This tutorial is devoted to the notion of max-min fairness (MMF), associated optimization problems, and their applications to multi-commodity flow networks.We first introduce a theoretical background for a generic MMF optimization problem and discuss its relation to lexicographic optimization. We next present resolution algorithms for convex MMF optimization, and analyze their properties. In the s

A harmonic oscillator topology displaying an improved phase noise performance is introduced in this paper. Exploiting the advantages yielded by operating the core transistors in class-C, a theoretical 3.9 dB phase noise improvement compared to the standard differential-pair LC-tank oscillator is achieved for the same current consumption. Further benefits derive from the natural rejection of the ta

Revised simulation theory (Goldman, 2006) allows mental state attributions containing some or all of the attributor’s genuine, non-simulated mental states. It is thought that this gives the revised theory an empirical advantage, because unlike theory theory and rationality theory, it can explain egocentric bias (the tendency to over attribute ones’ own mental states to others). I challenge this vi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Antonymer är motsatsord, t.ex. stor-liten, kort-lång, och varm-kall. Den här avhandlingen handlar om antonymer och om vilken typ av lexikal information som man kan lagra i ett elektroniskt lexikon (Svenskt Ordnät) samt hur man kan få fram lexikal information ur stora textmassor med datorns hjälp. Baserat på hur vanliga ord är kan man beräkna hur ofta man kan förvänta siHow are antonym relations acquired? What types of lexical information can be extracted from corpora and how? How can this information be encoded in a lexicon? The work in this book was developed within the framework of WordNet. A further elaborated lexical model is suggested, as well as methods for implementing it. The first part of the book is a study of adjectives co-occurring with adjectives. E

BACKGROUND: Beta-microseminoprotein, an abundant component in prostatic fluid, is encoded by the potential tumor suppressor gene MSMB. Some New World monkeys carry several copies of this gene, in contrast to most mammals, including humans, which have one only. Here we have investigated the background for the species difference by analyzing the chromosomal organization and expression of MSMB in the

BACKGROUND: Shortening of the atrial refractory period is the key feature of atrial electrical remodeling during atrial fibrillation (AF). During sinus rhythm (SR), assessment of the atrial refractoriness is hampered by the fact that the atrial repolarization wave (Ta wave) is largely obscured by the following QRST complex. The purpose of this study was to study the Ta wave in subjects with paroxy

A 10bit SAR-ADC implemented in a 1.2V 0.13mum CMOS with 1VppdiffFS, based on capacitive-charge redistribution can be programmed with Fs up-to-6MS/s, guaranteeing an ENOB>9b with a SFDR>74dB. The static INL and DNL are 0.6LSB and 0.55LSB, respectively. On-chip reference buffer have been added and their power consumption dominates, giving a FoMap1pJ/conv. Sharing these buffers with other blocks in S

We have recently described the immunosuppressive properties of AR-C117977 and AR-C122982, representatives of a group of compounds identified as inhibitors of lactate transporters (monocarboxylate transporters; MCTs). These compounds demonstrate the potential therapeutic usefulness of inhibiting MCT-1, but their physical and metabolic properties made them unsuitable for further development. We have

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen innehåller tre empiriska studier som analyserar hur livsmedelsmarknaden påverkas av åtgärder för att fördjupa den europeiska ekonomiska integrationen. Fokus är på det svenska EU-medlemskap och det kontinuerliga arbetet med att harmonisera livsmedelslagstiftningen. Det senare har stor relevans för livsmedelsmarknaden eftersom det har funnits och fortfarande This thesis consists of three papers, all of which deal with the effects of deepening European integration on the food and beverage industry and market. The focus is on the period after Swedish EU membership in 1995. The last two papers use firm data and focus on the Swedish food and beverage industry, an industry which is an interesting case study as it was considered to be protected from foreign
