A survey of four co-design tools for joint analysis, simulation, and design of computer-based control systems developed within the Swedish ARTES programme is presented. The tools allow simultaneous treatment of the control aspects and the computing and communication aspects of the control problems. The tools are Jitterbug and TrueTime developed at the Department of Automatic Control LTH, Lund Univ
This ethnographic study explores how Singaporean middle-class women who have opted out of the traditional labour market to support their children actively redefine their roles and responsibilities. How are investments of time, energy, emotional and economic resources in children’s education explained, and what bearing do they have on norms of motherhood? While involved or intensive parenting style
Type 1 diabetes is diagnosed at the end of a prodrome of β-cell autoimmunity. The disease is most likely triggered at an early age by autoantibodies primarily directed against insulin or glutamic acid decarboxylase, or both, but rarely against islet antigen-2. After the initial appearance of one of these autoantibody biomarkers, a second, third, or fourth autoantibody against either islet antigen-
Metal ion catalyzed autoxidation of of aqueous sulfur dioxide in atmospheric droplets is an important pathway for the total oxidation of sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere and for formation of acid rain. This paper presents a summary of the results obtained for the Mn(II/III) catalyzed oxidation of SO2(aq).
At the end of the 1980s, a tri-polar world comprising the US, EU and Japan emerged. However, the economic turbulence of the early 21st century has destabilized this order, and the rise of other Asian powers has implications for the formation of a new economic configuration. This book discusses the probability of the different tentative global economic power balances to emerge, as well as the diff
The blogging culture has become an important and integrated part of the book trade and has influenced the publishing, marketing and distribution of literature in North America and in many European countries. However, it is unclear how this potential agency among bloggers operates, and thus far most research has concerned politics, media systems and larger social structures. The present article is
Abstract in UndeterminedWe examined how hypnotizability, dissociation, alterations in consciousness, belief in success, and previous psi experiences related to performance in a ganzfeld psi task. High (n = 14) and low (n = 12) hypnotizables participated in 2 sessions. The first included measures of dissociation and alterations in consciousness during ganzfeld, whereas the second consisted of a tel
Att avlägsna en luftförorening från en bostad kan ske på olika sätt, dels genom ventilationen dels genom att vissa föroreningar avlägsnas genom någon typ av filtrering av luften. Filtrering av luften används t.ex. vid olika typer av allergiska problem för att avlägsna icke önskvärda partiklar, t.ex. pollen. Filtrering har också föreslagits som en möjlig metod att minska stråldosen i samband med ra
The United Nations (UN)-led global consultations on new development goals, which will replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), started in 2012. In comparison with the creation of the MDGs, the road towards the post-2015 goals is much more inclusive and participatory. The consultations are part of a longer trend, in which intergovernmental organizations seek to strengthen their legitimacy
Standard Swedish has a large amount of import words from Low German. These words were adopted by the urban population, approximately 5 % of the people, in the middle ages. According to the author very little was taken over by the speakers of the genuine rural dialects. Instead it is resonable to believe that the propagation of these import word took place as an aspect of the weakening of the rural
When production is outsourced consumers possibilities to inform themselves about production processes is reduced. Information instruments for consumers, e.g. labelling, are more difficult to apply when materials and chemicals used during production cannot be monitored easily. The globalisation of production and consumption is a challenge for consumers as regards quality of products. This paper us
