In recent times, the imminent lack of public IPv4 addresses has attracted the attention of both the research community and the industry. The problem becomes even more pressing with the introduction of third generation (3G) cellular networks which are predicted to introduce hundred of millions of new IP capable terminals over the next few years. The cellular industry has decided to combat this prob
Environmental policy is shifting the focus from production processes to product-related issues. The provision and use of environmental information is generally considered an essential element in addressing the environmental impacts associated with the life cycle of products. Environmental product declarations (EPD) are one of the much promoted informative instruments. A wide range of self-declarat
In this article, Oevdalian referential null subjects are introduced and analysed. A general background to Oevdalian is provided, whereupon the syntactic restrictions of the possible null subjects (wįð ('we') and ið ('you')) are presented. Interestingly, these null subjects do not appear in the same syntactic positions; whereas null ið seems to be unrestricted, null wįð may only appear in positions
In this paper, we consider the problem of robust optimization for a system with uncertainty of rank one. The main result is the canonical parameterization of all destabilizing uncertainties in the dual problem. The corresponding result in the rational case has been previously stated in terms of unstable zero-pole cancellations.In this paper the result is extended to the class of non-rational syste
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den rykande startpistolen eller Konsten att ta tid på en flygande elektron Flygande elektroner kan berätta mycket om hur världen sitter ihop. Elektroner som lämnar ytan av något material avslöjar både vilka atomer som finns i materialet och hur de kemiska bindingarna ser ut. Allt detta är nödvändigt att förstå när man vill utveckla nya material – till exempel för kret
A peptide corresponding to a 13-residue segment of the human protein semenogelin I has been shown to generate a hydrogel consisting of amyloid-like fibrils. The relative chemical diversity (compared to synthetic de novo sequences) with 11 distinct amino acids makes this peptide (P0) an ideal candidate for investigating the role of individual residues in gelation. Herein, the N-terminal residues ha
Short-term cultures of samples from eight prophylactic mastectomies from five unrelated women who were genetically predisposed to breast cancer were analyzed cytogenetically. Clonal chromosome abnormalities were detected in five breasts. Three samples from two women had aberrations involving the short arm of chromosome 3, with a breakpoint in 3p14 in common. Three samples from three women had rear
Background: With a yearly incidence of 56 per 100,000 inhabitants, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the Western world, representing the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Within three years after the diagnosis of CRC, 29% of patients will have developed liver metastases. Liver resection is a possibly curative treatment, and several preoperative strate
Tolerance is crucial for maintaining immunological balance and avoid autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes and the inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis (UC). In Study I, we have investigated the regulatory role of a class of noncoding RNAs, the miRNAs, during thymocyte development of the where central tolerance is established. We used the non-obese diabetic mouse (NOD) which is spon
Background Leaf-cutting ants live in symbiosis with a fungus that they rear for food by providing it with live plant material. Until recently the fungus' main inferred function was to make otherwise inaccessible cell wall degradation products available to the ants, but new studies have shed doubt on this idea. To provide evidence for the cell wall degrading capacity of the attine ant symbiont, we
