Good health is of utmost importance to individuals and economic growth. Nevertheless, inequalities concerning health services and conditions are observed in developed as well as developing countries. Often such disparities are related to ethnicity, with indigenous populations exhibiting lower health performance. Bolivia features a large indigenous population, which still experiences disadvantages

The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the current field of research on crisis management within higher education. More precisely, this thesis aims to increase the understanding of the scope and dimensions to be considered by universities when preparing and planning for a potential crisis. A qualitative study with abductive reasoning has been conducted to fulfill the purpose of this t

Bakgrund: Röntgensjuksköterskan arbetar i en högteknologisk miljö där många patienter upplever oro. Det kan i många fall bero på bristande kommunikation. En väl fungerande kommunikation kan leda till reducerad oro hos patienten vilket ger goda förutsättningar för att få en optimal undersökning. Därför är det viktigt att belysa betydelsen av kommunikation i mötet med patienten. Syfte: Syftet var at

Pets, instruments, a source of food, objects of wonder - animals are still considered inferior beings because of their inability to speak. Animal rights philosophers, such as Peter Singer, focus on the capacity of animals to suffer, in order that animals are given more rights. However, the animals in the Mary Poppins books fight for their own rights, some of them having the capacity to speak. The

This bachelor thesis was conducted by two students from Lunds University at ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems in Landskrona, a company that develops and produces automatic entrance doors. We focused on their High performance product which is a high-speed roll-up door. The background for the thesis was that ASSA ABLOY had acquired several companies in different parts of the world and therefore also had d

Urval av testfall är en viktig del av processen för kvalitetssäkring i ett projekt. Eftersom tid och resurser är begränsade behöver testfallen prioriteras för att upprätthålla effektivitet och för att möta deadlines. Detta examensarbete utforskar möjligheten att förbättra utvecklingsprocessen på Axis Communications genom att delvis automatisera utväljandet av testfall. I detta examensarbete har enTest case selection is an important part of the quality assurance process in a software project. Since time and resources are limited, test cases have to be prioritized in order to maintain efficiency and meet deadlines. This thesis researches the possibility of improving the development process at Axis Communications by partly automating the test case selections. In this thesis, an algorithm call

Vi presenterar en simulator-applikation där användarna kan lära sig att flyga drönare. Tack vare en innovativ användning av augmented reality (AR) skapas en verklighetstrogen flygupplevelse. De första flygsimulatorerna började dyka upp i början av 1900-talet och har sedan dess utvecklats till en central del av nästan all flygutbildning. Modern teknologi gör att simulatorerna kan utformas på ett sThis thesis describes the design and development of a UAV simulator application prototype, which uses augmented reality technology and runs on a tablet device. The purpose of the application is to act as a complementary educational tool for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) pilots in training. The field of commercial unmanned aviation is rapidly growing, and with it the need for structured and standar

Var på skjutvapen finns det mest DNA och hur hamnar det där? Mer än 500 personer världen över dör varje dag av vapenvåld och användandet av vapen i brott har ökat markant de senaste åren. Genom att lokalisera DNA-spår på brottsplatser och tillhyggen som har använts, exempelvis skjutvapen, är det möjligt att identifiera gärningsmannen. Väldigt lite är dock känt om var på skjutvapen man kan hitta More than 500 people die every day from gun violence worldwide. DNA traces may enable the identification of the shooter, but there is limited knowledge concerning where on firearms DNA can be found and how it got there. This project aimed to answer these questions as well as how the swab types and addition of detergents affect the DNA recovery. Three swab types were examined (cotton, nylon flocke

Proteases are a group of enzymes that are involved in breaking down larger proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and they are used in various applications. In this project, the potential of budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as host for the construction of protease libraries is evaluated. Three model proteases of bacterial origin are used to evaluate transformation efficien

This research investigates the subject of Data Democratization (DD), the effect it has on fact-based decision-making, and how users perceive this within the organization. DD is a fairly new initiative, empowering more employees with increased access to data to improve their use of it and to a greater extent be able to make decisions based on data. The idea for this paper originated from the lack o

This paper examines literature on policies used to compensate households for rising energy costs, including in-kind transfers, cash transfers and VAT reductions. It also shows how targeted transfers stand against universal transfers, and how the policy measures affect energy consumption. The study shows that the differences between cash transfers and in-kind transfers are generally small, but that

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) is progressing to take over decision making in different industries, the threat that comes with the use of these systems is also increasing. One major threat is the risk of these systems acting biased, causing discrimination to parts of the population. To tackle the risk of AI systems acting biased it is important to understand how these biases originate in the firs

Då användaren idag är den svagaste länken inom informationssäkerhet och den svaga punkten kopplat till utbildningen inom detta är bristande engagemang och motivation hos användaren. Gamification riktar sig mot att stärka just detta och är därför ett värdefullt verktyg. Men hur gamification verkligen används inom information security awareness utbildning är oklart. Därför har denna studie genomfört

5G NR är den senaste generationen mobilnät och är efterföljaren till Fourth Generation (4G) Long-Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A). I mobilnäten kan användare koppla upp sig mot basstationer med sina enheter som kan vara en mobiltelefon eller dator. Basstationerna består av antenner som kan både skicka och ta emot information samt en radioenhet som hanterar trafik till och från stationen. Eftersom aAs the latest generation of wireless access technology called Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) evolves, computational efficiency is key to keep low cost and flexible deployments for vendors. Understanding how the Digital Signal Processing (DSP) load behaves in the digital units is one aspect to enable this efficiency. This thesis investigates how the DSP load in the base station behaves for a

I en globaliserad värld har identitet och tillhörighet kommit att bli något som människor allt mer reflekterar över. Andra generationens invandrare är en grupp individer som ofta uppmärksammas inneha en gränsöverskridande etnisk tillhörighet, vilket leder till en transnationell identitet. Denna studie syftar till att söka förståelse för hur denna positionering påverkar transnationella individer i

The number of remote teams has increased in recent years and this upward trend may persist. The growth is partly enabled by advancements in Information and Communication Technolo-gy (ICT) and globalization. Although organizations benefit from certain advantages that re-mote teams introduce, inadequate communication amongst remote team members can lead to project failures. Since technology has an i
