"Early Modern Text Recycing: On the Study of Neolatin Texts". The study of Neo-Latin texts is discussed with special regard to intertextuality. It is argued that intertextuality in Neo-Latin texts depends partly on the fact that Latin was learnt through imitation, partly on the existence of a rich variety of multifaceted texts - which cannot be classed as either "literary" or "non-literary" - with

With the introduction of standards such as DSRC and WAVE, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET) are being considered as candidates to improve road safety. Safety applications developed on top of VANET enable vehicle and driver improved awareness of the road situation through vehicles sharing their status and knowledge of the road conditions. In order for these systems to operate, they depend on reliab

Den dokumentvillkorade garantin, som i praktiken vanligen betecknas som självständig, känneteck-nas av att villkoren i utfästelsen väsentligen endast innefattar villkor som refererar till att vissa angivna dokument presenteras för garanten. Dokumentvillkorade garantier förekommer vanligtvis i avtalsstrukturer som involverar ett flertal olika avtal och parter. De typer av avtal som omfattas av sådaDocumentary guarantees, in practice usually described as independent guarantees, are characterized by the fact that they essentially contain only conditions referring to whether or not certain specified documents are presented to the guarantor. A documentary guarantee is usually only one part of a contractual structure involving several contracts and parties. Such contracts give rise to special le

It is argued that evolution goes beyond that which can be described in a well-defined language) and that it instead enforces a language that is itself evolving. Evolution is the unfolding of this self-reference. The unfolding methodology of the logician Alfred Tarski is taken as a basis for the explicability of evolution. Looking at Tarski´s results as a linguistic complementarity, we get a view w

Much information has been gathered through the years from fires in fire investigation reports or as statistics. The information might have been collected centrally by an agency, an insurance company or locally by the local fire service. The information can be used to learn from these events and to improve the fire safety in buildings. In this paper a methodology to find technical deficiencies in f

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sjukdomar hos äldre har ofta annan sjukdomsbild än motsvarande sjukdom hos medelålders och yngre. Till exempel är symtomen är ofta mindre tydliga, äldre har ofta flera samtidiga sjukdomar som ger en komplex sjukdomsbild, dessutom kan ett ”mindre allvarligt” sjukdomstillstånd föra med sig betydande besvär pga annan samtidig sjukdom. Detta gäller även för depressionssjukdStudies have found that depressive states in old age that do not fulfil the criteria for major depression are clinically important depressive states. These depressive states are common in primary care patients. Therefore, studies of late-life depression from a primary care perspective are needed. A depressive rating scale, Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 (HSCL-25), was used in a community survey in 1

Elongation factor G (EF-G) catalyses the translocation step in protein synthesis on the ribosome. During this event the antibiotic Fusidic acid (FA) binds to and irreversably inhibits the release of the EF-G:GDP complex from the ribosome. The difficulties to elucidate the exact binding mechanism of FA to the EF-G:GDP:ribosome complex are due to the fact that FA only binds to EF-G when the factor i
