26. Spatial clustering and industrial competitiveness : Studies in economic geography
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the causes and effects of spatial clustering of similar and related economic activity. The relationship between spatial clustering and industrial competitive-ness is analysed in a series of empirical studies, revolving around four research questions: How useful is an institutional approach in analyses of spatial clustering? Can the link between spatial clustering and industrial performance be empirically validated and measured by quantitative methods? In what sense does spatial clustering promote localised processes of learning and innovation? What role can industrial and regional policies play in promoting the type of localised processes emphasised in spatial clustering research?It proves to be a rather complicated matter to measure the impact of spatial clustering on firm performance.

27. Unsupervised Learning of Morphology: Survey, Model, Algorithm and Experiments
Sammanfattning : This thesis contains work on a specific problem in field of Language Technology. The problem can be described as follows: "Can a computer extract a description of word conjugation in a natural language using only written text in the language?" The problem is often referred to as Unsupervised Learning of Morphology (ULM) and has a wide variety of Language Technology applications, including Machine Translation, Document Categorization and I nformation Retrieval.

28. Sustainable consumption for policymakers: measuring, learning and acting
Sammanfattning : Current patterns and levels of consumption are a key driver of unsustainable resource use and pollution, which contributes to global environmental degradation. Rapid reductions in environmental pressures are required to avoid irreversible loss of fragile ecosystems and social and economic crises. Consumption must become sustainable. LÄS MER
29. On the Road to a Software Profession : Students’ Experiences of Concepts and Thresholds
Sammanfattning : Research has shown that there are gaps in knowledge between newly hired and experienced professionals and that some of these gaps are related to concepts, such as the concepts of object orientation. This problem, and the fact that most computer science majors want to work in the software industry, leads to questions regarding why these gaps exist and how students can be better prepared for their future careers.

30. Lära och leka med flera språk : Socialt samspel i flerspråkig förskola
Sammanfattning : Avhandlingens övergripande syfte är att studera barns sociala samspel med varandra och med vuxna i en flerspråkig förskolekontext. Mer specifikt studeras barnens språkanvändning i lek och i lärarledda aktiviteter, och hur barnen använder andra semiotiska resurser än språk för att åstadkomma deltagande i förskolans olika sammanhang.
