These questions are especially important when the Union expands with so many different cultures and traditions to take into concideration.I have from an identity perspective studied the relation between the European Union and the candidate country of Turkey. Using theories including the Other I have discussed the relationship between us (Europe) and the Other (Turkey) and Turkey's possibilites to become a member of the Union. My conclusion will include a discussion on the basis of three dimensions; History, Economy/Politics and Religion. I believe there are hindrances for Turkey to become a member of the European Union.
