Desde sua primeira impressão, em Londres, no ano de 1726, Viagens de Gulliver, de Jonathan Swift, tem sido amplamente lida e, conseqüentemente, reimpressa. No entanto, o evidente sucesso editorial do livro não permite concluir que ele tenha ganhado incontestável aprovação do público nem tampouco pode levar-nos a pensar que suas interpretações foram sempre consensuais. Prova disso reside nos dissensos do período pós-publicação os quais se estenderam e alargaram até a era vitoriana, no século XIX, a partir de quando a obra mais importante de Jonathan Swift adquiriu novas leituras, especialmente no mundo anglo-norte-americano, até que, por fim, ingressasse no panteão dos grandes textos da moderna literatura de língua inglesa. Apresentar algumas das leituras e interpretações de peso do período vitoriano, considerando as nuances da crítica e da historiografia que trataram de Viagens de Gulliver, bem como introduzir os argumentos de alguns autores que, do fim do século XIX até a primeira metade do XX, revisitaram tanto essa obra como certos comentários acerca dela são, pois, os objetivos primordiais deste trabalho. / Since Gullivers Travels by Jonathan Swift, was printed in London, in 1726, it has been largely read and, consequently, reprinted. However, the evident editorial success of the book does not let to conclude that it had gained incontestable public approval, neither lead to think that interpretations about it were always consensual. A proof for this lays on disagreements from the post-publication period which had spread and enlarged until the Victorian age, in the 19th century; since then the most important book of Jonathan Swift has acquired new readings, especially in the Anglo-North-American world, and after all it got into the pantheon of the great texts of the English modern literature. Presenting some important readings and interpretations from the Victorian age, considering the nuances of the criticism and historiography that dealt with Gullivers Travels, as well as introducing arguments of some authors whom, from the end of the 19th century to the begin of the 20th century, revisited both the book and some commentaries concerning to it, are the prime objectives of this work.

This study examines and also evaluates the literary sources of Gulliver's Travels.

Headlong Developments' application HeadmasterDev is currently adapted for a single user. To turn their application into a multi-user system the programming language Swift will be used. Furthermore, this thesis will evaluate whether Swift is an appropriate programming language for developing a server application, how to handle concurrency of shared resources and if it is possible to deploy the application on a operative system other than macOS. The result is that the concurrency model is dependent on the system's needs and that one should not commit to using Swift as the programming language for a server application, with some regard to the size of the application and it's uses. / Headlong Developments applikation HeadmasterDev är endast anpassad för en användare. För att kunna transformera deras applikation till ett fleranvändarsystem så kommer detta arbete att använda sig av programmeringsspråket Swift. Utöver detta kommer det även undersökas om programmeringsspråket Swift är lämpligt för denna typ av applikation, hur man bäst hanterar samtidighet av delade resurser och om det är möjligt att använda applikationen på en annan plattform än macOS. Resultatet kom att bli att hur man löser samtidighetsproblemen beror på systemets behov och att Swift inte är lämpligt för denna applikation med tanke på dess storlek och användningsområden.

Böjsenor är senor i fingrarna som är kopplade till underarmens muskler. De läker långsamt efter en skada och kan därför gå av efter en reparation om patienten tränar för mycket eller för tungt. Vid för lite träning fastnar senan i omgivande vävnad och fingret blir stelt. Rehabiliteringen efter en böjsenskada pågår under minst tre månader efter operationen. Det kan därför bli svårt för patienter att upprätthålla motivationen och följa alla instruktioner korrekt under hela denna tid.   Syftet med projektet var att skapa en mobilapplikation som stödjer patienter i deras rehabilitering av en böjsenskada samt att implementera ett digitalt vinkelmätningsverktyg i applikationen. Applikationen utvecklades för både iOS- och Android-enheter med hjälp av deras officiella utvecklingsmiljöer, Android Studio och Xcode. Några funktioner som applikationen består av är en kalender med översikt av träningsplanen, möjligheten att utvärdera pass, möjligheten att skapa träningsprogram och exportera träningsdata. Applikationen innehåller även information om träningsinnehållet, kontaktinformation och allmänna råd till patienten.   Innan applikationen kan publiceras måste den testas på patienter för att få återkoppling om användarvänlighet och funktionalitet. De önskade funktionerna från uppdragsgivaren och målen uppnåddes med undantag av funktionen att lägga till möten som prioriterades bort. Det digitala vinkelmätningsverktyget implementerades för Android men inte för iOS. / Flexor tendons are tendons in the fingers that are connected to the muscles in the forearm. They heal slowly after an injury and can rupture again after the repair if the patient exercises too much or lifts too heavy. Insufficient exercise can cause the tendon to adhere to surrounding tissue, resulting in finger stiffness. Rehabilitation following a flexor tendon injury typically lasts for at least three months after surgery. Therefore, patients may find it challenging to maintain motivation and follow all instructions correctly throughout this period. The purpose of this project was to develop a mobile application that supports patients in their rehabilitation of a flexor tendon injury along with the implementation of a digital angle measuring tool. The application was developed for both iOS and Android devices using their official integrated development environments, Android Studio and Xcode. Some features that the application consists of are a calendar providing an overview of the training plan, the ability to evaluate sessions, the ability to create custom training programs and export training data. Additionally, the application contains information about the training content, contact details, and general advice for the patient. Before the application can be published, it needs to be tested on patients to gather feedback on user-friendliness and functionality. The desired features from the client and the goals for the project were achieved, apart from the meeting scheduling feature, which was deprioritized. The digital angle measuring tool was implemented for Android but not for iOS.
