As time is moving forward, the world is becoming more dependent on Internet of Things (IoT) devices. The vision for the future involves IoT devices participating in various aspects of our daily lives, including sensing, controlling, and communicating. Such a future requires a significant number of IoT devices, which raises questions regarding sustainability in terms of battery waste. One promising
Detection of tool wear is critical in optimizing tool change strategies and cutting parameter selection to influence productivity, cost, and quality in metal cutting. Nonetheless, current practices for tool wear detection majorly depend on manual, inconsistent, and time-consuming visual inspection by operators. Tool wear detection has the potential to greatly benefit from recent advances in artifi
The gig economy has expanded rapidly across the globe, and has become an increasingly influential feature of modern labour markets. The flexibility and autonomy offered by gig work coupled with the ability to earn a steady income are recognised benefits by many workers on digital platforms. These benefits can work synergistically with entrepreneurship, which is often characterised by uncertain tim
To satisfy the increased demand for transportation in Sweden the new high-speed railroad line is expected to be finished in 2035. The railroad is expected to connect the three major cities Stockholm, Malmö and Gothenburg with a top speed of 350 km/h. In this report the cost of on-board personnel and energy is investigated on the Lund – Stockholm stretch for speeds up to 420 km/h. The cost of perso
Background: Sustained attention, which is essential for any cognitively planned activity, is very important for everyday life. White noise is typically thought of as a distractor for one’s attention that may be detrimental to cognitive performance. However, recent studies have some counterintuitive findings, indicating proper white noise can improve attention and cognitive performance. In addition
Over a 15-year period, mobile phones have evolved from providing one single feature - the mobile voice call - to multi-featured multi-media communication and entertainment devices. Customer value has been added through successive integration of features previously conveyed by dedicated devices, as clock, timer, camera, media player, radio, etc. This continued integration strategy now poses several
When installing new research equipment at the synchrotron research laboratory MAX IV, a final positional accuracy of tens of microns is usually needed. To obtain that accuracy, initial reference points must be placed within 2 mm from the nominal target points in CAD, in a process referred to as bluelining. It is currently a manual process where points from a virtual environment are transferred to
In recent years, researchers worldwide have become increasingly interested in the phenomenon of code-switching in the multilingual classroom. The paper aims to try to understand when and why teachers in Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) schools code-switch in their classrooms. It analyses the methods and reasons for teachers’ code-switching in the SFI classroom. A case study was conducted by means of a
Kevin Roberts has extended the comprehension of strong consumer brands to a higher level where loyalty beyond reason is established. He calls this new status Lovemarks. As the concept of Lovemark has only been applied in B2C markets, this thesis is directed to find out the applicability of Lovemarks in B2B context. In order to fulfill the research purpose, three main questions are answered based o
En viktig princip i svensk företagsbeskattning är den evigt rullande kvittningsrätten. Den innebär att ett företag som får ett underskott ett beskattningsår kan då spara det och kvitta det mot framtida vinster i samma verksamhet. I Inkomstskattelagens 40 kap finns bestämmelser som begränsar avdragsrätten för underskott. Begränsningarna blir tillämpliga när det sker en ägarförändring för underskottAn important principle in swedish tax law is the possibility to equalize loss by saving deficits from one fiscal year and use it to set off against future profits. In the 40th chapter of the swedish income tax act there are limitations for using the accumulated losses. When there has been an ownership change in the company with the deficits, the limitations apply. If the ownership change means tha
Backround An endothelial barrier for the insulin transport from the circulation to the target tissues of insulin has previously been suggested to contribute to insulin resistance. The interstitial insulin concentration (I-insulin) and insulin kinetics following a mixed meal have, however, previously not been characterized in human adipose tissue. Subjects and methods Eight nondiabetic first-degree
The review highlights the new sources for the understanding of the shifting factors that have shaped the establishment and further development of the psychology of religion internationally.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kunskapsarbete framställs ofta som något som präglas av dolskhet eller oklarhet: produkten som säljs är oklar, resultatet är oklart och även själva arbetsprocesserna framställs ofta som oklara. Detta påverkar i sin tur den styrning som man kan förvänta sig i kunskapsintensiv verksamhet: en styrning som ofta handlar om personalen mer än om arbetet. I denna studie problemKnowledge work is often portrayed as hidden or ambiguous: an ambiguous product is sold, ambiguous results are delivered, and work processes are ambiguous. This in turn affects the type of management expected in knowledge-intensive organisations, where emphasis is on managing people rather than work. In this study, the organisation of knowledge work is discussed and problematized through analysis o
The combination of features from the public and private sectors in jointly owned companies imposes challenges to the governance and control mechanisms of these organisations, which have been criticised for lacking accountability. Where there is fragmented ownership, the interests of different owners need to be coordinated. The aim of this article is to consider how such companies can be governed i
