Detta examensarbete utfördes hos företaget Syntronic i mjärdevi. Uppgiften de ville ha utförd var en undersökning och implementation av ny funktionalitet i en redan existerande android applikation som de har utvecklat. Uppgiften i denna applikation var att undersöka möjligheterna till IP-telefoni, eller VOIP som det kallas, så att de kunde ringa varandra via applikationen genom datanätet istället för det ordinära nätet, samt att implementera detta.Detta examensarbete utfördes hos företaget Syntronic i mjärdevi.

Då mängden information bara ökar, så ökar även behovet att ha åtkomst till informationen lättillgängligt. Detta skapar då ett behov för ett gränssnitt som kan söka bland informationen. I detta arbete har det undersökts om en implementation av Vector Space Model ger mera relevanta resultat jämfört mot en enklare implementation som inte baseras på Vector Space Model. Sökningen utförs i en relationsdatabas med ett inverterat index, databasen fylls med data ifrån internetforumet Stack Overflow. Genom att bygga en sökmotor som returnerade två olika resultatlistor för varje sökning så fick tio användare testa och utvärdera resultatens relevans.

This paper provides an explanation of the concepts John A. Warden III describes regarding the use of air power and if this theory can be found, within the confines of an unconventional war. The U.S. ability to air power is overwhelming, however the right kind of warfare can force this great power to abandon their military and political objectives by exhausting its resources over time as it becomes increasingly costly, both economically, politically and morally, to wage war.

På grund av att affärssystem blir allt vanligare, infinner sig på fler marknader och kan i vissa fall vara kärnan i ett företag är detta ett krav. Examensarbetet är utfört på Infor i Linköping som tillhandahåller affärssystemet M3. Efter Enron-skandalen skapades flertalet regleringar och lagar som företag måste anpassa sig efter. Vi har undersökt vad som krävs för att tillmötesgå dessa krav och försökt hitta en minsta gemensam nämnare för flertalet lagar och myndigheter.

Throughout many years there have been discussions within the European Union (EU) regarding harmonization and improvement of accounting rules for companies with listed shares or other securities. The ambition exists to adopt, the within the union applied accounting standards, to those applied globally. These discussions lead the year 2002 to adoption by the council and parliament of international accounting standards (IFRS). The ordinance meant that all listed European companies have to adopt international accounting standards, accepted for application within the EU, for their consolidated accounts.During July 2003 the Swedish Government Official Reports issued a report (SOU 2003:71) stating, among other things, the differences and oppositions of implementing IFRS on a corporate level in Sweden, since corporate disclosure is regulated in Swedish law by Bokföringslagen (BFL) and Årsredovisningslagen (ÅRL). One of the main obstacles for the full implementation of IFRS is that a company?s annual report underlies the governmental taxation and an implementation of IFRS would affect this balance.

To efficiently examine volumetric data sets from CT or MRI scans good volume rendering applications are needed. This thesis describes the design and implementation of an application programming interface (API) to be used when developing volume-rendering applications. A complete application programming interface has been designed. The interface is designed so that it makes writing application programs containing volume rendering fast and easy. The interface also makes created application programs hardware independent.
