This paper presents an investigation concerning the introduction of Extreme Programming (XP) in software development organisations. More specifically the concept of using a decision support method known as the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is evaluated by a group of students and a group of developers and the outcome is compared to experiences from an XP case study. The results provide an indi
Traditionally humanitarian organisations have based warehouse locations on individuals’ experience and knowledge, rather than decision support tools such as network optimisation models. This paper presents a study undertaken for UNHCR aiming to develop an applicable warehouse location support tool by considering the most relevant contextual factors.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen beskriver en ny typ av kompakt röntgenkälla baserad på ett laser-producerat plasma (LPP). I motsats till konventionella LPP används inte fasta material som strålmål för den fokuserade laserstrålen. I stället används mikroskopiska vätskedroppar eller vätskestrålar. Detta medför en mycket väsentlig minskning av det skräp (debris) som skickas ut från plasmat. A new high-brightness source for soft X-rays and EUV-radiation has been developed. This laser-plasma source utilizes a microscopic liquid droplet or jet as target. The result is a reduction of debris emission by several orders of magnitude compared to conventional laser plasmas. The minute amounts of residual ionic/atomic debris can be obstructed by filters or a localized gas shield. Target liquid
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are promising to improve energy efficiency and coverage for 6G [1]. In this paper, we aim to optimize the deployment of BSs and RISs for enhanced coverage in terms of received power. Specifically, an active RIS structure [2] with tuneable power amplification is applied, and a framework of mixed integer linear programming (MILP) is proposed for the optimiz
Current precision cancer medicine is dependent on the analyses of a plethora of clinically relevant genomic aberrations. During the last decade, next-generation sequencing (NGS) has gradually replaced most other methods for precision cancer diagnostics, spanning from targeted tumor-informed assays and gene panel sequencing to global whole-genome and whole-transcriptome sequencing analyses. The shi
Instruments and tables in Regiomontanus’ calendar published in 1474 are analysed and explained. It is shown that Regiomontanus used the Alfonsine Tables corrected for the longitude time difference between Toledo and Nuremberg. It is also shown that for the syzygy and eclipse times he used apparent solar times. The syzygy tables of George Peurbach may have been used to correct from mean to true syz
The 7th International Workshop on Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality for Human-Robot Interaction (VAM-HRI) seeks to bring together researchers from human-robot interaction (HRI), robotics, and mixed reality (MR) to address the challenges related to mixed reality interactions between humans and robots. Key topics include the development of robots capable of interacting with humans in mixed reali
BACKGROUND: Recurrent stroke is a frequent, disabling event after ischemic stroke. This study compared the efficacy and safety of two antiplatelet regimens--aspirin plus extended-release dipyridamole (ASA-ERDP) versus clopidogrel.METHODS: In this double-blind, 2-by-2 factorial trial, we randomly assigned patients to receive 25 mg of aspirin plus 200 mg of extended-release dipyridamole twice daily
