The initial aim of the roll out of smart electricity meters in Sweden was to allow remote readings of the households? monthly electricity consumption for billing purposes. Since then the transition towards a smart grid has become a more prioritized matter. In the roll out of next generation smart meters more attention is therefore given to how the Distribution System Operator (DSO) can benefit from the meter through different smart grid applications. This study uses a qualitative research method to identify three general fields of application and 15 specific concepts corresponding to ways in which the DSO can create added value from the information provided by the smart meter.

En av anestesisjuksköterskors uppgifter på en operationsavdelning är att ta emot och förbereda patienten inför narkos. Anestesisjuksköterskor bör arbeta utefter en perioperativ vårdprocess där ett pre- intra- och postoperativt samtal med patienten ingår. Den vetenskapliga litteraturen i ämnet förespråkar vikten av kontinuitet i patientmötet och den perioperativa vårdprocessen. En välinformerad patient känner sig trygg, vilket leder till minskat vårdlidande och snabbare postoperativ återhämtning. Dagens verksamhet är dåligt anpassad till att följa den perioperativa process som litteraturen beskriver.

Denna uppsats a?mnar utreda den upphovsra?ttsliga problematiken som uppsta?r vid anva?ndandet av generativ AI, med sa?rskild inriktning pa? musikbranschen. Uppsatsen underso?ker anva?ndningen av upphovsra?ttsligt skyddade verk som input i AI-system samt den genererade musikens upphovsra?ttsliga status. I syfte att utforska de tva? dimensionerna av generativ AI och upphovsra?tt fokuserar uppsatsen pa? relationen mellan input och output, med ma?let att belysa det komplexa sambandet mellan tra?ningsdatan och musiken som genereras.

This qualitative study was conducted to investigate how subordination and superiority emerges in the interaction between heterosexual couples between 20 to 30 years old, without children. Eight semi-structured interviews with four couples have been conducted to provide insight into how subordination and superiority is made in the interaction between the cohabiting couples. All interviews were transcribed and then manually categorized along specific main themes and sub themes. The empirical data were then assayed by a hermeneutic interpretation.   Three previous studies have formed the basis for this study, Det kallas kärlek by Carin Holmberg, the anthology, Jämställdhetens pris and Familjer i tiden by Christine Roman and Helen Peterson. The theoretical framework consists symbolic interactionism, and especially the concept of asymmetrical role-taking and also doing gender.

The ?good girl? is today an accepted and widespread notion. It is delimited to young girls and women who are characterised to be, for example, ambitious, high performing, working too much and risks developing mental illnesses. In today?s society women are assumed to pursue their career alongside maintaining the main responsibility for the household and family.

En kraftigt o?kande onlinehandel go?r det allt vanligare att konsumenter tvingas uppge personuppgifter i ko?pproces- sen pa? Internet. Personuppgifter kan med teknisk utveckling ocksa? samlas in pa? nya sa?tt, exempelvis med hja?lp av cookies, och konsumenten a?r inte no?dva?ndigtvis alltid medveten om detta intra?ng pa? dennes integritet. Denna studie syftar till att underso?ka kopplingar mellan denna integritetsmedvetenhet och konsumentens ko?pintentioner pa? Internet.

Uppsatsen har som mål att se hur läsningen av Kurt Vonnegut kan kompletteras med ekokritiska perspektiv. Som ämne valdes hot mot planeten och det undersökta materialet var fyra av Vonneguts böcker: Player Piano (1954), Breakfast of Champions (1973), Slapstick (1976) samt A Man without a Country (2005). Böckerna undersöktes utifrån frågorna: Har det tidigare i Vonneguts författarskap förekommit hot mot planeten? Vilka är i sådana fall dessa hot och vilka är aktörerna bakom hoten? samt Hur framställs hoten och hur har hoten och framställningen förändrats från Vonneguts debut till hans avslutande roman? Undersökningen visade att det genom hela Vonneguts författarskap har funnits ett tema som säger att livet som levs är ohållbart. Det tar sig form i olika hotbilder mot planeten.

The aim of this study was to investigate how mothers in families with strong patriarchal traditionssee their role as a mother and as a woman. The study is built upon two main questions: What arethe expectations of your family and your immediate environment on you as a mother and as awoman? And what does ?honour? mean for you as a mother and as a woman? In our paper wehad as a starting point a gender perspective that was further on applied in defining our researchquestion. We are also giving an account of the phenomenological perspective that we also had asa basis of our work. We interviewed six mothers living in families with strong patriarchaltraditions.

The latest thing in the area of environmental building today is energy-plus-house. The idea behind the energy-plus-house is to create a house that produces more energy than it consumes. To accomplish this, the house uses renewable energy, in this particular case solar energy. With the help from a proper construction and thoughtfully projected installations you can achieve a surplus of energy. The surplus energy can then be sold to the surrounding buildings and thereby conduce to a financial profit for the household.

Många studier har visat att välinformerade patienter upplever mindre oro i samband med anestesi vilket leder till mindre risk att drabbas av intra- och postoperativa komplikationer. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa hur det preoperativa samtalet leder till välbefinnande för patienter inför anestesi. Litteraturstudien baserades på åtta kvalitativa artiklar. Analysen genomfördes enligt Graneheims och Lundmans innehållsanalys. Resultatet visade att patienternas starkaste intryck i det preoperativa samtalet som bidrar till välbefinnande var att sjuksköterskan förmedlade trygghet, att de kände sig sedda som individer och inte som objekt.

The scope of this investigation is to decide how and to what extent the energy consumption of apassive house is affected by the users? knowledge and habits. To achieve this a literary study hasbeen made and as a complement the planning of a passive house was completed.The result of a primary study of the rules and regulations that effect passive houses in Swedenshows that the user?s influence on passive houses is a completely unregulated area. Even thoughthere is no regulation, a need for some general knowledge of the passive house concept has beenexpressed.To further investigate how the users? knowledge and habits affect the energy consumption and ifthere is a difference between different households? energy consumption , three main factors havebeen identified.

This study aims to evaluate the waste management in Norrbottens municipalities in key areas such as possibilities to reach the two national waste goals, information to the public, the effect of legislation, future of waste management and differences in geographic- and demographic areas. The Waste Framework Directive (WFD) issued by the EU and incorporated into Swedish law plays a major part in waste management by defining a hierarchy in five steps how waste should be treated. Interviews conducted with each of the fourteen municipalities aimed to find out what step in the hierarchy they are at and what effect the implementation of EU-legislature into Swedish law has had. Based on the interviews a diverse range of answers was found in relation to the questions asked, generally the more populated municipalities saw a more positive future of waste management, mainly because more developed infrastructure to handle waste is already in place. However the smaller the municipality is the harder it is to allocate resources for waste management and problems arise in the form of expensive transports of waste.
