As our lives ever increasingly move online, the influence of social media is constantly growing. It has however proven difficult for legislators to keep up with rapid development of online spaces. Therefore, legislative control has largely been left to the social media platforms. To see if this is a good solution, this paper aims to analyze Twitters terms of use, rules, guidelines, and policies, i
The discovery of the Higgs boson h in 2012 further confirmed the remarkable accuracy of the Standard Model (SM). Despite this, some compelling excesses in multi-lepton final states were recorded in both major runs of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The excesses can be explained by the introduction of a model where a heavy boson X decays into a SM Higgs boson h and a singlet scalar S with Higgs-li
This bachelor thesis is written within the field of strategic communication, focusing on marketing communication and the concept of sensemaking. Instead of seeing a high involvement purchase according to the traditional and linear buyer decision process, this thesis suggests the purchase instead to be seen as a customer journey, which addresses the complexity of the purchase. The aim of the study
Society is facing diverse vital societal challenges, which has led to an increased focus on how policy makers should target these challenges. Innovation policies have gone through a development from firm based R&D towards a more systematic and transformative approach towards innovation. This research has investigated how policy instrument in the form of innovation programs have been experience
Most robots today can trace their origin to early industrial robot designs. Much of the technology that makes robots more human-friendly and adaptable for different applications has emerged from manufacturers of industrial robots. Industrial robots are by far the largest commercial application of robotics technology today. All the important foundations for robot control were initially developed wi
Due to increasing oil demand and serious global warming, a green power generation system is urgently requested in transportation. Electric/hybrid vehicles (EV/HEV) have been considered as a potential solution with great promise in achieving high energy/power efficiency and a low environmental impact. The important electric and electronic equipment in EV/HEV are the battery, inverter and motor. How
Over the past few decades, the progressive elimination of Member State involvement in competition has been considered as essential for the establishment of the common market. State involvement in competition can take many forms and may have the effect of privileging undertakings in which Member States maintain ownership. A Member State may through its legislation or acts, take steps to manipulate
This study is a qualitative analysis of how three political parties, elected into the Swedish parliament, through their texts about gender equality construct Sweden and the western world as democratic and developed. The result of this process is that the people outside of the western world are constructed as the Others, who are viewed as undemocratic and undeveloped. As theoretical perspectives I
Background Presona AB manufactures fully automatic balers and compactors for waste management. A simple and clear supply chain is wanted. High inventory costs and long lead time have been identified; the long lead time partly is due to insufficient supplier processes. The company is not satisfied with the stock turnover. The communication with the suppliers today is handled by fax which is time de
Abstract This study centers on organizations' ability to work with dialogue and feedback during organizational change. The aim is to examine to what extent dialogue and feedback contribute to the process of sense making. The study is based on a case study of the corporate energy group Eon and its current organizational change Cleaner & better energy. The empirical material consists of ten
Denna uppsats har utforskat praktiska angelägenheter för val och hantering av nyckeltal för verksamheten för att hantera miljöpåverkan från leverantörers tillverkningsprocesser för leverantörer uppströms i leverantörskedjan. Studien har genomförts genom intervjuer med fem framstående företag inom området. Forskningsresultaten visar att det främst är direkta leverantörers miljöproblem kring energiaThis thesis has explored practical concerns for selecting and managing environmental Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to manage environmental impacts of suppliers’ production processes upstream in the supply-chain. It has been accomplished by interviews with five front-runner companies. Findings show that companies primarily track environmental issues for 1st tier suppliers concerning energy use,
The Swedish political organization is subject for the investigation of this thesis, with regard to the realization of universal human rights. There is a discrepancy between the Swedish state's international undertakings in legally binding treaties and the actualization of human rights by local authorities. The local authorities are ruled by a complex function of both national and local govern
The purpose of this composition was to examine which international and Swedish laws exist to govern the protection of asylum seekers claiming persecution on the grounds of sexual orientation. Additionally I wanted to look at what the need for such a right to refuge would be based upon, i.e. why asylum seekers ought to be granted such protection. In order to fulfil my objectives I based my material
The following thesis is examining compliance with EU-law from a member state perspective. The variation in the compliance level between the member states from 1995 to 2005 is analyzed to prove the fact that the Nordic member countries during the measured time period experienced a low number of infringements. The infringements that did occur were resolved faster and more efficient in the Nordic cou
With China's open door policy in the late of 1978 and accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001, the progress of globalization has accelerated the comprehensive development of China's society, in which the progress of intellectual property protection just is a typical example, because the reform and evolution of intellectual property protection not only reflects the China's dev
This study analyses aspects of instructor behaviour and their possible effects on the ability of the participating crew to analyse their own performance following simulator training events for Flight Crews. Eight briefings and debriefings related to one airline’s training sessions were observed. The debriefings were recorded and transcribed. The analysis was performed using the “Debriefing Assessm
Producing electrical power with photovoltaic solar panels is very attractive as the sun constitutes an inexhaustible source of clean energy. However, in order to make it a better alternative to other energy sources, its drawbacks must be addressed. In particular, scientific research is very active to find technologies that increase the efficiency of the solar cells, or decrease their cost. Reducin
