Efter festen: Om konsten att utvecklas från doktor till docent

Postdoktorns utsatta position har lyfts fram i ett antal utredningar, rapporter och debatter de senaste åren. Otydliga karriärvägar och osäkra anställningsförhållanden är några av de kritiska faktorer som identifierats och som riskerar att äventyra framtida kompetensförsörjning inom svensk forskning och utbildning. I Efter festen lyfts den ofta ohörda postdoktorala rösten fram, genom diskussion k

Limit properties of the monotone rearrangement for density and regression function estimation

The monotone rearrrangement algorithm was introduced by Hardy, Littlewood and Po ́lya as a sorting device for functions. As- suming that x is a monotone function and that an estimate xn of x is given, consider the monotone rearrangement xˆn of xn. This new estimator is shown to be uniformly consistent. Under suitable as- sumptions, pointwise limit distribution results for xˆn are obtained. The fra

Aspects of Postoperative Pain Relief with Special Emphasis on Epidural Analgesia and Major Non-Cardiac Surgery

Popular Abstract in Swedish Många äldre patienter genomgår operationer vilket innebär ökade risker för komplikationer framförallt vid omfattande kirurgiska ingrepp. Operationer i bröstkorgen och bukhålan ger upphov till påtaglig smärta i efterförloppet under den sk postoperativa perioden. En otillräcklig smärtbehandling under denna tidsperiod kan leda till en ökad risk för hjärt-kärl- och lungkompPostoperative pain relief with opioids after major non-cardiac surgery may give rise to adverse effects. The fear of dangerous side effects may therefore limit the optimal use of different treatment modalities in surgical wards. Opioids can be administered alone as an intravenous infusion, or in combination with local anaesthetics as an epidural infusion. Both regimes can be tailored with a patien

The Energy-Capital Relation, Sweden 1870-2000

This paper explores short and long-run changes in the energy to capital relation. The K/E ratio is calculated for Sweden 1870–2000, at the national, industrial and branch levels. A basic result is a substantial long-run increase in the K/E ratio which is positively correlated with the relative price pE/pK. The price response is stronger in energy intensive industries than in labour intensive indus

Evaluating the effects on enhanced intersystem connectivity

Future mobile terminals will be able to use several types of wireless systems and have the possibility to change between different operators, while maintaining there original connection. This will impact the operators way of conduct business locally as well as globally. The different wireless systems will form hierarchical networks, where the systems have different coverage areas and bandwidth off

Natur TM. Glada grisar, vandrarkängor och ekologisk modernisering

Texten visar hur naturen kommersialiseras med speciellt fokus på livsmedel och friluftsliv. Den ekologiska moderniseringen tillåter naturen att tolkas och användas som en lustfylld arena, och detta håller på att utvecklas till en ny berättelse om natur och kultur. Denna väver samman njutning och estetik med ekologisk hållbarhet och etik på ett sätt som tidigare miljödiskurser inte haft möjlighet a

Texture compression of light maps using smooth profile functions

Light maps have long been a popular technique for visually rich real-time rendering in games. They typically contain smooth color gradients which current low bit rate texture compression techniques, such as DXT1 and ETC2, do not handle well. The application writer must therefore choose between doubling the bit rate by choosing a codec such as BC7, or accept the compression artifacts, neither of wh

Cognitive development in context: Learning to pay attention

A developing system must be able to learn new things without forgetting what it has learned before. It should be capable of reacting in different ways to the same stimuli in different contexts. Context sensitive reinforcement learning, which parallels some of the functions of the basal ganglia, is a learning algorithm that fulfills this requirement when the context is explicitly given. Here, we ex
