The thesis deals with circuit-level aspects of CMOS buffer SRAMs where the data throughput rate is a more important metric than access time or storage capacity. One aspect is the increased write cycle related power consumption that is the consequence of a high write ratio combined with a long word-length. That is addressed through the invention of a new bit-line operation mode which allows lower

Johannes Filoponos skrift De opificio mundi är formellt en kommentar till skapelseberättelsen i Genesis men i verkligheten en polemik mot hans samtida Kosmas Indikopleustes och dennes uppfattning om universums struktur.

The chapter presents a new perspective that concerns reception of multimodality and emphasizes how multimodal messages are perceived by the users. This perspective is described in relation to three main production-oriented perspectives: social semiotic multimodal analysis, a systemic functional approach and multimodal interactional analysis. It is argued that eye tracking measurements, in combinat

Popular Abstract in Swedish Otillfredsställande inandningsluft på bl a arbetsplatser har satts i samband med utveckling av olika akuta och kroniska symptom såsom allergi, astma och kronisk bronkit. Vi vet att bakterier och svamp producerar ett stort antal ämnen som verkar irriterande eller är allergiframkallande. Misstankar har därför riktas mot olika mikrobiologiska ämnen i luften såsom endotoxinInhalation of air-borne microorganisms and components thereof can cause illnesses and diseases. However, lack of specific and sensitive methods for exposure assessment can pose problems in predicting health outcomes. Characterization of microbial load from indoor environments using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and/or tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MSMS) as well as various bioassays (
