Words like pirates and anti-pirates are becoming common features in the cultural political debate of today, and the file-sharing phenomenon has become a more and more delicate and disputed subject. The fact that people are organizing in networks to swap computerfiles with each other has, among other things, led film and music companies from all over the world to initiate a number of anti-piracy organizations, assigned to protect the right to culture and information. The industrial organization Antipiratbyrån (the Anti-pirate Bureau) and the network Piratbyrån (the Pirate Bureau) have on several occasions been used to represent the prevailing conflict in Sweden. The purpose of this study is to apply a sociological perspective to the collective act of file sharing. Additionally, the purpose is to argue that the activity can be understood as a social movement, although it is rarely referred to as such.

SammanfattningDetta examensarbete har haft till syfte att ta fram nya metoder för automatiseradtestning och validering av information som skickas över CAN (Controller-Area-Network)i en tung Lastbil. Signalinnehållet realiseras i flertalet komplexa och distribueradesystem. En implementering har gjorts där loggad CAN-trafikdata från en HIL (HardwareIn the Loop) miljö automatiskt analyserats och testats.Testen har genomförts på två nivåer: funktionell och ickefunktionell. Där denickefunktionella delen har testat tidkrav på meddelanden med kompensation förtändningsstörningar. Dessutom har signalinnehållet testats för att finna ogiltigafelflaggor.

The purpose of this study was to examine what social workers include in the term "parenting ability". More specifically the purpose was to investigate how social workers view the parenting ability among parents with an intellectual disability. Furthermore the aim was to examine what difficulties social workers come across in their work with families where one of the parents are intellectually disabled. The study was based on six interviews with social workers that specifically work with children under the age of 18, and occasionally come across parents with this type of disability. The interviews were analysed using Donald Winnicott's terms "good-enough-parenting", "holding" and "the holding environment".

Detta görs i tre steg där vi inleder med att beskriva dagens situation för att sedan studera liknande skolor och slutligen identifiera utvecklingsmöjligheter.Metod: I studien så har vi använt oss av ett abduktivt angreppssätt samt en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi. Empirin har huvudsakligen hämtats från intervjuer med företrädare för tre hantverksskolor.Slutsats: Vi kan konstatera att Capellagården kan dra lärdom av andra skolors sätt att arbeta med samarbeten och nätverk för att öka intäkterna.Exempelvis genom att användning av benchmarking.

The project is a practical and theoretical test of IP telephony with Skype in order to form a base for a comparison between IP-Telephony with Skype and the Public Switched Telephony Network (PSTN). PSTN is the common standard that most of us use for telephony today. The objective for the study is to simplify the choice between PSTN and IP-Telephony for the Swedish private customer user group. The project is supposed to answer the following questions. - How easy is it to start using IP-telephony with Skype? - How is the quality of IP-telephony compared to PSTN? - Are all services provided by PSTN available and accessible using the IP-solution? - How are the usability and the availability of support with IP telephony? - Is IP-telephony a cheaper solution and in that case under which circumstances? Within the project a collection of practical and theoretical tests have been performed to be able to form an opinion on the IP-solution in the following areas, installation, function, quality, usability, costs, accessibility and security.

Denna uppsats är en actor-network-theory studie av ungdomars matvanor. Syftet med uppsatsen är att försöka förstå och undersöka hur ungdomarna förhåller sig till och skapar sina matvanor när de flyttar hemifrån. Jag har genom att titta på hur vanor bevaras, förändras och förnyas velat se hur ungdomar skapar sig en egen matidentitet och vilka/vad som är aktörer i denna identitet. En identitet som är en kombination av gamla erfarenheter och nya kunskaper. Jag använder mig av aktör- nätverks-teori som metod och teori för att beskriva fältet och analysera det.
