We propose an integrated technique for extensive optimization of the final test solution for System-on-Chip using Simulated Annealing. The produced results from the technique are a minimized test schedule fulfilling test conflicts under test power constraints and an optimized design of the test access mechanism. We have implemented the proposed algorithm and performed experiments with several benc
Objective: To compare the efficacy and side effects of intermittent pulse cyclophosphamide plus methylprednisolone with continuous oral cyclophosphamide plus prednisolone, followed by azathioprine, in patients with proliferative glomerulonephritis caused by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods: A multicentre randomised controlled trial was conducted between June 1992 and May 1996 involving
The nucleus Ge-68 has been studied by gamma-ray spectroscopy following its population at high spin in the reaction Ca-40(S-32,4p) Ge-68. The reaction channel was selected with the Microball array and gamma rays were detected with the Gammasphere array. The level scheme is very complex, reflecting the many different, and presumably mixed, excitation modes in this nucleus. Nevertheless, there appear
The BCJR algorithm is an important channel decoding method. We extend it to trellis rate-distortion data compression. Beginning from source coding principles, the derivation of the algorithm avoids channel coding or soft output ideas. The encoder does not use entropy coding; equiprobable reproducer letters are emphasized since these maximize entropy. The BCJR method is demonstrated by tests of a
The economic development in the world today makes increased consumption of goods and travelling available for more people around the world than ever before. This results, however, also in increased production and spreading of substances that are hazardous both to human health and to the ecosystem globally. Therefore, education to increase knowledge, awareness, motivation, and action competence on
Background Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is associated with an increased mortality attributable to cardiovascular disease (CVD), suggested to be alleviated by surgery. The exact mechanism of the beneficial influence of parathyroidectomy on survival is unknown. Furthermore, studies suggest that there is no increased mortality compared to the mortality rate in the general population during rece
Popular Abstract in Swedish En industrirobot är en flexibel programmerbar maskin som bör användas för sådant arbete som inte lämpar sig för människan att utföra. Olika tekniska begränsningar i dagens styrsystem begränsar dock robotars tillämpbarhet. Avhandlingen föreslår ett nytt sätt att bygga upp robotstyrsystem så att roboten på bästa sätt skall kunna tjäna människan.Industrial robots play a key role in manufacturing systems. Robots are distinguished from other types of machinery mainly on the basis of their programmability and ability to be adaptable to different tasks. The use of computer control to achieve desired flexibility implies that software issues for embedded control systems are central for the applicability and utilization of the equipment. The str
Popular Abstract in Swedish I den här avhandlingen utforskas förhållandet mellan position, funktion och betydelse hos den tyska partikeln ?also? (?alltså?). I den tyska grammatiken har ?also? traditionellt sett klassificerats som ett konjunktionellt adverb eftersom det ensamt kan fylla positionen före det finita verbet i en tysk sats, den så kallade ?Vorfeld?-positionen (?fundamentet?). När ?also?This thesis explores the relationship between the position, function and semantics of the German particle "also" (?so?). Traditionally, "also" is classified as a conjunctional adverb because it can fill the position in front of the finite verb in the German clause, the so-called "Vorfeld" (?pre-field?). In this position, it has a meaning similar to that of a conjunction but a distribution similar
We have studied the effects of triiodothyronine administration (20-40 micrograms three times daily over one week) in six healthy young men, on the activities of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase and on plasma lipoprotein concentrations. Hepatic lipase activity in post-heparin plasma rose by 46 +/- 25% (p less than 0.025), whereas the activity of lipoprotein lipase did not change significantly.
Leaching and tracer experiments in batches at L/S 20 were performed with 3-month-old MSWI bottom ash separated into eight different particle sizes. The time-dependent leaching of major elements (Ca2+, K+ Na+, Cl- and SO4-2) was monitored for up to 747 It. Physical properties of the particles, the specific surface (BET), pore volume and pore volume distribution over pore sizes (BJH) were determined
Graft polymerization initiated by diperiodatocuprate(III) complex (Cu(III)) initiator was found to be an effective and convenient method for graft polymerization of vinyl monomers onto macroporous polyacrylamide gels, the so-called cryogels (pAAm-cryogels). The effect of time, temperature, monomer and initiator concentration during the graft polymerization in aqueous and aqueous-organic media was
