Ericsson?s factory in Kumla, Modules Kumla, became a hub for radio modules and micro base stations, which enables mobile communication through radio base stations, in 2004. Because of this the factory focuses more on the logistics operations. This has led to a need to be able to plan the capacity for the materials handling system. This master thesis has therefore been performed at Modules Kumla to develop a capacity calculation model for the material handling flow during the autumn of 2005.The work has contained a mapping of the material handling flow regarding to which activities was performed and how much time they consumed.

Hållbarhet är något som idag a?r ett allma?nt begrepp, det a?r na?got som ma?nga i sina vardagliga liv har anammat vad det ga?ller att till exempel handla ekologiska varor och sopsortera. Men hur ta?nker vi na?r det kommer till resande, har vi samma krav pa? att turismindustrin ska vara ha?llbar och ekologisk som vi har pa? det vardagliga utbudet? I denna kandidatuppsats har vi valt att titta pa? ha?llbarhet och ekoturism i Sverige. Syftet med uppsatsen a?r att titta pa? hur olika fo?retag arbetar med ha?llbar utveckling vad det ga?ller turism och hur de ser pa? den utveckling som har skett de senaste a?ren.

The increase in sales of the so called smart phones has meant that there has also been a requirement to determine new applications for which they are suitable. One of the largest platforms for smart phones is Android and the task of this thesis is to develop an application for a company that wishes to create interactive radio for the Internet. In addition to ordinary radio features, the company would like the application to be able to present images and a small web page called Canvas. The overall aim ,of this thesis, is to build a fully functional media player that is compatible with the majority of the commonly used Android based mobile units. To fulfill the overall aim, nine explicit goals were targeted.

Denna studie unders?ker huruvida r?rlig ers?ttning p?verkar ett svenska f?retags framg?ng genom finansiella incitamentprogram. Anv?ndandet av dessa typer av incitamentprogram har ?kat i Sverige p? senare tid vilket skapat upphov till nyfikenhet kring ?mnet. Individuell kompensation har l?nge fungerat som motivation f?r arbete att prestera b?ttre och d?rmed gynna f?retaget och dess intressenter.

Syftet med va?r underso?kning var att underso?ka hur va?l fastighetsma?klarfo?retag lyckats skapa en medvetenhet, acceptans och engagemang fo?r fo?retagets varuma?rke hos sina ansta?llda. Vi har i studien a?ven studerat organisationskulturens roll i byggandet av ?corporate identity?. Va?r underso?kning har skett genom en kvalitativ metod och med halvstrukturerade intervjuer.

Detta examensarbete har genomförts på uppdrag av Totalförsvarets Forskningsinstitut. Examensarbetet är ett av fyra delprojekt i projektet Telekommunikationer för strid i urban miljö. Projektet syftar till att ge förslag på metoder och utrustning som kan underlätta för soldaten på taktiskt nivå, i Försvarsmaktens insatsförband, genom att förbättra informationsinhämtning och -överföring.Syftet med examensarbetet är att i en praktisk demonstration visa nyttan med MIMOsystem antingen genom ökad kapacitet eller genom ökad tillgänglighet.Examensarbetet är uppdelat i tre olika delar: förstudie, utveckling av teknikdemonstrator i hårdvara samt demonstrationer och presentationer. Demonstratorn är byggd medGNU Radio mjukvara, som körs på två Linux-maskiner, med Universal Software Radio Peripheral som RF hårdvara. För att visa fördelarna med MIMO har spatiell diversitet implementerats i en mottagare.Implementationen visar att bitfelshalten reduceras till en tredjedel jämfört med en SISOmottagare..

Den 15 april 2013 presenterade regeringen ett fo?rslag till nya regler ga?llande beskattning av utdelning och kapitalvinst pa? kvalificerade andelar i fa?mansfo?retag. Dessa regler a?terfinns i IL 57 kap. och kallas fo?r 3:12-reglerna.

In many regulated rivers, authorities have stocked hatchery salmon to compensate for loss of wild populations. However, hatchery fish have not always behaved as wild fish do, and stocking them has not always fully compensated for the loss of wild fish. The purpose of this study was to compare swimming behaviour in the river before spawning, the choice of spawning areas and body size between wild and hatchery-reared salmon in the river Klarälven. Salmon behaviour in the river before spawning was analyzed using radio telemetry. The salmon were caught at Forshaga power plant, radio-tagged and returned to Klarälven at Ekshärad, 107 km from the river?s mouth.

Radio Frequency Identification, RFID, is a convenient way to enable contactless identification which does not require any physical nor optical contact. As with any radio-based communication the signal can be intercepted, thus making the technology vulnerable to several kinds of attacks. Interception of communication is not the only threat. Since RFID tags might contain personal information or information that will grant the owner access to secure areas, skimming and spoofing attacks are also major threats against this technology. In this thesis report,  the perspective of an adversary is portrayed in an RFID-enabled environment by presenting where RFID is used and how it could be abused.

Sweden?s most trusted news distributor, Sveriges Radio (Swedish Public Service radio broadcaster), has high ambitions with the journalism it broadcasts ? especially when it comes to gender equality and diversity. This thesis examines how gender is constructed in Dagens Eko (Today?s Echo) to find if and how power structures are expressed language-wise. Queer theory is used to look at how gender is constructed and how one can look at, and question, gender and gender hierarchies.

Uppsatsens utga?ngspunkt har varit universitets- och ho?gskolestudenters stress info?r det kommande arbetslivet da?r det ga?ller att vara sa? attraktiv som mo?jligt fo?r deras fo?rsta arbetsgivare. Att vara attraktiv handlar ba?de om meriterna som finns pa? en persons CV (Curriculum vitae) men samtidigt speglas ocksa? en person pa? sitt personliga brev. Uppsatsens syfte har varit att nyansera bilden fo?r de stressade studenterna och fo?rdjupa kunskapen kring hur HR-personer och fo?retag ba?de praktiskt och teoretiskt ga?r tillva?ga na?r de rekryterar nyexaminerade studenter.

Fo?retag och organisationer har individuella uppla?gg fo?r hur de arbetar med feedback, det a?r inte garanterat att na?gon sto?rre vikt la?ggs vid feedback, trots att det utgo?r en va?rdefull resurs. Denna studie identifierar vad som utma?rker en bra respektive mindre bra feedbackprocess fo?r den enskilda medarbetaren och underso?ker hur ett fo?retags riktlinjer och arbetssa?tt pa?verkar medarbetarens mo?jligheter att fa? bra feedback. Fo?r att underso?ka detta har tva? fallfo?retag anva?nts, konsultfo?retagen Accenture och Frontwalker.

A large number of rivers in northern Sweden have hydropower developments that cause negative effects on both up- and downstream migrations of anadromous species like Atlantic salmon. So far, most attention has focused on the hindrances of adult fish during their upstream spawning migration. However, since turbines in power stations cause losses on downstream passing fish, the focus on negative effects on smolts has increased. The aim of this study was to compare three different causes of losses of salmon smolts passing downstream through a power station area in the flow-controlled River Åbyälven in northern Sweden.A total of 61 wild salmon smolts were caught and radio-tagged in the River Åbyälven during their downstream migration in June 2009. The salmon smolts were released at three locations, 1.1 km upstream from the power station, in the turbine intake and in the upper part of a fishway, acting both for up- and downstream fish passage.

Embedded Systems Lab at Umeå University is currently part of a research project with the purpose to examine the behavior of dairy cows inside a barn. Each cow needs to be tracked with a precision of 50 cm, and since GPS-technique has poor functionality at indoor environments, an indoor positioning system needs to be developed.Embedded Systems Lab has already developed an indoor positioning system using IR-light and radio, but since this system demands extensive infrastructure and is rather expensive, an alternate positioning system using ultrasonic pulses and radio is being examined.In this report the range, beam angle and current consumption of ultrasonic transmitters- and receivers are investigated. Three different driver stages for the transmitter is tested, and two amplifier solutions for the receiver. The report also describes how the length of the transmitted ultrasonic pulse affects the received signal, accessibility of a ?shadowed? signal, and the effect of different sound frequency..
