Dagens TV-program bygger i de flesta fall på ett bakomliggande TV-format. Formaten har under de senaste åren blivit en allt viktigare del av TV-industrin och idag är de föremål för en handel som årligen omsätter miljardbelopp. I takt med att marknaden för format expanderat har ökande konkurrens inom mediebranschen gjort att striden om TV-tittarna hårdnat. TV-bolagen har tvingats fokusera allt mer The television programs of today are in most cases based on an underlying television format. The use of TV formats has in recent years become an increasingly important part of the television industry and today they are subject of a billion dollar trade. As a result of the format market's expansion and the increased competition within the media industry the battle for viewers has intensified. T

Problem definition: In recent years, Kalmar has received an increased number of requests and indications from the market concerning automated solutions in the industry. In the paper industry this is mainly caused by the increased costs in the customer's key processes that possibly could be reduced by fully automated solutions. However, there is currently no clear view of the market potential a

Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, which take place at particle accelerators like the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), are known to produce a strongly-interacting, fluid-like state of matter referred to as the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Despite the medium’s short lifetime of approximately 10-23 s, its presence is known to influence particle p

With a growing global population, the demand for food increases, and the development of more sustainable food production becomes increasingly important. One way to improve sustainability within food production is to repurpose nutritious by-products to new food ingredients. Oat drink by-product (ODBP), generated during the production of oat-based beverages, is one such stream. ODBP contains signifi

Most nitrogen and phosphorus transported by world rivers to the oceans is associated with dissolved organic matter. However, organic matter as a potential source of N and P has hitherto been largely neglected in studies of coastal microbial food webs. We examined 50 rivers, draining a major part of the Baltic Sea watershed, with respect to summer concentrations, chemical composition, and biologica

The incidence of Diabetes Mellitus increases globally in epidemic proportions. Type 2 Diabetes is the most prevalent form of Diabetes, comprising 90% of the patients. In Type 2 Diabetes, two processes contribute to the development of the disease: insufficient insulin secretion from the pancreatic ?-cell and insulin resistance of the target organs. This leads to loss of control of blood glucose lev

Popular Abstract in English Retailers are increasingly expected to use their market power to support the societal goal of sustainable consumption and production (SCP). For retailers, the challenge herein lies in the difficulty to translate the abstract societal discourse into concrete action in the marketplace. This thesis argues that retailers are well advised to give more attention to the indiviRetailers across Western Europe are faced with the challenge to integrate the idea of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) into their operations. The difficulty hierin lies in the the lack of any clear understanding or agreement for what the term implies for retailers and how to implement it in retailers’ daily operations. Instead, retailers need to handle a number of different – at times

Popular Abstract in Swedish Här studeras ledarskap ur ett ledningsstilsperspektiv, ett modellperspektiv och ett självinsiktsperspektiv. Den rollorienterade modellen beaktar olika ledarbeteenden som formar olika ledningsstilar och olika kommunikationssätt som i sin tur formar olika kommunikationsstilar. Den rollorienterade modellen beskrivs och undersöks med ett instrument som kallas FLIS och som rThe purpose of this study is threefold. Firstly it is to explore a style-oriented model for leadership which has proven to be valid empirically. Secondly the purpose is to study if there are any differences between the way managers view themselves compared to how their co-workers view them. Thirdly, the purpose of the study is to explore if the so called classical two-factor model of leadership, e

Climate change models predict an increase in the intensity and frequency of drought periods as well as precipitation events. Moisture and its fluctuations have a large impact on soil microorganisms, which are key drivers of the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle. When there is a drought period followed by a rainfall event there is a big CO2 release from soil to the atmosphere, which can dominate the C b

BACKGROUND: Serbia, as the largest market of the Western Balkans, has entered socioeconomic transition with substantial delay compared to most of Eastern Europe. Its health system reform efforts were bold during the past 15 years, but their results were inconsistent in various areas. The two waves of global recession that hit Balkan economies ultimately reflected to the financial situation of heal

The basic pathophysiology of TBI consists of an initial, primary injury including rapid deformation of brain tissue with destruction of brain parenchyma and blood vessels and acute loss of neuronal and glial cells. A key concept in the management of TBI is that not all cell death occurs at the time of primary injury; instead, a cascade of molecular and neurochemical secondary events occur during t

Biomass combustion in grate fired furnaces is an important approach to convert renewable biomass fuel to heat and electricity. It is not only used in the Swedish energy industry but also by a great number of Swedish households for domestic heating. Burning biomass has the advantage of being CO2 neutral. However, it suffers from several difficulties, for example, the poor combustion efficiency ? th

STOFFENMANAGER® and the Advanced REACH Tool (ART) are recommended tools by the European Chemical Agency for regulatory chemical safety assessment. The models are widely used and accepted within the scientific community. STOFFENMANAGER® alone has more than 37 000 users globally and more than 310 000 risk assessment have been carried out by 2020. Regardless of their widespread use, this is the first
