In recent years, the establishment of so-called shared service centers gained popularity and growing number of companies centralizes supporting service in separate business units to bundle those services and perform them efficiently for the rest of the company. The mystery, however,

Djupa faltningsnätverk har blivit otroligt populära de senaste åren tack vare sin förmåga att lära sig att förstå innehållet i signaler och bilder. Dessa djupa nätverk ligg\-er bakom moderna tekniker såsom självkörande bilar och avancerad ansiktsigenkänning i mobiltelefoner. Genom att undersöka hur strukturer kan utvinnas ur dessa nätverk så kan vi förbättra vår förmåga att lära oss nya problem.Deep convolutional neural networks are great at learning structures in signals and sequential data. Their performance have surpassed most non-convolutional algorithms on classical problems within the field of image analysis. A reason behind their success is that even though these networks generally need a great amount of examples to learn from, they can be used to learn smaller tasks through diffe

This report addresses the traffic situation at Lilla Fiskaregatan in Lund, Sweden, where vulnerable road users move together in a space perceived as unsafe and which can make you feel insecure as a road user. In terms of traffic, the street is characterized by a lot of pedestrians and cyclist, having different intentions of walking on or travelling through the street. The street’s eventual problem

Inom matindustrin och djurfoderindustrin finns det stor potential för användning av tång som näringsrikt födoämne. Palmaria palmata (P. Palmata), eller i vardagligt tal, dulse är ett rött sjögräs med högt proteininnehåll (8-35%), som innehåller många mineraler som t.ex. jod och är rikt på fiber. Den vanligaste polysackariden i dulse är xylan. Vetenskapliga artiklar föreslår att xylan är delvis bunSeaweed an unexploited nutritional source with potential in human food and animal feed industry.

Recent surveys show that on average about 70% of the area budget of the system on chip (SoC) is occupied by Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)s, with a capacity ranging from a few kilo-bits to tens of megabits. SRAM (static RAM or SRAM) is a type of electronic memory that uses bistable latching circuitry (flip-flop) to store each bit. SRAM is volatile in the conventional sense that data is eventua

Den klimatpåverkan, resursförbrukning och avfallsgenerering som byggbranschen står för idag är omfattande, till exempel står sektorn för 25–35 % av Europas avfall. Det råder en situation där resurseffektiviteten är låg och värdet av de råvaror som används inte tillvaratas. Förbrukningen av naturresurser är stor och möjligheterna att begränsa detta genom återbruk, där både resurser och inbyggd enerThe building industry is responsible for a substantial climate impact, resource consumption and waste generation. As an example, the sector produces 25-35 % of all the waste in Europe. Currently, the resource value is not captured as the resource efficiency is low. The consumption of natural resources is extensive and the opportunity to limit this through reuse, where both resources and the embodi

This thesis sheds light on a particular group of men in Swedish society: fathers working in business. According to R.W. Connell’s theory, these men hold significant power as businesses become increasingly globalised. Moreover, Connell states, they are bearers of a new form of hegemonic masculinity: transnational business masculinity. This form of masculinity is characterised by a prioritisation of

The purpose of this study was to contribute to increased awareness and understanding of how actors collaborate to solve complex societal problems. The study also intends to contribute to increased knowledge of the relevance of theory network governance in describing collaborative processes. A third purpose was to study if Forward Malmö has the potential to contribute to the work on social sustaina

Att minska biltrafiken: varför är det så svårt? Många kommuner tar nu klimatförändringarna på allt större allvar, och många ambitiösa klimatmål sätts upp i landet. Studien som beskrivs här har fokuserat på kommunala mål om minskad biltrafik i Göteborg, Borlänge och Jönköping och undersökt hur väl dessa mål fått genomslag, och vilka centrala utmaningar som finns inom arbetet. Alltså: hur kan det vThere is a great need to figure out how to reach our many ambitious climate goals. This thesis focuses on municipal goals concerning reducing car traffic, and studies three municipalities (Göteborg, Borlänge and Jönköping) who have all adopted clear goals concerning decreased car traffic. The aim of this thesis is to identify potential goal conflicts and challenges within the municipalities’ work

This study aims to understand how and if the youth recreational centers (fritidsgårdar) in Malmö are able to help the young people that visit them handle different forms of social vulnerability. We have used the report made by the Noa group (Nationella operativa avdelningen) that is part of the police authority, which has identified four vulnerable areas in Malmö. Through the conducted interviews

Idag är kommunikation, marknadsföring och transaktion av produkter nyckelfunktioner för produktförpackningar. Kvaliteten på det grafiska förpackningstrycket är därför av stor betydelse och måste vara konsekvent för stora produktionskvantiteter. En av de vanligaste tryckteknikerna för tryck på papper eller kartong är flexografiskt tryck. Med denna teknik appliceras färger en efter en och genom deraToday communication, promotion and transaction of products are key functions of product packaging. The quality of the package print is therefore of great importance and needs to be consistent for large production quantities. One of the most common technologies for printing on paper or cardboard is flexographic printing. With this technology colors are applied one by one and through their combinati

The Swedish Parliament aims to have one hundred percent renewable energy in 2040. For this goal, further establishment of wind power is considered crucial. There is however a current debate and a potential urban-rural conflict, in the case of wind power. Wind turbines are usually established in sparsely populated areas in Sweden, and even though people are generally positive about wind energy, the

The aim of this study was to understand how social secretaries reflect and act on the dilemma regarding self-determination and integrity for clients in social assistance cases within the framework of an exercise of authority that includes requirements and controls. The following questions were asked: How do social secretaries explain the meaning of self-determination and integrity for clients who

Strategier i en lågkonjunktur - Hur bygg- och fastighetssektorn bemöter marknadsförändringar Av: Camilla Lindbäck och Victoria Heisterkamp Pausade byggprojekt, varsel och svagare köpkraft är exempel på faktorer som signalerar en lågkonjunktur i bygg- och fastighetssektorn idag. Vilket strategiarbete krävs för att dämpa verksamhetsförluster? Och vilka konsekvenser får detta på samhällsutvecklingenThe construction and real estate sector have been operating in a prosperous environment for a long time, enabling high production and turnover. However, the economic situation has been strongly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine in Q4 2022, resulting in a recession that is expected to last for several years. Historically, economic crises have led to decreased ho

This essay aims to answer several questions: how is consumer welfare defined in economics and by the Commission, how has the role of the concept evolved throughout the history of the Commission’s competition policy, and how do the modern problems of digital markets and sustainability affect the role of consumer welfare? It can first be stated that there exists a clear definition and a way to meas

Inom ramen för den offentlig förvaltningen utövar kontrollmyndigheter tillsyn över ett flertal olika verksamheten på vitt skilda områden. Ett exempel är djurskyddsområdet. Offentlig kontroll över efterlevnaden av djurskyddslagstiftningen är reglerad på EU-nivå och tar i första hand sikte på verksamheter som bedrivs i större omfattning. Dessa verksamheter ska genom avgifter finansiera den offentligThe public authorities in Sweden are responsible for official control performed to ensure the application of rules on animal health and welfare. The regulation derives from legislation at the European Parliament and mainly aims to regulate corporations’ compliance with the Animal Welfare Act. The legislation also regulates the financing of official control conducted by the authorities. Those who k

In many of Sweden’s major cities, the majority of apartments in the suburbs are managed and owned by municipality-owned public housing companies. A number of these suburbs are defined by the National Operations Branch (NOA) of the Swedish Police as vulnerable or particularly vulnerable. These definitions are based on the level of influence of criminal behavior within the areas. This study aims to

Distributed optimal control is known to be challenging and can become intractable even for linear-quadratic regulator problems. In this work, we study a special class of such problems where distributed state feedback controllers can give near-optimal performance. More specifically, we consider networked linear-quadratic controllers with decoupled costs and spatially exponentially decaying dynamics
