The web server is an essential component of many systems today. It has the possibility to give access to files with sensitive information and it is the backbone that enable a vast amount of applications. This makes it critical to ensure that files are only accessed and altered by intended users and that web servers are always up and running when expected. One important aspect of doing this is to e

The scale of atrocities perpetrated against refugees and migrants around the globe demands our urgent attention. Yet, triggering of individual criminal responsibility in situations of mistreatment of refugees and migrants is certainly not the norm. The purpose of this thesis is to challenge the existing notions that only crimes related to armed conflict and other related situations of violence fal

Research suggests that polyphenols, such as anthocyanins, that are found in considerable amounts in many types of berries, contributes with a positive effect on human cognition. However, clinical trials are warranted to support these findings. Preparation for such a trial includes developing a berry-rich study product and a corresponding reference beverage. Phenolic compounds are highly unstable a

Sommaren 2018 var ett rekordvarmt år, och en markant ökning på solkurvor konstaterades av Trafikverket. Det finns flera orsaker till varför en solkurva uppstår, förutom den ökade temperaturen. När en solkurva bildas dras slutsatsen i många fall att anledningen endast är hög temperatur och vidare undersökningar utesluts direkt. Detta examensarbete består till stor del av en litteraturstudie som bThe summer of 2018 was a hot year, a significant increase of sun curves was observed by Trafikverket. There are several reasons why a sun curve occurs, in addition to the high temperature. When a sun curve is formed, the conclusion is drawn in many cases that the reason was heat and no further investigations are made. The project consists a literature study that explains the physical theory, fac

Människan använde sig tidigt av växter för att behandla sjukdomar utan att veta vilket specifikt ämne i växten som verkade, hon tycktes sig enbart se en behandling av sjukdomen eller på symptomen av denna. Vid läkemedelsutveckling så har naturen varit en oändlig källa till inspiration och potenta kemiska föreningar. Antingen är de rena naturprodukter eller kemiska derivat som genomgått en liten änOrtho-amides have shown to be an important intermediate in the total synthesis of the cytotoxic indole alkaloid, dehaloperphoroamidine. The potential of this functional group lead to further investigation of its reactivity. Background, known reactions with ortho-amides and A 7-steps synthesis route of a general ortho-amide from tryptamine are presented here. Lack of time resulted in that the synth

The purpose of this paper is to find possible measures to tackle algorithmic collusion, caused especially by pricing algorithms, from the perspective of competition law. This paper does not intend to analyse all possible measures that may exist, but rather, focus on a few measures that are seen reasonable. Before proceeding further to analyse these possible measures, the concepts of algorithms and

In this study four different types of PIR materials have been tested to examine the possibility to use the cone calorimeter (ISO 5660) as a screening tool to evaluate the fire properties of the insulation. As such, manufacturers can be able to make a quick control of the insulation without having to spend resources on full scale testing. One of the materials was from an FM-approved (standard 4880)

I ett försök att begränsa bostadsproblem i Nairobi, som är så enorma att det blir en av Kenyas regerings "fyra stora agenda" som innebär topp regeringens prioriteringar när det gäller utveckling. Denna studie fokuserar på den största staden i Kenya (hänsyn till befolkningen), Nairobi. Nairobi växer i befolkning med en takt på över 4% vilket gör det till en av de snabbast växande städer pIn a bid to curb housing problems in Nairobi, which are so enormous to a point of becoming one of the Government of Kenya's 'Big four agenda' which entails the top government's priorities in terms of development. So, this case is perfectly fitted for the study. This study focuses on the largest city in Kenya (in terms of population), Nairobi. Nairobi is growing in population at a r

Dammet målar landskapet svart. Mark och vatten förorenas, samtidigt som dagbrotten bara blir större och större. Kolbrytning är vida sett som en av de värsta sorternas utvinning av naturresurser då det kan ha negativ inverkan på både människors hälsa och miljön. Vetskap finns om byar vars invånare klagar på att deras dricksvatten har förändrats all eftersom fler kolgruvor etablerats. Nu smakar vattThe access to safe and clean drinking water is a major concern throughout the world. The recent discovery of coal and gas in Mozambique has increased the economic growth lately and large international companies have been attracted to Tete province in central Mozambique. Coal mining is widely recognized as one of the most hazardous forms of natural resource extraction for human health and the envir

The goal of this thesis is to create a model that can simulate traffic on a highway by primarily using a supervised artificial neural network. The reader is first introduced to the theory of artificial neural networks, step by step from the fundamental principles to the network that is used in the final model. The network is trained to predict velocities of individual vehicles when being fed information

Purpose of the study – The purpose of the study is to develop a conceptual framework and model for further research, of front-line logistic workers ́ perception of sharing their personal information at their work. Furthermore, the study aims to create a framework for how to study information disclosure programs potential impact on employee turnover when being implemented on intermediate parties, n

Syftet med projektet var att utvärdera katalysatorer med olika formuleringar för pre-reformingprocessen. Tre av de fem som testades tillverkades av studenten genom incipient wetness impregnation-metoden. BET-analys visade att katalysatorerna med Θ-alumina hade störst porvolym, den med γ-alumina hade däremot störst ytarea. Testerna gjordes i en tubreaktor som hade gasutloppet kopplat till en GC förThe purpose of this project was to perform a screening on catalysts with different formulations for the pre-reforming process. Three of the five catalysts tested were made by the student using the incipient wetness impregnation method. BET analysis showed that the catalysts with Θ-alumina had the greatest pore volume, while the one with γ-alumina had the greatest surface area. The tests were done

All words in Swedish have a particular melody. There are two tonal patterns that are observed in different prosodic and morphological contexts – accent 1 and accent 2. The tone of accent 1 is the default melody in Swedish and is said to be of intonational nature. The melody of accent 2, on the other hand, only occurs in presence of certain suffixes in the word, hence, accent 2 is claimed to be a p

Companies always strives to acheive as eective inventory control as possible. At the same time, a suciently high delivery accuracy to satisfy the customer is pursued. One prerequisite for successfully accomplishing this is to anticipate customer demand in advance. An approximation of the demand in advance is called forecasting. Forecasting implies that dierent techniques are used to predict future

Indoor Air Pollution (IAP) resulting from indoor burning of solid biomass fuels in poorly ventilated kitchens is a severe health risk in parts of the world where energy poverty is prevalent. Passive ventilation, i.e. taking advantage of naturally induced airflow has been suggested as crucial in reducing IAP levels below safe limits. Residents in high altitude settlements are however exposed to extImagine a house situated on 2 600 meters above sea level in the Himalayan mountain range. It is in the middle of January and – 2 degrees Celsius inside. The only source of additional heat you have access to is lighting an open fire or firing in the cooking stove, both of which you fuel with some kind of solid biomass such as wood or agricultural waste. The fire is intensifying, you begin to feel t

Bakgrund: Majoriteten av patienter på en akutmottagning upplever smärta. Långa väntetider påverkar tiden till smärtlindring. Tidigare forskning har påvisat brister i sjuksköterskors kunskap och inställning till smärta och smärtlindring, men har inte studerats i svensk akutkontext. Syfte: Genom enkäten Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain (KASRP) undersöktes kunskap och inställning kring

Samtidigt som e-handel blir allt mer vanligt förekommande finns det också ett ökat intresset för hållbarhet i samhället. Detaljhandeln går därmed i två utvecklingsinriktningar som ej tycks gå hand i hand. Dagens detaljhandelsföretag tvingas att hantera både e-handelns konsumtionsmönster och konsumenters ökade krav och förväntningar, samtidigt som samhället begär företag att agera mer hållbart. Syf

I Hässleholm pågår ett omvandlings- och förtätningsarbete för att bland annat lösa behovet av bostäder. I nordvästra delen av staden ligger Kvarteret Norden som är ett av de områden som kommunen planerar att bebygga med främst bostäder. Syftet är att skapa en god boendemiljö med en stadsmässig karaktär. Det är inte tätheten i sig som eftertraktas, det är snarare de kvaliteter som den täta stadsmilIn Hässleholm, a transformation and densification work is underway to solve the need for housing. In the northwestern part of the city, The Neighborhood North is one of the areas that the municipality plans to build with mainly housing. The purpose is to create a good living environment with an urban character. It is not the density in itself that is sought after, it is rather the qualities that t

För att ta reda på vad som legitimerar digitaliseringen inom SFI har två myndighetstexter, en från Skolverket och en från Utbildningsdepartementet, analyserats utifrån ett diskursanalytiskt perspektiv. I analysen framkommer det att digitaliseringen inom SFI legitimeras genom såväl auktoriseringslegitimering som moralisk legitimering i form av värderande ord och positiva konnotationer. Digitaliseri
