Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka samspelet mellan den föreslagna förordningen om öppen finans (FiDA) från 2023 och EU:s dataskyddsbestämmelser, särskilt dataskyddsförordningen (GDPR). Enligt EU-kommissionens strategi för digital finans från 2020 är främjandet av datadriven finansiering en prioritet. I takt med att mängden data och digital teknikens påverkan på ekonomin ökar, blir det alltThe purpose of this thesis is to examine the interaction between the proposed Financial Data Access (FiDA) regulation from 2023 and the EU's data protection regulations, particularly the General Data Protection regulation (GDPR). According to the EU Commission's digital finance strategy from 2020, promoting data-driven finance is a priority. As the amount of data and the impact of digital

In this thesis, the interests behind AI development and copyright have been investigated. Furthermore, it has also examined how Articles 3 and 4 of the DSM Directive balance these interests. During the thesis, it has become clear that AI has many possibilities and that the interest in continued development encompasses a wide scope. When an AI is developed, it may need to be trained with a dataset

I dagens samhälle är hållbar utveckling av största vikt, och Sverige arbetar aktivt för att uppnå målen i Agenda 2030. Bland annat inom byggbranschen är det nödvändigt att vara sparsam med resurser och minska utsläppen av växthusgaser (Co2). Under senare tid har det byggts ett stort antal bostäder i Sverige men behovet är fortsatt stort (även om branschen just nu är inne i en lågkonjunktur). Vi viDo we build better buildings with today’s requirements? This work concerns a comparative study between a political investment in apartment buildings for families with many children [Barnrikehus] from the 1930s and 1940s and newly produced apartment buildings with a focus on daylight and energy performance. The study employs various methods, including the comparative method, literature search, arc

Thermoacoustic mixing can be a method of enhancing mixing in micro channels by utilizing temperature differences in fluids and applying an acoustic field. The main goal of the project was to build a functional thermal setup, to investigate the significance of input parameters, and to find the optimal parameters in order to achieve the best mixing enhancement. The project was executed at the depart

Metod: Sökningar i databaserna CINAHL och PsycINFO genomfördes och tolv studier analyserades därefter med integrera

Sammanfattning: Mantelsignaturen HIMU ( High μ/ High U/Pb) som får sitt namn från dess höga 238U/204Pb innehåll är en av normalt fyra mantelsignaturer som är funnet på flera oceaniska basaltöar över världen så som St Helena. Ursprunget av detta material är okänt men flera hypoteser kring dess bildande finns, där de flesta verkar ha subdukterande oceanskorpa med i bildningsprocessen. Denna litteratAbstract:The mantle signature HIMU (High μ / High U/Pb) which gets its name from its high 238U/204Pb ratios is one of four mantelsignatures which is found on several oceanic basalt islands around the world such as St Helena. There are also several hypotheses about the origin of this HIMU material where most have subducted oceanic plates as part of the formation. The purpose of this literature anal

A distinguishing component of the mortgage bond market in Denmark is the option to prepay a loan before its maturity date. From the debtors perspective, this is often done with the purpose of refinancing to a lower lending rate. Thus, interest rate modelling becomes a natural part of the pricing process of Danish callable mortgage bonds. Today, yield curves are modelled and thought of differently

Utsläppen av växthusgaser genom mänskliga aktiviteter, framförallt inom sektorer som energiproduktion, markanvändning, livsstil, och produktion, medför att jordens medeltemperatur fortsätter att öka till ohållbara grader. En viktig del i att återfå kontroll över situationen är att förändra hur vi producerar energi världen över, från fossila bränslen till hållbara och förnybara energikällor. Ett exEmissions of greenhouse gases through human activities, predominantly in sectors such as energy production, land use, lifestyle, and production, are continuing to warm the planet to unsustainable degrees. An important way to regain control of the situation is a worldwide adjustment in the way we produce energy, from fossil fuels to sustainable and renewable energy sources. An example of such a ren
