Is In re Deuel still the law of the land? The US examination of nonobviousness after KSR v. Teleflex with special emphasis on DNA related inventions

The year 2007 was an extraordinary year for the US Patent System. In a response to far reaching proposals for significant changes in substantive and procedural patent law the House of Representatives adopted the Patent Reform Act in September and the debates were heating up again. Moreover, the U.S. Supreme Court turned its attention to patent issues delivering three major patent judgments and gra

Perception verbs revisited

This paper will present some very general descriptions of language-specific conceptualization of visual perception in English and Lithuanian, and will focus on some basic structure-dependent types of meaning of the see and seem type perception verbs in English and Lithuanian. For this purpose, the hierarchical structure of the clause and the typology of perception verb complements proposed by Simo

The Role of Open Space – Spatial Strategies for Integration.

The role of urban open space is multi-faceted. Looking at residential open space you will find that it has specific qualities compared to other types of urban space due to the proximity to home. This paper discusses residential open space as arena for integration, taking this topological property as a starting point. The paper is based on an ongoing study in the Swedish city Landskrona. The study

Concealing or Revealing? Alternative Paths to Secondary Innovation

While scholars increasingly make a distinction between primary and secondary innovation, there is still little consensus about how secondary innovation is created. One line of research emphasizes knowledge concealing, concluding that a focal firm should strive to recycle knowledge within the company, but limit other actors’ to access firm-specific knowledge. Another line, however, provides the con

Skulle jag grilla lamm med dig? Försoning och oförsonlighet i före detta lägerfångars berättelser

Kan civila som blivit måltavla för krigshandlingar försonas med sina före detta fiender? Denna studie analyserar muntligt gestaltade erfarenheter hos före detta lägerfångar som frihetsberövades i början av kriget i Bosnien-Hercegovina under 1990-talet och placerades i koncentrationslägerna Omarska, Keraterm och Manjaca. Efter kriget har fångarna tagit sin tillflykt till de nordiska länderna. StuIs it possible for civilians, who have been targets of war action, to reconcile with their former enemies? In this study I am analyzing the stories told by former camp-prisoners who were imprisoned at the beginning of the Bosnia-Herzegovina war in the early 1990’s. These prisoners were detained in the concentration-camps of Omarska, Keraterm and Manjača. The former prisoners took refuge in the Nor

Modelling of Microturbine systems

The paper describes the development of a dynamic model of amicroturbine system. The paper was done in close cooperation with the gas turbine manufacturer Turbec AB and the model was tuned and verified against theirmicroturbine system T100. The microturbine unit consists of a compressor and a turbine connected on a single shaft to a high-speed generator.The model includes all the main thermodynamic

Integration of Non-synchronous Generation - Frequency Dynamics

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige och Norden har elproduktion traditionellt skett med huvudsakligen vattenkraft och kärnkraft. Detta håller dock på att förändras i takt med en allt större vindkraftsutbyggnad. Vindkraften skiljer sig i vissa avseenden från de traditionella produktionsslagen, ett av dessa är hur anslutningen till elnätet är utformad. Detta innebär att vindkraften, sedd från näteTraditionally the predominant generation has been large synchronous generators providing the system inertia. Nowadays when wind power and other non-synchronously connected units displaces this synchronous generation, the system inertia is reduced. Hence higher rate of change of frequency and larger frequency deviations are expected. This thesis deals with the impact on rate of change of frequency

An Alternating Service Model with Self-Similar Input to Provide Guaranteed QoS in Wireless Internet

Over the past few years, we have witnessed a growing popularity of new wireless architectures such as 3G, Wi-Fi and Wi-Max due to the increase in demand for wireless Internet access. The all-IP based future mobile and wireless network model is expected to be the most dominant architecture for QoS provisioning in next-generation wireless networks, mainly due to its scalability and capability of int
