Att kunna konfigurera och/eller kontrollera ett fordon genom en mobilapplikation är något som blir allt vanligare i den värld vi lever i. Det finns därav ett behov av att undersöka hur säkerheten hanteras i just detta scenario. Denna kandidatuppsats är en undersökning i form av en litteraturstudie kring vilka risker och hot som finns då ett fordon ska kunna konfigureras och kontrolleras genom en To be able to control and/or configure a vehicle through a mobile app is something that is becoming more usual in the world we live in. Because of this there is an inherent demand to further explore how to handle the security in this scenario. This Bachelor thesis is an investigation in the shape of a literature study into which risks and threats that appear when a vehicle is to be controlled and

This study examines the relationship between the public debt quota and economic growth while using the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) as a theoretical base. This is done with a panel data regression using 81 countries over a time period from 1980-2019. MMT emphasises that countries in control of their monetary base, monetarily sovereign countries, can hold a larger public debt without negative effec

This paper examines if individuals take local income taxes and public spending into account when choosing where to live.

The different effects for apartments and houses as well as the effect of municipal

Antimicrobial resistance is an acute global health problem. Sub-Saharan Africa is particularly vulnerable, where antibiotic self-medication is one of the main causes of antimicrobial resistance. Previous research points to the role of pharmacies, where antibiotics are sometimes sold over the counter. Such behavior can be analyzed economically using game theory. This study aimed to analyze and moti

Emergency planning is required to respond to the increasing wildfire threat. A part of this is to assess a community’s capacity to move to a safe place during wildfires. This can be achieved by calculating the time it takes for a community to evacuate from an at-risk area to a relatively safe place. Simple approaches, such as the commonly used engineering calculation, may provide access to a broad

Empirical EKC literature has conceptual flaws that arise due to the inclusion of polynomials and cointegrating relationships of powers of integrated processes. Additionally, previous studies focused on a narrow nexus between environmental degradation and economic growth that yield only a partial EKC. Considering hereinabove mentioned points the aim of this study is to assess the EKC hypothesis in

På senare år har andelen kvinnor i styrelse- och ledningsgrupper ökat. Nyligen har internationella studier visat att det finns ett samband mellan andelen kvinnor i styrelser och ett bolags lönsamhet. Denna studie ämnar att undersöka om om det finns ett statistiskt säkerställt samband mellan andelen kvinnor i styrelser respektive ledningsgrupper och bolags lönsamhet i Sverige. Metoden består av tre

Predicting occupant behaviour is vital to ensure energy performance in the built environment. Several studies reported discrepancies between the predicted and actual occupant behaviour in buildings, including that towards manual solar shading systems. This results in an energy performance gap between predicted and actual energy use in buildings. In this research, the self-reported use of manual

It is beneficial for both investors and companies to avoid the detrimental consequences of overpricing during an initial public offering (IPO). Prospectuses are an important source of information for potential investors. Through Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) we extract topics from the summary section of prospectuses S-1 for companies holding an IPO in the U.S. in 2019-2020. We represent the un
