This paper summarises the aims and goals of the ALPINE project, a project involving partners in 20 European countries. It examines how the project used technology and further to enhance project learning and the problems and opportunities created by this approach. The paper refers to the work of one of its working groups, the ICT and Community outreach group. The paper shows how providers of adult

Popular Abstract in Swedish En avgörande skillnad mellan encelliga organismer såsom bakterier och multicellulära som oss själva är behovet av kommunikation och samarbete mellan cellerna. Redan under fosterstadiet måste cellerna meddela sig med varandra avseende var de skall ta vägen och vilka uppgifter var och en skall åta sig. Exempelvis måste en cell fortlöpande få information om huruvida den skThe pro-inflammatory effect of leukotrienes is an important element in the pathogenesis of multiple disorders, including asthma and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). A serious concern for IBD patients is the increased risk of developing colorectal cancer and since there seems to be a general connection between inflammation and cancer we hypothesised that LTD4 induced signalling events could be in

A virtual reality (VR) experiment with 96 participants was carried out in a Cave Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE) laboratory at Lund University to provide recommendations on the design of flashing lights at emergency exit portals for road tunnel emergency evacuation. A set of variables were investigated, namely 1) Colour of flashing lights, 2) Flashing rate, 3) The type of light source, 4) The

Methods to collect rain water and prevent runoff in agricultural areas are described. The distribution of solutes in soil columns is is investigated in several environments.

In normal light-in-flight holography the largest time difference that can be created in the image is when the reference light falls nearly parallel with the photographic plate. In that case, where the pulse front is perpendicular to the direction of propagation, the time scale on the plate is given by the speed of light. Thus the time it takes for the reference light to go from one side of the pla

An explorative interview study was performed with 21 air traffic controllers having experienced air traffic control incidents (loss of separation between aircraft). The results of the interview study identified the following main factors contributing to the occurrence of incidents: 1) memory malfunctions; 2) concentration problems; 3) distractions; 4) inadequate expectations; 5) deficient phraseol

Transient electromagnetic wave propagation in a stratified, anisotropic, dispersive medium is considered. Specifically, the direct scattering problem is addressed. The dispersive, anisotropic medium is modeled by constitutive relations (a 3 3 matrix-valued susceptibility operator) containing time convolution integrals. In the general case, nine different susceptibility kernels characterize the med
