Fastighetsmarknaden i Sverige omsätter ungefär 100.000 fastigheter till ett sammanlagt värde av 300 miljarder svenska kronor. Fastighetsöverlåtelsernas påverkan för individen och på samhällsnivå kan inte underskattas. Den digitaliserande trenden har påverkat denna bransch starkt internationellt och i Norge har lagändringar genomförts för att anpassa fastighetsöverlåtelsen till den moderna och digiThe real estate market in Sweden has a turnover of approximately 100,000 properties with a total value of 300 billion SEK. The impact of the property transfers on the individual and at the community level cannot be underestimated. The digitalisation trend has had a major impact on this industry internationally and in Norway, legislative changes have been made to adapt the property transfer to the

Introduction: This master’s thesis focuses on exploring improved alternative material solutions for antenna radomes used to protect Beyond Gravity Sweden’s satellite antennas in low Earth orbits. Background: As the environment in low Earth orbit is harsh, surface materials on satellites experience high levels of atomic oxygen, ultra violet radiation, thermal-fluctuation, charged particles and mic

Beginning in the late 20th century, public libraries in Sweden have been offering its patrons the opportunity to check out films just as they would books. Taking place over the last decade, however, the methods by which we predominantly consume films have gone through major changes – mainly caused by our increased digital presence and, more importantly, the extensive development of popular streami

Blockkedje-teknologin har skapat ett nytt verktyg för avtalsingående, så kallade smarta kontrakt. Smarta kontrakt möjliggör decentraliserade, digitala och autonoma avtal som exekveras av sig själva när ett antal parametrar är uppfyllda. En grundläggande fråga är om avtal enligt svensk rätt kan ingås på detta sätt. Av denna anledning ställer uppsatsen frågan om huruvida smarta kontrakt uppfyller föBlockchain technology has created a new tool for contract formation: smart contracts. Smart contracts enable decentralized, digital, and autonomous contracts that self-execute when a set of parameters is met. Can contracts under Swedish law be entered into through smart contracts? This is an important question to answer. For that reason, the paper poses the question of whether smart contracts meet

I denna uppsats undersöker jag mötet mellan AI och utomobligatorisk ska-deståndsrätt ur ett EU-perspektiv. Jag presenterar två föreslagna direktiv och diskuterar hur dessa kompletterar varandra för att skapa en lagstiftning som är lika effektiv i tekniskt komplicerade fall där rekvisiten är svårare att uppfylla. Jag undersöker också konceptet regulatorisk sandlåda, dess förde-lar ur ett utvecklarpIn this paper, I investigate how the EU plans to address AI in the area of non-contractual liability. I present two proposed directives and discuss how these supplement each other to create a liability regime that remains potent as the cases to which it is applied grow increasingly complicated and condi-tions harder to prove. Secondly, I address the concept of regulatory sand-boxes, its potential

Atmospheric aerosol particles serving as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are key elements of the hydrological cycle and climate. We have measured and characterized CCN at water vapor supersaturations in the range of S=0.10-0.82% in pristine tropical rainforest air during the AMAZE-08 campaign in central Amazonia. The effective hygroscopicity parameters describing the influence of chemical composit

Popular Abstract in Swedish I vår egen tid finns ett stort intresse för släktforskning och historia hos många. Men man tänker sällan på att även människor i gångna tider kunnat blicka tillbaka på sitt förflutna och fundera på sin egen plats i släktleden. Vad var de ville minnas och hur mindes de i en tid utan skriv- och läskunnighet? Det är frågor som ställs i avhandlingen och där svaren söks i deThis thesis examine how farm-dwellers in the Mälaren region during the late Iron Age and early Middle Ages created, transferred, and preserved memory by deliberately placing new houses and graves on the houses and graves of previous generations. Focus is on memory as a social phenomenon and culture-specific resource created by these deliberate practices. The culture-specific element is oral cultur

Background: As more people reach older age, there is a growing interest in improving old person's health, activity, independence and social participation, thereby adding quality to the extended years. Preventive home visits (PHV) programs for old people have received much attention in recent decades. A large body of research shows mixed effects, and argues that a home visit is a complex social pro

Sverige är ett utpräglat småföretagarland och mätt i antal bedrivs en klart övervägande del av företagen som enskild näringsverksamhet. Till skillnad från aktiebolag och andra juridiska personer, som hänför alla inkomster till inkomstslaget näringsverksamhet, ska inkomster eller utgifter för fysiska personer hänföras till endera av inkomstslagen näringsverksamhet, tjänst eller kapital. AvhandlingeSweden is a typical small-business country and, based on the numbers, a clear majority of the companies operate as sole traders. Unlike limited companies and other legal entities, which classify all income as business income, the income or expenditures of private persons are classified as either business, service or capital income. The main objective of this thesis is to systematically examine the

In his recent work, Eco abandons his conventionalist theory of pictures, which was heavily censored by, among others, the present author. In so doing, however, Eco now goes to the other extreme, claiming that television images are like mirrors, which are no signs. It is my contention that Eco fails to come up with a more acceptable theory of iconicity. Since Eco is one of the few semioticians conc

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling presenteras en ny typ av röntgenkälla baserad på ett laser-producerat plasma. Röntgenstrålning alstras genom att fokusera laserpulser på ett strålmål. Energin i de enskilda laserpulserna blott är cirka 150 mJ, men tack vare den extremt korta pulstiden 100 fs (10E-13 s), blir laserns toppeffekt mer än 1 TW (10E12 W). Den extremt intensiva laserstrålninA laser-produced plasma was generated by focusing 100 fs laser pulses, with an energy of 150 mJ, onto metal targets. The laser intensity was expected to reach 10E17 W/cm2. Radiation was emitted from the created plasma, with photon energies extending up to the MeV regime. The laser-based X-ray source was optimised, with the purpose of making it a realistic source of hard X-rays (>10 keV). Dedicated

In the discipline of archaeology death has always been a common subject. Graves and dead bodies in different states of decay are important sources of information. This dissertation investigates how our relation to death can be mirrored through some of the better-known individuals from prehistory in Scandinavia. Because of the character of the question at issue I start with three chapters in which

Abstract in French L’étude de l’effet d’amorçage syntaxique (syntactic priming) permet d’examiner la relation (potentielle) entre input et output dans l’interaction. On observe un effet d’amorçage lorsque la présentation d’un item (l’amorce) facilite le traitement ultérieur d’un item similaire (la cible). L’amorçage syntaxique ou structurel est un phénomène de réutilisation de la structure syntaxi

This paper re-focuses the Silk Road discussions from the position of contemporary art in Central Asian region. Since the late 1980s contemporary art in Central Asia boomed and it eventually became an alternative public space for the discussion of cultural transformations, social and global processes and problems that local societies faced. Initially the questions raised by many artists concerned i

The purpose of the study is to offer an interpretation of surrealism as lived experience or, more exactly, an interpretation of the ways in which the Surrealists themselves respond to and conceive of this experience. Thus, emphasis is put on surrealism as event and process, not as a historically limited phenomenon. The prime source of knowledge about this kind of experience, however, remains Surre

Popular Abstract in Swedish Interaktionen i fyra olika utvecklingssamtal från åldringsvård, industri och skola beskrivs i den här avhandlingen. Till grund ligger kritisk analys av samtalens situationella kontext, organisation och språkliga uttrycksformer. Resultaten jämförs också med hur samtalsdeltagarna själva bedömer interaktionen. Utvecklingsamtalen visar sig inte vara så ömsesidiga som de tiThis dissertation is an investigation into Swedish “utvecklingssamtal”, i.e. a kind of annual, re-curring staff development talk. The investigation consists of four empirical analyses. The first analysis concerns the situational context. The second analysis concerns the structure of the talks, the content and informal organisation. In the third analysis, I have worked quite closely to the theoreti

After their local extinction in 1954, White Storks (Ciconia ciconia) were reintroduced to Sweden in 1989. The founder Population for the reintroduced birds originated in North Africa, rather than from the closest breeding population in northeastern Europe (defined here as native). A number of wild storks have immigrated spontaneously, and a few others of native origin have been acquired for captiv

I denna avhandling utvecklar jag förståelsen kring avstigmatiseringsprocesser till att inkludera produkters avstigmatisering. Tidigare forskning kring avstigmatisering har främst fokuserat på individer, grupper, organisationer och industrier. Dock finns det en mängd empiriskt bevis som vittnar om att produktstigma har signifikanta effekter på marknadslogiker, inklusive enligt lag bestämda produktkIn this thesis, I develop our understanding of the destigmatization process to include product destigmatization. Previous research on destigmatization has primarily focused on that of individuals, groups, organizations, and industries. However, there is an abundance of empirical evidence showing that a product stigma has a significant bearing on market logics, including legal classification of pro

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling studeras europaskildringarna i James Weldon Johnsons The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man (1912), Jessie Fausets There Is Confusion (1924) och Nella Larsens Quicksand (1928) och hur dessa speglar afrikansk-amerikanernas roll i den västerländska civilisationen. I 1800-talets afrikansk-amerikanska litteratur figurerar Europa ofta som symbol för frihetThis thesis investigates the relationship between the “New Negro” moment of the early twentieth-century America and the Old World of Europe, as represented in James Weldon Johnson’s The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man (1912), Jessie Fauset’s There is Confusion (1924), and Nella Larsen’s Quicksand (1928). In the nineteenth century, Europe functioned as a symbol of freedom, education and art in t

The trace element selenium is of essential importance for the synthesis of a set of redox active proteins. We investigated three complementary serum selenium status biomarkers in relation to overall survival and recurrence following diagnosis of primary invasive breast cancer in a large prospective cohort study.
