Conclusions: Digitalization is a process that will continue to affect management control systems at the case company. All five clusters of the theoretical framework are affected by digitalization which points to the extension of the framework with consideration of information technology. Business partnering leads to added value, better use of time and higher quality and transparency. The case comp
Den Europeiska Unionen utgör ett överstatligt samarbete mellan medlemsstaterna och dess viktigaste mål är en konkurrenskraftig inre marknad. Konkurrensrätten utgör ett vitalt verktyg för EU:s upprätthållande av konkurrensen på marknaden och genomdrivs huvudsakligen av Kommissionen. Privata sanktionsmedel, särskilt konkurrensskadetalan, har emellertid fått ökad betydelse. Denna utveckling har resulThe European Union is a supranational cooperation between its Member States, and its main objective is a highly competitive internal market. Competition law is a vital tool in the protection of competition on the market. It is mainly enforced by the Commission. However, private enforcement through competition damages actions, has become increasingly important. This development has resulted in a Di
Our entire society relies on technologies to function. Critical infrastructure like: water, power, transportation and communication systems amongst other things are technologies connected to the cyberspace. The cyber security is therefore to be considered a matter of national security, hence it also needs to be handle like a national security matter. Many states has come to the conclusion that pub
Right-wing terrorism poses an increasing threat to the safety of people all around the world. This thesis examines terrorist target selection processes in right-wing terrorism with the aim of reaching a deeper understanding on how terrorists operate. In order to do so, I have designed this study as a comparative case study, in which three cases of right-wing terrorism have been analysed. Theoretic
Being the largest bilateral donor for reproductive health assistance, USAID has played a significant role in shaping the global reproductive governance. This thesis is therefore interested in how USAID represents the issue of reproductive health in its development policies. The thesis is designed as a qualitative single case study, analysing USAID’s policy documents about reproductive health from
The premise of this thesis was to explore United Nations construction of gender in their Guidance on gender and inclusive mediation strategies. The Guidance, published in 2017, stem from United Nations Security Council’s Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security in 2000, which stressed the importance of including women in peace processes. Through Lazar’s feminist critical discourse analysis, th
Recording of medical procedures makes it possible for medical staff to review their work, learn from the mistakes and produce material for education. Medical videos tend to be long, which has an impact on usability and raises issues concerning memory storage. The aim of this master thesis is to make the material more user-friendly with an intelligent toolbox based on machine learning and image an
By the year 2030, the world will need 50% more food, 45% more energy and 30% more water. This growth in demand will increase pressure on our natural resources. Ingenuitive and adaptive thinking will therefore be required in the ways we build our cities. Finland, with its abundance of natural resources: its forest, its lakes and its aquatic resources, as well as its expertise in sustainable resourc
This case is about Starbucks acquisition of Teavana and the events that followed.
In order to achieve sustainable development, there is perhaps not one strategy more often used in contemporary urban planning than density. Many cities have a dedicated densification strategy of their inner city, such as HafenCity in Hamburg or Älvstaden in Gothenburg. However, one critique of contemporary architecture is how new urban developments are becoming generic; more and more similar to ea
Machine learning projects are often constrained by data that is messy, scarce, sensitive or costly to produce. These are issues which could be mitigated by synthetic data. This thesis tries to improve Swedish license plate localization in images by synthesizing images through superimposition, a process that produces data cheaply and in abundance. A generative process algorithmically creates imag
In this report, we model the mechanical properties and fracture behavior of SiC nanowires with different polytypes using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The mechanical properties investigated are the Young’s modulus, the maximum tensile stress and the fracture strain. The three polytype tested are SiC (3C), (2H) and (4H). Tensile tests are performed on bulk and nanowire samples using three com
In this project, the cooling and solidification processes for a Valmet Foundry product have been simulated in order to shorten the cooling time. The study has also been done in cooperation with RISE Swecast in Jönköping, as a part of finding ways to make casting procedures more energy efficient. Another scope of the study is to evaluate how well COMSOL Multiphysics can be used to simulate these ty
Title: The importance of creating a credible brand in the new digital world of social media influencer marketing.

The modernisation of the Global South is a complex and often overwhelming task. However, one of the most cross-cutting issues is often overlooked. The arena of energy poverty – specifically electric poverty in rural areas and how state policies tackle this problem - is one that often discussed in the wider development discourse. By answering the questions ‘How is the problem of access to electrici
This study set out to investigate relations between language and cognition. More specifically, to examine if language fluency had any effects on measures of attention. Eighty participants with varying linguistic fluencies were recruited on Amazon’s Mechanical Turk and completed the study on Qualtrics. Three measures were implemented to gather data: an image-recognition task, a non-verbal scale of

The present perceptual learning study was conducted in an attempt to investigate to which extent naïve listeners’ L1 prosodic background affected their learning performance of a lexical tone language and whether an auditory-image (AI) training paradigm curtailed the online-learning process of lexical tones. Thirty-three Mandarin-naïve Swedish-native listeners (NS listeners) and 33 Mandarin-naïve E
