Real-Time Geometry-Based Wireless Channel Emulation

Connected autonomous vehicles and industry 4.0 productions scenarios require ultra-reliable low-latency communication links. The varying positions of transmitter, reflecting objects and receiver cause a non-stationary time- and frequency-selective fading process. In this paper, we present the necessary hardware architecture and signal processing algorithms for a real-time geometry-based channel em

“That’s Interesting!” in Entrepreneurship Research

In order for a work on entrepreneurship to be published and attract attention, it must be interesting. The aims of this study are to understand why entrepreneurship scholars perceive entrepreneurship studies as interesting, what they consider interesting, and how they distinguish themselves from management scholars in their perception of interestingness.

Levels of Narrativity in Scandinavian Bronze Age Petroglyphs

In Europe, Scandinavia holds the largest concentration of rock art (i.e. petroglyphs), created c. 5000–first century BC, many of them showing figurative and seemingly narrative representations. In this paper, we will discuss possible narratological approaches applied to these images. We might reasonably distinguish between three levels of pictorial narrativity: representations of (i) single eventsIn Europe, Scandinavia holds the largest concentration of rock art (i.e. petroglyphs), created c. 5000–first century bc, many of them showing figurative and seemingly narrative representations.

The whys or why nots of visiting a place: information search at home and en route

We will present results from a recently completed research project financed by BFUF (the R&D Fund of the Swedish Tourism & Hospitality Industry). We have explored German tourists and how they search for tourist information at home and while travelling in Sweden. The overall aim was to understand how tourists’ information search behaviour affects the choice of attractions. The project has b

The practice of targeting visitors to urban destinations – a critical discussion of DMOs information strategies

How do you attract visitors to your city? How do you manage to be visible in the information flow for potential visitors? Urban Destination Marketing Organisations (DMO) operate in a fast changing environment with ongoing challenges to face. Digitalisation is one of the issues that DMOs have to handle. As a result, we can see that many tourism offices are closed down in Sweden. However, has new te

Sex pheromones of two leafminer species, Antispila oinophylla and Holocacista rivillei (Lepidoptera Heliozelidae) infesting grapevine in Italy

Two heliozelid species, Antispila oinophylla van Nieukerken & Wagner and Holocacista rivillei (Stainton) severely infest Italian grapevines. The volatile pheromones from calling females were collected by solid phase micro extraction (SPME) and analyzed by gas chromatography with electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD). Two compounds from A. oinophylla females eliciting electrophysiological ac

Multi-state analysis of hemi- and total hip arthroplasty for hip fractures in the Swedish population—Results from a Swedish national database study of 38,912 patients

Introduction: Hip fractures are a common problem of the elderly population with significant mortality and morbidity. The choice between total hip arthroplasty (THA) and hemiarthroplasty depends on multiple factors including comorbidity. The Swedish Hip Arthroplasty Register (SHAR) provides a unique opportunity to study mortality and revision rates in this population. Linkage with government databa

A novel rare CUBN variant and three additional genes identified in Europeans with and without diabetes : results from an exome-wide association study of albuminuria

Aims/hypothesis: Identifying rare coding variants associated with albuminuria may open new avenues for preventing chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease, which are highly prevalent in individuals with diabetes. Efforts to identify genetic susceptibility variants for albuminuria have so far been limited, with the majority of studies focusing on common variants. Methods: We performed an

En offentligrättslig korporation under Monarken? : Svenska Akademien och kungen i juridiskt perspektiv

Under hösten 2017 och våren 2018 kom Svenska Akademien och dess ställning att uppmärksammas. Bakgrunden var den turbulens i akademien som förekom efter det att anklagelser om grova brott och oegentligheter hade förts fram i massmedier. Kungens åtgärd var överraskande eftersom den tydliga utgångspunkten i svensk statsrätt är att kungen inte ska utöva någon offentlig makt.. Akademiens grundläggande
