En kooperativ förening innebĂ€r att medlemmarna handlar med, Ă€ger och styr föreningen. Ägandet bestĂ„r i huvudsak av att medlemmarna har grundinsatser, men de kan ocksĂ„ investera och handla med frivilliga insatser. Det finns olika möjligheter till frivilliga insatser, framförallt emissionsinsatser och förlagsinsatser. Via emissionsinsatser förs kapital över frĂ„n föreningens balanserade vinstmedel till medlemmens individuella konto. Detta kapital blir grund för kommande Ă„rs avkastning.

Svenska fondsparare intresserar sig alltmer för olika tillvĂ€xtmarknader. Årligen investeras sju procent av det svenska fondsparandet i Östeuropafonder, dĂ€r Ryssland Ă€r den största marknaden. Denna studie syftar till att utvĂ€rdera Rysslandsfonder som Ă€r öppna för svenska smĂ„sparare med hjĂ€lp av CAPM, samt prestationsmĂ„tten Jensens alfa, Sharpe- och Treynorkvoten. Studien omfattar 12 fonder under perioden 2007-2010 dĂ€r daglig NAV-kursdata anvĂ€nts. Analysen Ă€r uppdelad dĂ€r studien i period 1 analyserar hela perioden och i period 2 analyserar den andra halvan dĂ„ 2008 Ă„rs finanskris börspĂ„verkan har minimerats.

In the project, my ambition was to make a stage design for theater withteenagers as target group. I have worked with the musical theater groupTheater ACTA in Gothenburg and independently from scripts, interpretedand shaped an outline for the basis of the set design of the play?s differentelements. The play, If this was a feel-good movie, is written by Elin Frostand Anna Lundholm, two members of Theater ACTA. The story is aboutthree people in their twenties with different relationships to each other andone week that would change their lives.

The report aims to investigate how well a certain type of affordable embedded single board computer can hold up against today's more expensive computers in a computer system by doing various tests on a system with the specified requirements. The system has a Raspberry Pi as the single board computer which task is to control a camera based on coordinates obtained from a server as well as capture and stream a video signal on a network.The researches were conducted to check how much network traffic a single-chip computer sent in different video formats and how much CPU utilization was required. Studies were also made to ensure the accuracy of the camera control. The researches have been experimental, where several tests have been performed and analyzed.The results show that a sufficiently good accuracy can be obtained from the camera steering unit, in which two different servos have been investigated. When the video format MJPEG and H.264 are used, the single-chip computer is able to transmit a video signal up to 1280x720 at 15 fps.

As a result of a successful human development around the world an extensive urbanization of societies are taking place that are networked in various ways. In these networks, increased travel and digitization are central where individuals and organizations converge in a constant and immediate wireless and mobile technology flow. An example of this is Stockholm and its public transportation company Storstockholms Lokaltrafik (SL). Although most participate in most of the network society, SL is struggling with an audience that seldom travel with them: families with children. We intended to find out how the communication of SLŽs digital platforms could get families to travel more with public transportation.

För företag som Àr i behov av externt kapital och extern kompetens med ett stort kontaktnÀt, kan en affÀrsÀngel vara till stor hjÀlp. I utbyte mot kapital och egen kompetens fÄr affÀrsÀngeln delar av det investerade företaget, som den i sin tur förvÀntar sig fÄ finansiell avkastning pÄ. Författarna har genomfört en kvalitativ undersökning genom att intervjua affÀrsÀnglar med syftet att undersöka de investeringsmotiv och investeringsstrategier som de har vid sina investeringar. Författarna ger Àven en grundlÀggande sammanfattning av vad affÀrsÀnglarna beaktar vid en investering och vad de generellt har för uppfattning av vad det innebÀr att vara en affÀrsÀngel. Slutsatserna som analysen lÄg till grund för var att det inte alltid Àr avkastningen som Àr det viktigaste investeringsmotivet. Att vara delaktig och medverka till de investerade företagens utveckling var ett mer förekommande svar pÄ frÄgan om affÀrsÀngelns syn pÄ investeringsmotiv.

In this paper we aim to delve deeper into the film industry and how their approach to streaming services such as Netflix might be the solution to the problems with piracy (people downloading illegally instead of paying for the products) - but before they can change the mindset of people, they have to overcome some issues that might make it hard for the film industry to adapt a fully functionable streaming sollution in the veins of Spotify. To come up with some conclusions regarding this matter, we focused our study on the consumers rather than the industry in order to get a better understanding about what the consumers think about the streaming services of film that are offered today. We used both surveys and interviews in order to gather information regarding the consumers thoughts on how the landscape of film distribution has evolved to a point where Video-on-Demand offers the opportunity to watch movies and TV-series whereever and whenever they want. Our research shows that the majority of consumers are willing to pay for streaming services of film and hold the new technology in high regard. However, the concensus among the consumers that were involved in our study shows that the streaming services offered today have to evolve even further in the future before it can fully work as a substitute for illegal downloading.

Empirierna visar att hedgeportföljen under den avgrÀnsade undersökningsperioden har genererat endast marginellt mindre igenomsnittlig avkastning Àn aktieportföljen, som den bÀstavkastningspresterande traditionella portföljen. RiskmÀssigt var det dockuppenbart att hedgeportföljen var överlÀgsen gentemot bÄda de traditionellaportföljerna, som lyckades skydda sig bÀttre mot kursfallen, under bÄda denfinansiella krisen 2007 och den europeiska skuldkrisen 2011. Hedgeportföljenföljde inte heller med de kraftiga uppgÄngarna som förkom pÄ marknaden i sammautstrÀckning som de traditionella portföljerna gjorde. Friareplaceringsregleringar anses vara den viktigaste skillnaden mellan hedge ochtraditionella fonder, som t.ex. tillÄter hedgefonderna att vara högre belÄnade,och kan dÀrför finansiera en större kombination av skildainvesteringsstrategier och Ästadkommer dÀrmed bredare kapitalplaceringar somresulterar i större riskspridningar..

 I denna studie har jÀmförelse gjorts mellan Interacoustics Eclipse och GSI Audera i samband med Auditory Steady-State Respons (ASSR) mÀtningar.Syftet med studien var att undersöka ASSR som metod, att utvÀrdera dess tillförlitlighet i jÀmfö­relse med tonaudiometri för personer med normal hörsel och personer med hörsel­nedsÀtt­ning. Avsikten var dessutom att undersöka om elektrod­placering­ pÄ örsnibb eller pÄ mastoid pÄverkade mÀt­resultatet, försökspersonens upplevelse av instrumen­­t­ens ljudstimuli, om de estimerade ASSR-vÀrdena pÄverkades av att mÀttillfÀllet pÄbörjades eller avslutades med Interacoustics Eclipse samt undersöka tiden för mÀtningarna.En experimentell studie genomfördes. MÀtningarna som utfördes var tonaudiometri och ASSR, den senare uppmÀttes med Interacoustics Eclipse och GSI Audera pÄ (n=20) vuxna med normal hörsel och (n=4) vuxna med hörselnedsÀttning.För personer med normal hörsel pÄvisades en god överensstÀmmelse mellan estimerade ASSR-vÀrden och tonaudiometri för Interacoustics Eclipse, nÄgot sÀmre överensstÀmmelse för GSI Audera. Genomsnittlig mÀttid för bÄda instrumenten var ca 40 min. Resultaten visade att elektrodplaceringen inte har nÄgon pÄverkan pÄ ASSR-vÀrden för Interacoustics Eclipse.

In Sweden there is an integration policy and a policy for national minorities. The integration policy aims to integrate newly arrived immigrants (nyanlÀnda invandrare), whereas the minority policy aims to maintain and strengthen the rights of the national minorities. The national minorities are though, at times, included into the integration policy, even though they hold a minority status in Sweden. This paper aims to, through discourse analysis, investigate the research question: ?how is the content of integration referred to, when it is related to immigrants, contra when it is related to national minorities?.

Syftet med vÄr uppsats Àr att undersöka hur bankerna intÀkts- och kostnadsstruktur har förÀndrats över de senaste 20 Ären. För att uppnÄ vÄrt syfte har vi anvÀnt oss av en induktiv metod. Vi utgÄr frÄn empirin för att sedan söka förstÄelse för denna i olika teorier. VÄra slutsatser Àr att bÄda bankerna har minskat sina intÀkter frÄn rÀntenettot och istÀllet ökat intÀkterna frÄn avkastning och utdelning frÄn handel med vÀrdepapper. Det Àr stora skillnader i in- och utlÄning, övriga lÄn och bankcertifikat mellan bankerna.

Traditionally, it has been argued that companies are only responsible towards their shareholders, to maximize the profits. But lately it has changed into another way of responsibilty. It has become of great importance to demonstrate sustainable long-term values for stakeholders to identify with. This thesis aims to clarify the banks? definition of responsible investment and what criteria they assume when talking about such kind of investments.

In Sweden surgical treatment of vocal fold lesions in children is fairly uncommon. At Falun hospital they have adapted a more generous attitude towards phonosurgery of children?s vocal folds. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate surgical treatment of organic vocal fold lesions in children and to assess the phonosurgical patient utility. The study was carried out at the Ear-, Nose- and Throat clinic, Falun hospital, Sweden.

Abstract  The development and onset of diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and Type 2 diabetes are closely linked to genetics and lifestyle factors including physical activity and diet. A cluster of metabolic disorders called the metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a high-risk factor in developing these diseases. Acording to the International diabetes institute, one fourth of the worlds adult population has MetS. These individuals are twice as likely to die from CVDs compared to individuals without MetS. Physical activity (PA) and exercise has been shown to provide a number of positive effects that are considered to reduce the risk of developing sickness and premature mortality among both men and women of all ages, independent of other risk factors.
