This talk describes the various stages of ATLAS Data Challenge 2 (DC2) in what concerns usage of resources deployed via NorduGrid's Advanced Resource Connector (ARC). It also describes the integration of these resources with the ATLAS production system using the Dulcinea executor. ATLAS Data Challenge 2 (DC2), run in 2004, was designed to be a step forward in the distributed data processing. In p

The problem of empty names derives from the fact that empty names fail to refer. The reference failure of empty names implies that sentences containing empty names lack truth-conditions. As a consequence those sentences are meaningless, according to many theories of meaning. The present dissertation addresses the problem of empty names and proposes a solution to the problem at hand. In brief, the

Structure from sound can be phrased as the problem of determining the position of a number of microphones and a number of sound sources given only the recorded sounds. In this paper we study minimal structure from sound problems in both TOA (time of arrival) and TDOA (time difference of arrival) settings with collinear constraints on e.g. the microphone positions. Three such minimal cases are anal

Background Variations in colonoscopy practice exist, which may be related to healthcare quality. Aims To determine factors associated with three performance indicators of colonoscopy: complete colonoscopy, adenomatous polyp diagnosis, and duration. Patients Consecutive patients referred for colonoscopy from 21 centres in 11 countries. Methods This prospective observational study used multiple

Abstract in French La démarche herméneutique qui soutient l’analyse effectuée ici des quatre évaluations produites par les experts nordiques combine trois mouvements interprétatifs. Le premier mouvement relève de l’histoire des sciences. Il a pour objectif de cerner la genèse de la discipline phonétique qu’il faut considérer comme un moment clef de l’histoire des sciences du langage en Suède. Le s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Principen för biologisk vattenreningsteknik är att mikroorganismer används för att bryta ner olika typer av föroreningar. Då det finns en stor mängd olika sorters mikroorganismer, kan flera typer av nedbrytningsmekanismer och processutformningar utnyttjas för olika krav och syften. Nackdelen med biologisk vattenreningsteknik är dock att den är känslig för störningar ochThe aim of the thesis was to investigate how different abiotic and biotic parameters may affect microorganisms and the process performance in various biological wastewater treatment systems. The type of carbon source in the influent wastewater may have a profound effect on the composition and the activity of denitrifying activated sludge bacteria in nutrient removal. Of four investigated carbon s

Popular Abstract in Swedish Tarmen skall så effektivt som möjligt sönderdela och ta upp näringsämnen från födan samtidigt som den också skall hindra skadliga ämnen och organismer från att ta sig in i blod och vävnad. Näringsupptaget underlättas dels av en betydande ytförstoring i den främre delen av tunntarmen och dels av födans sönderdelning som sker med hjälp av tuggning, saltsyra i magen, mag- The gastrointestinal tract has two opposing functions; to effectively absorb nutrients and to act as a safety barrier against hazardous substances in the environment. After birth these functions develops gradually. The present thesis focuses on how the intestinal permeability and pancreatic secretion changes during ontogenic development of the pig, with some methodological aspects on manipulations

The book focuses on the development of Indonesian/Javanese public administration from the 18th to the 21st centuries. More specifically, it raises the issue whether Indonesia's public administration is the product of copying alien forms, continuing indigenous norms, or creating new ones. Many of the dysfunctional aspects of the Republic's administration seem to go back to the colonial period's 'in

Conventional guidance on the design and management of urban roads and streets has tended to focus on either arterial roads or local access streets. There is currently a lack of a clear, consistent approach to the design of arterial streets, which combine both significant through traffic and urban place functions. This report aims to address this gap, by setting out an approach to the design and ma
