One of the current trends amongst the major software companies is Virtual Personal Assistants (VPA), such as Apple Siri, Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. This market is growing rapidly, and the assistants are getting smarter and becoming more capable. However, in this kind of rapid expansion it is easy to lose focus on the user, which may lead to the end user discarding the VPA as another softwa

This report describes the development of an encrypted tunnel for the Crazyflie drone made by Bitcraze. This project began with the need for protection while using a Crazyflie drone in a public space. The Crazyflie drone is using open source software and has no protection against hijacking. Any phone able to download the app to control the drone is able to hijack and control the drone. To remedy th

Denna studie ämnar undersöka utmaningarna med att bedriva CSR i ett modernt samhälle. Den undersöker hur företags image påverkas när CSR-aktiviteter och CSR-ansvar är uppdelat mellan olika parter. En kvalitativ studie har gjorts om företaget Big Heart där semi-strukturerade intervjuer har använts som metod för att uppnå en djupare förståelse av fenomenet. I intervjuerna har perspektiv från alla paThis study examines the challenges of managing CSR in modern society. It explores how the image of companies is affected in an ethical sense, when CSR activities and CSR-responsibility are divided among a variety of different parties. Through a qualitative study of the company Big Heart, semi-structured interviews was made, including interviews from all parties in order to gain a deeper understand

Förståelse av dynamiken i interaktionen mellan proteiner och olika molekyler kan underlätta designen av nya läkemedel mot till exempel cancer. Detta kan man studera i stora magneter med så kallad magnetresonansspektroskopi. I kroppen finns en proteinfamilj, Galektiner, som deltar i många biologiska processer. Ett av dessa protein, Galektin-3, är involverat i utvecklingen av cancer vilket gör att This master thesis consists of two parts, which both deal with NMR studies of the carbohydrate-binding domain of the protein galectin-3 (Gal3C). In the first part, 19F relaxation of two difluorinated diastereomeric ligands bound to Gal3C was analyzed with the model-free approach to extract information about the dynamics. The second part reports the assignments of the backbone amide 1H/15N resonanc

NASA's GPM satellite rainfall products IMERG early run and IMERG late run were evaluated for their applicability in flash flood forecasting. The selected catchment was the upper Han River basin, a mountainous catchment with low precipitation in winter and heavy precipitation during summers located in central China. The evaluated period spanned from 2015-03 to 2016-03 and is limited by the IMER

Detta examensarbete behandlar tre undantag till rätten att få sin sak prövad i domstol. Undantagen är 42 kap. 5 § första stycket andra meningen och 50 kap. 13 § första stycket rättegångsbalken (1942:740) samt pactum turpe. Syftet med uppsatsen är att fastställa rättsläget för de tre rättsreglerna och att komma till en slutsats om rättsreglerna är förenliga med artikel 6.1 EKMR. Det krävs att tvistThis thesis deals with three exceptions to the civil right to have one's case examined in court. The exceptions are chapter 42 section 5 and chapter 50 section 13 in The Swedish Code of Judicial Procedure, and pactum turpe. The purpose of the essay is to determine the purview of the three rules and to come to a conclusion if the rules are compatible with Article 6 (1) of the ECHR. The adjudica

This thesis studies how modern spatio temporal databases of land use changes can be created based on historical maps. The entire study was conducted based on the available maps over the study area, in southern Sweden. The research was conducted in such a manner that it presents to what extent can land use changes affect biodiversity and climate change. The thesis is not focused on what are the dri

Problemformulering: Med sociala mediers stigande popularitet har influencer marketing blivit en relevant strategi för företag att utnyttja. Influencer marketing på Instagram innebär att varumärken använder sig av influencers för att kommunicera budskap till följare och därmed företagets målgrupp. Beroende på hur företag använder sig av sin influencer marketing-strategi kan konsumenters förtroende

Sammanfattning Grundprincipen för utrymningsdimensionering är att tiden det tar att utrymma en byggnad ska vara mindre än tiden till kritiska förhållanden uppstår. Enligt Boverkets byggregler kan en inåtgående dörr till lokaler som rymmer fler än 30 personer bidra till köbildning vid utrymning, därför föredras att dörren öppnas utåt. Tvärtemot Boverkets byggregler är en utåtgående dörr vid vissaAbstract The purpose of the study was to investigate if the inwards door in a room that holds more than 30 people leads to queue formation. Queuing can lead to prolonged evacuation, which increases the risk of people still being in the room when critical conditions arises. In this study, movement times with inward and outward opening doors were examined as well as queuing in both directions. The s

When insurance companies calculate compensation for products no longer on the market, they need to identify an equal product for val- uation. Subjectively matching products poses a unique challenge with a many-to-many pairing, which is currently handled by an algorithm that requires day-to-day maintenance. This thesis investigates current methodologies and tools and presents unique machine learninInsurance companies manually find replacements for thousands of products every day. Can a machine replace the manual labor while remaining faithful to the consumers’ desires?

Three non-symbiotic hemoglobins (nsHb) have been identified in Beta Vulgaris (sugar beet). These are hexacoordinated Hbs with high oxygen affinity. The spectral properties for one of these, BvHb1.1 was analyzed and its molar absorption coefficients determined. Furthermore, an initial safety analysis was carried out by studying the cleavage of plasmid DNA (pDNA) induced by these proteins. The resul

Climate change adaption is becoming more and more crucial within sustainable urban design. Global warming affects an increase of heavy rainfall events in Europe and especially in Germany. Deggendorf, a city in southeast Germany, has experienced a severe flood in 2013 caused by a dike burst. The chosen site in Deggendorf lies next to a dike park and has unused potential to be developed. The thesis

Background In traditional retailing, where the challenge lies in providing goods in a store with limited space while minimizing tied up capital and obsolescence, good inventory management is often an important competitive advantage. However, the emergence of the online channel changes some of the challenges, and the associated requirements on inventory management. These dierences are studied in th

In today’s connected world, businesses are increasingly going online. Additionally, the online industry is transforming into an international business arena, flourishing with opportunities to grow and expand. However, the internationalisation has raised a number of challenging issues. One of these challenges is foreign exchange. Foreign exchange is needed to sell and buy on markets with different

Bakgrund: Det har skett en förändrad marknadsmiljö hos patentbyråerna idag, i alla fall för de större byråerna. Förr agerade patentbyråerna mer som ordermottagare, efterfrågan var stor i förhållande till antalet aktörer på marknaden. Vilket gav patentkonsulterna en starkare position i förhandlingarna med kunder. Detta har förändrats, på senare tid har det krävts mer arbete från patentkonsulter

Bakgrund Vid gruvdrift uppstår miljöfarligt avfall i form av gråberg som innehåller metaller som kan urlakas. Avfallet kan oskadliggöras genom att lägga ut tät morän som ett vattenhållande tätskikt kring gråbergsupplaget. Transportkostnaderna för detta är oftast höga då morän av tillräcklig kvalitet måste hämtas långt ifrån upplagen. Studier har visat att kvaliteten på morän kan förbättras genom a

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for distribution center location in order to reduce distribution costs for small, fast growing companies on the Nordic market. Methodology: In the methodology chapter, relevant research methodology for the type of study conducted in this report is presented. It is concluded that a case study is the most suitable approach for the purpose

This study explores the practical applicability of the Communication Value Circle (Zerfass & Viertmann, 2017), a recent theoretical framework that describes value creation through communication in 12 dimensions drawn from four generic corporate goals. The research objective is to evaluate whether key claims from the CVC hold up in practice. Hence, a multistage research design comprising two ro
