The aim of this master thesis is to present new and well proven methods about how to best design an overview display. Since designing is a creative process and there can be many alternative designs that fulfill the same requirements, this master thesis will focus on presenting guidelines and principles that will aid in the design process. How to design an effective interface display will be discus
Urbaniseringen i världen har de senaste 60 åren accelererat, och folk bor numera allt tätare och spenderar större delen av livet inomhus. Samtidigt pågår en trend av ökad psykisk ohälsa i många länder, där urbaniseringen kan vara en påverkande faktor. Studier visar att närhet till natur gör oss mer välmående. Ett sätt att uppnå detta inomhus är att ha inomhusväxter. Dock är ett problem med att ha Urbanization in the world has during the past 60 years accelerated, resulting in people living in more densely populated areas and spending a majority of their lives indoors. Another ongoing trend in many countries is an increase in mental health issues, where urbanization could be a contributing factor. Studies have shown that closeness to nature increases our well-being. One way to achieve this
The rise of Business Intelligence (BI) have received attention the last years from both IS re-searches and organizations. Research gaps in BI literature indicates a need to cover BI educa-tion from a country specific context, a graduate student perspective and to review the skillset and domain knowledge for BI professionals. This thesis aims to cover those gaps by exploring the prerequisites for a
In July 2021, single-use plastics will be banned from the European market, meaning that the plastic straws used with Tetra Pak’s portion packs will no longer be permitted. Therefore, Tetra Pak develops new straws, and it is important to test their functionality, something that previously has been done with panel tests. However, Tetra Pak has requested to aid the development process by minimizing t
Nyckelord: Media, väktare, vakthund, informationsförmedlare, tystnad Studiens syfte: Syftet med studien är att utvärdera hur väl media uppfyller sin roll som väktare i sin vardagliga rapportering i Sverige. För att ta reda på detta undersöks även om det skiljer sig mellan affärspress och annan media, samt vad det innebär för medias väktarroll när de inte rapporterar alls. Frågeställningar: Vi haKey words: Media, gatekeeper, watchdog, information intermediary, silence Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study is to evaluate how well the media fulfills its role as gatekeepers in their everyday reporting within Sweden. In addition, the difference between how business press and other press fulfill their roles will also be examined, as well as what it means when the media does not repor
This project was done for the company Beijer Electronics Products AB and the task was given by the hardware development department of the company. The project was about developing a concept proposal for a new generation operator panels. This was done to inspire the product developers at Beijer Electronics with innovative ideas before the actual operator panel development. More in detail the object
For the modeling language Modelica, there is no standard for the testing of Modelica models. In this thesis we investigate a new way to create and run tests by developing an external test authoring tool. Our tool was developed by first examining existing testing practices, and then trying to improve upon those by iteratively developing our tool. This was done while continuously performing user stu
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to explore and critically challenge the potential and limitations of servant leadership to solve the human- related problems in the hospitality industry. Method: Based on the exploratory purpose of this thesis, qualitative data was obtained in a methodology informed by the strategy-as-practice perspective through observations and semi-structured interviews.
As data becomes more accessible and an increasing number of organizations seek to monitor their business activities, the need for reliable Business Intelligence (BI) solutions arises. This thesis is centered around a small/ medium-sized company that provides e-learning solutions. A new BI system is requested with the main purpose of providing an overview of data used for licensing. In addition, th
In this thesis, the objective was to design a base station for a startup company as a compliment to their main product, a control center device. The thesis resulted in a prototype that worked as intended and it fulfilled all desired criteria; charging ability, mountable on walls and placeable on flat horizontal surfaces. The prototype is divided into two parts: One unit, the station, and one unit
We study the Al-Salam-Chihara polynomials when q > 1. Several solutions of the associated moment problem are found, and the orthogonality relations lead to explicit evaluations of several integrals. The polynomials are shown to have raising and lowering operators and a second order operator equation of Sturm-Liouville type whose eigenvalues are found explicitly. We also derive new measures with re
Existing bridges were designed to satisfy old specifications, and most of them were based on a member-oriented approach. A bridge superstructure is constituted by a group of elements that together form a system, and depending on how robust the system is, a member-oriented approach losses accuracy. Therefore, in this study a preliminary framework of how to assess concrete bridges' robustness is pre
“Epidemiology of comorbidities and their association with asthma control” (Tomisa, G., Horváth, A., Sánta, B. et al. Epidemiology of comorbidities and their association with asthma control. Allergy Asthma Clin Immunol 17, 95 (2021). https://doi.org/10.1186/s13223-021-00598-3) is an interesting paper reflecting data collection from more than 12,000 asthmatic patients in Hungary regarding their cond
We present the discovery of two exoplanets transiting TOI-836 (TIC 440887364) using data from TESS Sector 11 and Sector 38. TOI-836 is a bright (T = 8.5 mag), high proper motion (∼200 mas yr−1), low metallicity ([Fe/H]≈−0.28) K-dwarf with a mass of 0.68 ± 0.05 M and a radius of 0.67 ± 0.01 R. We obtain photometric follow-up observations with a variety of facilities, and we use these data sets to d
This paper explores how entrepreneurial legacies can have broader social impact beyond the identity of founders, the organization that they created, or their own philanthropic activity. Thus, we illustrate how, in the South African context, social entrepreneuring may be understood as the values-driven, relational brokering of societal legacies amongst a variety of entrepreneurs. At the heart of th
