TV and radio services have always been distributed over analogue broadcasting networks and been received on a TV -set or a radio receiver. Today this situation is changing due to digitalization and convergence between broadcasting, telecommunications and data communications. Other terminals, such as a PC, can also receive TV and radio services. Digital TV and radio can offer additional services such as e-commerce, electronic program guides and content synchronized to the TV and radio shows. If these services are to be received by several receiving terminals with different properties, the services must be adapted to the terminals.

Störd sömn resulterar i otillfredsställda behov som fysiologiska behov, behoven av trygghet, samhörighet, uppskattning, utveckling och personlig tillväxt. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva störd sömn på sjukhus ur patientperspektiv. Studien har baserats på 14 vetenskapliga artiklar som motsvarade syftet och analyserades med en metod för systematisk översikt. Analysen resulterade i tre huvudgrupper: Faktorer relaterade till patienter, faktorer relaterade till den fysisk miljö, faktorer relaterade till sjukvårdspersonal. resultatet visade många omständigheter som störde sömnen bland patienter, t.ex.

This paper strives to answer ?What happens to the experience of diehard fans when a groupchanges an original song?? and the musical example for this are the German group Blutengeland their songs Behind The Mirror and Reich mir die Hand, which they first performed assymphonic versions at 2012?s Gothic meets Klassik in Leipzig, Germany. Theoretically thispaper is built on the idea that musical meaning conjures not only from the music itself, butalso from the perceiver and the situation.Through five interviews this paper answers who the informants are, what music means forthem and specifically, what the music of Blutengel means for them. The result shows that theinformants were acceptant to the musical change, but for some disappointment would occur ifthe band continued with orchestral instrumentation. The limit for acceptance seems not to liein musical rearrangement but instead in changed artistic identity..

Syftet med denna studie är att bidra med ökad kunskap om kompetensförsörjningsprocessen inom äldrevården. Fokus ligger på delarna som handlar om att attrahera, utveckla och behålla personal. Vår avsikt är att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar dessa delar samt om det finns någon skillnad mellan de undersökta enheterna. Empirin samlades in genom en enkät som delades ut till undersköterskor och vårdbiträden på två hemtjänstenheter och ett äldreboende i en medelstor svensk kommun.Resultaten visar att en önskan att få arbeta med människor är den främsta anledningen till att söka sig till äldrevården. Vi fann dock att en bra lön inte är någon stor anledning till att söka sig dit.

The numbers of mergers and acquisitions have increased significantly in the last period of time. Although this popularity for mergers and acquisitions, most of the mergers and acquisitions fail to create value. One explanation to this failure of value creation is, according to several studies, how companies treat integration of information systems in the pre-merger evaluation. The research within the field argues that information system integration should have a proactive role in mergers and acquisitions, meaning that information system integration should support the organizational change and normally be considered in the premerger evaluation. The aim of this thesis is to study issues that affect whether companies choose to consider information system integration proactively, when involved in mergers and acquisitions.

Den svenska arbetsmarknaden har genomgått stora förändringar under 1990-talet, då nya anställningsformer började utvecklas. I början av 1990-talet blev bemanningsföretag lagliga och därefter har uthyrning av personal expanderat. Syftet med denna undersökning var att få en djupare förståelse för hur uthyrda personer upplever sin arbetssituation samt undersöka om det fanns olika uppfattningar hos personer anställda hos ett större respektive mindre bemanningsföretag. Totalt sju deltagare med erfarenhet av att arbeta som uthyrda hos ett större respektive mindre bemanningsföretag intervjuades. Efter en tematisk analys visade resultatet att grundinställningen till uthyrningsarbete hade betydelse för hur arbetsvillkoren upplevdes.

The inhuman element in Djuna Barnes?s works has been widely acknowledged. So far the research has, however, concerned itself primarily with animality, thus neglecting the importance of things and thingliness in her texts. In this essay I outline a new way of approaching Barnes were things are taken into account as a vital element in her literary world, using theories on prostheses, fetishes and souvenirs. In Nightwood and four of the short stories, ?A Night Among the Horses?, ?Aller et Retour?, ?Cassation?, and ?The Grande Malade?, I examine clothing, interiors, collections, statues and dolls as objects that in different ways harbour meaning, dream, riddle, memory, history, longing and desire.

The purpose of this study was to investigate pupils' and teachers' experiences of using the simulator computer game Minecraft in connection with the Swedish school competition Future City. The study examines how students (ages 14-15) and teachers have experienced the use of Minecraft, what the students have learned in relation to everyday education and the different forms of education during Future City and also examine which patterns that exists in the experiences of the students, with personal interest of and knowledge of Minecraft as a benchmark. The study was conducted through individual semi-structured interviews with both students and teachers. The analysis of the results is based upon a theoretical perspective that includes a socio-cultural view of learning, as well as the lines of reasoning in previous research about computer games and learning. As a general approach towards the study, and in a way, a justification of the chosen research method, a hermeneutic approach was used.

?If we consume the product as a product, we consume its meaning through advertising? ? Jean BaudrillardSyftet med denna studie är att identifiera och analysera bakomliggande myter om lycka i kommersiella reklamfilmer, utifrån ett konstruktionistiskt perspektiv. Analysmodellen, som bygger på semiotik och neoformalism, genererade kunskap om de olika berättarstrukturerna kring lycka i de undersökta reklamfilmerna. Resultaten indikerade framförallt att berättarstrukturerna om lycka grundar sig i myter som är starkt kopplade till den kapitalistiska ideologin. Studien avser därmed att blottlägga och analysera myter om lycka i reklamfilmer ur ett kritiskt konstruktionistiskt perspektiv..

Bright Chest of DrawersThis project derives from a fascination of spaces which withonly light and shadow withhold a narrative value, which createsemotions and experiences with a minimum of objects. Iwanted to invesitigate light and lighting, and create a productthat can change the mood and experience of a spatial enviromentwith light. Questions I asked myself was: How do I relateto the spatial limitations that arise? How can I, with light asmy tool, give form to an immaterial value or state of mind?Will the object that illuminates be the most important factorof communication and meaning when I want to tell a story, oris it the light itself?The result became a chest of drawers that is lighted up frominside when you open the drawers. It serves a function as a unitfor storage of objects, but also makes us reflect of the importanceof objects, of how we define a spatial enviroment, andwhat we consider as private spaces in our home..
