Let H1=(V,E1) be a collection of N pairwise vertex disjoint O(1)-spanners where the weight of an edge is equal to the Euclidean distance between its endpoints. Let H2=(V,E2) be the graph on V with M edges of non-negative weight. The union of the two graphs is denoted G=(V,E1 u E2). We present a data structure of size O(M^2 + nlogn) that answers (1+ε)-approximate shortest path queries in G in const
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består sammanlagt av tre vetenskapliga artiklar: I. "Estimates in Möbius Invariant Spaces of Analytic Functions." II. "Preduals of Q_p-spaces and Carleson Embeddings of Weighted Dirichlet Spaces." III. "On the Spectrum of the Cesàro Operator on Spaces of Analytic Functions. " De första två arbeten är nära relaterade och de handlar om nya utvecklingar inThis thesis consists of three papers in which different topics in spaces of analytic functions are considered. These papers are: I. "Estimates in Möbius Invariant Spaces of Analytic Functions." II. "Preduals of Q_p-spaces and Carleson Embeddings of Weighted Dirichlet Spaces." III. "On the Spectrum of the Cesàro Operator on Spaces of Analytic Functions." The first two papers are closely related
Popular Abstract in Swedish Patienter, som på grund av lungsjukdom eller annan skada på lungorna inte kan andas tillfredsställande, kan behandlas med hjälp av en respirator som ventilerar lungorna. Respiratorbehandling kan tyvärr tillfoga redan sjuka eller skadade lungor ytterligare skador. Sådana skador kan uppkomma vid ventilation av lungorna vid alltför stora volymer och höga tryck som leder tiThe elastic pressure-volume (Pel-V) curve of the respiratory system can be used as a guide for improved ventilator management. It may indicate risks of lung damage associated with collapse or overdistension of lung units. The work described in this thesis was aimed at developing methods for the determination and characterisation of the Pel-V curve under static and dynamic conditions and at a bette
Safe object-oriented programming languages like Java provide a much more programmer-friendly environment than the low-level languages in which real-time and embedded software have traditionally been implemented. Therefore, with the recent popularity of real-time Java, it is interesting to examine its feasibility for robot motion control. We have implemented a motion control system, and an applica
Popular Abstract in Swedish Shimazaki Toson (1872 - 1943) anses vara Japans främste företrädare för shizenshugi - en japansk form av fransk Naturalisme. Hans debut som romanförfattare skedde 1906 med Hakai - Löftesbrottet. Romanen anses allmänt vara en representant för kokuhaku shosetsu, eller en "bekännelseroman". Denna avhandling påvisar att författaren hade politiska ambitioner att påvisa diskrPublished in 1906, Hakai or The Broken Commandment in English, by Shimazaki Tôson, is generally considered the first novel in the genre of shizenshugi, a Japanese variation of French Naturalisme. Traditionally, the novel has been viewed as an example of kokuhaku shôsetsu, or “confessional novel” in that the protagonist “confesses” his origin as a member of Eta¾an autochtonous and despised minority
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hypertriglyceridemi (förhöjd plasma triglycerid(TG)nivå) är en riskfaktor för hjärt- kärlsjukdom. Det har föreslagits att relationen mellan fettintag och arterioskleros orsakas av vad som utspelar sig timmarna efter måltid. TG i chylomikronerna (CM) , dvs de fettrika partiklar som transporterar kostens fett via lymfan till blodbanan hydrolyseras då av lipoproteinlipas, 1. During incubation of platelets with 3H-arachidonic acid (20:4, n-6) and 14C-cholesterol doubly labelled and colloidal gold labelled chylomicrons (CMs) and chylomicron remnants (CMRs) CMs were taken up more efficiently than CMRs. Addition of unlabelled CMs, VLDLs, LDLs and HDLs decreased the uptake of labelled CMs. Electron microscopic studies demonstrated an accumulation of CM-Au's both in the
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodflödet i livmoder- och navelsträngsartärerna påverkar bl a faktorer såsom tillväxt av livmoderns slemhinna, vidhäftningen av ägget och fostertillväxt. Det har betydelse för dessa funktioner både vid normal graviditet och vid tillstånd såsom t ex, havandeskapsförgiftning och tillväxthämning hos fostret. Blodflödet regleras av faktorer som inverkar på den glatta muskuThe serotonergic vascular control was investigated by in vitro pharmacology in the human uterine and umbilical arteries. The localisation of immunoreactive (IR) neuropeptide Y (NPY) and the influence of NPY on the adrenergic vascular effects in the human uterine artery were also studied. NPY-IR nerve fibres were observed predominantly at the media-adventitial border of the uterine artery. About 50
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar problemet hur sensoriska kvaliteter (kvalia) förhåller sig till neurala tillstånd och processer (en modern variant av det klassiska kropp-själ problemet). I avhandlingen presenteras en serie argument som avser att göra det troligt att problemen att begripa medvetandets materiella bas bottnar i en serie missförstånd och felaktiga analogier. AvhandlThis thesis is about the problem of how sensory qualities relate to neural states or processes. I shall try to present an account of why dualism appears to be an attractive and intuitive position, but also point out why dualistic intuitions may be misleading. A relatively common view in philosophy of mind is that accounts of how sensory qualities relate to neural states and processes involve an ex
Sensor based control systems increase flexibility and autonomy in robotics. One of the most common applications in robotics is welding, which is often limited to objects with fine tolerances. To be able to manage objects with relatively large tolerances, such as ship-hulls, sensor guided control systems have to be incorporated that are able to handle large deviations from the drawings. To be able
Popular Abstract in Swedish En amfifil molekyl har två delar; en del som dras till olja och en del som dras till vatten. Dessa två delar benämns vanligen huvudgrupp respektive svans. Amfifila molekyler kallas ofta tensider (på engelska surfactants), och är de aktiva beståndsdelarna i bland annat tvättmedel och hårschampo. Amfifila molekyler i vattenlösning formar sig så att vattendelarna dras tillThe formation of highly ordered mesoporous silica materials, using PEO-PPO-PEO amphiphilic triblock copolymers (so-called Pluronics) as structure directing agents, has been studied. The materials are formed through the addition of a silica source to a polymer solution of low concentration (2.5 wt ) under acidic conditions. The products have BET surface areas of approximately 800 m2/g. The unit cel
Free/Open Source Enterprise Resource Planning systems (FOS-ERP) are gaining popularity and acceptance due to two main factors: their lack of licensing fees and customizability. Given this, organizations are able to easily adopt and manipulate these systems to meet their individual needs. Free and Open Source Enterprise Resource Planning: Systems and Strategies unites research on FOS-ERP, comparin
