Dataflow programming is a paradigm for describing stream processing algorithms in a manner that naturally exposes their concurrency and makes the resulting programs readily implementable on highly parallel architectures. Dataflow programs are graph structured, with nodes representing computational kernels that process the data flowing over the edges. There are two major families of languages for t
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
Birgitta of Sweden (Birgitta Birgersdotter, 1302/03-1373) and her younger contemporary Catherine of Siena (Caterina Benincasa, 1347-1380) form the most powerful and influential female duo in European history. Both enjoyed saintly reputations in life, while acting as the charismatic leaders of a considerable group of followers consisting of clergy as well as mighty secular men and women. They are a
Purpose: This article aims to illustrate diffractive vignettes as a methodology to extend current communicative and performative approaches. We engage with the critical ethical- onto-epistemological underpinnings of diffraction and explore how it can sensitize communicative research (in particular within the Montréal School (TMS) of CCO scholarship) to processes of materialization - what comes to
Abstract in FrenchSelon l’hypothèse du “Penser-pour-parler” (Thinking-for-speaking ou TFS), les locuteurs delangues différentes n’organiseraient pas leur pensée de la même manière lors de la préparationmentale de leurs productions. L’objectif de cet article est de proposer une discussion critiquedes travaux effectués dans le paradigme du TFS, à partir des principes de base établis par cecadre théoAccording to the thinking-for-speaking (TFS) hypothesis, speakers of different languages think differently while in the process of mentally preparing content for speech. The aim of the present paper is to critically discuss the research carried out within the TFS paradigm, against the background of the basic tenets laid out by the proponents of this framework. We will show that despite substantial
We investigate self-heating in vertical, gate-all-around III-V InAs/InGaAs nanowire MOSFETs using pulsed IV measurements at various temperatures. Low temperature measurements reveal a negative output conductance indicating self-heating in the transistor. Under pulsed measurements, an increase in drain current (15%) and transconductance (30%) are observed at room temperature, with values influenced
Kemisk vittring kallas processen när mineralkorn löses upp och sönderdelas i molekyler eller atomer. Det är en viktig process, bland annat för att den frigör ämnen som skyddar marken från försurning och som fungerar som näringsämnen för växter. För de så kallade baskatjonerna kalium, kalcium, magnesium och natrium är vittringen i marken bland de största källorna. Framför allt de tre förstnämnda baBase cations are important in forest soils as nutrients for vegetation and protection against soil acidification. Today, base cations have been lost from soils through acidification and forest harvesting. With low levels in soils, temporary situations of deficiency could occur. One of the largest inputs of base cations to soils is minerals weathering, which makes it an important process. It is, ho
X-ray Fluorescence microscopy is a sophisticated advanced technique which can provide information regarding the concentration and the distribution of chemical elements within biological samples. It is increasingly used in the study of cells and tissues as it does not require the use of staining or fluorescent probes. For XRF measurements, sample preparation is a key step in the analytical process
In order to increase the use of sustainable energy in Sweden, it is necessary to substitute fossil energy carriers with renewable counterparts. Synthetic natural gas (SNG) produced from renewable resources via biomass gasification and methanation could replace a proportion of the natural gas used in Sweden. In order to facilitate the implementation and expansion of SNG production and use in Sweden
In the ActivAbles and STARR projects we are developing interactive training tools for stroke survivors. As our initial user studies pointed to balance being a key ability, one of the developed tools is an interactive balance mat. While balance equipment is common, interactive balancing equipment for persons with poor balance is less common. Equipment exists for persons with good balance (eg. Wii),
Researches on the modeling of machining difficult-to-cut metals are important for optimization of the processing parameters, in which the force modeling is essential due to its significant influence on the performance of tools and the quality of parts. A semi-analytical method for force prediction in orthogonal cutting with chamfered tools considering both edge and size effect is proposed in this
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
The highest-spin discrete states (I ∼ 60 ℏ and Ex ∼ 30 MeV) in normal deformed nuclei have been observed in the rare-earth isotope 156Dy using the 124Sn(36S,4n) reaction in conjunction with the GAMMASPHERE spectrometer. The positive parity yrast sequence appears to evolve smoothly from a prolate (collective) towards an oblate (non-collective) shape, in contrast to the sudden shape change observed
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
This thesis investigates the possibility of the mediated city providing a space for resistance in everyday life in a society where free speech channels are strictly controlled. The case studied in this thesis is the phenomenon of a group of fans of a singer who has been banned by the government in mainland China writing graffiti in public urban space on Rehe Road in Nanjing to express their love a
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur psykoterapeuter upplever att de skapar allians med barn i åldern 6–12 år, samt med deras vårdnadshavare. Metoden som användes var en kvalitativ tematisk analys och semi-strukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med sex psykoterapeuter från två olika delar av Sverige. Psykoterapeuterna var antingen anställda vid BUP eller Första Linjen. Fynden av studien visThe purpose of this study was to examine how psychotherapists view and how they create alliances with children who are of the age group 6-12 years old, and with their legal guardians. The chosen method was that of a qualitative thematic analysis, using semi-structured interviews with six different psychotherapists from two different parts of Sweden. The psychotherapists were all employed at either
