Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och analysera innehållet i bankers riskrapportering och huruvida en förändring har skett. Teorin innefattar en definition av riskbegreppet, samt vilka typer av risk en bank kan ställas inför. Det redogörs även för vad den institutionella teorin och ägarkostnadsteorin innebär. Utifrån teorierna presenteras slutligen Abrahams och Shrives (2014) modell om kval

Omegapoint AB acquired a TurtleBot 2 to explore one of the more popular open source robots on the market. Omegapoint wanted a web application, written specifically for them, to control the TurtleBot 2 for use in the Omegapoint office environment. One of the main things taken into consideration when designing the application was that it had to be runnable and usable not only on stationary computers

Prevas has in its customer contracts had a need for a simpler general manager for process recipes which send recipe parameters (eg rotational speed of a mixer or temperature in a furnace, etc.) to a Programmable Logic Controller. Software for this is available on the market but are either too complex or costly. To solve this problem a Windows service was developed. This report briefly describes ho

Bildbehandling av mitoser i digitala patologibilder I digitala bilder av vävnadsprov finns en klar relation mellan celldelningar och cancer. Att avgöra om vissa strukturer är cellkärnor i delningsfas eller inte, kan vara svårt. Detta arbete avsåg bildbehandling av skärpa och kontrast för att underlätta medicinsk bedömning. Cancer är en av våra dödligaste sjukdomar. När cancer diagnostiseras tas Identifying mitotic figures in digital pathology images is useful in diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. The task itself is time consuming and sometimes difficult for pathologists. Recent research has focused on machine learning for automatic detection of mitoses. The aim of this work was to apply image processing to facilitate ocular examination of mitotic figures in hematoxylin and eosin stained

För att särskilja sig från konkurrenter investerar organisationer enorma summor i att koppla sitt varumärke till en viss färg. Vid skapandet av brand equity är brand elements så som logotyper en central del. Vilken betydelse har egentligen färg på logotyper och vad påverkar det utifrån ett varumärkesperspektiv? Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda huruvida användandet av olika färger på logotypTo stand out from competitors, organizations invest large amounts of money to associate their brand with a certain color. In terms of creating brand equity, brand elements such as logos are of vital importance. What influence does the color of the logo have and what does it affect from a brand perspective? The purpose of the study is to investigate how the usage of different colors in logos affec

Fallstudien har genomförts med en kvalitativ utgångspunkt med en deduktiv ansats som har inslag av induktion. Studiens analys, diskussion, modell och slutsats grundas i vetenskapligThe purpose is to increase the understanding of how middle managers can affect internal branding and to clarify which elements of internal branding that makes middle managers a strategic tool for organizational changes in the service industry. The case study has been conducted with a qualitative basis with a deductive approach that has elements of induction. The study's analysis, discussion, m

In modern electronics, device downscaling demands atomic precision control and Atomic Layer Etching (ALE) can provide this prime capability with minute device damage. ALE, also known as layer-by-layer etching, is a technique of removing atomically thin layers from the surface of materials in a controlled way. This technique is now very crucial for nanofabrication and semiconductor industry in orde

The purpose of this essay is to examine how the male participants of the Swedish version of Paradise Hotel express friendship and gain power. To answer the questions of issue, 8 episodes of the reality-TV show have been analysed through Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis. The theoretical framework is based on R.W. Connell’s theories regarding masculinities, Judith Butler’s theories re

Imaging in scattering media is used in different fields such as medicine for the diagnosis of tissues or in combustion to study spray injection systems. The problem with imaging in scattering media is the blurring induced by multiply scattered photons. There exists techniques to reduce multiple scattering detection, based on various filtering approaches. Two-photon excitation fluorescence imaging

Klimatförändringen är en av vår tids stora utmaningar. Energieffektivisering och satsning på förnyelsebar energi måste ske på bred front. Viljan finns, men industrier och företag hindras av att verka i detta kvartalsrapporteringens tidevarv.

Purpose – Our research aims to discover what happens to entrepreneurship students after their graduation and whether there is a link between their decision styles and their persistence in pursuing an entrepreneurial career Methodology – An exploratory, mixed-method approach was employed, combining a quantitative, self-completion questionnaire with qualitative, in-depth interviews in order to colle

This study addresses the question whether – and to what extent – work-related characteristics can explain the differences in retirement rates across thirteen European countries. To answer the research question from a gender perspective, a logistic regression and Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition analysis is conducted for the female and male population in each of the selected countries based on data fro

Disease susceptibility mapping can produce risk maps showing predictive distribution of disease incidences. Hence, it is a useful tool for disease prevention. Data-driven approaches for disease susceptibility mapping model relationships and patterns from experience data. Therefore, using data-driven methods can facilitate a simple and direct approach towards disease susceptibility mapping. In th

The Hanson Larson evolution model assumes that wave height grows or decays from an initial condition towards an equilibrium wave height through a simple exponential growth. The model uses wind input data, fetch length and depth measurements. Using this input parameters, it both determines the wave height and period values, thus predicts wave climate. The model is developed using deep water conditi

This thesis explores the complex and diverse ways in which European Muslim converts create and negotiate a sense of belonging as migrants in Dubai. Drawing on ethnographic work conducted in the fall of 2015, it provides an intimate account of the lives of European Muslim women in Dubai. By addressing the intersection between migration and religious conversion, this thesis seeks to add to existing

Constructing dam is a possible solution for remitting the scarcity of irrigation water resource in Bortala, Northwest China. Considering the complexity of dam site selection, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was chosen in combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) as the method of Multi-Criteria Decision Making on selecting dam site. Precipitation, slope, geological layer, soil type, land

The app-industry today is ruled by two giants, namely Android and iOS. For companies and developers, it is essential to deliver their product to the majority of users, thus adapting to both platforms. The platforms involve their own way of developing applications and only barely resembles each other. A problem that the industry faces resides here, having to hire staff with knowledge in either Andr
