The number of smartphones are constantly increasing, 2010 approximately 200 million unitswere sold globally and the figure is predicted to increase to 1 billion in 2016. The increased useof smartphones also carries many risks, for example many smartphones are connected to theInternet. This is a possible way for hackers to gain access to user devices. Smartphones are wellrepresented in research on its safety, while research on its use and users? awareness often leavesmore to be desired.

To increase the understanding of how individuals total life situation affects their stress level and health has lately more frequently been discussed in different contexts. Furthermore, it is important to have knowledge of power structures that exist under given circumstances in a society to get an increased understanding of how to structure the health promoting work to get the highest possible benefits. People?s work life is essential to their health, since we spend a lot of time at work. The aim of this study was to find out which factors that relate to nursing staff?s health and stress level from a general perspective.

This master thesis was written for Arla Foods and the result of the thesisserves to gain Arla Foods in its work with chemical hazardous and to bringnew academic results. The thesis aims to create a common methodology forrisk analysis with the handling of chemicals.The theories displayed in this thesis focuses on different risk managementmethods in order to build up a framework out of which a risk management toolwas created. The main primary data source consists of interviews held withemployees within Arla Foods at different facilities.The risk management tool can be found in appendix K.Available recommendations for how to evaluate risks with chemicals can befound at appropriate government agencies. These recommendations aredrawn up to suite small and medium enterprises and therefore are to narrowto make a good foundation for analysing chemical risks at large companies.With the legislation and government demands in mind, a tool has beencreated to fit a large company?s needs when managing chemical risks.

The objective of this thesis is to map the resources and methods used at the department OPPC, at AstraZeneca, and derived from that give suggestions on possible solutions that will increase their productivity.Mapping of the product flow, as well as gathering of process data, has mainly been done using observations, but consultation with the process technicians has also played a great role. Further have theoretical methods been used, based on literature studies, within the areas of Lean production and statistics.The work has incrementally gone forward since the steps taken has been restricted by the irregularity of production which led to the need of creating a fictive production flow. This has affected the lead-time calculations in the way that they are meant to give an indication, rather than an absolute truth, on how different methods described shall be used.The current state analysis showed multiple areas of improvement when defining capacity as value adding time in relation to total throughput time. Using the "standard scenario" as a basis showed that the actual production flow only constituted 50% of the total project time. Further it showed that the workflow contained more non-value adding activities than value adding activities, which is a result of how the work is distributed within the department as well as in the different projects.

During the years 2006-2010 Gotland University conducted seminars excavations in Västergarn parish on Gotland. Inside the wall a total of six house foundations have been found and a total of 127 combs have been registered. This thesis is based on a material study of the 127 registered medieval combs. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the combs and with their chronology illuminate in which period the society of Västergarn was active. And also to find out what the material remains can tell us about the place and its people.

BACKGROUND: A Pressure ulcer means much suffering for many people. It also leads to big economical costs for the society. Therefore it?s of great importance to prevent pressure ulcers. If pressure ulcers are to be prevented nurses need to have sufficient knowledge about preventive strategies.

Two haematological instruments intended for small animal clinic use were evaluated at the Department of Clinical Chemistry, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Uppsala, Sweden. The QBC-V and Vet abc were compared to a reference instrument, the Cell-Dyn 3500. Fresh blood samples were obtained from canine and feline patients from the University Veterinary Hospital, SLU. The QBC-V was used for 111 canine samples and 78 canine blood samples were analysed with Vet abc. From cats, 23 samples were analysed with both instruments.

The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze laws that completely prohibit abortion through a legal philosophical perspective. To demonstrate that abortion blanket bans cannot be seen as legally legitimate, the author has completed a literature study where she uses Robert Alexy?s ?Concept of Law? to analyze abortion laws both in general, and in Nicaragua in particular.Based upon Alexy?s ?Concept of Law? the author has identified three relevant key elements ? social efficacy, the argument from injustice and correctness of content - which she uses in her analysis. In order to apply these three elements on the total abortion ban, she then uses four different analysis tools - feminist theory, Human Rights, deontology analysis and right analysis. This has enabled a thorough analysis of the total ban on abortion that has demonstrates that such laws cannot be considered legitimate.By highlighting the human rights violations the law entails, one can conclude that the law has a social impact.

Problem: Riskforskare betonar att det är viktigt att kommunicera, däremot läggs det mindre vikt på hur det ska kommuniceras. Vi menar att det finns branscher som enligt oss är såväl outforskad som riskutsatt, där vi anser det finns en problematik kring hur riskerna ska kommuniceras. Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur risk kommuniceras i en riskutsatt bransch samt undersöka i vilken grad riskaspekten värdesätts i kommunikationen mellan organisation och gäst. Detta för att bidra med en nyansering av begreppet riskkommunikation. Frågeställningar: Vilka risker innefattar ett nattklubbsbesök? Hur ser den teoretiska bakgrunden ut till gästernas riskinställning?Hur kommuniceras risk och varför kommuniceras det på detta sätt? Metod: Vårt empiriska material utgörs av fyra intervjuer och två observationer, vilka har använts för att besvara våra frågeställningar med stöd av teori.

Bakgrund: Strukturerade produkter har kommit att bli ett av Sveriges populärasteplaceringsalternativ och enligt Euroclear är den utestående emitterade volymen cirka160 miljarder kronor. Utan att använda sig av komplexa modeller är det mycket svårt attbilda sig en uppfattning om hur många av dessa produkter kommer att prestera underolika marknadsförhållanden.Relevans: Studien utgör ett underlag för potentiella investerare i struktureradeprodukter. Den erbjuder även ett informationsbidrag till de företag som arbetar medfinansiell rådgivning. Vår uppdragsgivare, Finansinspektionen, har även de ett intresseav studien då de anser att det är svårt för en konsument att bedöma en struktureradprodukts villkor och egenskaper samt bedöma sannolikheten för ett visst utfall.Syfte: Syftet är att utvärdera strukturerade produkters egenskaper ur ett risk- ochavkastningsperspektiv och utifrån det erbjuda potentiella investerare ett underlag införinvesteringsbeslutet.Genomförande: Studien bygger i huvudsak på att ett urval av aktuella struktureradeprodukter simulerats mot historiska data för att ge en bild av dess avkastningspotentialoch risk. Vi har även genomfört en dokumentstudie på relevanta finansiella teorier ochkompletterat med empiriska undersökningar.Slutsats: Genomförda simuleringar ger en informativ bild av sannolikheten för olikaavkastningar i strukturerade produkter.

Scania?s discount rate - the return requirement of investments - refers to Scania?s WACC or weighted average cost of capital. The capital markets return requirement on equity and the credit market interest cost of borrowing is weighted to become the single discount rate, the WACC. The purpose of this study is to investigate which asset pricing model of APT and CAPM Scania should use in their WACC calculations. The company now uses a group WACC of 11 percent which is used in all company levels.

Intresset för hälsa har lett till att konsumenter efterfrågar högre kvalité där fokus inte längre enbart är pris. Allt eftersom kvalité hamnar i centrum är det intressant att undersöka hur kvalité skapas. En produkt som tydligt följer denna trend är kaffe. Denna uppsats ämnar undersöka hur svenska kafferosterier skapar kvalité på kaffe genom en studie av sex rosterier av varierande storlek i Sverige. Studien följer en kvalitativ struktur som utformats efter en av de dominerande teorierna inom kvalitetsforskning, Total Quality Management, där analysmodellen primärt baserats på The Juran Trilogy.

Syfte: Denna studie ämnar undersöka hur sambandet ränteförändring och risk ser ut, utifrån bankernas perspektiv såsom bostadslångivare. Hur påverkas bostadspriser och hushållens boendekostnader av räntan? Innebär nuvarande situation på den svenska marknaden någon risk och är bankerna i så fall medvetna om denna? Finns det anledning att se över nuvarande strategi för bostadsutlåning för att bättre möta ett eventuellt högre ränteläge? Metod: Sambandet ränta ? risk utforskas genom antagandet att kreditrisk drivs av dels sjunkande bostadspriser och dels ökande boendekostnader. Alltså studeras hur dessa två faktorer påverkas av en ränteförändring. Denna del görs deduktivt genom tillämpning av kvantitativ data på diverse teori om bostadspriser.

In this study we examine to what extent people with disability participate in television news and how they are represented. We chose to examine one broadcast per day of SVT Public Service news program Rapport and commercial channel TV4 Nyheterna (TV4 News) during one month using quantitative content analysis and qualitative discourse analysis.We found that people with disability are underrepresented in television news. In Rapport only 1,9 percent of the total broadcasting time contained people with disability and in TV4 Nyheterna 3 percent of the total broadcasting time contained people with disability. In the news people with disability were often represented as stereotypes, most commonly as victims. The focus was often on the medical aspect of the disability and on the problems that people with disability had.
