En rad internetbaserade tjänster finansieras idag genom att samla in data om sina användare för att sedan sälja riktat reklamutrymme till andra aktörer. Konsumenter får ofta tillgång till tjänsterna inte genom att betala pengar, utan i stället genom att tillhandahålla sina personuppgifter och acceptera att dessa behandlas i marknadsföringssyfte. Genom EU-direktiv 2019/770 och dess implementation A number of internet-based services are in today’s digital economy financed by collecting data about their users in order to sell targeted advertising space to other actors. Consumers often gain access to these services not by paying money, but by providing their personal data and allowing for it to be process-sed for marketing purposes. Through EU Directive 2019/770 and its implementation in the

Study purpose: This study explores how Floating Container Terminals (FCTs) located in the North and Baltic Seas can support the maritime shipping industry's growth while promoting sustainability. As freight transportation volumes rise and sustainability regulations tighten, ports face increasing demands to accommodate Ultra-Large Container Vessels (ULCVs) in an environmentally responsible mann

Everything we see in nature shows how the environment influences them from both inside and outside, for example, appearance and inner structure. As Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection, specific behavioural and physical adaptations that are the outcome of natural selection. [1] The outer appearance is a visible reflection of how environment changed while the inner structure is the organism

This Master Thesis has been performed as a development project for Asko Cylinda AB in Vara, Sweden. The company develops, manufactures and markets conventional tumble dryers among many other products. An important part of a tumble dryer is the filter holder with belonging fuzz filters mounted on the door of tumble dryer’s. The fuzz filter’s objective is to filtrate the hot drying air that pass thr

Abstract Author: Viktor Andersson & Daniel Pettersson Title: Social worker – Helper on full-time, part-time or overtime? A qualitative study about the perception of work and leisure in social work. Supervisor: Johan Cronehed There is a lively discussion in the community about what work is and what leisure is. The aim of our study was to look at how professional social workers set up to be

In 2005 and 2010 the Amazon basin experienced two strong droughts', driven by shifts in the tropical hydrological regime(2) possibly associated with global climate change(3), as predicted by some global models'. Tree mortality increased after the 2005 drought(4), and regional atmospheric inversion modelling showed basin-wide decreases in CO2 uptake in 2010 compared with 2011 (ref. 5). But the resp

The technique and results of a tunnelled lateral fasciocutaneous flap with a skin island is described in immediate partial breast reconstruction in a subpopulation in oncoplastic breast surgery. Fifteen patients were operated on from January 2008 to January 2011. The subpopulation consisted of patients with small or medium-sized breasts. All patients had invasive ductal carcinomas, located in the

Advances in minimally invasive surgery have made laparoscopy and full-thickness bowel biopsy possible in the investigation of patients with suspected gastrointestinal neuromuscular disorders. The safety and diagnostic yield of this investigation have not been formally reported. A prospective study was undertaken of 124 patients with clinico-physiological diagnoses of chronic intestinal pseudo-obst

In the current project, a finite element model is developed to analyse the long-term behaviour of timber beams. The time-dependent response of wood subjected to bending and moisture changes is investigated in terms of strains and stresses. A rheological model is implemented to capture the effects of creep, mechano-sorption and hygroexpansion. The model is validated against test results from Bengts

Utsatta områden har varit föremål för debatt sedan polismyndigheten införde klassificeringen 2015. Syftet med klassningen var initialt att få en nationell lägesbild över kriminella nätverks påverkan i lokalsamhällen. Idag finns totalt 61 områden som klassificeras som utsatta där cirka 5 % av Sveriges befolkning är bosatt. Polismyndighetens lista över utsatta områden är offentlig och har bemötts meVulnerable areas have been the subject of debate since the Swedish police authority introduced the classification in 2015. Today there are a total of 61 areas classified as vulnerable and approximately 5 % of the Swedish population lives in a vulnerable area. The police authority updates and publishes a list of vulnerable areas every second year. The fact that the list is made public has been a su

Estimates of relevant source area of pollen (RSAP) and relative pollen productivity (PPE) are critical parameters for quantitative reconstructions of past vegetation and land cover. This study provides estimates for PPE relative to Poaceae for ten taxa, characterizing the cultural landscape of south Estonia and the RSAP for 40 lakes with an average radius of approximately 100 m (22-274 m, average

The aim was to gain knowledge of young people's physical status and physical activity, and to further the understanding of the role of school physical education in a salutogenic public health perspective. Two studies were performed in southern Sweden. Study 1 was performed in 1996 among 301 adolescents aged 16-19 in upper secondary school. It comprised three parts: a questionnaire, seven physical

Vi rör oss ständigt i offentliga rum som på olika sätt är utformade för att påverka oss. Denna studie undersöker om människors känslor, syn på välbefinnande och syn på meningen med livet påverkas av att befinna sig i olika rum, i detta fall en kyrka (N=51) och ett köpcenter (N=51). Två verktyg, semantiska mått och Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) används för att undersöka om det finnsWe are constantly moving between environments that are designed to affect us in one way or another. The purpose of this study is to investigate if the room has an influence on people's feelings, and their views on well-being and meaning of life. In a randomised experiment, the study explores whether there is a measurable difference in the participants’ feelings and thoughts in a church (n=51)

In 1996, Robert A. Haugen and Nardin L. Baker published a study where they had made a multi-factor model based on micro-variables on the American stock market between 1979 and 1993. In testing the model on the examined period they made an average annual return of 30,9 percent. They also tested the model on several other markets around the world with similar results. This study is a somewhat simple

This thesis examines the relationship between financial development and economic growth. By reviewing previous theories and empirical studies about financial development and economic growth and financial development process in China, I assumed that there is a positive relationship between financial development and economic growth in China case. Then I use time series annual data from 1978 to 2009

Gestures are used by people in all cultures to express themselves. This is done through both conventional gestures, sometimes called emblems, and non-conventional gestures whose meaning is more dependent on the situation in which they are made. The purpose of this study is to examine how Swedish children between the ages 18 and 30 months use nodding and head shakes, both of which are conventionali

Our understanding and quantification of global soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and the underlying processes remain largely uncertain. Here, we assessed the effects of multiple anthropogenic and natural factors, including nitrogen fertilizer (N) application, atmospheric N deposition, manure N application, land cover change, climate change, and rising atmospheric CO2 concentration, on global soil

Swedish labour market policy faces major challenges. Sweden has a labour deficit and a very low unemployment rate at the same time as unemployment is high among young people and immigrants. Unemployed in Sweden with high thresholds to enter the labour market are referred to the local labour market policy where the municipalities co-operates, competes and negotiates with the Public Employment Servi
