Digital subscriber lines (DSL) are today one of the most important means for delivering high-speed data transmission. An emerging technique for dealing with one of the technology's most harmful problems, crosstalk, is dynamic spectrum management (DSM). DSM literature already counts with some half a dozen important solutions. These solutions can be classified according to four different aspects: op

The planning of facilities to improve the environment is often carried through in the form of locally based construction projects. These projects can be complex, involving a variety of issues and a number of different actors from both the public and private sectors. By drawing on previous research on project planning, an analytical model for analysing the issues connected with the planning and imp

In order to obtain the maximum efficiency from a hybrid driveline it is crucial to optimize the power distribution between the electric drive and the internal combustion engine. An accurate estimation of how much electric power can be delivered at any instant of time is therefore of great interest. Such estimation is dependent on several factors, as the state of charge of the battery, the temperat

The rapid development of the technology of today increasingly involves the design and fabrication of devices of smaller and smaller dimensions, down to the atomic length scales. At the nanoscale molecular dynamic (MD) models are often used. For many but the smallest systems, MD models are computationally too expensive, whereas classical continuum mechanics models not accurately can resolve microsc

Electromagnetic vector spherical waves have been used recently to model antenna channel interaction and the available degrees of freedom in MIMO systems. However, there are no previous accounts of a method to estimate spherical wave coefficients from channel measurements. One approach, using a 3D positioner, is presented in this letter, both in theory and practice. Measurement results are present

We consider load balancing on a network. Servers of limited bandwidth move a single commodity through a network of buffers (or queues) while external random processes generate and consume this commodity. Our contribution is a distributed algorithm for regulating the backlogs of these queues to a given reference while balancing the mean flow in the network. We formulate this as a fluid buffer regu
