AIMS AB is a Swedish company that develops and sells inertial sensor systems. A new product is under research which basically is an aided inertial navigation system where unwanted drift is eliminated. This can be done by integrating a GPS reciever into the system and fuse measurement data from GPS and IMU. Such a product is useful in racing, where engineers always are searching for the optimal performance and the shortest lap times. Today the only feedback the engineers and mechanics get from their work is the driver?s comments and lap times.

Until the sixties potatoes have had a unthreatened Position at the Swedish dining tables, but then different alternatives such as rice and pasta have become popular. In 2005 the Swedish potato-consumption have more than hafted compared with the sixties, we have gone from circa 90 to 40 kilograms per person and year. This paper aims to provide those who are involved within the potatoe business with an overview of the attitude and behaviour towards potatoes that are being held by Swedish consumers. In order to reach to the conclusion, in- store interviews had been held with customers in the cities of Stockholm and Malmö. The interviews showed that the typical potato-consumer prefers to choose and in pick their own potatoes to a bag in the store in favour of the pre-packed alternatives. Based on the outcome of the interviews a number of conclusions could be drawn. The consumers were of the perception that the pre-packed alternatives were too big for their households.

This essay concerns the fantastic and its Position in narration. The fantastic's defintion is based on Martin Horstkotte's defintion in The Postmodern Fantastic and the essay focuses on the noncontextual aspects such as the clash between two incompatible fictional worlds and the absence created. Instead of the ordinary identification of the established fictional world with realism and our reality it is suggested that both of the colliding fictional worlds are fictive and that the established one not necessarily need to be realistic. Exampels on how the fantastic takes place on the syntagmatic level in a narration is drawn from the short story ?Samvetets fantasi? by Clas Livijn when analysed with Peter Brooks' closurebased narratology theory in Reading for the Plot.

Denna uppsats tillämpar perspektiven "black feminism" och de andra för se hur sexturismen har tagit sin form i Thailand efter andra världskrigets slut. Genom att använda sig av kvalitativ textanalys och diskursanalys har författaren kommit fram till att det västerländska inflytandet i Thailand har haft ett stort inflytande gällande sexturismen. Dels har Thailand försatt sig själv i en undergiven Position när det gäller västerländskt inflytande genom att tillåta ett nästan okontrollerat inflytande direkt efter andra världskrigets slut. Dels har Thailand, genom lagar och reformer, skapat en thailändsk kultur som är mer inriktad på att attrahera utländska turister än att visa den faktiska thailändska kulturen. Detta genom att förstärka och återskapa kvinnans roll i det thailändska samhället till en undergiven roll där det exotiska och primitiva, naturnära och sexuella har varit i fokus..

Begreppet managementkonsult har visat sig vara diffust och vad professionen innebär ärsvårt att definiera. Det faktum att managementkonsulter i princip säljer ett löfte om vadde ska leverera gör att förmågan att inge förtroende är en viktig egenskap hos en konsult.I denna studie undersöker vi hur den svenska managementkonsultbranschen ser ut ochvilken betydelse förmågan att skapa förtroende har. Genom en fallstudie på företagetReforce har vi kunnat analysera vilken Position ett litet managementkonsultföretag, utanett känt och väletablerat varumärke, kan ha på marknaden samt vilka aspekter sompåverkar deras förmåga att inge förtroende.I kartläggningen av den svenska managementkonsultmarknaden framkommer att deföretag som agerar på marknaden idag kan delas in i tre huvudsakliga kategorier;amerikanska, semiamerikanska och svenska företag. Det har visat sig att de olikakategorierna skiljer sig åt bland annat i avseende på vilka primära tjänster de erbjuder ochpå vilket sätt de arbetar. Managementkonsultbranschen är kunskapsintensiv och någotsom därför har uppmärksammats i denna studie är att företagen inte endast konkurrerarom kunder utan också om bra personal.

Dietary patterns has varied throughout history, both due to resource and cultural limitations. In this thesis, a study was conducted to establish the dietary patterns of eight individuals from an early Midieaval gravesite in Rambodal, Östergötland, in order to explain why they were buried there. This was done through stable isotope analysis on collagen extracted from bone and tooth on the buried individuals. The analysis showed that these indviduals had a diet that was mainly based on freshwater fish. This suggests that these people may have been christians, due to the fact that fish was not regarded as meat and therefore you did not have to abstain from it during periods of fasting.

The aim of the literature review was to illuminate the importance of nutritional management to patients who have sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and describe nurses responsibility and meaningful function in the nutritional support. TBI patients tend to be associated with hypermetabolism and hypercatabolism, resulting in negative nitrogen balances. The results reveal increased energy expenditure and assessments of needs energy requirements at the TBI patients. This study determining the route of feeding: enteral versus parenteral nutrition.

Bensimidazoler är en flitigt använd bredspektrumverkande substansgrupp antiparasitmedel. I Sverige finns det fem substanser (albendazol, febantel, fenbendazol, flubendazol och oxfendazol) som används inom veterinärmedicinen, varav en är en pro-bensimidazol (febantel). Däremot finns endast en substans tillgänglig inom humanmedicinen (mebendazol). Syftet med detta arbete är att reda ut skillnader och likheter mellan dessa substanser. Fokus ligger på kemisk struktur, kinetik, aktivitet, spektrum samt resistensläget i Sverige. Kemiskt sett är bensimidazoler relativt lika varandra då enbart substitutet (d.v.s.

Studiens syfte är att beskriva arbetsledares/samtalsledares upplevelser av vilka faktorer som kan underlätta eller försvåra för att samförstånd kan uppnås i ett utvecklingssamtal. Studien har genomförts utifrån en kvalitativ metod där sex semi-strukturerade intervjuer med arbetsledare inom en offentlig verksamhet ligger till grund för empirin. Resultatet visar på fyra huvudfaktorer som anses påverka samförståndet i utvecklingssamtalet. Beroende på om man som samtalsledare upplever dessa faktorer som underlättande eller försvårande för samförståndet, påverkas detta av om man som arbetsledare är individ- eller verksamhetsinriktad. Tre av huvudfaktorerna anses underlätta att samförstånd uppnås i utvecklingssamtalet.

The purpose of the essay is to investigate how the Position of women and girls in society can lead to a valid infringement of the right to privacy (art. 8 ECHR) by allowing the storage of personal data belonging to people who have not been convicted of a crime.

Background: In recent research literature, some researchers mean that companies in fast changing markets have to act proactively while others find that companies have to adapt to conditions and to react. This makes it interesting to study how software companies act strategically and also to study to what extent a flexible organisation is required by companies who proact and by those who react. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is the study how different types of software companies act strategically and what this requires of the company in terms of flexibility. Delimitation: The study treats only Swedish software companies with more than ten employees. Proceed of the Study: Representatives from four case companies as well as a consultant have been interviewed.
