Abstract in UndeterminedIn today's technology generations, e.g. 90 and 65 nm, the static power consumption becomes a major contributor to the total power consumption. This paper focuses on the arithmetic level and shows a methodology for a substantial reduction of the static power consumption. Simulations are done in a typical 130 nm technology. Based on the simulation results, the static power in
Cancer of unknown primary site (CUP) may be called an orphan disease, as it is diagnosed when metastases are detected while the primary tumor typically remains undetected, and because little research has been done on its primary causes. So far, few epidemiological studies, if any, have addressed possible risk factors for CUP. We analyzed data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer
This study evaluate the emerging international rice market by looking at supply and demand, price formation and development, and the extensive protection provided for rice on both national, bilateral and multilateral levels. The findings of this study are that rice is seen as a political good in many Asian countries due to its big impact on economy, society and political stability. Rice production
Discrimination has is an important social determinant of health and though some research has been carried out on this it is mostly from the United States, which may not be generalisable to Europe and Sweden. This study investigated the association between self-reported experiences of repeated discrimination and all-cause mortality in Scania, Sweden. The Scania Public Health survey was sent out in
Transitioning to renewable energy is an imperative to help mitigate climate change, but such transitions are inevitably embedded in broader socio-ecological and political dynamics. Recent scholarship has focused on these more-than-technological dimensions of energy transitions to help understand their promises and drawbacks. This article contributes to this research agenda by highlighting the impo
This thesis addresses the lack of consideration of Instagram as an online brand community. The aim is to explore consumption activities and motives regarding the artisan food brand on Instagram. It also seeks to investigate the idea of craft products and its influence on consumers' consumption choices and activities, including the concept of craft consumption. A netnographic approach is the ma
This thesis explores the phenomenon of clothing repair. The fashion industry stands out as one of the most environmentally unsustainable sectors globally, largely due to its adoption of the linear production and consumption model of take, make, and waste. In response to this, the European Union has prioritized textiles in its Circular Economy Action Plan, and within it repair emerges as the most d
The aim of this paper is to explore how digitally-enabled food provisioning platforms reconfigure households’ food consumption. Taking a market studies approach, and drawing on an ethnographic study of 15 households signing up to meal box schemes, the paper examines how meal box schemes, as market devices, work towards materially-semiotically organising household food consumption. Analysis shows t

Why does the rate of population growth decline in the face of economic growth? We show that growing product variety may induce a permanent reduction in the demand for children and a continuous rise in income and consumption. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Tradera, Sveriges ledande marknadsplats för cirkulär konsumtion på nätet, överväger att gå in på marknaden för bilannonsering på nätet i Sverige som en ny vertikal marknad för att diversifiera sin verksamhet. Detta examensarbete syftar till att avgöra om Tradera bör gå in på marknaden för bilannonsering online och att föreslå en strategisk plan för inträdet om det bedöms vara fördelaktigt. ProjekTradera, Sweden's leading online marketplace for circular consumption, is considering entering the online automotive advertising market in Sweden as a new vertical to diversify its business. This thesis aims to determine if Tradera should enter the online automotive advertising market and to propose a strategic roadmap for entry if it is determined to be beneficial. The scope of this project
The aim was to study implementation and efficacy of two intervention techniques for risky alcohol consumption in university students. One technique was the Responsible Beverage Service Programme modified for use in students pubs. The other was a cognitive-based education programme (10 hours) for freshman students with risky alcohol consumption that was compared with a mailed personalised drinking
Susceptibility to lung cancer may in part be attributable to inter-individual variability in metabolic activation or detoxification of tobacco carcinogens. The glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) genetic polymorphism has been extensively studied in this context; two recent meta-analyses of case-control studies suggested an association between GSTM1 deletion and lung cancer. At least 15 studies ha
There has been a great advance in our knowledge of the role that thrombophilic factors play in the risk of venous thromboembolic events (VTE). However, the effect of lifestyle factors on VTE has been inadequately explored in large scale studies of women. This cohort study comprised one thousand native Swedish women for each age year between 25 and 64 inclusive (total = 40 000) drawn from the South

Denna kvantitativa studie har i syfte att undersöka svenska högstadieelevers inställning till traditionella och digitala nyhetsmedier samt nyhetsföretag trovärdighet. Med utgångspunkt i strategiska kommunikationsteorier såsom gatekeeping, the Bandwagon effect och filterbubblor, utformades tre frågeställningar och fyra hypoteser. Med hjälp av statistikprogrammet SPSS analyserades 189 fullständiga eThis quantitative study was conducted with the aim to inquire into Swedish 9th graders’ attitudes towards traditional and digital news media and news outlets’ trustworthiness. With basis in strategic communication theories concerning gatekeeping, the Bandwagon effect and filter bubbles, three research questions and four hypotheses were designed.

This research confirms previous studies stating that in transition periods people are more likely to change their product preferences and use consumption as a tool to support the new role, as well as to keep and construct stable and harmonious identity. This study contributes to the identity domain of CCT by identifying the changing relationship to possessions in this specific transition and the s
The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to improve ethanol formation from xylose in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. This was achieved by decreasing the xylitol by-product formation. Gre3p is the major xylose-reducing enzyme in S. cerevisiae. Ypr1p, Gcy1p and the protein encoded by YJR096w also have the ability to reduce xylose in cell extracts. Furthermore, Gre3p, Ypr1p, Gc
