Structure of the thesisThe structure of the doctoral thesis should be that of a so-called compilation thesis. That is, a summary of scientific articles written by the PhD student alone or jointly with one or more other people [with the articles appended after the summary]. Theses in the form of one unified, coherent scientific work (monograph thesis) may be allowed as an exception, following a spe
In Sweden, implementation of one-to-one computing in schools is a very current subject, because more and more schools decide to make an implementation. The goals are to improve the study results of the students and in a higher degree be able to individualize the education after the needs of every pupil. The purpose of this thesis is to study how an implementation of one-to-one computing will affe
Föreställ er att vi i Sverige skulle legalisera det egna bruket av narkotika. Det skulle bli lagligt att snorta kokain, att skjuta upp heroin eller att röka marijuana. Vad skulle detta innebära för svensk Polis, sett ur ett tvångsmedelsperspektiv? Toleransen i Sverige gentemot droger är väldigt låg. Narkotikafrågan har under en längre tid varit, och är fortfarande, högprioriterad hos regering ochImagine that we, in Sweden, would legalise the personal use of drugs. It would be legal to snort cocaine, to shoot up some heroine or smoke marijuana. What would this mean for the Swedish law enforcement, from a "means of enforcement" point of view? The Swedish tolerance when it comes to drugs is very low. It has for a long time been, and still remains, a top priority for the governmen

Over the years poverty and well-being has taken several definitions. Recently, a wide literature unanimously agrees that the multidimensional aspects poverty such as economic, cultural, social and ecological has close linkages to lack of access to modern energy such as electricity or energy poverty. Thus, a focus on electricity for instance would be one possible mechanism of addressing multi-dimen
Abstract The purpose of this essay is to study how the state governs the population in Sweden 1809-1870. The period from the “revolutionary” government of 1810 to the 1870's is a period of change in Sweden, when old feudal institutions are put under great pressure from economic and social change. The state changes, its relation to the local society changes, and new methods of power and polit
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dokosahexaensyra (DHA) och eikosapentaensyra (EPA) är omega-3 fettsyror, som har hälsofrämjande effekter. De behöver skyddas, DHA i synnerhet, eftersom de är mycket känsliga för oxidation. Flera lipider som innehöll DHA utvärderades med avseende på lipidernas möjlighet att skydda DHA mot peroxidation genom att använda en HPLC metod som utvecklades som en del av detta arDocosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are omega-3 fatty acids, which have health promoting effects. Since they are highly prone to oxidation, they should be protected, in particular DHA. Several lipids containing DHA were evaluated with respect to the ability of the lipids to protect DHA against peroxidation using an HPLC method developed as part of this research. Furthermore,
I svensk aktiebolagsrätt finns en grundläggande princip om att aktier fritt ska kunna överlåtas mellan olika rättssubjekt. Trots att principen får anses vara skyddsvärd har lagstiftaren stadgat tre undantag från principen: hembud, förköp och samtycke. Undantagen – kallade överlåtelsebegränsningar – kan införas i bolagsordningen och utgör i praktiken kontrollprocesser genom vilka befintliga aktieägAn essential principle in the Swedish company law is the principle of free transferability of shares. The signification of the principle is to ensure the free transfer of shares between different legal entities. Despite the fundamental nature of the principle, the lawmaker has granted three exceptions to the principle: a post-sale purchase right clause, a right of first refusal clause and a conten
In case of alcohol situations on work places, there are lots of different expressions and definitions as alcohol abuse, alcoholism, chronic alcoholism, alcohol disease, occasional cases of alcohol abuse and alcohol abuse of disease character. The purpose with this paper is to investigate which value different definitions of alcohol problems has got in connection to employers rehabilitation respons
Inom både OECD och EU pågår samarbete för att motverka skadlig skattekonkurrens. OECD:s skattekonkurrenssamarbete omfattar endast geografiskt rörlig verksamhet, såsom finansiell- och annan serviceverksamhet. Organisationen har presenterat ett antal nyckelfaktorer som kan användas för att identifiera skatteparadis och skadliga förmånliga skattesystem och kommer på så vis fram till var skadlig skatt
Fundamental rights and the four fundamental freedoms co-exist in Community law. These two fundamental interests have been placed on the highest normative level by the ECJ. Notwithstanding its similarities, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms are two different notions, where the former is typically human rights and the latter applies primarily to economic circumstances. When these two funda
The L3, or sponge, phase is a thermodynamically stable isotropic liquid consisting of a surfactant membrane in aqueous solution. A solvent induced L3 phase is shown in systems of solvent, monoolein and water. Dimethyl sulfoxide, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, ethanol, N-methyl-alfa-pyrrolidone and 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol are solvents of varying hydrophilicity but are all miscible with bot
Popular Abstract in English Bolivia is the seventh richest country regarding biodiversity in the world. Also, in its territory more than 36 indigenous nations co-exist. Each of these has traditional medicines that are passed on from generation to generation orally. It has been estimated that the Bolivian flora has more than 20,000 plant species. Some of these are being explored for their pharmaceuColon cancer is common in both developed and developing countries, and is responsible for at least 600,000 deaths globally every year. It is therefore the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Extensive studies are being conducted worldwide to find more effective drugs that can be used in cancer treatment. In these studies, phytochemicals have proven to be good sources for drug dis
Popular Abstract in English From the pure technological perspective (leaving the business aside), the design of electronic devices, such as mobile phones, is an extremely complex process often involving a large number of disciplines, from mastering complicated mathematical models to proficiency of physical and electrical properties of specific materials involved in the manufacturing. In order to oThe methodology behind this work has been to use the concept of algorithm-hardware co-design to achieve efficient solutions related to the digital front-end in mobile receivers. It has been shown that, by looking at algorithms and hardware architectures together, more efficient solutions can be found; i.e., efficient with respect to some design measure. In this thesis the main focus have been plac
Previous cytogenetic studies of myeloid and acute lymphoblastic leukemias in children with Down syndrome (ML-DS and DS-ALL) have revealed significant differences in abnormality patterns between such cases and acute leukemias in general. Also, certain molecular genetic aberrations characterize DS-related leukemias, such as GATA1 mutations in ML-DS and deregulation of the CRLF2 gene in DS-ALL. Wheth
Popular Abstract in Swedish Industrin i Sverige och i många andra länder står för en stor del av samhällets energianvändning och energi utgör en nödvändig insats i industrins processer och förädling av produkter. Industriell tillverkning sysselsätter dessutom många arbetstagare både direkt och indirekt i utbytet med övriga delar av samhället och ekonomin. Samtidigt medför energianvändning och relaAt EU and to a varying degree at Member State (MS) level, industrial energy efficiency improvement (EEI) is considered an attractive means for reaching political objectives of different dimensions, not least environmental. For energy-intensive manufacturing industry in particular, EEI can lead to cost reductions, improved profitability and competitiveness. However, research and other analyses show
The theory of ecologically unequal exchange (EUE) posits that contemporary international trade facilitates a net flow of resources from the peripheral global South to feed industrial processes and capital accumulation in the core North. This situation, it is argued, imperils the development of the South. Trade is a socio-metabolic process which can be analyzed through systemic aggregate approaches

This thesis explores the European Commission’s proposal on General Reverse Charge Mechanism. VAT is a final tax on consumption. It is imposed on every transaction in the supply chain with the general aim of being deductible and thus being neutral for businesses with the right to deduct. The initial aim of the VAT system was to operate as if all the transactions occurred in one single country; howe
