This thesis aims to spread some light over the phenomena of gender construction in the upper secondary school. The background of this thesis is the gender gap in education.

The question is how these gender roles ? and specifically masculinity ? are constructed.

The building and plant sectors represent a large part of Sweden?s energy use. Putting energy requirements in public procurement as a tool for reducing energy consumption in the building and plant sectors is therefor an opportunity that operators can take advantage of.

The analysis was made with respect to if the energy requirements corresponded to the parts with large energy use in building and plant projects and also in which way energy requirements in procurement are written in the contract.

The Latvian building company Laval un Partneri Ltd (Laval) posted Latvian construction workers at the rebuilding of a school in Vaxholm in autumn 2004. Because the company refused to sign a collective agreement with Svenska Byggnadsarbetareförbundet (Byggnads), which is the Swedish trade union for constructions workers, Byggnads put the construction site under a boycott. Next Laval sued Byggnads for damages in the Swedish Labour Court (AD) because Laval considers the boycott as well as Byggnad´s demand that Laval signs a collective agreement incompatible with EC Law. AD has now demanded a preliminary ruling from the European Court of Justice (ECJ). While waiting for the preliminary ruling from the ECJ, several important questions of principle stand unanswered.

Internetfenomenet ?Distributed Denial of Service?, förkortat DDoS, beskrivs ofta som ett av de största hoten mot Internet idag. Genom att utnyttja den grundläggande strukturen i kommunikation mellan nätverk och datorer kan kriminella blockera och stänga ute webbplatser och -tjänster från användare, samtidigt som det är mycket svårt för offret och myndigheter att någonsin identifiera den eller de skyldiga. Enorma globala nätverk av ovetande människors infekterade datorer fjärrstyrs till att utföra angrepp mot alla sorters organisationer på Internet med olika motiv, som finansiella, politiska eller för ren vandalism. Syftet med det här arbetet är att göra en dagsaktuell kartläggning över läget kring DDoS-angrepp och titta på statistik över de mest förekommande angreppstyperna, och se om den nyare publicerade forskningen kan svara på de pågående och framträdande trender som kan ses.

Title: Kvarteret Tvättstugan, an apartment building with massive wood construction. A thesis about acoustic and fire requirements and a comparison of energy and moisture aspects. Earlier restrictions in the Swedish legislation have resulted that only a small percentage of the apartment buildings that have been built are designed with a massive wood construction. It has been allowed to build unrestricted with wood since 1994 as long as the function of requirements are fulfilled. This change in the rules together with the great environmental benefits of wood has led to that more companies choose to build apartment buildings with wood. One of these companies is Folkhem Production AB.

Under de senaste åren finns en ökad uppmärksamhet i att kunna förutspå konkurs och andra former av ekonomiska kriser. Vissa forskare menar att konkursprediktion har varit huvudforskningsämne inom redovisning och finans sedan Altmans studie från 1968. Under åren har flera modeller vuxit fram och tidigare forskning har påvisat att konkurs kan förutspås med en hög grad av tillförlitlighet.Denna uppsats har som utgångspunkt Altmans studie från 1968. 66 företag har undersökts i tre år mellan åren 2000 och 2010, varav hälften av företagen har inlett konkurs och den resterande hälften är så kallade friska företag (ej konkurs). Detta i syfte för att undersöka om Altmans konkurspredektionsmodell Z??-score kan appliceras på svenska företag inom service och informationsteknikbranschen.De 33 friska företagen har jämförts mot de 33 konkursförsatta företagen och sedan sammanslagits för en total procentuell klassificering.Vår studie visar att 14 av 33 konkurssatta företag visar tecken på konkurs ett år innan konkurs inleddes.
