There is a need to identify factors that affect the result of empirical studies in software engineering research. It is still the case that seemingly identical replications of controlled experiments result in different conclusions due to the fact that all factors describing the experiment context are not clearly defined and hence controlled. In this article, a scheme for describing the participant
Based on a survey of research concerning outcomes of sensitivity training and group relations conferences five pre-conditions for menaingful research on outcomes of group relations conferences are presented and discussed.

The problem of correctly recovering assembly instructions from a binary has received much attention and both malware and license validation code often relies on various anti-disassembly techniques in order to complicate analysis. One well-known anti-disassembly technique is to use overlapping code such that the disassembler starts decoding from an incorrect byte, but still recovers valid code. The
Frågan om hur välfärdsarrangemangen i ett modernt samhälle kan eller bör se ut förefaller mera öppen än på länge. I vissa avseenden påminner dagens diskussioner om hur välfärden ska organiseras om förra sekelskiftets diskussioner om hur ”den sociala frågan” skulle lösas. Inte minst när det gäller frågan om hur företagen ska kunna förena effektivitet och konkurrensförmåga med socialt ansvar finns d
This paper presents a novel approach to scheduling communications among concurrent hardware processes mapped onto a "System on a Programmable Chip." Point-to-point, broadcast and multi-cast ommunication types are supported. The algorithm has been prototyped on the Processor-Coupled Polymorphous Fabric for the Altera Excalibur Arm architecture. The communication schedule problem has been specified

Today a broad body of literature has emerged within the IS research community investigating the organizational consequences of IS implementations. However in view of these developments, it seems that practitioners are still faced with implementation problems, such as user dissatisfaction, resistance and mismatches between the new technology and existing work practices. It is this tension, within a
In this paper we study the distribution of the product of an inverse Wishart random matrix and a Gaussian random vector. We derive its asymptotic distribution as well as its approximate density function formula which is based on the Gaussian integral and the third order Taylor expansion. Furthermore, we compare obtained asymptotic and approximate density functions with the exact density which is o
Popular Abstract in English Airborne particulate matter is well known because of its adverse impacts on human health and its role in climate processes. In order to understand completely the role of aerosols in atmosphere, their chemical composition is of basic importance. Chemical analysis of aerosols involves broadly two steps, extraction step and detection/quantification of chemical constituentsAirborne particulate matter is well known because of its adverse impacts on human health and its role in climate processes.
