DNA profiling is evolving in the forensics community towards introducing massively parallel sequencing (MPS) as a complement to capillary electrophoresis (CE). Obstacles remain however before this technology can become routine in forensic casework, such as the development of more efficient bioinformatics solutions and recommendations concerning data analyses. Additionally, there is a need to devel
It is of interest to design a methodology in predicting the fillability of non-Newtonian viscoelastic product such as meat batter by analyzing its rheological properties, reducing the need to perform pilot plant scale tests. Meat batter with different added water produced in laboratory and pilot plant were analyzed to represent meat batters with different rheological characteristics and filling
Most companies organize their employees into different functions based on their main activity. The performance and output of the company is often strongly correlating to the level of collaboration between these functions. When communication between the functions becomes hindered, they have become so called functional silos, as information is kept within them. The purpose is to identify how the fu

Bygg- och fastighetssektorn är en av de sektorer som släpper ut mest växthusgaser. Under ett enskilt år så svarar byggbranschen för utsläpp av växthusgaser på 21 miljoner ton koldioxidekvivalenter, vilket motsvarar 21 procent av Sveriges totala utsläpp. Av det totala utsläppet på 21 miljoner koldioxidekvivalenter så kommer 12,8 miljoner ton från inhemska utsläpp av växthusgaser och 8,2 miljoner toThe building and real estate sector is one of the sectors that emits the most greenhouse gases. For a single year, the construction industry is responsible for greenhouse gas emissions of 21 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, which corresponds to 21 per cent of Sweden's total emissions. Of the total emissions of 21 million carbon dioxide equivalents, 12.8 million tons come from domesti
By using data to generate insights, Data Science has increased in popularity and has become a substantial part of many companies. However, Data Science efforts often result in failure, leading to companies not having the expected outcome of their Data Science investments. There seems to be knowledge lacking to why, therefore, this thesis aims to describe what may influence the expected outcome of
Female drivers operating in the public transport sector are underrepresented in the literature on women’s mobility which largely addresses the fear of crime among female riders. Alternative modes of transport, as well as job opportunities, have nevertheless started to emerge as international and local ride-hailing firms mushroom across the globe in urban cities. The World Bank Group International
Big Data Analytics är processen som används vid analyser av stora mängder data i syfte att upptäcka samband och mönster av värde som kan ligga till grund för framtida beslutsfattanden. En av de främsta utmaningarna som omnämns i litteraturen är att säkerställa kvaliteten på den data som används vid analyser. Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva organisationers hantering av utmaningar med datak
Organizational decision making is a challenging task that tends to be impactful. Decisionmakers have for more than 50 years been using different types of computational support to enable for more accurate and faster decision. In today’s business context, there is an increasing volume of data available for the decision-maker. However, humans are limited in their capacity to consume and manage data a
Inom fruktjuiceindustrin är kontroll av mikrobiell tillväxt viktigt för att hålla en god kvalité och säkerhet i produkterna. Flera olika typer av mikroorgnismer är intressanta att ha i åtanke. Detta projekt fokuserade på Alicyclobacillus sp., en grampositiv, sporbildande och strikt aerob bakterie som tillväxer vid låga pH mellan 3-6 och sporerna kan överleva den vanliga pastöriseringen för industrFor the fruit juice industry, control of microbial growth is important to keep a high quality and safety of products. Several kinds of microorganisms are important to consider. This project focused on Alicyclobacillus spp., a gram-positive, spore-forming, strictly aerob spoilage bacteria able to grow at low pH of 3-6 and the spores survive pasteurization of 86–96 degrees C and 2 min. The project a
The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the existing strategy literature by identifying practical efforts that organisations can make to achieve strategic alignment between their internal corporate ventures and the overall business strategies. The thesis follows an inductive qualitative research approach with a multiple case study of three participating organisations. The empirical data is
Under 2000-talet har allt fler tjänster flyttats online och mängden data som dagligen samlas om användare har blivit allt mer omfattande. Efter flertalet skandaler rörande personuppgifter har diskussionen kring integritet på nätet blivit ett vanligt inslag. För att jämna ut maktförhållandet mellan företag och användare infördes under mitten av 2018 dataskyddsförordningen GDPR inom EU vilken innehö
Consumption of goods and services requires raw materials and energy, causing climate impact in terms of emission of greenhouse gases. Public consumption stands for approximately 13 percent of Sweden’s consumption-based emissions. In order for these emissions to decrease, an understanding of municipal consumption-based emissions is necessary. However, there is a lack of methods and data to calculat
In the 2017 paper by Arévalo and Söderlind, a framework was established for creating linear multistep methods of various classes based on a polynomial formulation which includes variable step size adaptivity. These classes are: k step explicit and implicit methods of order k and k+1 respectively for nonstiff problems (such as Adams methods), and k step implicit methods of order k for stiff problem
Object and surface reconstruction in 3D is commonly used in production tolerance validation. Depending on the required level of accuracy, a multitude of different methods are available, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. This thesis aims to investigate alternative surface reconstruction methods which utilise that all possible light paths are known along a given one-dimensional cur
The Anthropocene is facing complex issues that require paradigmatic shifts in thought and action. In this context, systemic change and cross-sectoral partnerships have gained an exceptional wave of support through agreements such as Agenda 2030, shaping the landscape of international development cooperation sector. However, conceptual limitations and methodological gaps pose challenges to understa
Both development practice and research have paid attention to the issue of sexual and gender-based violence in armed conflict in recent years. However, feminist scholars criticise policies on the issue for reproducing the gendered power relations which are at the root of violence. Research focuses on the policies of a few prominent donors, while policies of lesser-known actors have hardly been exa
There is a need for more efficient measures to ensure responsible migration in host countries. Sports are recognised as a key measure to promote integration. This thesis’s purpose is to increase the understanding of the impacts football clubs have on integration for youth girls with foreign backgrounds in Stockholm, Sweden. This is done by exploring social relations’ role in integration and examin
The under-representation of women in public decision-making in Peru has reaffirmed the need for further studying the reasons for low representation. This study focuses on the case at the lowest level of the Peruvian Judiciary: the Justices of the Peace (JoP) who judge cases in their community based on the knowledge of the specific sets of values in the community. The study shines light on the (und
