From Microtraining and Open Educational Resources (OER) to Master Cources on Geographical Inforamtion Systems (GIS)

With today’s rapid changes in socio-economy and technology, knowledge and learning are critical issues for most companies and private and civil service organisations. The needs for competence development range from short informal courses to formal educational programs at university level. Informal learning is less predictable. It is nevertheless a very natural way of learning, although it is often

Traffic shaping and dimensioning of an external overload controller in service architectures

This paper investigates the dimensioning of a server used for external overload control in service architecture. Great savings can be obtained by an operator if the dimensioning analysis is performed correctly. As one of the main parts of this paper it is shown that Poissonian arrivals is a good assumption for some services in service architectures. Methods that can be used for dimensioning are pr

Measurement of volume fractions of solid, liquid and gas in kraft and CTMP paper at varying moisture content

The consolidation of paper during drying is of interest to increase the understanding of the development of the paper quality. The mercury displacement technique proved suitable to measure the apparent solid density and the volume fractions of solid, liquid and gas in wet paper sheets. Measurements were performed on handsheets of chemi-thermomechanical pulp (CTMP), bleached and unbleached softwood

Model Systems for Metal - DNA Interactions. With a Focus on Anticancer Active Platinum(II) Complexes.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Modellsystem för metall-DNA interaktioner Med fokus på anticanceraktiva platina(II) komplex Guld är ett mytomspunnet och fascinerande ämne som ger liv. Ett påstående som kanske förvånar, eftersom guld ofta förknippas med vackra smycken och rikedom. Att guld skulle ge liv var dock en förhoppning i Kina på 600-talet f. Kr. Där använde man nämligen metalliskt guld för medReactions of trans-dicyanodichloroaurate(III) trans-dibromodicyanoaurate(III), trans-diamminedichlorogold(III), cis-diammine(aqua)chloroplatinum(II), cis-ammineaqua-(cyclohexylamine)chloroplatinum(II), chloro(terpyridine)platinum(II) and chloro-(diethylenetriaminepalldium(II) with dimethyl sulfide, thionucleosides, thionucleotides and thione- and guanine-containing 17-mer oligonucleotides have bee

Stochasticity in Biophysical Systems: Searching, Aging, and Spreading

Popular Abstract in Swedish Stokastika effekter är av stor betydelse i många biofysiska system. Evolution, djurs sökande efter föda, spridning av virusinfektioner och stamcellsdifferentiering, är alla exempel på processer som på ett eller annat sätt är stokastiska till sin natur. Syftet med denna avhandling är att undersöka de verktyg som ofta används för att kvantifiera slumpmässighet i naturen oThe role of stochasticity throughout many biophysical systems is of great importance. From evolution to foraging, from the spreading of viruses to cell fate, all hinge in one way or another on inherent stochasticity. The aim of this thesis is to explore the tools often used to quantify randomness in nature, and employ these tools on a selected range of biophysical systems (Papers I-IV). In these p

New Technology-Based Firms in Science Parks - A Study of Resources and Absorptive Capacity

Popular Abstract in Swedish I forskningsparker (Science Parks) finns ett antal resurser tillgängliga för de teknologibaserade företag (NTBF) som valt att lokalisera sig i dessa parker. Om företagen använder dessa resurser kan de också lättare bygga upp den resursbas som företag behöver för att kunna utvecklas och växa. I avhandlingen har tre kategorier av forskningsparksresurser identifierats: UniIn this thesis a strategy perspective (the resource-based view) is applied to the New Technology-Based Firms (NTBFs) in Science Parks, arguing that the Science Park provides the firms with a set of resources that if used could help them build their resource base and thus develop and grow. Three categories of resources are identified in the Science Park; University related resources, Science Park f

Design as Craft. Performativity and Interpellation in Design History

Teaching design history to future designers poses great challenges to me as an academic in the design field. There is a constant need to further describe and analyze how design and its history continuously are being made. The role of the designer implies the crafting of artefacts or at least an ability to communicate the possibility of them being materialized. Design history has mainly focused on

Dynamics Within and Outside the Lab. Procedings from the 6th GRASP conference, Lund University, May 2008

Since May 1998 Scandinavian group researchers and social psychologists have met bi-annually for what has to be called the GRASP conference. GRASP originally stood for ”Group as Paradox”. The first five conferences were held in Linköping, Lund, Stockholm and Skövde and, again, Linköping. The sixth conference was organized at Lund University May 15-16, 2008 under the auspices of the network Organi
