In this paper I study how the repeal of the Swedish wealth tax (1 of January 2007) has affected people´s labour supply behaviour. This particular issue is relevant because it may help us understand some of the effects of the earnings tax changes that have taken place in Sweden. Accoring to standard economic theory a repealed wealth tax is similar to an income effect for the persons who previously paid the tax. That means that they theoretically will want to consume more leisure, that is decrease their labour supply. The method I am using to test this hypothesis is a difference-in-difference approach where the treatment group consists of persons who previously paid the tax and the control group of comparable persons who did not pay the tax.

Can the Danish "Aftalesystemet", a system with the intention to simplify the use of services within health care, be used in Sweden? This project has investigated the possibility by installing and testing the system and explored its functions to detect any eventual problems. Analyses were made of the system's graphical part and the underlying code to see in greater detail how the communication between units occurred, since no actual documentation of it existed. Discussions with the developers took place regarding how the current system works and how further development should continue. In order to test the system, a completely virtual environment was used.

My work has resulted in an interactive search engine for plants that can be found at www.plantit.se. In the work process I have searched for which search criteria is most important when doing searches on woodland plants. I have done this by an analysis of existing databases and with an survey where leading plant expertise answered questions about woodland plants. I analyzed three search pages that are on the internet today Havenet.dk, Backyardgardener.com and Den virtuella floran. I concluded that there are several flaws but also many positive aspects that I have used when developing the interface of my page. The survey resulted in the basis for my search criteria the answers listed the most important factors when planting woodland plants. From this information I developed a system with five values on every criteria.

Hemp is a versatile plant with many uses that has been around for thousands of years. The plant is highly adaptable andwill cultivate in almost any soil. It has excellent remediation properties and has shown to be relatively consistent when itcomes to crop yields. The aim of this literature survey is to examine how hemp can be used to be considered asustainable energy crop in Sweden through database searches and interviews. Hemps characteristics as an energy cropand its remediation properties is evaluated and compared with other plants that are used in Sweden.

Bakgrund: H?lso-och sjukv?rden ?r h?rt belastade verksamheter med otillr?ckliga personalresurser vilket kan f? konsekvenser f?r sjuksk?terske- och l?karstudenters m?jlighet att tr?nas i kliniska f?rdigheter och uppn? sina l?randem?l under den verksamhetsf?rlagda utbildningen (VFU). Genom att anv?nda Personcentrerade Virtuella Patientfall (PVP) i undervisningen ges studenter m?jlighet att tr?na p? sina kommunikativa och kliniska f?rdigheter i en trygg milj? utifr?n deras olika f?ruts?ttningar, men mer kunskap om studenters upplevelser av detta nya pedagogiska verktyg beh?vs. Syfte: Syftet ?r att beskriva studenters upplevelser av PVP och dess anv?ndbarhet i l?randet av kliniska f?rdigheter. Metod: En kvalitativ studie med induktiv ansats anv?ndes. En fokusgruppintervju med fem deltagare utf?rdes och materialet analyserades utifr?n tematisk inneh?llsanalys. Resultat: Tv? huvudteman och sex underteman identifierades.

This report discusses developing a software log tool for analysis of industrial processes. The target was to develop software that can help electro Engineers for monitor and fault finding in industrial processes. The tool is called PLS (Process log server), and is developed in Visual Studio.NET Framework 2005. PLS works as a client with Beijer Electronics OPC Server. The program is able to read data from PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), trough the OPC Server.

The aim with this study is to investigate how Swedish public service local radio uses information subsides in the form of press releases. In terms of which entrants gain entrance to the news feed, in which forms and in which subjects. Also we wanted to study how the journalist uses the content in the press releases. To do this we cooperated with the public service radio channel Sveriges radio P4 Kalmar. For 28 days, four weeks, we collected all incoming press releases to the newsroom of P4 Kalmar.

Publication of science fiction has a tradition in Sweden. Adult-fantasy does not. In recentyears, the 1980's, Swedish publishers have realised how profitable fantasy is. Of the totalpublication of the two genres between 1989 and 1994, 54% was science fiction and 46%was fantasy. The reason for this even balance is that fantasy-books get reprinted more frequentlythan science fiction-books.

Studien unders?ker den allm?nna anv?ndningen av den alternativa kompletterande kommunikationsformen (AKK) bildst?d p? tv? olika f?rskolor. Syftet med studien ?r att unders?ka hur bildst?d i den fysiska milj?n p?verkar kommunikationen p? f?rskolan s?v?l som mellan barn och vuxen, och barn till barn. Metoden f?r studien ?r observation, och det valdes f?r att g?ra en kvalitativ studie som visar hur det egentligen ?r p? f?rskolan f?r att f? ett s? sanningsenligt resultat som m?jligt.

Målet med detta examensarbete har varit att ta fram en applikation föratt publicera kyrkoåret. Appen ska fungera i telefon och pekplatta förandroid. Till det kommer en webbsida som fungerar för datorer ochmobila enheter som inte kör android. Man skall även kunna få framdatan som en PDF (Portable Document Format) fil, XML (ExtensibleMarkup Language) fil och en ICAL (kalender) fil. I denna uppgift ingåräven att ta fram en databasstruktur, objektorienterad design för arbetetsamt val av system och databas.

The aim of this paper is to study intra household allocation of capital income by using data on Swedish observations. The 1991 tax reform was to change the taxation on capital income from a progressive to a flat tax system. Before the tax reform there were incentives to allocate capital income to the spouses with the lowest income of labor in order to reduce the total tax burden. The data describes the year of 1989 and 1993, those we choose to examine. Using Swedish data from LINDA database we estimate a quotient by ordinary least squares (OLS) regression.

Grafdatabasen och NoSQL-rörelsen har på senaste tid fått mycket uppmärksamhet och popularitet. Grafdatabasen har ett rykte om sig att vara snabb och e ektiv för applikationstyper som innehåller enorma mängder data och många komplexa relationer. Studier undersökta i denna rapport visar att de tidigare utförda experimenten jämför databaserna för applikationer som har gynnat grafmodellen. Denna rapport har som syfte att dels undersöka databaserna men även att utföra ett experiment. Syftet med experimentet är att ta reda på ifall grafdatabasen Neo4j kan ersätta relationsdatabasen MySQL för en traditionell informationsapplikation som vanligtvis implementeras med en relationsdatabas. Studiens resultat visar att Neo4j presterar väldigt bra vid insättning och sökning, dock tar studien upp era faktorer som spelar roll för valet av databas. Bristen av säkerhet och stöd är sådana faktorer som gör att relationsdatabasen kan vara det optimala valet för en traditionell informationsapplikation..

Modern air battles are very dynamic and fast, and put extreme pressure on pilots. In some unpredictable situations, like new discovered threats or mission plan deviation because of enemy aircraft, the pilots might need to replan their predefined flight route. This is very difficult, if not impossible, to do since numerous factors affect it. A system that can help the pilots to do such a thing is needed. Previous work in this field has involved methods from artificial intelligence like A*-search.

De s?songsbundna blomningarna av fytoplankton utg?r en livsn?dv?ndig f?dobas i marina ekosystem samtidigt som de har en mycket viktig roll i den globala kolcykeln och d?rmed p?verkar klimatet i stort. I V?sterhavet domineras v?rblomningen till en b?rjan av kiselalger f?ljt att dinoflagellater. D? fytoplankton p?verkas av en rad olika biotiska och abiotiska faktorer har flera betydande skiften i v?rblomningens struktur observerats till f?ljd av klimatf?r?ndringar.
