In model-based development, floating-point arithmetic is typically used for computations in algorithms and models. However, on many target platforms, there is no support for floating-point computations due to constraints on, e.g., price, size, power consumption, and execution speed. A solution is to use fixed-point arithmetic instead. Manually transforming floating-point code to fixedpoint code is

I det svenska straffsystemet åtnjuter alla brottsliga gärningar ett straffvärde. Så även narkotikabrott. För snart ett år sedan, i juni 2011, avkunnade HD en dom som tydligt syftade till att ändra praxis avseende hur straffvärdet ska fastställas i narkotikamål. De två tilltalade som åtalet huvudsakligen avsåg dömdes av HovR till 14 års fängelse vardera. HD sänkte straffen till fyra års fängelse. EAccording to Swedish penal law all criminal offenses deserves a penal val-ue. So while drug offenses. Nearly a year ago, in June 2011, the Supreme Court gave a judgment that was clearly aimed at changing practices in the assessment of the penal value of drug offenses. The two defendants in the indictment were each mainly sentenced by the Court of Appeals for 14 years in prison. The Supreme Court r

Av 3:3 första meningen ABL följer: ”Om bolagets verksamhet helt eller delvis skall ha ett annat syfte än att ge vinst till fördelning mellan aktieägarna, skall detta anges i bolagsordningen.” Vid en första anblick ter sig denna bestämmelse inte särskilt komplicerad. Ett aktiebolag drivs i syfte att ge vinst till fördelningen mellan aktieägarna om inget annat står i bolagsordningen. Det så kallaIn accordance to the main rule in 3:3 ABL, the aim of a corporation is to generate profit for distribution among the shareholders, unless otherwise is stated in the articles of association. The profit making purpose should prevail. At first glance, this regulation is not particularly complicated. 3:3 ABL is, however, the decision criterion that should permeate every decision that the company manag

Primarily due to a massively overburdened docket, the European Court of Human Rights has been experiencing major challenges in the last decade. The crisis has prompted it to modify its procedures and one recent innovation at the Court is the pilot judgment procedure, which is a tool for dealing with systemic deficiencies in the Member States. This thesis assesses what the effects of the pilot judg

INTRODUCTION In the last years a lot of researches about source separation have been realized, like extraction of a signal of interest (vocal recognition application), identification of which source gives which sound (motor engine applications) or noise source characterization (environmental application). Most of these techniques for sound source estimation use the signal-subspace approach, where

Issue of study: To be a well performing company over time, profitability and growth are considered the key strategic value drivers. Swedish and Finnish manufacturing companies are using different strategies to handle this challenge and some are performing better than others. In a world of globalization it is essential for the companies to remain competitive. Purpose: The purpose of this study is

Moatize district located in Tete province in the center of Mozambique has one of the largest unexploited coal deposits of the world with a capacity of 2.5 billions of tones. Recently many multinational coal mine companies started exploitation of coal in Moatize. Coal exploitation has economical, social and environmental impacts. The main environmental impact is generation of acid mine drainage (AM

Bakgrund: Preoperativ handdesinfektion är en viktig hörnsten för att upprätthålla den sterila miljön på operationssalen och förebygga uppkomsten av postoperativa infektioner. Det finns begränsad data angående operationspersonalens följsamhet till gällande riktlinjer för handhygien. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka operationspersonalens faktiska följsamhet till vårdhandbokens riktlinjer

The understanding of the genesis of life-threatening cancer and its invasion calls for urgent development of novel technologies for real-time observations, early diagnosis, and treatment. Quantum dots (QDs) grabbed the spotlight in oncology owing to their excellent photostability, bright fluorescence, high biocompatibility, good electrical and chemical stability with minimum invasiveness. Recently

Autoimmune murine disease models are vital tools for identifying novel targets and finding better treatments for human diseases. Complete Freund’s adjuvant is commonly used to induce disease in autoimmune models, and the quality of the adjuvant/autoantigen emulsion is of critical importance in determining reproducibility. We have established an emulsification method using a standard homogenizer an

Genom att öka handlingsutrymmet för medarbetarna i kärnuppdraget kan offentlig sektor bli mer effektiv och serviceinriktad. Grunden är en styrning som präglas av tillit och lyhördhet. Tillit är nödvändigt för att vårt samhälle ska stå starkt och för att statliga myndigheter, kommuner och regioner ska lyckas med sina uppdrag. Men hur bygger vi tilliten?I den här boken får du en introduktion till hu

This paper explores how urban Destination Management Organisations (DMOs) in Sweden, have understood their communicative role, developed communicative strategies and tactics during the COVID-19 pandemic. The overall aim of this research is to develop understanding of the role of communication strategies for developing urban destination resilience. This study is conducted in collaboration with the

Smart cities and 3D printing technologies are attracting unprecedented attention with signs that they will be key drivers of societal and economic change. Yet, the connection in how 3D printing can enhance smart cities remains understudied. To this end, this paper argues that 3D printing has widespread applications across higher education and smart city settings through the opening and democratizi

Cities have been wildly successful over recent years in positioning themselves at the center of the global conversation on climate change. For example, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently convened the Cities & Climate Change Conference (CitiesIPCC) in Edmonton, Alberta. The conference — hosted by a city that once advertised itself as Canada’s oil capital — brought tog

Wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in the human aorta is a highly interesting hemodynamic factor for atherosclerosis development. We present a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based subject specific WSS estimation method and demonstrate it on a group of nine healthy volunteers (males age 23.6 ± 1.3 years). In all nine subjects, the aortic blood flow was sim

Motivated by a need to characterize transient behaviors in large network systems in terms of relevant signal norms and worst-case input scenarios, we propose a novel approach based on existing theory for matrix pseudospectra. We extend pseudospectral theorems, pertaining to matrix exponentials, to an input-output setting, where matrix exponentials are pre- and post-multiplied by input and output m
