A primary functionality of context aware applications is the retrieval of different types of context data from various context sources and adapting their behavior accordingly. In order to facilitate context aware application development, a context aware middleware must provide an effective context data management and lookup strategy. The use of a traditional index for indexing dynamic context data

I denna uppsats undersöker jag Scanlons värdeteori, med fokus på hans syn på intrinsikalt värde, och då framför allt frågan huruvida människolivet kan sägas ha intrinsikalt värde. Genom att först grundligt presentera Scanlons värdeteori – hans hänskjutande redogörelse för värde (eng. Buck-Passing) - och sedan släppa fram kritiska röster, resonerar jag mig fram till en grund att stå på i denna värd
This thesis examines to what extent the comprehensive municipal risk and vulnerability analysis work as a basis for decision-making concerning risk and vulnerability reducing measures in eight Swedish municipalities. An additional objective is to identify mechanisms influencing the decision-making process regarding such measures. In order to meet these objectives an interview study was conducted i
Förevarande uppsats undersöker EU-domstolens praxis avseende värdeöverföringar mellan originaltillverkare av läkemedel och generikaföretag i samband med patentförlikningar (så kallade ‘RPPSs’) för att urskilja under vilka förutsättningar ett sådant förfarande utgör en syftesöverträdelse. Analysen visar att EU-domstolens avgöranden Generics och Lundbeck förtydligar bedömningen av mer okompliceradeThis thesis examines the CJEU’s case law on value transfers between originator and generic undertakings, in the context of patent settlements, to ascertain the criteria for determining when such a practice amounts to a restriction of competition by object. The thesis finds that the CJ’s rulings in Generics and Lundbeck clarifies the treatment of more straightforward RPPSs and follows established
Det råder en global kontinuerlig teknikutveckling som präglar internet med nya innovationer. Många onlinetjänster på internet bedriver sina verksamheter med hjälp av datainsamling av de digitala konsumenterna. Teknikutveckling kräver en insats från både onlinetjänster som behöver vara fortsatt anpassningsbara och digitala konsumenter som behöver begripa vilka konsekvenser utveckling har. Datainsam
Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda hur en organisation kan främja och tillvarata sin kreativa potential. För att finna svar på frågeställningen tog vi till en början till oss litteratur inom kreativitets-, organisations- och förändringsområdena och identifierade därigenom åtta viktiga, återkommande faktorer för att främja och tillvarata kreativitet. Dessa är vision, kontinuitet, delaktighet, mångf
The Commission has put forth a proposal for a Regulation on a Common European Law of Sales (CESL). It is envisaged – as of now – as an optional second regime within each member state‘s law, electable for transnational consumer contracts and contracts among traders, as long as one of them is a small or medium-sized enterprise. The intention is to provide contractors with a level playground of one l
Denna uppsats behandlar frågan om när sjukdom kan utgöra sakliga skäl för uppsägning enligt 7 § lagen (1982:80) om anställningsskydd (LAS). Utgångspunkten i svensk arbetsrätt är att sjukdom i sig inte utgör grund för uppsägning. Syftet är därför att klarlägga under vilka förutsättningar sjukdom ändå kan leda till en rättsenlig uppsägning. Uppsatsen bygger på en rättsdogmatisk metod där lagtext, föThis essay examines under what circumstances illness may constitute objective grounds for dismissal under Chapter 7, Section 1 of the Swedish Employment Protection Act (1982:80). The starting point in Swedish labour law is that illness as such does not justify dismissal. The purpose of the study is therefore to clarify the legal conditions under which illness may nonetheless result in a lawful ter
Background: The purpose of this paper is to explore the underlying challenges in the telehealth environment in India and Pakistan that impede the delivery of high-quality images between a patient and health care professional.Method: An exploratory study was conducted among healthcare professionals in India and Pakistan to assess their perceptions regarding image quality, which is used for the diag
A common type of inhalation medicine uses a dry powder formulation where the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is attached on the surface of carrier particles, often in combination with additional components. The spatial distribution of the API on the carrier particle is critical for the release into the lungs and thus for the efficacy of the drug. In this work, we use ToF-SIMS imaging in com
The aim of this chapter is to explore the safety value of implementing Asimov's Laws of Robotics as a future general framework that humans should obey. Asimov formulated laws to make explicit the safeguards of the robots in his stories: (1) A robot may not injure or harm a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm; (2) A robot must obey the orders given to it by human b
Purpose of review Breathlessness is a common, distressing and limiting symptom in people with advanced disease, but is challenging to assess as the symptom intensity depends on the level of exertion (symptom stimulus) during the assessment. This review outlines how to use recently developed normative reference equations to evaluate breathlessness responses, accounting for level of exertion, for va
A naturalistic view should make us appreciate the rich possibilities of nature. This naturalistic point of departure, as formulated by Willem B. Drees, invites reflection on the relationship between nature and spirituality. Today, the concept of sustainability occupies a key role in what has come to be the greatest challenge ever that humankind has faced together at the same moment in history. Usu
The construction sector needs to transition toward using bio-based building materials in order to reduce its negative environmental impact. However, it is unclear how exactly such a bio-based future will look like, with different stakeholders in different geographical contexts having different visions of the sector’s future. Based on an extensive collection of expert interviews with stakeholders f
Purpose: The pin fin is applied into a Lamilloy cooling structure which is broadly used in the leading edge region of the modern gas turbine vane. The purpose of this paper is to investigate effects of the layout, diameter and shape of pin fins on the flow structure and heat transfer characteristics in a newly improved Lamilloy structure at the leading edge region of a turbine vane.
