This study argues that Brexit is as much an internal UK crisis of law, identity politics and democracy as it is the EU crisis of integration. Does Brexit bring us a new insight into how the legal order of the EU and its Member States are interrelated? Does it throw a new light on the EU law’s ability to produce a sense of collective European identity and solidarity which transcends national borderThis study argues that Brexit is as much an internal UK crisis of law, identity politics and democracy as it is the EU crisis of integration.

In this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to- machine communication in the Internet of Things. We focus on heterogeneous networks in which multiple applications co-exist and nodes may take on different roles for different applications. Moreover, we address network reIn this paper we present new optimization formulations for maximizing the network lifetime in wireless mesh networks performing data aggregation and dissemination for machine-to-machine communication in the Internet of Things.

Background:Traditional primary care is characterized by patient consultations via phone and physical visits. However, the current development in Swedish primary care is to blend digital solutions with traditional solutions. This paper addresses this development by examining the normalization of embedding and integrating a digital health care platform into everyday care routines in a primary care cBackground:Traditional primary care is characterized by patient consultations via phone and physical visits.

Online market makers bring together two or more distinct different parties to interact and transact with each other. By doing this, they either reduce search costs, shared transaction costs, or both. Reducing search costs reduces asymmetric information among users and makes sampling of candidates easier. Reducing shared transaction costs means making the transaction more flexible, less costly, and

Libyen, Rwanda, Irak och Syrien. Listan på humanitära kriser i världen kan göras lång där civilbefolkningen fått lida stora förluster. År 2001 uppkom ett nytt internationellt begrepp och princip, Responsibility to protect.

The present quantitative research focuses on studying the effect of uncertainty in online information search related mainly to travel planning. The main emphasis is in the individual and combined effect of these variables towards different demographic segments of international travelers. In order to do so it draws insights from Uncertainty avoidance (Hofstede, 2001) and information foraging theory

In this master's thesis, data from eight different cases of novice entrepreneurs is gathered. The goal was to investigate how novice entrepreneurs shape their decision-making process to manage uncertainty in the early stages of their ventures. Utilizing qualitative interviews conducted between March and April of 2024, this study delves into the different strategies used by novice entrepreneurs

Global investment decisions are increasingly prioritizing sustainability, and this study examines how firm-level practices toward sustainability have the potential to attract foreign ownership.

Vi bor i galaxen Vintergatan. En plats som vi kan kalla hemma i ett allt växande universum. Men hur mycket vet vi egentligen om våran galax? Det finns mycket som återstår att upptäcka om våran galax. Ett exempel på någonting som vi inte vet hittas när vi observerar den galaktiska disken. Detta är regionen som expanderar horisontellt från det galaktiska centrumet. Disken är uppdelad i en tunn ochThis paper discusses the effects of different types of contamination on 4MOST stellar spectra. Three main types of contamination were tested. These were, a smooth function over the continuum, changing the H-alpha line, and adding telluric contamination. By knowing how much these experiments affected the generated values, it was possible to understand the importance of avoiding overfitting or under

This thesis examines an unconventional issue of human trafficking, which has arisen very recently in the Southeast Asia region. An increasing number of scam centres have been identified, wherein trafficking victims were recruited to operate online fraudulent schemes. This emerging trafficking phenomenon exhibits distinctive characteristics compared to the traditional one, including the flow of mig

Forests are important ecosystems worldwide and in Sweden, where over half of the land is forested. Forestry management strategies significantly impact ecosystem productivity and carbon sequestration. This study focuses on comparing two prevalent forestry management strategies: Rotation Forestry (RF), which uses clearcutting as the prevalent timber extraction method, and Continuous Cover Forestry (

The purpose of this paper is to critically examine how older women interact, perform to their heart's content, learn music, and communicate across cultures around square dancing in a Chinese context. The paper explores how retired Chinese grandmothers use square dancing to build social interactions, find friendships and integrate into diverse group life. It also considers the identity backgrou

Taking a socio-material and practice theory approach and drawing on an ethnographic study of three meal-box providers – The Seasons, Hello Fresh and L

Since the 1950s, no other material has been developed and used to the same extent as plastic. We have built up a society that has integrated plastics into virtually every aspect of our lives. With low material prices, cheap manufacturing methods and its versatility, plastic has quickly become a commodity in society that is consumed in an unsustainable way. Plastic pollution causes immense social,

Genbanker har existerat i en eller annan form i årtusenden. De tjänar som bevaring för biologiskt material. Formerna genbanker kan ta skiftar; De kan vara en botanisk trädgård, ett akvarium, eller ett laboratorie med frysarna fulla av genetiskt material. Ibland kan det röra sig om vävnadsprover, frön, eller DNA, Avsikten är att bevara, även om anledningarna kan vara olika. Det finns många likheterGene banks have in one form or another existed for thousands of years. They serve the purpose of repository for biological material. They can take the shape of a botanical garden, of an aquarium, or as a laboratory where the freezers are stuffed full with genetic resources. Sometimes as tissue samples or seeds, and sometimes as strands of DNA. The intention is to preserve, although the reasons may

Collaborative governance is an approach used by governments to create policies in an equitable manner through the consensus seeking decision-making process via the collaboration of stakeholders that will be affected by the solution. However, one of the many critiques of this approach is that there are power imbalances between those involved, that instead make the outcome inequitable. Collaborative

This paper is a comparative study of different approaches to using a Discrete Time Micro-structure model. By using the three filtering techniques Extended Kalman, Unscented Kalman and Bootstrap Particle, the hidden variables; excess demand and market liquidity, were estimated and used in an asset allocation strategy that invested in the asset when the excess demand as estimated as positive, due to
