This paper presents the development as well as the architecture of a computer-aided dedicated fixture design system intended to support the design of lightweight (carbon fiber composite) grippers for a major truck company. Lightweight grippers were required due to the increasing production rates in the automotive industry. The current robotic equipment was facing diverse problems during transporta

Dynamic languages typically allow programs to be written at a very high level of abstraction. But their dynamic nature makes it very hard to compile such languages, meaning that a price has to be paid in terms of performance. However under certain restricted conditions compilation is possible. In this paper we describe how a domain specific language for image processing in Python can be compiled f

We derive an approximation for the throughput of strongly interfering frequency-hopping wireless networks, where packet collisions always result in lost data. A system is defined to consist of a certain number of radio networks, each with an arbitrary number of communicating units, coordinated to communicate without interference. Using the approximation, we estimate upper and lower bounds on syste

Popular Abstract in Swedish Maken, partnern eller sambon är en individ och samtidigt del av en gemenskap. Konflikten mellan dessa olika roller har givit upphov till ett heterogent system av rättsnormer. I boken beskrivs den fasta egendomens och den gemensamma bostadens behandling och därmed sammanhängande regler, både under äktenskapet, partnerskapet eller samboförhållandet och vid dessa relationeThis dissertation gives a description of the regulation of marriage, registered partnership and cohabitation - emphazising the joint dwelling - in the perspective of two basic normative patterns, on one side community and on the other financial independence/individual ownership, trying to explain the differences and similarities between the regulations. The content of the legal regulation is, furt

This Working Paper presents and discusses Swedish Historical National Accounts back to 1560 in both current and constant prices. With current prices, this paper provides a major extension of our prior WP 123. It also presents some revisions and additions to earlier data. The main result from the earlier paper of a long secular cycle with troughs around 1600 and 1800 and a peak around 1700 still ho
