In this paper, we present two new provable nonce-misuseresistantAEAD modes based on tweakable block ciphers and universalhash functions. These new modes target equipping high-speed applicationswith nonce-misuse-resistant AEAD (MRAE). The first mode, LowLatency Synthetic IV (LLSIV), targets similar performance on single-coreplatforms to SCT-2, while eliminating the bottlenecks that make SCT-2not fu

Testing of autonomous driving systems (ADS) is a crucial, yet complex task that requires different approaches to ensure the safety and reliability of the system in various driving scenarios. Currently, there is a lack of understanding of the industry practices for testing such systems, and also the related challenges. To this end, we conduct a secondary analysis of our previous exploratory study,

Positioning with 5G signals generally requires connection to several base stations (BSs), which makes positioning more demanding in terms of infrastructure than communications. To address this issue, there have been several theoretical studies on single BS positioning, leveraging high-resolution angle and delay estimation and multipath exploitation possibilities at mmWave frequencies. This paper p

This work focuses on the development of high temperature polymer electrolyte membranes (HT-PEMs) as key materials for HT-PEM fuel cells (HT-PEMFCs). Recognizing the challenges associated with the phosphoric acid (PA) doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) membranes, including the use of carcinogenic monomers and complex synthesis procedures, this study aims to develop more cost-effective, readily synthesiz

Previous research has shown that class differences in adult mortality in the study area emerged only in the mid-twentieth century. Such findings question a universal association between socioeconomic status and mortality. This chapter examines whether these class differences in adult mortality emerged at the same time in urban as in rural areas. The analysis shows that the social class gradient in

The class of multi-EGS groups is a generalisation of the well-known Grigorchuk–Gupta–Sidki (GGS-)groups. Here we classify branch multi-EGS groups with the congruence subgroup property and determine the profinite completion of all branch multi-EGS groups. Additionally, our results show that branch multi-EGS groups are just infinite.

This thesis analyzed the portrayal of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system in South Korea by “The Korea Times” and the “Global Times," focusing on its political, economic, and cultural implications. Using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) within Fairclough's three-dimensional framework, it examined how these newspapers depict THAAD and its broader impacts. The research f

The industrial cities of the twentieth century were intimately dependent on and characterized by migration. This chapter focuses on describing and analyzing migration flows and migrant characteristics in relation to the general economic development of the industrial city of Landskrona. During the first decades of the century, migration tended to be circular between the city and the countryside. Mi

This thesis explores the impact of NATO negotiations between Turkey and Sweden on the Kurdish diaspora in Sweden. To address this, this thesis has focused on the key concepts of identity, sense of belonging, integration and relationship with the state. To collect data, the method of semi-structured interviews has been used, which then was analysed using thematic analysis. This revealed that the ne

Starch which has been modified with octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) is an efficient emulsifier for food emulsions. The presence of the OSA groups renders the starch polymers surface active and allows for their adsorption at the oil-water interface. Due to the large size of the starch polymers, adsorbed starch offers efficient steric stabilization of emulsions. Stability is achieved also at low pH

The research "Beyond Survival: How Refugee Entrepreneurship Challenges Humanitarian Boundaries" explores the evolving dynamics within refugee camps, which transition from temporary shelters to permanent communities and where self-reliance is not just a concept but a lived reality. Through the literature review and a case study of the Syrian refugees in the Za’atari camp, this research re

This thesis investigates the narratives Icelandic politicians use to discuss crime, particularly focusing on themes of cultural purity and danger. The study aims to understand how these narratives influence public perception and policy. Politicians often frame crime as a significant threat to societal norms and values, using various rhetorical strategies to evoke emotions such as fear and urgency.

In the manufacturing industry, a major concern persists—the historical entanglement of this sector with environmental issues. Climate change and resource depletion cast a shadow over traditional practices, demanding a paradigm shift. As our planet grapples with these challenges, the imperative for sustainable manufacturing practices becomes undeniable. Futuristic Technology for Sustainable Manufac

Ribbed channel flows are encountered in numerous engineering applications to promote turbulence and enhance heat transfer in various cooling passages, e.g., in turbine blades and at combustor walls. Numerical simulations have become an increasingly useful tool for providing insights into complex turbulence and flow separation, which are critical to the design and optimization of such channels. In

To run a successful business, you need to engage and inspire your employees. To do that, first clarify the promises and values that make up your organization’s identity core – then align the core with every aspect of the business. Drawing on his influential Harvard Business Review article, Mats Urde shows how to tackle this critically important task and forge a corporate brand identity that will b
