Allteftersom forskningen inom Human Computer interaction (HCI) fortskrider
konstrueras det allt fler innovativa sätt att interagera med spelkonsoller.
Då fler sätt att interagera med spelkonsoller utvecklas förbättras även
förutsättningarna för spelbranschen att öka interaktionen i spelen. Den senaste
generationen av spelkonsoller har kommit fram med egna lösningar och innovativa
sätt att öka spelupplevelsen och interaktionen. Nintendo Wii har t.ex. en
rörelsesensor som reagerar på rörelserna av handkontrollen, och Xbox Kinect
reagerar med hjälp av en kamera som läser av kroppens rörelser och Playstation
Move reagerar på en kombination av en kamera och en kontroll med sensorer.
Handkontrollens design har inte förändrats mycket under de senaste
konsol-generationerna om man bortser från Nintendo Wii som formade sin kontroll
som en stav.

Skarven : ? Produktutveckling av en oljedimavskiljare
This thesis is a product development project that was performed at Alfa Laval Tumba AB. In the past Alfa Laval have manufactured gas separators for engines where gas flows were cleaned from oil. A new business area for this kind of technology has shown to be the manufacturing industry where oil mist has to be separated from the vented air. Therefore a new and bigger design is needed to be able to handle the greater gas flows. A product like that would be a strong competitor on the market when the maintenance would be low in comparison to today?s equipment.During the project several concept suggestions were developed using customer interviews and research as input.
Ip-telefoni med Skype som ett alternativ till PSTN för privatanvändare
The project is a practical and theoretical test of IP telephony with Skype in
order to form a base for a comparison between IP-Telephony with Skype and the
Public Switched Telephony Network (PSTN). PSTN is the common standard that most
of us use for telephony today. The objective for the study is to simplify the
choice between PSTN and IP-Telephony for the Swedish private customer user
group.
The project is supposed to answer the following questions.
- How easy is it to start using IP-telephony with Skype?
- How is the quality of IP-telephony compared to PSTN?
- Are all services provided by PSTN available and accessible using the
IP-solution?
- How are the usability and the availability of support with IP telephony?
- Is IP-telephony a cheaper solution and in that case under which circumstances?
Within the project a collection of practical and theoretical tests have been
performed to be able to form an opinion on the IP-solution in the following
areas, installation, function, quality, usability, costs, accessibility and
security.
In order to study usability, a test group of ten persons have been used to
evaluate the usability of the system.
Förändrad interaktion, förändrat värde? : En kvalitativ studie om värdeskapande vid mänsklig och teknisk interaktion
The progress in the field of technology is often described as massive and its development has had a great impact on the social development (Vetenskapsrådet, 2012). As a result of the digital evolution, there has been a change in the way customer and company interact (Normann, 2011). The traditional way for players to interact with each other required an interaction human to human (ibid), a mode of interaction that now can be replaced or supplemented by todays technology and often Internet-based solutions (Salomonson et al., 2013). These technological solutions, the technical interaction, are often referred to as self-service systems. These systems enables the customer to carry out the tasks previously performed by the company (Hilton and Hughes, 2013).
Kulturen och kapitalet Hur, vad och varför ett antal män läser
This thesis deals with the leisure-time reading of fourteen men with two different occupations, teachers of technology and directors of companies. The main reasons for writing the thesis are that very little is written about mens reading habits and also statistics that tell that mens reading decline regardless of educational level. The purpose has been to compare the reading and relations to literature between the two groups of men and to find out if any differences have to do with factors such as social background or age. The questions we have asked our collected data has been what, how and why the men read. We have tried not to investigate the work-related reading although we are aware of the difficulty in separating this from the leisure-time reading.
W3C Geolocation API ur ett utvecklarperspektiv
The goal of this thesis is to investigate the W3C Geolocation API from a
developer?s perspective, focused on whether it makes development of
location-based applications more accessible to developers. This has been
investigated by looking at available ways to locate, possible uses, the
functionality offered, the necessary level of prior knowledge needed for a
developer and requirements on developer tools.
This has been achieved through studies in relevant areas, a thorough
introduction to W3C Geolocation API functionality, and by using the API to
develop two different location-based applications as a demonstration. Testing
of applications, on different platforms and in different environments, in
conjunction with investigation of the rest of the material has shown that W3C
Geolocation API in many ways actually makes development of location-based
applications more accessible for developers. The API also provides fully
adequate functionality and quality to meet the requirements for development of
both simple and very advanced location-based applications.
Målet med denna uppsats är att undersöka W3C Geolocation API ur ett
utvecklarperspektiv, fokuserat på om den gör utveckling av positionsbaserade
applikationer mer tillgänglig för utvecklare.
Ledarskapsprogram för innovation
Since the 28thof May the project to develop an internal Innovation Leadership Program (ILP)on Accenture has been running and came to an end in November the same year. The taskwas formed into a master thesis and given to two students at the Royal Institute ofTechnology in Sweden.Since the start the content and structure of the ILP has been established based on the resultsof a theoretical study, a gap analysis and an external and internal benchmarking. The theoreticalstudy focused on articles, books and lectures about innovation, creativity and pedagogy. Subjectssuch as leadership, motivation, reflection and coaching were studied as well, but in a smaller scale.The gap analysis consisted of eleven interviews with people from different career levels withinAccenture and the goal was to establish the view of innovation and creativity among the employees.The interviews also asked about the knowledge the participants had about Technology Lab in orderto get insight of how to improve their communication and cooperation with people in client projects.Internally a similar program was studied called Minority Leadership program, whom will not bedescribed further in this report, to get inspiration. The external benchmarking was conducted onStanford and was very successful.
Rum för musik på biblioteket: En fallstudie av Bibliotek 10 i Helsingfors
The aim of this master's thesis is to study how the design of the music library space affects how it is used and its role as an arena for culture. This is done in form of a case study of Library 10 in Helsinki, a public library branch that specializes in music and information technology. The backdrop to the study is the changing context for cultural activity in the information society and the role of public libraries as public space and meeting place. By analyzing the distribution of space in the library, the distribution of functions and artefacts and the spatial use of the room, I interpret the ways in which this distributional logic produces a unique place for music and culture. I discuss the music library design in a space and place perspective, utilizing theoretical tools from cultural geography and the space theories of Henri Lefebvre.

Applikationsintegrering : en analys av metoder och teknik
Abstract In the contemporary world of information technology you find a multitude of applications and systems covering a broad spectrum of areas of need in different companies. One effect of this multitude of programs is the difficulty to make them exchange information with each other or to collaborate, since they are developed by different programming languages for different platforms, with different standards and different data formats. Our aim with this work is to describe how it is possible to tie these programs together to make them actually communicate with each other in order to exchange information, share their native methods and also to become a part of the overall business processes. In this integration task you will, among other things, find different levels of application integration such as data level, method level, application interface level and user interface level integration. Application integration also involves hardware components, called middleware, that facilitate the physical connection between applications.
Analys av framtidens system för hantering av avloppsvatten och matavfall i Eskilstuna
Wastewater treatment is increasingly controlled by the Swedish environmental quality objectives, adopted by the Swedish parliament. There is a need for a sewage system that can fulfill stringent requirements concerning the environment, recycling and resource use and hygiene. Additional environmental aspects in recent years are the impact of climate change, new knowledge about the effects of pharmaceuticals in water, the need for improved wastewater treatment and increased recycling of nutrients to agriculture. This report has, from a future scenario of the year 2050, analyzed seven different systems for wastewater treatment and treatment of compostable biowaste from households in Eskilstuna. A future scenario was chosen based on that within a forty year period new challenges may arise which can result in higher demands on sewage treatment than those we see today. Another reason why the future scenario was established is that changes in wastewater treatment systems are slow to establish. The analysis is mainly focused on the economical aspects but environmental aspects such as emissions to receiving waters and potential recycling of plant nutrients has also been evaluated briefly.
Skolan i universum - att förklara det ofattbara : Astronomiundervisningen i skolan på 1900-talet
This is a study in how astronomy has been taught and is being taught in Swedish schools from 1905 to this date with an emphasis on the latest 30 years. It concerns the regulations and methodical recommendations/curricula for Swedish junior high school/Swedish Comprehensive school for the years 1905, 1933, 1955, 1958, 1962, 1969, 1980 and 1994. The matter of integrating astronomy with other subjects and different methodical approaches is also considered. The problem with textbooks written only for one subject when the teacher tries to integrate subjects is emphasised.Physics textbook analysis shows that astronomy teaching has over the years developed, from being based on observations, to become more and more theoretical. It also shows that the amount of practical exercises has been fairly constant in physics textbooks during the seventies end eighties but now in the nineties varies a lot from textbook to textbook. The amount of liberty the textbook gives the pupil in finding knowledge and answers himself in the practical parts of astronomy was at its lowest during the seventies.

Systematisering av information på företag en fallstudie
The purpose of this paper is to investigate how a small company manages its information, primarily the organization of digital documents. The two dominating themes are classification and information politics, the former in the context of a corporate environment and the latter to help us to describe the situation at the company. The method used has involved observation of the company's current computer network structure and also interviews with six employees at different levels in various departments at the company. The result of our investigation has been the realization that, although logical structure is important when organizing documents in a digital environment, it is also necessary to have rules regarding its implementation..
