Walking Along, Wandering Off and Going Astray A Critical Normativity Approach to Walking as a Situated Architectural Experience

Popular Abstract in Swedish Gående som mellanmänsklig handling Traska, spatsera, flanera, power-gå, ila, dra fötterna efter sig, ta en stärkande promenad eller bara vandra bort i tankarna för en kort stund. Att gå är en komplex handling som omfattar allt från upplevelsen av marken som vi går på till människorna vi möter. Både när vi är ute och går själva eller tillsammans med andra så förhåller vThere is a lack of attention toward the diversity in experiences of architecture that are expressed through walking. Through the application of autoethnography and critical perspectives of queer and feminist theory, this dissertation develops a method for investigating experiences of architecture in regard to the activity of walking. In addition, this thesis addresses the influence of form, materi

Critical Thinking in Scholarship : Meanings, Conditions and Development

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna avhandling är att utforska fenomenet vetenskapligt kritiskt tänkande, när det gäller dess olika innebörder, villkor och utveckling. Kritiskt tänkande studeras genom att analysera olika filosofiska och pedagogiska texter, utifrån ett hermeneutiskt-fenomenologiskt perspektiv. Avhandlingen som är skriven på engelska erbjuder läsaren en inblick i hur min egThe purpose of this thesis is to explore the phenomenon of critical thinking in scholarship as regards its meanings, conditions, and development using a hermeneutic-phenomenological approach. This exploration takes its departure in ancient Greece, following a historical movement of the phenomenon up to present day perspectives on critical thinking, revealing a range of different meanings and condi

DESIRE Toolkit Components - Matcher

The Matcher tool implements a subject classification process using a subject-specific thesaurus by which terms are intellectually mapped to categories or subject classes. The classification process is made up of several steps. First, the document to be classified is fetched. Text is extracted from this document, and all thesaurus terms are matched to it. Some heuristic processing rules are applied

Logarithmic bit-significance ratio: Definition, calculation rules and examples

We motivate and discuss the Logarithmic Bit- Significance Ratio (S-value) which is a universal measure to quantify the significance of each bit in a digital communication system. Calculation rules for the S-values are given which, for instance, allow for the computation of the significances of parity bits when the significances of the data bits are given. The introduction of the S-value allows for

Urmia Lake Watershed Restoration in Iran: Short- and Long-Term Perspectives

Urmia Lake (also known as Oroumieh Lake) is a shallow terminal lake located in northwest Iran and one of the largest permanent lakes in the Middle East. Due to its biodiversity it has been designated as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO and a National Park under the 1971 Ramsar Convention.

The mucosa-associated bacteria from the sigmoid colon of nine healthy 60 years old individuals, identified by bacterial 16S rDNA

The bacterial flora of the gastro intestinal (GI) tract may be involved in chronic inflammation and colon cancer and affected by antibiotics, cytotoxic drugs and radiotherapy, trauma and intensive care therapy. It is important to map the mucosa-associated flora in healthy individuals to clarify the pathogenic risk under stressed conditions. The aim was to achieve an overview of the mucosa-associat

Efficient Regression Testing Based on Test History: An Industrial Evaluation

Due to changes in the development practices at Axis Communications, towards continuous integration, faster regression testing feedback is needed. The current automated regression test suite takes approximately seven hours to run which prevents developers from integrating code changes several times a day as preferred. Therefore we want to implement a highly selective yet accurate regression testing
