Vehicles in the future are anticipated to have the ability to communicate and exchange useful information in order to avoid collisions. However, for this cooperation to be possible all vehicles will have to be equipped with compatible wireless IEEE 802.11p modules that implement intelligent transport systems operating in the 5 GHz frequency band standard (ITS-G5 or WAVE). During the implementation

The placement of verse 20 in Psalm 72 has long puzzled scholars and has raised a number of questions: Why is תפלה used? Why does it state that the prayers of David are ended? Where does this leave Solomon (v. 1)? Why is it placed after the doxology of vv. 18–19? And why is it found in the middle of the Elohistic Psalter? To solve these problems, a number of suggestions have been presented, none of

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om de personliga följderna av de tidiga konsekvenserna av kronisk ledgångsreumatism, hur det påverkar personernas arbetsliv och hur de hanterar detta. I denna kvalitativa studie har tematiserade intervjuer använts. Tjugotre personer, vilka nyligen diagnostiserats med kronisk ledgångsreumatism, var intervjuade två gånger med två års mellanrum. StudieThis dissertation discusses the personal implications of the early consequences of rheumatoid arthritis, how they effect the person's working life and how they are dealt with. In this qualitative study thematized interviews are used. Twenty-three persons, recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, were interviewed twice, two years apart. The study is influenced by an interactionist perspective

Popular Abstract in Swedish En ny organisation har identifierats i multinationella företag. Vad utmärker denna? Vilka är skillnaderna mot tidigare? Denna avhandling beskriver och förklarar multinationella företags organisation utifrån en utvidgad nyinstitutionell ekonomisk teori för samordningsmekanismer och samordningsformer. Nya organisatoriska inslag identifieras och analyseras utifrån denna teDuring the 1980s and the 1990s several researchers have described new organisational features and a new organisational form in multinational enterprises, linked to a variety of theoretical approaches. Can the new organisational features be analysed from a consistent theoretical basis, and can, hereby, a new organisational form be distinguished from earlier forms? The purpose of this dissertation i

Popular Abstract in Swedish I början 1990-talet upptäcktes att det var möjligt att syntetisera så kallad mesoporös silika. Upptäckten fick stor uppmärksamhet då materialen har ett flertal intressanta egenskaper som inkluderar ett stort antal porer med väldefinierad diameter, jämn partikelstorlek och möjligheten att påverka dessa och andra egenskaper. I den här avhandlingen har det mesoporösa siliSeveral aspects related to the mesoporous silica material SBA-15 have been studied through the use of a wide range of experimental techniques, including low voltage high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, small angle X-ray scattering and nitrogen sorption. This work contains three parts, which are in many ways overlapping. The first part deals with the formation of SBA-15, it is found that a

Many people have experienced computers not doing what they were expected to do or, perhaps more often, met with computers that deliver faulty results. Frequently, if not always, such behavior is blamed the lack of a complete requirements specification. hi this assertion, it is tacitly understood that if a specification is correct and comprehensive enough then it is possible to avoid computing erro

Laser spectroscopy techniques can be used for tumour detection as well as for localised therapy of malignancies. Laser-induced fluorescence with or without exogenously administered tumour seeking agents is a promising technique for real-time detection of atypical cells and dysplasia before the diseased areas can be visualised by the naked eye. Tumour borders can also be delineated towards normal n

The study deals with the ancient town of Caleacte, modern Caronia, on the north coast of Sicily. Information provided by ancient textual sources, epigraphy and archaeology on the economic conditions and framework of the site and its micro-region are presented in the first chapter. Production and exchange through a diachronic perspective of nearly 1,000 years is illustrated through the study of pot
