Det senaste decenniet har stadsplaneringen i Sverige till stora delar handlat om förtätning, särskilt i centrala och vattennära lägen. Området Vilan i Kristianstad är ett verksamhetsområde med dessa förutsättningar. Vilan ligger nära Kristianstads centrum, alldeles intill Helge å och i anslutning till ett våtmarksområde. Jag har i mitt examensarbete valt att arbeta med en del av Vilan, nämligen den nordöstra delen. Det är en stadsdel med dålig struktur och liten kontakt med den natur och våtmarksområde som området gränsar till. Syftet med examensarbetet är att utreda hur ny bebyggelse med bostäder, handel, kontor och verksamheter kan utvecklas i ett område nära ett riksintresse för naturvård, ett naturreservat, ett ramsarområde och vatten. Kan bebyggelsen integreras med våtmarksområdet eller kan de existera i varandras närhet? Nordöstra Vilan är min fallstudie och ett exempel på detta.

BackgroundToday a common approach to solve a complicated problem is to assemble a temporary workforce in order to solve the problem by working together within a project. One of the difficulties with working in projects is to maintain the planned budget. Working hours and costs are often exceeded. Many companies presume that any certain project will succeed, a presumption that leads companies not to anticipate risks involved in a project. In companies today there is seldom time for evaluation or moderation of a project, in order to have time for evaluation there is a great need for an adequate planning of the project.IntentThe intention with this study is to create a model for planning, budgeting and evaluation of projects within consultancy companies.MethodWith the help of interviews and discussions within the group Hamnar och Byggkonstruktioner at Sweco has evidence to present a proposal on planning, budgeting and monitoring been developed.ResultsA model has been developed to ease for consultancy companies to plan, budget, monitor and evaluate projects.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka på vilket sätt en världsarvsutnämning påverkar den fysiska planeringen. Detta görs genom en komparation mellan världsarven i Falun, Karlskrona och Visby. Intervjuer har gjorts med tjänste­ män inom kommun, länsstyrelse och länsmuseum. Utifrån ett teoretiskt perspektiv diskuteras hur olika aktörer i anslutning till världsarven ser på formandet av dessa. Teorin fungerar som hjälp för att analysera och sortera, samt att tydliggöra de olika inriktningar som förekommer i de tre exemplen. Vid en första anblick kan kulturarv och världsarv verka självklart, enkelt och okomplicerat.

Demografiska, kulturella och samhälleliga förändringar sker i stor utsträckning i dag i våra städer. I och med dessa utvecklingar finns ett ökat behov av mer flexibla bostäder anpassade för en bredare målgrupp. Kärnfamiljen har ersatts av singelhushållet, som numera är den vanligaste hushållstypen i Sverige och även andra familjekonstellationer blir allt vanligare. Detta ställer ökade krav på den kommunala planeringen och bostadsmarknaden att möta dessa behov. Men trots dessa förändringar står bostadsmarknaden och stampar och de bostäder som byggs i dag följer ett ideal konstruerat för fyrtio år sedan.

Fokus i detta arbete har varit att redogöra för olika aktörs medverkan i planprocessen samt utrymmet att påverka markanvändningen och den slutgiltiga bebyggda miljön i förhållande till ursprunglig vision från initiativtagaren. Vidare har kommunens möjligheter att med PBL:s regelverk inverka på och styra planprocessen samt länsstyrelsens och andra överordnande myndigheters roll studerats. Undersökningen har genomförts genom fallstudie av tre stadsomvandlingsprojekt av konfliktfylld karaktär i Linköping, Västervik och Göteborg. Med en teoretisk utgångspunkt i plankontroverser (konflikter som inte förutsätter en lösning) samt dessas uppkomst, utveckling och avslutning har planprocessens komplexitet och utrymmet för medborgarmedverkan och reellt inflytande benats ut. På så vis har orsaksförklarande faktorer till att plankontroverser uppstår, hur de kommit till uttryck och hur de påverkar det slutgiltiga resultatet och genomförandet belysts. Sammantaget går det att dra slutsatsen att plankontroverser är svåra att undvika i sin helhet. Kontroversernas huvudfrågor har i de studerade fallen kantats av bland annat värderingar och viljeyttringar utifrån olika aktörers preferenser, intressen och bakomliggande motiv.

To investigate if the student?s school centeent, and that planning of the school lunch is done from a health perspective. Qualitative research approach was used, including both interviews and observations, to view the purpose. Evidence was collected using a participating observer, semi constructed questions and structured observation. To focus on specific parts in the material, a directed content analysis was used. One large and one smaller school participated in the study.

The aim of this thesis is benchmarking of the program, based on dynamic programming, that earlier was written to imitate the production planning at TSS.This thesis starts with a chapter about the construction of the DP-program, a shorter description of one and each of the program parts and also a list over the in- and output data in each program part. The DP-program consists of six linked MATLAB-files that together produce an optimized production plan for the different planning groups at TSS. The program reads in and reformat the given data and optimize the production of the articles in one group. Finally it compounds all article production plans and give us a production alternative.After running the program with new data the result shows, resembling with previous results, that TSS could be able to make some distinct cost-savings. According to the program, a 50 % decrease of TSS production costs is possible. .

When a decision is to be made on what long term strategic forest management plan to use, consideration must often be taken to multiple objectives. Such decisions are very complex and a promising approach to handle them is by Multiple Criteria Decision Analyses (MCDA). The study is based on the problem that the MCDA that have been implemented into forest management planning have only had capacity to compare and evaluate a limited number of management plans; which means that there is a risk the most suitable plan is missed. The aim with this study was to test the applicability of combining the MCDA tools: the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for including consideration to multi-objectives into strategic forest management planning. The study was based on the process of creating and selecting a management plan, using Heureka PlanWise, suitable for all the major objectives found in the forest holdings of a municipality in northern Sweden.

This thesis has been done on a haulage contractor company named GP-Last (AB Gustav Perssons Åkeri) and the purpose with the paper was to analyse their traffic from Malmö to Stockholm and leave suggestions on efforts that GP-Last can use to increase their level of transportation quality. This has been done with two main questions, which problem do they have today and which efforts they need to do to solve their problems? Through a case study with interviews as method to collect data it showed that GP-Last had four main problems.        Not enough information about their freights. The transport planning unit in Malmö doesn?t have the exact delivery address when GP-Last begins to bring in the gods.        There are no clear routes.

Miljonprogrammet genomfördes mellan år 1965 och 1975 med syfte att bygga bort den rådande bostadsbristen. Under en tioårsperiod skulle en miljon nya bostäder byggas. Målet uppfylldes och cirka 25 % av Sveriges bostäder återfinns idag i miljonprogramsområden. Kritiken mot de storskaliga miljonprogramsområdena har varit stark. En förnyelse och utveckling av miljonprogramsområdena är därför en angelägenhet i många av Sveriges städer idag. Den primära uppgiften har varit att presentera åtgärder med syfte att förbättra storskaliga miljonprogramsområden. Uppsatsen behandlar enbart den fysiska miljön i miljonprogrammets storskaliga bostadsområden.

Transportation represents 10-15 % of wood supply costs. It is therefore important to improve efficiency in the transport system to decrease these costs. The aim of this study is to map the timber vehicle routing processes used by a sample of timber hauling contractors and to identify possible links between the vehicle routing process and service and economic variables. The study was carried out at Södra Skog in autumn 2008. 15 timber hauling contractors were sampled and interviewed about their work with timber transports.

Throughout the history, the theories which have shaped our cities have varied from time to time. We have gone from a city development characterized by spontaneousness, where commerce and people side by side shared the space, into a function-based planning where people and functions are being increasingly separated. Regardless the forms of planning the city design causes implications for those who live there when the physical environment controls were we live, work and meet. In today's society where `sustainability ' has become a watchword the current community planning needs to be questioned so we, in the best possible way, can meet future changes. Searching for new planning strategies is part of this and in this essay the term `mixed-use´ will be investigated and analyzed in terms of its social aspects.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate students' perception of their grades in relation to the grading criteria in physical education. To investigate this used issues: how values and experience rating criteria? How do students their teachers' planning of lessons? How do students grading assessment in physical education and what they believe is important? The method used was a questionnaire with closed questions. The answers were given on a six-point scale, ranging from 1 = "not true" to 6 = "totally agree". In a qualitative analysis of the quantitative material.
