We jointly optimize Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle length and LTE scheduling to minimize mobile devices' energy usage for video delivery, utilising the now well-established potential to predict future channel conditions in cellular networks. Employing in-network caching, we set a strict buffer constraint which provides zero buffer underflow to improve Quality of Experience. Our study provides

From experience, it has been well known that the performance of IEEE 802.11 wireless local area networks significantly drops in dense settings, largely driven by poor capacity of the medium access control (MAC) layer. The current 802.11 MAC mechanism utilizes a contention window (CW) for random access, and the CW size is dictated to take discrete values from a bounded finite set. In this paper, wi

In industries like high-tech and automotive, increasingly more of the product value delivered to the customer is based on a combination of hardware (HW) and software (SW), where SW handles much of the differentiation of capacity and features. The “logistics process” of SW, especially when it merges with HW along the process, has so far been little studied but a problem noticed is the difficulties

The U.S. counterinsurgency – symbolised by the omnipresent killing eye of drones – as it expands from the battlefield to the monitor, is criticised for inaugurating a geographically unbounded war that subjects the everyday life of a population to wartime targeting calculation. We, however, claim that the significant feature of the so-called new technologies of looking and targeting is in their abi

Den aisopiska fabeln etablerades som genre i den grekiska antiken och nådde Skandinavien under medeltiden. I svensk kultur upplevde fabeln en storhetstid under den tidigmoderna epoken (1500–1800). Monografin Fabelbruk i svensk tidigmodernitet. En genrehistorisk studie tar ett helhetsgrepp om fabelgenrens historia i Sverige under denna 300-årsperiod. I dialog med ny internationell fabel- och genrefEstablished as a genre in Greek antiquity, the Aesopic fable reached Scandinavia during the Middle Ages. In Sweden, the fable experienced its glory days during the early modern epoch (1500–1800). The monograph Fabelbruk i svensk tidigmodernitet. En genrehistorisk studie [Usage of Fable in Swedish Early Modernity. A Genre History] takes a comprehensive look at the history of fable in Sweden during

User Generated Content (UGC) is projected to make up a significant part of the total Internet traffic in the future. As such, it will significantly contribute to the total cost for Internet traffic worldwide. Arguably, UGC is a suitable content type for which the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) can take initiative and enter the content delivery market. However, despite its significance, UGC cont

When load balancing data centres with all serversactive to serve jobs, the result can be excessive energy usage. Onthe other hand, using dynamic server provisioning, the numberof servers that serve requests can be reduced by turning off idleservers and thereby save energy. However, such a scheme, usuallyincreases the risk of instability of server queues. In this work,we analyze the trade-off betwe

This paper describes the RTD project FRR (Friendly Rest Room) which is partly funded by the EU in the Quality of Life programme. The objective of the FRR project is (a) to create prototypes of more user friendly rest rooms for old persons and for persons
