A search for the direct production of charginos and neutralinos in final states with three electrons or muons and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis is based on 4.7 fb(-1) of root s = 7 TeV proton-proton collision data delivered by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded with the ATLAS detector. Observations are consistent with Standard Model expectations in three signal regions
Purpose: The Swedish primary education consists of public and private schools, where a comprehensive voucher system surrounds them. The different types of organizations present the debate of whether the different school management objectives, create an advantage over the other. Henceforth, principals are responsible to implement such management of the schools. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis

Despite progress over the last decades, East Africa has one of the highest ratios of preventable maternal mortality in the world. This qualitative case study sheds light on Midwife-Led Care (MLC) in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi and Somalia. MLC is a model of care associated with improved health outcomes and enhanced utilization of health systems resources. Nevertheless, the model is not properly integr
Having fun at work has become a popular topic among practitioners and academic writers. Managed fun is the form of workplace fun that “stems from managers” (Plester, Cooper-Thomas & Winquist, 2015, p.381). However, researchers suggest that the ‘dark side’ of fun is to be further investigated as most of the empirical data is focusing on the positive effects of having fun at work (Fleming, 2005;
Vi rör oss ständigt i offentliga rum som på olika sätt är utformade för att påverka oss. Denna studie undersöker om människors känslor, syn på välbefinnande och syn på meningen med livet påverkas av att befinna sig i olika rum, i detta fall en kyrka (N=51) och ett köpcenter (N=51). Två verktyg, semantiska mått och Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) används för att undersöka om det finnsWe are constantly moving between environments that are designed to affect us in one way or another. The purpose of this study is to investigate if the room has an influence on people's feelings, and their views on well-being and meaning of life. In a randomised experiment, the study explores whether there is a measurable difference in the participants’ feelings and thoughts in a church (n=51)
In light of the syllabus concerning film and video game music in the music subject at Swedish compulsory school level, an interview study was conducted. The purpose of the study was to investigate how five active music teachers in compulsory school use music from films and video games in the classroom to teach about music as a meaning-making expressive form. Five semi-structured interviews were co
As cloud service providers becomes more prevalent, so does questions related to cost efficiency of hosted resources. Payment models for cloud hosted resources tend to be either subscription based or pay-as-you-go for computing resources, in this case for compound metrics of CPU, Data IO and Log IO. In order to find necessary resource provisioning, previous methods have tended towards observing the
The thesis aims at supplementing a critique of the existing international instruments, regional responses and national legislation of the Arctic related to marine environmental protection. With this aim in view, the thesis satisfies its objective by proposing a Bipartite “Arctic Council” acting as a conglomeration of the Arctic States and the Flag States with a hybrid “Arctic treaty”, which is an
Background: Patients have an estimated mortality of 15–20% within the first year following myocardial infarction and one in four patients who survive myocardial infarction will develop heart failure, severely reducing quality of life and increasing the risk of long-term mortality. We aimed to establish the accuracy of an artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm in predicting 1-year mortality and
A sports video analysis application was developed by Spiideo for mobile devices. It presents recordings from practices and competitive games for game-play analysis. Available tools, such as on-screen drawings, require a robust background foreground segmentation. The currently used segmentation method have difficulties to master the shifting conditions in weather, shadows and shirt colors. The pu
Purpose: There are two research purposes for this paper. The first purpose is to provide a comprehensive overview of the available performance measurement systems. The second purpose is to analyse which performance measurement systems, or a combination of performance measurement systems are the most suitable for multinational professional service firms. Methodology: This paper uses a qualitative
Studiens fokus är på skogsbränderna i Sverige år 2018, då tio gånger mer markyta påverkades av bränder än genomsnittet under föregående år. Syftet med studien är att undersöka en bred forskningsfråga: har vägar en påverkan på storleken hos den brända ytan i en löpeld? Studien bygger på tidigare forskning om hur spridningen av löpeld påverkas av vägar. Bland olika statistiska metoder valdes slutligThis study focuses on the Swedish wildfire season of 2018, when the country incurred ten times more than the average burnt area that occurred in previous years. The study aims to address a broad research question: Do roads influence the size of the burned area? This study fills the gap in research on the effects of roads in the spatial patterns of wildfires. Moreover, the research hopes to include
The formation of industry standards for environmental issues and corporate social responsibility is gaining acceptance but the number of successfully implemented programs are few. On an individual level companies have for some time applied company standards or codes of conduct. But on a collective level cooperation seems much more difficult. Although from an economic point of view there are clear
This thesis is inspired by the recent development within the Community concerning the standing of private parties to claims damages for harm caused by a breach of the EC antitrust rules. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) declared, in the cases of Courage and Manfredi, that this is a right deriving from the Treaty. In the wake of this change, the Commission has issued a Green Paper followed by a
Problemformulering: I och med avregleringen av elmarknaden konkurrensutsattes elleverantörernas verksamhet. Priserna pressades och elleverantörerna började ägna sig åt kringtjänster för att anpassa sig till marknaden. För att förbli kundernas val samt för att locka till sig nya kunder tvingas företagen att bevisa sin lämplighet som leverantör, vilket är svårt på en mogen marknad med en homogen kär
Studies indicate that organizations are having problems to deliver IT services that correspond with the business processes. These problems are mainly a result of misalignments between business- and IT processes where IT processes have to be centralized, instead of separated from organizations. In this study we address the issue of misalignments between business- and IT processes by describing how
På vilka värderingar och grundläggande teorier baserar sig vårt rättsystem och vad är lagens bindande kraft? Hur kan dessa teorier förklara klyftan mellan moraliska regler och lagregler? Denna uppsats består av tre delar. De två första delarna [Kap. 2 och 3] är mer deskriptiva och består dels av ett kapitel om illegal fildelning, dels av en analys av skandinavisk rättsrealism, framför allt VilhelThe general moral attitude is, to consider copyright infringements on the Internet as a socially acceptable behaviour. While the record industry and judicial system have both monetary and other reasons to fight illegal file sharing, both the technological and the moral development are combating these efforts. The legal realism as represented by Vilhelm Lundstedt is based on the idea that the lega
Landing from a jump is related to predictive sensorimotor control. Frontal, central and parietal brain areas are known to play a role in this process based on online sensory feedback. This can be measured by EEG. However, there is only limited knowledge about brain activity during predictive preparation for drop landings (DL). The purpose is to demonstrate changes in brain activity in preparation
