An industry in distress was the breeding ground for a noted pricing strategy, labeled name-your-price. The industry was the music industry and the pricing strategy bears reminiscence of how medieval buskers earned their living during the dark ages; by letting the customers decide how much the good was worth, embodied by a thrown coin into a hat or similar collector. Translated into the contemporar

This study aims to contribute one piece to the puzzle on why industry plants in the U.S. choose to comply with environmental laws under seemingly low incentives i.e., few inspections and low fines. This study investigates private enforcement, specifically citizen suits, as a possible determinant of plants' compliance behavior. Empirically, the study focuses on compliance with the Clean Water

The goal of this thesis is to investigate whether it is possible to construct an advanced measurement approach (AMA) model for operational risk when the number of internal data points are very scarce. An AMA model should combine internal data, external data, scenario data, and business environment and internal control factors to give a one year VaR estimate with 99.9 % confidence of operational ri

Nowadays the technology is progressing continuously. The designers are developing products with new features and always giving to the user an innovative technological solution for the society problems. The standard methods to design new devices are becoming slower for the demand of the products. Due to this growing complexity, some possible substitutes of the traditional Register Transfer Level (R

Den här uppsatsen handlar om hur sång kan användas som en språkutvecklande metod i SFI-undervisning. Syftet är att undersöka om det finns fördelar med att använda sång i uttalsundervisning för SFI-studenter samt hur studenterna upplever språkundervisning där musik integreras. Forskningsfrågorna som vi arbetat efter lyder: Vilken effekt har sång i SFI-undervisning på studenternas uttal? Hur uppleveThis study examines how singing can be used as a language development method in second language acquisition for immigrants in Sweden. The aim is to investigate whether there are advantages of using singing when teaching pronunciation to second language students, and how students experience education where music is integrated. Our research questions are: What effect has singing on students’ pronunc

The aim of this study is to examine what rhetorical themes and features are present in the speeches of Julius Caesar’s De bello Gallico and De bello civili. The investigation is based on the 172 speeches found in De Bello Gallico and the 83 speeches found in De Bello Civili. Lausberg’s Handbook of Literary Rhetoric: A Foundation for Literary Study provides the theoretical framework for the analysi

This study examines if there are any behavioural differences in-store between consumers who choose a healthy product and consumers who choose a regular product. 540 observations were conducted were different variables were studied. Tthe results indicate that there are some variables that show a significant difference in behaviour at the point of choice between consumer who choose healthy products

This essay examines female representation in political leader positions. The study is contucted via a two case study of two autobiographies written by women - Gro Harlem Brundtland and Margaret Thatcher - who have served as chiefs of government. This case study is analysed through a theory which tries to explain the reasons behind the low representation of female political leadership. In this way

Inlandsvatten är globalt sett nettoutsläppare av koldioxid (CO2) till atmosfären. En stor del av den CO2 som produceras i akvatiska ekosystem kommer från baketrieplanktons mineralisering av löst organiskt kol via respiration (BR), där de tar upp syre (O2) från omgivningen och producerar CO2. Teknikerna för att mäta O2 konsumtionen är bättre utvecklade än de för att mäta CO2 produktionen. För att rDissolved organic carbon (DOC) enters inland waters from the surrounding terrestrial ecosystems, and is assimilated by bacterioplankton, mineralizing it to carbon dioxide (CO2). This bacterial respiration (BR) is an important part of carbon processing in freshwater, but it is also a process of global significance; in oceans and inland waters combined, BR is probably the largest single sink of orga

This project started as an exploration of robotics with the goal of developing a product concept utilizing the technology in a way that makes sense. By looking at the application areas of today, recent technological developments and its speculated future applications, the focus became on developing a robot for elderly care.

In the wake of alarming reports from IPCC, policy makers all over the world have recognized offshore wind power to become an essential contributor in the future renewable energy system and battling of climate change. However, many countries including Norway lack extensive areas of shallow water suitable for conventional offshore wind, hence an interest for deep offshore solutions has arisen. One o

Adaptive Wavelet Rendering is a sampling method used for ray tracing in order to render photorealistic images. The concept of wavelets and the so-called discrete wavelet transform is used to create a multi-scale view of the image when sampling. This allows the method to identify image variance on different levels and therefore to differentiate and appropriately handle variance resulting from sharp

The World Energy Outlook (WEO) is an annual analysis from the International Energy Agency (IEA). It compiles global energy statistics and project market trends 15-25 years into the future. The analysis has high impact as it is used widely in business, academics and to inform policymakers. This essay analyse the credibility and reliability of previous WEO with a focus of the editions from 1994, 200

The presence of endocrine disrupting compounds, so-called EDC’s, in aquatic environments has become an emerging issue for environmental health. Since the 1990’s these compounds have been displaying estrogenic effects on aquatic organisms downstream from sewage treatment plants (STPs). The cause of the problem is mainly the inability of conventional STP’s to remove these unwanted substances from ou
