Communication over the copper twisted-pair channel is performed by transmitting and receiving differential-mode (DM) signals. In this paper, we extend the conventional DM receive scheme by incorporating the common-mode (CM) signal, which can be extracted at the end of every wire pair. We assess the potential of this idea for digital subscriber line systems (xDSL) in terms of channel capacity using

The purpose of this paper is to formulate an optimization model for the production scheduling problem at continuous production sites. The production scheduling activity should produce a monthly schedule that accounts for orders and forecasts of all products. The plan should be updated every day, with feedback on the actual production the previous day. The actual daily production may be lower than

This book explores the roles of religion in the current refugee crisis of Europe. Combining sociological, philosophical, and theological accounts of what is commonly considered a crisis, renowned scholars from across Europe examine how religion has been employed to call either for eliminating or for enforcing the walls around “Fortress Europe”. Religion, they argue, is radically ambiguous, simulta

BACKGROUND: Randomized controlled trials relatively consistently show that restrictive red blood cell (RBC) transfusion strategies are safe and associated with similar outcomes compared to liberal transfusion strategies in critically ill patients. Based on these data, the general threshold for RBC transfusion was changed to 70 g/L at a 9-bed tertiary level intensive care unit in September 2020. Im

Although digital technology (DT) is often introduced with the aim of enhancing organizational knowledge transfer and learning, these aims often fail to materialize. The information systems (IS) literature attributes such unexpected outcomes to inappropriate technology design and implementation, as well as to overuse, misuse, and non-use of technology. However, we know little about how actors misus

This thesis analyses how cosmetic brands construct brand purpose in their external communication and how such communication contributes to organisational legitimacy. It approaches brand purpose as a communicative practice through which brands link their identity, values and activities to broader social, ethical and environmental issues. The cosmetics industry is relevant because beauty brands do n

Målet med detta projekt är att designa en produkt som använder sig av MOLLE-system, ett modulärt bärsystem utvecklat av USAs armé. Systemet används för att fästa fickor till ryggsäckar, västar och annan utrustning. Dessa fickor är huvudsakligen designade för militär användning, för att hålla utrustning såsom magasin, granater, etc. Mitt mål är att applicera systemet i en civili kontext, med sammThe goal of this project is to design a product utilizing the MOLLE-system, a modular load-carrying system developed by the US army. The system is used to attach pouches to backpacks, vests and other gear. These pouches are mainly designed for military use, to hold gear such as magazines, grenades, etc. My goal is to use the system in a civilian context, with the same purpose as the US army’s, t

This paper deals with the peritoneal microcirculation and with peritoneal exchange occurring in peritoneal dialysis (PD). The capillary wall is a major barrier to solute and water exchange across the peritoneal membrane. There is a bimodal size-selectivity of solute transport between blood and the peritoneal cavity, through pores of radius approximately 40-50 A as well as through a very low number

Parentage of 201 young (from 44 broods) in a population of Sedge Warblers Acrocephalus schoenobaenus in South Central Sweden, 1990-1992, was determined by using multilocus DNA fingerprinting. The frequency of extra-pair young (EPY) was 7.5% and they occurred in 23% of the broods. For 11 out of 15 extra-pair young we could identify the true father; in all of the cases he was a close neighbour. Amon

This study focusses on the urban infrastructure for water supply in Roman Pompeii. The water distribution network of lead pipes was constructed inside the city walls, at the time when the city was connected to an aqueduct. Life for the Pompeiians changed considerably when aqueduct water started running continuously in street fountains all around the city. The study is based on previous research an

A series of studies pertaining to the STIC calorimeter at the DELPHI experiment at LEP is presented, and a new generation of fast wire scanners for emittance measurements at PS is described. The STIC studies are centered around a single-photon analysis, in which the reaction e+ e- -> gamma + invisible particles was studied at center-of-mass energies of 161, 172 and 183 GeV. The cross section thus
