Wireless communication systems are by nature and by regulations limited in bandwidth and hence capacity. Services with high demands on quality of service (QoS) will enforce high demands on the available capacity. This observation motivates the development of schedulers that can deliver the required QoS as well as being resource efficient. In this paper, we provide expressions of the worst case del

This article reflects on the theme of negativity and destruction in twentieth century art, particularly in the art of Gustav Metzger.

Popular Abstract in Swedish I detta avhandlingsarbete studerades mekanismer underliggande utveckling av multipel organdysfunktion (MODS), med fokusering på intercellulär proinflammatorisk reglering och adhesionmolekylers roll vid den fortsatta utvecklingen av organskada samt att studera eventuella organspecifika skillnader. Målsättningen var att finna nya behandlingar och prevention mot utvecklingIntestinal I/R is considered to be an important initiating event in several pathophysiological conditions such as trauma, bleeding, sepsis and pancreatitis, frequently leading to concomitant both single and potentially multiple organ dysfunction. The purpose of this thesis was to study mechanims underlying the development of multiple organ dysfunction, with special focus on intercellular proinflam

Popular Abstract in Swedish Knäartros är en mycket vanlig sjukdom som leder till successiv nedbrytning och förlust av brosket i leden, en process som oftast tar 10-20 år. Detta orsakar svår smärta och stelhet och i dag saknas botande behandling mot artros. Det är dock rimligt att anta att en behandling har bättre förutsättningar att lyckas ju tidigare den sätts in. Man vet att det tidigt under sjuDelayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage (dGEMRIC) is a new technique to study cartilage glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content. The negatively charged contrast agent Gd-DTPA2-, injected intravenously, distributes in the cartilage inversely to the likewise negatively charged GAG. The GAG concentration is reflected by the MRI parameter T1 and the Gd-DTPA2- concentration by the MRI parameter R1 (R1=1/T

Yta är, paradoxalt nog, ofta något grundläggande i receptet för framgång i dagens ekonomiska system. Utseende, klädsel, attityd och attribut är centrala element i det som Erving Goffman kallar impression management: förmågan att avge ”rätt” intryck med hjälp av välformulerade självpresentationer som, baserade på statussymboler och associationer, indikerar vem man är eller vill vara (se Goffman 195

This talk contains a short overview of the history of the interplay of the weak and the strong interaction and CP-violation. It describes the phenomenology and the basic physics mechanisms involved in the standard model calculations of K→ππ decays with an emphasis on the evaluation of penguin operator matrix-elements

A cylindrical bushing subjected to a stationary cyclic load is analysed with emphasis on the amplitude and frequency dependent damping and modulus. The material parameters were determined from a dynamic shear test, in terms of a viscoelastic-elastoplastic model. Using an overlay of finite element meshes, the material model was implemented in a finite element model of the cylindrical bushing and su
