We present the DEAL language for heap assertions that are efficiently evaluated during garbage collection time. DEAL is a rich, declarative, logic-based language whose programs are guaranteed to be executable with good whole-heap locality, i.e., within a single traversal over every live object on the heap and a finite neighborhood around each object. As a result, evaluating DEAL programs incurs ne
Over the years, electronic waste accumulation has been on a steep rise, parallel with the technological evolution of electrical and electronic equipment. Companies have adopted circular economy approach to overcome the emerging waste issue in the last few decades, where goods can return to manufacturers or remanufacturers. They can be used after certain modifications or remanufacturing processes.
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has emerged as an important imaging technique for prostate cancer. The use of PSMA PET/CT is rapidly increasing, while the number of nuclear medicine physicians and radiologists to interpret these scans is limited. Additionally, there is variability in interpretation among readers. Artificial intell
Social media is a part and parcel of the daily lives of most people today. From targeted advertisements to affecting the election results around the globe, social media holds tremendous power in the way it shapes narratives and the world we live in. As sustainability has become a hot topic on online platforms, it is imperative to question how it is represented. This thesis explores the representat
By observing a horse´s shape and movement you can get information about signs of disease. From a veterinary perspective the progression of new scientific methods and technological advances towards the field of equine motion and shape analysis may help with diagnosis, early detection of diseases, improving the chances of successful treatment and thereby offer overall benefits to the welfare of hors
Studiens syfte undersöker hur kommunikationen, mellan medarbetare och chef inom restaurang- och cafébranschen, kan bidra till ett hälsofrämjande arbetsklimat. Detta görs genom en kvalitativ undersökningsmetod med fyra semistrukturerade intervjuer och två strukturerade elektroniska intervjuer på två olika arbetsplatser, för att undersöka deltagarnas upplevelser om kommunikationen som rör ämnet orgaThe aim of this study explores how communication, between coworkers and managers in the restaurant and café business, can contribute to a health-promoting work climate. This is done by a qualitative method including four semi-structured interviews and two structured electronic interviews, on two different workplaces, to examine the participants’ experiences about the communication on the topic org
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur incitamentsystem påverkar frontpersonalens agerande utefter mål på två kaféer inom samma kedja, samt om det finns andra faktorer som påverkar utöver incitamentsystem. Därtill studerades ifall det existerar någon intressekonflikt mellan frontpersonal och platschef gällande måluppfyllelse och agerande på kaféerna. Detta för att sedan dra paralleller och skillnThe purpose of the study is to investigate whether the company´s incentives are affecting the frontline staff´s to act accordingly to their goals, or if other factors exist in addition to incentives. The study also highlights possible conflicts of interest between frontline staff and site manager regarding goal fulfillment and behaviors at cafes. This to draw parallels and differences between the
In this paper we present an analysis of the effects of antenna placement on the radio channel properties for Vehicle-to-Vehicle communications based on measurements performed in three different propagation scenarios; highway, urban and rural. Four omni-directional antennas were mounted at four different positions: roof, bumper, left-side mirror and inside windscreen of two standard station wagons
GaAs and GaMnAs compounds grown by low temperature (LT) molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), are promising materials for fabricating novel devices. LT-GaAs has already been used in new devices, as it has subpicosecond carrier lifetimes, good carrier mobility and high dark resistivity. GaMnAs compounds are candidates for integrating ferromagnetic materials into semiconductor devices, as they can become fe
The assignment, provided by Healthydrinks, was to develop a concept on an automat that delivered healthy drinks. According to a survey many believed the choice of beverage affected the health directly or indirectly and the majority would pay extra if the drink contained the recommended daily intake of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. This indicated that there was an interest in healthy drinks.
Våldtäkt är ett ord som väcker många känslor och associationer hos människor i dagens samhälle. Alla har på något sätt kommit i kontakt med det, även om han eller hon inte själv varit drabbad eller känner någon som har. Med jämna mellanrum är våldtäkt och sexuella övergrepp i stort ett stort och hett ämne i media. Tyvärr speglar inte alltid deras bild av hur det ser ut, den som finns i verkligheteRape is a word that arouses many feelings and associations of people in today's society. All have somehow come into contact with it, even if he or she has not personally been affected or knows someone who has. Periodically, the rape and sexual abuse in general is a great and hot topic in the media. I do not always reflect their view of how it looks in the real world. It's easy to think and
I juni 2011 antog ILO konventionen om goda villkor för hushållsarbetare. Konventionen fastställer anställningsvillkor och arbetsrättigheter för hushållsarbetare. Hushållsarbete sker, till skillnad från andra former av arbete, i privata hem utan insyn från det offentliga och är ofta ett ensamarbete. Detta innebär att hushållsarbetare riskerar att bli utsatta för missförhållanden och exploatering. K
I detta examensarbete söker jag svar på om sång- och instrumentallärarna inom de kommunala musik- och kulturskolorna utvärderar och utvecklar sitt pedagogiska arbete. Jag undersöker också vilka metoder de använder för detta, och huruvida frekvensen och metoderna varierar beroende på lärarnas bakgrund, utbildning, och arbetslivserfarenhet. Teorikapitlet ger en bakgrund till begreppet pedagogisk utvTitle: The voluntary evolution - About how music teachers in municipal music schools evaluate and develop their pedagogical work This paper aims to find out if the teachers at the Swedish municipal music schools evaluate and develop their pedagogical methods and everyday teaching. I also explore what methods they use in order to do so, and whether the frequency and methods depend on the teachers&#
Title: "Everybody is talking about reception but what do they really mean?" - Teacher trainers' experience of work with aesthetic communication in perspective of a receiver with a special attention to the reception of music. The purpose of this thesis is to study the notion of reception among a group of teachers at the department of education at Malmö University. Our principal aim is
The events of 9/11 and the subsequently launched ?war on terror? ushered in a new era of world politics. The new, global security agenda came to dominate international politics bringing about the securitization of a range of international policies. As a part of this process, international development cooperation has come to be increasingly articulated in the language of security as well, i.e. it h
After the Cold War the nature and character of international conflict has changed dramatically, from traditional inter-state conflicts to protracted social conflicts. This constitutes a major challenge to contemporary peacebuilders, foremost the UN, but the expanding size and number of peacekeeping missions are threatening to erode UN resources. Peacebuilding scholars have different views on what
