Att den kunskap som produceras innanför laboratoriet inte utan vidare kan överföras till omvärlden, att det snarare uppstår en rad informationsglapp, problematiseras i artikeln. Lundin utgår från samtalen i en diskussionsgrupp med biomedicinska forskare där avsikten är att resonera om medicin och etik. Gruppen utgör en metodologisk ingång för att fånga vad som händer i gränslandet mellan enskilda

Much like the way we distinguish between formalism and experimentalism, we distinguish between ascertainment by proof and ascertainment by measurement. We argue that quantum mechanics, which characteristically encompasses both kinds of ascertainment, is too complex to be fully captured by formalism alone, and needs relativization to language in its complementaristic conception. In particular, we a

Popular Abstract in SwedishI denna licentiatavhandling undersöks för det första de redskap för atthantera historia som samhället vill att eleverna skall tillgodogöra sig. För det andra kastar den ljus över i vilken utsträckning eleverna ges möjlighet att tillgodogöra sig dessa redskap. I undersökningen jämförs lärares skriftliga instruktioner för insamlande av bedömningsunderlag, till exempel provIn this licentiate thesis is the focus is on what tools for handling historical information that is mentioned in the standards for history education in the Swedish upper-secondary school. To what extent these tools are made available for the students by their teachers is also investigated. That is done, by looking at teachers assessment materials. The results show a very low degree of alignment be

This handbook was developed to assist water users identify and prioritize cost-effective water efficiency opportunities. It targets water use in residential and commercial buildings, industrial plants, and agricultural farms. The handbook offers practical and proven methods to cut water consumption, and water costs, without sacrificing production, reliability, orcomfort. By making this handbook av

Afterword to the drama "Tidblad-variationerna" by Swedish writer Per Svenson (b. 1941). The afterword introuduces the work of Svenson and discusses shortly the position of actress Inga Tidblad (1901 - 1975) within Swedish culture.

In many Voice over IP (VoIP) systems, the end-to-end voice Quality of Service (QoS) is largely dictated by the packet loss rate and the Packet Loss Concealment (PLC) method at the receiver. Typical PLC algorithms are usually based on simple signal extrapolation methods that can produce perceptually annoying artifacts. We present a taxonomy of PLC artifacts that degrade voice quality, and demonstra

To accurately model the effect on the dynamic behavior of a floor when using glue in the joints between the chipboards and beams in a lightweight structure can be a daunting task. It is however important to have a model that can simulate these junctions with high fidelity. The behavior of T-junctions with different geometries and methods of adhesion has been previously investigated via measurement

The concept of a holistic innovation policy is defined in this paper, and it is discussed what it is, why it is relevant and how it can be implemented. One of the main conclusions is that the innovation policies in European countries are still linear (and not holistic), in spite of the fact that the linear view has been completely abandoned by innovation researchers - and replaced by a systemic vi

The paper is devoted to modeling and optimization of reliable wireless mesh networks that employ directional antennas. We introduce two mixed-integer programming formulations that allow to simultaneously characterize routing patterns and transmission schedules. The first model allows for maximizing the minimal flow in a network. The second model involves reliability constraints and aims at minimiz

The greater cities’ outer transitional zones are ephemeral and dynamic. With Malmö (Sweden) as an example this paper discusses how coastal and agricultural landscapes in the urban fringe can develop into something new and closer to actual needs of the inhabitants. This is done by opening up for a use of new concepts when describing these areas, for example among planners/designers and exploiters.
