The making of artefacts is a core activity in society, the result of which contributes to the building up of our physical surroundings and material culture. Throughout history, craft skills have been highly appreciated and have often been seen as crucial component of a capable human. Despite this, the knowledge base that constitutes the actual making is often overlooked in research. In this sessio

The European Spallation Source (ESS) is an intergovernmental project building amultidisciplinary research laboratory based upon the worlds most powerful neutron source. The main facility will be built in Lund, Sweden. Construction is expected to start around 2013 and the first neutrons will be produced in 2019. The ESS linac will deliver 5 MW of power to the target at 2.5 GeV, with a nominal curre

Ny rättspraxis från EG-domstolen i fallen Köbler och Kühne & Heitz har visat att domstolen är beredd att etablera rättsprinciper som kommer göra det möjligt att på ett effektivt sätt hantera missbruket av acte clair-doktrinen. I det förstnämnda fallet, etablerade domstolen en möjlighet att utkräva skadeståndsansvar av medlemsstaten i det fall den nationella sista instansrätten (in casu den hög

Two eye-tracking experiments were carried out to examine the effects of eye movements in relation to the detection and non-detection of contextually congruent and incongruent antonyms such as high–low, good–bad. Experiment 1: First fixation durations on the incongruent word (p<0.01) were significantly shorter than for congruent words for detected incongruities, suggesting that language processing

This paper describes a case study at an automotive company with the purpose ov developing an economically based decision support tool, for strategic decision about wheather to chose grinding or shaving as a finishing method in gear manufacturing. In the study different cost models are compared regarding input parameters in alignment with the required input data required to make a decision. With th

We present a novel architecture for flexible control of shading rates in a GPU pipeline, and demonstrate substantially reduced shading costs for various applications. We decouple shading and visibility by restricting and quantizing shading rates to a finite set of screen-aligned grids, leading to simpler and fewer changes to the GPU pipeline compared to alternative approaches. Our architecture int

This paper presents the concepts of model-based course assessments. This involves a mathematical model to define the grading scheme of a course, based on a set of items to be scored. We report lessons learned from using this approach. An important conclusion is that model-based assessment promotes clear definitions of assessment criteria.
