This doctoral thesis explores the implications of establishing tradable certificate schemes for improving energy efficiency (so-called ‘Tradable White Certificate’ [TWC] schemes). Carrying out different case studies, a set of complementary evaluation methods is applied in conducting ex-ante and ex-post evaluation studies. To analyse the attributes and complexities of TWC schemes, the thesis focuse
This ethnographic study shows that women’s knowledge and practices involving food in Japanese Buddhist contexts circulate as gendered currency. It emphasizes how what we term “food literacy” cultivates aesthetic and affective senses of belonging among Buddhist practitioners. We argue that this embodied knowledge helps women negotiate their experiences of Buddhism and show how these experiences art
The initial purpose of this study is to investigate and clarify the function and debate in Swedish policy on cybersecurity and cyber defense. How does it work and what threats does the development of digitalisation pose when it comes to both societal functions and everyday services? Cyber security and cyber defense is a relatively new area of research compared with many other study objects wit
Den här texten beskriver processen under vilken jag studerat mig själv som improvisationsmusiker i formatet solopiano. Jag undersöker hur jag skapar bästa möjliga förutsättningar för att känna mig både fri, inspirerad och motiverad, när jag inte får någon musikalisk information från andra medmusiker. Med hjälp av etablerandet av strikta ramar och begränsningar av olika karaktär har jag genomfört iThis paper describes the process during which I’ve studied myself as an improvisational musician in the format of solo piano. I examine in what way I can create the best possible conditions for myself to feel both free, inspired and motivated, when I’m not receiving any musical information from fellow musicians. With the help of different kinds of strict frames and limitations, I have performed im
Instance-level semantic segmentation refers to the task of assigning each pixel in an image an object class and an instance identity label. Due to its complexity, this problem has received little attention by the research community in the past. However, owing to the recent successes of deep learning technology, solving it suddenly seems possible. Starting from an initial pixel-level semantic segme
In Sweden social services has the overall responsibility for its youth within their municipality. Moreover, social workers have a responsibility to conduct an inquiry if there are suspicions of a youth getting harmed or harming oneself. The inquiry carries an exercise of power and authority since it can lead to the youth getting placed outside of the home. Within the Swedish historical context of
Five Xantha-m chlorophyll-deficient mutants which are lethal after the seedling stage have been already discovered in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and a candidate gene, SecA1, was recently identified by Bulked segregant analysis (BSA). SecA1 protein participates in the stroma-to-lumen protein transfer across the thylakoid membrane. In this study, the Xantha-m gene was analyzed. Western blotting exp
Complex problem spaces, such as those addressed by knowledge management or systems analysis projects, call for complex methods of inquiry. A phenomenon in contextual analysis means that there is a need to go beyond consensus and recognized ‘best practice’. As part of a complex method, for contextual analysis, inter-analysis may be conducted, in which individuals explore one another’s perspectives

This study aims to examine the challenges and practices of staff working at accommodations regulated by the Swedish Act concerning support and service for persons with certain functional impairments (LSS) when working with women with disabilities who have suffered from violence. Previous research shows that women with disabilities are at a greater risk of being victims of violence. Despite this kn
This thesis explores the conditions to improve collaborative behaviour between organizations in crisis response management. It takes an explorative approach and begins by identifying several challenges to interorganizational collaboration. A systematic review of the international scientific literature in conjuction with semi-structured interviews with crisis management professionals in civil-milit
The purpose of this article is to outline the basic properties of the gender system in Swedish. I argue that there are two gender dimensions: one grammatical and one semantic. The two systems are independent of each other, but they interact. Crucially, the pronouns den (it.common) and det (it.neuter) can be used both as grammatical and semantic pronouns. The locus of semantic pronouns (as well as
Five acute leukaemia or highly malignant lymphoma patients at a hospital in southern Sweden were interviewed about their daily living problems, their coping strategies and their opinions about the nursing care they received during the active phase of their treatment. In addition the EORTC QLQ-C30, the Global Life Quality and the Sense of Coherence scales were administered. The data were analysed f
The Spanish fiscal system underwent profound reforms between 1977 and 1986, in close connection to the transition from dictatorship to democracy. These were meant to bring the country towards the welfare state model of its European neighbours. Some practical results in terms of progressivity and redistribution, however, were not outstanding, and inequality did not significantly decrease after demo
The current virtualization solution in the Cloud widely relies on hypervisor-based technologies. Along with the recent popularity of Docker, the container-based virtualization starts receiving more attention for being a promising alternative. Since both of the virtualization solutions are not resource-free, their performance overheads would lead to negative impacts on the quality of Cloud services
