Informationssäkerhet hos företag: En studie i hur företag arbetar med CIA-triadens komponenter och hur detta påverkas av mänskliga faktorer
Säkerhet ses oftast som en del av en teknisk lösning vilket gör att företag har en tendens att dedicera mer resurser till teknisk säkerhet, snarare än strategisk säkerhet. Mänskliga faktorer kan ha en avgörande negativ roll för informationssäkerheten inom företag om grunden till informationssäkerheten inte hanteras på rätt sätt. Uppsatsen undersöker kopplingen mellan modellen CIA-triadens olika de
Learning strategies for reading and listening in the Swedish national syllabus for English : a case study of four English language teachers' best practices
Language learning strategies are presented in several parts of the Swedish national syllabus for English for high school and teachers are expected to both teach learning strategies and to test and grade students’ use of them. Despite supporting documents, teachers have expressed an insecurity regarding what in the Swedish national syllabus for English is referred to as “[…] strategies to assimilat
Energy storage in grid optimization
Today energy supply is moving towards more renewable, which brings challenges to the power grid. Intermittent power is difficult to predict and cannot be regulated in the same way as conventional power. If the grid is not dimensioned to handle the power peaks, the intermittent power can cause overload on the grid. Overload causes larger losses, can damage electrical components in the grid and/or a
A critical review of the global minimum variance theory
The main purpose of this thesis is to give a basic understanding of the GMV portfolio theory and the problematics that arise when using the sample covariance matrix as the only parameter. The reason for this is the amount of estimation error that tends to increase as the sample covariance matrix goes to a higher dimension. In an attempt to reduce the amount of error, an alternative approach based

This bachelor thesis is a critical policy analysis of two legislative proposals, L155 and L158, currently debated in the Danish Parliament. The proposals concern security measures for the potential extraction of uranium and other raw materials in Greenland. The aim of the paper is to examine the premises of the mentioned discussion and thereby derive knowledge about the current power relations bet

Locating Faults on Energized Airfield Lighting Power Cables
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of both online and offline fault location and state of health technologies for airport series circuits used to provide power to light fixtures on the runway. In current series circuits, only some ground faults can be detected and no automated fault location or state of health features are available. Fault location is currently performed w
Randomized Quasi-Monte Carlo Methods for Basket Option Pricing Where Underlying Assets Follow a Time-Changed Meixner Lévy Process
Using derivative securities can help investors increase their expected returns as well as minimize their exposure to risk. For a risk-averse investor, options can offer both insurance and leverage and for a more risk-loving investor they can be used as speculation. Basket option is a kind of option whose payoff de- pends on an arbitrary portfolio of assets. The basket is made out of a weighted sum
Versatile Test Rig
This report is about further development of a test rig called the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Test Rig, called the DMRC Test Rig. A method for testing pneumatic valves,used in the systems for train brakes and called brake valves, was developed.The main objective was to automatize the testing of all existing and future developed pneumatic brake valves, made by the company Faiveley Transport, using
Beyond economic growth: The new Integrated National Care System in Uruguay, a step to where?
Uruguay is facing a care crisis due to low birth rates, the increase in life expectancy and the inclusion of women in the labor market. Between 2010 and 2012 the official discussions about the creation of a new Integrated National System of Care social policy reform were carried out. In this research, the relationships between the market, the society and the state present in those initial delibera
Comparisons between different multi-criteria decision analysis techniques for disease susceptibility mapping
Geographic information system multi-criteria decision analysis (GIS-MCDA) procedure can combine criterion maps together and associated the criterion weights to acquire an overall value for each spatial location in the research area. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), Ordered Weighted averaging (OWA) are three generic algo

Social Dominans Orientering, Honesty-Humility och dess effekter på lögn.
Den här undersökningen avsåg svara på frågor om relationen mellan lögner, Social Dominans Orientering (SDO) och Honesty-Humility. Social önskvärdhet undersöktes också i relation med alla variabler. Metoden som valdes för den här undersökningen var webbaserade enkäter med ett bekvämlighetsurval, med 131 deltagare. Resultatet blev att Honesty-Humility hade en signifikant stark negativ korrelation meThis paper was designed to answer some questions about the relationship between lies, Social Dominance Orientation (SDO) and Honesty-Humility. Social desirability was also investigated in relation to all the other variables. The method chosen for this paper was a web based survey with a comfort selection and 131 participants. The result was that Honesty-Humility had a significant strong negative c
Time Synchronization in Short Range Wireless Networks
Energy efficient wireless devices is a trend that has been on the rise the last few years. Energy efficiency properties may fill a function in wireless sensor networks where the devices could run on coin-cell batteries and still last for years. To make sense of the sensor data collected, there is a requirement of accurate time synchronization in the network. This report focuses on investigating if
Parameter Analysis and Future Development of the Periodic Shadowing Concept
Periodic Shadowing is a software post-processing technique for suppressing stray light. A proof-of-concept was recently published so an analysis of the involved parameters is needed to allow for a deeper understanding of the technique. In this project the three most important parameters in the technique are analyzed and their impact on the results of optical spectroscopy measurements is evaluated
