Evaluation, prioritization and selection of candidate requirements are of tremendous importance and impact for subsequent software development. Effort, time as well as quality constraints have to be taken into account. Typically, different stakeholders have conflicting priorities and the requirements of all these stakeholders have to be balanced in an appropriate way to ensure maximum value of the

The Atlantic auk assemblage includes four extant species, razorbill (Alca torda), dovekie (Alle alle), common murre (Uria aalge), and thick-billed murre (U. lomvia), and one recently extinct species, the flightless great auk (Pinguinus impennis). To determine the phylogenetic relationships among the species, a contiguous 4.2-kb region of the mitochondrial genome from the extant species was amplifi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Principen för biologisk vattenreningsteknik är att mikroorganismer används för att bryta ner olika typer av föroreningar. Då det finns en stor mängd olika sorters mikroorganismer, kan flera typer av nedbrytningsmekanismer och processutformningar utnyttjas för olika krav och syften. Nackdelen med biologisk vattenreningsteknik är dock att den är känslig för störningar ochThe aim of the thesis was to investigate how different abiotic and biotic parameters may affect microorganisms and the process performance in various biological wastewater treatment systems. The type of carbon source in the influent wastewater may have a profound effect on the composition and the activity of denitrifying activated sludge bacteria in nutrient removal. Of four investigated carbon s

The work presented in this dissertation is concerned with the microstructures and surface roughness of test slabs of Ti-6Al-4V produced by one of powder based Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique namely electron beam melting (EBM). The effects of process parameters of a EBM system and geometry factors of a EBM build such as slabs’ thickness and height etc. on the microstructure and the surface ro

The urbanization process today places high demands on our city planners to find the best practices and solutions for the transportation systems in our growing and crowded cities. The bike is seen as one of these solutions, but if the bike will have a functional role in our cities, we need to create accessible and available bicycle networks. This paper is based on a case study of Lund, a city where

Purpose: This paper aims to investigate the nature and dynamics of the interaction between university spin-offs (USOs) and academia. Design/methodology/approach: The theoretical framework is grounded in an interactive view based on the industrial marketing and purchasing literature on USOs and their development. The concepts of activity links, resource ties and actor bonds are used as a starting p

In response to social fragmentation and segregation, public space is increasingly conceived of as an instrument for fostering openness towards differences. Drawing on two recent public spaces—Superkilen in Copenhagen, Denmark, and Jubileumsparken in Gothenburg, Sweden—this article explores the ethical potential of two different design approaches to the sharing of public space—designing for an ethi

Temporal genomic data hold great potential for studying evolutionary processes such as speciation. However, sampling across speciation events would, in many cases, require genomic time series that stretch well back into the Early Pleistocene subepoch. Although theoretical models suggest that DNA should survive on this timescale1, the oldest genomic data recovered so far are from a horse specimen d

The relationship between the evolutionary dynamics observed in contemporary populations (microevolution) and evolution on timescales of millions of years (macroevolution) has been a topic of considerable debate. Historically, this debate centers on inconsistencies between microevolutionary processes and macroevolutionary patterns. Here, we characterize a striking exception: emerging evidence indic

This chapter explores the evolution and effectiveness of Sweden's climate policy mix for decarbonizing the transport sector—a major contributor to national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Despite early leadership in climate policy, Sweden faces challenges in aligning policy implementation with ambitious goals, such as a 70 % reduction in transport emissions by 2030. The chapter shows that Sweden's

We present FACT, a method for predicting alignment quality (i.e., registration error) of registered lidar point cloud pairs. This is useful e.g. for quality assurance of large, automatically registered 3D models. FACT extracts local features from a registered pair and processes them with a point transformer-based network to predict a misalignment class. We generalize prior work that study binary a

This article explores how quantitative organological analysis can be implemented alongside historical musicology to help stimulate creativity in performance practice while promoting a diversity of timbre that is often lost amidst the hegemonic propagation of homogenized, normalized modern musical instruments. The tuba family provides an insightful case study demonstrating how the history and devel

Denna uppsats undersöker gränsdragningsproblematiken mellan inkomstslaget tjänst och näringsverksamhet vid utövandet av hobbyverksamhet. Med hjälp av den rättsdogmatiska metoden har lagtext, förarbeten, rättspraxis och doktrin undersökts för att fastställa gällande rätt. Gränsen för när en verksamhet klassificeras som hobby respektive näringsverksamhet är i många fall svår att avgöra. Huruvida en

Nocturnal hawkmoths are known for impressive visually guided behaviours in dim light, such as hovering while feeding from nectar-bearing flowers. This requires tight visual feedback to estimate and counter relative motion. Discrimination of low velocities, as required for stable hovering flight, is fundamentally limited by spatial resolution, yet in the evolution of eyes for nocturnal vision, main

Companies today are forced to expand and position outside their borders. The Öresund region is a common labor market for Swedes and Danes. Since 2000, with the opening of the Öresund Bridge, circumstances have improved for the region's business climate which is in a strong growth. Both Swedish and Danish companies are working across borders to take advantage of the region's dynamic and suc

Line segments are ubiquitous in our human-made world and are increasingly used in vision tasks. They are complementary to feature points thanks to their spatial extent and the structural information they provide. Traditional line detectors based on the image gradient are extremely fast and accurate, but lack robustness in noisy images and challenging conditions. Their learned counterparts are more

The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate parents’ experiences and satisfaction with family-centered care (FCC)when their child was cared for at a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). To obtain a deeper understanding of parents’experiences and satisfaction, two qualitative studies were conducted (Papers I and III). For Paper I, 10 individualinterviews were conducted two years after their

Security and sustainability are prioritized goals in the “Western liberal” world. Maintaining democratic resources while simultaneously strengthening society’s ability to deal with security issues firmly resonates with ideals associated with social sustainability. However, merging normative theories like security and social sustainability produces conceptual difficulties that are hard to resolve.
