My choice of topic for this essay is the habits of television and computer gaming among young men; mostly their opinion of male and female objectives. My vision of this, being a woman, I often think of the possibilities men have of choosing games where the female characters, in my opinion, often are exposed in a degrading way. To my help I have earlier works on the topic by media scientist Mary Flanagan as the leading authority. She writes much of the character of Lara Croft, and the way she could be an icon for the computer gaming girls of today, despite she is having a stereotypical body shape. I even want to briefly share my thoughts of the always imminent discussion about media panicking; and whether gaming giving the players positive or negative influences.

TV-tekniken har gjort stora framsteg under 2000-talet. Digital TV-sändning har möjliggjort sändningar med fler ljudkanaler med högre upplösning. För att öka taltydligheten i TV-sammanhang används just flerkanalsljud då man implementerar en centerhögtalare istället för fantommitt. Denna uppsats undersöker vilka fördelar detta får för just taltydligheten. Ett lyssningstest genomfördes där subjekt dels fick bedöma uppfattbarheten i autentiska TV-reportage och dels fick sin egen förmåga att uppfatta tal satt på prov i ett Tal I Brus-test.

Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka om DN:s och SVT:s medierapportering kring den väpnade konflikten som ägde rum mellan Georgien och Ryssland över utbrytarregionerna Abchazien och Sydossetien i augusti 2008, har uppfyllt de krav på mångsidighet och objektivitet som förväntas av svenska medier utifrån de åtagangen som medierna har tagit. Vår studie baseras på kvalitativa metoder i form av en kritisk diskursanalys av fem artiklar i DN och fem nyhetsinslag från SVT:s Aktuellt utifrån mistankens hermeneutik. Våra analyser visade att medierapportering har i många fall inte uppfyllt de krav på mångsidighet som exempelvis SVT åläggs att förmedla genom Tillståndet att sända television. Även DN har i många fall utmålat Ryssland som den enda parten ansvarig för konflikten och dess resultat. Individen har i den här frågan inte fått all den in formation som behövs för att själv skapa sig en egen uppfattning om konflikten..

Arbetet bygger på att de informationssystem som används idag men som blir allt äldre och därigenom inte klarar de krav som ställs på dem. Detta medför att informationssystemen måste migreras till modernare plattformar, då företagen dels inte klarar sig utan dess nuvarande funktionalitet och dels måste vidareutveckla systemen.Detta arbete tar upp olika sätt som detta kan genomföras på och vilka problem som kan komma att uppstå när detta sker. För att kunna undersöka detta så genomfördes ett antal migrationer. Språken som migrationen kommer att ske mellan är Visual Basic 6 och Visual Basic .net. Migrationerna kommer att ske med hjälp av ett migrationsverktyg, samt ett ramverk som i arbetet skräddarsys för just arbetets typ av migrationer.Det arbetet kommer fram till är att det sker problem vid användande av ett verktyg och även att det inte ger tillräckligt med respons på vad som gått snett under migrationerna..

Detta arbete undersöker om användarfall, en metod som normalt sett används för att utveckla och designa datorsystem, är lämplig att använda för att göra manualer som beskriver arbetspassen för sändningsproducenter. Sändningsproducenter är en yrkesgrupp som jobbar med nyhets- och samhällsprogram på enheten SVT Nyheter och Samhälle på Sveriges Television i Stockholm. Syftet med arbetet var att ta fram manualer genom att göra användarfall över sändningsproducenternas arbete med olika datorprogram. Samtidigt som detta gjordes så skapades en sammanställning av hur systemet som sändningsproducenterna använder fungerar. En jämförelse mellan de olika arbetspassen gjordes också för att se om det var något arbetsmoment som endast förekom under några arbetspass.

In order to answer the question in the title, a cross-cultural analysis of two countries was done. Countries chosen were the Republic of Latvia and the Kingdom of Spain. The need for this research was suggested by increased cross-border business activities inside the European Union, and the lack of previous studies involving new Member States. The aim of the research was to see what environmental factors influence advertising adaptation in the European Union, as well as to evaluate the applicability of a standardisation approach. According to the theory, there are three external factors that influence the creation of a global advertising.
