Business intelligence (BI) is all about making decisions. The purpose of many business intelligence tools is to improve these decisions by making data easy to visualize and understand. Qlik Sense is a BI tool developed by the company Qlik which allows users to visualize and explore data by filtering it (called making selections). At the time of this project Qlik Sense did not support visualization
Struktur studier av vatten kanalen SoPIP2;1 från Spinach. Syfte för studier av denna jon kanal i detta masterprojekt var att studera kristaller från så kallade membranprotein aquaporin SoPIP2;1 och sedan bestämma dess molekylära struktur till en hög upplösning. Detta kan sedan utnyttjas i vidare forskning för just detta proteinet. Proteinet som studerades kommer från Spinach. Detta protein överStudies of aquaporin’s are broad study field in today’s science. In this master project the membrane protein aquaporin SoPIP2;1 has been studied. The aim of the project was to obtain protein crystals with Lipidic Cubic Phase (LCP) crystallization and study their diffraction. If the obtained resolution of the crystals were satisfying the molecular map also would be studied and that would reveal us
Adaptive Wavelet Rendering is a sampling method used for ray tracing in order to render photorealistic images. The concept of wavelets and the so-called discrete wavelet transform is used to create a multi-scale view of the image when sampling. This allows the method to identify image variance on different levels and therefore to differentiate and appropriately handle variance resulting from sharp
This report summarizes the conclutions of a Master Thesis at Lund University (LTH) in cooperation with Scania CV AB R & D during the fall of 2010 and winter 2011. The mission is to improve the eating and writing ability (EWA) in truck cabs. A EWA offers truck driver to eat and write inside the cab. A EWA can for example be a countertop, a full table or a simple cup holder. There is great pote
ABSTRACT Calcareous sandy grasslands are among the most threatened habitats in Europe, primarily because of abandonment, acidification, eutrophication and fragmentation. Much of the biodiversity found in calcareous sandy grasslands depend on the availability of calcareous sand in the topsoil layer. As this sand is naturally depleted of CaCO3 heavy disturbances such as erosion or use of military
The pedagogic purposes and ambitions of both museums and archives are in many ways alike. Their intentions and purposes as institutions in our society are also in many ways very similar to each other, not at least when it comes to the fact that they are both working towards preserving and communicating our cultural heritage and our history. Still though the museums are much better known, recognize
This master thesis has been written during the autumn of 2007 and in the month of January 2008. It investigates how the Lean philosophy can be used in Warehousing businesses. Further it gives example of tools that can help Warehousing companies to become Leaner in their business. There is a contradiction between Lean Thinking and Warehousing practice today, since Lean strive at being just in
In the late 1990s, the member states of the European Union decided to establish a Common European Asylum System (CEAS), in order to enhance refugee protection. However, the emerging common asylum policies have been deeply criticized for breaching international norms and principles. In this thesis I argue that a discrepancy does exist between the international human rights norm expressed as the Gen
Financial exploitation of children worldwide is a global problem, causing consequences for both the national economy and labor market, as well as the working child who is deprived of its rights of education and normal development. Pakistan has several national laws in order to work against and to regulate the existence of child labour. Another important mechanism to fight the financial exploitatio
This paper discusses tying, a practice which, when used by large firms, has in the past been treated as anti-competitive and therefore undesirable. In the European Community, tying has been assessed in only a few court cases. The so called Tetra Pak II case was one such case. There, the court held that the defendant, Tetra Pak, was using tying in order to obtain market power by excluding its compe
The initiative to unite the economies of the Americas into a Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) is increasingly threatening the survival of the indigenous people making them coalesce into transnational coalitions with people throughout the region. The aim of this thesis is to examine how the threats posed by the proposed FTAA and the opportunities of transnational activism opposing it has infl
The aim of this study is to understand the local phenomenom of pits in pairs on the Early Neolithic TRB gathering place of Almhov, Malmö, by studying the distribution of the osteological material in regard to species and body part frequencies. The results show that it is probable that at least two routines to place the animals in these pits were used. One method was to dig two pits, excluding anim
Common pool-resources, or CPR’s which they often are referred to, are natural or man made resource systems such as fish stocks or irrigation systems. The size of these resources make exclusion of potential beneficiaries hard and they are also characterized by a high level of rivalry since extraction by one individual negatively affects others possiblity of appropriation. Due to these characteristi
The presence of the police in social media may be considered going against the otherwise factual, professional and impartial authority which they are lawfully required to maintain. This, as a result of social media communication tending to be less formal than traditional methods of communication. The aim of this thesis is to examine the social media presence of the Swedish Police from several dif
Human serviceorganisationsföreträdare hanterar flera, inte sällan motsträviga, viljor samtidigt och balanserar dem i relation till sin profession. Detta har tidigare beskrivits i termer av att utsättas för ett korstryck och har bland annat studerats bland sjuksköterskor och lärare. Fenomenet beskrivs vara påfrestande och påverka arbetstagaren i sin yrkesvardag. Mot bakgrund av detta var syftet medHuman service representatives often handle multiple contradictory expectations and requests. This has been described in terms of being subjected to cross pressure and has been studied in different professions, such as nurses and teachers. The phenomenon is described to be stressful and affects the employee during his/her every-day professional life. The purpose of this study was to investigate exp

This master thesis investigates how personal narrative and emotion might be understood as a feminist strategy in the work True Stories, an autobiographical project by contemporary French artist Sophie Calle. This is done through the application of Judith Butler's theory on heteronormativity, performativity and subversive acts, as well as Sara Ahmed's thought on emotion. The result shows ho
