Vad utgör ett missbruk av skatteavtal? En studie av OECD:s och Sveriges syn på skatteflykt vid skatteavtalstillämpning

Ett skatteavtals huvudobjektiv är att förhindra juridisk dubbelbeskattning för att främja den globala ekonomin. Detta har under en längre tid ansetts innebära stora möjligheter för skattesubjekt att minska, eller totalt undgå, skattebelastning. Sådana förfaranden medför skadliga effekter på den fiskala miljön och den globala ekonomin i stort. Den inneboende slitningen mellan å ena sida främjandet The main objective of a tax treaty is the avoidance of juridical double taxation in order to further the development of the global economy. Tax treaties has, however, for a long time been known to function as a vehicle for taxpayers to reduce or all together avoid taxation. Such arrangements or schemes cause adverse effects to the fiscal environment and the global economy at large. The inherent di

Energy-efficiency in Industrial Buildings by Lighting Solutions; A Case of Smart Lighting

”Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, οf forms assembled in the light.” Le Corbusier. Nowadays, lighting covers a great portion of the total energy use of a building, almost 21%, while in most of the places, the quality of the existing lighting conditions is usually notably poor. In addition, lighting is responsible for 14% of all electricity demand in EU (CELMA, 2011) and 19

Hardware Implementation of Number Inversion Function

Nowadays, number inversion is of great significance and a complex arithmetical operator, especially the implementation in hardware. It provides a higher speed performance and lower power consumption. Initially, the conversion of the inputs to floating-point numbers contains sign, exponent, and mantissa parts. The scope of the project is to perform an approximation of the number inversion function.

Issues of geographic context variable calculation methods applied at different geographic levels in spatial historical demographic research : a case study over four parishes in Southern Sweden

Spatial analysis is dependent on the geo-referencing quality of the spatial data, as well as on the definition of the geographic context variables used. However, these facts are rarely taken into consideration in historical demographic research where the geographic factor is considered. An important obstacle in this kind of research is the availability of historical data (spatial and non-spatial),

Underlättande och hindrande faktorer vid implementering av nya arbetssätt i barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin. En studie av ett pilotprojekt.

Studiens syfte var att kartlägga underlättande, respektive hindrande faktorer i en implementeringsprocess. Detta gjordes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer av chefer och behandlare från de BUP-kliniker som ingick i implementeringsprojektet ”Deplyftet” (EBP-DL). Forskningsfrågorna för studien var: 1) Hur uppfattar behandlare och chefer implementeringsprocessen och EBP-DL:s olika delar? 2) Vad uppfaThe purpose of the present study was to study an implementation process of evidence based practice guidelines for assessing and treating youth depression within the project “Deplyftet” (EBP-DL). The method used was semi-structured interviews with participating managers and practitioners from the four BUP-clinics in EBP-DL, and research questions were 1) How do participants experience the implement

Strict separation between OS and USB driver using a hypervisor

During 2014, an attack called the BadUSB attack surfaced. This attack allows the attacker to reflash the firmware of a USB devices and make it perform malicious tasks. One particularly interesting attack whose source code has been released recently includes modifying a USB flash drive into also acting as a keyboard thus enabling it to send malicious keystrokes. This thesis presents a modified ver

Kinematic Robot Calibration Using a Double Ball-Bar

Calibration of robots is an essential part of industry today when there is a high accuracy requirement. Several calibration methods have proven to be highly accurate but also expensive and time consuming to use. In this thesis a new calibration method has been developed. The method does not depend on any external measurement systems but instead rely entirely on the robot’s own sensors. The method

Avtal om framtida överlåtelser av fast egendom

Avtal om framtida överlåtelser av fastigheter är enligt en gammal svensk rättsprincip, pactum de contrahendo, ogiltiga. Med avtal om framtida överlåtelser avses avtal som medger förköpsrätt, option eller termin. Möjligheten till avtal av sådant slag beträffande fastigheter har prövats i domstol vid ett flertal tillfällen, ogiltigheten har då hänvisats föreligga till följd av de formkrav som ställsThis research examines whether contracts that regulate future real estate purchases are to be permitted in Sweden. An investigation of the present as well as the historical legal position has served as a basis for the assessment made by the authors. Additionally the research investigates possible regulations of future real estate purchases in the event of a legalisation. Contracts governing futur

Out of sight, out of mind

This paper is about policy agenda and climate policies in Sweden. It examines why the alternative of a meat tax isn’t placing on the Swedish policy agenda. The study uses John W. Kingdon’s theory on agenda change presented in his book Agendas, Alternatives and Public Policies, to analyze why a meat tax isn’t seriously considered as a climate policy to reduce GHG-emissions from meat consumption. Th

Investigation of the Effects of Compound X on Human Skin Cells

Skin ages as a result of the failure of several mechanisms that are triggered by both internal and external factors. The accumulation of damaged proteins is an effect that comes with age due to the dysfunction of the proteasomes and their decline in activity, which leads to dull looking skin. In addition, as we age the effects seen on are skin includes the formation of age spots as well as hyperpi

Understanding the Parasitic Effects on the Microwave Interferences at Hearing Instrument Level up to 6GHz

The use of electronic devices which radiate high power electromagnetic waves has seen a significant increase in the last 20 years.
