Kvantdatorer har fått mycket fokus i media de senaste åren på grund av sin potentiella förmåga att lösa problem som är för tidskrävande för att låta sig lösas på klassiska datorer. Kvantdatorer skiljer sig i grunden från dagens datorer, genom att bygga på gåtfulla kvantmekaniska egenskaper. En sådan är kvantsuperposition, som innebär att en partikel kan vara i flera kvanttillstånd samtidigt. AntagQuantum annealing provides a promising avenue for obtaining good approximate solutions to difficult optimization problems. Protein folding represents one such problem. For testing novel algorithms and technologies, simplified lattice models are well suited, as they represent considerable computational challenges despite their simplicity. One such model is the HP model, where the protein is represe

FN:s kommitté för mänskliga rättigheter har som ansvar att granska medlemsländernas efterlevnad av Konventionen om medborgerliga och politiska rättigheter och att lämna allmänna kommentarer om konventionen. I följande uppsats görs en textanalys på en av dessa kommentarer, vilken kommenterar Artikel 7 inom konventionen. Artikel 7 behandlar förbudet mot tortyr och annan grym, omänsklig eller förnedr

Macroeconomic conditions heavily influence financial markets, and the leading corpus of theory in the field lays out some general principles observed by investors and asset managers alike. However, while the theory is sound, it is hard to measure how much effect these conditions have. To better understand this scenario, this study uses a novel technique that combines traditional causal inference w

The aim of this study is to discuss the hiv-related information behavior of University students. Since the AIDS epidemic of the 1980's there has been a shift in the general discourse surrounding HIV, where panic has changed to silence. The general public's lack of knowledge and correct and current information on the topic has however remained a problem, and even though the general attitude

Syfte med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur långt arbetsgivarens ansvar sträcker sig när det kommer till arbetsanpassning inom ramen för rehabilitering. Med andra ord är ändamålet att få en djupare förståelse för vilka skyldigheter gällande rehabilitering arbetsgivaren har avseende arbetsanpassning. Därmed följer även vad som inte går att kräva av en arbetsgivare, inom området för arbetsanpassninThe purpose of this essay is to examine how far the employer’s responsibilities stretch when it comes to work adaptation in terms of rehabilitation. The ambition is, in other words, to obtain a deeper understanding for which responsibilities concerning rehabilitation the employer has regarding work adaptation. This includes researching what can not be required of an employer in the field of work a

In 2015, all nations in the UN accepted the Sustainability Development Goals (SDG). Using indicators presented in the Kolada database, this thesis aims to analyze how the 290 municipalities in Sweden perform on the different goals. What factors affect how well the municipalities reach the goals, and how are the different dimensions of sustainability – social, economic and ecological – interconnect

Syftet med denna explorativa tvärsnittsstudie var att undersöka huruvida ålderism skiljer sig mellan rekryterare och icke-rekryterare samt undersöka om det finns en korrelation mellan olika maktmotiv, personlighetsdrag samt arbetsmotivation och negativa attityder mot äldre. Data insamlades genom en enkät med totalt 123 respondenter av vilka 44 arbetade med rekrytering. Respondenterna rekryterades The purpose of this exploratory cross-sectional study was to examine whether ageism differs between recruiters and non-recruiters and to investigate if there exists a correlation between different power motives, personality traits and workmotivation and negative attitudes towards the elderly. The data was collected through a questionnaire with a total of 123 respondents of which 44 worked with rec

Kvantifiering av motoriskt beteende hos råttor i fri rörelse Cirka 10 miljoner människor världen över lever med Parkinsons sjukdom och cirka 40 % av världens befolkning lever med långvarig smärta. Den här avhandlingen handlar om att implementera ett system för att hjälpa till att utvärdera behandlingar för dessa tillstånd, såsom djup hjärnstimulering (DBS). System som används för att förbättra DSystems evaluating potential treatment methods for Parkinson’s disease and chronic pain conditions, using rodent experimental models, are highly needed. Currently used systems are aiming to evaluate these kinds of treatment methods by analyzing the animal’s motor behavior. These systems either generate binary data or multifaceted data for when the rodent is spatially limited or data for when the r

The concept of this research is that by applying the proposed method, the trajectory of drift into failure can be made visible. The method itself consists of two sequential steps. For research purposes a third step is added. The first step is constructing a phased narrative, consisting of all the changes that have taken place within a particular organisational process subject to research. What has

Den här studien undersöker en grupp musikelevers improvisatoriska val över dominantackord som leder till tonika i improvisationer över II V I-progressioner i dur. Studiens fokusområde motiveras av den höga andel II V I-progressioner som används som musikaliska byggstenar i genrer där improvisation förekommer i hög grad. Även om det inte ligger inom räckhåll för den här studien att undersöka kausalThis study focuses on a group of music students’ improvisational choices over the Vchord leading to the I-chord when improvising over major II V I chord progressions. The raison d'etre for this study is the high number of II V I-progressions being used as musical building blocks in genres that have improvisation as an integral part. Although it was not within the scope of this study to establi

Determining whether the information read online is credible or not has become a crucial part of the process of consuming new information. With technology and the internet becoming all more advanced and developing continuously, the question regarding the influence of an argument’s strength on information credibility arose. The aim of this study was to contribute to the field of strategic communicat

The purpose of this paper is to critically examine how gender labelling leadership as female is perceived by women in leadership positions. We aim to establish a dialogue about this phenomenon in relation to women themselves to demonstrate that women play an integral role in leadership, not only secondarily but primarily - challenging the traditional discourse of leadership.
