Reservdelsinköparna på avdelningen Support & Services på Saab är utspridda på sex orter i Sverige med skilda verksamheter och affärer. Dessa skillnader påverkar de logistiska beslut som tas och ökar svårigheten att använda en gemensam lagerstyrningsstrategi. I Tannefors, vilket är den ort som har tydligast uttalad lagerstyrningsstrategi, grundar sig de största lagerstyrningsproblemen i att systemstödet som används vid den dagliga planeringen inte är användarvänligt. På de mindre orterna där Saabs inköpsverksamhet inte bedrivits lika länge består problemen till stor del av att en uttalad lagerstyrningsstrategi saknas vilket leder till brister i planering, ett kortsiktigt tankesätt och brådskande expressbeställningar. För att möta dessa utmaningar har denna studie utformat en gemensam lagerstyrningsstrategi för de två största inköpsorterna, Tannefors och Nyköping, vilka kan ligga till grund för att kunna utöka strategin till alla Support & Services inköpsorter.Lagerstyrningsstrategin utformades genom att först genomföra en dubbel ABC-klassificering av alla artiklar och sedan gruppera ihop de klasser som kan styras likartat samt bestämma en önskad servicenivå för respektive grupp.

Introduction and research question:  This study investigates the widely discussed notion ?Corporate Social Responsibility? and its practice in the tourism industry. In the contemporary society more companies are realizing the significance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and its potential as a means of differentiation.  The author?s interest in this particular phenomenon was awakened after reading about the business case of Scandic Hotels. This is a company that nowadays is referred to as ?Scandinavia?s leading hotel chain?.

Over the past 40 years 600 000 ha of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta ssp. latifolia (Engelm.) Critchf.) has been planted in Sweden (280 000 ha on SCA's forest land alone which represents about 15% of the company's total forest land area). In the early 70's SCA situated a number of experimental stands in order to investigate different aspects of the exotic tree, primarily growth rate. To be able to compare the two species plots with scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), this species was also planted at the same time and under the same conditions. A number of questions should always be raised when exotic species are introduced in an ecosystem. Invasiveness, the pathogen situation and purely ethical issues should be discussed.

Bildtraditioner, ämnesintegrering och elevperspektiv är viktiga ingredienser i denna C-uppsats. Undersökningen tar sin plats på en gymnasieskola som arbetar ämnesintegrerat, KF Gymnasiet, där jag själv är bild- och medielärare. Jag har valt att följa eleverna i en projektgrupp genom deras arbetsprocesser i ett ämnesintegrerat filmprojekt. Genom intervjuer och enkäter har eleverna fått berätta om sina uppfattningar om bildämnet; ett material som sedan bearbetas genom diskursanalytisk metod. Jag har arbetat med eleverna med både teckning och måleri, för att sedan ämnesintegrera bild med svenska och engelska i ett filmprojekt.

Parallel to new technological advancements, including the development of interactive recommender systems, digital music services on the Internet, such as Spotify, have in a short time span gradually replaced former physical media such as CDs and MP3-players and become pioneers on a market with an otherwise uncertain future. By subscribing to the service, users have access to a vast library of music and from any device with Internet access. In order to provide a satisfactory and useful musical experience, different ways of coping with the vastness is required - which is precisely what recommender systems are for. Improved filtering techniques and use of devices built in sensors, make way for new opportunities of more precise and contextually tailored suggestions for track selection, which in turn leads to potential privacy issues when using interactive music services. But where do we stand today? By compiling, exemplifying and discussing three different perspectives with relating to the development of interactive music recommender systems, the objective for this paper is to provide a for science, industry and user, objectively nuanced account of current potentials and expectations.

This thesis conducts a comparative study between two academiclibraries, one Swedish and one English, in order to analyse ifdifferent funding systems influence the marketing of theirservices.
