Participation of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) has been greatly promoted by the European Union (EU) and many CSOs in social policy sphere in particular have increasingly gained their participatory venues and consultative status vis-a-vis EU institutions since the 90’s. However, their expected role to bring even the most marginalised groups’ voice into European policy making process poses a qu

I detta arbete har en Minimum viable product (MVP) för en applikation utvecklats, som gör det säkrare att avveckla och ta bort endpoints för ett REST API. Tidigare arbete har visat att hanteringen av avvecklingen av endpoints i REST API:er är ett problem, där REST API:er inte följer protokoll för avveckling och borttagning. Applikationen är gjord för att tillhandahålla ett enkelt sätt att övervakaIn this thesis - a Minimum viable product (MVP) for an application aimed at making deprecation and removal of REST API endpoints safer - was developed. Previous work has shown that handling deprecations and removal of endpoints in REST APIs is a problem, with REST APIs not following deprecation-removal protocols nor giving the API consumers the information needed to properly update their software.

Inconel 718 is a widely used Nickel-based alloy in the aerospace sector. However, its exceptional mechanical properties make it a very difficult material for machining operations. Additive manufacturing presents itself as a promising alternative, as it would reduce the need for post-printing material removal by machining. However, not enough research has been done about the behaviour of this mater

Over the last decade, 1.8 billion people worldwide have been affected by disasters triggered by natural hazards and 740 000 lives have been lost. Due to climate change, these numbers are predicted to rise dramatically in the upcoming years. In disaster prone areas, remote communities and lower income countries are disproportionately affected and often lack the resources to prepare. Locating victim

In Sweden, about 150-200 children annually are born with some form of cleft lip and/or palate, making it the most common facial malformation in the country. Treatment often involves one or more surgeries and the speech development is followed up by a speech pathologist from the first year of life. One of the most common speech deviation for children with a cleft palate is hypernasality, which come

A review of existing life cycle assessments on food waste management was made with two main aims. Firstly, to make an overview of the assessments of the global warming potential from the treatment alternatives incineration, landfill, anaerobic digestion and compost in studies reported in literature. Secondly, to identify decisive factors in general and related to system boundary settings in partic

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Geografiska informationssystem på internet är ett relativt nytt fenomen som främst har utvecklats från ett behov att distribuera geografisk data, dvs utbyte av digitala geografiska data och tillhörande tjänster. Men det är även ett kraftfullt verktyg för att presentera information på internet. Detta examensarbete i naturgeografi syftar till att skapa en webbaGIS on the Internet is a rather new phenomenon, which has evolved from the need of distributed geographical data. It is also a powerful tool for presenting information on the Internet. This master thesis aim to create a web based GIS application with information on lime spreading and the situation concerning acidification in the county of Kronoberg, Sweden. The web based GIS application will be us

My purpose in this essay is to show how the staff in an institution for young women with a drug addiction, are looking at themselves as "normal" and the young women as "abnormal", and to analyse how sex and gender are made, in interaction with sexuality and class. The essay is based on interviews and a participating observation. The study is made on a compulsory institutional

Supersonic gas turbulence is a ubiquitous property of the interstellar medium. The level of turbulence, quantified by the gas velocity dispersion (σg), is observed to increase with the star formation rate (SFR) of a galaxy, but it is yet not established whether this trend is driven by stellar feedback or gravitational instabilities. In this work, we carry out hydrodynamical simulations of entire d

This dissertation analyses feminist activists’ use of human rights in post-revolutionary Egypt from 2011 to 2019. Drawing on interviews with feminist activists under three fieldwork trips, the dissertation investigates how: activists tried to implement gender equality in the country’s new constitutions, navigated the shrinking public space after 2013, sustained their activism against sexual violen

A large share of health-related information is today sought and communicated via the internet, including in social media. Questions have been raised about how this may affect health perceptions and behaviors, not least by enabling the communication of claims that contradict information from established medical authorities. As an example, knowledge claims about systemic side effects of the contrace

Abstract in FrenchDepuis longtemps, les anthropologues sont fascinés par les adaptations similaires et les différences intrigantes des cultures circumpolaires. Ces tendances ont été cartographiées, étudiées et interprétées sous différents angles, souvent à des niveaux sociaux ou spatiotemporels différents. Même si ces études ont produit d’importantes quantités de données, celles-ci ne couvrent pasAnthropologists have long been fascinated by the strikingly similar adaptations of circumpolar cultures as well as their puzzling differences. These patterns of diversity have been mapped, studied, and interpreted from many perspectives and often at different social and spatiotemporal scales. While this work has generated vast archives of legacy data, it has also left behind a fragmented understan

Endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC) have the potential to seriously impact ecosystems and humans. To date, numerous techniques have been investigated for removing such contaminants from water, including biodegradation, photocatalysis, ozonation, and the Fenton process. However, these methods are expensive from the perspectives of equipment and operating costs. Herein, we investigated the use of e

The aim of the study is to understand the perceptions of stakeholders in Uganda toward HTA and its role in decision making, in order to inform its potential implementation in the country. Methods The study takes a cross-sectional mixed methods approach, utilizing an a

The purpose of this master’s thesis is to gain a better understanding of how public librarians describe their interactions with Google Search, as well as their opinions on both the company and the search engine Google. The main focus of interest is the information seeking process that public librarians perform in response to questions from library users, and the alternatives and choices, such as d

Singapore has remarkably transformed from a small and poor Southeast Asian island into an affluent global city-state today. However, in contemporary times, the distribution of the gains from the nation’s progress and prosperity has been increasingly unequal. An understanding of the extent of income inequality is imperative to reassess the current policies and resource allocation decisions. The aim

Abstract We studied the effects of UV-A radiation and predatory fish on mantle pigmentation of freshwater snails Radix balthica. The results showed that UV radiation and fish chemical cue induce larger ratios of pigmented area on mantle, respectively and when combined. UV radiation and predatory fish chemical cue seem to affect mantle pigmentation independently. The ratios (0~100%) of pigmented ma
