This project is based on my fathers farm which lays outside Löberöd, twenty kilometres south of Eslöv in Skåne. While my family for some time have thought about building a new milkingstable with AMS(Automatic milking system) I decided to compare the AMS with a conventional milkingstable. We are abit concerned about how many cows we should have in the new stable. Because of that I calculated with two different number of cows. I have compared three different types of milking stables: One alternative is 180 cows milked in a double eigth hearing bone milking stable. The second alternative is 128 cows milked with two DeLaval VMS-robots. The third alternative is 171 cows milked with three DeLaval VMS-robots. One salesman from DeLaval and one salesman from A-betong helped me to get marketprices on the milkingrobots, building, ventilation and prices on all the concrete. In all the costs labour is included. The rest of the costs are calculated in a softwareprogram called K-data 03 which is a program with predicted costs. The calulations from the program showed that the price in the milkingpit system was 51 000 sek per cow.

The report is part of the university´engineer program within Industrial Organization and Economics with specialization in Logistics and Managment at Jönköping´s university.Skoghall´s mill underlies a large supply chain, which means there should be a lot of areas in need of small improvement measures. This report illustrates a small part of one of these areas and is focused on the loading distribution services in the terminal Vänern.At the moment there´s a very unequal load of the load carriers SECU box and Container at the terminal. Skoghall´s mill has the desire to equalize the high and low load levels of the 2 loading carriers named previously. One of the options to solve the problem is to set a limit of how much the carriers can load per week or per day. The mill also wants it to be investigated if the proposition would influence the customers in any way and if both the company and its customers could handle a lower level of delivery services in case the proposition was to be applied.The goal to be achieved with this thesis is to provide balance to the unequall loading of the 2 load carriers, SECU and Container, and investigate whether or not the Skoghall´s mill´s customers, could manage the lower degree of delivery service that the proposition would imply.For this goal to be achieved, random sample investigations were taken from orders of a customer that is provided with SECU load carriers and the same was made with a Container´s customer.

En anledning till att många elever upplever bråkräkning som svårt kan vara att räkning med tal i bråkform inte förekommer i vardagslivet lika ofta som förr. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om det fanns några eventuella brister hos elever, som går första året på gymnasiet, när de räknade med tal i bråkform. Kan grundskolan i så fall göra något för att motverka detta? Vi ville samtidigt studera hur eleverna förklarade och motiverade sina tankegångar.För att ta reda på detta genomförde vi en diagnos med tal i bråkform och till svaren skulle eleverna skriva motiveringar och beräkningar. Vi skickade även en enkät till de gymnasielärare som undervisar eleverna för att få deras syn på resultatet.Resultatet visar att många elever saknar tillräckliga baskunskaper för att klara bråkräkning, vilket också lärarnas enkätundersökning signalerar.

Liveanalys är ett begrepp som i detta arbete innebär att man undersöker ett datorsystem under tiden det är igång. Detta kan göras av flera skäl, t.ex. när det är risk för att kryptering finns på systemet vilket kan aktiveras när det stängs ner. Annars är det vanligt om man vill undersöka nätverkskopplingar, aktiva processer eller andra företeelser som kan vara volatila, dvs. försvinner när systemet stängs ner.

Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka gymnasielärares uppfattningar om hotell- och restaurangprogrammets och livsmedelsprogrammets hygienkurs LMK 1204, och utifrån det konstruera en kursplan för nämnd kurs. Arbetet ger en översikt av tidigare forskning om lärares arbete på yrkesförberedande gymnasieprogram, och elevers på samma program uppfattningar om sin utbildning. Vi har arbetat med kvalitativ metodteori och intervjuat lärare på hotell- och restaurangprogrammet och livsmedelsprogrammet om deras uppfattningar om hygienkursen LMK 1204. Med utgångspunkt i de teman vi fick fram vi analys av intervjumaterialet, konstruerade vi en egen kursplan. Sammanfattningsvis tyckte lärarna att det är svårt att kombinera teori med praktik i undervisningen och att få tid till att samarbeta med andra lärare.

BRP Systems utvecklar och säljer affärssystem till mindre och medelstora tjänsteföretag. Huvudsystemet är en Java Swing-applikation och för att få bättre struktur på programmet önskar man vid utvecklingen använda ett lämpligt ramverk om något sådant går att identifiera. Denna rapport undersöker två sådana ramverk.Ett ramverk kan användas som hjälp vid utvecklingen av komplexa applikationer. De fungerar som en grund till applikationen som utvecklas och kan erbjuda olika hjälpfunktioner som ofta behövs i vanliga program. Ramverk kan även få källkoden att bli mer strukturerad och lättunderhållen.

SUMMARYInventory of raw materials holds an important role in companies within the manufacturingsector. The inventory works as a buffer that secure the supply of materials to the productionunit. The aim of the inventory is to ensure that the company is able to meet the customers?demands despite fluctuations and variations in the material flow. The size of the warehouseand the layout are physical limitations for the quantity of articles that can be stored.

An increase interest of new methods and tools has begun to grow in the real estate business, this new trend causes an increase in new programs that aim to simplify processes of energy-efficiency and environmental issues.After consulting with Björn Alsmark from Bjerking AB, an architect and engineering company, we made a decision that the Degree Project is going to examine the program IES (Integrated Environmental Solutions) with some integrations from Revit Architecture application.To be able to examine IES, we got access to a completed project from Bjerking. The project is a nursery school in Uppsala. An application has been handed in from Bjerking to make this project to a Green Building-certificated project. According to Bjerking own calculations (with the energy-calculation program Enorm), the consumption of energy of the nursery school is 48 percent lesser than required by BBR.An evaluation of IES and Enorm has been made with an aim to compare these two programs and find out if IES is an appropriate program to replace Enorm. Does Enorm or IES come up to BBR´s recommendations?The Degree Project cover 15 ECT, that required several adjusting and delimitations, and the study sketch ended with a literature study.After finishing the study sketch the modeling of the nursery school began.

Today more effective computer programs are in use, regarding design of geotechnicalconstructions. There is a risk that the theoretical background of the computerprograms, its limitations and the signification of the choice of soil parameter isforgotten when the computer programs become more user-friendly.This Master thesis deals with simulation and analysis regarding three computerprograms, FEM-design, with the addition Raft, Plaxis and BE-slab. Comparisons aremade for settlement and maximum moment in a concrete-plate. FEM-design is a threedimensional FEM-program, foremost created for design engineers. Plaxis is a twodimensional FEM-program, intended for geotechnical engineers while BE-Slab is aBoundary elements program in two dimensions that is mainly used by designengineers.

Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents is increasing. Diseases which earlier occurred exclusively among adults are now also observed among children. There is an urgent need for new treatments that can change this negative trend. The aim of this study was to describe existing treatments for obesity among children in the age of 6-12 and the effect of those treatments. This descriptive literature study is based on 17 research articles published between 2000 and 2007 from different parts in the world.

Construction accounts for about 35 percent of the total Swedish energy consumption and most of the energy is used by the large housing stock from the so-called ?Million program?. In the national action plan the government has put forward in energy efficiency. It is mentioned that existing buildings account for more than 90 percent of what is expected to be the housing stock within the coming 50 years. In order to meet environmental objectives its required that the existing stock be reviewed for energy efficiency. The goverment is now initiating a national framework with a budget of SEK 300 million Swedish crowns per year for five years, starting in 2010 to achieve the goal on energy efficient buildings. Energy efficiency of buildings in both new construction and above all within the existing stock are addressed.

Växjö is a medium-sized town situated in the centre of the county Småland in Sweden with a good infrastructure and logistics and with a university that encourages cooperation with private and public companies. It is in this town that our case study of Småland Airport will take place. The aim of this study is to examine in which way the program of Library and Information Science at the Linnaeus University in Växjö offers knowledge that can be relevant for the staff at the airport in Växjö - Småland Airport. Using Wilsons model as our theoretical framework we examine how these two align with each other and by using a matrix that we ourselves elaborated in our analysis, we provide a clear picture of how the comparability two places comparability is represented. The result shows that there are compatible aspects to the Småland Aiports needs and what the program of Library and Information Science has to offer.
