The ability to tackle NP-hard problems has been greatly extended by the introduction of Metaheuristics (see Blum & Roli (2003)) for a summary of most Metaheuristics, general problem-independent optimisation algorithms extending the hill-climbing local search approach to escape local minima. One of these algorithms is Iterated Local Search (ILS) (Lourenco et al., 2002; Stützle, 1999a, p. 25ff), a recent easy to implement but powerful algorithm with results comparable or superior to other state-of-the-art methods for many combinatorial optimisation problems, among them the Traveling Salesman (TSP) and Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). ILS iteratively samples local minima by modifying the current local minimum and restartinga local search porcedure on this modified solution. This thesis will show how ILS can be implemented for MSA.

Symmetrisk Lupoid onychodystrofi, SLO, beskrevs för första gången på mitten av 90-talet. Sjukdomen karaktäriseras av att alla klor avlossas inom en kort tidsperiod utan att andra samtidiga systemiska fynd ses. Den bakomliggandeorsaken till sjukdomen är ännu inte känd, men eftersom liknande histologiska fynd som vid systemisk lupus erythematosus, SLE och kutan lupus erythematosus, LE, kan identifieras har en autoimmun bakgrund misstänkts.Hörnstenen i SLE-diagnostiken är ANA-test, för att påvisa cirkulerande antinukleära antikroppar. I enstaka studier har man tidigare hos vissa hundar med SLO kunnat påvisa ANA.Syftet med den här studien har varit att göra ANA-test på hundar med symmetrisk kloavlossning och SLO, samt att genom journalstudier beskriva hur sjukdomen ser ut i Sverige idag.Hundar provtagna och testade för ANA är sju bearded collies, fem riesenschnauzer, tre Rhodesian ridgeback och en toypudel samt tolv kontrollhundar av raserna bearded collie, riesenschnauzer och Rhodesian ridgeback. Samtliga hundar var negativa för ANA.

I föreliggande studie har unga flickors attityder till ätande över tid studeras, samt sambandet mellan föräldrars attityder till mat och ätande och deras döttrars attityder. Detta gjordes genom frågeformulären Children´s Eating Attitudes Test (ChEAT) och Eating Attitudes Test (EAT), från IDA-projektet (Identification of Dieting in Adolescent girls) som delades ut i 40 olika skolor i Uppsala län år 1995 samt 2000. Resultatet visade att det var elva procent av 14åringarna som låg i riskzonen (riskbeteende = 16-72 p) för att utveckla ett stört ätbeteende, medan det inte var någon utav nioåringarna som låg i riskzonen (M 9år = 1,88 M 14 år = 4,35p=.001). Inget signifikant samband mellan varken mammans och flickornas ätbeteende eller pappans och flickornas ätbeteende kunde ses. För att problem med ätstörningar hos ungaflickor ska minska tycker författarna att det är viktigt att föräldrar informeras om hur tidigt deras barn blir medvetna om kroppsideal samt matfrågor.

Reading old handwritten documents can be a real challenge for genealogists, especially as some documents in Sweden are written in the old German alphabet that is not used today. Much research has been done on how to enable computers to read old handwritten documents, but computers have so far not reached the level of reading that expert humans have. The focus seems to be on the computers reading the document with or without the help of human experts, with the aim of making the documents available in easily read form. I have, however, not found any research on how computers can help non-expert humans trying to read handwritten documents. In this project I have focused especially on beginning genealogists as reading gets easier with practice, and you need the help more in the beginning. By conducting interviews and observations with genealogists I established that reading is an issue and that there are many factors involved that make it difficult to read.

Den här uppsatsen behandlar olika människors upplevelser och uppfattningar i och kring sinnesrogudstjänsten. Sinnesrogudstjänsten har växt fram ur ett samarbete mellan tolvstegsandligheten och den kristna kyrkan. Jag har intervjuat besökare från sinnesrogudstjänster i Staffans kyrka i Gävle [Svenska kyrkan] och Missionskyrkan i Hudiksvall. Deras upplevelser har jag kartlagt och delat in i kategorier enligt den fenomenografiska metoden. Min uppgift har för det första varit denna kartläggning av besökarnas upplevelser och för det andra att försöka ge svar på mina frågeställningar vad som attraherar i denna gudstjänst samt vad den har att erbjuda för dagens människor.

My objective for this project was to create a short but thrilling 2D-animation intended as promotion for an online comic book. The purpose of the project was to learn more about animation and graphics, to further my artistic skills and to learn how to work in Adobe After Effects. I also wanted to learn more about scheduling, project methods and how to handle stress. During the ten weeks of the project I have created the story, the storyboard, the character design, the backgrounds and the animation. The voice over was recorded with the help of a fellow student who also made the music and the sound effects.
