The blogging culture has become an important and integrated part of the book trade and has influenced the publishing, marketing and distribution of literature in North America and in many European countries.

In this paper, we describe a passage retrieval component for a questioning answering system and we evaluate its performance on Swedish documents. We used a corpus of questions and answers transcribed from the Swedish board game Kvitt eller dubbelt and, as source for the passages, we used the articles of the Swedish version of Wikipedia. We show that Wikipedia is a suitable knowledge source to answ

Drawing on psychoanalytic accounts of Rebecca West’s work (Varney, 2000; Bonikowski, 2005) which tend to focus on We

Area and Power Reduction in DFT Based Channel Estimators for OFDM Systems

This paper presents a new Hardware (HW) im- plementation proposal for Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) based channel estimators. The presented algorithm uses the high time correlation property of the channel estimates to reduce the complexity and the power consumption by utilizing a lower number of bits for the FFT in the channel estimator, compared to a traditional approach. The idea is that the
