Detta kapitel rör sig i spänningsfältet mellan rättssociologi och fysisk planering i syfte att visa på hur den senare kunde utvecklas genom bidrag från den förras vidgade förståelse för och av rätten. Analysen, som grundas på material från empiriska studier av utbyggnaden av 3G-systemet och av vindkraften, fokuserar rättens roll i planeringen ur tre perspektiv som är vanliga i rättssociologisk for
Studien undersöker några engagerade medborgares politiska kommunikation i Trelleborgs kommun. Vilken betydelse och roll kan sådana utbrott av medborgerligt engagemang ha? Syftet med studien är att undersöka och beskriva kommunikationens form och innehåll för att kunna föra ett resonemang kring medborgarnas och det nybildade partiets betydelse i en övergripande demokrati-och offentlighetsdiskussion

For extremely large telescopes, there is strong need for thin deformable mirrors in the 3-4 m class. So far, feasibility of such mirrors has not been demonstrated. Extrapolation from existing techniques suggests that the mirrors could be highly expensive. We give a progress report on a study of an approach for construction of large deformable mirrors with a moderate cost. We have developed low-cos
Abstract—Resource management in IT–enterprises gain more and more attention due to high operation costs. For instance, web sites are subject to very changing traffic–loads over the year, over the day, or even over the minute. Online adaption to the changing environment is one way to reduce losses in the operation. Control systems based on feedback provide methods for such adaption, but is in natur
Popular Abstract in Swedish Många djur och växter har någon form av permanent försvar mot angrepp, t ex taggar och utskott. Andra försvarar sig inte alls utan satsar istället på att föröka sig så fort som möjligt. Den kanske mest sofistikerade strategin har de djur och växter som väljer att försvara sig enbart vid behov, s k predator-inducerade försvar. Predator-inducerade försvar är särskilt intrIn this thesis, I have investigated factors (cues, benefits, and costs) affecting the evolution of an inducible morphological defence in crucian carp (Carassius carassius). Inducible defences are favoured over permanent defences when prey have reliable cues to detect predators, when defences are effective but costly, and when predation pressure is variable and unpredictable, but sometimes s

The data being collected and digital services require a place to be accessed and sold, thus setting the demand for a new kind of marketplace; an online IoT focused marketplace. The large EU supported open source platform for Smart Solutions, FIWARE, has created such a marketplace, namely the Busi
The ongoing refugee crisis has divided the European Union. While some states shelter hundreds of thousands of refugees, others only grant asylum to a handful. This phenomenon is creating a demographic rift inside the union and is also causing internal quarrels over joint responsibility, which possibly could undermine the existence of the organization. In this thesis we search for the potential cau

The EU is accused of having a democratic deficit and one of the reasons for that is the low number of turnouts in democratic elections and referendums. Voter turnout is oneof democracy’s most important indicators of health as it shows to whatextent voters practice their democratic right in a representative democracy. Voter participation is thus an accept of the rules of the representative democrac
