Wireless communication nowadays is playing a vital role in real-life data transmission. This communication can be machine-to-machine or human to machine communication. In each of these categories, reliability and low latency data transmission are critical factors of success transmission in case the number of devices in a certain area increases. In this thesis, I mainly investigate on smart manufac
The rights of the children : a formality or a reality? Incorporating the Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law This essay investigates the arguments for incorporating the United Nation’s Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law through a discourse analysis.

This thesis analyses the spatio-temporal patterns of inequality and income growth in Sweden during the time-period 1990–2016. It aims at answering the question of whether there has been increasing inequalities, if so where and why. The study is motivated by the ongoing debate on regional development in research, public policy and media which frequently raise questions on the ongoing patterns of in
A theoretical study is presented, in which the nonlinear response of a bi-ased Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) is calculated. The calculations are based on the nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. Assuming a periodic electromagnetic field in the calculations, this formalism provides not only the stationary behavior Green’s functions, but also the part of the response that varies in time according
Konkurrensen på den globala marknaden blir allt hårdare för internationella företag där utlandsplacerade medarbetare, så kallade expatriater anses vara ett viktigt verktyg för att erhålla konkurrensfördelar. Flera forskare har studerat olika delar av utlandsuppdrag där såväl förberedande träning innan uppdraget som anpassning på plats i värdlandet har framhävts. Dock saknas forskning där ett kompaThe competition on the global market is becoming increasingly tough for international companies where workers located abroad, so called expatriates are thought of as an important tool in obtaining competition advantages. Several scientists have studied different parts of a mission abroad for expatriates where pre-departure training as well as adjustment to the host country has been accentuated. Ho
In order to reduce lead time and cost in the product development of vehicles more development will be made virtually. However, the predictability capability of simulation models is questioned and the simulation models need to be correlated versus hardware measurements and modeling techniques improved. As part of the process of vehicle system model capability improvements the main objective of thi
“This is not politics” A study of politicians views on their role in matters concerning The care of young persons act (LVU) The purpose of this study was to investigate what politicians who handles matters concerning exercise of authority towards individuals feel and experience in terms of the decision making process.

Lean- production have for some decades been a standing feature in the private sector. In recent years has the use of the method gained recognition also in the public sector where civic organizations want to achieve the huge effective gains promised by the Lean-literature. Research has show that Lean-implementation on public organizations can have positive outcomes for the workplace as a whole. He
The aim of this study was to examine the infiltration rate of water and some parameters affecting it. Especially the land usage, the abundance of roots and macropores were investigated. A field study was carried out on western Java in Indonesia, on the slope of Mount Salak. The study compared four different land uses; i.e. forest, shrub areas, tree plantation and cropland since there was a high o
Since January 1st, 2008, there is a law in Sweden prescribing that all municipalities must be able to offer youths under 21 years of age mediation in case of crime. When mediating, two different kinds of mediators are used, one being a professional mediator and the other one a layman mediator. The purpose of my essay has been to examine how two rather small municipalities use laymen mediators and
Uppsatsen behandlar brottsoffers rätt till ersättning för kränkning enligt SKL 2 kap 3§ och 5 kap 6§. Denna typ av ideell ersättning har rötter långt tillbaka i historien men har kraftigt ökat sin rättsliga betydelse de senaste 25 åren. En svängning i den politiska debatten har under denna tid lett till stadigt ökande ersättningsnivåer och ny lagstiftning. Uppsatsen presenterar brottsoffers rätt tThe report deals with victim rights to recover damages and state compensation for criminal violations under SKL Chapter 2 § 3 and Chapter 5 § 6 in Swedish law. The legal significance of monetary compensation for non-material or non-economic loss caused by criminal violations has increased rapidly in Sweden in the last 25 years. During this period a change in the political climate have resulted in
A submerged submarine is highly sensitive to fires since the fire residues cannot be directly ventilated to the atmosphere. Deadly outcome could be the result if the submarine does not reach the surface within time or manages to purify the air while submerged. Reasons for not reaching the surface could be enemies at the surface or system failure. No Swedish submarines are today able to purify fire
Streaming video over the internet can face issues when met with poor and varying network conditions, which can be especially noticeable when streaming live video such as security footage or video calling. To handle this, there exists congestion control algorithms that monitor network conditions based on feedback from the receiver and adapt the video output. This thesis aims to implement and compar
Föreställ dig att det går att förutse vistelsetid och överlevnad inom 30 dagar för en patient som läggs in på en intensivvårdsavdelning. Dessa mått kunnat bidra till en djupare förståelse för intensivvård. Dessutom hade dörrar öppnats för jämförelse av vårdavdelningar sinsemellan. I det här projektet har intagningsdata till intensivvårdsavdelningar, in- nehållande allt ifrån information om kroppst
I anslutning till 2015 års flyktingvåg uppenbarades oklarheter i rättsläget med avseende på det svenska rättssystemets tillhandahållande av ställföreträdare för ensamkommande barn. Personer som är under 18 år betraktas enligt svensk rätt som omyndiga vilket innebär att barn saknar förmåga att med rättsligt bindande verkan fatta beslut i personliga angelägenheter och råda över sin egendom. EnsamkomIn 2015 Sweden received an unexpected number of refugees which revealed several flaws within the domestic regulations regarding representation of unaccompanied children. According to swedish legislation persons under the age of 18 lack the legal capacity to make decisions in personal and financial matters. Unaccompanied children who arrive in Sweden require a guardian who can look after the child’
Inspirationen till förevarande arbete kommer från de EU-rättsliga organens ambivalens kring det förestående direktivförslaget, ”Förslag till Europaparlamentets och rådets direktiv om upphovsrätt på den digitala inre marknaden” som röstades igenom i EU-parlamentet i september 2018. Direktivförslaget innehåller en artikel som reglerar ansvaret för stora plattformsleverantörer som lagrar och tillgängThe inspiration to this study was brought on by the indecisiveness in EU agencies in regards of the legal proposal, “Proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on copyright in the Digital Single Market” that was voted through in the EU-parliament in September 2018. The proposal includes an article, article 13, that aims to regulate the responsibility of the providers of

As reference a more common statistical prediction method, namely the generalized linear model, is applied to compare the results of the machine learning methods. Six different machine learning methods are investigated. These methods are explained in detail and used to predict hit rates within insurance customers. To further
The aim of this thesis is to examine how the production and consumption of milk in the modern and post-modern Swedish society can be said to reflect general cultural and societal development. Focus is put on how it is affected by notions of the cartesian dichotomy between nature and culture. This is achieved using literature drawing on several disciplines relevant to the interdisciplinary field of
