Java has proven to he a powerful language for software development. In this paper we show that it is also suitable for hardware compilation, making it an attractive language for embedded system development. Our compilation technique, which is presented here, is based on separating different aspects of the program and use dedicated and specialised optimisations and code generators for each aspect.

The environment in which companies operate is constantly changing thereby changing the parameters determining whether they are to be successful in business. One of the strategies that have been popular in ensuring profitability for companies is outsourcing – traditionally done in order to lower cost. In past years the initiative for outsourcing has shifted from simple cost reductions to involving

I artikeln analyseras de begreppen jämställdhet och jämlikhet mot bakgrund av den nya samlade diskrimineringslagen från 2009. I stället för att ge ett samlat skydd mot diskriminering, menar Schömer, att lagen snarare ger ett intryck av ett splittrat och tämligen ostrukturerat hopkok av skilda former av diskriminering, visserligen sammanförda i en ny lag. Genom en nyläsning av jämställdhetsbegreppe

Popular Abstract in Swedish Streptococcus pyogenes (GAS) är en viktig sjukdomsframkallande bakterie som orsakar alltifrån lindriga infektioner som halsfluss (tonsillit) och svinkoppar (impetigo) till livshotande djupa infektioner som nekrotiserande fasceit eller ”Toxic shock syndrom”. På grund av det snabba sjukdomsförloppet i de livshotande infektionerna har streptokockerna fått beteckningen ”mörA distinguishing feature of Streptococcus pyogenes (GAS) is their ability to resist phagocytosis in whole human blood in the absence of type-specific antibodies, a property that is dependent on the expression of the surface associated M proteins. A common characteristic of M proteins is their interaction with a variety of host proteins including the complement regulatory protein factor H (FH) and

he surface structure of Bi(110) has been investigated by low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) intensity analysis and by first-principles calculations. Diffraction patterns at a sample temperature of 110 K and normal incidence reveal a bulk truncated (1×1) surface without indication of any structural reconstruction despite the presence of dangling bonds on the surface layer. Good agreement is obt

Generation of good non-repeatable and non-predictable random number sequences is of increasing importance, both in security applications and in simulations. A novel, compact system is presented in which a secure random number is generated by sampling a chaotic system and using this bitstream as the input to a pseudo-random generator. An optional hash function can be used on the seed in order to de

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen behandlar främst Schwannceller och hur de reagerar på en nervskada. Schwannceller omger alla nervtrådar i det perifera nervsystemet det vill säga det nervsystem som ligger utanför hjärna och ryggmärg och innerverar armar, ben, händer och fötter och så vidare. Schwannceller och ger dessa tillgång till de näringsämnen de behöver. De städar också upp sThis thesis concerns alterations in signal transduction in Schwann cells as a response to nerve injury as well as their survival, proliferation and death. Enzymes and transcription factors belonging to the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) and the stress activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathways were studied. This included the extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), c-Jun N-termin

During the first few enzymatic turnovers after dark adaptation of photosystem II (PSII), the relaxation rate of the EPR signals from the Mn cluster and YD(dot) are significantly enhanced. This light-adaptation process has been suggested to involve the appearance of a new paramagnet on the PSII donor side [Peterson, Åhrling, Hogblom, and Styring, Biochemistry 2003, asap]. In the present study, a co

Popular Abstract in Swedish Språklig bearbetning och kontextuell påverkan En studie av förskolebarn med språkstörning Bakgrund Avhandlingen behandlar olika aspekter av språklig bearbetning hos barn med språkstörning. Barn med språkstörning har svårt att tillägna sig sitt modersmål trots att de växer upp i en enspråkig miljö. Dessa barn får problem i förskolan och ofta senare under skolåren efterLanguage Processing and Contextual Influence A Study of Swedish Preschool Children with Language Impairment The aim of the present work was to study different types of contextual influence on language performance in a variety of tasks: repetition of nonwords, narration, understanding of idioms and picture naming in a group of Swedish preschool children with language impairment (LI).
