Sökmotoroptimering - varför företag inte siktar mot toppen

Sökmotoroptimering (SEO) är ett sätt att arbeta på som förbättrar ens hemsidas ranking hos sökmotorer. Teorier om hur man ska jobba med det och varför man ska göra det har beskrivits i tidigare litteratur. Trots detta är det ett stort antal företag som väljer att inte arbeta med det. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka varför små och medelstora företag inte arbetar med SEO. Detta görs i en kom

The experience of a heat wave and preparations for a hot future - A case study of climate change adaptation and health risks faced by the elderly population of Trelleborg

Upplevelsen av en värmebölja och förberedelser inför en varmare framtid Det allt varmare klimatet innebär att värmeböljor kommer att bli vanligare i Sverige. Väldigt varmt väder utgör ett direkt hot mot människors hälsa, men tas detta hot på tillräckligt stort allvar i samhället? Den globala uppvärmningen påverkar människors hälsa negativt. Värmeexponering under extremt varma perioder utgör en cAs global temperatures rise, adverse health effects due to heat exposure are an increasingly pressing issue, particularly threatening to the health of elderly people. Mitigating these threats requires a dynamic climate adaptation system embedding a variety of measures. Ideally, such a system incorporates the coping strategies and experiences of the vulnerable themselves in a well-developed strateg

Robotic Process Automation - Robotic Process Automation and its Effects on Job Characteristics

The automation of work tasks has been of high interest for over a century, where different technologies have been developed to serve this purpose. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is one of these technologies, which automates the execution of monotonous and repetitive work tasks previously performed by humans. As a consequence, the employee whose job consists of these work tasks might perceive eff

Clock-shift experiments with blackcaps, Sylvia atricapilla

The ability to navigate from breeding sites and wintering grounds has fascinated numerous avian studies examining the bird orientation performances. The migratory avian navigational toolbox consist of route- and map-based orientation, non-compass, vector and compass orientation. The compass orientation consist of celestial and geomagnetic cues, which are divided into the three main compasses known

Portfolio Optimization Using the Atkinson Index

Traditional mean-variance optimization of portfolios has received much criticism due to its inability to account for higher order moments and non-quadratic utility. In this thesis, the topic of portfolio optimization is studied using the Atkinson index with CRRA utility. We construct Atkinson-efficient portfolios using computer-generated data in Monte Carlo simulations, as well as using financial

Technological innovation and the environment: an analysis based on patent counts

The increasing concern on the present and future impact of climate change has raised the attention on the relationship between technology and the environment. The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of green innovation on carbon emissions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions per capita are used as a proxy for environmental quality. Technological innovation is measure

The Interaction Between Monetary Policy and Macroprudential Policy

The latest global financial crisis ignited the debate on whether the role of monetary policy's main objective, price stability, is enough to achieve financial stability. It also sparked an interest of new policy measures that directly targets the financial system, such as macroprudential policies. In this study, we empirically investigate how monetary and macroprudential policies interact to a

GhostMS: An error-controlled machine learning approach to efficient alignment and quantification of multi-sample experiments in Mass Spectrometry-based Proteomics

In recent years, the field of mass spectrometry (MS) has grown significantly, allowing for shotgun proteomic experiments to be used increasingly in biomarker discovery experiments. However, using standard methods of MS not all peptides present in a sample may be identified. To combat this, a procedure termed alignment, or match-between-runs, is used to propagate identifications from one run to ano
