This thesis studies the effect of digitalization on firm performance. More specifically, it investigates whether digitally mature firms outperform their less digitally mature peers. My analysis is based on literature on information technology, information and digital systems, and digitalization in general. I assess digital maturity through a suitable proxy. With data from listed Swedish firms, I d

This paper addresses the problems associated with ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emission cut-off targets set for cities in recent years. Even though many cities have adopted an active approach to sustainability issues and climate change mitigation, they often lack appropriate and effective tools for achieving the cut-off targets. The primary purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the utilisation

In its latest assessment report the IPCC stresses the need for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to counterbalance residual emissions to achieve net zero carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas emissions. There are currently a wide variety of CDR measures available. Their potential and feasibility, however, depends on context specific conditions, as among others biophysical site characteristics, or availabili

Denna uppsats är ett kulturanalytiskt forskningsprojekt som syftar till att förstå hur sociala och kulturella processer i olika rum i staden bidrar till upplevelsen av ofrivillig ensamhet. Uppsatsen undersöker den ofrivilliga ensamheten i olika skalor i staden, från bostaden, kvarteret, ut i bostadsområdet och vidare ut i staden. Detta uppnås genom att använda ett fenomenologiskt ramverk som analyThis thesis is a cultural analytical research project that aims to understand how social and cultural processes in spaces within the city contribute to the experience of loneliness. The thesis explores loneliness at different layers of the city, from housing, the neighbourhood, to the district and the wider city scale. This is achieved by using a phenomenological framework that analyses the indivi

Popular Abstract in English This thesis is concerned with the efficient generation of ultra-short light pulses, far beyond the visible spectral range. Such light pulses can reach durations below 100 attoseconds, where one attosecond is one billionth of a billionth of a second. Why do we want to generate such extreme light pulses? Our knowledge of basic processes in physics and chemistry is to aHigh-order harmonic generation (HHG) provides the basis for attosecond light sources delivering coherent pulses in the extreme ultraviolet spectral region. Such light sources are employed for a variety of applications within imaging, attosecond spectroscopy, and high-precision frequency metrology. However, the rather low efficiency of the HHG process, which implies a limited pulse energy and repet

Följderna av narkotikamissbruk kostar samhället stora summor pengar varje år. Att beräkna den exakta storleken på dessa summor är omöjligt, eftersom stora delar av den narkotikarelaterade verksamheten är olaglig. De kostnadsberäkningar man kan göra blir ungefärliga uppskattningar. Ändå är det viktigt att försöka, eftersom den kunskap man har om kostnaderna för narkotikamissbrukets konsekvenser utg

Semiotics is generally conceived as being opposed to phenomenology, but such an opposition can only result from taking too much for granted, about both phenomenology and semiotics. While recognising that semiotics and phenomenology are historically different traditions, the present essay suggests that these traditions have a lot in common and that their very differences may give rise to fruitful p

This paper explores the dilemmas of upward social mobility from the perspective of opting out of conventional middle-class aspirations in search of better lives. East Asian education systems are globally renowned for their high academic standards and for producing students who score at the top on international assessment tests and rankings. It is well established in previous research that (middle-
