This thesis highlights the complex relationship between social movements and the mass media. The new social movements really have to struggle to get access to the media sphere, often enforced to use spectacular media strategies, and at the same time maintain their political messages. This struggle gives us reason to question the liberal notion of the media as a neutral arena for political communication and debate. In fact we argue that the media industry should be seen as a powerful actor and that the mass media serves to maintain and enforce an ideology that serves the political and economic elites in the liberal capitalist democracy. The Social movements that seek to question these elites and present an alternative, as they did during the EU-meeting in Gothenburg 2001, quite clearly gets far from neutral media image of the political actions taking place instead the are portrayed as violent or associated with violence and not presented as legitimate or believable political subjects..

Rapporten tar upp en kartläggning av nätverksövervakningssystem (NMS) som används för att övervaka nätverkstjänster och noder på ett nätverk. De egenskaper för NMS som utvärderas är vilket stöd systemen har för att övervaka ett flertal tjänster, hur god prestandan är för varje system samt hur god användbarheten i gränssnittet är. Resultatet visar att Nagios, OpenNMS samt Argus hade stöd för samtliga tjänster medan Munin inte hade stöd för nätverksenheter och Cacti endast stöd att övervaka SNMP. Det visar även att Nagios och OpenNMS generellt hade möjlighet att larma vid fler händelser samt att dessa två system var markant snabbare än Cacti och Munin. Användbarheten visade relativt stor skillnad i olika system.
