This thesis is about making a support for barcode readers and RFID readers on a computermounted in heavy vehicles. The computer has several applications designed for heavyvehicles such as an order handling application. The goal was to suggest an architecture toimplement a support for the readers. The architecture should be independent of whichmanufacturer who has made the reader hardware that was connected to the computer.At first a theoretically study was made around RFID technology and standards for thetransport and supply sector. Then the architecture was developed and a demo implementationwas made.The conclusion of this thesis is to implement support for barcode readers with a wedgeapplication.

Syftet med denna undersökning är samspelet och kommunikationen mellan elever och personal i skolans tidiga årskurser. Vi har använt oss av litteraturstudier och intervjuer i den här undersökningen. Det har visat sig att det finns brister i samspelet och kommunikationen på de skolor vi undersökt. Den största bristen visade sig vara kommunikationen mellan rektorer och lärare. Den litteratur som vi har läst i ämnet har belyst hur viktigt det är med samspelet och kommunikationen för en väl fungerande relation människor emellan.

Detta är en studie genomförd med syfte att ta reda på hur personal i förskolan tänker kring, samt använder tecken som stöd som ett verktyg för att främja barns kommunikation och språkutveckling i den dagliga verksamheten. Studien är kvalitativ och metoden som använts för att samla in material är intervjuer med personal som arbetar i förskola. Resultatet har visat en medvetenhet hos personalen av betydelsen att använda tecken som stöd för att främja barns kommunikation och språkutveckling. Resultatet visar att trotts denna medvetenhet är arbetet begränsat då personalen känner att de inte har tillräckligt med kunskap för att arbeta med tecken som stöd. Slutsatsen av studien visar att personal i förskolan anser att tecken som stöd är ett värdefullt verktyg men att det behövs mer forskning kring dess betydelse för barns kommunikation och språkutveckling för att kunna utveckla detta arbete i förskolans verksamhet. .

In 2002 the Norrköping municipality decided to establish a number of supportive teams and one teaching group with the purpose of developing alternative supporting efforts for children with social problems. This development work came to be called BUSS. BUSS today consists of four local teams, team Ett, team Norra, team Torpet and the Mathson School.The teams? focus, beyond the commission from Norrköping municipality, is to reduce the number of children being placed outside their own homes, get them to function in school, develop their self-confidence and social competence. Also their task is to support parents and take up a functional spare time for the children.

Digitization is a concept that has become popular in terms of collections of old heritage-related material such as books, photographs and paper documents. This work is a study of the Swedish composer Allan Pettersson (1911?1980) and his personal archive stored at Section for Manuscripts and Music at Uppsala University Library. My issues are What happens to the archive of the digitized? Will there be a "new" archive of the digitized? What guidelines are Uppsala University Library using for their digitizing and how do they look? What will be the result after digitization? What about copyright and the material? Allan Pettersson's personal papers consist a large collection of sketches of musical notes, newspaper clippings and concert programs.

Det är viktigt för blivande och befintliga butikschefer att skapa arbetsmotivation hos sin personal då medarbetarna är företagets viktigaste resurs. Butikschefer får vara beredda på att personalmängden kan variera och det är därför viktigt att kunna motivera såväl få som många medarbetare till att arbeta. Denna uppsats syftar till att, utifrån butikschefens perspektiv, beskriva hur butikschefen agerar när det gäller att motivera sin personal till att arbeta, i en stor butik med många medarbetare respektive en liten butik med få medarbetare. Detta görs för att kunna klarlägga de likheter och skillnader som finns i butikschefens agerande med medarbetarnas arbetsmotivation beroende på dennes personalmängd. För att få en inblick i verkligheten har vi intervjuat två butikschefer, en i en stor butik respektive en i en liten butik och jämfört deras tillvägagångssätt i att motivera sin personal till att arbeta.

Ett återkommande problem är att IT-verksamheten fungerar som en stat i staten: att IT-verksamheten inte är i enhetlighet med affärsverksamheten som den ska stödja. Det finns forskningsområden där teorier utvecklats för att kunna hantera detta problem och jag har titta på Alignment och IT-management. Istället för att kalla det Alignment har jag valt att kalla detta för länkning: att man ska länka samman IT-verksamhet med affärsverksamhet så att de går i samma riktning. Jag har förstått att det mest grundläggande, när det handlar om länkning, är att via strategier försöka få IT-verksamheten att harmonisera med affärsverksamheten. Men strategier är artefakter och det är IT-personal som utför arbetet som ska stödja affärsverksamheten.

The main focus of the essay is to investigate if bugging can be justified from two ethics perspectives, the teleological and the deontology. I?ve chosen to emanate from two specific values which I believe is especially relevant to the ethical problems of bugging, efficiency in fighting crime and the personal integrity. To be able to illustrate this conflict between different values did I do an analysis of an official report which had the task to explore if Sweden should introduce bugging as a new means of compulsion. The official report's statement was that the police should have modern instrument to fighting crimes efficient, including bugging.My examination of the report showed that they used several arguments derived from both the efficiency in fighting crime perspective and the personal integrity perspective.

The aim of the study was to install a biogas system consisting of three tubular polyethylene biogas digesters at a rural household in Malawi and to evaluate the constructed biogas system with regards to relevant system parameters. The purpose was to evaluate if the technology is a possible solution to reduce deforestation and support Malawi in climate change mitigation and adaptation. The study was carried out in the southern part of Malawi in cooperation with the University of Malawi. Locally available materials were used to construct and install the system. Three different feed materials, cow, goat and a mix of cow and goat manure, were used in order to determine which one was best suited to utilise as a digester substrate. After the installation, measurements of temperature, pH, biogas production, biogas composition and system functionality were made. The results of the study show that a biogas system with tubular polyethylene biogas digesters can be successfully installed at a rural household and that the most suitable feed material is a mix of cow and goat manure.

The aim of this study has been to create an understanding for the situation of an often forgotten group in foster care, the carers? own children.
