The authors argue that the concept of quality of government should be best understood as that of having impartial government institutions. This definition avoids functionalism, ignores the contents of specific policies in favor of the procedures for how they are implemented, and pertain to the output side of the political system. They discuss this concept in relation to several proposed alternativ

This paper presents a high throughput, low latency soft-output signal detector for a 4×4 64-QAM MIMO system. To achieve high data-level parallelism and accurate soft information, the detector adopts a node perturbation technique to generate a list of candidate vectors around Zero Forcing, ZF, result. Additionally a fast and hardware friendly node enumeration scheme is developed to significantly re

This paper presents a QVCO and divider for a 28 GHz SiGe PLL. It was designed in a SiGe process with fT= 200 GHz. The PLL is intended to be used for beam steering in an 81-86 GHz E-band transmitter. Phase control is implemented by programmable current injection into the loop filter. The simulations in Spectre use a layout extracted view with parasitics for the QVCO and the frequency divider and an

Den naturliga invändningen mot Ole-Andreas Rognstads kommentar i nummer 3 av ERT till min artikel om re-exportförbud är att min artikeln inte behandlar en konflikt mellan Silhouette och konkurrensrätten och jag påstår inte heller, som Rognstad gör gällande, att senare tids domar ger uttryck för ett nytt rättsläge i förhållandet mellan varumärkesrätten och konkurrensrätten. Syftet med artikeln är,

This paper discuss the change in early design imposed by a Product-Service Systems (PSS) perspective onto the design and development phases of engineering design and how this affects the today de-facto standard of virtual modelling of product properties. The approach is exemplified via PSS situations related to aerospace and automotive industry in order to clarify “parameters of change” due to PSS

Based on a case study from recent innovations in the Swedish white-collar union, Sif, this article introduces and develops the concept of membership interface unionism (MIU). The concept, it is argued, captures similar trends in trade unionism as that noted in the UK by Heery and Kelly in their concept of managerial unionism. Both these recent forms of unionism are signified by closer relations be

As a result of recent research discoveries and technological advancements within neuroscience, a growing interest in the brain and its functions permeates not only film studies, but also the field of humanities as a whole. Yet, the neuroscientific influence on contemporary film studies is not easily defined; on the contrary, film scholars with different starting points identify fundamentally diver
