The integration of small computer units in vehicles has made more complex in-vehicle functionality possible. To troubleshoot these more advanced functions, the diagnostic services need to read out more data from the integrated computer units, causing an increased network load. This has caused a demand on more efficient ways of performing vehicle diagnostics. One possible way to decrease the netwo
Diagnoser är kategorier som konstrueras, kommuniceras och upplevs inom en specifik social och kulturell kontext. Individer ställs innanför dessa kategorier genom ett klassificeringssystem som är hegemoniskt. De som passar in i kategorierna tillskrivs egenskaper som kan resultera i skapandet av ett subjekt som inte är förenlig med den normativa synen på vad en människa är. Det här är en uppsats som
Bakgrund: Varje år inkommer cirka 8 200 personer till sjukvården efter ett suicidförsök i Sverige. För att kunna ge bäst lämpad vård och behandling är det viktigt att sjuksköterskan som möter patienten har den handlingsberedskap som krävs för ett gott omhändertagande. Många sjuksköterskor på medicinska akutmottagningar och somatiska vårdavdelningar uppger att de har en bristande kunskap om suicida
This project is about creating a concept for a historical museum for the swedish furniture company Gemla AB. It will be a permanent exhibition located in connection to their factory. The reason Gemla wants to put up this museum is to give clients, students or the interested public a deeper understanding of the company and their history. My work will beto gather the parts in history that I think Ge
Carbon offsetting is one strategy to tackle global climate change and decrease the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. However, the strategy is debated and concerns are raised regarding negative impacts on the surrounding environment and biodiversity, the effectiveness and the morality of “buying the right to pollute”. The aim of this paper is to examine if ecological aspects are consider
In the past few decades Japan has experienced changes in its marital institution. Japanese men and women have started to postpone marriage and childbearing or remain unmarried, and the number of divorces have increased. Exactly the changes in marriage trends have been the point of departure of this study. The purpose of this study was to focus attention on Japanese marriage. Specifically, this the
Hot och våld förekommer ofta inom de särskilda ungdomshemmen och behandlingsassistenterna som arbetar närmast de unga, är de som är mest utsatta för hot och våld. Att arbeta i en miljö där risken för att utsättas för hot och hot om våld utgör en väsentlig arbetsmiljörisk och medför även stora påfrestningar för personalen. De teorier som tillämpats är Libskys (1980) teori om gräsrotsbyråkratin, Go
A recent publication introduced a new way to define all k-step linear multistep methods of order k and k+1, in a parametric form that builds in variable step-size. In this framework it is possible to continuously change method and step-size, making it possible to create better behaving adaptive numerical solvers. In this thesis general numerical solvers based on this framework have been implemente
Small ARM Cortex CPU based system boards, called controllers, are used in building automation for regulation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. A controlling project can incorporate several thousands of these controllers. The controllers communicate with a SCADA system over the TCP/IP protocol. For the purpose of testing the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system when
The Implementation and some mathematical properties of GMRES and weighted GMRES (WGMRES) are described. Numerical experiments originally performed by Essai (1998) are performed to compare the two methods. GMRES and WGMRES are used to solve a linear system arising from the Poisson equation and compared with respect to computational effort.
Tropical montane cloud forests (TMCF) are unique ecosystems that are frequently surrounded by clouds which increase humidity and promote the growth of bryophytes. Several dimensions of humidity are important for the carbon dynamics of bryophytes. Climate change is therefore projected to have a large impact on them as well as on the TMCF itself. The present study aimed to investigate the effects th
In our everyday life we live distant from the origin of life itself - nature. Dramatic landscape and fascinating views touch us in a way that few other things manage to do. It is something that make us recognize our powerlessness and the feeling of awe towards the nature. Experiencing striking nature is a way to create a deeper understanding of our own world and at the same time enrich our lives w
The Cloud is becoming a more and more popular expression and as companies learn what it is and the cloud services offered by cloud providers mature, more companies are looking towards The Cloud to satisfy their needs. This master thesis examines issues that can arise when moving an existing server solution to The Cloud and how to utilise the possibilities offered by cloud services with a cost-effe
Today, Swedish police authorities nationwide collect data of traffic accidents. The information is stored in a national database managed by the Swedish Transport Agency and is an important resource in the process of analysing and improving road safety. Literature studies in this thesis, together with earlier work by the author have suggested that the data collection process is in need of an upda
Automatic interpretation of reading from the brain could allow for many interesting applications including movement of prosthetic limbs and more seamless manmachine interaction. This work studied classification of EEG signals used in a study of memory. The goal was to evaluate the performance of the state of the art algorithms. A secondary goal was to try to improve upon the result of a method tha
This paper examines long-term interest rates and fiscal liabilities within EMU in the context of the recent sovereign debt crisis; where Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain faced rising interest rates in contrast to the rest of the EMU. An assessment of the short and long-run properties of long rates, fiscal deficits and government debt are estimated for 11 EMU countries in the time span 19
The informal sector is often seen as one sector with the potentials to transform the economies of developing countries if well harnessed. This is particularly true in the case of Nigeria where the informal sector creates employment opportunity for a large number of the labor force compared to the formal sector economy. However, it is also pertinent to bear in mind that the informal sector is often
This study will investigate and understand the social norms that resides within a globally operating organisation. Within this organisation, this study targeted the Human Resource department for its unique role and close bond to the company policy which can provoke ethical dilemmas that require a collective understanding among the employees and managers to resolve. The Krupka-Weber method is appli
