In recent years, as Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning technologies have advanced, there has been increasing interest in the study of energy-efficient and flexible architectures for embedded systems. To bridge the performance gap between microprocessors and memory systems, Near-Data Processing (NDP) was introduced. Although some works have implemented NDP, few of them utilize the microp
I slutet av 2010 upplopp i Tunisien ledde till att den Ben Ali regimen som hade styrt Tunisien sedan 1987 föll. Efter regimens fall gjordes efterfrågningar, till stor del från civilsamhället, angående hur man skulle hantera det förflutna i form av en process av övergångsrättvisa (transitional justice). I december 2013 antogs en lag om övergångsrättvisa. Lagen definierade perioden som skulle ingå iIn the end 2010 uprisings in Tunisia led to the fall of the regime of Ben Ali who had governed Tunisia since 1987. After the fall of the government request regarding how to handle the past in form of a transitional justice process was made, mainly from civil society. In December 2013 a law on transitional justice was adopted that defines the period that the transitional justice process is aiming o
Sedan början av 1990-talet omfattar yrkesutbildningen för tjänst i Svenska kyrkan en grundkurs (SKG) gemensam för de fyra yrkesprofilerna. Denna kurs är förlagd till folkhögskolor runt om i Sverige och kursen pågår under en termin. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka, tolka och analysera deltagarnas upplevelser av Svenska kyrkans grundkurs och folkhögskolan som pedagogisk miljö. I arbetet h
Sveriges regering satte 2011 upp mål om att bli bäst på att utnyttja digitaliseringens möjligheter. Digitaliseringen av bygglovsprocessen har trots det gått långsamt. Bygglovsprocessen idag (2018) är en långsam, dyr och ineffektiv process. Möjligheten att söka bygglov med e-legitimation finns endast hos 30 procent av kommunerna och 60 procent har någon slags e-tjänst ansökan. Ansökningarna innebärThe Swedish government set up a goal in 2011 of making the best use of digitization opportunities. The digitization of the building permit process has, however, been slow. The process of building permits is today (2018) a slow, expensive and inefficient process. The possibilities to apply for building permits with e-credentials is only available in 30 percent of municipalities and 60 percent have
In 2016, Taiwan was on the verge of becoming the first in Asia to allow same-sex marriage. An amendment aimed at changing marriage definition in Civil Code has passed the first-round reading in legislative committee in 26 December 2016. However, although Taiwan is seen as one of the most gay-friendly places in Asia, the same-sex marriage bill has generated intensive debates among citizens. And mas
All judicial power is to be condemned by the law according to the Swedish constitution but does this apply to a frame law where there is a legal gap that the decision makers can fill with other norms than legal norms? According to the paradigm of sociology of law do other factors than just legal norms affect the judicial decision. This means that the judicial decisions might be affected by factors
Cameras mounted on boats and in other similar environments can be hard to use if waves and wind cause unwanted motions of the camera which disturbs the desired image. However, this is a problem that can be fixed by applying mechanical image stabilization which is the goal of this thesis. The mechanical image stabilization is achieved by controlling two stepper motors in a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camer
Sammanfattning Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka samt beskriva omfattningen av köparens undersökningsplikt vid en immaterialrättslig due diligence. En immaterialrättslig due diligence är en undersökning av de immateriella rättigheterna. Exempel på vad som kan undersökas är datarum, diverse licensavtal, anställningsavtal, registreringar etc. Immateriella rättigheter kan vara det som skapar Summary The purpose of this thesis is to examine and describe the buyer's duty to investigate the company's intellectual property. Intellectual property can have a significant meaning for a commercial company, the intellectual property can also be the core of the company. Intellectual property is divided into four central laws. The first law is the Act on Copyright in Literary and Artisti
Ständiga förbättringar är viktiga för att upprätthålla ett företags konkurrenskraft inom sin bransch. Kunderna vill ha en hög leveranssäkerhet och flexibilitet för sina ordrar, men utförande från tillverkningsföretagens sida riskerar att vara bristande. Därför kan utförandet av kartläggningar och mätningar av orderprocessen, i kombination med förbättringar, stärka ett företags vidare konkurrenskraContinuous improvement is important for maintaining a company’s competitive position in its own industry. Customers want a high delivery reliability and flexibility for their orders, but the performance of the manufacturers is likely to be deficient. Therefore, the execution of mapping and measurements of the order process, combined with improvements, enhance corporate competitiveness further. An
To examine a putative role for neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in early vertebrate development we investigated nNOS mRNA expression and cGMP production during development of the zebrafish Danio rerio. The nNOS mRNA expression in the central nervous system (CNS) and periphery showed a distinct spatio-temporal pattern in developing zebrafish embryo and young larvae. nNOS mRNA expression was fi
Most of the experiments related to quantum information applications, involving rare-earth doped inorganic crystals, are performed on yttrium orthosilicate single crystals. The work presented here is motivated by the search of new compounds which can be used in the field of quantum computing and/or quantum storage.

Tidigare forskning om samverkan visar att samarbete innefattar problem och konflikter. Syftet med denna studie är att istället beskriva mer framgångsrik samverkan även om denna utspelas under kortare interaktionsfrekvenser. I boken diskuteras forskning som analyserat framgångsfaktorer men framförallt analyseras ett eget empiriskt material med fokus på hur och när aktörerna inom ungdomsvården framsPrevious collaboration research shows that problems and conflicts sometimes arise as a part of collaboration. This book analyzes successful cooperation unfolding during shorter interaction sequences. In this study I endeavour to describe the contributing factors that are necessary to achieve the phenomenon of a successful collaboration. I do this partially with help from studies published in previ
Popular Abstract in Swedish Malmö erbjuder speciellt goda möjligheter till epidemiologiska studier, därför att all sjukhusbunden vård erbjuds av ett enda sjukhus som dessutom i stort sett endast täcker Malmös egna behov. Därtill kommer att nu avlidne professor Folke Linell redan under 1950-talet insåg den stora betydelsen för sjukvårdens kvalitet av en omfattande obduktionsverksamhet. Under periodIn the present thesis incidence, survival, mortality, cure and prognosis in invasive breast cancer in Malmö was studied over a 30 year period. Validated data from the Cancer Registry and the Cause of Death Registry were used. In the process of validation systematical biases were identified in both registers. The incidence increased over time and was strongly related to increases in diagnostic acti
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna studie är att försöka förklara varför araméen Laban, vilken i Bibeln (Genesis) framstår som en ganska harmlös bifigur, i rabbinsk litteratur i allmänhet betraktas som en av Jakobs och därmed Israels stora fiender. Avhandlingen hävdar att bilden av Laban som en skurk utvecklats som ett resultat av rabbinsk hermeneutik och att de egenskaper som tillskrivsThis study attempts to answer the question of why Laban the Aramean, a rather harmless character as presented in the biblical text, is generally portrayed in rabbinic literature as a major enemy of Jacob and Israel. It is argued that the portrait of Laban as a villain developed as a result of rabbinic hermeneutics, and that the characteristics which are attributed to him in rabbinic literature wer
Popular Abstract in Swedish Klorofyllsyntes är en viktig process i naturen. De gröna pigmenten utgör en viktig del i fotosyntesen där de absorberar och överför solenergi till fotosyntetiska reaktionscentra. Magnesium kelatas katalyserar insättandet av en magnesium (II) jon i protoporfyrin IX, vilket är det första specifika steget i klorofyllsyntesen. Magnesium kelatas består av tre proteiner, som The biosynthesis of chlorophylls is an important process in nature. The green pigments play a fundamental role in absorbing and transferring solar energy to the photosynthetic apparatus. This thesis elucidates the role and function of the enzyme magnesium chelatase, which catalyses the insertion of magnesium (II) into protoporphyrin IX and is the first committed enzyme of the chlorophyll biosynthe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur framställer Johannesevangeliet Jesus och effekterna av hans gärning med tanke på de universella och inkluderande drag som finns i detta evangelium? Hur förhåller sig dessa inkluderande drag till framställningen i övrigt och till de begränsande och exkluderande drag som också finns där, och hur ska dessa motstridiga drag i evangeliet förklaras? Denna avhandling sökeMy thesis is an analysis of exclusive and inclusive features i the Gospel of John, focusing on the inclusive elements which comprise the world and all its people. These questions are the issue of my thesis: How does the Gospel of John present Jesus and the results of his work with regard to the universal and inclusive features which are in the Gospel? How do they relate to the presentation in gene

Till dessa hör höftfrakturer, som utgör ett folkhälsoproblem och en stor utmaning för samhällets sjuvårdsIn allowing compression along the femoral shaft (uniaxial dynamization) and optional compression along the femoral neck (biaxial dynamization), the Medoff sliding plate (MSP) represents a new principle in the fixation of trochanteric hip fractures. The Twin hook with 2 apical hooks was designed as an alternative to the lag screw. In 3 prospective consecutive case series and 1 prospective randomize
In polyandrous insects, postcopulatory sexual selection is a pervasive evolutionary force favouring male and female traits that allow control of offspring paternity. Males may influence paternity through adaptations for sperm competition, and females through adaptations facilitating cryptic female choice. Yet, the mechanisms are often complex, involving behaviour, physiology or morphology, and the
Popular Abstract in Swedish En omorganisation av det svenska Vägverket har medfört ett behov för dem att fungera som en professionell beställare enbart, utan utförande i egen regi. Det har naturligtvis också medfört en förändring i hur man hanterar upphandlingen av vägunderhåll. En väghållares främsta uppgift är att underhålla befintliga anläggningar och se till at de fungerar som avsett. Den näsA reorganization of the Swedish National Road Administration (SNRA) has urged a demand to work as a professional agency only, without any work by direct labor. This structure has enforced a change in how to handle the pavement maintenance and performance contracts are being promoted since they encourage product development and sustainability. Furthermore, SNRA desires to use the road network as a
