This report describes the validation of the SASPENCE driver support system using an evaluation method which has been developed within the scope of the SAfe SPEed and safe distaNCE (SASPENCE) project. SASPENCE aims to develop a driver support system that focuses on keeping a safe speed and safe heading distance in relation to other road users and road infrastructure. The system warns the driver to

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under senare år har de högsta domstolarna i Norden i ett antal uppmärksammade avgöranden åsidosatt lagar, som stått i strid med respektive lands grundlag eller med EKMR. En omdebatterad fråga är om domstolarna har gått för långt – eller om de har väntat för länge med att ta på sig denna uppgift. I denna bok sätts de nordiska domarnas uppgift att kritiskt granska lagarsIn recent years, the supreme courts in the Nordic countries have set aside statutes as contrary to the constitution of the country or to the ECHR. A much debated question is whether the courts have gone too far – or if they have waited too long to take on this task. In this dissertation, the task of Nordic judges to critically examine the compatibility of legislation with constitutional norms is

This report is a compilation of papers written by architects, engineers and planners from Africa, Asia and Latin America, involved in housing and urban development with a focus on the urban poor. The papers present projects for change and improvements within the frame of an inter-national training programme offered by Housing Development and Management (HDM) Lund University, carried out in conjunc

Window decoding schedules are very attractive for message passing decoding of spatially coupled LDPC codes. They take advantage of the inherent convolutional code structure and allow continuous transmission with low decoding latency and complexity. In this paper we show that the decoding complexity can be further reduced if suitable message passing schedules are applied within the decoding window.

In this paper the problem of modeling and design by using an ontology-based methodology is addressed. Ontology is a pretty new concept in the robotics fields. However, developing an example we will show that important advantages can be obtained in terms of design and robustness. The crucial point will be the definition of compound tasks, devices, and skills to facilitate the reasoning on different

Over the years, two strands of thought on Sustainable Development (SD) have emerged, often identified as ecologism and environmentalism, respectively. This paper suggests that there exists a third rhetorically excluded option, namely large-scale industrial expansion into space. Access to raw materials found on the Moon as well as unfiltered solar energy would dramatically increase the stock of res

Rapporten beskriver hur subjektiva faktorer påverkar medborgarnas uppfattning av staden och deras beteende, samt hur man kan bedöma eller mäta dessa faktorer. Vad som ingår i dessa faktorer resp. vilka indikatorer som speglar dem diskuterades först med ansvariga från olika kommuner i Sverige. 16 personer från11 kommuner intervjuades med detta syfte. Resultaten från intervjuerna sammanfattas i denn
