An energy service company (ESCO) is an example of an atypical business concept that generates greater positive externalities as its business grows. The basic business concept of an ESCO is a company that installs energy efficient improvements in their customers' buildings, such as new lighting and ventilation systems, and then recovers expenditures and gains profits by splitting the resulting
Problemformulering: Kvinnor och män tycks shoppa olika. Existerar det ett samband mellan ledningen och butikspersonalens roll vid bemötande av och servicen till kunder, med avseende på kön, i en klädesbutik, och hur ser det sambandet i så fall ut?Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att med hjälp av tre fallföretag, Brothers, Sisters och MQ, undersöka huruvida skillnader i köpbeteende mellan könen k
Syftet är att undersöka mångfaldsproblematiken i ett public service företag genom att undersöka och utvärdera hur enheten NoS tar tillvara på sin mångfaldskompetens, det vill säga den djupa mångfalden. Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ ansats, där vi har utgått från en fallundersökning på Nyhetsenheten (NoS) på Sveriges Television (SVT) i Stockholm, där vi använt oss av semistrukturerade intervju
Sleep has evolved as a universal core function to allow for restorative biological processes. Detailed knowledge of metabolic changes necessary for the sleep state in the brain is missing. Herein, we have performed an in-depth metabolic analysis of four mouse brain regions and uncovered region-specific circadian variations. Metabolites linked to oxidative stress were altered during sleep including
Ozone was applied to return activated sludge in full-scale to study how ozone impacts filamentous bacteria viability (Live/Dead®). Additionally, the ozonated sludges were subjected to anaerobic digestion trials and analysis of micropollutants. Ozone treatment (3-4.8 g O3/kg TSS) improved the settling properties of the sludge by lowering the diluted sludge volume with 7-35%.

Vascular risk factors are believed to be involved in dementia development by increasing risk of the most common dementia types, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia. The aim of this thesis was to study if risk factors affect key brain pathology directly, by using biomarkers for dementia in preclinical stages, and to assess previous findings in a large population-based setting.Paper I: ar
User generated content (UGC) makes up a significant portion of Internet traffic. As opposed to other content, UGC has so far been left outside over-the-top providing network operators content distribution networks (telco-CDN) due to the difficulty in determining optimised placement of such content. The side effect of this is that UGC content is not placed close to end users and therefore occupy un
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denne populationstudie om kataraktkirurgi strakte sig over en pre- og peroperativ fase med indsamling af data i perioden 1986-1990. Den postoperative dataindsamling i denne redegørelse dækker perioden 1986-1992. Epidemiologiske forhold belyses i det første og syvende arbejde. Anatomiske og især refraktive forhold bliver belyst i den andet og tredje publikation. Det fjerThere has been a striking increase in the number of cataract operations in the referral region of the Lund Health Care District during 1986 through 1990, in 1990 reaching 3.6 per 1000 inhabitants. Different preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative variables and observations were registered and analysed for 5878 consecutive cataract cases operated in the period studied. Women predominate in t
I syfte att undvika dubbelbeskattning och på så sätt skapa goda för-utsättningar för tillväxt på den globala marknaden, väljer många stater att ingå skatteavtal. En baksida med skatteavtalen är att de i vissa situationer resulterar i dubbel icke-beskattning. Vissa inkomster beskattas med andra ord inte alls, tack vare skatteavtalet. I syfte att förhindra dessa situationer, väljer många stater att In order to avoid double taxation and thus create good conditions for the growth on the global market, many states choose to conclude tax treaties. However, the downside of tax treaties is that they in certain cases results in double non-taxation. Some income is in other words not taxed at all, due to the tax treaty. To prevent these situations, many states legislate against tax evasion and tax av
Integrationen av datorenheter i dagens fordon har gjort nya och mer avancerade funktioner möjliga. För att kunna verifiera att dessa funktioner fungerar och för att felsöka dem så används så kallade diagnostjänster. Allt eftersom funktionerna i fordon blir mer avancerade och beroende på data från flera olika sensorer och datorenheter så ställs nya krav på diagnostjänsterna att kunna läsa ut mer daThe integration of small computer units in vehicles has made more complex in-vehicle functionality possible. To troubleshoot these more advanced functions, the diagnostic services need to read out more data from the integrated computer units, causing an increased network load. This has caused a demand on more efficient ways of performing vehicle diagnostics. One possible way to decrease the netwo
Due to the environmental impact of food waste and its implications on the economic performance of restaurants, the importance of reducing food waste has taken a central role in the management of restaurants. This paper examines the difficulties which arise in the restaurant industry in their efforts to reduce food waste. In addition the paper aims to answer the following questions: Is food waste p
Ecosystem services have been widely discussed as of late, and more so than ever, has the topic of resilience and sustainable city planning taken an important role in the debate over how we can meet the present challenges concerning livable cities. The costs and the benefits of urban trees is an important factor in sustainable city planning and their consideration early in the planning stages canno
There is a rising demand for decarbonizing the building sector since it significantly contributes to global carbon emissions. With a focus on the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems specifically, this master’s thesis explores the embodied carbon within these building service systems. Utilizing established life cycle assessment methodologies, the case study thoroughly examines the embodied
I följande uppsats, “Det är en tröja att dö för”, kommer den digitala seriemördarfandomen Serialkillershop att analyseras utifrån denna centrala betraktelse: fansens deltagande i konstruktionen av den medierade seriemördaren. Den kombinerade metoden fallstudie och kvalitativ textanalys används för att nå en djupare förståelse för denna process. Webbsidan Serialkillershop är ett exempel på en typ a
