The process of firms entering and exiting the market has since Schumpeter’s introduction of the concept of creative destruction been a subject of interest for economists aiming to determine what drives economic growth. However, limited availability of data has long been a hindrance to such ambitions and it is not until recent decades that empirical studies on the role of firm dynamics for economic
This paper conducts an empirical study on the relationship between the emerging financial market of China and the developed market of the US, both during and after the 2007-2009 financial crisis. Stock indices from the two countries are analysed to examine whether there exist any comovements between the different equity markets. Econometric time series testing of weekly stock values indicate that
This thesis is partly about the phenomenon of how sound can be perceived differently in a comparison between the perceived sound and the experience of the sound, but also about the importance of ear training generally for music making. In a similar way we use language to think, musicians can think the music silently in advance. In English, the term audiation has been used to describe this phenomen
Today communication through an interpreter at authorities is a common phenomenon in Sweden because there are people living in the country who do not understand or speak the Swedish language. This paper focuses on the use of interpreters in the judiciary and how the interpreter misses in this occupation may threaten the rule of law. The purpose of this paper is to investigate if the current interpr
High-Level Synthesis(HLS) is a design methodology that enables designers to implement hardware from high-level coding languages, such as C, C++, or System C. It provides designers with the ability to convey their design at a higher level of abstraction, which allows more emphasis on an algorithm and functional aspects of design instead on low-level hardware details. As precise control of signal ti
This master thesis is written at Tetra Pak, Carton Value - 8&19 Line engineering and the Centre of Mathematical Statistics in Lund. There is a growing interest in utilizing multivariate statistical techniques for condition based monitoring of industrial processes. This master thesis is a prestudy into the application of four such well-established multivariate tests for the analysis of Tetra Pa
This paper investigates whether the shape of a probability distribution of a given problem has any predictable effect on the shape of the distribution of people's associated irrational choices. Focus is especially on the skewness of distributions. Based on previous research in psychology and behavioral economics, a theory of the causes of skewness of choice distributions is presented. Hypothes
Purpose: The study aims to develop Amit & Zott (2014) framework that links the two perspectives the business model and dynamic capability approach. Scientific Method: A quantitative case study based on pattern matching. The study was made built through a cross-sectional design and has a deductive approach. Primary data was collected through semi-structures interviews. Secondary data was colle
This thesis investigates the TRIPS-agreement signed by all members of the World Trade Organization and how it has affected the price and availability on medicines, and in extension its overall effect on health. This was investigated by conducting four case studies of India, Thailand, South Africa and Brazil. It was found that prices had been affected by TRIPS due to the extension of patent term in
Recently we have called for the broadening of the theoretical base in order to understand the social and other contexts of material culture items such as pottery (Pikirayi and Llndahl, 2013). The challenges encountered by archaeologists remain the huge ceramic assemblages, which are however, central in defining group identities in southern African Iron Age studies. but whose analyses Is always r
Cows produce saliva in very large quantities to lubricate and facilitate food processing. Estimates indicate an amount of 50–150 L per day. Human saliva has previously been found to contain numerous antibacterial components, such as lysozyme, histatins, members of the S-100 family and lactoferrin, to limit pathogen colonization. Cows depend on a complex microbial community in their digestive syste
AbstractAim: This study sought to investigate the hypothesis that children dying outside a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after PICU discharge have a limitation of medical treatment (LOMT) order in place, limiting PICU readmission at the time of death.Methods: A cohort was identified of all children (n=3890; 5019 admissions) treated in a PICU in Sweden over 3 consecutive years between Januar

OBJECTIVE: to investigate the factors that influence the experience of mothers and fathers when they have chosen to return home, earlier than is the normal routine, following the birth of their baby. DESIGN: a qualitative study, using open interviews, was undertaken. The text of the transcripts was coded and categorised according to the grounded theory method using constant comparative analysis. S
It is generally accepted that there were well-established relationships between castles and commerce in medieval Sweden. However, to date, the complexities of those relationships have arguably not been fully explored. Through focusing on archaeological evidence from three very different examples, Stockholm, Borgholm and Piksborg, this paper seeks to illustrate the variety of often intimate and com
