Idag används intelligenstester frekvent i rekryteringssammanhang och då dessa tester har visat sig vara en stark prediktor för framtida arbetsinsats läggs vikt vid dessa när det kommer till olika urvalsprocesser. Av den anledningen är det inte ovanligt att arbetssökande får genomföra ett intelligenstest vid flera tillfällen i sin karriär vilket kan leda till olika resultat vid olika tillfällen. StIntelligence tests are frequently used in recruitment contexts since these tests have shown to be a strong predictor when it comes to future work performance. Therefore, it is not uncommon for job seekers to take these tests on several occasions throughout their careers with scores fluctuating to some degree. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is an improvement in the performanc

In many applications involving mobile devices it is essential to track their position. Moreover, it is usually desired, to perform this localization in a distributed fashion without using a central processing unit. In this case, only distance measurements to reference nodes which are in range can be utilized. It is proposed in this thesis to also use distance measurements to other moving objects,

The study considers the scheduling problem of identical parallel machines subject to minimization of the maximum completion time and the maximum tardiness expressed in a linear convex objective function. The maximum completion time or makespan is the date when the last job to be completed leaves the system. The maximum tardiness is indicated by the job that is completed with the longest delay rela

Digital control theory normally assumes equidistant sampling intervals and a negligible or constant control delay from sampling to actuation, so called input/output latency. However this can seldom be achieved in practice. In the computer tasks interfere with each other through preemption and blocking when waiting for common resources. The execution time for each task may be data-dependant and the

Voice recognition plays an important role in human communication and there is increasing interest in so called ‘earwitness’ testimony in the courtroom. However, research on voice identification or earwitness identification by way of short linguistic as compared to non-linguistic sounds remains in its infancy. To address this issue, the present study set out to examine speaker recognition from shor

The particularities surrounding the way decentralized multinational companies are structured and governed can determine the success or failure of integrating sustainability aspects into their units’ approach of doing business. The choice of pursuing a decentralized avenue over a headquarter-driven one in managing sustainability can have a significant influence over the coherence of Group1-wide str

We have conducted this master thesis for Heatex AB, located in Trelleborg. The company is the market leading OEM supplier of air-to-air heat exchangers. In a more and more competitive market, the demands on the design and the preparation for manufacturing are increasing making integration an important factor. Our work comprises the company’s design and preparation for manufacturing of cooling unit

The purpose of this project was to reduce the production cost of the drive unit from AB Ph. Nederman & Co product Flowline with 50 % to make it more competitive, and the result is this report as well as a fully operational prototype. During the process I have looked into all of the functions of the existing product and have tried to improve them. The function which I have put most time and eff

A granny job with soft issues, feelings and stuff - A qualitative study of men in a female-dominated profession The purpose of this study was to examine how professional social workers and students in social work education relates to and understands the idea that social work is considered feminine. Another aspect considered in this study is how the widespread predominance of women in social work

This thesis examines how consumers perceive race representation by iconic brands, aiming to bridge the knowledge gap in the areas of cultural branding, consumer culture, and ethics withi sustainability. Currently, there is limited research on the intersection of cultural branding and ethics within sustainability, particularly regarding racial representation. Given the growing importance of ethics

Det övergripande syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka läspraktiken Shared Readings möjligheter och begränsningar som läsfrämjande arbetssätt inom svensk gymnasieskola. Shared Reading är en läspraktik som fokuserar på det sociala och personliga i läsningen. Under ledning av en utbildad läsledare träffas Shared Reading-grupper regelbundet och läser en eller ett par utvalda texter högt. Under läsTranslated title – When we talk about it, I start to understand: Shared Reading as a reading promotion in upper secondary school. The overarching aim of this study is to clarify the possibilities and limitations of the reading method Shared Reading as a reading promotion method in Swedish upper secondary schools. Shared Reading is a reading method that focuses on the social and personal aspects o

This thesis studies the possibility of estimating the ambient temperature around a mobile phone using its internal temperature sensors. The thesis aims to develop and evaluate ambient temperature models that use internal temperature sensors within the device and, from a manufacturer’s perspective, investigate if the models for ambient temperature can be enhanced by tailoring them to the internals

The Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera is a type of camera that covers large areas, up to 360°, in addition to zoom. Some of these cameras are susceptible to tampering, which means that an additional angle measurement feedback is necessary to detect such attempts. This thesis has evaluated the possibility of using MEMS-based IMUs to solve this problem. An advantage of such a system over other solutions, s

Cortical sensory processing is greatly impacted by internally generated activity. But controlling for that activity is difficult since the thalamocortical network is a high-dimensional system with rapid state changes. Therefore, to unwind the cortical computational architecture there is a need for physiological ‘landmarks’ that can be used as frames of reference for computational state. Here we us

Prokaryotic Argonaute proteins (pAgos) from the long-A clade are stand-alone immune systems that use small interfering DNA (siDNA) guides to recognize and cleave invading plasmid and virus DNA. Certain long-A pAgos are co-encoded with accessory proteins with unknown functions. Here, we show that cyanobacterial long-A pAgos act in conjunction with Argonaute-associated Cas4 family enzyme 1 (ACE1). S

We present the data from the Insect Biome Atlas project (IBA), characterizing the terrestrial arthropod faunas of Sweden and Madagascar. Over 12 months, Malaise trap samples were collected weekly (biweekly or monthly in the winter, when feasible) at 203 locations within 100 sites in Sweden and weekly at 50 locations within 33 sites in Madagascar; this was complemented by soil and litter samples fr

Channel sounding is essential for the development of radio systems. One flexible strategy is the switched-array-based channel sounding, where antenna elements are activated at different time instants to measure the channel spatial characteristics. Although its hardware complexity is decreased due to fewer radio-frequency (RF) chains, sequentially switching the antenna elements can result in aliasi
