Biological invasions offer fertile grounds for studying evolutionary ecology because species’ contact histories are uncharacteristically well-defined. As a result, invasions can be used to gain glimpses of the earliest micro-evolutionary responses of natural populations to new species’ interactions by studying changes in behaviour, physiology or morphology in space and time. Here, the known histor
I understand patronage principally as a work of cultural and material support - the support shich was necessary to stage the performance of a piece of music in mayn different contexts. I focus on the fate of an opera, Richard Wagner's Parsifal, a work which was not performed at the Bayreuth festival between 1939 and 1944 because of its emphasis on reconciliation, non-violence and faith, but which
This paper concerns the unifying framework to strictly contractive extension problems, which is usually referred to as the band method. The solution to the so-called strictly contractive extension problem in this abstract framework, when applied to a certain concrete case, yields a complete characterization of solutions to the sub-optimal Nehari problem. The sub-optimal Hankel norm approximation p
A common approach to distributed control design is to impose sparsity constraints on the controller structure. Such constraints, however, may greatly complicate the control design procedure. This paper promotes an alternative structure, which is not sparse, yet might nevertheless be well suited for distributed control purposes. The structure appears as the optimal solution to a class of coordinati
The purpose of this paper is to examine current practices of load factor utilisation of road transport. An interview study of five shippers and two transport providers were conducted. The research shows that transport providers seem to work efficiently with operational practices to improve the load factor, but the load factor seems not to be highly prioritised when it comes to strategic decisions.
The article investigates the relationship between Sweden and the Ottoman Empire during the eighteenth century with a focus on the travelogue of Jacob Björnståhl.
I detta konferensbidrag beskriver jag ett exempel på hur IKT (Informations- och kommunikationsteknik) kan användas i litteraturundervisning på gymnasiet i Sverige på ett sätt som gör det möjligt för eleverna att bli mer aktiva producenter av kunskap i en flexibel inlärningsmiljö samtidigt som man främjar en globaliserad litteratursyn, särskilt vad gäller fransk litteratur, som går bortom nationensIn this paper I describe an example of how ICT (Information and communication technologies) can be used in teaching literature at upper secondary level in Sweden in a way that lets the pupils become more active producers of knowledge in a flexible learning environment and promotes a globalized view of literature, especially of French literature, which goes beyond the nation’s borders.
