This study has the purpose of looking at the current and future position of record labels from a context involving the technological developments, while the opportunities for the artists are changing. As the actors inside them music industry find themselves in an ever changing climate where traditional supply chains are threatened by new technology, the record labels need to change the way they work in order to maintain their existence in the music industry. The study has been conducted by interviewing a number of people involved in the music industry, by using a qualitative method approach. The conclusion of the study shows that the traditional way of doing business by treating music as a product that makes revenue is gone. Instead the labels have to take on new roles formerly run by third parties in order to survive and be profitable, especially since artists can now in control of activities that used to be controlled by the record label..

Semi-natural grasslands have a high biodiversity and host ecologically and economically valuable ecosystems and species. Restoration on these types of land is often done by removing trees and scrubs, mowing, grazing, changing the soil by removing nutrition or changing the structure of the ground. Another way of restoration is planting seeds of common grassland plants. By comparing 18 scientific publications I investigated if the restoration was affecting the plants in a positive way and if the effect was similar for insects. By comparing the publications, time seemed to have an important effect on insects. They needed time to recolonize restored areas.

Målet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka hur de metallurgiska och fysikaliska egenskaperna på direktreduktionspelletsen av kvalitetn KPRS (Kiruna Pellets Reduktion Special) påverkas av förändringar i nedmalningsgrad, järnmalmskoncentratets nedmalningsgrad med avseende på specifika yta och tillsatsmedlets mätt i procent mindre än 45µm. Försöken utfördes i laboratorieskala med upplägg enligt ett fullfaktorförsök. Järnmalmskoncentratet och tillsatsmedlet som används vid försöken har tagits ut från anrikningsprocessen, av detta material har sedan pellets tillverkas i en så kallad pot furnace som kan simulera pelletsprocessen. På färdiga pellets har det sedan utförts en rad tester. Då försöken med nedmalningsgrad ej var fullt genomförbara kompletterades arbetet med en multivariat studie av ATH.
