The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate two pearl growing methods in ISI Web of Science. The methods tested are Find Related Records FRR, an automatic service that uses bibliographic coupling, and Author Keywords AK, where searches are performed using the two first keywords from this field. Both search methods were used on twenty initial documents and the first twenty hits were evaluated for relevance using a binary scale 0,1. The relevance criteria were based on specific information needs connected to every initial document. The measures used to evaluate the effectiveness of the search methods were Precision at DCV=10, P10, and Uninterpolated Average Precision AP.

Syftet är att undersöka medarbetarnas möjlighet till att arbeta utvecklande samt hur de får tillgång till och arbetar med icke-finansiell information på Nordea. Tillgången till fri information, som används och bearbetas på olika sätt, är idag en viktig förutsättning för medarbetarna inom Nordea. Icke-finansiell information blir allt mer viktigt, trots att Nordeas kortsiktiga framgång bygger på finansiella resultat. Tillgången till information skapar möjligheter för medarbetarna att vara med och påverka och fatta egna beslut. Det är inte längre ledningen som bestämmer vilken information som ska användas, ansvaret har förskjutits till medarbetarna.

The new information society has revolutionised almost the entire world. But the new technique does not only bring good. That which was before only available on paper may today only be available on a computer system. This makes it possible to send data electronically. In the wrong hands that information can become a threat against the security of an individual, a company or even a nation.

The health care sector is one of the most information-intensive institutions in Sweden. Big investments in information technology have been made to ensure efficiency and quality within organisations in health care. This has led to high requirements in documentation and resulted in an increase in administration which gradually more often is done by nurses and doctors. A major problem is that it is difficult to gain access to the information recorded in all the different systems, which is their objective. This causes double documentation instead of being a support in follow-up performance.

Vi har på uppdrag från Vägverket undersökt hur väl implementeringen av det nya intranätet, Infarten, har genomförts och mottagits av berörd personal på lokalkontoret i Karlstad.Infartens övergripande mål är att vara en del av chefernas och medarbetarnas dagliga arbete samt fungera som ett verktyg för att söka information. Intranätet ska sprida aktuella nyheter, som alla inom organisationen ska kunna ta del av. Anledningen till att Vägverket valde att vidareutveckla Infarten, från regionala intranät till ett intranät för samtliga regioner, var att de upplevde svårigheter och problem med en icke fungerande uppföljning och dubbellagring av information.För att ta reda på hur väl Infarten fungerar i det dagliga arbetet i verksamheten genomförde vi en kvalitativ undersökning bland medarbetarna på lokalkontoret i Karlstad. I de intervjuer vi gjorde, studerade vi medarbetarnas användning av Infarten i sina dagliga arbeten och även deras egna uppfattningar om Infartens uppbyggnad.Resultatet visade att medarbetarna hade användning av Infarten, de uppgav att de inte skulle vilja vara utan Infarten. Vi såg ett mönster som visade att respondenterna endast använde sig av vissa delar av Infarten, de delar de behövde för att klara av sina arbetsuppgifter.

The Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics (CGB) is an academic department at Karolinska Institute. Generally stated, the CGB department is committed to the generation and management of genetic information by approaches aiming at elucidating the connection between genes, protein and function.WiGID is a genome information database that is available through WAP (Wireless Application Protocol).Our version of WiGID is based on WML, PHP and PostgreSQL as a database server.One of the changes on the old WiGID application was the creation of a relational database with seven tables and one view, instead of the file that represented the database on the old version. We also changed the script language from python to PHP.The search engine ability has been extended with three new search alternatives for a user to choose from. Each choice leads to other, sometimes multiple choices.A GUI has been created for the administrator, to be able to insert information into the database.The structure of the search engine is primarily for narrowing down the search result on the phone display, thereby making the search efficient..

Changes are occurring in most organizations today and due to the fact that changes often are harder to implement than they seem, it often takes much longer time to implement them than the management have planned. During an organizational change theorist claim that communication between managers and employees is one of the most important things to consider. Therefore, in this essay, our aim is to closer investigate which needs of information and communication co-workers have during a planned organizational change. To collect data, we interviewed five co-workers and one manager who works in an organization which has gone through a major change. Our theoretical framework comprises former research of organizational communication, employee?s needs of communication, change communication and theories of uncertainty during organizational change.

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka den finansiella informationens eventuella inverkan på onormal avkastning i samband med publika bud. I en eventstudie analyseras därför företagsförvärv genomförda på Stockholmsbörsen under tidsperioden 1990-01-01 till och med 2009-12-31. Den moderna portföljteorin, effektiva marknadshypotesen samt marknadsmodellen utgör den teoretiska grunden för den kvantitativa undersökningen. För att utvärdera huruvida förvärven varit värdeskapande beräknas onormal avkastning, kumulativ genomsnittlig onormal avkastning(CAAR) samt volymviktad kumulativ onormal (VW CAAR) för bud- samt målbolag. Vidare presenteras tidigare forskning samt teorier kring företagsförvärv, vilka utgjort underlaget till hypoteserna i studien.Förvärven har delats in i två huvudgrupper baserat på om finansiell prognostiserande information har delgetts marknaden i samband med förvärv eller inte.

Resource-based learning or problem-oriented learning are teaching methods that are becoming more and more common in schools today. In order to make these teaching methods work there is a demand to make students information literate. This entails that school librarians ought to play a more important role in teaching than before since they are the ones that are the most qualified when it comes to mediating information skills. The aim of this thesis is to find out how nine teachers at six senior high schools apprehend the professional role of the school librarian and how they apprehend the conception of information literacy In order to learn about these conceptions we have chosen to study to what extent collaboration exists in the schools in question and the teachers conceptions of the importance of the school librarian in this context. We have used phenomenography which is both a set of theoretical assumptions and a methodology.
