Under de senaste åren har generativ AI integrerats i kommunikatörers arbete i allt större utsträckning. De generativa AI-verktygen skiljer sig avsevärt från tidigare arbetsverktyg i kommunikationsyrken, och förväntas utmynna i en förändring av det sätt kommunikatörer utför och förhåller sig till sin arbetsmetod. Mot denna bakgrund ökar behovet av kunskap om hur AI-användning, samt den organisatori

This study examines how section managers within social services describe their scope of action and preventive work in relation to stress and exhaustion among social workers. Work-related exhaustion is a major cause of sick leave in Sweden, and social services constitute a particularly high-risk context due to heavy workloads, emotional demands, and organizational constraints. Using a qualitative r

Side-channel monitoring has the potential to offer a non-intrusive way to assess the behavior of an embedded device by monitoring physical signals such as power consumption or electromagnetic emissions by placing a small measuring probe close to the device. Although studies seem to indicate that it is effective in a laboratory environment with monitoring methods adjusted based on the specific targ

Syfte: Undersöka om kvinnlig representation i bolagsstyrelser har ett samband med finansiell risk i börsnoterade företag inom Europeiska Unionen. Metod: Studien bygger på en kvantitativ forskningsansats med paneldata för perioden 2016-2014. Sekundärdata har samlats in från Bloomberg och bearbetats i Excel innan de statistiska analyserna genomförts i Stata. Teoretiska perspektiv: Uppsatsen utgår i

This thesis explores how public libraries in Lund, Sweden, and various regions of Nepal function as inclusive community spaces. Drawing on ethnographic methods including observation, interviews, digital ethnography, and surveys, it compares the everyday experiences of library users in two different national contexts. Grounded in theories of the public sphere by Habermas and Risse, and their critiq

This thesis examines how regulatory frameworks and material standards influence the design of fire safety in military submarines, using the A26 submarine programme as a case study. Although military naval regulations exist, they frequently rely on civilian standards, particularly the IMO FTP Code, which limits the ability to justify materials that may be more suitable for submarine environments. T

This study examines how formal and informal barriers are manifested within an ESF-funded labour market project in Sweden and how these barriers affect participants’ opportunities for labour market establishment. Despite strong policy ambitions to promote inclusion and gender equality, previous research indicates that labour market interventions may reproduce unequal outcomes in practice. Therefore

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818) is one of the most famous works of fiction ever written and thus much has already been said about it. Recent criticism of the novel has identified the presence of transhumanist themes in Victor Frankenstein’s quest to create a new superior species and defeat death. Several thought-provoking retellings of Shelley’s story have been published since the formation of

The current construction industry produces enormous quantities of wood waste, much of which is not utilised, despite wood being a renewable and versatile material. This thesis introduces a computational framework to repurpose wood offcuts into modular, load-bearing components for small-scale architectural applications. The goal is to transform discarded wood into valuable building elements by leve

This study examines the linguistic characteristics of the speech of female villains in Japanese fictional dialogue, with the aim of determining whether female villains employ a distinct role language or yakuwarigo, that is, a distinct speech style that indexes characterization based on social stereotypes. An original, small-scale corpus was constructed consisting of dialogue from female villains,

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze how tone and language use in CEO letters in the annual reports of Swedish listed real estate companies vary between economic upturns and downturns, and to examine how the narrative presentation during economic downturns relates to the companies’ financial key performance indicators. The study takes its point of departure in the real estate sector’s

Oskarhamn 3 är en av Sveriges sex kärnreaktorer som fortfarande är i drift. O3 konstruerades på 1980-talet och många centrala system och komponenter är fortfarande orginal. Eftersom reaktorn planeras vara i drift i minst 20 år till finns tydliga incitament till modernisering, bland annat genom digitalisering. Detta examensarbete syftar till att bidra till denna modernisering genom att undersöka hu

The third round of NDCs were due to be released in the lead up to COP30 in November 2025, with parties to the Paris Agreement set to detail commitments to more ambitious emissions reductions. The content of past NDCs have differed greatly depending on which country is submitting the document, especially in how well gender is integrated across actions for NDC implementation. Previous studies show t

Extracting financial Key Performance Indicators from annual reports is one of many manual tasks in the banking sector. This can be automated with Machine Learning techniques such as Question Answering, Named Entity Recognition, Entity Relation, Text-to-Sql, or Retrieval Augmented Generation. In this thesis, different models performances are evaluated when extracting KPIs from annual reports, both
