BakgrundAllt fler blir allt äldre. I takt med sociala och ekonomiska framsteg ökar människors livslängd - en utveckling som antas fortgå under de närmsta decennierna (World Health organization, 2013). En ökad medellivslängd är ett tecken på en positiv samhällsutveckling i form av effektivare sjukvård och förbättrade levnadsförhållanden (Agahi, Lagergren, Thorslund & Wånell, 2005). En befolkning som blir allt äldre innebär dock även en ökad incidens av kroniska, livsstilsrelaterade sjukdomar som högt blodtryck, diabetes typ II och benskörhet (World Health Organization, 2013). För förebyggande av dessa sjukdomar är bra kosthållning genom hela livet av avsevärd betydelse (Livsmedelsverket, 2009), och så är även forskning kring vad, hur och när människor väljer att äta (Bellisle, 2003; Renner, Sproesser, Strohbach & Schupp, 2012).SyfteVårt syfte är att undersöka vilka de övervägande skälen till äldres matval är.

I slutet av år 2005 blev en ny applikation utvecklad. Applikationen hade en innovativ potential att marknadsföras internationellt vilket ledde till att en patentansökan lämnades in och företaget Mobisma AB grundades. Den tekniska lösningen uppfyllde kraven för en patentansökan och hade nyhet, uppfinningshöjd och en industriell användbarhet. Avsikten med den här uppfinningen var att styra användarens frånvarustatus i en telefonväxel från sin mobiltelefon. Vid den här tidpunkten årsskiftet 2005/2006 var det unikt med applikationer för en mobiltelefon.

Syftet med denna rapport är att utvärdera problem och möjligheter med att använda Web-baserade informationssystem, d.v.s. att använda World Wide Web som plattform för ett informationssystem.Rapporten avhandlar utvecklingen av organisationer och vikten av att de använder sig av ett flexibelt informationssystem, samt fördelar och nackdelar för organisationer att använda ett Web-baserat informationssystem.Användbarheten är en viktig del i ett system och en fallstudie har gjorts på ett existerande hypermedia-system. Överblicksproblemet är idag ett stort problem vid användandet av hypermedia och det diskuteras specifikt.Resultatet är att Web-baserade informationssystem har många fördelar men samtidigt även stora nackdelar, vilket gör att dessa system inte idag kan inte ersätta de traditionella informationssystemen. Däremot kan de fungera som ett komplement. Det finns även problem ur användbarhets-synpunkt som måste lösas, för att hypermedia-system ska bli riktigt effektiva..

Today's global market means that raw materials are sought and bought from all over the world. This creates an higher demand for a well-functioning supply chain. In our thesis we have studied a large paper mill in northen Sweden which experiences issues with flow of raw material. Our aim has hence been to examine which aspects affect the flow of raw materials to the mill, and how these can be adressed using an IT-system. The question we sought to answer was; What factors are important to consider and how do these affect the ability of an IT-system which will support the flow of raw material at the paper mill? We have found that the problems are strongly connected to the low amount of information sharing between the mill and the suppliers.

Abstract The amount of evil that we can see in our world might make the thought of a kind and caring God as its creator paradoxical. This is what is generally called the problem of evil and the topic of this study. This is a litterary study which is based on qualitative analysis and hermeneutics as our method.

Most of the goats in the world exist in the developing countries where they are important in the meat industry. In Europe, goats are mostly kept for milk production although the interest for meat is growing. Goats have a thin carcass with only small amounts of intramuscular fat, which gives a lean meat. This thin subcutaneous fat cover can cause cold shortening when chilling the carcass. By using electrical stimulation cold shortening can be prevented.

Does the country people live in affect the probability of them experiencing happiness? Can a country variable in an ordinal regression model be affected when microeconomic and macroeconomic factors are added to the model? The possible outcomes are either that the country variable affects less when the additional predictors are added to the model, or that they stay the same. The micro data is collected from the European Social Survey database, the macro data is collected from the World Bank. The country variable becomes less substantial when additional variables are added to the model. The variable with the most influence over expected happiness apart from the country variable is whether the individual often socializes with friends or not.
