Instance-aware assemblies of services in pervasive computing

With computers embedded almost everywhere, in domestic, industrial, and medical appliances and devices, computing is becoming increasingly pervasive. Services in pervasive systems can be combined and coordinated through user-defined scripts called assemblies, a light-weight and understandable way for end users to adapt services to fit their specific needs. Previous languages for assembly scripts

The double lysine motif of tapasin is a retrieval signal for retention of unstable MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum

Tapasin (tpn), an essential component of the MHC class I (MHC I) loading complex, has a canonical double lysine motif acting as a retrieval signal, which mediates retrograde transport of escaped endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins from the Golgi back to the ER. In this study, we mutated tpn with a substitution of the double lysine motif to double alanine (GFP-tpn-aa). This mutation abolished inter

High-spin study of rotational structures in Br-72

High-spin states in Br-72(35)37 were studied using the Ca-40(Ar-36,3pn) reaction. The existing level scheme has been significantly modified and extended. Evidence has been found for a spin reassignment of -1h to the previously observed negative-parity band, which carries implications for the interpretation of a signature inversion in this structure. One signature of the previously assigned positiv

Influence of FK506 on certain aspects of lymphocyte activation and lymphocyte-endothelial cell interactions in vitro

In the present thesis, the influence of the immunosuppressive drug FK506 on mitogen-induced changes in the expression of subunits a and ß of the IL-2 receptor by isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells has been studied. Up-regulation and release of the a-chain were potently depressed by FK506, even in the presence of exogenous IL-2. In contrast, up-regulation of the ß-chain on these same

Quantitative WinWin - a new method for decision support in requirements negotiation

Defining, prioritizing, and selecting requirements are problems of tremendous importance. In this paper, a new approach called Quantitative WinWin for decision support in requirements negotiation is studied. The difference to Boehm's WinWin groupware-based negotiation support is the inclusion of quantitative methods as a backbone for better and more objective decisions. Like Boehm's original WinWi

Why Women Ask for Less Salary than Men : Mediation of Stereotype Threat in Salary Negotiations

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kvinnor begär lägre lön än män i löneförhandlingar. Könsskillnader i förhandlingsprestation har nyligen förklarats som en stereotyphotseffekt. Enligt stereotype threat theory kan prestationen hos negativt stereotyperade gruppmedlemmar tillfälligt försämras i kontexter där den negativa stereotypen är framträdande. Kvinnor stereotyperas som dåliga förhandlare, jämfört medWomen ask for less salary than men in negotiations. Sex differences in negotiating performance have recently been explained as stereotype threat effects. Stereotype threat theory states that the performance of negatively stereotyped group-members can suffer in contexts where the negative stereotype is salient. Women are stereo¬typed as bad negotiators, compared to men, and previous research has sh

Heat transfer in food processing - recent developments and applications

Heat transfer is one of the most important and most common engineering disciplines in food processing. There are many unit operations in the food industry where steady or unsteady state heat transfer is taking place. These operations are of primary importance and affect the design of equipment as well as safety, nutritional and sensory aspects of the product. The chapters in this book deal mainly

Our investigation of two EPR and waste management programs in California, U.S. revealed two common features: involvement of the state government is small, and the establishment of concrete recycling/waste management systems is to a large extent left in the hands of entities who have direct responsibility for their implementation. Based on the degree of government involvement, we categorized recycl

Natur och miljö - diskurs och materialitet

Var finns naturen och hur upplever vi den? Vad är meningen med naturen och hur skapas denna mening? Vad är skillnaden mellan natur och miljö och vad blir konsekvenserna om man tar fasta på hur denna skillnad uppstått? Detta är frågor som rör naturens kulturhistoria och kulturisering. Ur ett internationellt perspektiv har intresset för naturens kulturella konstruktion vuxit fram under de senaste de

Kampen om historien - Ådalen 1931 - Sociala konflikter, historiemedvetande och historiebruk 1931-2000

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns en skillnad mellan historia som vetenskap och historia som historiskt minne, som boken vill fästa uppmärksamhet på. Ådalen som motbild till det trygga Folkhemmet är en bild av hur vi kan uppleva verkligheten. Inte nödvändigtvis hur den såg ut. Vår uppfattning om vad som hänt kan vaa nog så verklig när vi handlar, agerar och tolkar omvärlden. Det är denna tolknThe prelude to this thesis is provided by the dramatic scenes that took place in Ådalen. During a demonstration, four men and one young woman were shot to death and five others injured by military troops ordered to Lunde harbour. Inspired by a number of other researchers (Koselleck, Samuel, Somers, Stråth, Södring, Jensen and Burke, to name a few), my investigation has analysed how the story of th
