This paper addresses Test Application Time (TAT) reduction for core-based 3D Stacked ICs (SICs). Applying traditional test scheduling methods used for non-stacked chip testing where the same test schedule is applied both at wafer test and at final test to SICs, leads to unnecessarily high TAT. This is because the final test of 3D-SICs includes the testing of all the stacked chips. A key challenge
The paper investigates the potential for a packet switching network for real-time image processing by a Cellular Neural Network (CNN) implemented on a Field-Programmable Gate-Array (FPGA). The implementation of a CNN requires several parameter restrictions with respect to the universal concept. For instance, the number representation and the cloning template are often confined to respectively 8 bi
There are various ways to classify asthma control; however, no classification is universally accepted. This retrospective analysis compared asthma control as assessed by the Asthma Control Questionnaire (5-item version; ACQ-5), Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) or Gaining Optimal Asthma Control (GOAL) study criteria. Pooled data at the final study week (n=8,188) from three budesonide/formoterol
Med en enkätstudie undersöks i detta projekt hur effektivt de berörda anser att de medieetiska systemen ger upprättelse. Här är det värt att nämna att vi då arbetet inleddes bad PO-kansliet om hjälp att distribuera vår enkät till alla dem som stod bakom framgångsrika anmälningar under 2015. På så sätt skulle enkäten kunna genomföras samtidigt som anonymiteten i PO-systemet kunde
Background: Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based treatment for self-harm and emotion regulation difficulties. A modified version, DBT-Skills System (DBT-SS), has been developed in the USA for individuals with cognitive difficulties. The present study is a pilot study, testing the DBT-SS in a Swedish context.Methods: Six participants were treated with individual therapy and group
Urbanisation is proceeding at an alarming rate which forces wildlife to either retreat from urban areas or cope with novel stressors linked to human presence and activities. For example, urban stressors like anthropogenic noise, artificial light at night and chemical pollution can have severe impacts on the physiology of wildlife (and humans), in particular the immune system and antioxidant defenc
Doktorsavhandlingen ger inblick i en betydelsefull konsekrerande beslutsprocess inom det svenska konstfältet under perioden 1885–1920. Den analyserar de sociala strukturer som bar fram Nationalmuseums inköpsnämnds och museinämnds årliga beslutsförslag till Kungl. Maj:t om vilka oljemålningar, skapade av vid tiden levande svenska konstnärer, som skulle inlemmas i samlingarna och vilka som skulle exThis dissertation examines the Swedish National Museum of Fine Arts (Nationalmuseum) as a consecrating institution of fine art, between 1885 and 1920. A time influenced by major events such as the First World War, Sweden’s industrial revolution and the advent of universal suffrage. During this period, the production and consumption of the Arts was characterised by rivalry between three fractions,
Background: The CREST model is a prediction model, quantitating the risk of circulatory-etiology death (CED) after cardiac arrest based on variables available at hospital admission, and intend to guide the triage of comatose patients without ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This study assessed performance of the CREST model in the Target Te
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) impacts many veterans and active duty soldiers, but diagnosis can be problematic due to biases in self-disclosure of symptoms, stigma within military populations, and limitations identifying those at risk. Prior studies suggest that PTSD may be a systemic illness, affecting not just the brain, but the entire body. Therefore, disease signals likely span multipl
The glutamate transporter 1 (GLT1) is upregulated during astrocyte development and maturation in vivo and is vital for astrocyte function. Yet it is expressed at low levels by most cultured astrocytes. We previously showed that maturation of human and mouse stem cell-derived astrocytes - including functional glutamate uptake - could be enhanced by fibroblast growth factor (FGF)1 or FGF2. Here, we
[Context and motivation] Quality requirements (QRs) are inherently difficult to manage as they are often subjective, context-dependent and hard to fully grasp by various stakeholders. Furthermore, there are many sources that can provide input on important QRs and suitable levels. Responding timely to customer needs and realizing them in product portfolio and product scope decisions remain the main
Oath-taking during Roman Antiquity constitutes a telling example of how words and matter interplay and relate to one another. Ancient Latin literature provides a myriad of representations of oaths sworn, both fictive and supposedly historical, where matter somehow figure in the procedure. In this study, a selection of personal oaths from Roman literature are explored in terms of materiality and ag
Seismic Structural Health Monitoring (S2HM) provides information about the integrity of civil structures and infrastructure in the aftermath of an earthquake. However, quantifying the benefits of S2HM information is crucial to justify the investment in S2HM systems. The benefit of S2HM can be computed through the Value of Information (VoI) from Bayesian decision theory, which compares the expected
A people-centred approach for designing large-scale built-up spaces necessitates systematic anticipation of user’s embodied visuo-locomotive experience from the viewpoint of human-environment interaction factors pertaining to aspects such as navigation, wayfinding, usability. In this context, we develop a behaviour-based visuo-locomotive complexity model that functions as a key correlate of cognit
Earlier treatment of breast cancer results in better survival. Screening enables this through detection of tumors before they cause symptoms. On the negative side, some tumors if not detected through screening would not cause symptoms, leading to overdiagnosis. Improvements in image quality allow even earlier detection and diagnosis of even smaller tumors at an even earlier stage. This study aims
