The increasing use of wireless technology utilizing unlicensed frequency bands calls for more in-depth analysis of interference and coexistence between systems. In this paper a framework is presented for detailed analysis of the performance of coexisting networks in shared frequency bands. The framework allows for multiple packet lengths to be used by the communicating devices and the analysis is

There are many reasons why heat transfer and heat exchangers play a key role in the development of sustainable energy systems as well as in the reduction of emissions and pollutants. In general, all attempts to achieve processes and thermodynamic cycles with high efficiency, low emissions, low costs include heat transfer and heat exchangers to a large extent. It is known that sustainable energy de

This paper presents a more efficient model for thesis supervision compared to prevalent practice in many departments within the Humanities.

Using an exact circuit analogy for the scattering of vector spherical waves, it is shown how the problem of determining the optimal scattering bounds for a homogeneous sphere in its high-contrast limit is identical to the closely related, and yet very different problem of finding the broadband tuning limits of the spherical waves. Using integral relations similar to Fano's broadband matching bound

Innovation och utveckling är viktigt för en dynamisk samhällsutveckling. Immaterialrättslig ensamrätt gör att individer och företag vågar satsa på nya idéer och under hela 1900-talet har skyddet successivt förstärkts. Lagstiftningsarbete pågår i det enskilda landet, på EG-nivå, men också internationellt. Det finns dock anledning att fråga sig om utvecklingen ibland drivs så hårt att andra väsentli

Focusing on the concept of competence, the paper proposes that the concept itself is engendered, i.e., it is a concept that is defined in male terms. As such it functions to define women as a group as lacking or devoid of the traits, characteristics and/or behaviors that are necessary for being "seen" and being perceived of as competent in educational settings and on the labour market. The paper i

Over the past few decades, the literature on agency autonomy has increased rapidly. It still struggles, however, to find solid evidence for specific factors explaining variations in autonomy. This paper argues that a reason for this is basic assumptions in this line of research, and more specifically the tendency to focus on factors on the collective level. Using the distinction between methodolog
