Bakgrund: Befolkningen av ?ldre ?kar globalt och studier visar att antalet ?ldre p? akutmottagning ?r h?g till f?ljd av multisjuklighet, polyfarmaci och ?ldersrelaterade fysiologiska f?r?ndringar och funktionsneds?ttningar. Dessutom ?kar prevalensen av demenssjukdomar som en f?ljd av ovan. Studier visar att ?ven personer med demensproblematik ofta bes?ker akutmottagningen vilket ?r problematiskt d? milj?n d?r inte ?r anpassad f?r denna patientgrupp vilket uts?tter dem f?r en rad utmaningar med negativa konsekvenser, s?som f?rs?mring av beteende och funktion.

Bakgrund: Psykisk oh?lsa ?r ett begrepp som rymmer b?de tillf?lliga psykiska besv?r och l?ngvariga psykiatriska diagnoser. Samsjuklighet mellan psykisk oh?lsa och somatiska besv?r f?rsv?rar v?rdinsatser, d? de tenderar att f?rv?rra varandra, samt att samarbetet mellan den somatiska och psykiatriska v?rden ?r fragmenterad. Stigmatisering av psykisk oh?lsa kan bland annat relateras till okunskap, vilket kan bidra till oj?mlik v?rd och kan hindra individen fr?n att s?ka v?rd.

Bakgrund: God s?mn ?r viktigt f?r h?lsa och v?lbefinnande. Patienter p? sjukhus upplever ofta s?mre s?mnkvalitet p? grund av st?rningar och sm?rta. Sjuksk?terskor har ansvaret f?r att strukturera och genomf?ra omv?rdnadsprocessen, inklusive behandlande, h?lsofr?mjande och f?rebyggande ?tg?rder.

There are about 700 000 dogs in Sweden. Roughly 70 % of the dogs are purebred and registered in the database at the Swedish Kennel Club (SKC). The database includes records of birth date, pedigree, offspring and results from e.g. veterinary examinations related to genetic health programs.Every year approximately 10% of the dogs die; most are euthanized by a veterinarian. Dog mortality data is stored as digital medical records at animal clinics and in insurance databases.Dog owners tend to register their puppy in the SKC, but they rarely report that the dog has passed away.

During 2006 SNVDB (the national road data base for forestry) is being introduced to Holmen Skog. This data base contains all information about Holmen Skogs road systems. The information will then be used in different kinds of optimisation models which only produce correct and reliable results if the input data are of the adequate quality. Today there are reasons to believe that road data is of various qualities. The forest roads are often in a bad condition and have to be improved before a planned harvest. The cost of maintenance and construction of new roads is a large part of the total harvesting cost.

Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) har under det senaste decenniet utvecklats mycket och används som datainsamlingsmetod vid inventering av skog. Lantmäteriet genomför mellan åren 2009 och 2015 en riksomfattande flygburen laserskanning över hela Sverige och den laserskanningen ska leda till en ny nationell höjdmodell (NNH). Data som genereras från denna höjdmodell kan nyttjas av skogsindustrin för att göra skogliga inventeringar. Programvaruutvecklaren Esri Inc. har utvecklat ett stöd för hantering av denna typ av data i deras nya version av ArcGIS, ArcGIS 10.1.

Fastighetsregistret (The Cadastre) is a large and important information sourcesupplied by Lantmäteriet (the Swedish mapping, cadastral and land registrationauthority). Fastighetsregistret provides geographical information about the 3.2 millionestates in use in Sweden. Fastighetsregistret has a large number of users who trustthat the provided data is reliable, but experience shows that the data can have varyingquality. As a user it is not always possible to access more detailed information inorder to assess to what extent the data in Fastighetsregistret is reliable.The purpose of this master's thesis is to investigate the possibilities of a system with agraphical user interface that present, classify and visualize the quality of the data inFastighetsregistret. The defined user group for this suggestion is internal users atLantmäteriet who have a good understanding of Fastighetsregistret.

Since the 1950s new laws on higher education have led to a ?mass education phenomenon? in Sweden. This has led to a surplus of people with a university degree measured against available positions on the labor market. As a result of that development it must be assumed that in this over qualified society it is not anymore the degree but additional factors which are decisive for getting a job. In this respect the importance of the class background for getting a jobb that is equal to once level of education shall beexamined.The research was carried out by means of a Quantitative Analysis based on data from anational database called Undersökningar av Levnadsförhållanden (Survey of LivingConditions).

TeliaSoneras driftcentral har ett stort behov av att snabbt samla in statistisk data från noder och kundanslutningar. Insamlat data används sedan för att felsöka och åtgärda olika problem i nätet. För att säkerställa den driftsäkerhet och kvalitet som efterfrågas så behöver ett av systemen vidareutvecklas. Applikationen som utvecklats ska förbättra insamlingen och lagringen av det statistiska datat för att snabba upp analyserna av kvalitet i xDSL-nätet. Kraven på applikationen är att insamlingen, konverteringen samt lagring ska vara horisontellt skalbara.

The aim of this paper is to study whether the way directioners (One Direction fans) on Twitter express self-understandings denote fandom as a sacred experience. For this purpose, the data was analyzed in relation to Nicholas Jay Demerath III typology of the varieties of the sacred experience. The method used was discursive psychology. The data was analyzed by how the fans draw the line between ?us? and ?them?, when expressing their self-understandings and their position in relation to others. Five themes were identified: (1) positioning and demarcation for membership, (2) group identity, (3) conflict, (4) the norms for behavior, opinions and language and (5) the group?s role and function.

I en tid d?r samh?llet st?ndigt f?r?ndras och utvecklas har banksektorn f?tt m?ta nya krav och f?rv?ntningar fr?n marknaden. Efterfr?gan p? digitala l?sningar, tekniska innovationer och nya kundbeteenden ?r saker svenska banker beh?vt anpassa sig till under senare ?r. I ett f?r?ndringsklimat kan akt?rer i banksektorn beh?va genomf?ra strategiska f?r?ndringsarbeten f?r att forts?tta f?lja utvecklingen och den r?dande efterfr?gan.

FlexRay is a new communication protocol which is fast, reliable and flexible and therefore can meet the increasing demands on data communication in the vehicle industry. The protocol is developed by an industrial consortium containing among  others BMW, Daimler Chrysler, Motorola and Phillips. Today (May 2009) Hägglunds is using CAN for data transmission in their systems. CAN is getting obsolete and has difficulties in coping with the increasing flow of communication. In this report FlexRay and its communication capacity is studied.

Annual reports from Banverket and Luftfartsverket have been studied.Theoretical perspectives: The regulations that rule the authorities are a base for the study.Earlier researches done within the subject are presented in this section.Empirical foundation: The empirical foundation of this study consists of primary- and secondary data. The primary data is collected from the interviews that have been done, whilst the secondary data is composed of annual reports, regulations and various other documents.Conclusions: The authors have come to the conclusion that the method of valuation that Statens järnvägar choose, depends a lot on the vehicles hypothetical future. It is difficult to say that only one of the methods would be the correct one..

Bakgrund: Intensivv?rden ?r en h?gspecialiserad v?rdform d?r patienter ofta ?r kritiskt sjuka och beroende av avancerad medicinteknik. I denna milj? har intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskan en central roll, inte bara i att ge livsuppeh?llande v?rd, utan ?ven i att tillgodose patientens och n?rst?endes behov. N?rst?endes n?rvaro kan ?ka patientens trygghet och v?lbefinnande, men involvering i v?rden utmanas ofta av stress, kommunikationsbrister och h?g arbetsbelastning. Att f?rst? intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskans erfarenheter av att involvera n?rst?ende ?r avg?rande f?r att fr?mja personcentrerad och kvalitetss?ker v?rd inom intensivv?rden. Syfte: Att belysa intensivv?rdssjuksk?terskans upplevelser av att involvera n?rst?ende i v?rden p? IVA. Metod: Systematisk litteratur?versikt med kvalitativ ansats och tematisk analys.
