The Internet, mobile telephony and portable computers let today's user meet novel applications provided by the service developers, who are motivated by the popular customer trends in technology. However, the supply-demand chain observed in telecommunications causes the complexity of both the user devices as well as the network to increase. The complexity is caused by the need to support quality of

For how many years was a farmer responsible for running a farm in Sweden’s old peasant society’? This is the question that underpins my research into life in Ramkvilla parish in the province of Småland for two hundred years (1623–1819). By conducting a detailed study of farm practice at the individual level, I have been able to analyse a complex theme that touches upon the issues of responsibility

Through practical experiments, edge-wear analysis, and the study of archaeological collections, the dissertation explores the complex relationship between style and function in a specific class of artifacts: the Neolithic axe. The results of the three-part approach described above, when applied for instance to thin-butted axes from the Funnel Beaker Culture, indicated that there was no clear-cut c

In this paper, we explore the significant challenges relating to investment in IT in business. Information technology does not in itself deliver business value. We highlight the complexities that are often ignored in management of IT projects. If the management system in an organization is ineffective, then installing information technologies does not constitute a ‘magic wand’ that will generate p

Current models for predicting volatility do not incorporate information flow and are solely based on historical volatilities. We suggest a method to quantify the semantic content of words in news articles about a company and use this as a predictor of its stock volatility. The results show that future stock volatility is better predicted by our method than the conventional models. We also analyze

Nematode-trapping fungi are ubiquitous, soil-living organisms with the ability to infect and kill nematodes. These fungi have developed specialized infection structures for the capture of nematodes. Many nematode species are parasites on plants and animals, which have resulted in an interest to use nematode-trapping fungi as biological control agents. Through bioinformatics approaches, I have used

The interaction between starch and the whey proteins b-lactoglobulin and a-lactalbumin was examined in model systems. The change in thermal transitions (gelatinisation of starch, retrogradation of starch and melting of the amylose-lipid complex) on addition of various whey protein concentrations was studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The gelatinisation of starch was not influenc

This study investigates the relationship between prosody and information/discourse structure in spon- taneous spoken folk tales in the tonal Mon-Khmer language Northern Kammu, a language that behaves as a typical phrase language where available boun- dary tones are enhanced to mark information struc- turing. Topic is always placed before Comment by syntactic movement if necessary. There is a proso

Detta kapitel diskuterar om vad som gör det möjligt för Helsingborg att kalla sig för en kontinental stad i sin marknadsföring (mot framförallt övriga Sverige. Vad som lyfts fram i texten är till exempel topografi, den direkta närheten till hav i västerläge, närheten till Helsingör, det befolkningsrika omlandet, tegelarkitekturen, stadsbyggnadsideal, framgångsrika entreprenörer och inflyttning.
