The number of inhabitants of the towns and city centers have generelly increased, concurrent as the population in smaller towns has decreased. In Stockholm, the migration is very fast and here is also the most populous place, if one compares with other Sweden. In order to respond to the increasing population and the pressure they put on city spaces has Stockholm's town a town building strategy that says "build inwards". It means that one stem seals the town with spaces and business activities in central locations. The increased population in the towns and the densification of buildings leads however to an increased pressure on parks and public places.

Den resa ni ska få följa med på börjar i ett brev till skolans prefekt Henry Stiglund där jag bland annat nämner två upptäckter under våren 2004 som jag blev mer nyfiken på och som jag hade en önskan att få fördjupa mig i. Dels var det en övning vi gjorde under genusdagarna på skolan och dels på sättet jag hittade en nyckel till min roll Trigorin i "Måsen" under workshopen då vi tog in de nya ettorna. Upptäckterna går under rubriken ?att få se världen på ett nytt sätt?. I brevet nämner jag också hur jag hade tänkt att gå till väga för att dokumentera mitt magisterarbete.

The contribution of biofuels to the total consumption of energy in Sweden must increase to 49 % in order to meet the goals for the year 2020 set by the European Union. In order to do so, improved information systems are needed to support the business processes within delivery scheduling between customers and suppliers.Enterprise Architecture (EA) is a concept to enable the alignment of Business processes and Information Systems. EA is the framework for the architectures of business, information and applications. With a comprehensive view of the architectures, an Information System aligned with the Business processes can be enabled. The first step in the development of an Information System is documenting the business processes.The goal of this study is to clarify a generic sequence of activities performed within the delivery scheduling process and the information needed to perform the activities.Data for the study was collected through qualitative interviews, first through a meeting with the respondent and after that a following telephone interview with in total 5 suppliers and 6 customers of biofuels.

Uppsatsen analyserar inledningsvis vad Method Acting innebär. Den ryske regissören och skådespelaren Konstantin Stanislavskij utarbetade i början på förra seklet ett system vars uppgift var att utforma ett skådespeleri som bröt mot normen av, vad han tyckte var, orealistiskt spel. Med naturalismen kom kravet att teaterns uppgift var inte att försköna verkligheten utan att visa verkligheten som den var. Stanislavskij besökte, tillsammans med the Moscow Art Theatre, USA i början på 1920-talet och presenterade sitt system för den amerikanska publiken. Några av hans lärljungar stannade kvar och började lära ut de nya skådespelarteknikerna.

Title: What shall we play? -A study of the importance of genre spread in music education.

Den här uppsatsen undersöker lärarnas betydelse för musik- och kulturskolornas utbud och prioriteringar. Den undersöker också deras attityder inom olika områden som skulle kunna ha betydelse för dessa prioriteringar. Undersökningen är gjord enligt kvalitativ metod, genom intervjuer med instrumentallärare vid olika musik- och kulturskolor. Det är mycket som talar för att musiklärare uppfattar att de har ett stort inflytande över beslut som fattas inom musik- och kulturskolan. För det första upplever lärare att musikskolan själv har ett stort inflytande över sin verksamhet och att kollegiet bör vara en viktig grund för de beslut som tas.

Sjöfarten är väldigt viktig i vårt moderna samhälle då större delen av det gods som transporteras i världen transporteras med hjälp av sjöfart. Ur miljösynpunkt är sjöfarten relativt bra då utsläppen i förhållande till mängden gods som transporteras är väldigt låg. Men trotts att de relativa utsläppen är låga så påverkar sjöfarten miljön rejält och ökade krav ställs hela tiden för att minska miljöpåverkan från sjöfarten.Genom ett relativt enkelt MATLAB program kan man modellera en propeller till ett fartyg där olika parametrar kan varieras. I programmet får man då ut en plot med propellerns verkningsgrad, nödvändig kraft och utvunnen kraft relativt hastigheten på fartyget. Detta gör att man kan optimera propellern till fartyget genom att ändra propellerns geometri och snabbt se vad de olika parametrarna betyder för propellerns effektivitet.Transport av bananer mellan Sydamerika och Europa sker hela året om.

The theme of this thesis is citizen participation in the planning- and design process. It turns to everyone that studies landscape architecture or work as landscape architects and I hope that it can function as a ground for discussions as well as a source for inspiration. Rågsved is a suburb south of Stockholm. Just outside the centre of this suburb, a small industrial area called Snösätra, is located. In a few years time the leaseholds for the small industries will expire and the key question is: What will happen then? This is my general concern and it was the main cause for me to start this particular work. How do you attend to a place that appears like blank sheet of paper? To an empty page that can be filled with an infinite number of different formulations.
