Rising complexity in the development of real-time systems has made it crucial to have reusable components and a more flexible way of configuring these components into a coherent system. Aspect-oriented system development (AOSD) is a technique that allows one to put a system?s crosscutting concerns into"modules"that are called aspects. Applying AOSD in real-time and embedded system development one can expect reductions in the complexity of the system design and development. A problem with AOSD in its current form is that it does not support predictability in the time domain.

From an anti-oppressive and a gender perspective, the aim of this paper is to examine whether three English teachers at a comprehensive school in Stockholm make gender conscious selections when selecting novels for their English literature lessons. Through quantitative research, semi-structured interviews and e-mail interviews with these teachers I have attempted to find out if they include both male and female writers when selecting English novels for their students and also what factors affect their selections. I have analyzed the interviews and the quantitative research by using a qualitative and a quantitative content analysis. The theories that I have established my analysis upon are gender theories about the male norm in society, the feminist Simone de Beauvoir?s ideas about the woman as a second gender and the sociologist Raewyn Connell?s gender regimes.

För en tid sedan var det status att vara en del av fittstimmet. Ordet tycktes andas styrka, självständighet och attityd. Även politiker passade på att surfa i vågorna av stimmets strömmar. Feminismen hade anhängare i både det offentliga och hos gemene man (eller kvinna) och det var inget ögonbrynshöjande ställningstagande. Under det senaste decenniet tycks ordet fått en ny laddning och feminismen är inte längre det enda valet i strävan mot jämställdhet.

Background:It is always fascinating to observe the events that affect the stock market, especially as the numbers of influencing factors are so many and various. Political elections are important events in society and affect the corporate environment in different ways depending on which political party that is in power. This brings up the question of whether political elections are important enough to affect the stock market; and it is this question we intend to analyse in this paper.Purpose:The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether political elections affect the stock market and to discuss the reasons for any possible affect that might be found.Procedure:An appropriate and thoroughly tested method to investigate if an event affects the stock market or not, is to do an event study. Subsequently we chose to do an event study on whether the Swedish general elections in 2002 and 2006 affected the Stockholm Stock Exchange. In order to give the analysis more depth we have also chosen to interview people with knowledge of the stock market.

Gunilla Thorgren beskriver i sin bok Grupp 8 & jag hur det var att komma in i Grupp 8, en akademiskt präglad miljö, som för henne framstod som en främmande värld till att börja med.1 Jag läste boken och började fundera över det faktum att det var akademiker som arbetade för en förbättring av arbetarklasskvinnornas tillvaro. Jag ville veta hur det kom sig att det var på det sättet. Vilken inställning hade 70-talets kvinnorörelse till arbetarklassens kvinnor och var arbetarkvinnorna själva överhuvudtaget aktiva i sammanhanget? Det kan också vara intressant att undersöka hur klassperspektivet ser ut i dagens kvinnorörelse med Feministiskt initiativ som en relativt ny organisation i det svenska samhället. Jag bestämde mig för att söka svaren hos medlemmarna själva för att få veta vilka likheterna och skillnaderna är i fråga om klass hos 70-talets kvinnorörelse och Feministiskt initiativ.Jag tror att en viktig anledning till att jag blev nyfiken på detta är min egen klasstillhörighet.

The reconstruction of a central area in Stockholm named Slussen (The sluice) has frequently been portrayed and debated in media over the last few years, escalating around December 2011 when the major decision regarding Slussen was to be made by the city council. The area serves as a traffic node connecting the areas of Södermalm and Gamla Stan (Old town) together. The last major change of Slussen was completed in 1935, best described as a modernistic traffic and architectural piece of work. It is indisputably an area of importance for the city of Stockholm, its citizens and visitors. How has media reported the development of the New Slussen project?The analysis, and the conclusions drawn from it, will be based upon and performed with a quantitative content analysis and critical discourse analysis.

The thesis hears content-error in relation to agreements closed by electronic means. The purpose of the thesis is to elucidate how the rules in 32 §(1) AvtL apply to agreements closed by such means and to evaluate its suitability. The elucidation is done on the basis of, the rules? adequacy in relation to their objectives in collaboration with a comparative view on a selection of international legal framework under private law, such as DCFR, UNCITRAL Model Law, UNIDROIT Principles and CISG.Since Sweden lack a specific regulation for electronically closed agreements, all modern closing methods will be evaluated from the dated outlook of the Swedish Contract Act. In relation to entirely automated processes which results in the closing of an agreement, particular difficulty arise in correlation with prerequisites, which requires a human stance.
