Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is a crucial aspect to product development. Companies need to make sure their products live up to the standards that exists around the world. One way of reducing electromagnetic emissions is to shield the product, using some conducting material, for instance, copper. An issue arises, though, when transparency is needed, like it is for cameras. At Axis Communicat
The growing demand for network cameras to support real-time image processing and machine-learning applications has created a need for low-power solutions. Although technology scaling makes complex computations feasible, voltage scaling is limited, leading to higher power density and dark silicon problems. One potential solution is the use of Approximate Arithmetic Circuits (AACs). This effectively
The increased human dependence on fossil-based fuels, industrial chemicals, and structural materials has caused a drastic increase in atmospheric CO2 levels during the past 50 years. Consequences of this have been observed in the disruption of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Bioengineering of photosynthetic organisms capable of converting CO2 into biomass and value-added organic molecules prov
Uppsatsen handlar om konkurrerande kollektivavtal. Då arbetsrätten lämnar detta relativt oreglerat i lag präglas området främst av rättspraxis. Arbetet presenterar de parter som slutit respektive kollektivavtal, introducerar begreppet andrahandsavtal och förklarar innebörden av att kollektivavtal konkurrerar med varandra. Det uppstår regelbundet frågor som handlar om konkurrerande kollektivavtal iThis essay is about competitive collective agreements. Since Swedish labor law leaves this relatively unregulated in legislation, the field is primarily characterized by legal practice. The work presents the parties that have entered into respective collective agreements, introduces the concept of the secondary agreement, and explains the meaning of collective agreements competing with each other.
Den ökade andelen kapital som riktas mot hållbar utveckling genom att med offentliga medel frigöra privata investeringar i utvecklingsprojekt genomförda av privata aktörer kan, vid en första anblick, verka som ett framgångsrikt resultat av mobiliseringen av nödvändiga finansiella medel för att uppnå Agenda 2030 och de globala hållbarhetsmålen. Inkluderingen av den privata sektorn att bidra till, The increased allocation of capital that is being directed towards sustainable development through the unlocking of private investments with the use of public funds into private sector-led development projects might, at first, seem as a successful outcome of the necessary mobilization of funds for the achievement of the 2030 Agenda, including the SDGs. The invitation of the private sector into so
Almost everyone is aware of the big problem with increasing antibiotic resistance among bacteria and the importance and need of developing new antibiotics. This bachelor thesis is a part of one such project with the aim to find new possible antibiotics. A promising candidate is a derivative of the sialic acids. The sialic acids are important molecules in the human body where it from the cell membr
The term “utsatta områden”, understood as socially vulnerable areas, is highly relevant within the Swedish criminal policy discourse where the Swedish Police Authority’s definition of vulnerable areas function as both foundation and support for a variety of political strategies concerning social interventions as well as penal policies. However, the criteria of vulnerable areas have come to be link
Problem Sweden has developed to the diverse society of today where companies, both private and public, show a great interest and engagement in Diversity Management. In recent years the management control perspective has dominated the Swedish applications of Diversity Management. Earlier research has not dealt with the question whether or not the diversity work of the companies actually has an effe
The present study explores the value and role of the physical space of the public library from the perspective of the visitors in the context of digitalization. The qualitative research was based on semi-structured interviews with regular visitors of Idé A Drottninghög (Helsingborg, Sweden), Idé A library staff members, and collaborative organizations of Idé A that make use of the library’s physic
The purpose of this study was to explore and learn how the Second Generation Women of Bangladeshi Origin relate themselves to the culture of their host society and the traditions of their parental country of origin. Predominantly, how they look for their choice of a future life partner. This study was carried out in Malmoe, Sweden and New York City, USA, and from both locations, there were total n
In this study, the impacts of two different “methods” for teaching ethics as part of the religious education in the Swedish upper secondary school were compared by means of a non-randomized controlled trial in two parts, involving 542 students. The question was which “method” had the greatest capacity to generate long-term ethical awareness in the students. The intervention condition consisted of
Delayed-acceptance Markov chain Monte Carlo (DA-MCMC) samples from a probability distribution, via a two-stages version of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, by combining the target distribution with a "surrogate" (i.e. an approximate and computationally cheaper version) of said distribution. DA-MCMC accelerates MCMC sampling in complex applications, while still targeting the exact distribution. W
The objective was to provide a clinical setup for photoacoustic imaging (PAI) of the temporal artery in humans and to describe the challenges encountered and methods of overcoming them. The temporal artery was examined in 7 patients with suspect giant cell arteritis (GCA), both in vivo and ex vivo, and the results were compared to that of histology. To adapt PAI to human studies, the transducer wa
This study examines how data governance is enacted in practice for HR data access and use in Business Intelligence (BI) systems within a public sector organization. Using data governance theory, access control models, the CIA triad, and socio-technical systems theory, the study explores the gap between formal governance structures and everyday organizational practice. A qualitative, interpretive s
En av de vanligaste frågorna som brukar ställas till astronomer är om det finns liv någon annanstans i universum. Vi har ännu inget enkelt svar. Framsteg mot ett svar på denna fråga görs lite i taget. Den här avhandlingen är ett av dessa steg.Min forskning är inriktad på atmosfärerna hos så kallade "ultra-hot Jupiters": planeter i Jupiters storlek som kretsar så nära sina stjärnor att de hettas upOne of the biggest questions people ask astronomers is whether life exists elsewhere in the universe. Unfortunately, we don’t yet have an answer. Instead, progress towards an answer comes in small, careful steps. This thesis is one of those steps.My research has focused on the atmospheres of "ultra-hot Jupiters": planets the size of Jupiter that orbit so close to their stars they are heated to tho
Efficient design of urban drainage systems is based on statistical analysis of past rainfall events at fine time scales. However, fine time scale rainfall data are usually lacking in many parts of the world. A possible way forward is to develop methods to derive fine time scale rain intensities from daily observations. This paper applied cascade-based disaggregation modeling for generation of fine
Water harvesting and artificial recharge has been a traditional solution to water scarcity problems in the arid and semiarid Middle East for thousands of years. These techniques are increasingly being encouraged and at present there has been a renewed interest to find improved methods for water harvesting in many arid countries. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the performance an
This article highlights how an aesthetics of religion approach generates significant new insights into well-researched textual material. It does so by looking at Chinese Buddhist biographies focusing on how the world of smell is communicated. Academically established ways of approaching biographies elucidate their historical background and analyze narrative patterns. By looking at the Biographies
