Memory compilers are typically intellectual property of memory vendors. The purpose of compilers is to automatically generate various kinds of memories depending on the customer order. These compilers support the generation of various memory capacities as well as static random-access memory (SRAM) types, e.g., single- and dual-port memories. Discrepancy between the customers requirements and vendo

Dagens mixerteknik baserad på kiseltransistorer börjar närma sig en punkt där det inte går att öka prestandan i någon högre utsträckning och därmed behövs en ersättare. Här har vi undersökt hur vi med hjälp av aktiv last och nanotrådstransistorer kan utveckla den traditionella Gilbertcellsmixern.Abstract A center point in the transistor research is to find a successor to the silicon-based transistors that are mainly used in today’s industry. III-V Field Effect Transistors (FET) have been the transistor of choice for many researchers for a long time but other options are interesting as well. The aim of this thesis is to show what a mixer circuit based on Nanowire transistors can achieve wh

Varför bor människor i högriskområden? -En intervjustudie i översvämningsdrabbade Akuressa, Sri Lanka. Svaret på denna frågar har visat sig vara mer komplex än vad man kanske tror och det är svårt att lyfta enskilda, isolerade anledningar. Frågan bör istället besvaras utifrån ett helhetsperspektiv. Kunskap kring detta anses viktig för att kunna implementera lämpliga åtgärder och förbättra situatA qualitative field study, based on Grounded Theory methodology, has been conducted in the areas around Akuressa in southern Sri Lanka. The method for data collection consisted mainly of semi-structured interviews with local residents. The purpose of the study was to evaluate why people live in high-risk areas. The aim was to do this by looking beyond the purely physical aspect of living with haza

Family related chracteristics are important determinants of individual outcomes. Also, fertility is a process closely related to development. As part of a body of literature investigating the effect of family size on schooling, this study develops an estimation using data for Colombia during 2010 to 2013. Building on exogenous variation in the number of siblings using multiple births and preferenc

China is getting old. During the past decades, strict population control has lead to an exceptional increase in the old-age dependency ratio - the number of elderly in relation to the number of working age individuals. In light of shifting demographics, as well as retirees' general tendency towards declining health, this thesis studies health-seeking behavior amongst retirees in China. The stu

The sustainability of biofuels has been a topic gaining recognition in the European Union’s policy making during recent years. Simultaneously, scholars have observed the use of new and indirect modes of governance in the EU, used to complement its habitual regulatory approach. On this basis, this thesis examines the European Commission’s governance of biofuels between 2003 and 2009. It aims to exa

With the development of low energy buildings in Northern European countries, conflicts regarding balancing daylight and energy performances in buildings arise. Therefore, design solutions that balance daylight and energy performances in buildings are needed. MKB Greenhouse is a newly-built, Miljöbyggnad Gold and Feby-Passive House certified, multi-family housing in Malmö, Sweden. Greenhouse also e

En privatperson eller ett företag som vill köpa försäkring kan vända sig till en försäkringsförmedlare för att få hjälp med att hitta lämpligt försäkringsskydd. Försäkringstagare befinner sig ofta i ett kunskapsmässigt underläge i förhållande till försäkringsförmedlare och det är därför viktigt att det ställs krav på försäkringsförmedlare. Det är dock viktigt att de krav som ställs är tydliga, så An individual or a company that wants to purchase insurance can turn to an insurance broker to acquire an adequate insurance coverage. Since the policyholder often holds less knowledge relative the insurance broker, it is important that there are requirements on insurance brokers’ role as a consultant. The requirements must however be explicit, in order for insurance brokers to be able to follow t

Föreskriften om nödvärn finns i 24 kap. 1 § brottsbalken (BrB). Bestämmelsen anger att den som är föremål för ett brottsligt angrepp har rätt att försvara sig. Denna försvarsrätt inträder redan då ett brottsligt angrepp är överhängande. Den angripne är således på ett relativt tidigt stadium berättigad att vidta försvarsåtgärder. För att en gärning som begås i en nödvärnssituation ska vara rättsenlAccording to Chapter 24 paragraph 1 of the Swedish Penal Code a person who is subject to an impending or an embarked criminal attack has a right to protect himself by using self-defence. The fact that this right arises already when a criminal attack is impending means that the person who is subject to the attack has the right to defend himself at a quite early stage. An act committed in a self-def

The fluttering shearwater (Puffinus gavia) is an abundant seabird endemic to breeding colonies in northern and central New Zealand. The species remains poorly studied, and here we present the first study to examine its breeding biology in detail. Fluttering shearwater nests were monitored daily from laying in September 2015 to fledging in January 2016 on Burgess Island (Mokohinau Islands group) in

We present the first study of the year-round distribution, activity patterns, and habitat use of one of New Zealand’s most common seabirds, the fluttering shearwater (Puffinus gavia). Seven individuals from Burgess Island and one individual from Long Island were successfully tracked with combined light-saltwater immersion loggers for one to three years. Our tracking data confirms that fluttering s

Farligt gods definieras som ett ämne eller föremål som på grund av dess beskaffenheter kan orsaka skada på person, egendom och miljö, exempelvis bensin, gasol och svavelsyra.

Migrationsrätten är ett område som till stor del är styrt av politiska intressen, och är därmed ett rättsområde som förändras ofta. Möjligheten för en asylsökande att beviljas uppehållstillstånd ställs mot samhällets intressen av reglering av invandring. Bestämmelsen om synnerligen ömmande omständigheter infördes i svensk lag år 2005. Den åsyftade att ge fler människor möjligheten till asyl, genomThe immigration law is a field, which is largely controlled by political interests, and is thereby a field of law that changes often. The possibility for an alien to be granted a residence permit stands against general interests, such as regulation of immigration. In the year of 2005 the provision of exceptionally distressing circumstances was introduced to Swedish law. The provision aimed to gi
