I Sverige finns ett stort bostadsbestånd som står inför ombyggnad. Miljonprogrammets bostäder är över 40 år gamla och behöver rustas upp. Det är angeläget att denna upprustning utformas på ett sådant sätt att husen byggs om till energieffektiva byggnader med låga framtida drifts- och uppvärmningskostnader och med låg miljöpåverkan under hela livscykeln. Det är i sammanhanget viktigt att energieffe
This article is a continuation of my article in Working Papers 45, 1996, which was an analysis of definite marking and referential status of nouns. This article is a parallel and deals with verbs, namely aspect marking and situation types, and has the same approach, cognitive and typological, and the same corpus: an extract from a Swedish children’s book.

A study of Swedish post-war amateur and experimental film culture, and especially the gradual divide between amateurs and experimentalists.
This paper presents a new industrial adaptive PID controller. The controller has the PID structure, with dual rate sampling, which means that the sampling rate for the PID controller is significantly higher than the sampling rate in the parameter estimator. The controller differs from conventional parametric adaptive controllers because it is based on estimation of transfer function properties. Fo

In contrast, the inclusion of price variability le
When a child has special communication needs, his or her entire family is affected. This position paper deals with “Xings” (crossings or just xings): active and reactive multisensory media, designed to be communicative on their own terms, challenging existing everyday communication patterns and augmenting family communication. The common shortcomings of oral and written language are no longer crit
Children with lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans* and/or queer (LGBTQ) parents have received heightened attention during the processes of policy making regarding adoption and donor insemination legislation in Sweden during the 1990s and early 2000s. Yet, very little academic knowledge exists about children and young people in LGBTQ families and their experiences in schools. We engage the idea of "cultu
Claims have been made that Botswana's last four decades of success with economic growth and political stability builds on a foundation of good political institutions. In this paper these political institutions are critically analysed.
