Development and evaluation of a lightweight root cause analysis method (ARCA method) - field studies at four software companies

Abstract in UndeterminedContextThe key for effective problem prevention is detecting the causes of a problem that has occurred. Root cause analysis (RCA) is a structured investigation of the problem to identify which underlying causes need to be fixed. The RCA method consists of three steps: target problem detection, root cause detection, and corrective action innovation. Its results can help with

Minimetern hjälper hjärnskadade att kommunicera

Specialutvecklad elektronik för rehabilitering avhjärnskadade är tidsödande och dyrbar att utveckla. Björn Breidegard från Certec, Lunds tekniska högskola, berättar här hur man i stället kan använda enbillig TV-kamera i kombination med dator och programvara. Resultaten är mycket lyckade.

Empirical studies of financial asset returns

This dissertation aims at understanding differences in rates of returns on financial assets, both in the cross-section and over time. It contains four chapters. The first paper is "Non-separable preferences and risk aversion: Results from the UK". Due to poor empirical support of the Consumption Capital Asset Pricing Model it has been suggested that the model should be specified as being non-separ

Residential preferences for interregional migration in Sweden: demographic, socio-economic and geographical determinants

Policy makers are showing increasing interest in factors that make places attractive for prospective new residents. This paper focuses on residential preferences for interregional migration and aims to explore what place attributes people would value highly if they considered migrating. Special attention is given to differences in preferences between population subgroups in terms of demographic, s

A new equation to estimate temperature-corrected PaCO2 from PET CO2 during exercise in normoxia and hypoxia.

End-tidal PCO2 (PET CO2 ) has been used to estimate arterial pressure CO2 (Pa CO2 ). However, the influence of blood temperature on the Pa CO2 has not been taken into account. Moreover, there is no equation validated to predict Pa CO2 during exercise in severe acute hypoxia. To develop a new equation to predict temperature-corrected Pa CO2 values during exercise in normoxia and severe acute hypoxi

Characterization of 60 GHz Shadowing by Human Bodies and Simple Phantoms

The 60 GHz band is very promising for high data rate (>1 Gb/s) wireless systems operating at short ranges. However, due to the short wavelengths in this frequency band, the shadowing effects cuased by human bodies and furniture are severe and need to be modeled properly. In this paper, we present an experimental, measurement-based characterization of the reflection and shadowing effects in the 60

Hardware Architectures for Wireless Communication - Symbol Detection and Channel Estimation

Popular Abstract in Swedish I och med de smarta mobiltelefonernas framväxt överförs allt mer data i de mobila nätverken. Detta ställer allt högre krav på mobilsystemen och de mobila enheterna. Ett effektivt utnyttjande av de tillgängliga resurserna är nödvändigt. Det tillgängliga frekvensspektrat är begränsat och måste utnyttjas så väl som möjligt. Detta görs bland annat genom att öka mängden dataIn this thesis different aspects of baseband implementation of mobile communication systems is treated. The content is focused on symbol detection and channel estimation in MIMO and OFDM. The thesis deals with the complete chain from algorithm to silicon implementation within these areas. The main contribution of this thesis is described in the included papers. The first paper handles symbol dete

Time-domain approach to the forward scattering sum rule

The forward scattering sum rule relates the extinction cross section integrated over all wavelengths with the polarizability dyadics. It is useful for deriving bounds on the interaction between scatterers and electromagnetic fields, antenna bandwidth and directivity and energy transmission through sub-wavelength apertures. The sum rule is valid for linearly polarized plane waves impinging on linea

Regional konsumtion i EU hindrar parallellimport från lågprisländer

I tidigare artiklar (Sverige – EEG och konkurrensen - SvJT 1974: s. 18-33) aktualiserades relationen mellan konkurrensrätt och immaterialrätt. Den regionala konsumtionsprincipen utvecklas under de kommande åren genom en omfattande rättspraxis. Däremot har det varit oklarare vad som gäller för produkter från omvärlden. Sätter de gemensamma reglerna en minimistandard för EU, som innebär att medlemss

A method for re-planning of software releases using discrete-event simulation

Software release planning can be described as a process consisting of the following three phases: (i) strategic release planning, i.e. the assignment of features to subsequent releases, (ii) operational release planning, i.e. the allocation of resources to tasks within each individual release, and (iii) dynamic re-planning, i.e. the revision of plans to handle unexpected changes imposed on product
