Under 1900-talet förändrades livsvillkoren för personer med intellektuella funktionsnedsättningar radikalt i Sverige. Från vårdhemmens institutionslika boendeformer, via normaliseringsprocessen och nya lagstiftningar, till de grupp- och servicebostäder vi har idag. Trots den svenska handikappolitikens normaliseringstankar om möjligheten att ”leva som andra” skiljer sig dessa personers vardagsliv f

Various strategies may be used to promote biodiversity conservation on private land and support conservation at the landscape level. Brazil has had a law that addresses this issue to some extent since 1934. It is called Forest Code (FC), and has been revised twice, in 1965 and 2012. One of the reasons that led to its most recent revision was insufficient compliance among landowners. Another argume

This thesis treats the problem of positioning in WiFi networks and proposes a solution using hidden Markov models and particle lters based on sequential importance sampling with resampling. Hidden Markov models prove to be a powerful framework for this type of problem exhibiting both an intuitive and adaptive model structure. One of the diculties encountered when ltering this model is that it is i

Malmö har som många andra städer behövt förändra sig när industrierna har flyttat från staden. Stadsomvandlingen från industristad till något nytt brukar innebära en upprustning av innerstaden och uppförandet av profilbyggnader (till exempel Turning Torso). Det har uppstått en konkurrens mellan städer i västvärlden om invånare (rätt sorts invånare), företagsetableringar, turister och besökare. Den

I uppsatsen utgår jag från några av de termer och tankar som används vid kreativitetsutveckling för organisationer och individer, för att undersöka eventuella paralleller till de problem som kan uppstå under skrivprocessen. Resultatet visar på stora likheter med den skrivandes vardag och de negativa känslor som dyker upp när skribenten drabbas av skrivkramp. Genom att illustrera med exempel från e
