What is explanatory asymmetry?

The overall aim of this paper is to examine the claim that explanation is asymmetrical because causation is asymmetrical. The link between causal and explanatory asymmetry is focussed on. It is argued that many theories of causation account for causal asymmetry in a way that stops a causal model from contributing to our understanding of explanatory asymmetry. What appears to be generally advantage

Optimal Robot Control using Modelica and Optimica

In this paper, Modelica along with Optimica has been used to formulate and solve a minimum time optimization problem. The problem concerns traversing a given path with a robot in as short time possible under input constraints. Different problem reformulations are discussed that increase the chance of finding optimal solutions. This paper also discusses the use of these optimal solutions for contro

Evaluation of Some Algorithms for Hardware-Oriented Message Authentication

In this technical report, we consider ultra light-weight constructions of message authentication in hardware applications. We examine several known constructions and evaluate details around their hardware implementations. These constructions are all based on the framework of universal hash functions.

Electronic gJ Factors, Natural Lifetimes, and Electric Quadrupole Interaction for Rb 87 in the np ^(2)P_(3/2) Series of the Rb I Spectrum

For Rb 87 the level crossing method was applied to the first four levels ( n = 5, 6, 7, and 8) of the np 2 P 3/2 series in the Rb I spectrum. By using magnetic dipole interaction constants from corresponding zero field optical double resonance experiments, the electronic g J factors of 5, 6, and 7 p 2 P 3/2 were calculated from the level crossing data. For these levels the natural radiative lifeti

Interactive Scenario Simulation to Learn Medical Technology in the Patient Care Context

Abstract in UndeterminedCaring for intensive care patients involves extensive use ofmedical technology. When staff are educated in workingwith these devices, the focus is on practical management.The context in which they are used is however verycomplex and the device cannot be seen as a separatecomponent. Knowledge about for example the patient’smedical status and background must also be considere
