The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how the latency in mobile networks affect the quality of highly demanding and sensitive applications running on it. Furthermore, this thesis will provide some information to what is going on in the field of Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things. It will hopefully spark a discussion about what possibilities will come with the development of the Clou
Population growth, infrastructure and economy puts pressure and demand on the existing power supplies. It puts strains on the current power systems which causes instabilities in the systems. This is an ongoing challenge which needs an immediate solution. The objective of this thesis is voltage stability. This is examined with the help of constructing a small power system using a programming langua
The goal of this study is to find out if participation in an Internet forum can help participants in that Internet forum justify an illegal use of cannabis. Today the most commonly used narcotic in Sweden is Cannabis (CAN 2012). Still, the drug has remained illegal over many years and the Swedish drug policy remains restrictive towards drug use. This paper uses Howard S. Bcker’s three forms of soc
Distriktssköterskan har en nyckelroll i hälsofrämjande arbete med helhetssyn på vårdtagare. Studier har visat att distriktssköterskans roll idag är otydlig och att utbildningen till distriktssköterska är ospecifik. Genom denna otydlighet blir distriktssköterskan utbytbar. Syftet med studien var att beskriva distriktssköterskors erfarenheter av arbete som specialistsjuksköterska på vårdcentral. Stu
In contrast to the Western ideal of secularization, religion has in some cultures maintained its important role in nationalist undertakings. This is the case in Myanmar, a country that is currently in the midst of a state transformation towards democracy after more than fifty years of authoritarian, military rule. This religious nationalism has been taken to a higher level of chauvinism and violen
Syftet med detta examensarbete var att skapa en modell för sambandet mellan absorbans och koncentrationen av sam-eluerurande proteiner. Med jonbyteskromatografi systemet ÄKTA från GE-Healthcare utfördes en separation mellan de tre proteinerna BSA, Lysozyme och IgG. Absorbansen mättes med en UV-mätare vid tre våglängder. Eftersom de nämnda proteinerna inte sameluerar i ett neuturalt pH-värde utfördThe aim of this thesis is to create a model of the correlation between absorbance and concentration of co-eluting proteins. A separation using the chromatograph system ÄKTA from GE-Health care of BSA,Lysozyme and IgG was performed. Absorbance was measured at three different wave lengths. Since the mentioned proteins do not co-elute in a neutral pH the experiments were performed at a high pH-level
Hybrid 56 (H56) is a new vaccine candidate against pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) developed by Staten Serum Institut (SSI) and currently being tested in clinical trial phase IIa. The vaccine consists of three mycobacterial proteins ESAT-6, Ag85B, and Rv2660c that are fused together in a poly-protein. When formulated in a cationic adjuvant (CAF01), Hybrid56 has shown consistent protective efficacy in
I dagens barnhälsovård möter BVC-sjuksköterskan allt fler familjer med samkönade föräldrar. Forskningen antyder att samkönade föräldrar generellt får ett övervägande bra bemötande inom hälso- och sjukvården. Dock tycks forskning kring bemötandet av dessa individer inom barnhälsovården i dag vara begränsad. Syftet med studien var att belysa hur samkönade föräldrar upplever bemötandet från BVC-sju
As hybrid vehicles are growing more popular, new challenges for manufacturers arise to achieve good NVH. This master thesis analyzes an electric motor installation at the rear axle on the Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid with the goal to lower the noise level in the vehicle compartment. Measurements are combined with CAE-analyses to understand the problem areas and the behavior of the existing installatio
The architectural and engineering trend leads towards greater use of glass in buildings. Growing safety awareness often requires laminated glass. Laminated glass is formed as a sandwich of two or more sheets of glass and a plastic interlayer. Laminated glass can for example be used in stairs, floors, roofs, facades and balcony railings. This thesis deals with the most common interlayer polyvinyl
Ligger fröpredation bakom minskningen av fruktträd i tropikerna? I tropiska skogar samsas fler djur och växtarter om livsutrymmet än någon annan stans på jorden. De gynnsamma förhållandena har gjort det möjligt för evolutionen att skapa många avancerade samspel mellan arterna och bland annat uppskattas det att runt ¾ av trädarterna i tropiska skogar är beroende av djur för spridning av sina frön.The hunting of primates and other mammals as bushmeat are a rising problem in tropical areas, with cascading effects which are only recently beginning to be understood. Numerous studies in forests throughout the tropics has shown declines in the regeneration of fruiting trees adapted to primate mediated seed dispersal and an increase in the regeneration of abioticaly dispersed trees. This shift in
Income inequality in China is a topic widely discussed in the literature. So are globalization, and the continuous increase in the presence of foreign direct investment on the world market. This paper uses data from the Chinese statistical yearbooks, to conduct an empirical analysis, based on panel data, to research if there is a relationship between the increasing levels of inter-provincial i
The purpose with this thesis was to examine why Swedish managers choose environmental consultants to a significantly lower extent than auditors as sustainability report assurance provider.
Spatial analysis, playing an essential role in data mining, is applied in a considerable number of fields. It is because of its broad applicability that dealing with the interdisciplinary issues is becoming more prevalent. It aims at exploring the underlying patterns of the data. In this project, we will employ the methodology that we utilize to tackle spatial problems to investigate how the cell
Jakten på fisken i Ringsjön Många vill veta var i sjön fisken finns när man ska fiska och nu finns det en teori som berättar hur fisken sprider ut sig i en sjö. Fiskar sprider ut sig så att områden med mer resurser har fler individer jämfört med delar med mindre resurser. Detta gör att det finns mer individer som konkurrerar om mat i resursrika områden medan i områden där det är svårare att hittaMovements occur among many different organisms and a suggested theory about the pattern of these movements is called the Ideal free distribution. It states that individuals in a complex area with different quality of the habitats will distribute themselves proportionally after resources in the different habitats, so that they can maximize their fitness. Lake Ringsjön is a complex lake, which consi
Surface coatings are used in many applications. An advantage of coating a surface using particles from a dispersion is that a change in, for example, temperature can control the compactness of the surface coverage. In this research the competition between bulk aggregation and surface adsorption of colloidal silica spheres was investigated. The system used contained aqueous dispersions of industria
This master thesis aims to gain an understanding about how managers and members in an organization perceive observed employee silence (intentional withholding ideas at work) and attribute meanings to it. In addition, it aims to reveal, in what situations observers are not able to identify the intentional silence. Organizational culture, sensemaking and power relations and U-turn in criticism are t
This essay's primary purpose is to find out if there are any typical features that can be seen in the expensive homes belonging to the upper class. What makes these homes feel specifically luxurious? Is there something we can call "luxury" that is timeless? I have analysed two interiors from two different eras, both inhabited by the upper class. The concept of luxury and "good
