In 2001, when the Taliban decided to destroy numerous cultural artefacts, including two colossal Buddha statues, that they considered incompatible with their faith, a large outcry was heard across the Western world. From the UNESCO to the British Museum, and from the Dalai Lama to countless head of governments, all were united in condemning this act of ’cultural terrorism’ that was said to prove n

We propose a technique for test scheduling and design of test bus infrastructure where test application time and test bus length and width are minimized while constraints on power consumption and test resources are considered. Our approach is suitable for repeated use in the design space exploration process due to its low computational cost. For the final design, we use simulated annealing to opti

Psykologyrket kan ta sig många olika former och uttryck. Därför är de arbetsmiljöer och vardagssituationer yrkesverksamma psykologer möter högst varierande. En del psykologer är verksamma inom offentlig sektor, andra inom privat sektor. En del psykologer arbetar med utvecklingsfrågor och barn och ungdomar, andra med rehabiliteringsfrågor och äldre människor. Resurser, problem och målgrupper kan va

The Swedish hydropower industry operates a large number of power plants and dams geographically spread over the country. The level of safety of a specific dam is to a large extent determined during the design and construction phases that in the case of Swedish hydropower plants took place several decades ago. Condition monitoring of concrete dams, or hydropower concrete structures, has until recen

I antologibidraget visas att lärande, eller kanske snarare deltagande i olika former av utbildning, rättfärdigas på olika sätt beroende på om de som utbildas är barn eller vuxna. Rättfärdigandet sker genom retoriska konstruktioner av samhället som närmast kan ses som motsatser: barnens skolgång rättfärdigas genom att samhället konstrueras som en, åtminstone värdemässig, konstant; vuxnas deltagande

In this paper we address intra-domain routing optimiza- tion issues in Internet networks related to a combination of Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Multi Protocol La- bel Switching (MPLS) routing protocols. Since MPLS can be combined with any routing protocol there has appeared an idea of coupling IP streams routed via the OSPF pro- tocol and MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in the same netwo

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi blir alla förkylda, får influensa eller magsjuka någon gång då och då. Smittsamma sjukdomar orsakas av patogener, d.v.s. virus, bakterier eller andra typer av parasiter. De flesta patogener som vi kommer i kontakt med tas om hand av vårt effektiva immunförsvar och vi märker i bästa fall inte av smittan. Huruvida vi blir sjuka eller inte när vi utsätts för smitta, berThe Major Histocompatibility Complex (Mhc) genes are crucial for the recognition of self and non-self peptides by the immune defence system. They are extremely variable in most studied vertebrate species. I have studied the extent and the importance of Mhc variation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), mainly from the Baltic Sea. Levels of Mhc heterozygosity in hatchery populations of salmon were bet
