UPPHOVSRÄTT Metaforer är grundläggande för vårt tänkande, men även för rättssystemet. De språkliga lånen från den fysiska världen – nätverk, moln, e-bok – styr tanken mer än vi tror, och det blir lätt att vi tänker på exempelvis digitala kopior i samma termer som fysiska.
We present a web-based method for mapping various relations between agents that have been involved in an emergency response operation. The method is based on combining a web-questionnaire with telephone interviews and it provides an efficient way of collecting large amount of information concerning the agents. By using the resulting network of agents it is possible to perform various network analy
The problem of adaptive control is considered from a perspective of l2-gain. It has recently been shown that without an a priori bound on the system parameters, there exists no single dynamic feedback law that achieves bounded gain from disturbances to state for all first order linear systems. In this paper, a converse statement is proved for a standard adaptive scheme where the parameter estimate
Waste recycling and resource recovery was recognized as an effective way of managing waste; as the rapid increase in solid waste generation became a serious problem which threaten the human and environment. Scavenging activities are one of the common methods for recycling in the Third world countries. In this work we will see the role of scavengers and their effect on the waste management process
Manipulation, separation and trapping of particles and cells are very important tools in today's bioanalytical and medical field. The acoustic no-contact trapping method presented at earlier MSW 2004 provides a flexible platform for performing cell and particle assays in a perfusion-based microsystem. To further develop the system microfabricated glass channels are now used, resulting in shorter f
Newborn boys have higher morbidity and mortality than girls. Several studies have shown that male newborn sex is an independent risk factor for adverse outcome. The specific mechanisms leading to the increased risks for newborn boys are not known. However, several sex-specific reactions and physiologic responses have been described in both the fetus and newborn infants. Some of these differences p
