Kunskap är makt, vilket betyder att med genetisk kunskap följer anspråk på makt över livet, människorna och tankarna. Men anspråk på makt möter motanspråk. Därför har genetisk kunskap alltid genererat konflikter. Dessa handlar sällan om genetiken själv. Istället handlar de om makt-anknutna anspråk. Hur fullständig är egent-ligen kunskapen som våra genetiska undersökningar ger? Räcker den till för
We address the question of which syntactic representation is best suited for role-semantic analysis of English in the FrameNet paradigm. We compare systems based on dependencies and constituents, and a dependency syntax with a rich set of grammatical functions with one with a smaller set. Our experiments show that dependency-based and constituent-based analyzers give roughly equivalent performance
This book explores the process of viewing violence. At a time when politicians and the media police viewing habits, it is important to ask the basic question: why do adult movie goers choose to watch violent movies? If these movies are brutalizing, why do people consider them entertaining? This book asserts that men and women respond to violent movies in dynamic and complex ways. With the benefit
Popular Abstract in Swedish Gränsen mellan uppsåt och oaktsamhet har gäckat rättsvetenskap och praktiker under 1900-talet. Åtskilliga gånger har uppsåtsdebattens vågor även gått höga i massmedia. Ett exempel är uppståndelsen över hovrättens dom i det så kallade Klippanmålet. Sedan några år finns också ett förslag från den statliga utredningen, "Straffansvarets gränser", att lösa problemet med lagsThe description and explanation of the determination of mens rea, or fault, in this thesis begins so to speak, at the “shop-floor” of criminal law. The analysis is based on a survey of judgements of the Swedish courts of first instance for the years 1989-1992 in cases involving intentional killing, causing death through recklessness/negligence as well as gross assault, where such offences constitu
Laser-induced incandescence (LII) is a versatile technique for quantitative soot measurements in flames and exhausts. When used for particle sizing, the time-resolved signals are analysed as these will show a decay rate dependent on the soot particle size. Such an analysis has traditionally been based on the assumption of isolated primary particles. However, soot particles in flames and exhausts a
The main topic of this thesis is the investigation of small molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces by means of core-level photoemission spectroscopy. The thesis consists of three parts; The first group of papers concerns the effects of internal molecular vibrations on the core-level photoemission spectra. The second and third groups of papers concern more basic adsorption properties, like adsorption
A critical and evaluative study of the eight Commissions of the Edinburgh 1910 World Missionary Conference, including papers commissioned from leading Third World theologians, with substantive Introduction and Conclusion by editors. The book represents a major contribution to the preparation of the 2010 international centenary conference, also to be held in Edinburgh.
This paper presents dataflow machines, a model for stream programs aimed at capturing their logical structure in a way that is amenable to analysis, composition, and hardware and software code generation. We discuss the properties of the model, and its relationship to a previous effort, actor machines. Dataflow machines are motivated by the shortcomings of actor machines when generating highly par
Fundamental bounds on single-port antennas and on array antennas have been shown to depend on the electric and magnetic polarizability tensors. We show four such cases and compare how the polarizabilities enter into the bounds. One of the critical items in using these bounds is the determination of the polarizabilities. We here review methods to obtain the polarizabilities, and discuss some of the
