Raytracing in the compensation of the peripheral optics of the eye

Abstract Background: Many people with a visual impairment have only peripheral vision. However, there is limited knowledge of the peripheral optics of the eye and only some measurements are available in this field. Methods: We simulated the paths of peripheral rays through the eye by means of raytracing. Five programs were compared. The OSLO raytracing software proved to be not only the best one

Phylogenomic Analysis of Vertebrate Evolution

The field of phylogenomics has emerged during the last five years, as the number of fully or partially sequenced genomes has increased rapidly. Using whole genomes for phylogenetic studies greatly increases the accuracy of the trees determined, and can potentially resolve phylogenetic questions that could not be resolved bu studies using only a few gene sequences. In the current thesis selected p

Who Controls Carbon Emissions from Transport and Who Cares? Investigating the Monitoring of Co2 from a Logistics Service Provider’s Perspective

This article explores the environmental impact of logistics service provider (LPS) activities in the light of increased customer priorities and the fragmentation of the industry. The research is based on a narrative literature review, an interview study, a case survey, and three in-depth case studies. A framework on sustainability challenges in supply chains derived from the literature is used to

Patterns of verb usage in Swedish children with SLI: an application of recent theories

Data from several languages, including Swedish, have shown that children with specific language impairment (SLI) have particular difficulties with verb morphology. In the present study, the verb morphology of six Swedish children with SLI was further explored in longitudinal and cross-sectional data. It was found that the children with SLI had significant problems with the use of auxiliary and mod

Krävs både dominans och konkurrensskada för att stoppa företagskoncentrationer?

Abstract in Undetermined Continental Can-domen uppfattades som omvälvande, men när jag trettio år senare läser om domsskälen är det slående hur brett formulerade de är. I slutet av sitt principiella resonemang, som förklarar varför även strukturella förändringar kan bli föremål för ingrepp, uttalar EG-domstolen: (27) … for the strengthening of the position of an undertaking may be an abuse and pro

The realism of confidence judgments of statements in the Cognitive and Standard Interviews

The Cognitive Interview (CI) is a well-researched interview method and the research results show that CI, compared with more conventional interview styles, enhances witnesses’ memory. However, not much research has been done on the question of how CI affects the realism of eyewitnesses’ judgments of confidence in the veracity of their interview statements. In a previous study (Granhag, Jonsson &am

Nice Resource Reservations in Linux

Computing systems are becoming more and more complex and powerful every year. It is nowadays not uncommon to run several server applications on the same physical platform. This gives rise to a need for resource reservation techniques, so that administrators may prioritize some applications, or customers, over others. This article gives a brief introduction to the Linux kernel 2.6 task scheduler. T
