Skiljer sig acceptansen av AR mellan äldre och yngre användare?

Augmented Reality, på svenska även kallat förstärkt verklighet, har lämnat labratoriestadiet och introducerats på konsumentmarknaden. Hittills har AR främst riktats mot användare för att tillföra ett nöje som exempelvis Snapchat:s filter. Många studier har gjorts för att mäta an- vändaracceptans av AR-appar, dock har de i regel utförts på studenter. Detta har medfört att majoriteten av studierna ä

Energy Harvesting for Electronic Systems

Energy harvesting enables products to become more self-sufficient of power and offers the possibility to avoid battery exchange and power cables. The performance and applicability of the most promising or popular small scale energy harvesting technologies are investigated in this thesis. The focus lies on the amount of potential energy that can be harvested and how limited the technology is to a s

Hur bra är digital vård? En undersökning av kvalitet och effektivitet hos en digital vårdcentral

Digitalisering av sjukvården tar idag stor plats i samhällsdiskussionen och ses som ett sätt att möta utmaningarna sjukvården står inför. En förutsättning för ett effektiviserat sjukvårdssystem är en förstärkt och effektiviserad primärvård. E-hälsa och digital teknik är viktiga verktyg för att kunna uppnå detta. I Sverige finns ett fåtal digitala vårdcentraler. För att de ska vara en långsiktig lö

Portfolio construction based on value and momentum: a winning strategy?

This study examines if there are positive effects of constructing portfolios based on value and momentum. Three value portfolios (low, medium, high) and three momentum portfolios are constructed using large cap stocks from the four Nordic Nasdaq OMX exchanges. The portfolios are then re-sorted on an annual basis over the test period 2005-2016. Furthermore, two long-short market neutral portfolios

Protestantism, kapitalism och utveckling i Peru. Athualpa Jerusalen – en fallstudie

Den här fallstudien syftar till att analysera och förklara varför ett visst samhälle i Anderna i norra Peru som arbetar och fungerar under kooperativ som social ordning har varit relativt sett framgångsrik när det gäller att skapa arbetstillfällen och en till synes mer utvecklad organisation. Atahualpa-Jerusalen bildades som ett kooperativ I kölvattnet av jordreformen från 1969 i Peru. Under 1970-This case study aims to analyse and explain why a specific community in the Andes of Northern Peru working under the social organisation of cooperative has been relatively successful in creating work opportunities and an apparent higher level of development and organisation. In the aftermath of the agrarian reform in Peru of 1969 Atahualpa-Jerusalen was formed as a cooperative. In the seventies, m

“Of course we can do this! If the EU takes joint responsibility. If the municipalities in Sweden take responsibility and help each other. If we cooperate” A qualitative text analysis of rhetorical framing of refugee immigration in Sweden between 2014-01-01 and 2016-07-20

In 2016, a new restrictive asylum law was passed in Sweden, which limits asylum seekers’ possibilities of being granted residence permits and being reunited with their families. The passing of new restrictive asylum in law is interesting, since values such as solidarity and cosmopolitan ideals are deeply entrenched within the Swedish welfare state, which were evident in expansive immigration polic

Evaluating the behaviour of Lactobacillus plantarum 299v in non-dairy oat based yogurt using two different packaging materials

There is an upsurge of consumer interest in functional foods, especially probiotics. Alongside there is a global rise in the ‘vegan’ market. However, there is insufficient research and development in the field of non-dairy probiotic food formulations. Development of probiotic oat-based yogurt, called oatgurt that is manufactured by Oatly AB, was studied by incorporating Lactobacillus plantarum 299

Mayonnaise: Quality and Catastrophic Phase Inversion

In industrial production of mayonnaise it is important to both get a product of high quality and to avoid phase inversion. To investigate how the quality and phase inversion point are affected by changes in the production, a high shear mixer and an immersion blender were used to make mayonnaise. The stirring speed, temperature, egg content, egg type and oil content were changed to see how the qual

The World Bank on Empowerment in Liberian Project Evaluations: A Desk Review on Women’s Economic Empowerment in Liberia

The World Bank is a key actor within development, continuously funding projects on women’s empowerment in countries world-wide; Liberia being one of them. Women and girls have been particularly affected by previous conflicts in Liberia, strongly impinging on their participation in the labor market still today (UN Women 2014). Research shows that one of the foremost issues for women today is the fa

Mobile Business Intelligence: Barriärer ur en business analysts perspektiv

Mobile business intelligence (MBI) handlar som namnet antyder om en mobil variant av traditionell business intelligence (BI). Det senaste årtiondets explosionsartade framfart för smarta telefoner och surfplattor har givit nya förutsättningar för användandet av MBI. I övergången från skapandet av traditionella BI-lösningar till MBI-lösningar kan en del barriärer uppstå och det är dessa vi i denna u

Growing technology and innovation in Sub-Saharan Africa through Business Innovation Centres: Case study of Ghana

Bridging the technological innovation gap in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is a concern to governments and development partners. Investments in programmes that will facilitate the diffusion of technology into the public and private sectors have been pursued over the past two decades. Yet, SSA still lags behind in reaping the digital dividend of technology. This study looks at the role of Business Innov

Maurus Servius Honoratus, senantik kommentator till Aeneiden och hans metod, jämförd med en modern filologs (R.D. Williams)

Maurus Servius Honoratus var en grammatiker och lärare som levde på 300-talet och in i 400-talet, i övergångstiden mellan antiken och den kristna eran. Hans kommentarer, framför allt till Vergilius’ Aeneid, är mycket kända och detta är det enda manuskript med kommentarer som bevarats helt intakt från denna tid. De har både uppskattats och kritiserats genom århundraden, men ger en god bild av en unMaurus Servius Honoratus was a grammarian and teacher who lived in the 4th century, the author of a well-known Commentary on Virgil’s Aeneid as well as on his Eclogues and Georgica. This commentary is very well known and even today scholars of Virgil will have recourse to it when having trouble explaining difficult passages in Virgil’s works. Servius explains points of language, but also gives val

Hur snabbt påverkas och nollställs luminiscenssignaler under naturliga ljusförhållanden?

Optiskt stimulerad luminiscens, OSL, är en dateringsmetod som går att tillämpa på geologiska material med en ålder på ca 1 år-200 000 år. Dateringsmetoden grundar sig i att mineralkorn påverkas av naturlig, radioaktiv bakgrundsstrålning och därför ackumulerar energi inom sig, en process som endast sker under mörka/ svala förhållanden. Denna energi kan sedan frigöras genom att mineralkornet utsättsOptically stimulated luminescence, OSL, is a dating method applicable to geological material with an age of ca. 1 year-200 000 years. The dating method is based on the mineral grains reaction to natural, radioactive background radiation, and their ability to accumulate energy within themselves, a process that takes place continuously during dark/cool conditions. This energy may be released by subj

Study of the Loss of Information from the Modified Mass-Drop Tagger in PYTHIA 8 for Z to qqbar

I samband med att teknologin har utvecklats, har också vår förmåga att observera mindre och mindre objekt utvecklats. Detta är för att partiklar kan accelereras till högre och högre fart och därmed till högre energier. Utforskningen av hadroner, med partikelacceleratorer som Large Hadron Collider (LHC), har givit forskare en djupare förståelse om hur kvantkromodynamik (QCD), en av lärorna om materIn this thesis, the information loss from the modified Mass-Drop tagging of a Z to qqbar jet is studied for a pp collision at LHC centre-of-mass energies in PYTHIA 8 using FastJet 3. The jet created by the Z has minimum transverse momentum of 200 GeV. This is then searched for subjets via two methods: a Cambridge/Aachen algorithm and a modified Mass-Drop Tagger with different z-cut values. The sub

The present paper analyzes the corre-lation between the existence of external pressures and Green IS adoption in the case of Swe-dish municipalities. A qualitative research was conducted, with the performance of in-depth interviews with representatives of a 4 Sw

Investigating the Pre-Purchase Phase of the Customer Journey – An Exploratory Study in the Home Furnishing Retail Industry

The purpose of this research was to generate new insights of what causes consumers to recognise needs, how they search for information, and how they evaluate the alternatives during the pre-purchase phase of the customer journey. The selected topic is of relevance, as consumer behaviour has gone through significant changes in recent years as a result of developments in everyday technology. To fulf

Does Attentional Processes Modulate Bimodal Interference in V-EAR Synaesthesia?

Even though the prevalence of synaesthetic-like ‘Visually-Evoked Auditory Responses’ (V-EAR) in the general population is probably immense by all standards, it is hardly ever mentioned in the literature on general synaesthetic phenomena. We decided to try to reproduce earlier findings that about 1/5 experience motion-conjured sound percepts. We did so with a good margin (27% of our participants cl
