The purpose of this thesis is to function as a path to further discussion regarding human rights and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the court proceedings. Artificial intelligence technology has become a highly relevant topic to many parts of our lives. AI is used and will be used in different ways as a part of the court proceedings; namely, for collecting and sorting out information, s
This thesis contributes to the existing literature by examining the effect of oil prices on floating exchange rates of oil dependent countries. I conduct empirical tests on monthly data of 32 currencies over a timeframe of 15 years from 2003 to 2017 and 13 currencies over a timeframe of 25 years from 1993 to 2017. The analysis, therefore, includes a large sample that has the drawback of a shorter
Den internationella arenan domineras av stater. Staters existens är befäst i sedvanerätten genom Montevideokonventionen. Det har dock i ivern att hålla sig fast vid denna uppstått en uppfattning om att de kriterierna som krävs för att något kan anses vara en stat, också blir gällande e contrario i hänsyn till när stater ska anses upphöra att existera. En av de fyra kriterierna är kriteriet om terrThe global arena is dominated by states. The existence of a state is regulated in the Montevideo Convention on the Rights of States. There does however seem, that in the desire to follow this convention, a definitive opinion that states losing one of the criteria set up by the convention, also means losing their stateship, as a Montevideo Convention e contrario, if you will. One of these four crit
Nedanstående undersökning har som syfte att undersöka hur det samhälleliga användandet, framförallt gällande den kommunala tillämpningen, av ordningsvakter i det offentliga rummet förhåller sig till regleringen av rättsinstitutet som kom till i slutet på 1970-talet? Undersökningen uppnår detta genom att utföra en historisk tillbakablick i syfte att förklara varför Sverige är i princip ensamt i värThe purpose of the study below is to examine how the societal use, especially regarding the municipal application, of police ordained private security guards in the public sphere relates to the regulation of this legal institution that came into being in the late 1970s? The study achieves this by conducting a historical review in order to explain why Sweden is basically alone in the world in apply
A decade has passed since the first human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line was established, providing immense hope in curing diseases by cell replacement therapy. For instance, in the pancreas, the insulin-producing β-cells are damaged in diabetes patients, and a successful replacement of those cells could provide a cure. These cells can be replaced by organ donation, but owing to a profound scarci
Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women worldwide and the fourth leading cause of cancer death. In Western countries, it is the 10th most common cause of cancer death. Cervical cancer often affects young women (< 40 years) who have not finished childbearing. Robot assistance is the latest development in laparoscopic surgery. There is one robot commercially available for gynecologi
Reinforced concrete is one of the most widely used building materials and if it is properly designed and produced, it is an extremely durable material with a service life up to 100 years. However, under certain environmental conditions the service life of reinforced concrete structures is more limited. Deterioration of concrete structure is in most cases caused by the penetration of aggressive med
Critics maintain that there are a number of troublesome issues resulting from the construction sector’s way of operating and that these remain, despite widespread criticism and measures designed to change all of this. The construction sector’s and the critics’ manner of describing these problems fails to a large extent to take into consideration the way people function in connection with practical
In the last few years the airline industry had experienced a rapid growth within the low cost segment. The expenses for the airline companies have during the same period increased, mostly due to higher fuel prices and higher capital costs for airplanes. As a result of this, the economic situation for the airline companies has come to be very strained. The Swedish Civil Aviation Authority (LFV), wh
Coordinated inventory control is a concept within inventory management where decisions are based on stock and demand situations throughout a whole system of interconnected warehouses and inventories, and where control parameters are simultaneously determined and set at all installations. This thesis is a part of a larger research collaboration project in coordinated inventory control where NGiL (N
Riskkapitalmarknaden kan härledas så långt tillbaka som till 1940-talet då de första private equity-investeringarna genomfördes i USA, och sedan dess har branschens utsträckning ständigt förändrats i takt med det rådande ekonomiska klimatet, både hög- och lågkonjunkturer, och är idag ett starkt etablerat fenomen även i Sverige. Private equity är den investeringsform som inom samlingsbegreppet risThe risk capital market can be traced as far back as the 1940s when the first private equity investment was made in the United States, and since then, the industry has constantly changed along with the current economic climate, and is today a strongly established phenomenon even in Sweden. The term private equity covers all investments that are made in unlisted companies and they typically involv
Kvinnor har låtit utföra abort under alla tider. Under merparten av historiens gång har ingreppet emellertid behandlats som ett samhälleligt tabu och var därför olagligt i flertalet länder fram till mitten på 1900-talet. Den sexuella revolutionen under 1960- och 1970-talet, i kombination med stora vetenskapliga framsteg på området för mänsklig reproduktion, har kommit att spela en avgörande roll f
The Maha Oya (river) originates in the Kandy district of Sri Lanka and travels about 130 km passing four districts to reach the sea at Kochchikade in Sri Lanka. It holds the 3rd largest average annual runoff among the 103 of distinct river basins in Sri Lanka. Its contribution as a fresh water source is of great significance. During year 2004 the river provided five percent of the total production
Popular Abstract in Swedish Melanin är ett pigment som finns i många olika slags vävnader. I hud och hår finns två slags melanin, pheomelanin som är typiskt för rödhåriga personer och eumelanin som finns i större mängd i mörkt hår och hud. Konstaterad korrelation mellan hudcancer och solexponering motiverar forskarna att förstå mer om melanin och dess växelverkan med UV-ljus. Man vet att rödhårigaMelanin is an epidermal pigment commonly known to give darker skin coloration under sun exposure. It is also present in the hair, eyes, inner ear and brain. The first function of epidermis melanin is believed to be photoprotective against harmful ultraviolet (UV) light, but the recent increase of skin cancer correlated to an increase of sun exposure questions the properties of melanin. Its presenc
Introduction For the future conservation, restoration and daily maintenance the need for developing non-destructive and in-situ investigations is vital. At Lund University in Sweden an interdisciplinary research project is being held aiming at, with the help of a mobile system of remote fluorescence lidar, survey and study the facades of historic monuments, and to develop the method and its applic
Popular Abstract in Swedish De nu gällande trafikpolitiska principerna för kostnadsansvaret lades fast i 1988 års trafikpolitiska beslut (Regeringens proposition 1987/88:50 om trafikpolitiken inför 1990-talet). Utgångspunkten för kostnadsansvaret är trafikavgifter på samhällsekonomiska villkor med syfte att ge rätt beteendesignaler på transportområdet. Från denna utgångspunkt har kostnadsansvaret Transport is a key factor for economic growth. It has enabled both the economic scale of production and an increase in competition. No one can question this role of transportation. There is, however, a back-side to the coin: the environmental challenge. Present trends show that transportation is not compatible with sustainable development. The need to internalise the external effects from trans-po
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bomärken har använts som ägarbeteckning och signatur i Norden in på 1800-talet, och i vissa reliktområden intill nutid. Bomärkena återfinns t.ex. i mantalslängder, jordaböcker och bouppteckningar, men även inskurna på äldre redskap, husgeråd och annat lösöre. Bomärkena har av somliga forskare ansetts ha utformats slumpvis, enbart med syftet att kunna skilja en bomärkes
The social surroundings in which an individual grows up and spends his or her everyday life have an effect on his or her life chances. Much of the research into this phenomenon focuses on so-called neighborhood effects and has put particular emphasis on the negative effects of growing up in a poor neighborhood. Originating from the sociological study of inner-city problems in the United States, th
