Internettjänsteleverantörer är en grupp aktörer som har ägnats stor uppmärk-samhet inom ramen för upphovsrätten. Dessa aktörer är nämligen, av flera anledningar, intressanta att rikta såväl civilrättsliga som straffrättsliga krav mot med anledning av upphovsrättsintrång som begås på internet. Den öka-de svårigheten att komma åt ursprungskällan vid brott på internet är en bi-dragande faktor till vaInternet Service Providers (ISP:s) have been widely discussed in the ambit of copyright law. This group of service providers is namely, from many points of view, more interesting to pursue, when it comes to illicit material posted on the internet, than the actual source of the content. The increased difficulty to find the actual perpetrator is a contributory reason for why cop-yright owners choose

The Sweden Democrats have been taking the Swedish political system for a tumultuous spin with an explosive increase in received votes in the 2014 governmental elections. As the Sweden Democrats are viewed by some as a nationalist, anti-immigrant and a racist party, the entrance into the Swedish parliament in 2010 was met by medial as well as public havoc resulting in the establishment of a politic

Facing the urgency to tackle societal challenges, social innovations come to the fore as promising avenues due to their potential of invoking change of systems. Scholars refer to transformative social innovations in this respect: processes through which dominant institutions within a socio-material context are challenged, altered, or replaced by social innovations. Alas, turning the transformative

The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism. It was Huxley’s firm belief that mankind needed a unifying system of thought that could motivate action and change. Transhumanism was also an attempt to unite a more traditional humanistic view of the human as containing some form of core essence The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism.

Someone who throws away their rubbish on a street-corner or in a ditch is guilty of sloth. This may appear harmless, but seen through the lens of waste management, sloth soon develops into a deadly sin that harms other people’s lives and health. Hiding and forgetting waste has always been a practice with potentially disastrous consequences; buried containers full of toxins will eventually start to

The present article explores the implication of fairness as a regulatory and competition law concept applied to digital and Artificial Intelligence markets, in light of recent law and policy developments targeting the interaction between data, market power and competition law. Much of the policy discussions, legislative proposals as well some emerging case law elevate the matter of “fairness” in tThe present article explores the implication of fairness as a regulatory and competition law concept applied to digital and Artificial Intelligence markets, in light of recent law and policy developments targeting the interaction between data, market power and competition law.Much of the policy discussions, legislative proposals as well some emerging case law elevate the matter of “fairness” in th

Popular Abstract in English A large variety of microorganisms are present in nature and have indispensable roles in recycling carbon, remediation of the environment, agriculture, and also in providing health benefits to humans. Microorganisms are microscopic versatile living factories that can consume several different natural as well as synthetic compounds for their growth and also produce differA shift from fossil- to renewable biomass feedstock for the emerging bio-based economy requires the development and adoption of new sustainable technologies that are more suited for transformation of biomass components to chemicals, materials and energy. This thesis presents investigations on the development of processes based on industrial biotechnology as a key element for the production of chem

Popular Abstract in English Structural components such as those used in gas turbines for energy conversion applications, are subjected to high loads at elevated temperatures. In order to ensure that the components survive under these conditions for a sufficiently long time, it is imperative to select materials with good high temperature properties like strength and corrosion resistance. Such materStructural components such as those used in gas turbines for energy conversion applications, are subjected to high loads at elevated temperatures. In order to ensure that the components survive under these conditions for a sufficiently long time, it is imperative to select materials with good high temperature properties like strength and corrosion resistance. Such materials are usually alloys with

In this work we aim to develop a video-based face verification algorithm suitable for real-time use in an embedded environment with limited space and restricted computational resources. We investigate face verification based solutions to envisioned real-time video applications that require open-set face identification. In particular, we create a prototype system for keeping track of the identities
