Evaluating Off-the-shelf Hardware for Indoor Positioning

An indoor positioning system (IPS) is a system to locate objects in indoor environments using radio waves, magnetic fields, acoustic, optical and video signals or other sensory information with help of a number of known reference positions. Nowadays, indoor positioning based services are used in a wide variety of areas and indoor positioning is getting considerable attention from both research and

Application security for embedded systems

With the rise of Internet of Things (IoT) accessories such as network attached cameras, light bulbs and thermostats are all constantly connected to the Internet and security concerns must be taken seriously. If a bug exists in an application it could be hacked by a malicious adversary that then could harm the underlying system, leak information or attack other devices or networks. Applications sho

Naturnära bygemenskap: Bo och leva på landsbygden

Projektet syftar till att skapa möjlighet för boende och verkande på landsbygden, nära naturen, utan att vara beroende av daglig pendling till staden. Arbetet ska ses som ett konstruktivt alternativ till den stadsutglesande exploatering av landsbygden som tonger rådande norm för den byggda miljön. Arbetet handlar om att skapa en plats där subjektiva värden kan ges uttryck genom arkitekturen och däThe purpose of this project was to look into the possibility of living and working in the countryside, close to nature, without depending on everyday commute to the city. This work is intended as a constructive alternative for people interested in a life closer to nature without wanting to add to the urban sprawl. It’s about creating a place that exhibits subjectivity through architecture and wher

An Empirical Analysis of the Profitability of Technical Analysis Across Global Markets - The Case of Equities, Commodities and Foreign Exchange Rates

Four technical indicators are tested on 14 return-series, covering the years 2000 – 2016 and representing 3 different asset types: equity, commodity and currency, with a further division of equity into developed and developing markets. The indicators assessed are Moving Averages with fixed and variable holding periods, MACD, and RSI. The purpose is to determine if there are any differences in the

Phenotypic and genetic correlation between male and female fitness in the simultaneous hermaphrodite Macrostomum lignano

The relationship between the male and the female function in the simultaneous hermaphroditic flatworm Macrostomum lignano has been intensively studied on a phenotypic level. The results from these studies largely coincide with predictions that derive from sex allocation theory, which assumes a trade-off between the allocation of resources to the sex functions. Results from a recent experimental ev

3-D impedance networks simulate complex resistivity spectra of sand-pyrite-water mixtures

Characterizing ore deposits or mining dumps in terms of mineral content and grain size remains a challenge. Since the 1950s the induced polarization (IP) method has been successfully applied in ore prospecting. However, reliably interpreting field survey data requires comprehensive laboratory studies to establish a link between the IP parameters from empirical or phenomenological models and the typ

A systematic meta-review: the relationship between forest structures and biodiversity in deciduous forests.

Human activities in deciduous forests over the past centuries have influenced associated species. To reduce extinction risks and mitigate population declines, there is growing interest in forest conservation and restoration, including initiatives by the European Union (EU). For resulting restoration and conservation practices to succeed, it is essential to know which forest characteristics promote

Genombrott i fuktmätning : Ingjutningsbara och trådlösa RF-prober för betong

Mätning av relativ fuktighet, RF, i betong har tagit ett stort steg framåt med hjälp av trådlösa RF-prober som kan gjutas in direkt från start. I ett nyligen avslutat projekt vid avdelning Byggnadsmaterial vid Lunds tekniska högskola har ett mätsystem för RF i betong utvärderats. En av de största utmaningarna var att säkerställa att proberna klarar ingjutning och att de ger tillförlitliga mätninga

Renovera för hela livet. Det är inte bara en fråga för fastighetsägare.

Bostadskrisen slår mot alla generationer – men lösningarna måste vara långsiktiga och inkludera de behov äldre människor har. Det skriver fyra forskare som är verksamma vid institutionen för hälsovetenskaper vid Lunds universitet och tillhörforskningscentret CASE, Centre for Ageing and Supportive Environments.

Global Distribution and Local Variation of Pre-Rain Green-Up in Tropical Dryland

Pre-rain green-up is a distinctive phenological phenomenon observed in arid and semi-arid regions, featuring the sprouting of plants before the onset of the rainy season. This phenomenon indicates the intricate controls of vegetation phenology other than precipitation, yet its global distribution patterns and underlying causes remain unclear. In this study, we used remotely sensed phenology and ra

Resilience of primary healthcare facilities : Experiences from 16 European countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. A mixed-methods study conducted by EURIPA

Background. The role of primary healthcare (PHC) during a pandemic varies across European countries. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has altered the working practices of family medicine doctors and impacted the resilience of healthcare systems. Objectives. This study aimed to examine European healthcare system responses to the pandemic, focusing on rural and urban differences. Mat

Antisense-mediated regulation of exon usage in the elastic spring region of Titin modulates sarcomere function

Aims Alternative splicing of Titin (TTN) I-band exons produce protein isoforms with variable size and elasticity, but the mechanisms whereby TTN splice factors regulate exon usage and thereby determining cardiomyocyte passive stiffness and diastolic function, is not well understood. Non-coding RNA transcripts from the antisense strand of protein-coding genes have been shown to regulate alternative

TinyFoA : Memory Efficient Forward-Only Algorithm for On-Device Learning

Forward-only algorithms offer a promising memory-efficient alternative to Backpropagation (BP) for on-device training. However, state-of-the-art forward-only algorithms, e.g., Forward-Forward (FF), still require a substantial amount of memory during the training process, often exceeding the limits of mobile edge and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. At the same time, existing memory-optimization t

X-ray crystallographic and hydrogen deuterium exchange studies confirm alternate kinetic models for homolog insulin monomers

Despite the crucial role of various insulin analogs in achieving satisfactory glycemic control, a comprehensive understanding of their in-solution dynamic mechanisms still holds the potential to further optimize rapid insulin analogs, thus significantly improving the well-being of individuals with Type 1 Diabetes. Here, we employed hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to decipher the mole

Marknadsföring, människor och interaktion

Marknadsföring är så mycket mer än strategier, marknadsundersökningar och reklamkampanjer. Den uppstår i det dagliga samspelet mellan människor. I Marknadsföring, människor och interaktion får vi ett alternativt perspektiv på marknadsföring, bortom den traditionella marketing management-logiken. Genom att utgå från symbolisk interaktionism synliggör författarna hur marknader, konsumenter, produkte

Late Medieval Shipboard Artillery on a Northern European Carvel : Gribshunden (1495)

We present the artillery of a well-preserved late medieval Danish-Norwegian carvel warship, Gribshunden. Probably built in the Netherlands in 1484, the ship served King Hans until sinking in June 1495. Of its original 50 or more guns, elements of 11 have been recovered and digitally recreated, and more remain on the wreck. Investigation of this site provides insights into the development of shipboWe present the artillery of a well-preserved late medieval Danish-Norwegian carvel warship, Gribshunden.
