Att bygga legitimitet i en värld av förändring : En studie av hur företag kan hantera en ny standard för intäktsredovisning
Intäkter är ett stort och viktigt område inom redovisning. Redovisningen av intäkter är imånga fall problematisk eftersom intäkterna behandlas annorlunda i olika standarder och iolika delar av världen. International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) och FinancialAccounting Standards Board (FASB) arbetar sedan 2002 med ett harmoniseringsprojekt somsyftar till att ta fram en heltäckande standard för intäkter som ska kunna applicerasinternationellt. Utkast till den nya standarden har presenterats av IASB, vilket har fått mångareaktioner från olika företag i olika branscher. Den del av standarden som fått mest kritik frånföretagen är den ökade mängden tilläggsupplysningar som kommer krävas i företagensfinansiella rapporter.

Torkventilation vid kartongtillverkning : En fallstudie på Fiskeby Board AB
Pappers- och massaindustrin stod år 2010 för 52 procent av den svenska industrins energianvändning, vilket motsvarade 76 TWh. Detta gör branschen intressant ur ett energieffektiviseringsperspektiv då små åtgärder kan leda till stora besparingar.Fiskeby Board AB är ett företag som tillverkar kartong baserad på returfiber. Då torkning- samt bestrykningsprocessen står för 2/3 av företagets energibehov föreligger intresse att använda energin på ett bättre sätt för att minska energibehovet och därav minska sina kostnader. Syftet med denna rapport var således att genomföra en energikartläggning av tork- samt bestrykningspartiet och utifrån resultaten presentera åtgärder för att minska energibehovet. Arbetet utfördes genom mätningar av lufttemperaturer och flöden, beräkningar, litteraturstudier samt intervjuer.
Tidskriftsomslag - hur anpassas de till målgruppen? : Sju tidskrifter med olika målgrupper
Syftet med denna uppsats är att ta reda på hur tidskriftsredaktioner utformar sina omslag efter målgrupp. Detta har undersökts genom kvalitativa intervjuer med chefredaktörer, art directors och redaktörer vid sju olika tidskriftsredaktioner. Dessa resultat har kompletterats med en analys av 19 olika tidskriftsomslag. Analysen är genomförd som en slags överblick där de olika omslagen granskats utifrån teorier om de olika element som förekommer på ett tidskriftsomslag. Dessa har sedan sammanställts i tabeller där eventuella likheter och skillnader framträder tydligare.Resultaten från denna undersökning visar att tidningar som måste sälja bra i butik alla utformar sina omslag på liknande sätt.
Tidsstudier i kalvuppfödning :
Swedish agriculture stands in front of big changes the whole time. As a milking producer you have to adapt and develop the company to these changes and find the best solution. This potential is easy to find if you compare your company with other similar companies. Labour cost is the biggest cost in milking production after the cost for food. Today it is rather easy to measure how many hours per cow different system of cow houses needs, but we do not know so much about how many hours it takes to breed a calf.
To learn more about the labour time with the calves during the first time after the calf was born, I made time studies on five different farms with calf hutches, automatic milk system, large calf boxes, and smaller calf boxes with teat buckets.
Uppleva eller leva upp till? : En studie om hur gymnasieelever upplever prestationskrav i idrott och hälsa.
AimThe purpose of the study was to investigate how upper secondary school students experience performance demands during their physical education and health classes (PE-classes).

Do students feel unfairly treated by the physical education and health teacher during PE-classes?MethodSeven upper secondary schools in Stockholm?s administrative district were randomly selected to participate in the survey. The principals were contacted for further information and to set a date for performing the survey. The project leaders were present during the days the surveys were taken by students in the social science and natural science programs.
Kronisk mitralisinsufficiens hos hund : samband mellan graden av klaffinsufficiens och det arteriella blodtrycket
Myxomatous mitral valve disease is a common disease in older dogs of small- to medium-size breeds. The mitral valve, and less commonly the tricuspid valve may be affected which causes them to leak blood from the ventricle to the atrium of the heart during systole. With increasing severity of mitral valve leakage the forward stroke volume ejected into the aorta decreases, which may lead to an increase in blood pressure in the pulmonary vein resulting in pulmonary edema. A decrease in cardiac output may lead to a decrease in blood pressure, but the body may respond in order to normalize the blood pressure. Franzén showed in 2007 that the systolic blood pressure was increased in dogs with severe mitral insufficiency.
"Yes! Man kan bli kranförare." : - En studie av manligt tolkningsföreträde i svensk inrikesnyhetsjournalistik
The free press is an invaluable part of the democratic society and a pillar stone in the creation of ideas, opinions and norms.

With this view of media along with the gender system provided by Yvonne Hirdman as a framework, this study intends to examine the gender representation in Swedish domestic news journalism. The study consists of a quantitative analysis of two major Swedish morning papers, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet, where the gender representation regarding journalists, main news sources and pictures are being accounted for.

Användning av satellitdata för lokalisering av skogsområden där lövröjning bedöms angelägen : en analys av användbarheten med fjärranalys som hjälpmedel till röjningsrådgivning
This master thesis project is a part of a project called ?Järboprojektet? at the regional board of forestry, the district of Gästrikland. The project will give answers to questions regarding if an analysis of satellite images can be used to contact and inform landowners of the located areas where precommercial thinning is useful. The whole project is a part of the National Board of Forestrys IT-stake where the analysis of satellite images will, at the latitudes possible, be adapted to each district in purpose to identify these areas in need of precommercial thinning. This master thesis project is based on a field inventory of identified objects where precommercial thinning is useful.
Oreglerad=Fri? En studie om Läkarkliniken
The discrepancy in the rights for healthcare between undocumented migrants and the citizen in Sweden is a prerequisite for the existence of Läkarkliniken.

Dödsfallsutredningar : med oklar bakgrund och avsikt hos barn och ungdomar
Violence against children and particularly the ?Bobby Case? in spring 2006 initiated an unprecedented debate in the Swedish media about child maltreatment and child murder. There are however some children whose death causes never will be solved, and some of these cases are erroneously classified as something else.The present survey is commissioned by the Swedish Rescue Services Agency and the Swedish Centre for Lessons Learned from Incidents & Accidents, and will serve as the basis for a children safety council which will be established 2006.In this survey the answer to the question how deaths among children and youth under the age of 18 years caused by accidents, suicides and violence are investigated when the background and the intention is uncertain is elaborated. A statistical report of how many deaths are classified as uncertain intent is given in the survey. The statistics shows that 26 children and youths under the age of 18 have died from uncertain intent between the years 1997-2003.There are many purposes to a death investigation, for example to determine the cause and manner of death.

Marknadsföring, relationer och nätverk hos forskningsbibliotek - en beskrivning och analys
The major aim of the thesis is to describe the networks, relations and marketing of some university libraries and their customers in the year 2000. I illustrate how these issues interact and whether they have changed due to the recent development of technology and if so, how. The thesis is based on interviews with two directors of libraries and two librarians at two different libraries. A small survey with 16 questionnaires has also been performed in order to get a more general view on librarians' opinions in these questions. The thesis mainly shows that the networks in which the respondents take part primarily exist in the library sphere and towards the universities.
