The two major purposes of the interleaver in a turbo coding scheme are, firstly, to improve the weight distribution of the turbo code, and, secondly, to make the performance of iterative decoding as close to maximum likelihood as possible. Both these purposes should be considered when ranking and designing interleavers for turbo codes. In lack of a measure of how well the second purpose is carried
Medical education seemingly immune to discussions of gender. Study indicates gender perspective in teaching is lacking Maria Norstedt, Karen Davies Läkartidningen 2003:100;2056-62 This article builds upon qualitative interviews with teachers and students in the medical education at Lund university. The results found that a gender perspective is understood primarily in terms of the biological body.
A stream of research has highlighted the variations in competitive dynamics where the aim of firm interaction can range from competition, in order to appropriate value from competitors, to cooperation with competitors for mutual benefit. This study develops a typology of coopetitive value creation-appropriation strategies in standardization settings and then outlines a framework of a coopetitive c
The majority of the large hydro power plants in Sweden were built 1935 - 1975 and are located in a cold climate in the northern parts of Sweden. Since the power plants were designed for a service life of 50-100 years, some of them are soon to reach their estimated service life and some have already passed it. During a condition assessment to determine the status of the Porsi hydro power plant, con
TPA is known to cooperate with an activated Ras oncogene in the transformation of rodent fibroblasts, but the biochemical mechanisms responsible for this effect have not been established. In the present study we used c-fos promoter-luciferase constructs as reporters, in transient transfection assays, in NIH3T3 cells to assess the mechanism of this cooperation. We found a marked synergistic interac
The title of this thesis is The Reading Machine. Aspects of Image and Book in the Works of Anders Billow 1923 – 1953. My aim is to revise and complement the historical understanding of the establishing of the modernistic “new typography” within the theory and practice of graphic design. A wider ambition is to, through example, better clarify the surrounding society’s influence on design and how ne
