Abstract – A major question in organizations is how to synchronize business processes with ICT in order to get the support they need from the adopted technology. Adoption of standardized software packages such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems aims at being the solution, demanding that either the system is adjusted to existing business processes or that the business processes are adjus

Current understanding of microglial involvement in disease is influenced by the observation that recruited bone marrow (BM)-derived cells contribute to reactive microgliosis in BM-chimeric mice. In contrast, a similar phenomenon has not been reported for BM-chimeric rats. We investigated the recruitment and microglial transformation of BM-derived cells in radiation BM-chimeric mice and rats after

In this article, results from a series of studies on the relationships between socioeconomic factors and stroke processes (stroke unit care, acute reperfusion treatment, secondary prevention with oral anticoagulants and statins) and outcomes (long-term survival, return to work and risk of suicide and suicide attempts) are summarized. The overall pattern is that acute and secondary prevention inter

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between factors in metabolic syndrome (MetS; single and combined) and the risk of pancreatic cancer. METHODS: The Metabolic Syndrome and Cancer Project is a pooled cohort containing data on body mass index, blood pressure, and blood levels of glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides. During follow-up, 862 individuals were diagnose

The moisture permeability of hardened cement paste is normally not a constant, because it depends on both the porosity and the relative humidity (RH) in the pores of the cement paste when RH exceeds approximately 60 to 70%. The measured results show a strong relationship between the porosity of the cement paste and the moisture permeability.

The use of this material under current use conditions is supported by the existing information. This material was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity, skin sensitization potential, as well as, environmental safety. Repeated dose toxicity was determined using to have the most conservative system

The thesis aims at finding means for assessing and improving the requirements engineering (RE) process in order to enhance software product quality and increase the competitive edge of software organisations. Quality can be defined as the ability to satisfy the customers’ expectations. Thus, from an RE perspective, improved quality implies improved requirements elicitation and prioritisation effor

To implement maximum likelihood estimation in state-space models, the log-likelihood function must be approximated. We study such approximations based on particle filters, and in particular conditions for consistency of the corresponding approximate maximum likelihood estimator. Numerical results illustrate the theory.

Background A routine goal in the analysis of microarray data is to identify genes with expression levels that correlate with known classes of experiments. In a growing number of array data sets, it has been shown that there is an over-abundance of genes that discriminate between known classes as compared to expectations for random classes. Therefore, one can search for novel classes in array data
