Over the past few decades, digital methods of documentation and exhibition have been becoming ever more popular in museums. As technologies advance, so too do the implications for museum digitization. This thesis provides a glimpse into the current atmosphere of museum digitization, proposes new applications for digital documentation and propagates these themes through the development of a case st
Efterfrågan efter hushållsarbete har ökat i Europa sedan 1990-talet på grund av minskande välfärdstjänster, ökade krav på prestation på arbetsmarknaden och bättre ekonomiska förutsättningar att betala för hushållsarbete. Dessutom uppfyller det fria flödet av arbetskraft inom EU och EES-området efterfrågan eftersom arbetskraft från fattigare områden blir tillgänglig för hushållen i länder med bättrThe demand for domestic work has increased in Europe since the 1990´s due to decreasing welfare services, increasing demands for performance in the labour market and financial ability to pay for domestic work. In addition, the free flow of labour within the European Union and the EEA-area meets these demands when labour force from the poorer areas become available for households in countries with
Olagligt, orapporterat och oreglerat (IUU) fiske är ett av de största hoten mot den marina biologiska mångfalden. Problematiken går hand i hand med farhågorna kring överfiske, något som har anammats av det internationella samfundet under de senaste två decennierna. Stater har uppmanats att på egen hand eller genom gemensamma initiativ, vidta åtgärder för att bekämpa IUU-fiske. Som en utav de störsIllegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing activities are currently considered to be one of the largest threats to the conservation of marine living resources and biodiversity. Thus, the international community have for the last two decades called upon States to take measures, individually or jointly, to combat IUU fishing. As an important actor on the global market, the European Union (EU)
Anaerobic digestion is a cost-effective way of treating high organic content wastewater, as it efficiently removes large amounts of organics at the same time as biogas is produced. The production of starch from cassava roots, named tapioca, creates large amounts of high organic content wastewater and uses large amounts of thermal energy for drying the starch. At Wusons tapioca factory in southern
Avoiding consumer skepticism of corporate social responsibility programs has become an important factor in CSR communication. Literature points towards a need for a more consumer-focused, symmetrical approach to CSR communication, especially in the case of cause-related marketing. The Estee Lauder 2014 Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign uses a co-creational approach to CSR, centered on user-generate
The shape of a diffuse reflectance spectra can provide knowledge about tissue composition. By analysing this spectra one can, with the right evaluation methods, find out information about the tissue. With known absorption properties of the present tissue chromophores it is possible, with a curve fit algorithm, to find their volume fractions in any measured tissue. In this work, the usability of
Jobbgarantin för ungdomar (UGA) står i linje med en utvecklingstendens på den svenska arbetsmarknadspolitiken som i allt större utsträckning satsar på en intensifierad förmedling, istället för insatser som syftar till att höja ungdomars kompetens. Detta står i kontrast mot samhällvetenskapliga koncept om arbetsmarknadens utveckling, som även kan konstateras i Sverige: en ökad tjänsteorientering oc
This paper investigates volatility and mean spillover effects from the US and the Chinese stock markets into individual ASEAN stock markets using a GARCH spillover model. I find strong statistical evidence for both the mean-spillover and the volatility-spillover effects from the US into the individual ASEAN markets. The Chinese volatility-spillover effects are less essential to the individual ASEA

Under the current international framework of copyright, rights are automatically granted to all creators of eligible works regardless of their will. Elimination of formalities, formerly a necessary condition for grant of copyright, deprived creators of choice as to whether obtain rights with accompanying obligation for others or not. Copyright legislation has primarily been established for satisfa
The aim of this study is to examine how Swedish regions and cities are making use of Europe by various forms of lobbying efforts, and describe what role they are playing in EU’s multi-level system. The study initially concentrates on the development of the regional offices in general, and the Swedish offices in particular. Additionally, the study intends to discuss the possibilities and impli
Med röntgenstrålning går det i dagsläget att avbilda kroppens inre anatomi i antingen två eller tre dimensioner. Vid en vanlig slätröntgenundersökning (2D) tas en så kallad projektionsbild från en eller två vinklar, framifrån/bakifrån och från sidan. Detta genererar en tvådimensionell bild där alla (anatomiska) strukturer mellan röntgenröret och filmen överlagras, d.v.s. de går inte att separera fDuring the last century several attempts have been made to overcome the fundamental problem of X-ray imaging, i.e. that anatomical information existing in 3-dimensions has to be represented on a 2-dimensional radiograph. In this thesis, digital tomosynthesis, a rened version of conventional tomography, has been investigated. Digital tomosynthesisenables retrospective reconstruction of an arbitrary
The article is a response to a lecture held by Sarah Coakley at Lund University 2009. In relation to Coakley's reflections on pain, the article addresses the question whether the Passion story still today, and not only in an ecclesial context, can serve as an incitement to a kind of self-examinating reflection. In other words, is it possible to retrieve through the Passion a narrative framework wh
Background: Radiographers' ability and competence is a matter of vital importance for patients. Nursing care is an integral part of the radiographer's work. The demand for high competence in clinical activities has increased in diagnostic radiology and has had an impact on the development of the profession. Aim: The aim was to describe the radiographer's areas of professional competence in relatio
Placodium umbrinum Breuss is reported as new to northern Europe from the island of Gotland, Sweden. The species is described and depicted, and its ecology at the locality on Gotland is given. A key is given for former members of the genus Catapyrenium growing on soil, mosses or bark in the Nordic countries.
Lipase has been encapsulated in ordered mesoporous materials in a one-step process. The procedure is simple and leads to well structured materials with enzyme loadings higher than those obtained through the post-synthesis approach. In the final bottle-around-the-ship material the enzyme would be entrapped in silica cages whose entrances are smaller than the enzyme itself. Therefore, reagents and p
Many animals use the spectral distribution of light to guide behaviour, but whether they have colour vision has been debated for over a century. Our strong subjective experience of colour and the fact that human vision is the paradigm for colour science inevitably raises the question of how we compare with other species. This article outlines four grades of 'colour vision' that can be related to t
Background: Stroke is a major cause of mortality and morbidity across the world. Air pollution has become an acknowledged risk factor for stroke, especially for acute effects. There is less support for effects by chronic exposure due to the methodological challenges inherent in such studies. Such challenges can regard missing individual level data or residual confounding and can partly be overcome
This paper explores the interaction between brand orientation and market orientation. Brand orientation is an inside-out, identity-driven approach that sees brands as a hub for an organization and its strategy. Similarly, market orientation is an outside-in, image-driven approach. Initially, brand orientation and market orientation appear to be two different strategic options. Though synergistic c
Exposure of metazoan organisms to hypoxia engages a metabolic switch orchestrated by the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1). HIF-1 mediates induction of glycolysis and active repression of mitochondrial respiration that reduces oxygen consumption and inhibits the production of potentially harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we show that FoxO3A is activated in hypoxia downstream of HIF-1 a
