As current silicon-based microelectronic devices and circuits are approaching their fundamental limits, the research field of nanoelectronics is emerging worldwide. With this background, the present thesis focuses on semiconductor nanoelectronic devices based on ballistic and quantum effects. The main material studied was a modulation doped In0.75Ga0.25As/InP semiconductor two-dimensional electr

This paper addresses design space exploration for streaming applications (such as MPEG) running on multi-processor platforms with guaranteed service interconnects. In particular, we solve mapping, path selection and router configuration problems. Given the complexity of these problems, state of the art approaches in this area largely rely on greedy heuristics, which do not guarantee optimality. Ou

Popular Abstract in Swedish Provtagning av vätskan mellan utbyteskärl och celler i läderhuden (dermis), den så kallade interstitialvätskan (IF), kan vara ett intressant alternativ eller komplement till blodprovstagning när det gäller bestämning av såväl kroppsegna substanser som läkemedel. Inom klinisk medicin finns ett behov för att undvika smärtsamma stick i samband med provtagning, till exempelDermal interstitial fluid (IF) was extracted serially and painlessly by brief suction for as long as 6 days. The erosion was otherwise kept occluded, Sample volumes exceded those required for measuring a wide range of biological substances. Epidermal regeneration was rapid. Glucose concentrations in IF and plasma, measured in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects for as long as 6 days were closely c

Popular Abstract in Swedish Depression är ett allvarligt och potentiellt förödande hälsoproblem som drabbar flera miljontals människor i världen. Trots framsteg inom depressionsforskningen återstår flera frågor kring varför vissa individer upplever depression, och andra inte, och varför vissa blir hjälpta av behandling, och andra inte. Den forskning som rapporteras här tar som utgångspunkt hypotesDepression is a serious and potentially devastating health problem, impacting millions of individuals worldwide. Although advances have been made in depression research, there remain a number of outstanding questions as to why certain individuals experience depression and why some respond to treatment and others do not. The present research takes a starting-point in the hypothesis that the existen
