The purpose of this study is to explore the area surrounding computer energy consumption. After reviewing general background on related fields we measured energy consumption among different computers and monitors. Based on the results we constructed a survey aimed at Swedish schools.

When we introduce transaction costs the perfect Black and Scholes hedge, consisting of the underlying stock and a risk free asset, becomes infinitely expensive. By loosening the pure arbitrage argument and only considering the expected transaction costs, one can find an upper bound on the price of an option. In this essay this is done by using a framework presented by Leland (1985) and Boyle and V
Whether executed as full-scale war or acts short of war, acts of aggression have consistently shaped the history of humankind. Acts of aggression would not occur if it were not for the involvement of individuals. The historical development of aggression in international law has seen a shift from a regime solely focusing on the unlawfulness of the action by States, to include the unlawfulness of th
Vid fysisk planering genom upprättande och antagande av planer analyseras hur mark- och vattenområden ska användas i framtiden. Detaljnivå och rättslig status varierar mellan plantyperna, några är rättsligt bindande medan andra är vägledande. I Sverige är makten över markanvändningsplaneringen decentraliserad, kommunerna har huvudansvaret för planeringen. Genom länsstyrelsen bevakas statens intresPhysical planning by establishing and adopting plans enables analysis of future land and water use. The level of detail and legal status varies between the different types of plans; some are legally binding while others are guiding and non-binding. Land use planning in Sweden is decentralized and municipalities carry the main responsibility for planning. Matters of national interest are watched ov
This paper discuses the concept of freedom via a theoretical literary analysis. By starting in footsteps of Isaiah Berlin and his definition of negative and positive freedom this paper demonstrates that there is a problem in this conception of freedom and offers a alternative model of analysis. These problems both internal and external to Berlins theory are clarified and analyzed. By recognizing t
It has been almost a hundred years since the law of adoption was implemented into Swedish law. Since then much has happened and the changes have been many and great. Legal documents as UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child and Convention on protection of children and co-operation in respect of intercountry adoptions have been ratified around the world to guarantee children’s rights. One of th
Skogsskador och skogsdöd är ett växande problem i Europa. "Svarta Triangeln", som ligger i bergsområdet där Tysklands, Tjeckiens och Polens gränser möts, är en av de värst drabbade områdena. I dagsläget saknas kunskap för att kunna förklara skogsskadorna helt och hållet, men markförsurningen i området, som orsakas främst av förbränning av svavelrikt kol i de många kolkraftverken, är trolForest decline is an increasing problem in Europe. "The Black Triangle" area, situated in the mountainous region where the borders of Germany, the Czech Republic and Poland meet, is one of the worst damaged areas. The reasons for the forest dieback are not fully understood, but the soil acidification caused by the burning of sulphur rich coal in the region is considered a major cause. To
Uppsatsen tar sikte på att behandla sak- och associationsrättsliga aspekter inom ramen för en aktietransaktion, i synnerhet fokuseras på dispositioner såsom värdepapperslån (eng. securities lending) och blankning (eng. short selling). Det torde vara mycket svårt att föra en talan avseende att en aktieförvärvare skulle vara i ond tro och att denne därigenom inte gjort ett godtrosförvärv av en aktThe purpose of this paper is to examine a number of property- and corporate law aspects within the framework of a transaction of shares, targeting primarily dispositions such as securities lending and short selling. Since it ought to be difficult to bring a successful claim against a share purchaser, claiming that he was in bad faith while acquiring the shares and thus did not make an acquisitio
Detta examensarbete består av en kritisk komparativ studie av olika modeller för juridiska personers straffansvar i svensk och engelsk rätt. Från tidigt 1800-tal till dags dato går det att skönja tre olika grundmodeller för sådant ansvar: vikarierande straffansvar, identifikationsdoktrinen, samt objektivt straffansvar. Engelsk rätt har i olika tider tillämpat de första två. Sedan ikraftträdandetThis masters’ thesis consists of a critical comparative study of different concepts of corporate criminal liability under Swedish and English law. In the realm of corporate criminal liability, thee main strands of thought can be discerned from the early 19th century onwards: vicarious liability, the identification doctrine and organisational liability. English law has applied the first two conce
This is the resulting rapport from a master thesis in the field of structural analysis, with a focus on earthquake engineering. In this project are pipe supports’ impacts on seismic design analysed. This is done by modelling a building, pipe supports and a pipe system in two different computer softwares. One of them is commonly used for design of pipes at nuclear plants, and the other has applic

The dissertation is meant to evaluate a few of the original purposes of decentralisation pronounced by the national admin
